(A banging sound can be heard as Jobber kept banging on it while yaks were mooing in the background.)
Jobber: Um...The following is a non-profit fan-based fanfic...Ooh...that smells so bad...Oh! Um...The HTTYD Franchise belongs to 20th Century Fox, Dreamworks Animation Studios, Disney, and Universal Pictures. Ugh...Hiccup, Henry, where are you guys...? Um...please support the official release...Why did I fell for it...?
(Suddenly, there was a large yak cry, sounding angry.)
Jobber - Uh...Good yak...nice yak...Bad yak! AAHHHHHH! HEEEELLLLLLP!
Previously on How To Train Your Dragon: A Future Rider's Beginning...
"Hello? Hello...! Is anyone out there?!"
A loud voice is heard coming out of the yak barn just on the outskirts of the village. In there was none other than the perverted Viking known throughout all of Berk, Jobber The Perverted.
"Oh well...Guess I'm stuck in here then...Hm? Oh hey there yak...Um...No...No, don't you dare-AHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
And now back to training dragons!
"Henry...?"
Huh? Oh...it's you...
Today's not a good day...it's nothing but a bad day for me...
"Henry...what is it?"
I slowly looked up and saw my sister's face, staring right at me with a concerned look.
"Oh...it's, um, nothing..." I sighed sadly, looking down at the ground.
"Hey...where's your Captain Dragon outfit?" She asked in concern, sitting down next to her. "You always seem to enjoy playing superheroes..."
"M-Mm...W-Well...I'm just not enthusiastic to play superheroes anymore..." I stated sadly. "I think I've grown tired of playing superheroes..."
"Oh...Okay..." Ari frowned worriedly. "Well...you don't have to keep being sad...I really don't like seeing that frown."
Well...Right now, not after what happened today at school...I don't think I really want to think about it.
"Y-Yeah..." I sighed, feeling depressed.
"...Hey, no need to feel scared." She kissed me on the forehead, earning a smile on my face before looking at her. "Heh heh, see? Told you that I didn't like seeing that frown on your face."
"R-Right..." I smiled softly. "B-But you know Ari...how do you do it? Why do you always try to smile a lot when things are tough...?"
"Because I try as hard as I can..." Ari explained. "You see, I'll admit...I am scared of things and I really get upset with things that I come across or even feel depressed, but I try my best to keep smiling...so that I don't make people like you bro to become all sad..."
"H-Huh?" To...keep on smiling? So that...you don't have to make others feel bad upon seeing you like that? "But why? I-I don't want to trouble you to just keep smiling like that..."
"I-I know bro, but I'm working hard in my schools' ROTC program." Ari stated. "The job says that you have to serve your country, but for me, my job is to save people and have them protected."
"Really?" I asked.
"Yeah, of course." Ari smiled. "I do it because they have to keep living on their life, and if they die too early, they'll never experience much of what good life is out there...It'll be a shame. You should know that those who save shouldn't show fear, anxiety, or cry out. Because the more you do, the more afraid the very people you're trying to save will get. Like you bro..."
"L-Like me...? But...nothing bad happened to me..." At least, only what happened at Kindergarten today...
"Maybe so bro, but even so, if anything happened to you, I'll do my best to be there for you and try my best to make you happy again..." Ari smiled softly. "...That's why...I smile. Because I want to try to help others not to feel bad...not to feel fear...and not feel anything that could set them off in the worse way possible..."
My sis is right...I mean, I'm kinda small but I can be able to fight back and save people too. I need to smile too...so that I can help people to calm down like my sister. I can't let them down...
"O-Okay...But...do you think I can be a hero like you and dad?" I asked curiously. "You know, to one day be a hero to others..."
"Of course, you are special bro. You hear me, special." She poked my chest, making me giggle.
"H-Hey! That tickles!"
"Oh really?" Ari smirked before she tackled me on my bed and began tickling me.
"HAHAHAHAHA! SIS! COME ON!" I laughed, smiling happily. It brought me back out of my depression and fully embraced my way to keep smiling again.
"Come on! Can't your sis give you a good play with her little brother?!" Ari laughed, much to my annoyance and joy.
Mm...Sis...ha ha ha...!
"Hen-Hen! Hen-Hen!" H-Huh? What the-?
"Hen-Hen! Wake up from this planet!"
"Whoa!" I gasped, blinking in surprise upon seeing Satsuki right in front of me. "S-Satsuki...! What the hell is your problem?!"
"You've been spacing out! We were talking about what we're all gonna do tomorrow!" Satsuki cried out.
"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked, leaning against the wall.
Oh right...I think I'm starting to remember. Heh, guess I doze off...
This is the Forge, so we're still here while it's still nighttime. Runa, Mikako, Hiccup and Dusty were still here, along with Satsuki. Although, we were still waiting for someone...
"Seriously, where is he?" Sindri wondered, sitting on the table in his cat form. You would think that he could be here, right? What's taking Jobber so long?
"He might still be out..." Runa sighed. "Knowing him, trying to be pervy at any girls he sees."
"I can't blame him, he's always been like that..." Hiccup rolled his eyes before frowning in concern. "Though...I am worried that he isn't back yet. He's never this late."
Yeah, that is true...Just what is going on?
"...Something is clearly wrong." Mikako spoken. "If he hasn't come back, then something...is wrong..."
"What? But what if he's just late?" Dusty suggested with a meek smile. "I mean, that could be the case, right?"
"No...I think she might be onto something..." Hiccup spoken. "This isn't like Jobber and he still hasn't come back...and I'm really worried about him."
"Aye, I agreed." Gram agreed, closing his eyes. "This isn't like the pervert to not come around and not show up. Isn't that strange?"
"Yeah..." I nodded in agreement. "Looks like our resident pervert could be possibly missing."
"Possibly missing?!" Dusty exclaimed in shock.
"I think so...We should go find him." Runa agreed. "Just where could he be?"
"Let's split up." Hiccup suggested. "That way, we might find him."
"Good idea." I smirked. "Let's just hope he isn't in a strip club."
Heh, he would...and maybe these guys might have one. So far, these guys may not look like it, but they act like it's a modern society. It's...in-genius...Heh heh heh-OW! What the?
