Out of the glorious beams of the sun's rays that illuminates the peaceful ambience of the temperate forest where willow trees bloom in season. Deep through the northern regions where masses of pine trees towers the shadowy terrain and the thick greenish grey foliage that covers the rocky boulders of the forest. Is a thousand year old place where one of the most dangerous and mysterious nocturnal creatures prowl and domain the region. Untouchable terrains that howls and growls rule the place. The squawks of the crows echoes against the brushes of the eerie silence that can kill a fly. The mesh of the shady foliage and the slight frosty temperate forest is a site to behold such majesty but a warning to those who will attempt to step a feet at it, will never see the light of the another day. Glowing eyes, haunting howls and agile sprints that terrorize every creature that graze in the the stealthy pace of the mysterious forest.
As much of the eerie environment of the North, a creature of the night with a curse of eternal hunger that shifts into an unrecognizable transformation runs through the steep terrain as it's raven companion keeps on squawking, leading the creature into it's tasty prey. The creature and the raven finally spot their initial target and set on their stealth mode for ambush. It stay low in the ground without a sound as the raven fly to the canopy to watch the hunt. It's jaws are starting to open, hungry for the taste of fresh kill, without disturbing an unaware doe who drinks in the riverbank. It's luminous forest-colored eyes glares at its target, eyeing for a perfect opportunity as it creep closer to the doe. Then, as the doe's ears erect to feel something unusual in her surroundings, the creature launch with power as it bites the doe's soft flesh in her neck. The doe try to nudge the creature from her back but it only made the vicious creature anchor and hook it's canines deep into the flesh. Causing the doe to slowly loose her breath as more blood spill from her fragile flesh until her breath fades with the cold shivering breeze. The creature take the moment to dive it's hungry jaws into the doe's corpse, feasting to satisfy it's gruesome thirst for foul-smelling flesh. The raven fly down to the vicinity and join the creature as they eat every single meat of the doe, licking the savory taste of the bone that triggers their satisfaction of a successful kill.
As the moon continue to rise at the peak of the terrain. The creature and the raven finish it's meal and set off to avoid trespassing into someone's territory. It's vigorous legs run through the shadows and the fallen conifers that are covered in algae and moss as it's fowl companion flaps it's jet-black wings to guide the creature and search for a place to settle down until dawn.
When the crack of dawn starts to paint arrays of soft pastel colors of apricot and fleshy hue, the duo find a resting spot at a nearby cliff the overview the entire terrain as morning dews drop from every single perch of foliage while emitting the cold misty morning breeze. The creature fold it's hind legs as it lay down to inhale the warmth and cold of the wheezing breeze while the raven hook it's talons at a dead tree stomp and both are peacefully watching the sunrise. The creature close it's green eyes to enjoy the freshness of the breeze and begin to scratch it's ear using one of it's hind legs to brush of the itchy part. Lastly, both watch the glimmering sunrise as the darkness fade from then sky. And the creature finally take the opportunity to calm his mind and his hunger while starting to reminisce every shard of memory that mold him to his current path.
And that heart-shivering creature is no other than, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock lll, the infamous rogue black werewolf of the Hooligan Pack.
Worthless...Burden...Pathetic...
Those are the words that molded the lone wolf, that made him he accept his solitary fate. He was never like his peers who were excellent pack members and skilled predators and he was born differently from them. Because of him, a rift was created in the Hooligan Pack. Stoick The Vast, the alpha wolf and his father, wanted Hiccup to maintain the stability, strength and his prosperous leadership in the pack badly but things turned upside down when Hiccup begun to show signs of weaknesses. It's a complete disgrace for the future Alpha wolf to be the burden of the whole pack. Stoick tried to push Hiccup through numerous survival trainings but he was always the last one to return and he couldn't even catch his own prey during those days. The Beta wolves reasoned Stoick to withdraw his son and replace a better wolf to be the rightful heir.
