Chapter 1.
This is Berk. It rains for around nine months of the year and hails the other three. The food that grows here is tough and tasteless; and the people that grow here are even more so. The only upside is the pets; some places may have birds or small rodents, but we have: DRAGONS!
It was a beautiful evening on the island of Berk, the sky had begun to turn a golden orange and sparkled amazingly across the ocean. But six teens and five dragons hadn't even noticed this spectacle of beauty. These six, who had defeated the Red Death all those years ago. These six who had become legends among the tiny island and beyond its walls of sea. No, it was these six that were about to have a race.
'OK guys you know the rules to a race, three times around the island, no beating each other up to get in front,' Hiccup, the smallest of the six had begun to say. He looked to his left to see the twins, Ruffnut and Tuffnut arguing and trying to mutilate each other again and heaved a small sigh.'on the other hand how about just no fighting in general, we don't want any seriously damaged limbs, now do we Ruff and Tuff?' He gave the bickering twins a rather stern look. They both stopped what they had been doing.
'Says you,' they replied in perfect unison. He continued to talk as if they hadn't questioned his liking of keeping all his still functioning limbs undamaged.
'The first one to the giant rock pillar wins. OK, Get ready,-'
'Set, go!' Snotlout, the brawnier cousin of Hiccup shouted frantically. He sped away on the back of his Monstrous Nightmare, Hookfang; followed by the twins, each on a head of their shared Hideous Zippleback, Barf and Belch. Snotlout and the twins were definitely the more… imprudent teens of six young Vikings. Fishlegs, the most quiet of all the teens simply looked at Hiccup with a shrug and began his slow hover around the island on his sweet, but slow Groncle, Meatlug.
'I can't win. Even after I lost my leg saving everybody and showing them that dragons are friendly, I still can't win.' He turned to see Astrid, his beautiful, blonde haired, somehow attracted to him girlfriend staring at him with a huge smile as she mounted her deadly nadder, Stormfly. She leaned over to him and gave him a painful punch on the arm.
'That's for complaining,' she said still smiling with her fringe now in her sea blue eyes. She then moved even closer and pressed her lips up to his.
'And that's for everything else.' Her and Stormfly then rocketed through the air at break neck speed, determined to beat the others.
'Well bud,' Hiccup begun to say to his ever loyal Night Fury, Toothless, who had helped him saved the village and shown them that dragon were not the monsters they had thought. 'We're going to have to fly fast if we want to win this race.' His friend made a purring like sound in agreement, and then the two, fast as lightning bolted to catch up with the others.
The two friends were now speeding past the others and their dragons: Fishlegs; who still went at a snail's pace, Ruff and Tuff; who were yet again bickering, Snotlout; who, being utterly self-obsessed was trying to see his reflection in the water and he was catching up to Astrid, who being very competitive was not giving up without a fight. They had reached the final lap and the two teens were neck and neck.
'OK bud, time to disappear.' And with that the boy and dragon had seemingly vanished; Astrid, who had barely paid attention, thought that she was assured to win now with Hiccup gone. Stormfly powered on with the command from her owner. Only to have the Night Fury come out of nowhere and up in the lead. Astrid screamed.
'I am not losing to you again Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third!' but try as she might, she was unable to pass the duo, who then landed gracefully on the rock pillar waiting for the others. After they had all finished arguing about the race being unfair and cheating, as well as the twins having their own small arguments in between once they had all landed, the had all laid or sat down on the pillar in beautiful silence.
'Hey, have you ever wondered if the people of Berk are the only to ride dragons?' Fishlegs pondered aloud, breaking the silence.
'How do you mean Legs,' Hiccup asked back. Curious about where the ample teen was going with this.
'You know how we trained dragons and stuff and now we ride them. I just wonder if there are any other people out there who have done the same thing.'
'Yeah,' agreed Ruffnut. 'And what would they be like?'
'And what kind of dragon would they have?' Astrid added in.
'And would they be as cool as me with a dragon?' Snotlout still thinking of himself interjected.
'OK, there is no way you, or any other person who could ride a dragon would be cooler than me,' Tuffnut smugly boasted, with his thumbs pointing towards him and a stupid smirk on his face. Ruffnut sighed loudly and turned her eyes up to the sky.
