Have you ever read a book or watched a movie that you thought would be cool to see in real life but you know that it was to absurd to ever happen? Well let me tell you something, every book, movie, or even fanfiction that has ever existed does exist in reality. Not in our reality though, there are infinite planes of existence. Don't ask me how it works I just go with the flow and go where I'm told.

Now I bet you're wondering how I know about all this right? Well I was sucked into this mess for the simple fact that I was apparently the man for the job, still have no idea why. Now I bet you're wondering what this job I'm talking about is. Well I was given a rather simple task… protect the How to Train your Dragon universe. It's a pain, but I know what I do helps people, mostly Hiccup and Toothless though.

Now what am I protecting them from? Well if I told you then I would be spoiling it for you. Instead I'll tell you my story, from beginning to end of course, and let you see for yourself. So this is a story of me and my struggles.


"Come on Dave they're waiting on you!" I heard my mom call up to me "I'll be down in a minute!" I shouted back down shoving the last of my clothes into my bag. I quickly grabbed a couple of books, a light, a knife, and a little survival kit. I zipped up my bag and checked to see if I had everything and I did.

I ran down the stairs to see my mom outside talking with my friend's dad. I grabbed a 12 pack of soda and a bag of chips before walking out to meet them "Took ya long enough you slow poke." I heard my friend Cole say to me.

I put my stuff in the back of their suv and turned to him "Oh, would you rather I run around naked then?" I replied with a slight smirk. He rolled his eyes "Either way, have you got all of your stuff?" I nodded "Yep, and I got refreshments." I told him as I threw him a Coke.

I walked over to my mom who was still talking to John, Cole's dad "I'll see you in a couple of weeks mom." I told her as I gave her a hug. She kissed me quick before me go "Enjoy your trip." I smiled and nodded "I will, Love you." I told her as I packed myself in the back with Cole.

"We should get to the plot around 9:00 so prepare to set up in the dark." John said as he got in. I nodded showing I heard him. I rolled down my window as we left and waved goodbye to my mom as we left. When we got out of eyesight I pulled out one of the books I had and started to read "What am I not good enough company?" Cole said next to me sounding fake offended. I rolled my eyes "The worst."

We stopped once for the bathroom and food half way then we were back on the road. I put my book away at that point and tried to sleep "Oh you can't leave me hanging here." I cracked open an eye "After the two weeks… I'll probably want to kill you." I muttered out now starting to get tired "Whatever." I thanked god that he left me alone.

I was rudely awakened by a punch from Cole. I opened my eyes quickly and glared at him "We're here." I looked outside and sure as hell we were finally at the plot. It was on a lake which made it instantly better because of my love of fishing. The plot was owned by Cole's uncle that said we could camp out there for a couple of weeks which was cool. It was in northern Minnesota which meant that no one would bother us with woods all around us.

It was just at sunset so we tried our best to get the three tents set up while it was light out. Of course we had to put up 2 in the dark though. When we finished John assigned us tents and told us to get our stuff. I brought my duffle bag with all my stuff to my tent and set up my bed which consisted of a sleeping bag and a pillow "Night to ya boys." I heard John say from his tent. I got in and snuggled into my bag 'This is going to be fun.' I thought before I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

The Next Day

I woke up early and decided I wanted to cast a line into the lake. I went to the suv and pulled out my rod and tackle box before walking over to the lake. I set myself up with a twister before casting away. After about thirty minutes I started to catch a couple fish. I put them on a stringer and kept fishing.

Some time passed and I took a peek at my watch to check the time. It was about 8 when I heard the other two get up "Dave, come help us unload the rest of the stuff." I quickly put my rod away and went over to help them. He brought a collapsible table, a cooler, and a few other things that would make life easier.

After we got our mess situated we decided to make some breakfast. The problem is that we had no wood for the fire "You two go that way and collect any stick or logs you can get." John told us. We nodded and ran out into the forest. We found 4 logs and John found 3. We set up the fire pit. After it was lit Cole and I went out searching for more wood.

We had a grate that went over the fire and a pan to cook. After a couple minutes of waiting for the pan to heat up we pulled out some bacon from the cooler and tossed it in the pan. It took about 10 minutes before we ate.

After breakfast we decided to go out exploring the area to look for even more wood for the night. We did this for an hour or so until we had a good supply of wood. After getting wood we decided to go swimming. John stayed ashore and watched us until we got done. We got out we put on clean, dry clothes and got out a deck of cards.

We got out a battery powered radio and put it on the table while we played. Still playing cards we cooked hotdogs over the fire for supper. We continued to play until it got dark and that's when the radio went off "Severe thunderstorms are expected to be going into the area tonight and it is advised to stay indoors until it passes."

"Of course we get a freakin thunderstorm on our first day." I mutter to myself a little aggravated. I heard Cole groan next to me "It will be fine, I pulled up the radar and we should only get the edge of it." John said from across the table looking at his phone. I sighed out in relief, we wouldn't have to leave early.

