It was morning in Berk as a young five year old boy with brown red hair woke up from sleep, rubbing sleep from his eyes getting dressed but going outside hoping the other kids wouldn't pick on him as he sighed but saw his father Stoick the Vast give him breakfast.

"Morning Daddy!" he said as Stoick sighed.

Hiccup reminded the chief of his wife Valka who had been taken by a dragon when Hiccup was a baby but felt bad about being so stoic towards the child.

"Morning Hiccu, but I have to go." he said leaving.

Hiccup sighed as he hated when his Dad left and didn't like when he did this and wanted a friend even if it was a dragon sighing.

He was going to the forest, his favourite place to play, and look for trolls but were hearing soft growls and whimpers making the little boy curious as he had heard grown ups talk about traps which was why his Dad worried about him playing here.

He was going home but Stoick wondered what he'd been doing.

"Playing in the forest Dad." he said softly.

He was drawing after dinner, drawing Toothless as he knew the other kids wouldn't believe him or his Dad might be angry since the adults were mad at dragons and hopef to see Toothless again.

But in his nest where he, his mother and brothers were sleeping, Toothless was thinking about Hiccup as he was lonelyntoo, as his brother got to explore and their mother wouldn't let him as he was too little.

He hoped to see Hiccup again, unaware of what Fate might deal them.

He was lying beside his mother and getting sleepy, drifting off as his mother licked him seeing him out like a light