'OK, thank you for that Tuff, but yes, Legs does make a good point, what if we aren't the only ones who ride dragons, but unless we meet someone we might never know,' Hiccup said before a full on brawl from the two pig-headed boys commenced on the small pillar. He looked up at the darkening sky and heaved slightly.
'C'mon guys, it's getting dark, let's go.' They mounted the magnificent creatures and flew back to their small home.
That night, not far from the somewhat negligible island, a large beast that could only be a dragon and girl with the darkest, long brown hair trailing behind them was flying through the night.
'Oh Gods, I can't see a damn thing it's so dark,' the girl moaned as she squinted through the dark at a map resting on the beasts' back. 'at this rate we're never going to find anywhere to sleep.' The girl grumbled again and was received with a soft cooing of the creature. She smiled in dark and stroked it lovingly. Rather bored by this point, she looked down into the cold, dark water; as she did all the bags that she had strapped around her shoulders tumbled to that side, dragging her down into the water with them.
She was under. Struggling to gain ground to get up to the sweet air that came with the surface. With every stroke to get up, her bags would pull her back down again. Her lungs began to retch at her chest as she desperately clawed through the water. The world began to turn white and her head began to spin; just as she was about to black out, with one final stroke her head burst out of the water. She breathed in heavily thankful to not need to hold it, she smiled. She realized warm water surrounded her on what was meant to be a harsh, cold night, it was a current; and it was taking her in the other direction from where she saw the small speck that was the dragon flying off without noticing she was not there. And with that crearture leaving she felt as if her only one true family member, her home and life was leaving her. Her heart felt like it would retch at her chest again, not from lack of air but now from lack of love.
'DEFIANCE!' The girl yelled at the top of her lungs, desperate to see if the still decreasing speck would hear. She wished she had just sunk into the water instead.
Hour after hour past and all she saw was water. She began to feel sick when her head went under too many times and she felt like she would black out on one to many times. When she began to feel her eyes droop for the final time before she would pass out, she felt something hard press up against her back. She turned to see a wooden pole; she began to climb up onto a dock and stood up. Her legs felt like they would give way at any given moment yet she was still able to stand. She took in her surroundings, slowly scanning the area. The girl couldn't believe what she saw. Dragons! Never had she encountered a place that looked out for these mighty beasts, all around she saw them and things that would have to be for them. She saw them on the roofs of houses, in stable like sheds that were absolutely littered with them. As she walked around, peaking in windows to find even more inside homes, she pinched her arm, hard to insure she wasn't dreaming. She continued to walk eyes wide and mouth gaping open slightly.
'What on earth is this place, is it Valhalla, Oh Gods I'm not dead am I!' She looked into another window, and stopped dead in her tracks. The Drenched girl saw a mother and father, with two small children, asleep on the fur rug with a terrible terror clutched in their arms. She felt tears starting in her eyes, it was what she had always wanted, a family like that, parents and a sibling and others who cared about dragons too. She turned away and walked on.
She smiled wide as she thought this could be their new home. She stood in the middle of a group of houses, threw her arms up to the sky, closed her eyes and gave a yell of pure joy.
She hadn't known she had woken anyone, but when she opened her eyes she froze; all she saw was Vikings staring straight at her and of course dragons. She then looked at Hiccup, Toothless and the gang. She almost began to smile when she saw them, but of course she knew better than that. She had been tricked to many times by friendly looking faces, she ran.
'Who was that?' Tuffnut asked rather dumbly, how would anyone else know!
'What makes you think we know, dummy!' his other half said while hitting him in the back of the head.
'OW!' he cried.
'You're right, we don't know, you six will have to go and find her and make sure she's not hurt,' Stoick the Vast, Chief of the tribe said to the small band.
'Hiccup, once you find her bring her back to our house, make sure she's not frightened by the dragons.' Surprisingly enough Hiccup was the son of this mountain of a man, with a beard like a forest of red.
'Got it dad, OK gang let's try and find her. They didn't have to go far, because she was so exhausted, she wasn't able to run fast.
'Hey!' the scrawny teen called out, the girl turned to face them, she was shivering violently and her eyes were as big as a moon.
'Where-,' the girl had begun but didn't finish her sentence, she had finally blacked out.
