Chapter Two
The hall grew quiet as a picture began to appear on the screen.
EXT. NORTH SEA/VILLAGE - NIGHT
We skim above a dark, wild ocean. The camera turns toward a
lone island, Berk. It is a gigantic shard of rock jutting
straight out of the water.
HICCUP (V.O.)
This, is Berk.
The Hall started as they heard Hiccup's voice come to them from the screen. Toothless picked his head up from where he had it in his paws when he heard his rider's voice, put then put it down again, realizing it wasn't the real Hiccup. More than one viking noticed this action by the large dragon.
It's twelve days
North of hopeless, and a few
degrees South of freezing to death.
It's located solidly on the
meridian of misery.
The Teens snorted at the description, accurate as it was. Who knew that this was Hiccup the screw-up talking?
The camera drifts over rolling hills to reveal a small
village nestled on an outcropping of sea mounts.
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)
My village. In a word, sturdy.
And it's been here for seven
generations, but every single
building is new.
Snotlaut saw an opportunity to tease his cousin, as usual.
"Why wouldn't they be new? Those foul monsters always destroy them. But ten again, you do most of the damage yourself so..." he said, laughing, along with the twins. Astrid frowned and so did Fishlegs. Toothless picked his head up again, and let out a low growl, though most people thought it was because Snotlaut called them monsters. Hiccup sighed and turned back to the screen. Toothless stared at his rider, and saw tears in his eyes. He let out another growl, but this one was more nurturing, more kind, and Hiccup secretly smiled, as did Astrid.
"Snotlaut, you can make fun of Hiccup later. Let's watch the movie now." she said, and they all turned back to the movie. Hiccup smiled at Astrid, and she smiled back and the two turned back to the screen.
The camera drifts closer, circling.
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)
We have fishing, hunting, and a
charming view of the sunsets. The
only problems are the pests. You
see, most places have mice or
mosquitoes. We have...
"What? What do we have?" Tuffnut said, and everyone groaned.
"Dragons you idiot! You know, those bug ugly things over there?" Snotlaut said, pointing to the dragons, all of whom growled loudly.
Sheep graze peacefully on a hillside. Suddenly one is
snatched.
CUT TO:
INT. STOICK'S HOUSE - CONTINUOUS
A door is pulled open... as a DRAGON swoops directly toward
it, BLASTING FIRE. The door is SLAMMED. The fire shoots
through the slats of wood, illuminating HICCUP, a gangly
teenage Viking.
Everyone looked from on-screen Hiccup to the real Hiccup, and nodded once they saw the same person. Hiccup smiled at his self on the screen.
"Yup. That's me all right!"
HICCUP
...dragons.
EXT. STOICK'S HOUSE
He reopens the sizzling door, as leaps off of the front
porch. He weaves through the erupting mayhem as Vikings pour
out of the buildings, ready for a fight.
More dragons swarm in, setting rooftops alight and hauling
off sheep.
HICCUP (V.O.)
Most people would leave. Not us.
We're Vikings. We have stubbornness
issues.
All the vikings glared at Hiccup. He shrugged, while most kids would shiver under the glare of that many large men and women.
"It's true. Normal people would have left, or even tried to create a peace with the dragons." he said, glancing in the dragon's direction, especially Toothless's, and Stoick laughed.
"Who would want to have a treaty with those monstrosities?" he asked, and Hiccup sighed. Some people, unlike Astrid, couldn't be changed.
Vikings sound the alarm. Viking men and women pour out into
the streets, axes in hand.
ON HICCUP darting through alleys, staying under eaves, making
his way through the battle.
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)
My name's Hiccup. Great name, I
know. But it's not the worst.
Parents believe a hideous name will
frighten off gnomes and trolls.
Like our charming Viking demeanor
wouldn't do that.
The dragons did their version of a laugh, and Hiccup and Astrid joined them, to the viking's surprise.
Dragons sweep back and forth, dodging axes and blasting the
Vikings who throw them. A burly warrior gets tossed in an
explosion, knocking Hiccup to the ground.
VIKING
(FIERCE)
Arggghhhhh!
(cheery, insane)
Mornin'!
Hiccup gets to his feet and continues to rush past gigantic
men and women.
"That's one of the perks of not weighing ten hundred pounds" Hiccup said, and the teens laughed, much to his own surprise. Usually they laughed at him, and not with him.
HICCUP (V.O.)
Meet the neighbors. Hoark the
Haggard...
HOARK
What are you doing out!?
HICCUP
... Burnthair the Broad...
BURNTHAIR
Get inside!
HICCUP
... Phlegma the Fierce...
PHLEGMA THE FIERCE
Get back inside!
HICCUP
. Ack.
He passes a silent ox of a viking, picking his ear.
The Vikings laugh, including the latter, bright red in the face, but laughing, none the less.
HICCUP (CONT'D)
Yep, just Ack.
Enter STOICK, the biggest Viking of all. He yanks Hiccup from
the path of a strafing dragon and holds aloft to the crowd.
STOICK
Hiccup!?
(accusingly; to the crowd)
What is he doing out again?!
"Why would he care?" Hiccup muttered to Astrid. She placed a hand on his arm.
"It's okay Hiccup. You have me and Toothless now." she said, and Hiccup smiled at her, than to his dragon, who flashed a gummy one back.
(TO HICCUP)
What are you doing out?! Get
inside!
The flames light up his scowling face and matted red beard.
He sets Hiccup down and turns to the sky, searching.
HICCUP (V.O.)
(IN AWE)
That's Stoick the Vast. Chief of
the tribe. They say that when he
was a baby he popped a dragon's
head clean off of its shoulders.
Do I believe it?
Stoick grabs a wooden cart and hurls it, knocking the
strafing dragon out of the sky.
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)
Yes I do.
The real Hiccup snorted. "Yeah right. He's not that great." he thought, then turned his attention back to the movie.
An EXPLOSION forces Vikings to DUCK. Stoick stands firm,
brushing flaming debris off of his shoulder.
STOICK
(barking; to his men)
What have we got?
VIKING #1
Gronkles. Nadders. Zipplebacks. Oh,
and Hoark saw a Monstrous
Nightmare.
STOICK
Any Night Furies?
VIKING #1
None so far.
STOICK
(RELIEVED)
Good.
Toothless did his version of a snort, which was snorting blue flames out his nostrils. Hiccup found it hard to contain his laughter, as did Astrid.
VIKING
Hoist the torches!
Massive flaming braziers are raised on poles, lighting up the
night sky... and revealing swirling dragons of all types.
Below, Hiccup crosses an open plaza and ducks into an open
building with a tall chimney.
The Hall watched as the screen faded to black.
"We're going to have a little break now. Feel free to explore, but you will be transported back here once the movie will continue." Enchantress' voice said, and everyone got up and stretched. Hiccup motioned for Astrid to follow him, and they walked out to a small, enclosed garden, where Toothless soon joined them. Hiccup sighed as he and Astrid were wrapped in Toothless's wings.
"What are we going to do?' he asked, and Astrid shrugged.
"Well, if this movie is our points of view, than they'll find out that you set him free soon." she said, and Hiccup sighed again. They trio sat there for the rest of the break, just sitting together and thinking. Little known to them, a person was watching the three. Fishlegs stared in shock as Hiccup, the skinniest viking in the village, Astrid, the toughest girl in the village, and the most dangerous dragon in the known world, a Night Fury, sat together, huddled tightly. Imagin what the others would think if he told them.
