Snotlout's POV

"I love this plan." I really had no idea what was going on, and since this was an idea made by Hiccup the Useless, it couldn't have been that great. There was a reason his inventions never work! It's in his name for Odin's sake! He's the village hiccup! However, Astrid seemed like she liked this plan (she was the one who told us to meet down in the training arena in the first place), and there was no way I was going to look like a wimp in front of the hottest girl on the island. I just wish I knew why we were in the Kill Ring, waiting for the island screw-up to show us something.

I didn't even see the point of this. I mean, our parents were on their way to the Dragons' Nest. They would go there, thanks to that Night Fury that for some reason that no one could understand, showed up in the ring and started fighting the Monstrous Nightmare. They would destroy the thing, and the dragons would be forced to move, finally leaving us alone. End of story, right?

"You're crazy," Ruffnut said right in Hiccup's face after she pushed me away from him. She then leaned in closer and whispered something that sounded like, "I like that." Hah, she would like that. I mean, look at her and her brother! They knock their heads into rocks, among other things, just so they could knock themselves out.

Astrid pulled her away smiled at Hiccup, and asked the question that I was just asking myself a few minutes ago. "So, what is the plan?"

Hiccup didn't answer straight away, but soon said, "You'll see," after looking back at us and smiled a stupid grin, like he couldn't believe we were actually going to help him with whatever it was that he was planning on making us do. Not like I could blame him, I wasn't really sure why I agreed to this when I don't really know what's going on. All I know is there will most definitely be violence and fighting involved (definitely something to look forward too), and that Astrid seemed totally on board with this (even though it turns out that she didn't know much more than we knew about the plan). If I went along with this, then maybe she will finally agree to go on a date with me!

My attention was drawn away from Astrid-centered thoughts at the sound of one of the cage doors opening. The very cage doors that kept vicious, blood-thirsty, merciless dragons from attacking us! What the heck was he doing? The dragons would eat us and take turns using Hiccup as a toothpick!

"Uh, Hiccup? W-what are you doing?" Fishlegs asked nervously. Out of all of us, he looked the most ready to have an accident in his pants. I would have snorted and made fun of him if I hadn't been so terrified myself. Fishlegs, despite his size, had always been the weakest fighter. Well, if you don't count Hiccup, that is. He would always spend all of his time holed up in the corner reading some useless book instead of training with the rest of us (again, excluding Hiccup).

Hiccup turned around, pausing for a moment. "I'm going to show all of you what dragons are really like," he stated, with a set look on his face. "They aren't just the horrible monsters we were all raised to believe that they are."

"Uh huh, yeah, right. Then why do they always burn our houses and steal our sheep, chickens, and perfectly tip-able yaks?" Tuffnut demanded, looking at Hiccup as if he were stupid. For one of the few times in my life, I actually agreed with the bone-head.

Of course, though, he had a response, "Because they are taking it to feed a sort of Dragon Queen," his expression suddenly got more serious than I think anyone had ever seen on the walking twig's face. "This dragon controls all the other dragons. They have to feed it, or they will be eaten themselves. This thing is so big, I would be willing to bet it could eat at least ten Gronckles, at the same time, whole."

Everyone was silent for a minute before Fishlegs decided to speak up, "Uh, there's d-definitely no way something that big can really be at the Dragons' Nest, controlling all the dragons, forcing them to raid us to steal food for it," Fishlegs replied, a very noticeable quiver in his voice.

To everyone's surprise, it wasn't Hiccup who spoke up next, but Astrid. "It's true," we all turned to look at her in shock. She had actually seen this thing? When? "It isn't like anything I've ever seen before. It has to be at least fifteen times the size of the Great Hall, and ten times more horrible than all the dragons we know of, combined," she said grimly, giving each of us a stern look, daring anyone to disagree with her.

The color drained out of all of our faces. "H-how d-do you guys know this?" Fishlegs whimpered. His expression was one of pure terror, and probably mirrored the rest of us. Except me of course, I was brave enough to be able to hide my non-existent fear.

Hiccup had turned around to try and work on the door again, but he turned back to answer the question and sighed, "This may take a while."


Hey eveyone! Love and Secrets here! Alright, so here's the deal. This is my first ever fanfiction for any fandom, so please be nice. Reviews are obviously welcome, but please no flames. They're just rude.

This was just something I thought of. What happened between the scene with Hiccup introducing Snotlout to his dragon, and the next scene, where everyone else is on Dragon Island? I've yet to find any, so if you know of one, feel free to tell me about it! Obviously I haven't gotten to the picking-their-own-dragon part yet, but I plan on getting to it soon! I'm also probably going to be doing other perspectives, especially when I get to the part where the other teens get their dragons, so let me know who you want to hear from next, if you please. :)

I really should go now, its almost 3 in the morning where I am. Ugh.

Peace, love and happiness to you all!
