Hey! My first fan fiction! I've been wanting to post something but nothing came to my mind that I liked, but then I thought of this! Hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own How To Train Your Dragon, only Auster and Griffin.

It was a stormy night, as if Thor was trying to stop the voyage that the small ship was making across the swirling black ocean. Life changing moments always seem to have a storm in them, I thought. Maybe my life will take a big turn soon. What I had no idea about was that I couldn't have been more right.

My name is Auster. I always wished my parents named me Amber, because that is the color of my hair and sometimes, my eyes. I had those types of eyes that were gray, but changed. I wasn't sure how. Nobody's explanation made any sense.

I control my emotions. I don't show them in public, because I was trained not to have any. I couldn't, with the job the Bandit Clan had me perform.

I was a spy. I met my dragon, Griffin at three months. Griffin was a Scorchspine, one of the last the clan were born on the same day, which brought us close. As we grew up the Bandits had us not be near anyone but each other and the warriors who watched us. Thus we formed an even stronger bond, and came to rely on only each other for support.

My first mission with Griffin was when we were sent to spy on a Berserker village we had been in alliance with, because Chief was suspicious of them not giving their full pay for us exterminating their dragons. I was only eight. We discovered that were keeping a third of our pay for themselves, and immediately broke off the alliance and ransacked the village, Bandit style. Some people say we're crazier than the Berserkers themselves. I don't blame them.

That was what went through my head as we crossed the stormy sea towards the small island called Berk. Chief wanted to study their habits so we could loot them and continue on, with our main force in tow while we found and uninhabited island. Our own had been destroyed.

I double checked all my supplies. Sword, check. Upgraded saddle, check and on Griffin. Super hard steel-tainted Saxe knife, check. Gloves and leather boots with iron on underside, check. Camping supplies, check.

I tied my supplies to Griffin's saddle and mounted up, ready to fly. As we were about to take off, a huge wave crashed on top of the ship, destroying the mast and most of the deck and throwing men overboard. I was crushed on top of Griffin with the mast falling on top of us and the sail wrapping around us, preventing us from flying away.

I tried to cut or fly out of the sail, but I wasn't fast enough. We were thrown underwater, being sunk like and anchor by the mast attached to the sail.

As I sank, the only one thought crossed my mind before everything went dark.

I hope Griffin survives.

Thor, Odin and Freya were all watching as the wave wiped out the pair. All three heard the prayer. All three had the power to do something. And all three were fighting about what to do.

"We should just send them off to Hel and be done with them," Thor said. "They're gone and we shouldn't have to deal with them now.

"But they are brave and noble to their clan and each other," Freya retorted.

"And killers," Odin said. "If we let them live, how do we know that Auster won't just round up the Bandits and continue on?"

"This is the only world they know of," Freya said. "If we let them see how the rest of the world can be peaceful, than they could change. Auster is only twelve, after all, and Griffin is still a young dragon."

Odin grumbled in agreement. Thor shot Freya a glare literally full of lightning. "How are we going to save them?" Thor asked. Odin nodded at that. "It's too late for them," he continued.

Thor and Odin directed their attention to another part of the world. Freya, annoyed at her opinion being ignored one of the few times, cast a spell behind their backs.

"You two will survive," she murmured. "And it might just make things a little more interesting to watch."

By the way, if you didn't know, Freya is the goddess of love, fertility, battle and magic.