"Not funny Henry!" Runa cried out, pulling out a whip. "That's just really nonsense that you were talking about! It's not funny seeing women do all...that!"
"Wait...so does that confirm that you guys have a-"
"Let's just go!" Runa cried out, running out of the Forge.
What? I was just asking?
"Y-You heard her...let's go!" Dusty agreed with an awkward smile before we all head off in our own different ways.
"Henry, you search east! I'll search west!" Hiccup called, running beside me before the two of us quickly split off with Sindri and Gram by my side.
"Squire, we need to be cautious! Your fellow friend could be anywhere!" Gram exclaimed.
"Like we don't know that!" Sindri grunted. "I mean, how can you find a big guy like him?"
"Shut up, you two!" I hissed before looking at the back of the houses. Crap, just where could he gone?! Jobber, just where are you?!
Jobber said that he went to take care of his own business, but right now, it's starting to turn annoying about what's going on right here since he hasn't showed up...So what the fuck?
...Hm? Is that...laughing? An annoying kind of laughter...
"Man! We really got him good!"
"I know, right sis? Ha ha ha, man...What a loser! Can't believe he actually fell for that!"
...Oh my god...Don't tell me that it's them. I glanced over at the center of the town's square and saw the two little devil spawns.
"Hey, aren't those the twins and Snotlout...?" Sindri questioned, spotting them over by the corner as the three were hi-fiving each other.
"Ha! Oh my gods! I can't believe you three actually did that!" Snotlout laughed.
"Way to plan on locking that pervert in the farm!" Ruffnut smirked at her brother.
"Nice job luring him in there, sis!" Tuffnut laughed. "I guess you really are good at something. I mean, only a sucker would like a girl like you."
Damn dude, a little cold there right? And I don't mean the breeze.
WHACK!
"OW!"
Well he had that coming.
"Shut it butt elf, it doesn't matter. At least we locked up that pervert." And this is my time where I enter the scene and try to make them talk. Hmm...but maybe a little scare will do the trick.
Hm? Oh? What's this?
I noticed a small empty bottle glass of wine on the ground...Huh, looks like someone careless dropped it onto the ground. Hmm...Heh, this will do.
"Squire, what are you planning?"
"Shut it Gram. Trust me." I reassured with a wink before grabbing it. "In the meantime, I need you two to try and be quiet."
"Hmph...Very well." Gram huffed, putting himself back into my sheath while Sindri places himself back in my bag.
"Okay, just do what you do naturally..." Sindri shrugs.
"Hmph..." I nodded before a sly smirk appeared on my face.
Now then...Let's have some fun.
"That'll show the big guy to never mess with us!" Snotlout laughed.
"Yeah! Ha, what a muttonhead!" Tuffnut grinned.
"I bet he's sleeping with the yaks!" Ruffnut cackled.
"Well either way, I just hope those suckers ever find out whatever happened to him...! Not...!" Snotlout snorted, laughing alongside his idiot co-horts. As they continued to laugh up about their current little prank, I snucked up against Snotlout and...
BAM!
"AHHH!" Snotlout let out a scream, jumping back upon hearing that loud sound. I used the empty wine bottle and smashed it against the pole that was just near him, breaking it in half with multiple pieces of shards falling down on our feet.
"Well well well, never thought I might encounter you losers here." I smirked, raising the broken bottle right over their faces.
"You?! What do you want?!" Snotlout glared at me, which made me pout and retorted, "Nothing much to see, Snotass. Just walking around the neighborhood till I overheard what you idiots were talking about...Something about Jobber being locked up in a yak farm..."
"Yeah! We totally did that!" Tuffnut snickered.
"I know! It was awesome to teach that pervert a lesson that he'll never forget!" Ruffnut smirked, snickering along with her brother.
"Figured..." I scoffed with a smirk on my face. "You know, you three have a lot of nerve to do that to my friend."
"Friend? Ha! You got to be joking! Since when were you friends with Useless and that pervert along with those other losers?" Snotlout rolled his eyes, crossing his arms. "I thought that you don't want to be around anyone."
"Oh, I do...but those six are an exception and they already gained my trust during my time with them." I stated, raising the broken bottle over his neck. "Besides, we each have something in common that I don't think you alone would ever understand."
"Yeah, like I would understand what you losers are thinking." Snotlout snorted.
"Why bother talking to a bunch of chrome-domes?" Tuffnut rolled his eyes. "Especially if they're being led by Useless?"
How about you start shutting the fuck up before I really slit your throats, you assholes...
"Heh, who want to be around that loser?" Ruffnut snickered.
"That loser happens to be my friend, you dumbasses." I stated with a glare. "And you all better tell me where the hell is this yak farm you idiots put Jobber in, or else I might really have to commit murder..."
"Ha! Like you can try!" Snotlout smirked. "No way someone as scrawny as you can even lay a finger on me!"
"Wanna bet? Because I do remember punching the shit out of you." I reminded with a smirk. "And plus...you don't want to make me mad."
"Oh yeah? Like you could." Tuffnut snickered.
Oh yeah? Well if it's a fight, you want...then it's a fight you three are gonna get.
"Plus, we rather be enjoying our little prank instead of confronting you." Ruffnut rolled her eyes. "Besides, why care for that pervert? He had it coming."
"Really? Let's see how do you assholes think of someone did that to you three?" I questioned. "Then how would you feel to be in Jobber's place?"
"Please, like we could." Snotlout snorted. "Here on Berk, we're the strongest on where it is! Plus, everyone around here respects me!"
"Even his own dad!" Tuffnut added, prompting me to raise a brow. His dad...? "I mean, his dad is the best Viking warrior and has the strongest son to ever have, compared to Useless."
"Really? Is that so?" I questioned.
"You can bet!" Snotlout smirked smugly, filled with arrogance in him. "My dad is a formidable warrior who is said to have slayed many dragons during some raids that came to Berk, and is the former champion of the Thawfest Games! I take a lot after him...!"
...Where have I heard of this before...? It sounds similar to what I know...but...if I'm right about this guy, he's supposed to be Hiccup's cousin, right? Because his last name is Jorgenson, and they're related to us Haddocks by blood-lines...So I take it that his dad might be similar to my uncle...
