PART I
Welcome to Berk. A small island a few days north of hopeless and 12 degrees south of Freezing-to-death. While most places have cats, dogs or other animals, Berk has something different. Dragons. You see five years ago Hiccup, the least battle worthy child in the village befriended probably the most elusive of all dragons. A Nightfury. Over the years Dragons and Vikings have lived together in... relative harmony, despite the best efforts of those like Mildew and Alvin. Last year the island's chief, Stoic, was killed in battle, his son Hiccup took his place as his mother was unwanting to lead.
Hiccup was a skinny man, only 21 years old. His hair was charcoal black and messy. His right leg, replaced with a metal replacement after a dicey encounter with an alpha dragon the year he met toothless. His clothing consisted of nothing more than a brown coat and pants with a stained grey shirt. His armor on the other hand, was designed to look like a Nightfury, even including glider fins to help him if he got knocked loose during a flight.
Then there was Astrid, Hiccup's girlfriend. She was well toned and fit. She always wore a leather cardigan and a armor plated skirt made of sheep's skin and grunkle-iron. Her hair was tied in a pony tail and was a peach blonde color. Aside her waste was her battle ax, she barely left anywhere without it. Where as Hiccup preferred diplomatics and tactics, Astrid just wanted to strike hard and fast.
As usual on Berk the one legged, one handed blacksmith with a stone tooth, Bogard, was making weapons and armor for the dragon riders and villagers. There was a crash behind him and he groaned. He turned to find a rather fat blonde boy and a spilled pile of swords. "Fishlegs! For the love of Thor, I just cleaned in here!"
"sorry, I just stumbled, I was coming to see how that armor for meatlug is coming, you know how swords scare her." fishlegs explained nervously as h backed up, spilling a bucket of water into the forge's fire.
"Fish legs! "Bogard groaned in exasperation.
" I'm just gonna go exploring then." the young Viking said timidly.
"Sure, what could possibly go wrong? " in truth Bogard was an optimist, even though stuff generally goes wrong, he never seams to get overly worried, unless it involves Alvin. Little did he know a odd vortex opened up on the other side of the island,throwing out a blue and pink mechanical giant and a boy who looked just like Hiccup.