We packed up the cards and put away anything that could be ruined in the rain "Ok, just stay in your tents and if it gets too cold or windy just go in the car." He told us before going into his tent. I went into mine and pulled out a little lamp with a book. I kept the light dim so I didn't keep the other two up. I read for about 30 minutes until I decided I needed some sleep.

Till this day I still have no idea how long I was asleep until I heard it "David." I opened my eyes slowly yawning. I rubbed my eyes and looked around, it was still dark 'Must've been my imagination.' I thought before laying my head back down "Oh David." Ok that' real. I hopped out of my sleeping bag "Cole I swear on god's green earth if that's you…" I said annoyed as I opened my door.

I looked around and saw no one. I zipped back up the door and went back to my bed "Dave." I stood back up now worried. That wasn't Cole or John's voice "W-who's there?" I called out as I opened my tent back up. When I didn't hear a response I went back in and grabbed my knife putting it on my belt sheath.

I went out and looked around to try and find the voice. I couldn't find it and went back to my tent now scared that someone was out here. As I grabbed the zipper I heard a cough behind me "Hello David." I spun around to see a man standing across from the fire pit. I took a step back and tripped over the tent spike.

I landed still keeping an eye on the man "W-who are you?" I asked as I stood up. I watched as the man shrugged "I have many names Loptr, Hveorungr… but you probably know me as Loki." He said "Loki… as in the nordic god?" I said not believing this crazy guy. He looked back over to me "The one and only err… at least here…. I think." Yep he's crazy.

"Ok then… Loki… why are you here?" I asked looking for weapons on the man "Are you cold?" He asked me to which I shook my head no "Hmm, I'm cold." He looked down at the fire pit and snapped his fingers. I yelped in fear as flames engulfed the wood in there "Ahh that's more like it." I began to back up a little "How did you do that?!" I said looking at the fire and back to him.

He rolled his eyes "I'm a god, I can literally do what I want." I stared at the man or... god. I had no idea what to think "S-so what are you doing here with me and aren't you an evil god?" I asked him. He facepalmed "Marvel… the nerve…" He started muttering to himself. He shook his head "No I'm not bad well… most of the time, after all I do like to have fun." He said with a grin.

Ok, so a literal god is standing in front of me "Either way I'm here for you Dave." He said becoming serious looking at me "Me?" I asked weakly. He nodded and looked up when he heard thunder "Blast, I'll have to make this quick I have less time than I thought. You are being chosen for a task that you will learn of later." I threw my hands up "That tells me a lot."

He raised his hand "Shut up, you are being given an important task but I need you to learn first." Now I was getting confused "Learn of what?" I asked. I nearly jumped out of my skin when a lightning bolt hit nearby "Damn…" I blinked and he was next to me "What the…?"

He grabbed my arm and looked at me "I'll come back to find you, but until then stay out of trouble." I was about to ask what he meant until a man came running out of the forest at us. Loki threw something at the man and he exploded into black smoke "Time for you to go." He said before I felt like my entire being was being shaken. I started to feel sick until all of the colors disappeared from my vision and everything went black.

All of a sudden I found myself on the ground, in a forest, in the daytime. I stared at the ground for a couple of seconds feeling sick before standing up and looking around. All I could see around was trees and rocks, I was in a forest 'Ok what… the… Hell!' I thought looking around. I looked around hoping to find the campground "COLE… JOHN!" I hollered out.

I got no reply and I sat on a rock near by "What is going on?" I muttered to myself trying to think of the god. I had no idea what to think, what could I think? I groaned and put my head in my hands. I looked up when I heard voices "I think I heard it over here."

I stood up excited, maybe these people had a phone. I walked to the voices and found them. A girl and two men. The girl had black hair and was about 5'7. The two men both had blond hair with a beard and were about 6'0. I walked out to meet them "Hello, can you help me?" I asked them. They turned around and the girl aimed a bow at me. I raised my hand up "Whoa whoa, I mean no harm." I squeaked out while getting part of my body behind a tree.

She lowered the bow "Who are you?" I lowered my hands and sighed in relief as I came out from behind the tree "My name's Dave and I was wondering if any of you have a phone I could use?" I asked hopefully. They all looked confused "What's a phone?" One of the men asked. I clenched my fists and groaned "Oh come on give me a break." I muttered.

"How did you get here?" The girl asked. I shrugged and laughed "I have absolutely no idea, I wish I did." I told them truthfully. I mean I know that Loki sent me here but I had no idea how. The little group talked with each other and they turned back to me "You can come back with us to our village and we can figure out things there." I thanked them and started to follow them back to their… wait village "Um did you say village?" I asked them. She looked at me funny "Yes… why?" I shook my head "No reason." She shrugged and I continued to follow them.

When we got there I noticed that there was a large body of water next to the village "Hey what lake is that?" I asked them hoping maybe I could find out where I was. They started laughing "Lake… good one. Boy that's the sea." I looked out at it and now felt truly lost 'Where am I?'