Why didn't I even see this coming? After all, me and my cousins don't get along. Our relationship is similar to Hiccup and Snotlout's...Hmph.
"Yeah, but is he? To me, I don't think you'll go that far to become as great as him." I retorted bluntly, earning an angry scowl from the Jorgenson boy.
"Shut up! Of course I can be!" Snotlout growled. "I'll be the greatest Viking warrior of all times! Maybe the chief should have made me chief instead of Useless if he isn't gonna be a real Viking!"
"Oh? Well I think not...you scumbag." I scoffed. "I can come up with multiple reasons why, but even so, they're all practically one thing in common; You're a completely fucking idiot."
"WHAT?!" Snotlout yelled.
"It is true!" Tuffnut nodded.
"He really is stupid, well not as stupid as us." Ruffnut shrugged.
"Not helping, you muttonheads!" Snotlout hissed before glaring at my direction. "Like you yourself can prove otherwise! What? You're gonna keep sticking up for Useless?"
"Not all the time...but I think one day that he'll show you what it'll be like to know to never mess with him and not underestimate a 'Hiccup' as you all call him." Which is ironic since that's his name. "What are your excuses?"
"Duh, we worship Loki!" Ruffnut rolled his eyes.
"Yeah! We praise him on a daily basis!" Tuffnut smirked, crossing his arms. "It shows that we do care about him! He's our hero!"
"Kinda bland if you ask me." I commented, earning two dramatic gasps from the two. "Oh what is it?"
"How dare you disrespect Loki!"
"Do you have no shame?! Say you're sorry! Apologize to Loki!"
Unbelievable...these guys are so crazy...
"Well...I promise that I will." I rolled my eyes. "Besides, why are you two so doing this? I mean, you guys are practically similar to Hiccup."
"Hey, we aren't at the same level as Useless!" Tuffnut exclaimed.
"Yeah! I'm not that weak!" Snotlout hissed, causing me to shake my head.
"That's not what I mean...You guys may not know it, or if you do and just want to deny it, I know that you each have problems that I can tell easily." I stated blankly before staring right at the twins. "You two are really stupid that makes anyone who hangs out with you two to get a massive headache, as well as your inability to even pay attention for one second..."
"HEY!"
Yeah, don't give a shit.
"And as for you..." I glared at Snotlout. "You're just an arrogant asshole which will lead to his downfall, and an asshole to his own cousin."
"What? I'm just trying to toughen him up." Snotlout rolled his eyes.
"To me, it looks like you're just abusing him just like everyone else here." I retorted. "If you do care for him, quit being so hard on him...Besides, you should have seen him today on how he handled that Zippleback. Not anyone, not even someone like him, could have done it, you know?"
"Tch, whatever...it was just a one time thing." Snotlout snorted. "Not anything special..."
"Well...I guess you'll be proven wrong." And I mean it. I have a feeling that Hiccup can do it, and he's gonna prove these idiots wrong. "You'll see that no matter what anyone is or what they are, you shouldn't underestimate them..."
"Whatever!" Snotlout exclaimed. "I have to be the best there is! My dad is hoping that I can be the greatest warrior in Jorgenson Clan history!"
Hm? Oh...I'm starting to see what he means...
"So...you're trying to win your dad's approval?" I questioned, earning a shock look from him. "...And bingo was his name-o."
"Who's 'Bingo'?" Ruffnut asked.
"That was a metaphor." I explained.
"Ohhhh...What's a metaphor?" Oh my fucking god...
"Never mind...Anyway, so..." I turned to Snotlout. "You're trying to win his approval, is that right? Hoping that you can be as strong as him?"
Snotlout bit his lips before looking away with an irritated scowl on his face...
Hmph...If that was the case, then I can already see...He's being like this because he wants to be as strong as him and because his father taught him to be like that. If his father is like my uncle, then it would make sense...
"Like I would tell you!" Snotlout exclaimed. "Please, I'll be a great warrior where everyone will one day honor me! To see that I can be the greatest Viking warrior ever!"
"...So in other words, daddy issues?" I smirked, making him flinch. I patted him on the head before saying, "Oh...Poor Snotass, I never knew that. You must feel bad..."
"S-Shut up...!" Snotlout pushed me away, giving me a scowl. I rolled my eyes before I began chuckling at him and said, "It's alright, just dicking around. But anyway, I'm serious..."
"Oh really?" Snotlout sarcastically asked. "You think you know everything?"
"Maybe I do..." I shrugged. "But remember, you shouldn't keep being such an arrogant asshole..."
Well actually, what am I even doing? After so far knowing him, this asshole wouldn't even try...yet.
"Trust me, I think maybe there's a little bit of shred of a heart in you to actually care about Hiccup. You should one day find out that your actions will be your downfall, don't let your arrogance go too much ego..."
"Whatever, it's in my family blood!" Snotlout chuckled. "I...I don't need some scrawny guy like you to tell me that!"
"...Well I wish you good luck on the rest of your dragon training." I sighed, scratching the back of my head. "But I just don't know about you, but I do know that you're just like Hiccup, in a way..."
"What's THAT supposed to mean?!" Snotlout exclaimed.
"...It's obvious, but you're too stubborn to admit it." I scoffed before turning my eyes to the twins. "And as for you two, you two are plain stupid...so I don't get why try...why hang out with the wrong crowd?"
"Like we'll talk!" The two muttonheads exclaimed.
"No, that was a rhetorical question." I stated.
"And we gave you a rhetorical answer." Tuffnut answered. "Duh, and you call yourself the smart one."
First off, no, no I don't. Second, good lord that I have to be talking to them, did I?
"A-Anyway..." I sighed irritably. "Knowing you two, I know that you two are so dumb to even join up with the wrong crowd. I know that you two only taught him because Snotlout and anyone else says bad things about Hiccup and you two always seem to always add your own opinions with them and even agree with what they say...Besides, so far in Dragon Training, you two always fight with each other, making things difficult for you two to even pass."
"Uh...what?" The two muttonheads raised brows in confusion, causing me to face-palm. See this? This is what I'm talking about.
"You know what? Never mind...I just wonder why you two are so fucking crazy..." I sighed.
