"Sometimes friendship is found in the oddest of places. Like a treasure it is hidden but when found it will be the most rewarding bond ever." ~Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III


There was a young female viking who was the eldest child of the chief of a village called Berk. This viking is Brenda Haddock, she isn't any ordinary viking. Like her grandfather Stoick the Vast she had incredible strength, like her mother she was an excellent fighter, and like her father she will be a great dragon rider. Ever since she was young Brenda was special at the age of four she picked up a large axe and threw it across the room, thankfully missing any heads in the axe's path. She mastered a sword at the age of eight, and mastered many more weapons after that. Though what made her really seem special was once she had an arm wrestling match with one of the large male vikings and she crushed the bones in his hand. From then on she received the nickname Brenda Bone-Crusher. She became one of the most respected female vikings of the village than she went on to study at the dragon academy. Today was the first day of her training Brenda couldn't wait to ride her first dragon she will be one of the youngest riders to have ever reached the academy starting at the age of 12 years old. Brenda and a few other vikings waited for the teacher to arrive at the arena.

"Hey Brenda what kind of dragon are you going to get?" asked a petite viking in a soft voice.

"Oh hey Eira, umm I'm not sure how about you?,"Brenda inquired the fragile viking.

Eira replied,"I'm going to try to get a gronkle if I can."

"Oh just like your brother?"Brenda queried

"Yea, and my father. It's gonna be like a family tradition or something."

"Hmm interesting it would be hard for my family to do that since we have two kinds of dragons."

"True but no one has ever found a night fury since your dad."

"Yea it's a shame. Oh I think our teacher is here. Wait is that my mom?"

A nadder flew in through the gate, it was Stormfly and her rider Astrid. Astrid strode up to the group of vikings there were six in all.

"Hello everyone as of today I am the new teacher for beginning students. My name is Astrid and this is my dragon partner Stormfly." Astrid said aloud petting Stormfly."Today were gonna start of with picking your dragons than out for a test fly than maybe an excercise of some sort. So let's get you all on some dragons shall we." Astrid made some weird noises that sounded like dragon growls and dragons soon flew in through the gate. Their was a variety of dragons before the riders and in so many colors."Alright everyone go up to the dragon you like and reach out a hand slowly if they let you pet them it means they accept you now go and pick." The children all spread out and searched through the herd of dragon. Brenda looked around passing by each specie of dragon ruling out some of them. Brenda looked at a Hideous Zippleback, I would need another rider for one of those. She looked at the group of gronkles and saw Eira reaching out to touch a light gray Gronkle, Well she found her dragon it seems though I'm not one for Gronkle's. She walked up to a Nadder, Should I get a Nadder? I'm not really sure a Nadder is what I want...She turned and looked a Monstrous Nightmare. Maybe a Nightmare is more my style. She walked up to an ash gray Monstrous Nightmare and slowly held out her hand the Nightmare snorted at first but then pressed his nose to Brenda's hand. Yes! I have a Nightmare. Brenda slowly climbed on to the dragon's back, she still felt uneasy on his back. She wasn't sure but something didn't feel quite right, Brenda shook her head and her and dragon went up to the group.

"You got a Nightmare? That's amazing...I hear they are hard to train though,"Eira said softly.

"Good I like a challenge,"Brenda stated.

Astrid looked at the student before her,"Ok now everyone has their dragon were gonna go out for a test fly." Astrid mounted Stormfly and flew out of the arena leaving the students to follow her. Brenda and Eira flew out and were trying to keep up with Astrid though gronkles aren't built for speed. Brenda stayed at the back with Eira because she didn't want to leave her behind. After awhile of flying Astrid took the group out to the middle of the island were large wooden stakes had been placed."So everyone this exercise will test how quickly you can move with your dragons. Whoever wants to go first can go." Brenda gladly decided to go first her and the Nightmare weaved through the course with ease. One by one everyone followed after that Astrid dismissed everyone and they left home. Astrid and Brenda flew home and left their dragons in the stables as they were walking toward the home Brenda stopped.

"How come you taught the class today doesn't dad usually teach?" Brenda questioned her mother.

"Well your father will busy from now on." Astrid answered.

"Why?"

"Well your dad is taking over as chief."

"He is that's great."

"They are going to hold a ceremony in his honor as soon as Trader Johann gets here."

"Why wait until her gets here?"

"Well your grandfather wants a sword built for your father for the ceremony. But there is an object that they wanted to use for a part of the sword"

"Oh I see now. So when is Trader Johann coming?"

"That's the problem he should have been here already."
