"Dialogue"

The Movie

'Narration in the Movie'

Zirch looked at Hiccup and Stoick before clearing his throat, "Well . . ." He began to get their attention, "Both of you, please take a seat so we can start the movie".

Stoick huffed and sat on his heat, he glared at Hiccup as the boy sat on the ground and leaned his back on the dragon. He was angry that his son would betray him and the whole village like that, he was sure to question the boy once they were back to Berk.

"Alright." Zirch said as he made a chair appeared from thin air and took a seat himself, "Let's start the movie, shall we? This movie is called How To Train Your Dragon, by the way".

Before any of the Berkians could ask any question about it, the light turned off and the screen began to show them the movie.

NORTH SEA/VILLAGE – NIGHT

The sceneshowed the surface of a dark, wild ocean. The cameraturns toward a lone island,with a giganticshard of rock jutting straight out of the water.

'This, is Berk.'

Hiccup's eyes widened as he heard his own voice came out of nowhere, he was told that the movie was about his secret so he had guessed that he would be showing what he was doing all the time, but he didn't expect to hear his thought being voiced like that.

Meanwhile, the Vikings all surprised when they heard Hiccup's voice, they didn't think that Hiccup would be the one to do the introduction. But then again, this movie was about Hiccup's secret, so they shouldn't get that surprised.

'It's twelve days North ofHopeless, and a few degrees South of Freezing toDeath. It's located solidly on the Meridian ofMisery.'

The camera drifts over rolling hills to reveal asmall village nestled on an outcropping of seamounts.

"So gloomy, Hiccup." Gobber commented as he heard how the boy described his own village, he had known that Hiccup was treated badly in the village, that's why he tried his best to make the boy happy, but he would never guessed that Hiccup felt that bad about the village.

Hiccup merely grinned at Gobber. The rest of the teens, on the other hand, were chuckling at the description. They couldn't help but agree with what Hiccup said about their village, his description was perfect.

'My village. In a word : sturdy. It's been herefor seven generations, but every single buildingis new.'

"I wonder why." Snotlout cut in mockingly at Hiccup.

"If you don't know why then you are more stupid than I thought." Hiccup shot back calmly, causing Astrid to smirk and the twins to laugh at a scowling Snotlout.

The camera drifts closer, circling.

'We have fishing, hunting, and a charming viewof the sunsets. The only problems are the pests.You see, most places have mice or mosquitos.We have...'

Sheep graze peacefully on a hillside. Suddenlyone is snatched.

CUT TO:INT. STOICK'S HOUSE – CONTINUOUS

A door is pulled open... as a DRAGON swoopsdirectly toward it, blasting fire. The door isslammed. The fire shoots through the slats ofwood, illuminating HICCUP, a good looking teenageViking.

HICCUP:...dragons.

Toothless smacked the back of Hiccup's head with his tail, "Hey!" Hiccup protested as he glare half-heartedly at his dragon, "What was that for?".

Toothless smacked him again while giving a look that said 'A pest, really?'

Hiccup rubbed his abused head, "Well, don't blame me." He grumbled to his dragon, "It's in the past, all the me in there care was to make my dad proud".

Stoick frowned as he heard that, Does that mean he doesn't want to make me proud anymore? He thought in confusion, And why would he talk to a mindless dragon again?

The dragons, on the other hand, were looking at Hiccup and Toothless curiously, wondering why the two were acting friendly to each other. They were confused when the boy chose to sit near the dragons, but to hear the boy talk with the feared Night Fury so casually had spark their interest, making them wonder who the boy was.

EXT. STOICK'S HOUSE

Hiccup reopens the sizzling door, as leaps off of thefront porch. He weaves through the eruptingmayhem as Vikings pour out of the buildings,ready for a fight.

Almost all of the villagers groaned, they know that nothing good would happen when Hiccup was out of the house. "Hiccup, why were you out of the house?" Stoick asked his son in annoyance, "You should stay where you are safe and stay out of the battle".

Hiccup raised an eyebrow at Stoick, "Didn't you see that the house was on fire?" He asked back, "I didn't want to wait for the house to collapse on me before going out, thank you very much." He said with sarcasm before turning back to the screen, "I need to go to the forge anyway, Gobber needed my help since the forge is the busiest during a raid".

Stoick was surprised, he certainly didn't think of the possibility of Hiccup being in danger staying in their house during a raid.

The other Vikings, aside from Astrid, were wondering what Hiccup means by Gobber needed his help, as far as they know, Hiccup was useless, he would only distract Gobber.

Meanwhile, Astrid was wondering what Hiccup normally did in the forge during a raid. She knew that Hiccup's skill in smithing was great, she had seen the fake tail fin he made and it's good, so she was curious about what Hiccup would do during a raid.

'Most people would leave. Not us. We're Vikings.'

"Yeah, right!" Snotlout said confidently, "We are Vikings, we fear nothing!"

'We . . . have stubbornness issues.'

