This is the third part of my story, I am also seeing a lot of views on my story even some from china like I'm stood here like "... 12 views from china... ok where's my bed I need to rest my brain" so a big thank you to the people who read my stories and I would also like to note I'm going to be going through proof reading my stuff because its just embarrassing with how many typos I have. I'm so sorry.

But in this story I'm going to be working on personalities and character connections!

Disclaimer (once again) - I do not own HTTYD (apart from my own little fella in there)

P.S- I would like to address all the readers who don't publish anything, if you have ever published something you can understand how important reviews are so I ask on my knees (not really but you get the idea) that you consider a review and not just on mine on other people's posts because it just might bring out another chapter faster. Anyway enough of that he says.

Hope you enjoy!

The moon was already up before hiccup got home, he tried to enter his house without alerting his dad to his presence. But the fact that they had a very creaky door didn't help. hiccup was just about to run upstairs and into bed. But of course his father was sitting in the middle of the room watching everything he did, "Son" Stoick said with a menacing tone.

Hiccup froze on the spot trying to come up with a clever excuse to his late entry "Dad, I didn't wan-, well I thought you were in bed so I didn't want to wake you up."

Stoick's face was a picture "By the gods it looks like you've just seen Odin's ghost?" he questioned

Hiccup fidgeted on the spot " sureee that's one way to put it..." remembering every teeth in that's dragons head and the menacing roar it made.

"well sit" Stoick ordered "I heard what happened in dragon training last week, and from what Gobber told me is that you couldn't even win a fight with a barn door! So I have decided that you'll do special training sessions with Astrid and Chaz." Hiccups face beamed with happiness at the sound of Astrid's name and he could have a further chance of proving himself to her but what was most important was that he could have more time to be with her, but Chaz might be a bit of a problem. Hiccup knew Chaz was a better Viking than him in mostly everyway but he also knew that their friendship was a 'mutual friendship' between them. After a long and mostly one sided talk about the dragon training course, Hiccup said he was going to bed and walked off to bed with a smile on his face.

Meanwhile at the Hofferson's house Astrid was no where near as happy as Hiccup was. "YOUR MAKING ME DO WHAT!" the blonde screamed "THAT BOY BREAKS LIKE A TWIG AND YOU WANT ME TO TRAIN WITH HIM!" her enraged emotions screamed. On top of training for the arena I now have to teach this bag of bones with help from Chaz, just great! Astrid stormed outside letting the cold air engulf her, she threw her axe against a wall as she collapsed into a seat and scoffed "just perfect, I now have to do 'special training sessions' with the lover boy and with help from mr reserved" Gods I feel like I could jump into the mouth of a monstrous nightmare whole! She stood up and looked over at hiccup's house over in the distance and stood there with submission in her eyes "never mind" she idlely said and walked back into her home.

The night went on pretty fine until tomorrow morning when their first training session was due. Hiccup was up the first and round at Astrid's house before the entire village was up and of course Astrid was sat out back, as always, sharpening her axe "good morn-" Hiccup was mid sentence when Astrid jolted and swung her axe round sending him into the wall. Astrid's axe was millimetres from hiccup's neck.

"oh it's you" Astrid remarked her axe lowering his neck, regretting that she didn't just plunge it deep into his throat. Astrid went back to sharpening her axe, waiting for the other member of the 'special training session' to arrive, but in that 5 to 10 minutes, Hiccup attempted to do a form of small talk to see if he could get a conversation started but the blonde always returned with "Cool, sure." or "whatever." It took Chaz a bit of time to get to Astrid's even though he only lived a few streets away, leaving the two board teens stood there in silence. It was soon disturbed by a sharp knocking at the door, "See Hiccup some people, knock!" the Viking girl scoffed before strolling over to the door Hiccup trailing not so far behind. Astrid reached for the door handle but the door was swiftly kicked open. Chaz was stood there at the door blood streaming down his arms and legs with visible bite marks from a wolf or dog of some sort on his arm, "Tip, don't go hunting in the woods early in the morning if there is a pack of wolves eyeing you up..." Chaz blurted out before fainting on the spot and collapsing to the floor. The two teens rushed to Chaz's aid and tried to carry him up to Gothi's hut for medical assistance, with the help of the nearby village folk they got him up the steps that could lead to Valhalla itself before he lost to much blood.