They saw Dagur, Hiccup's adopted brother, as a better match for being the next Alpha of the pack for he possessed all the qualities of being an Alpha and also have incredible abilities such as premonition, telekinesis and a stronger hyperosmia than their sympathetic heir.
Hiccup was always been bullied and mistreated since the day he was born and the whole pack showed nothing but remorse and rejection for Hiccup. Meanwhile, Valka was the only one who lifted Hiccup's spirit. She knew her son only needed time to grow and nurture himself. Although she knew Hiccup was born very differently from the other wolves, she also knew that one day her pup will be respected and transformed into a mighty Alpha when the time is right, even if the odds are against it. She've always been the one who let Hiccup cry in her shoulders after being beaten by his peers and the only one who treated him differently than the pack. To lift his spirit, she'd always told him about wolf imprinting.
...
One night Hiccup was badly bruised and went to the clearing to wash himself while looking at his pissed reflection. He grumpily splashed the water to let loose his anger and stress about being the "burden" of his pack. He was so distressed that he didn't noticed that mud already covered his face. He somehow felt the cold sticky grease of mud in his face so he slowed down and look again at his reflection. Within this, he reflected all the negative things that always happened to him. He was already tired of being yelled by his dad, being bullied by his peers, being compared to his adoptive brother and being humiliated by the pack. He felt helpless knowing there's nothing he could do to change the way the pack looked at him. Within this, he couldn't help but to ask himself, what he had done wrong to deserve such mistreatments.
That afternoon, Snoutlout and Astrid pushed him out of the way when they were at the cliff and he fell into the steep boulders underneath the cliffs. Because of his weak health, he wasn't able to heal instantly unlike the other pups so he suffered numerous bruises and a sprain at his right leg. Luckily, Heather found him limping at the riverbank and she helped him to get aid.
The only wolves who treated him differently were his mother, sister and Gobber for they've been with Hiccup since birth and witnessed his difficult life of trying to fit in social group.
In deep thoughts, he never knew that his mother crept along the clearing to watch him let loose and felt sympathy at her poor son so she gently approached him from behind.
"Hiccup...what's wrong?" Valka asked in a gentle tone as she laid a hande to his shoulders.
" Why am I so different?!" Hiccup asked in a frustrated tone as he grumpily got out of the clearing.
" Because you got your whole face covered in mud my love..." She chuckled as she lifted a paw to remove the mud in his face and licked her son's soft black fur to was him off. But Hiccup wrestled to got out of her grip.
" No!...I'm never gonna a good wolf...everybody hates me..." Hiccup said as he stomped away from her and sat in the edge of the clearing.
Knowing how his father and the wolves treated him that lead him to be distraught in himself, Valka tried to calm him down and sooth him after all the mistreatment they've done to him.
" Oh ...not all of us hates you, in fact your sister and I didn't know what to do when you'll disappear one day" She sighed as she sat closer to her son.
" I really feel like I don't belong here...maybe my place is out there...far beyond the terrain" Hiccup said as he looked through the mountains that shield the night sky.
" Son, please don't you ever go near there, I would do everything to make your place in the pack" Valka worriedly said as she knew how often Hiccup wanted to leave and exile himself but he's too vulnerable and young for a pup to be out there all alone.
"But...look at me, Mom!!" Hiccup accidentally yelled after being fed up of all the hurt he'd felt without knowing that his mother's heart ached whenever he wanted to left and disappear away from them.
" I know what I see Hiccup ...and a mother see things very differently " She said in a calm tone as she wrapped her tail around her injured pup that left him without nothing to say as tears started to form in his eyes.
" Now let's get you home and tend up your wounds" She said as she picked him up in her mouth then went to their warm den that was just above the clearing.
When they got there, both shifted in their human form and Valka immediately wrapped her son's bruises in a damp cloth that contained some plant-based liquids that provide healing for a werewolf to heal quickly. Hiccup yelped in pain as she wrapped another cloth to his sprained leg. Seeing all the wounds that her son suffered, she couldn't help to shed a small tear of how badly their pack rejected her son as one of them and how her husband wouldn't do something about it.
