A/N: Hello! This is my first time writing a Brave/HTTYD fan fic so beware. I'm also not good with writing accents but if you have tips, feel free to put them in the comments. I absolutely love this pairing it was just that I needed an idea for a story to put them in. Anyway, let's continue on with the story!
Chapter 1: Ancient Story
Third Person's P.O.V.
Two clans have been at war for a very long time, the Viking village on Berk and the DunBroch. The two only talk when it comes to trading and the only ones who talk about trading are the two clan leaders. Guards are present from both clans in case things get out of hand.
The war started when the Vikings were looking for a home to settle on. They had been on boats for many months when they came across the highlands where the Scottish had already settled so the Viking leader went to ask the clan leader if they could stay. The clan leader was a nice guy as long as you followed his orders so he divided the island in half, the left side for them and the right for the Vikings. The Vikings were very thankful and he said he would let them stay as long as they stayed in their boundaries. The Vikings agreed and set up to building their village right away. The Vikings and the clan, which they found out was the DunBroch clan, traded every so often and actually became great friends.
It was two months after the Vikings had settled that one greedy old man found out the DunBroches had a lot of gold hidden away in their castle. His name was Mushroom. Mushroom gathered up two other greedy people and told them to break into the castle and get the gold. The two were a little afraid of going over the boundary but Mushroom reminded them of the gold and they forgot the fear. The two Vikings were in the gold room, after sneaking past the sleeping guards, when one tripped and caused a loud clatter that woke the guards. They captured the two Vikings and sent them to the throne room where the clan leader was waiting. He was angry that the Vikings broke their promise and tried to steal his gold. He sent most of his men to attack the Viking village.
During the time when the two greedy Vikings had left, two townsfolk of the DunBroch clan had snuck into the Viking village. They had heard that the Vikings had a lot of fur which would make the two townsfolk very rich if they sold it. They had just gotten to the shed with the fur when two Vikings patrolling the area saw them. The two Vikings snuck up on them and captured them, then took them to the Viking leader. He was also angry and sent most of him and most of his people out to attack the DunBroch leader.
They met up at the boundary line and almost attacked each other but the two leaders ordered them to stop.
"Why are you here, Acair?" the Viking leader asked.
"I'm askin' the same question, Gunnar."
"Two of your people tried to steal our fur," Gunnar growled angrily.
"Well, two of yers tried to steal our gold," Acair growled back," I set up one rule and ye break it. I want ye and yer people to leave by dawn or we will use force."
There were a lot of gasps on the Vikings' side but Gunnar nodded.
"We will be gone by dawn Acair. When we do find a place to stay though, I'd like to continue trade with you."
"Alright, as long as ye aren't on the island anymore."
"Deal."
The two shook hands and left back to their villages. Gunnar gave orders to pack up what they came with, plenty of food and water, and to get on the boats before dawn. The Vikings did as they were told this time. Gunnar found out who the two were that had tried to steal from Acair and that they were still at Acair's. A messenger hawk came with a letter for Gunnar. He took it and it said that he could kill the two who had tried to steal from him. Gunnar wrote on another piece of paper that Acair could also kill the two Vikings. He didn't need two greedy Vikings in his village. The two people from DunBroch were placed in the center of the village with their hands behind their backs. Gunnar easily hacked their heads off with his axe and they left, leaving the two bodies to the buzzards. Mushroom was disappointed that he didn't get some gold but he hid it easily so nobody would question him.
One day after leaving the Scottish highlands, they found another island that had nobody on it so they claimed it as their home. When they were trying to come up with a name for it, a woman went into labor. She gave birth to a son that she named Berk.
"This is the first baby to be born on this island. We shall name the island after him, Berk," Gunnar said.
The Vikings still live on Berk till this day. They have not left but they have encountered a slight pest problem. Dragons.
A/N: I wrote this to explain why the two clans don't like each other and I'm also not sure how Berk got its name so I came up with a reason. Remember, if you have any tips on accents for me, feel free to put them in comments or you can just comment how you thought this chapter was. You can also favorite and/or follow this story. Bye!