"Uh, because it's who we are." Ruffnut crossed his arms. "We always joy causing mayhem and destruction, it's who we are."
"Plus, it always bring us a laugh." Tuffnut laughed. "Well, me laughing right now doesn't count...does it?"
It's who we are...Is that even true? They always keep acting like that despite what others might say about these three about their stupidity, but yet they keep going at it...I guess in a way that they are strong.
...No, that's probably just my imagination.
"Besides, you could always join our side and ditch my cousin's side." Snotlout smirked. "Not like he'll do any better if you keep remaining with him."
"Thanks, but no thanks, I rather not. Especially with assholes like you..." I rolled my eyes, putting the broken bottle down. "And plus, I guess I got you three very easily."
"Tch, yeah right..." Snotlout scoffed. "A guy like you didn't scare me one bit."
Oh? Is that right? Well...
"Well I beg to differ..." I remarked slyly. "Heh, maybe you are, even at Hiccup. Who knows? We might up getting your underwear in a knot."
"Shut up!" Snotlout hissed angrily. "You trying to start something?! Fine by me! From day one, you've been-"
At that moment, I grabbed his jaw to shut him up as I gave him a smirk, a scary one as a matter of fact. "No, now, Snotlout. If you want to fight, actions must come before words."
"H-hey! Let me go!" Snotlout growled, smacking my arm away. "You trying to start a fight or something?!"
"Maybe I am..." I grinned slyly. "What's wrong Snotlout? Does the itty-bitty mouse want to play?"
"I'm literally taller than you!" Snotlout stomped his foot and attempted to punch me, but I grabbed his fist before using my other arm to grab his jaw, squeezing it tightly.
"Now you listen here, touch me and you're dead." I smirked. "Trust me, you don't think I can fight? Well not in you guys' way, but I know how to fight in my way...Something you idiots lacked. Besides, I can't pulverize you bastards in a minute."
Heh, this will be a piece of cake...After all, this will be a great chance to teach you a lesson about-
"Henry!" Huh?! I glanced over and saw the young Johansson girl, Runa, staring at me in shock. Oh boy...
"Hey Runa..." I greeted, blinking in surprise. "What is it?"
"What is it?! I should be asking you!" Runa cried out, running over to us and pushing the both of us back. "Henry, Snotlout, don't even try and fight!"
"What? He started it!" Snotlout pointed out, earning an irritated glare from me. Excuse me? "He just came out of nowhere and just tried to fight me!"
"I tried to defend myself, and plus, scary you idiots away." I smirked.
"I don't know, we just stood there and watch the fight!"
"Yeah, who doesn't want to see someone beat up Snotlout for our amusement?"
Of course you two dumbasses would agree with that.
Suddenly...
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
"OW!" Me and the three doofus' hissed at the pain from being whipped by Runa, who glared at each of us sternly.
"Enough! Fighting isn't gonna solve anything!" Runa exclaimed.
"Course it does. What you expect?" Snotlout snorted. "We're Vikings, everything is solved through violence...Sorry if you didn't get the message, beautiful."
Runa gave him a stern look before she took out her whip and...
"OWOWOWOWOWOWOOOOOOOOOOOW!"
Ah...and nobody gave two shits about him...
Snotlout Owned Counter: 5-6-7-8-9-10-11
"You were saying?" Runa sneered at the young Jorgenson boy. Snotlout began letting out whimpers, rubbing his butt from all the whipping he's gotten.
"O-Okay...Okay..." Snotlout whined, slowly getting up. "You...win..."
Hmph...glad that you enjoyed it.
"Ha ha ha! Nice!" Tuffnut laughed.
"It feels so nice seeing him like that!" Ruffnut agreed.
"You...!" Snotlout gritted his teeth, clenching his fist at them in frustration.
"I just hope you learned to leave me alone." I smirked before looking down at his pants...Oh..."And, please, go change..."
"...Shut up Henry."
Snotlout Owned Counter: 12
"As for you...!" Runa glared at my direction. "You and I are gonna talk later...As for now, let's just get out of here."
"Right...Besides, I found out where Jobber is." I said, earning her attention. "Come on, let's go."
"Mm..." Runa slightly rose a brow at me before shrugging, but not before she gave a death glare at the three and said, "If I found out that you three had something to do with why Jobber's gone, then you're done for."
"Y-Yes ma'am..." Snotlout gulped before running off, along with the twins, who still had those big smirks on their faces before Ruffnut commented, "Yeah yeah, we got it! Though what you did to Snotlout? Heh, nice one."
Runa simply looked away and scratched her cheek, blushing a bit before she turned away and began walking off alongside me. Heh, I bet she's pretty upset with me right now.
"Henry...What were you doing?" Runa turned to me with a stern look. "And no excuses, were you trying to get yourself killed?"
"What? I could have take him down." I rolled my eyes. "He's Snotlout, and knowing him so far, he's just a moron."
"Henry..." Runa shook her head. "Look, he may not like it, but Snotlout is pretty strong. You shouldn't underestimate people that easily, and picking on fights...it's not a good thing."
"Really? Then what about you guys? You always seem to try and fight off the dragons." I stated.
"I know...but..." Runa let out a sigh. "Henry, what happened?"
"Apparently, they locked Jobber from a little prank of theirs into the yak farm." I explained. "He's trapped in there."
"In the yak farm?" Runa rose a brow. "They trapped him there? Ugh, that's so disgusting..."
Yeah, I can already imagined...
"But anyway...Henry...was that really necessary to scare them like that?" Runa changed the subject, looking at me with a raised brow. "I mean, sure they're jerks and maybe they deserved it...but that far, even nearly threatening their life and about to fight them."
"Hey, it's just how I am." I shrugged. "I see that you think fighting isn't always gonna be the answer, Runa. However, let met tell you something..." I gave her a smirk. "You need to know that words won't go into anyone's mind. Like those guys, I think maybe I was starting to get to them when I was telling them about their flaws, but then they slowly began to grow frustrated and their stubbornness prevented them from wanting to hear more of it, almost issuing a fight. So yeah..."
"I get what you mean..." Runa sighed. "But...I'm just worried that sometime you might one day get into a fight that you'll one day get yourself hurt in."