They brought me to a big house and knocked on the door. A big man opened the door and looked at us "Yes?" One of the two guys stepped up "Uhh chief, we found this boy out in the woods while we were hunting. He claims to have no memory of how he got here." He looked down at me.

I raised my hand for a handshake "My name's Dave sir." He looked at me weird before shaking my hand "So, where do you come from then?" He asked me while bringing me into what I assume to be his home "Minnesota sir." I told him looking at the axes and shields on the walls.

"Never heard of it." He said pouring a drink. He offered it to me and I accepted not having anything to drink in a while. When I took a drink I coughed a little at the taste of alcohol. I took another drink though to not be rude, and in all honesty it did taste rather good after the first sip "So you say you don't know how you got here?" He asked me.

I nodded "That's correct, the last place I remember being at, was with some friends and then a bad storm hit us. I woke up in the forest having no idea where I am." I told him hoping that my story didn't sound too shady. He took a drink and wiped his face "The name is Asger and I can help you find your way home if you'd like but I have no idea where you even come from." He told me.

I grabbed my hair, Loki said he'd be back but I'm not how sure how true that was "Thank you, but I think I might be around for awhile." He nodded "What was your job at your home?" I scratched the back of my head "I was a err… well used to make things in my forge and sell them but…" He cut me off "Good Greil said he needed help in the smithy."

"What?" I asked confused "You can work in the town smithy if you want, our current blacksmith is starting to get overwhelmed." These people actually have a blacksmith… wow. I've only seen a select few of blacksmiths… ever. But why would they need a blacksmith? Then I realized this was all so old fashioned… did Loki send me back in time? After all he's a god and he could do whatever we wants like he said.

"Thank you si… Asger." Then I realized something "Ahh, do you have a motel or inn for me to stay?" I asked him knowing that whatever was happening to me wasn't going to end soon "Aye we do, how much money have you got?" I pulled out my wallet and looked in it "Uh… I've got about fifty dollars will that be a good enough?" I said pulling out the fifty.

He looked at the bill confused "What's that?" I looked down at the bill "Money?" I tried. He shook his head "I don't know what your village uses as money but we use good old gold." He said pulling out a couple gold coins. My mouth went into a line as I realized that I was now completely broke. I now literally have nowhere to stay "So how well does the smithy pay?" I asked him now knowing that I had no money. He shrugged "A couple gold pieces a day I believe." I nodded "Thank you for your hospitality." I told him as I stood up.

He got up with me and followed me to the door "I'll have my daughter Ase show you around." I thanked him and followed him outside. The little group of people were waiting outside still "Ase, I want you to show Dave here around the village. He'll be staying with the Spearheads for a while until he finds his way back home." The girl came over and told me to follow her.

So this was his daughter then. Funny what you learn about people. I followed her around and she showed me the docks, the market, housing, and finally she brought me to the smithy. When we stopped out front she turned to me "Anything else you need?" She asked me. I thought for a second "Ya, I kinda don't have any money, do you know somewhere I could stay?" She shrugged "No idea." I sighed and she walked off towards the docks.

I turned around and went to the smithy. Inside was a big looking guy with long black hair and a handlebar looking mustache "Are you Greil?" I asked hm. He set down his hammer and walked up to the front "Aye that's me. What do ye need?" He asked wiping sweat off of his head "I'm uh… asking for a job." I told him.

"You're a blacksmith?" I nodded my head "To an extent yes… I know basics." I told him truthfully. He rubbed his chin and looked behind him at a pile of weapons. He grumbled to himself before sighing "Do ya at least know how to sharpen?" I nodded quickly "Yes, both swords and knifes."

He walked around the little counter and stuck out his hand "Then I think you've got a job." I smiled and shook his hand "You start now. Sharpen these swords over here." He said pointing at some swords. I took a deep breath before getting to it. As I was walking over to the pile my mind was still blown that they needed a blacksmith. My blacksmithing skills were a hobby more than a job.

I sharpened a bunch of swords and axes over the course of the next few hours until it was dark "I guess we've done enough for today." Greil told me putting out the forge. I put up the apron that he gave me and turned to him "After some time, could you teach me how to create swords and axes?" I asked him "Eh, if you spend enough time in here you'll pick it up."

Then I realized my next problem "Um… do you know of a place I could stay until I get some money?" I asked him. He just looked at me "Don't you have any money?" I shook my head no. He grumbled a bit "I guess you could take the back room in the forge. It has a bed." I sighed out in relief "Oh thank you, I'll be more than glad to take it." He led me to the back and it was a small room with a bed "Consider it a bonus for being my worker." I nodded and thanked him.

He left and I hopped onto the bed. It wasn't very comfortable but it had a pillow and a blanket so I couldn't complain. I turned over covering myself with the blanket 'So this is my new life… god I hope this is over quickly' I thought before closing my eyes.

One thing that I now know for sure, is that this had only just begun.
