Chapter 1
Title: They're still the best
Snotlout could hardly control Hookfang. Fishlegs was tentative when it came to Meatlug. Ruffnut and Tuffnut could never agree on ANYTHING when it came to their Zippleback. Astrid did her best, but she was still second place, which, for the first time in her life didn't bother her that much.
But Hiccup and Toothless were born to fly. Not just fly, but fly TOGETHER. As you watched them…if you watched closely you'd see Hiccup limping weakly when he thought no one was paying attention or Toothless chewing on the stump at the end of his tail fin.
But in the sky, they belonged together. Just he and Toothless, a boy and a dragon, best friends. Hindered and disabled on the floor, but made to be in the sky.
They're still the best and they always will be. And not just at flying, Astrid realized. At everything.
