Chapter 1: Prologue
I wrote this story with help of my little cousin.
Let me know what you think!
Everyone is maybe a bit alternate, just a warning.
Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third was talking to his mother Valka about the dragons in the Dragon Sancrutary.
Valka knelt down and took Toothless's prothestic tailfin in her hands. "Did Drago do this too?" she asked.
"Well.." Hiccup started. "...to be honest, I was the one who shot him down. But it's alright bud isn't it?"
He made Toothless recite his teeth before letting go. "You couldn't save all of me right? So... Hobbleleg!"
Hiccup held up his iron prothestic leg to show it to his mother as suddenly a loud roar was heard.
Tootless looked up too.
A purplish-black scaled dragon with deep purple eyes flew into the Sancrutary.
It was another Night Fury.
"Who is that?" Hiccup asked as he saw a woman on the back of the dragon, standing upon it.
The woman was skinny but pretty tall, having iron shoulderblades with spines and a long cape made of a light weight fabrics. Her boots were made of greenish-brown leather, just like the pants and the shirt of her armor. She was carrying a large wooden staff and an iron shield with the Night Fury logo on it. The woman's helmet was dark green and covered all of her face, only showing she had long black hair put in 3 tight braids.
The purplish Night Fury landed close to Hiccup and the woman jumped off of the dragon.
She took off her helmet, showing a woman's face which was egg-shaped without freckles. She had a small nose, thin reddish lips and normal blueish green eyes.
Valka walked up to the woman.
"Hiccup, I want you to meet Authum, she's a talentful Dragon Rider." she said.
"Hi." the woman named Authum said. "It's nice to meet you, I am Authum Valka Valhalla. And you are?"
Authum was very polite, Hiccup liked that.
"Hiccup Horrendous Haddock." Hiccup replied and smiled.
Authum looked at him and walked around him. "Whoa, you really look like Valka. You two are related or anything?" she asked.
"Authum, he's my son." Valka replied.
"You never told me you had a son." Authum said. "Well, I have to admit you don't look bad."
"Uhm, thanks?" Hiccup shyly said and blushed.
"Authum! Now you made him shy." Valka said.
"Sorry Valka." Authum playfully said.
"One more question, how do you know my mother?" Hiccup asked.
"Authum was brought here the same time as I was. She was only able to say her first name so I gave her surnames. I raised her, she's my apprentice." Valka said.
"That's completely the truth." Authum said. "Anyways, I'm going to make food for the 3 of us."
"I will let the dragons eat." Valka said. "You're acompanying me Hiccup?"
"Nah, I rather stay here. I want to get some information about that Bewilderbeast down there." Hiccup said.
"Of course." Valka said. "Cloudjumper! We're going for fish!"
With that said, Valka jumped on Cloudjumper and flew away, taking all dragons with her.
Hiccup looked at Authum's dragon, which lay with his own dragon on a pile of leaves.
"Authem." Hiccup said, looking in Authem's direction.
Authem turned around to him. "Yes?"
"What's your dragon's name?" Hiccup asked.
"Starlight. How about yours?" Authemn asked.
"His name is Toothless." Hiccup replied.
"Did you say your Night Fury was a he?" Authem asked. "Mine is a she."
"Could I help you with cooking? And how did you find her?" Hiccup asked.
"Sure you may help me. I'll tell you the story while we're busy with cooking." Authem said.
Hiccup listened to Authem's story of how she found Starlight.
Drago had clearly tried to kidnap the Night Fury until Authem jumped in the fight.
"I know it was a bit stupid to do, but I couldn't let him take Starlight." Authem said. "A powerful dragon in the hands of a wrong man is not the best combination."
"You just did what you thought what was the best to do." Hiccup said.
"Shall we go out flying after dinner together?" Authem asked while cutting the fish in pieces.
"Sure, sounds fun!" Hiccup replied. "Toothless, plasmablast!"
Toothless shot a purple blast to the wood Hiccup had collected in the sancrutary.
Authum lay the pieces fish on a metal plateau on the fire.
"Could you tell me something about Drago that you know?" Hiccup asked.
"Well, I know he's the Chief of an island called Aridell which is close to Outcast Island." Authum replied. "He's unmarried, no children, his sister Avala died 20 years ago during a dragon raid and his niece was kidnapped back then. I don't know her name anymore, and his brother-in-law died last year during an attack. That's all there is to say about Drago Bludvist. Oh, and his right arm was completely crushed from his body."
"I never heard of an island named Aridell and dad also never spoke about it." Hiccup said. "But I know the way to Outcast Island, you said it was close to there?"
"Yes, but the Island is very infamous, almost no one knows about it. Except for the Outcasts, Trader Johann and the indigenious people then." Authum replied.
"Care to check it out?" Hiccup asked.
"Why not?" Authum asked and smiled.
The cutted pieces of fish started to get another colour.
And they heard loud dragon roars.
"Yup, Valka is home from feedingtime." Authum said and checked the fish. "And she's right on time!"
Valka came into the cave where Hiccup and Authum were. "Is dinner ready?" she asked.
"Yup, you're right on time!" Authum replied as she took the metal plateau from the fire with her leather gloves.
"Great!" Valka said.
"Mom?" Hiccup started. "May Authum and I go out flying right after dinner? Just looking around this place."
"Of course son, but be careful for any Dragon Hunters!" Valka warned.
"We will." Authum said as she put down the metal plateau on the crafted wooden table.
Good start or not?
Tell me what you think!