After 30 minutes of Gothi and Gobber mending to chaz's wounds, he walked back down the path with his arm bandaged and some bite marks stitched up, there was a heavy sigh from the small crowd and a little cheer from the other teens. Chaz took a slow pace down to Hiccup and Astrid who were surrounded by the other teens and a few village folk "Tip 2." he looked at hiccup "If you are in a tight situation and don't know what to do, go to the Viking who knows what to do." he said finishing looking at Astrid, the blonde blushed. Hiccup had a small flame of fury in his eyes just listening to what Chaz had just said. "So we all off to the arena, kill some dragons?!" Hiccup chirped up trying to get in-between Chaz and Astrid.

"I would love to!" Chaz remarked "But I think I already have enough scars for one day." he said as he walked off "I'll be at my home if you guys need me."

"C'ya later!" astrid yelled at the injured Viking.

"sure, yeah" also replied Hiccup with a disheartened mood. They all started to walk down to the dragon training arena passing Astrid's house, where you could still see the blood marks on the ground and the trail leading into the woods from where chaz had been attacked by the 'pack of wolves'. Sure like chaz came upon a pack of wolves this early in the morning and this time of year, they don't even come close to the village unless tempted to! Hiccup was too deep in thought that he didn't even notice he was about to walk into the door of the dragon training arena. "Hiccup! What ya' doing!" A loud voice shouted behind him, it was Gobber "Walking into doors, what else are you going to do today?! Anyway who wants to learn how to take down a hideous zippleback?!" The teens faces lit up, without another second passing they all grabbed their particular weapons and jumped into the arena.

Hours passed before they got out of the stonewalled structure, all of them beaming with happiness. It was around mid day when the teens said there "catch ya laters!" or whatnot before heading off. Hiccup tried to accompany Astrid home but she, for once let him tag along "Sooo... um Chaz managing to get himself attacked by wolves how do you think that happened??" Hiccup started while laughing!

"I don't know, but it seemed pretty cool to actually see some blood and gore around here! The dragons have been doing attacks less recently now. It kinda bugs me!" Astrid remarked deep in thought and Hiccup just remembering what type of girl he was in to. Astrid stood there quite content with the sudden chain of events, She turned her head towards Hiccup staring into his light green eyes as if she was examining his soul and Hiccup losing himself in her deep blue eyes. It didn't take long for one of them to break the stare and look of into a different direction, Hiccup thought it was a good enough time to ask if she was busy any time soon and would like to go out? The trembling boy opened his mouth but to his surprise the two Vikings came out with the exact same thing "so are you going to be busy anytime soon?" Both of them gave a small chuckle at each other's comments. "Sure I would like that." Astrid smiled

"In two moons time?" Hiccup said with an almost plea to his voice.

"Sounds good, c'ya later!" The blond responded before turning heel and walking into her home.

Oh yes that just happened! The Viking boy screamed in his mind. This guy just made a move even though it took him a couple months to do! Hiccup after taking in his little victory, began to walk back to his house when he realised, this was one of the few days that his father didn't want him to do an obscure task or that Gobber needed him down at the forge. He had the rest of they day off, "Hmmm, cool" he remarked to himself. Hiccup didn't get far when his curiosity got the better of him, he was looking down at the blood trail leadering into the forest. Go on why not he thought to himself before taking his scrawny figure back to his house to pack a few things, like food and water, into his satchel and running off into the forest.