"Hey! What's that supposed to mean?!" A random Viking asked indignantly.

"I mean what I said." Hiccup answered, "Other people would leave if they got raided by dragons so frequently, the fact that we didn't proved that we are stubborn people".

The dragons laughed hearing that, He couldn't put it better, they thought in agreement.

Vikings sound the alarm. Viking men andwomen pour out into the streets, axes in hand.ON HICCUP darting through alleys, stayingunder eaves, making his way through the battle.

'My name's Hiccup. Great name, I know. But it'snot the worst.'

Stoick looked at Hiccup in confusion, Doesn't he like his name? He thought to himself, It's the name that Valka gave him.

'Parents believe a hideous namewill frighten off gnomes and trolls. Like ourcharming Viking demeanor wouldn't do that.'

"Again, what do you mean by that?" Another random Viking demanded.

"Just wait." Was Hiccup's only answer.

Dragons sweep back and forth, dodging axesand blasting the Vikings who throw them. Aburly warrior gets tossed in an explosion,knocking Hiccup to the ground.

VIKING (FIERCE): Arggghhhhh! (cheery, insane)Mornin'!

The Vikings laughed while the Viking from the screen blushed, "I drank too much that night." He mumbled, causing the laughter to grow louder.

"I thought so." Hiccup answered wth a chuckle.

Hiccup gets to his feet and continues to rushpast gigantic men and women.

'Meet the neighbors. Hoark the Haggard...'

HOARK: What are you doing out!?

' ... Burnthair the Broad...'

BURNTHAIR: Get inside!

' ... Phlegma the Fierce...'

PHLEGMA THE FIERCE: Get back inside!

'Ack.'

He passes a silent ox of a Viking, picking hisear.

Enter STOICK, the biggest Viking of all. Heyanks Hiccup from the path of a strafing dragonand holds aloft to the crowd.

STOICK: Hiccup!? (accusingly; to thecrowd) What is he doing out aga-?!(TO HICCUP): What are you doing out?! Getinside!

The flames light up his scowling face andmatted red beard. He sets Hiccup down andturns to the sky, searching.

The villagers shook their head when they saw that Hiccup kept running, they know now that Hiccup headed for the forge, but they still thought that it would be better if the boy stayed inside a house somewhere.

Stoick frowned as he heard his voice when he scolded Hiccup, he didn't remember being so harsh. "I'm sorry that I was so harsh, son." He said as he looked at his son, who was calmly petting the dragon's head, "I was worried that you could get killed, so I wanted you to stay out of trouble".

Hiccup looked down at his lap, refusing to look at his father, "I understand that you are worried, dad." He said softly, "I understand that much . . .".

Stoick frowned, " . . . but?" He coaxed tentatively.

"But I still prefered it if you would give me a chance." Hiccup finished while looked at Stoick with a sad eyes, "You never give me that chance." He shook his head and looked back at the screen.

Stoick gripped his hands tightly into fists, the words stung, but he knew that he was the only one to blame. What Hiccup said was right, he had never give the boy a chance, but he was so busy with his duty as a Chief. He sighed and looked at the screen, he would try to fix everything once they were out of here.

'(IN AWE) That's Stoick the Vast. Chief of thetribe. They say that when he was a baby hepopped a dragon's head clean off of itsshoulders.'

Toothless and the dragons snorted, no human would be able to achieve such a feat, even more so a human baby.

Stoick and the older Vikings, on the other hand, were chuckling, they never thought that the rumor was still running around.

'Do I believe it?'

Stoick grabs a wooden cart and hurls it,knocking the strafing dragon out of the sky.

'Yes I do.'

Stoick smiled, at least his son saw him as a role model, it lifted his spirit since his chance to fix everything was higher now.

Toothless gave Hiccup an 'Are you serious?' look.

"Well, he is my Dad." Hiccup whispered to his dragon.

An EXPLOSION forces Vikings to DUCK. Stoickstands firm, brushing flaming debris off of hisshoulder.

STOICK: (barking; to his men) What have wegot?

VIKING #1: Gronkles. Nadders. Zipplebacks. Oh,and Hoark saw a Monstrous Nightmare.

STOICK: Any Night Furies?

Toothless perked up at this.

VIKING #1: None so far.

STOICK: (RELIEVED) Good.

Toothless chuckled, to think that the Viking Chief would be so relieved knowing that he hadn't make his appearance yet, it's amusing. He looked at his Rider and shot the boy with his toothless grin, earning a chuckle from the boy and a nice scratch behind his ears.

VIKING: Hoist the torches!

Massive flaming braziers are raised on poles,lighting up the night skyand revealingswirling dragons of all types.Below, Hiccupcrosses an open plaza and ducks into an openbuilding with a tall chimney.

INT. BLACKSMITH STALL - CONTINUOUS

He crosses behind a counter, where a peg-legged, one-armed hulk of a Blacksmithreshapes blades with a hammer and tongsappendage.