"Oh? You worried about me?" I smirked before getting lashed out by her whip twice. "Ow! Ow!"
"Not funny Henry!" Runa cried out, giving me a frustrated look. "Look, you must know that not every fight is gonna be you winning in them, and if you go into dangerous fight, you might one day get yourself hurt or worse!"
"...Are you telling me that I'm just not in the right?" I questioned, glancing down at my feet.
Not in the right...Heh, that shitty thing reminded me back then.
"...No, I think maybe you were." Huh? What? "Maybe your words nearly got to them, and nearly trying to start up a fight didn't seem to work, but you were in the right by making them tell you where's Jobber and trying to see about their flaws. I'm not sure...I guess you were right but not wrong..."
...Okay, that made no sense at all.
"You don't even know what you're talking about." I huffed, placing my hands in my pocket. "But...I think I get what you're saying...I understand..."
"I'm just...Henry, you don't think violence is gonna lead you to the right answer?" Runa rose a brow. "I just...Well, I'm concern for you. I mean..."
"...Don't worry, I'll be alright." I smirked. "Besides, I don't care what method I use is wrong as I realize what I think about and what my goal is right..."
...Okay, maybe that sounded better in my head because that right there sounded like I'm a bad guy right there.
Runa seemed to realize that as well before letting out a heavy sigh, "Henry...You are unbelievable..."
"Well at least I'm just saying. Words aren't gonna work sometimes with people like them." I shrugged. "Other than that, you yourself are being the hypocrite when you whupped Snotlout's ass."
"O-Oh...right..." Runa blushed, looking away. "L-Look! It...Okay, you're right, I have no room to talk."
You think?
"A-Anyway...Henry, I sorta see what you were doing. You were just doing this for a friend..." Runa sighed. "But still, would risking your life would make your friend happy?"
...Maybe she has a point. But then again, I wouldn't know what it's like about friendship. So...Well...I guess.
"Alright...You win." I shrugged. "I see your way, and I won't do that again...for now." I let out a cheeky smirk, earning an eye roll from her before she nudged me in the gut. "O-Ow!"
"And that's for just being plain stupid." Runa huffed before asking, "So Jobber's in...?"
"Well..."
After hearing those idiots talk about locking him in a yak farm, I realize now that we're in deep trouble...Why? Let me repeat myself: Yak farm. You realize what's in there? Not yaks...it's what smells something that came out of yak...and I'm really aren't gonna enjoy this.
Later
"This is the spot."
It wasn't that hard since the yak farm seems to be the common place here on Berk, and Hiccup happened to know every part of the island.
"Well...Maybe he couldn't be in there, right?" Dusty chuckled nervously.
"Do not count, Mistress Dusty." Gram poked out of his sheath, staring down at her. "I can almost sense him...the pervert is still in there."
"He's right...and plus, I think I can hear someone silently wailing." Sindri added, popping out of the bag.
"That must be Jobber..." Runa sighed.
"Come on gang, let's go." Hiccup gestured us to go over to the yak farm. We walked over to the yak farm before hearing a loud screeching sound.
"AAHHHH! STOP IT! GET AWAY ME YOU SACK OF FUR!"
Yep...that's him right now.
"Jobber! Quick, save him Hiccup!" Satsuki cried out. "Save him Hiccup! Save him for Satsuki!"
"R-Right...Henry, do you mind?" Hiccup pleaded.
"Mm...Sure." I nodded back to him before the two of us walked over and took down the bar that was blocking the door, slowly opening the doors to reveal...
"AAAAHHHH!" Whoa! What the?! Something was blasted out of the farm and skidded straight into the grassy fields, nearly making a hole for themselves.
Ooh...I think I know where this is going.
"Jobby!" Yep, should have fucking called that. Satsuki quickly rushes over to the hole before seeing Jobber, who slowly got up from the ground.
"Ooh...That really hurt...Ow..." Yeah, good to see you too man.
"Jobber! There you are!" Hiccup called, rushing over to him before sniffing in the air. "Oh gods..."
"What?" Jobber asked, slowly getting up from the ground. "What's wrong?"
Yeah Hiccup, what is...
...Oh my god, what the fuck is that?
"Ugh! Jobber?!" Runa shouted in disgust. "Oh, what is that digusting smell?!"
"Oh...that." Jobber chuckled nervously, scratching the back of his head. "Yeah...I guess being in there for almost till midnight makes ya reek of yak dung, eh?"
"Eek!" Dusty scrunched her nose, hoping to block the smell. "Jobber, please get rid of the smell!"
"What? Oh come on, but I just got the smell on me!" Wait what?
"Wait...you don't want to take a bath to get rid of it?" I rose a brow. "You do realize that smelling like that can lead to others ditching you more often than you are due to your pervy status."
"So what? It marks the smell of the true warrior." Jobber chuckled, patting his chest with a cocky smile. "But then again, thanks for getting me out of there. I swear that yak was gonna dump me with its-"
"Please don't finish that sentence." Runa groaned. "And you are gonna handle it."
"Jobby!" Satsuki cried out, wrapping her arms around him. "Satsuki misses you! Where were you?! You were nearly gone till delivering that message to the audience!"
I'm sorry what? What audience? Is she...Nah, don't listen to the crazy clown girl?
"Oh boy...Satsuki..." With a pervy grin, Jobber poked her left butt cheek and said, "Heh heh, thanks for caring for me you guys..."
"Oh my Thor..." Sindri gagged. "This is just weird seeing the two of them hugged."
"Do not forget she touched a dirty Viking. Have these people have no shame?" Gram sighed in exasperation. "It makes me wonder if the people in your time are acting...less-Viking like, squire."
Kinda...ish.
"Ahem." We all glanced at Mikako, who stood next to Runa with a quiet look. "May we try and force him to take a bath?"
"Wait what? Come on ladies, I already been through a lot...!" Jobber exclaimed. "I was tricked by Ruffnut wanting to expose herself for me and locked me in that yak farm!"
"So wait...you're telling me that you were locked up because of you being a deviate...?" Runa rose a brow, scowling a bit.
Jobber seemed to realize that he was starting to grow sheepish and nervous before squeaking out, "Eh...yes?"
"...Get him?" Runa turned to Mikako and Dusty, who both nodded before they each gave glares at the resident pervert.
