Before I update I have a review to respond to."Again, you really don't make Hiccup good at much of anything. Come on! Tout the benefits of humanity in dragon society, it's not that hard! Have him build something, or do some climbing, or treat a wound. Humans aren't completely lacking merit, so I'd really like to see Hiccup doing something in these." I think you're reviewing the wrong story. Either that or you're a moron. May I remind you that Hiccup was SIX in that chapter. He is a quick thinker. Seriously, how many six year olds can come up with the staff plan. He also wanted to make peace with a giant monster that just tried to EAT THEM! So he is not violent. He's always getting into trouble like his canon self. And is super nice like his canon self. And that whole chapter was explaining how Hiccup and Toothless started flying together. It's the beginning of a life style. Not just a mere hobby. Flying means so much to both of them and Hiccup's pretty dang good at it. He's never flown like that at that point. So it's pretty impressive. There you go. He's an amazing flyer and smart. And what benefits would there really be exactly? He was taken from his parents when he was a baby. This was not suppose to be a happy go lucky story the whole freakin time. So in response to your other review on chapter 7, IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE SAD! You keep missing the entire point of each chapter. I'm going to go out on a limb here and tell you this isn't you're story. If you don't like it then go read something else please because I really don't want to have to respond to your horribly thought out reviews when I could be writing MY story. Not your story. MY story. Sorry to everyone else for the long authors note.
"Whooo hooo!" Hiccup cheered as Toothless did a barrel roll straight into the sky. They had both grown so much and were the best flyers at the Bewilderbeasts nest. Well if they were ever at the nest. They dove down towards the sea and skidded across the glistening water. Toothless beat his wings and leveled out slightly above the soft clouds. Hiccup pat Toothless on the base of the neck."You okay bud?" Toothless was panting from the heat." I think I need a break." Toothless shook his head and headed for the island before them. They landed on the beach where Toothless waded into the water. Hiccup chuckled and sat down on a rock. He wore a very tight fitting short sleeve shirt that went to his elbows and was made of a variety of scales shed by the thousands of dragons he had met. His pants were made of furs. Toothless had learned to hunt on his won and had caught tons of different animals. Hiccup used all of the fur and Toothless all of the meat. Hiccup had his staff strapped to his back. It was made of bones, reindeer antler tips(from Bucky their pet reindeer they had for years. He shed his horns so he didn't really mind if Hiccup used them to build his staff), and the branch from his earliest staff. It was the only weapon Hiccup ever carried.
Toothless never wore clothes like Hiccup though. He never got really cold because of his internal body heat and didn't really worry about getting injured or dirty."Huh?" Toothless sniffed the water and snapped up a medium sized fish. He tossed it onto the sand and played with it as the fish bounced around on the ground."Toothless stop it! That's just mean. If you're going to eat it then eat it already." Toothless rolled his eyes."You sound like Dad. Alright." He gobbled down the fish and sat down on the ground next to Hiccup. Hiccup drug his staff through the sand and drew a picture of Toothless."Why do you always do that?" Toothless asked him. Hiccup always liked drawing but it wasn't really a thing among dragons." Don't know. I just do. Why do you fly so much?" Toothless narrowed his eyes at the other side of the beach."What's that?" Hiccup turned.
The other side of the beach was under the shade of a huge rock side. A strange wooden structure was settled in the water."Let's go see." Hiccup got up and jumped on Toothlesses back."What if it's dangerous?" Toothless pouted."Well what if it's not?" Hiccup replied."Dad's going to kill us if we get into trouble with another stranger again." Hiccup puffed out his lower lip and leaned over Toothlesses head."Oh come on." Toothless raised and eyebrow."That's not even cute." "Sure it is." Toothless shook his head and Hiccup crossed his arms." I'll go check it out myself then." "Go ahead." Hiccup climbed off of Toothless and walked toward the weird structure. Like all 15 year olds he had to be right. Toothless snorted. What was he going to do now?
"Hello?" Hiccup yelled. The structure was, although Hiccup didn't not know this at the time, a boat. He climbed on board."Anyone here?" A squeak of the floor board frightened Hiccup as he leapt into the air. He stayed on all fours as he crept across the deck. The boat continued to rock as waves hit the side so Hiccup couldn't stand quite right. And this was the boy who could ride on a lightning fast dragons back while standing up. It was all so weird. A large stone wacked him on the head. Hiccup collapsed on the ground to find his was tangled in a mess of ropes. "Toothless!" Multiple men dragged a huge Skrill onto the ship. The leader, or so it seemed, was wearing a yellow fur tunic and had two blades buckled to his belt. Hiccup narrowed his eyes in confusion. They looked kind of like him." What is it Eret?" One of the men asked the leader.