GOBBER: Ah! Nice of you to join the party. Ithought you'd been carried off.

Gobber grinned, "Ah, at last, I make an appearance!" He exclaimed excitedly.

Hiccup dons a leather apron and starts to putaway Gobber's scattered appendages.

HICCUP: Who me? Nah, come on! I'm way toomuscular for their taste. They wouldn't knowwhat to do with all this.

Hiccup strikes a bodybuilder pose.

Hiccup blushed and hid himself under one of Toothless's wings while the whole room filled with laughter, "Oh man." He grumbled in embarassment, "Now they would see every silly thing I did when I was alone".

"What was that Hiccup?" Snotlout asked after he could calm his laughter, "You look like a twig!".

"Shut up." Hiccup grumbled to himself.

"Shut up, Snotlout!" Astrid, as if she heard Hiccup's mumble, snapped at Snotlout with a glare on her face, "Be quiet, I want to watch." She finished before Snotlout even have a chance to retort.

Hiccup secretly smiled at Astrid, he was happy that Astrid would help him.

GOBBER: They need toothpicks, don't they?

Hiccup gets to work, transferring bent andchipped weapons to the forge as Vikings crowdthe counter for replacements.

HICCUP (V.O.)

'The meathead with attitude and interchangeablehands is Gobber. I've been his apprentice eversince I was little. Well...littler.'

"Who are you calling 'meathead', Hiccup?" Gobber asked with a mock glare in hiccup's direction, because the boy was still hiding under his dragon's wing.

Hiccup came out from under the wing and shot Gobber a smirk, "Who do you think?" He asked back teasingly.

Gobber snorted, "Then I will call you Toothpick from now on." He said before looking at the screen again.

EXT. VILLAGE - CONTINUOUS ON STOICK

STOICK: We move to the lower defenses. We'llcounter-attack with the catapults.

Armed men rush past, flanking others who carrysheep to safety. Stoick follows up the rear as,overhead, a dragon strafes the rooftops withNapalm-like fire.

HICCUP (V.O.)

'See? Old village. Lots and lots of new houses.'

Astrid burst out laughing, "Hiccup! You said it like it's nothing big!" She exclaimed before chuckling quietly to herself.

"Well, we always got many burning houses during the raids, Astrid." Hiccup answered with a smile, "It's already a common occurence now".

"True." Astrid agreed as she locked gaze with Hiccup for a few seconds before looking towards the screen again, she found Hiccup more and more interesting after their flight together, she wondered if she would find out more about Hiccup through this movie.

VIKING: FIRE!

In response, the fire brigade charges through theplaza - four TEENS, tugging a large woodencask on wheels. From it,they fill buckets ofwater to douse the flames. One among them isa cute, energetic Viking girl. Hiccup leans out ofthe stall to watch her.

HICCUP (V.O.)

'Oh and that's Fishlegs, Snotlout. The twinsRuffnut and Tuffnut. And...(DREAMY) Astrid.'

A SLOW-MOTION explosion erupts behind her,framing her in a sexy ball of fire. The others joinher, looking awesome and heroic.

"I didn't know that you watched us that time." Astrid commented as she looked at Hiccup with a raised eyebrow and a faint blush at her cheeks, because she knew that Hiccup didn't really watching all of them that time, only her.

Hiccup smiled with a blush as well, "I was always watching from the forge." He said as he locked eyes with Astrid again, his eyes told Astrid that he always got his attention on the girl.

They smiled at each other until Gobber's voice broke their trance, "Ah, young love".

"Gobber!" Hiccup and Astrid cried out indignantly, their blush deepened.

Gobber merely grinned at them. Stoick raised an eyebrow and looked at the two blushing teens before smirking knowingly as well. Snotlout, on the other hand, was gaping at them, he couldn't believe that Astrid took an interest in Hiccup.

HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)

'Their job is so much cooler.'

Gobber frowned, "What's wrong with being a blacksmith?" He asked as he focused on Hiccup, "I thought you like being a blacksmith".

"I like it, Gobber." Hiccup assured him, "I like being a blacksmith more than being a fire brigade, but you got more attention being a fire brigade, the people could see you work and acknowledge you".

"That's not true, lad." Gobber countered, "My skill had lessened greatly after I lose my hand, it's you who did most of the job in the village." He explained, "Your job is much more important and cool than the fire brigade, without you, the rest wouldn't have their weapons".

"Oh, they would still have their weapons, Gobber." Hiccup answered sarcastically, "They told me to 'get back inside', remember?".

The Vikings grew uncomfortable as they heard Hiccup's words, guilt consumed them as they always thought that Hiccup didn't do anything useful in the forge and would only disturbed Gobber, they didn't know that it was actually Hiccup who did most of the job.

The dragons were confused, the boy was the one who made the weapons the Vikings used to kill their kin, but here the Night Fury acted friendly towards the boy. They wondered what had actually happened between the boy and the Night Fury.