"Get him." Dusty and Mikako agreed.
"W-Wait...!" Jobber gulped before turning to me and Hiccup. "Come on you guys, can you help a guy?!"
"Girls, calm down." Hiccup frowned in concern. "Please calm down and let's think this over..."
"Actually Hiccup, let them do it. Besides..." I let out a smirk. "After all, even perverts need to learn their lesson."
"HEY!" Hey, I meant what I said so fuck you.
"Oh boy..." Satsuki pouted. "Oh well, if Satsuki can't beat them, Satsuki might as well join them!"
"Oh come on...! Why do you guys like to do this to me...?!" Jobber whined.
"Because you have no morals, young one." Gram shut him up, glaring sternly at his direction. "At least squire has some morals and that's saying much about it."
"Jeez, thanks..." I rolled my eyes, shaking my head.
"Well...uhh..." Jobber chuckled nervously before seeing the death threats of the girls. "...Oh no-"
And this is the part where we don't see this scene. But to let you all know, then you must know...
...Jobber is fucked.
Later
"NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! COME ON LADIES!"
Yep, that's the sound of Jobber taking a bath while the girls beat him up. Luckily, Mikako somehow prepared a bath tub in time while beating the ever living shit of him.
"Hey Henry..." Hm? Oh it's Hiccup...I guess I didn't see him. Must have come out of the shop to not see what the girls are doing to him. It's a good thing that we're out here...
"Sup Hiccup, what's up?" I asked curiously. "Not interested onto Jobber getting the boot?"
"That and I thought I could use some fresh air." Hiccup shrugged before standing next to me. "So...Runa kinda told me what you did to Snotlout, Ruff, and Tuff."
"Heh, like it?" I smirked. "I really scared the shit out of them."
"Yes, I know..." Hiccup nodded. "Henry, why do you like doing that?"
Why? Hmm...That's a good question. I haven't really thought of that. Well because I believe I just want to teach them a lesson again to let them know to never bully a kid like me or my friends.
"I guess...I overheard them locking up Jobber, and how they were still treating you like a joke." I shrugged. "Besides...I know that I'm in the right."
Or maybe I'm in the wrong...I don't know anymore...
"...Well..." Hiccup let out a sigh. "To be fair, I don't know anymore..."
"Hm? Is this about Toothless and the other dragons?" I raised a brow, staring at him in confusion. Hiccup let out a nod before he began his explanation.
"Well...I guess I'm conflicted on whether or not what I'm doing is right or wrong..." Hiccup frowned sadly. "If anyone found out about this, then I can already imagined how they would react and wouldn't listen..."
Not wrong there...
"I guess..." I shrugged.
"I just...don't know. If what we're doing is right or wrong..." Hiccup scratched the back of his head.
"Well...I don't know what to say." I sighed. "I think what you're doing is right despite it being wrong in many ways due to everyone being enemies with dragons. However, even doing the wrong methods can lead to be ring if you know what you're doing..."
"Thanks." Hiccup smiled. "You know Henry, I never knew that much about you...Say, do you know something similar to this?"
Hm? Something similar? You mean our situation?
Upon seeing my confused face, Hiccup clarified for me by saying, "I meant...have you ever done something so bad but for a good reason but later faced the consequences?"
Oh...Well yeah...
"...I actually do." I grimaced, feeling my anger. "Hey Hiccup...have I ever told you or the others about why I moved to Snogard Falls?"
"Hm? No, I don't think so." Hiccup shook his head. "So was it something about getting closer with your family after...?"
"...That's part of the reason." I sighed. "Not just to forget what happened two years ago, as well as trying to get closer with my family...it also involved of my suspension from school there."
"Suspended?" Hiccup turned to me with a shocked look. "What did you...do?"
"It's...a long story..."
It was something...that I never wished to talk about. But I thought I could at least tell them, or at least, one of them. Boy...it may have been a while since then, but heck, why not? After all...it's one of my scars in life that made me despise adults...
"Heh heh..." I slowly let out a sly smirk. "Let me tell you the story of how I despised adults like your father..."
"Huh?" Hiccup blinks in confusion before seeing the smirk on my face. "Something tells me that I'm not gonna like this, right?"
"Trust me...you're gonna learn something from me." I chuckled. "The day where I learned to never bother to trust them ever again...I mean after he insulted her."
"Henry..." Hiccup frowned, realizing what I was talking about.
Hm? What is that look? Is he...actually concern? Heh, no need for me. Now then...let's begin.
"Squire, take a look!" Hm? What? I noticed a faint glow before looking down and saw my bracelet glowing. "Your bracelet, I dare say that it's trying to show us something..."
"It is...?" I asked in surprise before it started to glow more, blinding me and Hiccup. "Whoa...!"
"N-Ngh..." H-Huh? What in the world?
"Henry...?" I slowly opened my eyes, seeing Hiccup slowly uncovering his arms, slowly taking his surroundings. "Wait...where are we?"
"Where are what...?" Wait...is that a locker? I've seen that locker before...it couldn't be, right?
"Henry, look!" Huh? I slowly turned to what Hiccup was pointing before seeing...
Me...and...my old teacher.
"Is that you Henry?" Hiccup asked. "I think that recognize that hoodie anywhere..."
Makes sense for you considering that I never really showed you guys what I look like. Well...not that I wouldn't even show you.
"Yeah..." I nodded grimly.
"Hm? Who is that guy?" Hiccup noticed the man walking by next to me as my past self and that man were walking down the halls. "Is that your teacher?"
"Yeah..." I didn't know what else to say, but sat there and just watched this. Did my bracelet do this? Is it showing me my past experience and included Hiccup to it?
"Wait...your faces, it's all darkened..." Hiccup frowned, earning a confused look before seeing the man's face, seeing how darkened his face was, and only showed his mouth, not the eyes and barely the nose. "Wonder why it's like that?"
Same...is this bracelet defective or something? Or maybe...it doesn't want Hiccup to learn the truth yet about my true self?
"Don't know, but I can tell you one thing and you're right." I frowned, narrowing my eyes at the man walking next to me. "That guy...is dead to me."
