Part 2

Stark's Pond was biting cold on this afternoon and the sky was beautiful, clear as you can only get in the mountains blue. There wasn't a cloud in the sky, so it was a perfect winter day, or as close as it can get in South Park. On the snow-cleared path, two gangly outcast teenage boys named Hiccup and Fishlegs strolled to their hideout, to escape from school. As they were going to their clubhouse, two dragons came up to meet their companions because they were done for the day. The reason why they weren't allowed in school was that Toothless and Stormfly were lead actors in Asses on Fire, and parents believed that they were a bad influence on their children.

When they reached the fort, Hiccup and Fishlegs tenderly made a nest for the egg, so it wouldn't break and give them an "F". After that, they put the egg carefully in the nest so they could protect it from the other dragons. Toothless saw the egg, and burned with envy because of the extra attention that Hiccup lavished on it. He grumbled at the thought that he had to share Hiccup with another dragon.

Toothless whined to Hiccup, "Why do you have to have this dragon? Aren't we enough for you?" Toothless was referring to the fact that Hiccup had three dragons already: Windwalker, Wodensfang and himself.

Hiccup rolled his eyes at the remark and calmly explained, "This is a group project that Gobber assigned for no apparent reason and he is grading extremely harsh. And on the bright side, Fishlegs and I will be taking care of it for only a week."

Fishlegs, since he didn't understand Dragonese, turned to Hiccup and asked his best friend, "What is Toothless complaining about now?". Toothless was known for complaining when things weren't going his way and he could be extremely selfish, especially when he roped in Wodensfang to be his sidekick after Stormfly left him hanging.

The redhead replied, "Toothless is jealous of the fact that I have another dragon taking away his time with me." The young dragon blushed, and vehemently denied it expressively to Fishlegs and Hiccup. Toothless was clearly in denial about that fact.

The curly, black-haired boy responded, "Sounds like some is a little jealous of his new sibling." Fishlegs, after he was done speaking, gave Toothless a pointed look that was saying you know I'm right, even though Fishlegs had no siblings, only a dragon that took it upon herself to raise Fishlegs. His father and his paternal grandmother were still alive, but they only came around when they needed a kid for political reasons.

Hiccup, trying to get the project started, said "Why don't we make something to make it easier to carry the egg." His project partner nodded back at him, and they both went looking for material to make the basket. Fishlegs went to the right side of the fort and he found colored felt and sticks to support the egg. On the other side of the fort, Hiccup found a bucket that was the perfect size for the egg.

As they were making it, Camicazi and Stormfly came barging into the hideout, as Cami blurted out, "What are you doing here?". Fishlegs took the egg, and moved it out of the way of his good friend, because he didn't want her to accidently break it.

Hiccup responded, like it was completely obvious what the two of them were doing, "Making sure that the egg doesn't break on accident."

Fishlegs chimed in, and asked, "Anyway, where is your egg?" Cami didn't have her egg, since she wanted to go out and explore the area. Stormfly was busy flying around the hideout and hanging out with Toothless.

Cami stubbornly replied, as she needed to defend her project choices to Fishlegs, "With Clueless, of course." She tried to show that she hadn't dumped the egg on Clueless, and that they both agreed to a schedule like responsible group partners. Hiccup ignored the conversation for a little bit, and took the basket with the egg silently from Fishlegs, which Fishlegs unquestionably gave up.

Fishlegs gave Camicazi a look and stated, "And you are sure that Clueless wouldn't break like the other projects that he had." As Fishlegs was talking, Hiccup covered up the egg and put it into a safe place away from the action.

Cami rolled her eyes at Fishlegs' suggestion without showing that she was starting to get nervous about the egg. She then said, "He isn't going to break his own project, right?" as she raised her shoulders in a way to say - what could possibly go wrong?

Fishlegs sarcastically replied, "It's not like he breaks something or burns himself or does something that he wasn't supposed to once a month and we all say that he would accidently burn down the school one of these days." They were allowed to have a chemistry lab session every Friday because Gobber liked to see what would happen if something blew up.

The crazy-haired girl retorted, "It was once in six weeks, not once a month. And the one time that there was a dangerous fire that pushed us out of class for a week, Clueless was absent. But I have to go and work on my homework." Cami looked worried for a second, and she went back out and ran to check on Clueless.

"So, how are Alvin and Excellinor treating you?" asked Hiccup. Hiccup looked at his best friend, trying to make sure that Fishlegs was being treated well. Fishlegs had been abandoned (against his mother's will) as a baby, so Fishlegs always had the short end of the stick in life compared to his classmates. And Alvin and Excellinor weren't anywhere close to the epitome of being a good parent or grandparent. They didn't care about the fact Fishlegs was born until they could use it for their own gain - which they did when they realized that they could use it to get the dragons banished from South Park, given that they thought he died when he was abandoned.

Fishlegs thought about it for awhile, and then said, "Better than before. I'm still content not to live with them, because they only want to have guardianship for the power that it." Fishlegs then looked stressed out like he usually does when his family is mentioned.

Hiccup gave Fishlegs a look that said Are you understating this situation just so I'm not upset by it? I'm your best friend, so of course I'm going to worry about you. But, he felt that constantly saying this isn't going to help, and so he just asked, "Don't worry about it tonight, I'll take the egg, so when you have to meet with Alvin and Excellinor, it will be calmer."

Fishlegs looked at Hiccup, with a look that conveyed a silent thank you, and for helping him deal with his biological elders. Alvin and Excellinor were already mad at him for rebelling against them in the dragon wars, even though Fishlegs had no idea about their connection in the beginning, because Hiccup was a leader in the kids rebellion, so naturally Fishlegs was backing him up. Another thing that they fought about was the fact that Fishlegs has a sutter because he was raised by a dragon, and he didn't get much exposure to English until he went to Kindergarten. Now he has it under control most of time, unless he is emotionally distressed, which happens the most around Excellinor and Alvin. Hiccup then put his arm around Fishlegs, and they enjoy a small, quiet moment that was just for best friends.
