"Whaaah-ow, what... why?" Hiccup complained as he landed heavily on the floor. It was the middle of the night and Hiccup had been fast asleep when Toothless had given him the worst early wake up call ever. He'd been catapulted out of bed as the black dragon tried to fit his considerable bulk underneath it.

Normally, he would have rubbed his head and whatever else hurt, but his whole body was smarting so there wasn't much point. He realised the snowstorm that had started early last night was still going, if anything, harder than it was before. The floor shook beneath him as the entire hut was battered by the wind.

Somehow, Toothless had succeeded in fitting under Hiccup's bed and was now hiding there, quivering in fear, his green gage eyes wide- the pupils reduced to slits- as a little high pitched rumble emerged from his throat - the kind that meant he was desperately afraid - as another blast of wind shook the cabin. Hiccup was confused, storms like this weren't uncommon in Berk, especially in winter, and Toothless had always had no problem with them before. He'd even gone flying in one to recover some livestock that had escaped into the snow earlier that year. So why was he so troubled now?
"Toothless? It's okay bud, it's just a storm." he reassured him, reaching out a hand to stroke him just behind the ears- he always loved that. But this time the loving gesture failed to calm the terrified creature, as he carried on whimpering to himself, glancing fearfully at the window.
"What is it?" he asked, knowing no ordinary storm would scare his Night Fury.

Suddenly Toothless straightened up, the bed flung off his back with a crash. His ears were pointing straight up from the top of his head.
"What has he heard?" Hiccup thought to himself, as his friend went over to the window. The dragon stared out into the storm, his eyes flicked back and forth- he was looking for something. Hiccup followed and mimicked his buddy- green eyes scanning the world outside- but he couldn't see anything beyond the numberless, white blurs of the snow in the wind.

He strained his ears in an attempt to find out what it was that had Toothless so spooked. The faint tones of a roar reached his ears
"A dragon?" he muttered, "Is that what's scaring you?" Toothless gave no indication he heard him but continued to watch the storm intently. Another, different, call was just about audible over the howling wind, answering the challenge of the first.
"Two dragons..." Hiccup realised, "...and they sound mad..."

It didn't look like Toothless would be moving away from the window anytime soon, and with his bed now propped up against the wall, Hiccup eventually settled by Toothless, resting against the warm side of his dragon friend. The gentle rise and fall of the dragon's breathing eventually lulling him off to sleep.
