Good, now whre was I... Oh yeah! Since you all really love this story and watch the Riders of Berk, I was thinking on some one-shots from none the less than you, readers! You can use all the characters, add Ocs, just credit me for my caharcters and the Au, ok? Some fanart would be awesome too if ya want! And could please someone put this sory on Tumblr? thanks again! And enjoy the reading and review.

My name is Julian Haddock. Well, actually it isn't, but while I'm part of this Dragon killing group, my last name is Haddock, which in some point IS my last name. Ugh, these things are complicated. Now, I'm 14 years old, and I'm the newest recruit for the Berks' Dragon Slaying Academy, place specialized for teaching and training the descendents of the Viking tribes how to fight dragons.

But I was sent here for another reason. You see, I am direct descending of Hiccup Haddock III, the most famous Viking known in our history. And the Haddock family line has it's… curse/gift. I, just like my long-dead-aunt, grand-grandfather, his father, and his mother, and Hiccup III himself, have the ability to speak the ancient language of dragons, called Dragoneese. My respectful ancestor was the first known one, and he did something no person could even imagine: he befriended a dragon. And soon after that, his entire village accepted dragons as their friends and pets. The ability of us dragon whisperers was carried from generation to generation, sometimes skipping few as well. But unfortunately, something went wrong, and Vikings stopped riding dragons. They begun to hunt them again, and the war my ancestor stopped was on again. That happened 400 years ago, and it never stopped. I was told my family history when I was 10, and my mother gave me an old notebook of her dead sister, Valerie Haddock, also direct offspring and whisperer. Unlike other whisperers from 400 years ago, she didn't ignore her gift/curse. In fact, she befriended dragon as well, and started to unlock the true history of Berkians. She was so close to finally change things and stops the war, but she never did, cause of her mysterious death. Now, being the last known whisperer, it's up to me to continue her duty. I was sent to Berk to find her befriended dragon named Draco, but so far, I had no such luck.

But, there is something else I was looking for, or better yet, someone. I have never thought that thing like this was possible, but the piece of paper I just received from my mother proves me otherwise. Why she never told be before, I'll never understand, but if the letter is true, than this mission of mine is becoming more and more interesting and world-shaking. This news is big, and it will be bad and extremely dangerous if someone with bad idea found out. Hack, this whole knowledge of true history is dangerous!

But I'm Haddock. It's occupational hazard.

''Toothless, down! Get off of her, bad dragon, bad dragon! TOOTHLESS; I'M SERIOUS! GET OFF OF HER!'', Hiccup was shouting while wrestling with his brother and Astrid who barely managed to gasp before being attacked by the angry Night Fury. Toothless's nostrils caught a scent of something dangerous on her, and he was holding for dear life not to bite Hiccups' arm off for his stupidity.

''Hiccup, she is the enemy! Can't you smell it?!'', Toothless asked his older brother. Hiccup gritted his teeth and showed Toothless off Astrid, who was now lying on her back with her hands in front of her face and scared look in her eyes. In front of her was a real, live Night Fury. Her mind started to number the awards and promotions she will receive upon bringing a humagon AND Night Fury as well. But the fact she was Hiccup's… well; more-than-friend was a problem. And judging by the Toothless's reaction, he didn't like her one bit.

''Smell what, you useless reptile?!''.

''Useless reptile?! Why you little freak of nature, you asked for it!''.

Soon, two brothers were engaged in a fight which was followed by shouts, screams, ripping, biting, and fire spitting and clawing. Astrid got up and hid behind the boulder, watching Hiccup and his dragon brother fighting.

Toothless suddenly roared an ear-ripping sound, and spread his wings, tossing Hiccup next to him. He shot up in the sky, and looked down in the dust surrounded Hiccup.

''Brother, she has the same stanch as those hunters!''.

''Of course she does, she is human like them! All humans smell like that! Now apologize to her!'', Hiccup demanded angrily. In the meantime, Astrid's eyes went wide upon hearing Hiccups' words. She couldn't understand Toothless, but she had an idea what he was talking about. He could smell her scent! And considering how sweaty and stinky the Academy is….

''Hiccup, maybe I should just… leave… ok?'', she asked from behind the boulder. Hiccup's eyes went wide and he turned around to her.

''No, Astrid, wait!''. He quickly flew to her and grabbed her by the wrist gently.

''I'm sorry 'bout Toothless, he is usually not this paranoid, but he has some bad experiences with humans, he just needs some more using on you! Just, um… try to… Oh boy… Look, he is not gonna hurt you, just try to show him that you are not like the hunters we always have here, ok? Come here… Toothless, down! Now! She is ok.'', Hiccup's tone from calming and apologizing changed to demanding and strict. Leader-like.

