Chapter 1: Prologue
This story is from Hiccup's POV and starts during the series.
Elements from the 1st movie are mentioned.
Let me know what you think!
I walked into my house when I saw my dad trying to put on the Cermonial Belt with Gobber's help.
"Why are you putting that on?" I asked.
"The new Chief of Bezerk is stopping by today." my dad replied.
'Great, Dagur is paying a visit.' I thought. "Well, I'm getting the Dragons from the Island."
"Better do that. I don't want war because of all this." my dad said.
I left the house, walking back to the Dragon Arena where my friends still were.
"Hey guys, we need to get the dragons off the Island, the Chief of Bezerk is coming today." I told them.
"Where are we waiting for?" Snotlout asked and jumped in the saddle of his dragon Hookfang, a Monsterous Nightmare.
We all got in our saddles and gathered the dragons on Berk, leading them to Dragon Island where they had to stay until the Bezerkers would leave.
My dragon, Toothless, was not really happy with the news they all had to leave.
"I know bud, but's it's only for today, tomorrow you'll all be back on Berk." I told him.
Toothless groaned.
Suddenly, a dragon broke out of formation.
It was dad's Thunderdrum Thornado.
"I'm going after him!" I called and followed Thornado.
Thornado flew closely to the water.
Then I saw ships.
It were Bezerkian ships.
There were so many ships, lead by a very big one.
That had to be the ship of the Chief.
"Pull up!" I called to Toothless and changed the position of the prothestic tailfin.
Toothless pulled up to the sky, disappearing into the clouds.
"Great, now we lost Thornado. I need to tell my father." I mumbled and flew back to Berk, leaving Toothless in the forest.
I ran to the pier, seeing my dad standing there with Gobber, waiting for the new Bezerkian Chief to arrive.
"Dad!" I called. "Bad news!"
"What is it son?" my dad asked.
"Thornado, he escaped." I told.
"That's no good." my dad said and ran with his fingers through his long red beard.
"What can we do?" I asked.
"Just be sure Thornado doesn't get seen by any Bezerker." my dad replied.
"The Bezerkian ships are in sight!" Gobber called and pointed with his hook (he lost his right hand once during battle) at the fleet of Bezerkian ships, all having the same black sails with the white symbol of the Skrill, a very dangerous dragon, on it.
The largest ship came in first.
A Bezerkian warrior dropped the heavy anker while another dropped the walking plank.
A strong Bezerkian man, obviously the second-in-command, spread his arms.
"Civilians of the village of Berk, I present you our new Chief..." the Bezerker started.
Hiccup saw a small glimpse of a satin purple cape.
"...Chief Halla the Honest!" the Bezerker finished and stepped out of their sight.
The Chief of Bezerk was a girl!
Chief Halla the Honest was standing there, brave and tall.
Her hair was long and black, nicely put in a braid falling down her left shoulder. Her eyes were deep dark brown, showing honestness and bravery.
Chief Halla wore a red dress with a sweetheart neckline with some dark red crystals on the top, her arms, shoulders and a piece of her neck were covered with black satin, that neckline was a turtleneck. Her shoulders were also covered by the purple cape she wore, which had a train of 4 feet long. The cape was holded together by a red stone functionating as a button.
"Chief Stoick." Chief Halla politely started. "By seeing your face I guess you didn't expect a girl to be the new Chief."
"You're right about that." my dad said, still a bit stunned. "But I guess that's normal. I had expected Dagur actually, why isn't he the Chief?"
"My brother Dagur? He went crazy, he's very bloodthirsty and now hunts for dragons on the islands around Bezerk. He said he didn't want to do these 'stupid' political things." Chief Halla replied. "Didn't have the time too, actually."
I looked at Halla, how she walked out of her ship upon the pier of Berk, greeting my father so polite.
'Okay, this is weird. Dagur's sister is the Chief of Bezerk? Could it get more crazier?' I asked myself.
"Hiccup." my dad said. "Better go to the Training Ring."
"Sure dad." I said and went away, but not without catching a smile from Chief Halla the Honest of Bezerk.
And that smile was not just a polite smile.
With my head confused, I walked to the Dragon Arena, where my friends waited for me.