A while later, Heather returned home and brought a freshly-killed fawn to her younger brother that night while her mom continued her work. Heather knew her brother was unable to hunt on his own so she was the one who did the hunting for him. Just like her mom, she felt sympathetic to her helpless brother. She knew her brother wasn't ruthless and wild like the others and that's what made him special to her and her mother unlike their adoptive brother who always liked to be praised for his unruly strength.
" Hey Hiccup, I brought your favorite" Heather said as she laid the dead fawn near her brother.
" Thanks sis" Hiccup thanked as Heather left to hit the sacks in her own spot at the den, covering herself with her soft thick brown tail that wrapped her body until she slept, tired of the hunt she did that day.
" See, I told you that not everyone hate you" Valka said as she finished to wrapped her son's wounds.
" Only you, Heather and Gobber treated me differently but the others...I knew that everyone would be better off if I wasn't around" Hiccup sighed as he begun to sob at all his misfortunes.
"Oh Hiccup...don't cry...you're nothing like what the other pups told you.." Valka comforted her 9 year old son.
"No...they're right...I'm never gonna be an Alpha...I hardly fit in with them and I'm the weakest..." Hiccup sobbed as Valka hugged him tighter at their den that was only lit by a bonfire.
" You're not weak my little warrior, in fact I've never seen such a strong and determined wolf like you, son" Valka said as he lifted her son's chin to made him look at her smiling face.
" Me? Strong...? ...How..?" Hiccup questioned as he wiped a tear at his swollen face.
"No wolf have been so resilient as you my dear, you may think you're not physically strong but your determination to continue your training and doing your best to be a future Alpha is enough to make me proud of you..." Valka proudly said that made Hiccup shocked at her speech.
"But...Dad...said" He was cut off by his mother.
"Never mind what he said, you're a strong, intelligent and a brave young wolf...they just couldn't see it that way" She said as they both hugged in a warm embrace. Hiccup felt comforted and loved by his mother every time she wrapped him with her loving arms. Even though, everyone was rough to him, his mother was the most valuable wolf to him. She loved him so much that sometimes she would go to extreme when she felt angry to the pack members who mistreated her son.
" Now...how about a bedtime story..?" She asked with a smile in her face.
"Is it about dragons again?" He asked as he slowly smiled at her. Valka always had the best stories to cheer her son up.
"Hmm...well...it's something different this time" Valka chuckles as Hiccup whined at her.
" What is it about then?" Hiccup pouted as he followed his mother to their bed that was made of wood and covered in soft sheep wool.
" I'm not going to tell if you won't huddle close and scoot in" She said as Hiccup launched happily in her arms with eyes googling for her story.
" Alright...this story is about...how a wolf...will find it's soulmate one day.." Valka begun but Hiccup whined again.
"Uhhh..not the "imprinting" thing Mom" Hiccup pouted as Valka chuckled at her son's reaction. She knew he'd prefer stories about fiery dragons but this time she wanted things differently and to let him know how magical the act of imprinting is.
"Well I guess you don't how it actually happen, don't you?" She smirked and when he came to think of it, he got a bit curious of how imprinting really works.
" Well ...I knew a young she-wolf when she came to an age where she can finally decide to venture the misty woods on her own..." Valka begun to narrate a story while Hiccup laid at his makeshift bed and she covered her son with a comfy wool blanket.
" She began to see the world around her and it was beautiful...when she arrived in the peaceful meadows in the southeast region of her pack's territory...she saw a glowing angel-like luminescent figure from which it was called a Whisp" She narrated.
" What's a Whisp, Mom?" Hiccup asked with a curious face.
" A Whisp is an ethereal spirit of the terrain, it protects all the creatures that lives here and it guides them to their fate" She replied.
