1. Little Intro

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III has lived nearly seventeen years of life. In the span of those years, he's moved twelve times. Are you sure? Well yeah, I know how to count. Five of those years his mother was alive. Then a tragic accident left Hiccup in the sole care of his father, Stoick Haddock. Berk was where he had been born. That much he knew. Over every, single, move his father put him through, it wasn't until he reached sixteen years old that Berk was the city in which the father finally decided to plant roots. At least, that was what he claimed. In Hiccup's eyes, the number was too large for him to believe his father's words. Two years of high school left, and it was to be assumed that they would be spent on the chilly, ever-snowy Isle of Berk.

After years of being victimized at each school he attended, Hiccup was determined to keep a low profile at Berk High. No bullies this time, just try not to call too much attention to yourself. Too bad the gods weren't in the mood to grant his wishes. His past is intent preying upon him, deciding that Berk was perfect place to come back into the light. Someone to find out his leg, someone to find out about the many moves, someone to find out about his interest in dragons. An experience, unlike anything he has ever faced.

However, like all good things that came to him, there was always something to drag him back down into the pit of despair. A dormant secret, tied into his family history, was ultimately brought into the light when Hiccup settles on Berk. A secret tied with guilt and tears, and it all goes downhill from there. He discovered what his father truly did those long stretch of years, and finds he has a gift that had been nonexistent for centuries. Brought back, because the dragons had returned. Hiccup Haddock III was the only one who could save the dragons from being driven to extinction for a second time. At the sake of his own life, he consents to his father's wishes, and embraces the gift that had singled him out on the Isle of Berk.
