How to train your dragon Race to the edge Fanfiction
This changes everything
I DO NOT OWN HTTYD!
Takes place after race to the edge season 4.I'm just gonna imagine Viggo died…I might let Krogan appear into this story me know if you want that.
Description: After the defeat of Viggo and the destruction of the edge by the giant vulcano the dragonriders are forced to return to Berk and many of them quickly go back tot heir jobs (and to worshipping the god Loki in the twins' case…). Hiccup once again finds himself looking for new dragon species he can not find and starts to give up all hope when a strange letter from a mysterious dragonriding college in China changes everything.
This is an idea I have been thinking of a very long time but I never had the courage to place is my first ever fanfiction and English is not my original language so…sorry for possible spelling mistakes,I'm trying my are no ships in here that haven't been officially made canon in the series/movies (Feather/Hiccstrid) and I will not focus on the will appear once or twice somewhere in the story when I find it neccesary but even if you request it:I will NOT do those long,romantic some Toothless/Hiccup bonding since I love their friendship and mayby little Hiccup and Stoick father son moments,but nothing too dramatic. I decided to let the college be in China since they worship dragons and it makes sense in my head. I've done a bit of research about chinese culture and their view on dragons but a lot of this could be stereotyped. So Chinese people: Please don't be offended,this is just a story. And just assume everyone speaks English in this fanfic.I'm too lazy to work with different languages. Anyways,let's start the story shall we?
First chapter: searching for more
Nothing…Hiccup had been searching for new dragon species for months but so far he found nothing. It had been three months since Viggo's defeat and Hiccup would not say it out loud but he was actually missing the all the action and adventure. Now he was sitting on a seastack thinking about everything while Toothless was eating some fish behind him. Or so he thought untill he felt a big, scaly nose nudge his hand and looked right into the concerned eyes of his best friend.''I'm fine bud. It's just…this can't be it right? There has to be more…'' Hiccup looked at the sky which was slowly darkening and stars started to appear. ''It's getting dark. What do you think bud? Time to go home?'' Toothless turned around so Hiccup could climb on his back as a sign it was indeed ready to go. Hiccup climbed on his back and together they flew back home. The way home was pretty uneventful. By the time they reached Berk it was already dark and stars were glowing bright in the sky. It would have been a nice evening if he wasn't feeling so miserable. Hiccup opened the door to his house. He didn't see his father in there and didn't hear his father's snores coming from the small bedroom in the back which meant he was probably somewhere outside in the village. Being the chief ofcourse kept him busy almost the entire day. He walked inside and up the stairs tot he loft where he slept, being tired from the day already. Hiccup climbed into his bed while Toothless laid down on his rock, after heating it like always, and fell asleep.
The next morning Hiccup woke up from Toothless putting his head on his chest,staring right into Hiccup's eyes. Not the most pleasant way to walked downstairs and out of the door, ready for their morning flight when he was greeted by a very unusual sight. In the distance he saw people crowding around something. It had to be very interesting since, Hiccup noticed ,almost the entire village was there! Astrid already came running towards him. '' Uh Hiccup, you need to see this''. Hiccup frowned as Astrid pulled him towards the crowd, all the way to the front so he could see what they were al lso excited about. In the middle of the crowd there was a man with long black hair tied into a ponytail and some unusual red kind of robes. He had a long moustache which kinda reminded Hiccup of a thin, black rope which was put on his upper lip. But what was more interesting than the man was a dragon he had never seen before. It reminded him of a Slitherwing dragon. It was red and snake-like with two tentacles on the sides of his nose which was almost perfectly resembling the man's moustache but instead of black, they were yellow. It's scales were red. ( for a picture, look up: Chinese dragon. You'll probably find a picture.) The man spoke: '' is anyone here Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III ?'' Hiccup hesitated for a while before raising his hand '' Yes,that's me. '' He sounded more unsure than he actually wanted to sound, but nobody could blame him. The man was kind of intimidating. The man spoke once again '' my name is Dai Fang. I am here to give you this.'' Dai Fang got a letter in a red envelope out of his dragon's saddlebag and gave it to Hiccup. Then he continued speaking. '' You are given the chance to join the dragon college of Long…Go on, read the letter. '' He said. Hiccup opened the letter and read:
Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III
The barbaric Archipelogo
The island of Berk
You have been qualified as worthy to join the dragonriding college of Long, which is located in China. Our school is focused on teaching young dragon riders with potential. If you work hard you will graduate and become a dragon master. You have five days to decide if you want to join or not. The new school year starts after five days. If you decide to join, then locate our college and be there on the fifth day. Do not take outsiders with you with exception of your dragon and do not show anyone the location of the college. We hope you will decide to join our beautiful college.
Headmaster Shao Long
Master of dragonriding
Hiccup couldn't believe his eyes when he read the letter. He had been chosen for a school he had no idea existed! So there was more out there after all! Suddenly Dai Fang started speaking again. Hiccup jumped a little, since he had almost forgotten the man was there. '' Understand this is a very unique chance young man. The headmaster has been following your progress the moment he heard about all your achievements. He rarely invites new students, we're a very inclusive school you see. Only people with a great connection to dragons get chosen for our school. Think about it and if you decide to come. Follow this map.'' He handed Hiccup a map which pointed out exactly which way to take to get to the college. Hiccup didn't think anyone from the Archipelago ever traveled that far. In the meantime Dai Fang climbed on his dragon and flew off, which Hiccup thought was very strange since the dragon didn't have any wings. Astrid, who had been reading along with Hiccup the entire time over his shoulder, gave him a tight hug and looked nearly just as excited as Hiccup felt. '' This is amazing Hiccup! You have to take this chance! You can become a – uh, what said the letter again – a dragon master! You'll do great there! I mean, you're the first dragon rider on Berk and the best one! '' Hiccup blushed slightly at Astrid's compliment. '' Thanks Astrid. But there's one problem: My dad. He will never agree to this. Going outside the Archipelago is one thing but traveling all the way to China? He will never let me go there. I don't even know how long it will take for me to graduate.'' Astrid's face didn't change a thing. Her face even looked more determined by this. '' You thought he would say no about traveling beyond the Archipelago but he didn't. Who knows, mayby he'll say yes. Besides, if you don't try you will never know right? '' Astrid gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and then walked off. Hiccup smiled slightly at her. He felt Toothless press his nose against his hand and when he looked at him Toothless made a bit of noise and gave him a look which obviously said: You have to try. You're never going to get this chance again. Hiccup laughed silently at the fact that he could see what his best friend was saying the moment he looked at him. He looked at the great hall where he saw his father walk in. '' alright bud, you and Astrid are right. I'm never going to get this chance again. And who knows, mayby he will say yes? Let's do this'' Together they walked up the stairs on their way to the great hall.
