Hi people, the updates are going to be irregular, but I'll try for at least twice a week.
Guest: Thank you for your review, sorry if Astrid seemed too OOC for you, I wanted her to be a little nicer in my story.
The camera pans over a dark, stormy sea. It turns to a single island, Berk.
Hiccup (V.O.): This, is Berk. It's twelve days North of Hopeless
A few vikings jumped at Hiccup's voice coming out of the screen, a few were looking between Hiccup and the screen, trying to figure out if he was talking.
And a few degrees South of freezing to death. It's located solidly in the Meridian of Misery.
Stoick looked over at Hiccup, "Is that what you think of our home?" Hiccup winced, "Erm...umm...well, yeah kinda" Several vikings glared at him.
The camera pans over rolling hills to reveal a small village overlooking the ocean
Hiccup (V.O.) (CONT'D): My village. In a word, sturdy. And it's been here for seven generations, but every single building is new.
"Oh, gee, I wonder why?" Snotlout said sarcastically
The camera drifts closer, circling
Hiccup (V.O.) (CONT'D): We have fishing, hunting, and a charming view of the sunsets.
The only problem are the pests.
Hiccup winces as he remembers the things he said about dragons before he met Toothless.
You see, while most places have mice or mosquitos
We have...
"What do we have?" It was the twins, of course.
"Give it a minute guys, I'm sure I'll say it in a minute" Hiccup said
Sheep graze peacefully on a hillside.
Suddenly one is snatched by a black, clawed foot.
The Vikings growled angrily a their livestock being stolen.
CUT TO:
INSIDE STOICKS HOUSE-CONTINUOUS
A door is pulled open... just as a dragon flies directly toward it, BLASTING FIRE.
The fire shoots through the boards of the door, illuminating a thin, gangly teen, Hiccup.
Hiccup: ...Dragons.
"Well, yeah, we know about dragons, Hiccup. We thought you meant something else" Tuffnut said
"Yeah, we're smarter than that" Ruffnut continued
EXT. STOICKS HOUSE
Hiccup reopens the still sizzling door, as he leaps off the front step.
He weaves through the chaotic, crowds as Vikings pour out of their houses, ready for a fight.
HICCUP (V.O.): Most people would leave, Not us. We're Vikings.
"HEY?! WHAT'S THAT MEAN?" The Vikings shouted at Hiccup. Hiccup raised an eyebrow, "What do you think it means?" Silence
We have stubbornness issues
"Never mind"
ON HICCUP darting through alleys, staying under eaves, making his way through the battle.
"Why can't you just stay inside?" Stoick asked wearily, "Because I had to go to work" Hiccup replied "Also, the house was on fire"
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D): My name's Hiccup. Great name, I know. But it's not the worst.
"What could be worse than 'Hiccup'" Snotlout cackled, Hiccup blushed and looked down. Astrid, however, glared at Snotlout and said "Snotlout?" He immediately snapped around "Yeah, babe?" He saw Astrid's fist flying towards his face "Shut up" She said sharply.
Parents believe a hideous name will frighten off gnomes and trolls. Like our charming Viking demeanor wouldn't do that.
"Hey?!"
Dragons fly back and forth, dodging axes, bolas, and blasting those who threw them. A heavy set Viking gets tossed in an explosion, knocking Hiccup to the ground.
VIKING (FIERCE): Arrrggghhhh (cheery, insane) Mornin'!
The Viking blushes bright red as everyone laughs.
Hiccup scrambles to his feet and continues to rush past gigantic men and women.
Alright, I'm gonna leave it there for now, I'll try to update as soon as possible.
Please review and follow
Peace out- Princess Night
