Chapter 5

Hiccup strolls through the forest, searching for the dragon.

HICCUP

„Oh, the gods hate me. Some people lose their knife or their mug. No, not me. I manage to lose an ENTIRE DRAGON?!"

He slaps a branch out of his way, which snaps back and hits him in the face.

HICCUP

„Ow!"

Hiccup inspects his sourroundings and notices a trail in the forest floor, coming from something big. He follows the trench and finds the bound up Nightfury at its end.

Wow. I ignored the condition the nighfury was in and saw that it was nonetheless a majestic but yet pitiful creature.

Scared, Hiccup hides behind a boulder and then carefully tiptoes towards the dragon with his knife drawn.

I would have liked to scream „Put that knife away!" A dragon bound up like this can't hurt you anyway. And furthermore I didn't want to see him in this situation.

HICCUP

„Oh, wow. I did it. Oh, I did it! This fixes everything! Yes! I have brought down this mighty beast!"

„No. The dragon is still breathing weakly. He's just unconscious." I argued.

Hiccup does a victory pose with one foot on the seemingly dead dragon. At that the dragon reacts by pushing the boy away.

HICCUP

„Whoa!"

HE gets up and approaches the dragon again.

HICCUP

„I'm going to kill you, dragon. I'm gonna cut out your heart and take it to my father. I'm a Viking. I am a VIKING!"

„Well, true. But that doesn't mean you have to kill that dragon." To be honest, with a village like Berk this was actually the only way. But it was wrong!

He hesitates as he looks into the dragons eyes which are fearfully staring back at him. Meanwhile the Nightfury just lays there. Hiccup, incapable of killing the helpless creature, finally lowers the knife defeated.

HICCUP

„I did this."

He turns to leave, then decides otherwise and starts cutting the robes binding the Nightfury.

The dragon stirs and pounces on Hiccup, who is tossed to the ground. After a few seconds of starring at each other the dragon roars and lop-sidedly flies away.

My ears were ringing from the dragons roar. But this scene was impressive nontheless.

Hiccup slowly gets up. After a few seconds he whimpers and faint.

Uhm. Apparently Hiccup thought the same.
