Chapter 4 Harry's Perspective

Now, while we have been looking at this from Hiccup's point of view. But a chapter of Hiccup sitting in a deafeningly silent room would be boring. So let's look at Harry's perspective for a minute. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were in a joint Gryffindor and Slytherin potions class. They were brewing Draught of Living Death when Mcgonagall, now back in her human form, walked into the classroom.

"Mr. Potter, Professor Dumbledore needs to see you in his office."

This of course caused sneers from the Slytherins, taunts from Malfoy, glares from Snape, and mixed reactions from the Gryffindors. Harry stood up and walked out of the class.

"Professor Mcgonagall, why do I need to go to Dumbledore's office? I haven't done anything."

"I believe there is a new student."

Harry and Mcgonagall walked the rest of the way in silence. It was rare to have a new student in the middle of the year. The first thing Harry saw when he walked into the office was a black dragon.

"Hagird," Harry started, "why did you bring another dragon into the castle? Norbert was hard enough to get rid of, and he was just a baby."

Harry then saw the boy sitting next to the dragon. His hair was brown and messy, and he was wearing armor. An image on his shoulder plate watched a piece of fabric on the dragon's tail.

"Ah, Harry. This is Hiccup and his dragon, Toothless. Minerva, you may resume your classes."

Harry sat next to Hagrid. "Why do you need me here, Dumbledore?"

"Well, Hiccup here seems to be a muggle."

"THEN WHY IS HE HERE?" Harry knew how important the Statute of Secrecy was.

"Hagrid thought he was a wizard, as he did fly here on a dragon. He says he is from Berk. Hiccup, could you tell us more about Berk and the people who have dragons there?"

Harry couldn't understand how Dumbledore was so calm. This muggle knew about Hogwarts, the Ministry, and had a pet dragon! Come to think of it, Harry had never seen that breed of dragon. The Hebridean Black Dragon was the closest he had seen. Something about this kid made Harry uncomfortable.