"It's a person you dimwit. But what's he doing?" Hiccup snapped his jaws like he was trying to bite them. That and all of the squawking and clicks he wasn't making much of a good first impression. Eret pulled out his sword and held it to Hiccup. "Who are you and what are you doing on my ship?" He growled. Hiccup cocked his head."Uh...can you speak Dragonese please?" Of course Eret couldn't. He had no intention of killing Hiccup. At least not until he got some answers."Put him with the Skrill." One of the men nodded. He grabbed Hiccup and picked him up by the hair. Hiccup did cut his hair with what ever he could, so it wouldn't get in his face, but it was still tangled and went down to his shoulders. The man tossed Hiccup into the cage under the deck. Hiccup yelped as his shoulder popped out of it's socket. The passed out Skrill being dropped on top of him didn't really help. Luckily one of dragons spikes cut the ropes on Hiccup's binding. He pulled himself out from under the Skrill. The drop was about six feet down. That wouldn't usually be a problem to climb but with his arm injured like this. He jumped as high as he could but he couldn't grip the edge with one hand."Off to Drago!" Eret yelled. The ship lurched as they pushed the boat back into the water."Where am I?" The Skrill began to wake up.
"Are you okay?" Hiccup scambled over to the purple dragon and yanked on the ropes trying to break the dragon free."Ahh!" It hissed and rolled away."You're one of them!" Hiccup gasped. The Skrill though he was one of the men who kidnapped him."No no no! I'm not. They took me too. Don't worry. My brother will be here any minute. I'm sure he'll help free you too." The Skrill narrowed his eyes."How can you speak Dragonese?" He asked. Hiccup grinned."Uh, because I'm a dragon. My dad taught me and my brother. Now will you let me help you?" Hiccup held out his hand and pet the Skrill on the head. The Skrill relaxed and lied his head on the floor to let Hiccup cut the ropes. Hiccup chipped off one of the scales from his shirt and used it to slice one of the ropes. Since the Skrill had no lightning to use he was trapped ropes or not. They waited for ten minutes for Toothless. But he never came."So where is this brother of your again?" The Skrill asked. Hiccup looked down and his feet and sighed."I don't know. Look's like it's up to us to get ourselves out. I was really hoping I could get some herbs from home before I did this." The Skrill cocked his head.
Hiccup grabbed his dislocated arm and jammed it back into the socket. The popping noise it made was so horrible even the Skrill winced. Hiccup howled in pain to keep from biting his tounge. One of Eret's men peered into the cage. He Hiccup wasn't there. So he opened the cage. Hiccup jumped out and pulled the man in by his shirt."I'm sorry about this." Hiccup cringed as he held his hand over the mans mouth to keep him from calling for held. The cage was still open. The Skrill smacked the man with his tail across the room."That was unnessicary." Hiccup glared at the dragon who only smirked."Come on." Hiccup stepped onto the Skrill head and peeked out of the cage. He spotted his staff only a few feet from the cage. It must have been throw away when the ropes hit him. If only he could grab it then he'd have something to fight with. He reached for it but he had to stay low."Come on." He hissed to himself under his breath. He rolled the staff over to him. He mouth "Yes!" Then ducked back down. He stood on the Skrill's back and held onto one of the spikes. He opened the cage all the way with his staff and the Skrill darted into the air."Yeah baby!" The Skrill circled around the boat causing waves to rock the ship.
"Get them!" Eret shouted. All of the men stared at the boy on the dragon with wonder."Ugh!" Eret pulled back the net throwing contraption." Let's go!" Hiccup ordered but the Skrill wanted to brag some more. Eret shot the machine and the net was coming right at them. Hiccup switched the staff to his other hand and caught the net and flung it back the water. It didn't get hooked to the staff because it only hit the metal ball that weighed the net down. Now the Skrill was ready to go. "You let them get away!" Eret yelled at his men."Um, sir. Aren't you the one that shot the net?" Eret glared at him.
"Yes! Can you take me back to the island. Hopefully Toothless is still there." The Skrill agreed and flew Hiccup back to the beach."Thank you for the help." Hiccup told the Skrill and nodded. The dragon snorted."Yeah thanks to you too." He grumbled and flew off to the cliff where he lived. Hiccup smiled. It took a lot to get a thanks out of a dragon."Toothless! Where are you bud!?" The black dragon was no where to be found.
I said in the last chapter there would be time skip. Now they are the same age as in the first movie. So now Eret's kind of in the story. His story is separate but I will continue to tell it because they do meet up eventually. Next chapter will be Hiccup finding out where Toothless went, Cloudjumper, and Eret returning to Drago. This is before he got the scar on his chest just so you know. That's for reading and please review.