"Now back to the story my love, ...the she-wolf followed the Whisp into the woods. She is curious of where it will take her ... and not a minute longer, the Whisp suddenly disappear in the middle of the woods. Leaving the she-wolf without a clue to her dilemma. She didn't know what to do when all of a sudden she saw a flock of crows squawk through the canopy then a small hare ran across her direction in panic...she was about to follow the hare but then she heard a growl that launch her from behind..." She narrated as her son's eyes widened in horror.
" Did...did..the She-wolf died...?" Hiccup asked with a worried face, afraid to what happened to the wolf in his mother's story.
" No my love, the she-wolf didn't die..." She replied with a soft chuckle that made Hiccup sighed in relief.
" When she fell to the ground by force, she accidentally shift into her human form and when she got up, she saw another werewolf who accidentally shifted in his human form too. Both stood up from the ground and as they helped each other, their eyes glistened and twinkled and that's where the imprinting happened" She narrated.
" So it's like..love at first sight..?" Hiccup asked.
"Exactly, imprinting always happens involuntary and that's the best part of it..." She replied with a smile.
"The She-wolf and the male wolf couldn't help but to be embarrassed, confused and shocked at what just happened between them. They both felt like a splash of wave hit them both. And since that day, the two lone souls became one and...the She-wolf lived happily with her husband throughout the years...to tell the tale..." Valka narrated as she finished her story with a gentle smile.
" So..the She-wolf...and the...wait...a...minute...you're her right?...That She-wolf...was you...all...along!" Hiccup analyzed and it made Valka chuckled.
" That's right my love...and I still remember who magical imprinting is...I still remember how your father was a clumsy, awkward and funny back at that time...although so much have changed" She sighed.
" You mean Dad didn't have a bad temper before" Hiccup asked.
"..Yeah...he was so different back in the day...he rarely became angry...and I guess...it'll started when he...became alpha for their so much responsibilities...and..." She was cut off by her son's words.
"When...you both have me...right?" Hiccup asked as he finally knew what made his Dad such a brute. Valka could clearly see the sorrow of her son to his father's attitude and mistreatment. And it breaks her heart how her once joyous family was torn apart. Although she couldn't deny that Stoick became so screwed up with their son after all the pressures from the pack that a their future Alpha must be stronger than him but...but fate turned it differently for their son.
"Oh...Hiccup...if only the world wasn't like this...they would see that you have the purest soul of all" Valka said as she slight shed a tear of how badly Hiccup suffered everyday from the pack despite he did and tried everything to be good for them.
"..Well...I guess the only person I could really count on...are Gobber...my sis...and you, Mom" Hiccup said as he yawned in his mother's arms.
She felt warmth in her heart when he heard those words from her son and made her hugged him gently.
"And you'll always be in my heart, my little warrior" Valka said with a warm smile as he laid him down to his soft pillow as he slept.
The next day, as the sun slowly rose above the mountains, Hiccup tried to join in with his peers once again as they wander through the caves of the terrain. Snotlout, Tuffnut, Ruffnut and Astrid both raced through the fields until they reached the cave but left Hiccup who just happens to save a baby bird back into it's nest and it's mother.
"Hey Guys! Wait up!!" Hiccup yelled exhaustingly as he finally reached his peers.
" Well, well...welll, look who finally showed up! The sworn screwed-up puppy of the pack" Snotlout insulted his cousin as the other pups snickered at his back.
" I though he wouldn't put on some energy in his paws to run his butt of or else, he could've stayed at home listening to his mommy's stories" Astrid teased and it made Hiccup looked even more horrible as he tried to catch his breath.
Hiccup always had a huge crush at Astrid but as time goes by and he learned about her true nature, he felt betrayed by his own feelings for he regretted how he became lovesick at her when she's nothing but a horrible demon at the inside. He used to show some signs about it but ever since she joined the crew at his mistreatments. He felt his heart torn apart knowing that the girl he used to admire so much...betrayed him.