Hiccup took a slow walk round the forest, he was starting to approach raven point when he stopped to pull out a drink. Yeah sure if Chaz was attacked by wolves all the way out here, he would have died before he even got close to the village. Hiccup lowered the empty jug from his mouth the last drops lying on his lips, He stared down at the blood trail leading from the village, it was beginning to look a bit faint as he followed the path leading up Hiccup notice a figure standing at the end of the trail crouched over the blood, examining it. Hiccup stepped closer trying to get a better look at the hooded person but accidentally stepped on a pile of sticks which made a noise that alerted the masked man to his presence.

"WHA- WHO, oh its you!" shouted the masked man sharply turning his head towards Hiccup and standing up in an defence form.

"Who are you?" Questioned Hiccup "and how do you know me?" With a confused look on his face.

The hooded, masked man spoke with a deep voice and he couldn't have been any more than 7" taller than hiccup it was hard to tell for the confused boy. He was shrouded in a dark cloak covering his entire body and he wore a mask covering his face and hair, the man was completely unidentifiable.

"Ohhhh... hehe." the man began to laugh "those are very dangerous questions my friend... but I'm sure everything will be reviled soon!" The man aggressively said but it had a light mood to the threat. The man began to step back, "Oh and one more thing stay away from 'it' or you and your friend might end up on your way to Valhalla itself!" The man shouted before running off. Hiccup followed in quick pursuit, they both ran through a few trees and bushes before the masked man took a sharp right and kept on running. Hiccup could not stop himself in time and he went hurdling down a sharp banking and hit his head on a rock.

The drowsy boy woke up a few hours later a massive sore on the side of his head, he got up and examined what he just fell down. It took him a while but it dawned on him, CRAP... OH GODS, OH GODS, OH GODS... this may be the same banking I fell down when I came toe to toe with that dragon! He looked around and confirmed to himself, yep same banking. Hiccup looked up the almost vertical mud wall, "The faster I can get out of here and tell my dad what's going on, the better it is for me!" The boy said before mounting the banking and crawling up, inch by inch the 90 pound boy pulled himself up the banking gripping on for life. Unfortunately it had been raining the pass two days, thus the mud was very hard to grip onto. Hiccup pulled his left leg on and planted onto the mud and pushed himself up to the top! As he was bringing the rest of his body up with his weak arms the mud under his left foot gave in and he started to slowly slide down the backing, his arm trying to grip anything they could grass, a branch... ANYTHING. It was no use Hiccup was still sliding, "really Odin your doing this to me?? Go screw yourself!" The boy shouted to the sky before being sent tumbling back down the banking... yet again!

But without the help of the night fury to stop him like last time, he won't rolling onwards down a sharp cliff. Hiccup had a lot to think about before he hit the ground like who was that man and what did he mean by 'it'! But like any boy he was thinking more of his date with Astrid in two days time and what he was going to do with her. It didn't take long for the small-ish boy to hit the ground with an almighty thud!

"Owww..." Hiccup attempted to say with his face dug into the mud which came out as more of a blurr of sounds. The boy waited to get the feeling of being alive into the rest of his body before he started to move again but when he did his brain first notice a pair of pitch black boots stood right in front of him. "Really it's you??" Hiccup disgustingly remarked, he began to move his head upwards when it just dawned on him that it wasn't the masked man in front of him... he may have just found the night fury again "ahh it's not you... it's YOU!" Hiccup said in a frightened tone looking deeply into the night furys eyes and it looking back at him.

Hiccup pulled one of his cheesy smiles hoping that this beast wouldn't kill him.

So you guys have it, the end of chapter three! I felt like I may have rushed this ending just a tiny bit please say so if you feel so too!

But as I said I tried my best on character connection and personality next chapter I'll be trying to advance the plot a bit more and maybe explain a bit more on our masked man and chaz, and if you want I'll do a bit of romance with Hiccstrid (winking face) tell me if you want Astrid to fall for hiccup or play hard to get (another winking face)!

But until the next time goodbye!!!
