'Hello' = Narration/Etc
'Hello' = Thoughts


My name is Hiccup, I know... It's a horrible name, but that's what I'm stuck with. I live on the small island of Berk, It's not much, but it's home. For about 300 Years? Or was it 400? I lost count... Well, we've been at war with creatures known as Dragons. Over these Years we've captured many of these 'Dragons'. And for some reason... I can understand, no one really believes I can, but... I can hear them... talking...


Hiccup's POV

"Ey! Hiccup!" In case your wondering, That's Gobber... I've been his apprentice since I was little... He's basically the only Family I have... "Yeah?" "We should be good for the day. Go get some rest." "Okay." I finish what I'm working on and start walking back home, I walk back Snotlout and the and Twins and get some pretty nasty looks... Snotlout has always picked on me... "Hey, Useless!" I ignore him and run home.

I arrive home and open the door, walking in and closing it. The first thing I see is dad, looking kind of upset for some reason... I try to sneak upstairs but, he hears me. "Son..." "Err, hi Dad..." "Hiccup, I need to talk to yo-" Just at that, someone has to yell... "DRAGONS!" Dad Completely forgets about what he was gonna say, and runs outside... Not even caring about the Monstrous Nightmare landing right by our door, I hurry and close the door... "Just great... Dragons..."

I run outside, heading for the forge to assist Gobber. "Well, This is just great... Right after I leave, Dragons attack... Things cant get much worse..." And Odin decides to screw with me, because I hear something everyone hasn't heard in over 3 Years... A Nightfury... "NIGHTFURY!" I look up to see a catapult tower blown to bits. "Hiccup! Get over here!" I keep running to the Forge, Grabbing some weapons and starting to get to work on fixing them.

Gobber decides it's time for him to join the fight... So I take this chance and take a Bola Shooter, I wheel it up onto a hill and wait for something to shoot at. "Please... Let me shoot something..." I hear a familiar Whistling, I take aim, And I fire. I hear a Dragon Roar and I see the nightfury fall out of the sky. "Yes! I DID IT!" (The Monstrous Nightmare doesn't attack hiccup in this) 'Dad's gonna be So proud... I'm finally gonna be one of them...'

About Half an Hour later, I walk up and explain to dad. He starts to laugh, I finally think Im going to be a Viking, like my dad... But... It's the Complete opposite... "You? Hit a Nightfury? Son... No one's ever hit a night fury, So that means you you never will..." Well, There we go... No one Listens to me... As usual... Probably in the Morning I'll go out and check the woods for it...


A Few Weeks Later

Hiccup's POV

It's been a Few Weeks since I found Toothless, at first he didn't trust me... (Toothless didn't Lose his tail fin) But, I soon gained his trust, and we became good Friends... The Dragon Training had to be Cancelled due to Gobber being injured in a dragon raid... That's good for me... since I don't have to kill any Dragons...

I walk into the cove, Unbeknownst to me... Astrid's watching me... "Toothless! I got you some Fish, Cod, and Salmon." Toothless Comes Bounding out, Very happy to see me... "Fish?! COD!?, AND SALMON?!" I sigh, "You only care about the Fish?" "Well... No... Maybe..."

Astrid's POV

"I knew he was up to Something... Hehe, He'll pay the price for siding with the enemy..." I get up and run away to warn the chief 'He's Probably gonna kill us all off one by one... But I wont let that happen..' I Run into the Grand and up to Stoick "Chief! I just saw Hiccup with a Nightfury!" He Stands up Immediately "What?! Is he hurt?" "No, Chief, He's sided with it..." I see Stoick's eyes go red with hate "Gather Everyone... If He's sided with that Nightfury, Then We'll kill them both..."

Hiccup's POV

"Okay... All set for the Morning flig-" I hear a ton of Battlecrys, and then in a split second, about 11 Vikings jump into the Cove and charge me. Toothless Acts on Instinct, "Intruders!" He Grabs me and Flies up in the blink of an Eye, A Few Axes and Bolas are thrown, But Toothless Dodges them quickly. He slings me onto his back, Growling at the Vikings. Dad walks up, Eyes Red with Hatred and Anger... Expected... "Your a Traitor to your own Village, Hiccup!"

"And What Choice did I have, No one except Gobber cared for me! I'm Never coming back here!" At That Toothless flies off, Jolting me back a bit. "Could you be a little less Fast, I almost fell off" "Sorry... Where to now?" "Somewhere far away..."