"Ha, ha,ha...very funny" Hiccup sarcastically said as he finally caught his breath.
"Now put on some muscle there, you twig...cause this time...our adventure is taking on a next level" Tuffnut said.
The four wolf pups climb into the steep rocky cliffs and they quickly reached the top but unfortunately for Hiccup, he stumbled and fell multiple times until he finally reached the top and received nothing but a toxic mockery from his peers.
" Geez...Hiccup..why did you always suck at everything?!" Ruffnut whined.
" Because I'm good at it" Hiccup sarcastically retorted as he finally catches his breath from all that rock climbing.
They continue their mockery as they raced through the clearing and until they reach the marshy flats where there was a cave in the vicinity; which in fact it belonged to a grizzly bear's territory. Snotlout suddenly shifted into his human form and begun to picked up small pebbles from the marshes.
Say...if you're going to be our future Alpha...you must show your so-called inner strength...Hiccup" Snotlout challenged as he juggled the pebbles in his right hand.
Hiccup suddenly realized what his brainiac cousin was up to and that was to awake the sleeping grizzly bear at the cave.
" Snotlout! For Fenrir's sake!! Don't you dare awake that bear!!" Hiccup ordered that caused the group to be shocked for they never saw him angry like that but they decided to mocked him even more.
"Oh..ho...ho...look...who suddenly become bossy..." Astrid snickered as the group continued to do their mishap. Hiccup couldn't stand when Astrid made fun of him, he felt stung whenever as he wasn't totally healed about how did she betrayed his feelings.
Within a second, Snotlout stupidly threw the pebbles to the sleeping bear and so does the three others imitated his stupidity while Hiccup was shocked of how his cousin was a total idiot. Suddenly, the bear got up and growled to the pups. It's angry glare and snarl gave them a clear message of what gonna happen.
"Uhh...he..he..he...uh..Hiccup its now or never...to protect us..." Snotlout dumbly chuckled as the bear growled and charged them.
"RETREAT!!!! RUN!!! RUN!!! TAKE COVER!!!" Snotlout and Tuffnut screamed as the four of them quickly ran back to the woods and to the direction of their pack while Hiccup tried to keep up his pace as the bear almost mauled him.
"Arrrggghhh!! WE DIDN'T DO IT!!!! HICCUP IS THE ONE!!!!!! Snotlout shrieked as the wolves became alert at the commotion.
Instinctively, the wolves started to form a defense position as they saw Hiccup ran helplessly while the bear almost got him this time if weren't for Stoick who charged the bear by biting its neck. The other pack members joined the fight with their alpha as they bit the bear by it's sides. The bear tried to catch one of the wolves but they were too quick and agile for a lonesome bear. Stoick and Spitelout tired the bear as they tore a part of it's skin but unfortunately Spitelout got bitten by the bear and it threw him that caused him to hit a tree and it fell on him. The bear got tired and retreat back to its cave, leaving the woods and out of the sight of the wolves.
"Get everyone up and tend to their injuries" Stoick ordered one of his comrades but he noticed the disappearance of Spitelout.
"Has anyone seen...Spitelout?!" Stoick asked in a panic tone and suddenly Dagur came and told him that Spitelout was crushed by a tree. Stoick hurriedly ran at the direction where Spitelout is and found him in a bad situation. He and the other wolves removed the tree that toppled him and tried to revive him, hoping that he'll get up.
Stoick tried to nudge his comrade's head but unfortunately, Spitelout didn't show any signs of life that caused the wolves to be shocked and sad. Stoick couldn't help but to grieve his best comrade and his best friend. He was a great protector of the pack and he was like a brother to him. In immense sorrow, Stoick, Dagur and the other wolves howled in agony. This was a traditional practice they did to lament one of their pack members who died in battle. The other wolves heard their howls and was shocked to know what happened and Snotlout felt torn for his father's death.