"Your own teacher...?" Hiccup turned to me in confusion. "Does this mean...what we're seeing...is something from your memories?"
I slightly nodded before turning back to see my past self staring at the old man that was accompanying him.
"Henry, you're right!" I can still hear that bright voice of his...Acting so cheerful but I saw through him, his own selfishness. "Though you are somewhat anti-social, and you have your share with bully problems, including what happened to your sister..."
He placed a hand on my past self's shoulder, before giving him a thumbs-up. "...As long as you're in the right, I'll be on your side!"
Yeah, sure you would...
And look at myself, giving that look. Those eyes sparkling a bit with hope, and smiling back...
...Why? Why did I...?
"Henry...did this...really happen?" Hiccup asked in surprise.
"Uh, yeah." I shrugged uncomfortably. "He was someone I thought I could once trust again, but I let my naivety happen again..."
"Huh?" Hiccup blinked in confusion before the scene changes to me beating the ever-living shit out of his bullies.
"What's the matter?! You're scared, huh?! Well you should be! Never mess with me ever again! Do you hear understand?!" Look at myself...Acting all cocky and a little crazy at the time. If you're thinking because I did it for fun, or in self-defense...it was neither. It was for one of my classmates.
"H-Henry..." Hiccup rose a brow at me. "Going a bit too far?"
"Yeah yeah, I get it. I'm a dick." I rolled my eyes before gazing at my other self, getting up at the unconscious bully before helping out my classmate. He was quite small and timid, but despite size, he was a grade above me.
"Hey, you alright?" The boy nodded fearfully before my past self added, "Good...Hey, don't worry about that guy nor me. You're safe, that's all that matters."
"So this is what you meant..." Hiccup scratched his chin before turning to me, "You fought a kid...simply to protect someone."
"Well yeah...is it that wrong?" I questioned, feeling a strange weird sort of worry in me.
"No...I mean, you beat someone up despite you're gonna get in trouble but for a right idea." Hiccup shook his head. "To be honest, I might've done the same...but for the fighting, I think it would've been me beaten to a pulp like you did to that guy..."
Huh...he isn't upset...Heh, I guess he really is my ancestor.
"Huh?" Hm? We looked back at my past self speaking with the timid Sophomore, who spoken about something. "I'm in the right here. What's wrong with saving a bullied student?"
So stupid...so stupid...so stupid...
The scene then flashed to the classroom, and directly at the teacher's scowling face.
"No, Haddock! No matter how you look at it, you're in the wrong!" He scolded me...scolded me like he was trying to hide away his own faults.
"Uh?" My past self flinched, feeling shocked by this. The teacher's scowl started going deeper, like any scowl I've seen in my life.
"Have you lost your mind? Where do you get off, injuring the best student in Year 3?"
"Huh? No, wait, sir I-"
"Do you know what you've just done?! One of my star students that you just gotten beaten up is now getting my ass sued by his parents due to your intolerance!"
"B-But sir...I was just doing what-"
"No, you were doing for your own goddamn sake! If he flunk his entrance exams, then it's off my head because of you!"
"What do you mean? I did because one of your 'star students' beaten up one of your own students and you did nothing!"
"Hey, not my fault that kid can't learn to defend himself." Look at him acting all cocky and smug. Like it doesn't matter...Is he messing with me? Is this how I felt back then. I honestly forgotten about that feeling.
"What was that?" Past Henry looked at him in disbelief.
"He's just a runt like you, he should at least learn how to fight. All I do is simple: Teach you kids, suspend you kids, and I can even report to the principal and expel you from the start. I just hope you're happy but this conversation will be continued with your parents."
"This is just..." Hiccup gulped, feeling a pain of anger in him. I can see it through his eyes. "I just can't believe in this..."
I know what you mean...but you don't have to feel that way for me, man.
Henry widens his eyes in shock while the teacher scoffs at him.
"Wow...did you go so low all because of your sister's death? At least she was tolerable unlike you. Makes me wonder how your parents raised you..."
You don't know anything...you don't know what hell I have to endured...Why am I even seeing this?
"...You don't know anything..."
"H-Huh?"
My past self glares at the teacher darkly with cold dead eyes that could give murderous intent as the scene quickly changes...
"Oh no..." Hiccup widened his eyes, seeing the destruction of the classroom, watching all of this and saw my past self walking out of the classroom with a solemn look with a hint of anger and resentment through him. The teacher was on the ground, scared stiff of what he just witnessed.
This is just one of those scars...the scars I have to endure when being myself...Now he's dead to me...Because despite what I've done is wrong, I had a right reason. It was that son of a bitch screwed me over.
"Henry, did this seriously happen...?" Hiccup looked back at me with a surprised look.
"...Yeah..."
So much for being on my side, and now this...
"I-I'm so sorry that happened to you..." There's no need to apologize Hiccup. It just happens...to me, at least.
"It's okay..." I sighed, frowning. "This is just something I learned to never trust corrupted adults like them..."
"...But even so, you had to go through that and was blinded by your fury." Hiccup frowned before placing a hand on my shoulder. "I understand...Besides, to be honest, maybe I would done that in your situation."
...Yeah, maybe you would.
Suddenly, my bracelet began glowing again before we were blinded by a bright light...!
"Ngh..." I groaned, opening my eyes before looking around, finding ourselves back in front of the Forge. "Oh, we're back here..."
"Yeah..." Hiccup groaned, shaking his head. "So...what did we just saw ourselves?"
"That was a memory." Gram spoken as he pops out of my sheath. "It appears that Henry's bracelet has the power to not just trace things from the heart, or create any golden shield spells, but it also seems to show the user's memories..."
But why do that? Who's the genius to even come up with that idea when making this thing?
"I guess so Gram..." Hiccup scratched the back of his head before turning to me, "And if that was the case, then what we saw was true. You were trying to defend someone despite knowing the consequences of getting in trouble, but even so, that was for a right reason."
Mm...Yeah, for a right reason despite what I did to his bully was something troubling for everyone.
"Yeah..." I nodded. "That involved in my suspension. You should've seen the look on my parents' face, disappointed in me while also telling me that we were gonna move to Snogard Falls to forget about that incident."
"I see..." Hiccup nodded. "I can understand why now...Where you involved in many fights other than fighting another bully at your new home?"