Toothless scoffed and stayed in the air, not looking at them. Hiccup spread his wings and shot up to him, with strange look in his eyes. The look that made Toothless whimper and look away from Hiccup, but nonetheless he came down, followed by Hiccup.

Toothless grumped stepped towards Astrid, not looking at all convinced at Hiccup's answer. His look was saying 'I-don't-trust-you-at-all', but he let Astrid pet his nose. Hiccup's face softened and he let small smile bloom on his face.

''See, that wasn't so hard. So Astrid, meet Toothless, my brother and best friend. Toothless, meet Astrid, my mate. Um, if that's ok with you calling you like that, that is, Astrid, heh heh…'', he chuckled nervously.

But Astrid could care less about that right now. Her attention was on the dragon in front her. Was this the Night Fury that got away 17 years ago? He looked too young to confirm that, but nobody knew what the age line in dragons was. Yet, in the same time, the eyes of the dragon were piercing into her, giving her chills and making her shake with slight guilt. Toothless WAS tamed at the moment, and she couldn't believe that's he was petting the dragon. The dragon who started to soft his face and relax a bit. She couldn't believe that this was the Night Fury she was being told as ruthless, blood thirty and vicious beasts. In front of her was one tamed, purring, cat like and slightly adorable dragon who looked harmless.

''Hi, Toothless. Hiccup told me a lot about you.'', I said awkwardly. He muttered something on which Hiccup gave him an apologetic smile and blushed.

''And I heard a little too much about you from this freak here.''.

''What did he say?''.

''Um, nothing. He is just really glad to finally meet you, right buddy?''.

''Shove it in your tail, lover boy. I'm going to sleep.'', Toothless said and walked towards the cave. Hiccup muttered something and turned back towards Astrid.

''Well, that went well. So, um… What do you wanna do? We can go explore some more, or we can stay here and I can show you my latest inventions or-''.

''I'm tired, Hiccup. I think I need to go home, now.''.

Hiccup looked disappointed, but his innately chivalry told him to listen to her. He took her into his arms and took to the sky towards the town.

''Look, Astrid, I'm sorry about Toothless.'', he whispered while helping her climb her window. She got into her room and leaned on the side, giving him a small smile. She cupped his cheek as he leaned into her hand closing his eyes. Astrid couldn't stand this. It was obvious that she liked Hiccup, and she loved pretty much everything about him. He was so innocent, and smart, and kind, and cute, and perfect to be with the girl obsessed with her duties. She was so angry at herself for only using him as the ticket for the top spot in Berks' Food Chain. Yet, he adored her.

She was so not worthy of him. But she was a bitch, spoiled, old playground bully, and the person who took everything she wanted no matter the consequences after.

''It's alright, Hiccup, really. I… I think it will be better next time I see him, I'm just glad that you trust me enough to let me meet your brother and know where you live. Thanks.''. He smiled brightly and leaned his forehead into hers, making her blush furiously. His scent hit her again and she had to fight the urge to drag him in and kiss him furiously.

''Thank you for being in love with me, Astrid. You really have no idea how much you make me happy, how much you make me feel normal. I'll always trust you, no matter what, I promise. No, I swear upon my birthright.'', he said while taking her hands into hers and entangling their fingers together, like he always used to in order to prove her his love.

''What birthright?'', Astrid asked suddenly. He suddenly changed his face and furrowed hey eyebrows, clearly not wanting to talk about it.

''Um… I will tell you some day, but I can't right now. I promise.'', he said while giving her small smile. Astrid knew there would be no point in trying to make him tell her now, so she let it go. Instead, she lightly pressed her lips on his and let him think how much she loves him. He wasn't resist at all and let her to drag him through the window of her room.

17 years ago…

Val was sitting on her bed, looking at the wall with distanced look. Her hands were shaking from fear and her heart was beating like crazy. Not even she, the last dragon whisperer could ever predict something like this.

No, she knew how that happened. It all started with that final training and the decision that she is the one who will kill the dragon in front of the entire town. She got scared and in panic. She run to the cove where Draco was. He saw her tears. He begged her to tell him what was bothering her, cause he hated seeing his tamer sad. He really did show her how to cheer up…

''What have I done… Did I really had to meet him during the damned mating season?!'', she thought angrily. What they did that night… It was many things. It was weird, forbidden, awkward, but blissful. She never felt that kind of love from any one. Draco, even though being a dragon, was so gentle and caring, and she enjoyed every minute of it…

And that night resulted with the two month big stomach with the paradox inside it.