When the whole pack arrived at the scene, Dagur turned to see them.
"Who lead the bear in our territory?" He asked firmly as he glared the five mischievous pups.
"It...was...it was...uhhh" Tuffnut stuttered for he didn't know what to say.
"It was Hiccup! As usual!" Snotlout lied as the whole group at the poor wolf pup.
"Me?!...You're the one who awoke the bear?!" Hiccup denied for he didn't do anything at their mishap. In fact, he warned not to threw stones and pebbles to the bear.
"Is this true?!" Stoick finally stood up and eyed all of them but his heavy glare fell upon his son.
"No Dad! Snotlout was the one..." He was cut off by Astrid.
"Yes Alpha, Hiccup did it...again" Astrid lied as he comforted Snotlout and it made Hiccup puzzled at their false accusations against him.
"Dad please believe me...I didn't do anything wrong" Hiccup pleaded for his innocence.
" Stoick... you knew your son was always the one who caused discord in the pack...and it would be wrong for you to falsely accuse Snotlout for he was the only piece of Spitelout here" Said by one of his comrades.
"But Dad..we have no evidence of what Hiccup did to made all of this happened...you can't just do the worst for him" Heather suddenly pleaded as she heard all the commotion that was occurring.
Heather knew his poor brother would never lie against the death of one of their pack members. In fact, she knew Hiccup wouldn't dare to approach a bear for he was to scared and she assumed that someone else caused it.
" Stoick...what would you do..." Another pack member asked as Stoick didn't really know what to do.
He was tired of hearing another report of his son's mischief and what's worse that it lead to the death of Spitelout. Although it pained him to exile his very own scrawny son he guess he'll held a meeting later.
" Gather everyone and our wisest councils, we'll discuss this case at the den" Stoick ordered coldly as the others did what he said.
Hiccup couldn't believe what he just witnessed, when his Dad was about to leave he gave him a glare full of regret, he knew what could happen to him. He already thought of the worst before and now is probably the time...that he'll face the worst a wolf can face. He ran with a heavy heart back to his mother, sister and Gobber. They've heard of what happened and strongly believed his innocence. Valka couldn't help but to be furious at her husband. She reasoned that how could he harshly accuse their son without evidence that was provided but only mere lies. To add more flames in the fire, Astrid said that she and Tuffnut were witnesses to what happened and told a tale that Hiccup was the one who stupidly threw stones to awoke the bear that killed Spitelout.
For days, a meeting was held to discuss of what would they can do to this case. Valka and Heather furiously tried to defend Hiccup while Dagur and the other pack counter them of Hiccup's previous mishap. While at the den, Gobber kept Hiccup company and told him that he did nothing wrong to be falsely accused by those lies. Even though he knew he was innocent about the lies that were thrown at him, Hiccup couldn't stand everyday to witness how his mother and sister lost the discussion for his defense. He didn't want them both to suffer "his" consequences and seeing them helplessly like this, he knew he must do something about it for them even if the worst came for him.
"He's Never Gonna Be One Of Us!"
"You Can't Keep Him Valka!"
"He's only a child, He'll Learn!"
"It's either we'll let him live or he'll let us to be devoured again and again!"
" He asked for trouble the moment he was born!!"
"He'll grow up, you'll see!"
"He's helpless TO DEFY HIS FATE!"
"He's such a disgrace!"
"I bet Spitelout is cursing him in Valhalla!"
"How many lives does a worthless wolf worth?!"
As the rain started to pour and the wolves still continued to quarrel, Hiccup left the den and approached the wolves to end all of this commotion.
"Everyone..Please..Listen.." Hiccup pleaded But they couldn't hear him through their argument.
"Everyone!! For once just LISTEN TO ME!!" Hiccup yelled as the wolves became silent and stared at him.
"Look...I don't want to see anyone getting hurt ...again...okay...so I've made my decision to therefore...strip myself as the future Alpha and hereby exile...myself out...of the...Hooligan Pack.." Hiccup painfully declared as everyone was shocked at what he just said.