"Nah, just that one..." I shrugged. "Beaten up for guys at the same time back at my last school."
"F-Four guys...?" Hiccup grew flabbergasted upon hearing that before sighing, "Henry, I think you should ease your fighting..."
"Why? Scared that I might scare my opponents?" I snorted with a smirk. "I fight because I do it for people. I told Runa about this that I did it for you guys..."
"I know...but still, it worries us." Hiccup shrugged. "But even so, I understand your motivation...You fight just for self-defense on yourself, but now, you fight for us..."
"Yeah, I guess..." I shrugged, feeling embarrassed at that. "What's your point?"
"Well..." Hiccup gave me a smile, placing a hand on my shoulder. "I think I know what you mean by 'What's right and what's wrong' judging by your actions. People sorta mistakes you for what you're doing is wrong because of your actions and how you act, however as long as you continue on the path that will really help everyone then you're right...I think I get it after seeing that."
Ah, see? Told ya that I would teach ya there. Think about it for a second...Hiccup is learning much about how to train a dragon, by training Toothless, and it's wrong to even interact or befriend a dragon, resulting you into being a traitor, but tell me...after learning about the true nature of a dragon, do you call that 'wrong'? No, Hiccup's intentions are for the right reason because those dragons aren't what people say about them. Like me, I helped that kid from danger despite me knowing that fighting will result in suspension, including what I did to scare the pants off that teacher...But, it was worth it to teach those guys to leave that kid alone...I had a right intention.
Just don't stop believing in your own paths to your dreams, and even if you have to break the rules, you gotta earn that chance of freedom for yourself and for everyone. It just doesn't benefit you, but yourself.
"Maybe you guys are right..." Sindri hops on my shoulder, sitting on it in his cat form. "I mean, we still got time to train those guys and learn every single bit about them. If that happens, you guys might learn a lot about those guys. Trust me, it could happen! Earlier today, everyone in town was talking about Hiccup's little victory with the Zippleback, and if you guys keep passing each lesson of Dragon Training..."
"We'll become famous and Hiccup won't be bullied again..." I muttered, widening my eyes.
"Yes, that is true." Gram nodded. "But don't let the fame get to you. Besides, you all still need work on your training. That includes you with me, squire."
"Yeah yeah, I get it." Don't need to remind me man.
"Good." Gram nodded. "Now then, Hiccup..." Gram turns to him with a serious look. "Are you ready to take this challenge? It's a bit risky, but I think maybe you have the potential to do this. You and your friends?"
"...Yeah. I'm ready." Hiccup made a determined look. "I'm not gonna let something like this ever happen again. That's why I'm gonna try to work hard in order to help everyone..."
"And I'll be by your side." I nodded as the two of us shook hands. "Don't worry man, we got this."
"I know we can..." Hiccup smiled. "Oh, and Henry...Thank you."
"For what?" I asked in confusion.
"For standing up for me all those times, you really aren't what others say about you." Hiccup chuckled. "I know that you are a great person. We'll do this even though this is breaking the rules of our traditions, what we're doing is gonna help everyone stop this war."
Who knows, maybe you're right. This could work for everyone...Breaking your tribe's traditions, yeah it's wrong. But learning about our dragons real feelings and the real truth behind this war, now that's right.
"...Yeah." I smiled softly before the two of us hugged.
This feeling...it's satisfaction. Because I'm satisfied that we're able to grow even closer.
Though...about this lesson of being right and wrong...I wonder...if helping my sister rest in peace is a right or wrong thing? Well I wouldn't know till I try? Hm? What do I mean by that?
...It's living my life for her, that's all. That's something people do for the dead, it's a really nice thing, ya know.
"HICCUP! HELP! THESE GIRLS ARE TRYING TO GET TO ME!"
Oh boy...
"Oh Jobber..." Hiccup groaned. "Come on Henry, let's hurry..."
"Right..." I sighed before the two of us began heading back to the shop. "Oh, and Hiccup...?"
"Yeah?" Hiccup looked back at me with a confused look. "What is it?"
"...You should smile more often. You look nice and awesome to express yourself more." I smiled.
"Ah..." Hiccup blinked in shock before smiling softly. "Yeah, same goes for you Henry."
"Heh..." I nodded with a soft smile. "Thanks Hiccup."
"Don't mention it Henry. After all, that's what friends are for, right?"
"...Yeah." I smiled. "And who knows? Maybe I can help ya out with a certain shield-maiden that can learn to love ya.
With that, Hiccup began heading inside of the shop, leaving me along with these two.
"Mm-hmm..." Hm? What's up with him?
"Gram, what's up?" I asked in confusion.
"Oh nothing, but I see you are getting closer with Hiccup." Gram smiled. "Maybe test your bonds when you two fight."
"...Yeah, sure." I rolled my eyes. "My bonds with them are growing stronger."
"Well yeah." Sindri nodded. "He can say what he wants you to say, but still, isn't it at least cool that you guys are doing this? Fighting for your freedom, I mean."
"Heh, maybe." I shrugged with a smile before glancing at the two of them. "Maybe you guys are right, and I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings us."
Tomorrow...what will it brings us tomorrow...I'll tell you what'll happen.
Tomorrow will be a new day for us. A day where we train dragons.
"Heh, good." Sindri chuckled. "Maybe I can eat some delicious fish here..."
"That is quite selfish of you, feline." Gram spat in disgust.
"Hey! At least I have something to do unlike you!" Sindri scoffed. "Unlike you training Henry with your powers."
"Are you dare mocking me?!" Gram exclaimed.
"Yes, yes I am." Sindri glared at him. "Maybe you could learn to quit with that accent, golden-boy."
"You devious little feline...!" Gram yelled out in frustration. "What you lack is respect!"
"What you lack is being a nuisance!"
"Ahem." I cleared my throat, giving the two a stern glare. "You know, what you two are lacking...is a heart."
"EXCUSE ME?!"
"WHAT?!"
Yeah, I said it. Deal with it.
To Be Continued
I'm really sorry for not posting this as my per usual timing. I have a lot of time in college and...well...I just have some issues going through with them. Just trying to adjust my scheduling, but I'll try to finish this as fast as I can.
