6:00 am, most of the world is dark peaceful and quiet, but not Berk. Everyone from age seven and up are awake and active. As Hiccup stepped out into the early morning, the sky still dark and hazy. People bustling around all different directions as Hiccup started his walk to the blacksmith's hut. When he got there Gobber was already m thataneuvering around, managing the group of Vikings that were already starting to form a crowd. Hiccup pushed his way through the Vikings to get to the front. Then walked over to his work desk, he had to shuffle all the old sketches of Toothless's new tail out of the way.
Gobber walked over to the table next to Hiccup and said in his usual raspy voice, "You finished that tail 'bout a month ago. Yet you still haven't cleaned that up." Gesturing to his desk.
"Ya but I'm still doing a little Adjusting here and there." ,Hiccup replied.
The sun had risen now bringing light to the whole village, but not the heat. Yet sunny and dry, with no snow in sight, it was still as freezing as ever. Which you would think everyone on Berk would be used to by now. Yet people were still walking around at 5:00 in the evening with fur coats and winter boats.
Hiccup climbed up the large stone steps to his house, because Hiccup was the chief, their house was on the highest hill overlooking the village. Toothless just now seeing him waddled up excitedly to Hiccup like a full grown vicious, deadly, and scaly dog.
Hiccup bent down slightly to scratch his head as Toothless bumped his snout into Hiccups side, "Hey Toothless!" Hiccup went around to the side of the house and grabbed one of the remaining baskets filled with raw fish. Picking it up by the leather strap. Hiccup carried it out to the front, setting it down and pushed it over so most of the fish fell out. Toothless hurriedly started to scarf down the fish digging his head inside the basket at times. Then hiccup rushed inside to drop off his pack with all his sketches inside. He had promised Astrid he would meet up with her before dark and they would go for a fly together. As Hiccup came outside to see Toothless had emptied the woven basket. He picked it up and put it back against the side of the house before walking back over to Toothless. The dark dragon looked back at him expectantly.
"Alright buddy." ,Hiccup said as he pushed himself up into the saddle, clicking his prothstetic into place. It had been about two months since his battle with Drago Bloodfist. And the village still needed to be fixed up completely but that wasn't one of his worries at the moment. As Hiccup pressed down on his prothstetic making Toothless's tail click outward into place and take off into the sky. Hiccup always loved to fly especially with Toothless, how smooth it felt with the cool wind hitting his face. He saw Astrid and her dragon Stormfly resting by the cove and with an adjustment to his prothstetic Toothless's tail flicked out and glided them down towards them, leaning smoothly beside them.
Astrid was looking out across the sea as she spoke a soft smile crept on her face, "your late."
"Gobber needed me to stay for an extra fifteen minutes to rap up, sorry." Hiccup apologized looking at her with hope that he was off the hook.
She slowly turned her head to face him with a suspicious yet joyful expression on her face, "Don't worry, I just won't feel as bad when I beat you to the training arena." Then she immediately took off. Hiccup shook his head and took off after her.
Astrid took a quick glance behind her to see Hiccup looking back at her with his goofy lopsided grin that she always loved. She then threw her head back and laughed before pushing Stormfly further, the arena in sight. Astrid was 30 feet away from touching the concrete flooring of the arena when a black blur crossed her vision out of the corner of her eye. Before seeing Hiccup and Toothless smoothly land down before her. Then landed herself and Stormfly next to Hiccup as he dismounted from Toothless. Across from them they could see the others of their group, Fishlegs, Ruffnut, Tuffnut, and Snotlout.
Snotlout was the first to acknowledge them, "Well, well, well, look who just dropped in."
"Technically, they landed, if they dropped they would probably be in some kind of pain at the moment." ,Fishlegs added hesitantly. They all had a weapon in there hands, obvious that they had been sparring.
The sun started to go down as Hiccup and Astrid took off back into the sky while the other Vikings raked up there weapons. They didn't race this time, just glided through the air smoothly, enjoying each other's company high up in the clouds. It was always colder up in the sky, but Hiccup never felt it especially when Astrid was flying with him. He turned his head to glance at her, the wind was blowing her hair back, she had her head raised to the sky, eyes closed feeling the wind on her face. They came around the island once more the village in sight, landing next to Hiccup's house.
"Are you gonna be at the town meeting tomorrow to discuss the hunting trip?" Hiccup asked as the two dismounted. The dragons walking back over to the side of the house to wrestle.
Astrid walked over to him, "Ya, I'm going with after all, and it's a pretty big deal. First one since the snow melted."
"Great so I'll meet you there." He lightly kissed Astrid on the cheek before calling Toothless over at about the same time Stormfly saw that Astrid was ready to go.
On her way down the hill with Stormfly right beside her she turned her head back and shouted, "Bye, Hiccup!" And waved. In return Hiccup looked back at her with a loving smile on his face and waved back at her before heading inside.