" I hate to admit it, but for once, he made a right decision" Dagur agreed as the other wolves nodded at his decision. But Valka and Heather were heartbroken at the scene.
"Hiccup! What are you doing here! Go back to the den !" Valka ordered but Hiccup refused.
" I think it's a brilliant idea, Stoick" Snotlout's mother agreed too as well as his peers.
"No...I won't let you go! He's My Pup!!" Valka held Hiccup's hands tightly and shot back an angry glare to her husband and the other wolves.
"Val, we knew this day would come" Stoick protested as he approach his wife and son.
" We are the only family he'd ever knew" Heather cried out as she came closer to her brother.
"Val, Heather...this may be his only opportunity to grow and mature on his own" Stoick said.
Both she-wolves were left speechless and they felt their hearts shattered into shards for they have no idea what to do but to painfully face the fact that Hiccup must leave the pack. Valka's eyes started to form tears as the rain droplets damp her face while she held her head high in dismay and sadness. As a mother, it stabbed her to know that her son must be on his own at such a weak state. She couldn't bear the hurt she'll face when he's gone. She loved him too much that sending him away was already killing her.
All of a sudden, Hiccup clearly saw her mother's sadness so he cupped his mother's face and made her look at him.
"Hey, it's gonna be okay...I'll be alright...I'll come visit someday" Hiccup said to his mother as she open her tearful eyes at her son.
"You would never forget this...your are mine, Mine to me...no matter how far the distances you'll go...you'll always be my son" Valka tearfully said as they both shared their last hug together in the rain.
"And you'll always be in our hearts, Hiccup" Heather tearfully said as she also joined the hug to bid farewell to her brother.
"And you'll be always my mother and sister" Hiccup said as he broke their farewell hug and kissed her mother's forehead, leaving her and sister awfully defeated to his self-exile. He walked away from them to face Gobber who had a sorrowful face.
" Are ye sure about this...lad...?" Gobber sadly asked while he tried to held back his tears. He'd been a father figure to Hiccup since he was bullied and tormented by the pack.
"I've never been so sure about my decision until now...Gobber...farewell, Pops" Hiccup replied with a painful smile as Gobber hugged him tightly, never wanted to let him go.
"Farewell...my son" Gobber said in a monotonous sorrowful tone as they broke the hug.
Within this, Hiccup took one last look at the Hooligan Pack then shifted into his wolf form to ran into the uncharted woods of the cold North. Her mother had never been sorrowful to watch him left. A minute after she fell into her knees while the other wolves went back to the den with a reliefs for Hiccup withdraw himself to the pack. The three wolves watched Hiccup as he ran further and further from them, aching their hearts and tried to comfort themselves about his disappearance. But no one words describe a mother's tears.
Years had passed, Hiccup could only wander what his mother's condition right now. It hurt him to left her in that state but he had to do what's best for the pack and for the safety of his loved ones...even if it means that he'll never see them again. Throughout his life as an outcast wolf, he learned how to survive on his own and grew strongly as he adapted the ways of nature. No one would of thought that this would happen for a wolf's weakness was to be left alone but the odds turned differently at Hiccups, he was now a fully grown and matured lone wolf of the southeast region of the woods. He decided to keep a safe distance between him and his pack's territory. And now, as the sun continued to rose through the whole terrain, he breathed out as he finished reminiscing his memories while waiting for his raven friend to wake up. Even though he felt formed apart from what happened in his pack, he finally tasted freedom knowing that he'll never wake up to be yelled by his awful dad, to be mocked by his peers and to be humiliated by his pack. He could finally be himself.
...But that wasn't the end of the tale of the rogue wolf...in fact, there's a lot of events that the future holds for him...and little does he knew that this wasn't the end of the line...someone out of the wild cold terrain...had also the same fate as him...
