Needing To Stand Tall
A/N My first How To Train Your Dragon novie fic and I'm looking forward to seeing it.
This is just something to tide me over until the movie and it's merch comes out and this was an idea I had yesterday after watching videos of it on Youtube but like my Princess and the Frog fic, it involves the second generation but I hope others enjoy.
It was a calm night on the island of Berk as a young twelve year old boy was taking another walk as his father was having another night flight on Toothless his dragon and the very first one their island's clan had accepted after Hiccup had befriended him.
The young boy was the son of the great Hiccup the famous dragon trainer of Berk as most of their clan had called him but sometimes he felt like he lived in his father's shadow as he sighed as he knew that dragons were now common in Berk thanks to his father but he wasn't very good at the things his peers were as he was like his father.
He sighed as he went to search for dragon eggs as now the kids of the island searched for drtagon eggs that they collected and raised the dragons as their own but he hadn't found one yet as they were rare but he had hope just like his father at his age as he knew his mother Astrid was busy making dinner but he hoped that he could find a dragon egg.
That way he could have his own dragon and show his Dad he was just as good as him.
He then was by the lake when he found something he'd been looking for.
It was a turquise egg as he smiled.
"Let's see who'll be a great dragon trainer like his father after all?" he thought.
He then went to his home as he saw Toothless land outside their home as Hiccup was leading the jet black scaled, razor sharped dragon into the stable as he was putting it to bed but hoped that Laias his son was okay as sometimes he was so distracted with Toothless, he forgot all about Laias sometimes but Astrid knew it was an accident.
She then saw Laias enter with a smile on his face as he headed to his room.
She had no idea he'd found a dragon egg.
Later that night, Laias was awoken by the sound of something cracking as his eyes opened and he saw it was his dragon egg as he was in excited awe but hoped that it would get along with Toothless but hoped that his parents wouldn't mind as they knew he'd been wanting his own dragon since he was little.
He then saw a small turquise scaled head peek out of the cracks as it looked cute as he smiled as it came out of the egg but Laias was thrilled as he couldn't wait to tell his father but Hiccup had a feeling this would happen as he knew that his son had been inspired by his stories about finding Toothless.
He knew this dragon would keep Laias busy..........
