A/N: Hello, I'm actually braelynnway doing this story, as peacock1969 said I would. I do not know how to do this very well, but I think I can manage. This is my first fanfic so give me some credit. I've read more fanfics, so I think I can type it well enough. Blah blah blah... ON WITH THE STORY!

Chapter 1, prologue

Hiccup struggled to get out of the Vikings' grips. They kept his shoulders down and held him in headlock. He grabbed the arm of the Viking who held him in headlock and started digging his claws into his flesh, just enough to draw blood.

The Viking yelped in pain and pulled his arm back. Hiccup shook himself out of the other Vikings' grips and was just about to fly away; but Thor wasn't being nice to him today. The same Viking grabbed the back of his head and shoved it down in an uncomfortable position.

Stoick the vast came to him with a frown covering his face. He lifted Hiccup's head from under the chin to look him in the eyes. Hiccup jerked his head out of his grip and tried to bite at Stoick. Stoick pulled back and glared daggers at him. "Put him in the dungeon and chain him. I'll deal with him later," he said.

Hiccup's pupils went into thin slits. He curled his lip up, revealing his teeth, and growled at Stoick.

"What about the girl?" asked a Viking from behind Stoick. Hiccup's ears perked up when he heard Astrid's struggling breaths. His pupils rounded in worry.

Stoick turned around to see Astrid in the grips of two buff Vikings with anger in his eyes. "Put her with him until I can figure out her punishment," he asnswered.

Hiccup's eyes went back to slits, his ears went back, and he growled once again. "Don't do anything to her," he sneered causing one of the Vikings to slap him across the face. Tears stung his eyes but he refused to let them fall. He looked back at Stoick still with a scowl on his face. "She didn't do anything, so let her go. I'll take all the punishment," he said. "I brought her to this torment! She didn't do anything wrong! Take it out on me! Be mad at me! I deserve it, but please, just don't harm Astrid!" he continued, and yet, the same Viking slapped him again.

Astrid tried to run to him, but the Vikings kept strong grips on her. "Leave him alone!" she yelled.

"Take them to the dungeon...NOW!" Stoick commanded. The Vikings then started pulling them in the direction of the dungeon.

-This is me, Hiccup. I was once a young hatchling loved by many dragons. Now i know what you're thinking. 'How did this all happen?' Well, the answer lies fifteen years ago. Now, you think it started out all nice and dandy, but THINK AGAIN! This actually happens during a dragon raid on Berk (which I don't believe was them controlling their own minds because of one of my encounters with...you know what? How about you just find out)-
