Andra's POV

I had just come from taking care of Mouthful, my female nightfury that I raised from an egg, the only nightfury left, and Laughter comes and asks me to get some food. I live in the world of dragons. I was raised by a Laughter, a female screaming death, since I was a month old.

I dived into the water and went deep, I can breath underwater for some reason, and saw a scauldron. I managed to collect enough seaweed to use as the plant for the meal and popped out of the water. I started to dig a tunnel under the ground to get a sheep. Where I ended up, there was a dragon race. A black sheep was shot into the air and I called Laughter. She came and I jumped on her back to try and take the sheep. The other competitors had a different dragon each. There was a nadder, a nightmare, a zippleback and a gronkle. And another nightfury. There weren't supposed to be any left. The nightfury had the sheep so we flew in and wrestled with the nightfury for the sheep. "Shall we beat this thing, Laughter?" I asked her.

"Let's go, Andra." The boy riding the nightfury just looked at me in surprise.

"What?! Never seen a screaming death before? Watch out." And I took the sheep from him. We flew away with the sheep.

We were half way to our dragon island when we noticed the other riders following. "Laughter, we need to change course. Followers." We veered left and saw a new island. We ducked into a cave there while the riders flew past. I saw a bit of movement in the pouch that Laughter carries around. A head popped out. It was Mouthful. "Mouthful! What are you doing here?"

"I wanted to help you hunt. I have worked out how to echo. Let me show you." She turned to the back of the cave and let out a blast. I could hear it go further and bounce back. "They cave goes back for a long time, and at the end is a water hole. There are also some unfamiliar branches. Shall we go?" I looked at Laughter and shrugged. She dropped the sheep.

"Sure."

We followed the path to the pool of water. There were some unfamiliar branches. There was writing next to it. 'Light the wood and you shall turn up in another world.' "Mouthful, please light the wood." She sent a plasma blast at it and it burst into flames. A swirling storm popped up and we could see another world. We went through and started walking around.

Hiccup POV

I thought I had seen enough until the girl on a screaming death. We were preparing for a dragon race when mom came up to me and Toothless. "Sweetie, I need to talk to you after the race. Okay?"

"Sure mom." I replied. We were hopefully going to win this. I put the saddle on Toothless and hopped on. The black sheep was fired up in the air and we raced towards it. Astrid had it and was being chased by Fishlegs. I intercepted Astrid and took the sheep. That is when the trouble happened. We heard a noise from the ground and saw a girl in a home made white dress. She whistled and a screaming death came out of the ground. She jumped on the dragon's back and raced at us. We started wrestling for the sheep. I stared at her. She was talking to the dragon in dragon language. She lifted her head up and I saw her eyes. Her eyes were shocking. She had sea green dragon eyes. She caught me staring

"What?! Never seen a screaming death before? Watch out." And she took the sheep from Toothless and flew off.

"Everyone. After her!" I yelled out.

We followed when she turned around. Fishlegs and Astrid saw her eyes. They stopped momentarily. The screaming death veered left and disappeared behind the cliff. We turned and saw nothing. We continued the search. "Let's split up and look around. Me and Astrid, Snotlout and Fishlegs, the twins and Eret. Got it? Go." And we split. Astrid followed.

"Hiccup did you see her eyes? I think I remember her from a legend." I paid attention to that.

"Which legend?"

"A legend about a missing child. Her mother was left on a doorstep of a man in the village nearly forty years ago. When the mother had a little girl sixteen years ago. A month after she was born, there was an attack on Berk. The mother was killed by an arrow and the baby was never seen again. Until five years later. A man reported seeing a five year old girl in a white dress, like the one the girl that we just saw was wearing, attacking one of his sheep. He tried to chase her away but when he got close to the girl, she turned around and she had dragon eyes. He still chased her but she ran faster the the speedstingers. She jumped off the cliff and onto a screaming death. She hadn't been seen since. Until today." She told me the legend. We saw Fishlegs and Meatlug. They must have found something.

"Let's go."

We got to them and looked down. We saw Snotlout and Hookfang pulling something black out of a cave. "What is it, Fishlegs?" He started to fidget.

"Um...well...we found another nightfury in a bag. It was the dragon eyed girl's bag. No trace of the screaming death or the girl. It was in the cave next to a pool of water." He told us. We flew down to the nightfury. It tried to plasma blast Toothless and Stormfly. We got down to it. I gave it my hand to sniff.

"Hey there little nightfury. Aren't you a special little darling." When I said that, it tried to bite my hand. It was just a little baby girl dragon. Toothless growled at her and she growled back. Toothless went alpha mode and she still growled, completely unaffected. "Okay. We are going to need to take her to Berk and put her in the training arena."

We got home and took out the nightfury. She cried out and shot a pure white blast at the ocean. I wondered if Toothless could do that. The ocean started to form an ice bridge. We couldn't worry about that at the moment. We soon heard a pitter patter of feet on ice. I turned around and saw speedstingers running on the ice and whispering deaths flying above the ice. "Oh goodness. The dragon just had to be friends with some of the most dangerous dragons alive. Drive them out like last time?" Astrid was saying. I thought about this problem.

"I break the bridge and you get the dragon root?" I asked.

"Better than nothing." She replied. We raced to the middle of what is left and Toothless blasted at the ice. The bridge broke and the leader of the dragons roared to the nightfury and left. They were having trouble with the whispering deaths. They were paying attention to the nightfury not the dragon root. We got as many shiny objects as possible and started shining light in their eyes. They roared and left.

We looked over at the dragon and saw that she has started to work on the latch. She saw us looking and blasted us with plasma. Ruffnut's hair had been singed off to her shoulders. Toothless tried his thing again and she growled and tried to shoot at him. We decided to leave the training to tomorrow.

I got back to our house and sat down. Mom came over and gave me a bowl of soup. "Son, you know how I had to tell you something. This is it. There is a place called Greece and they have their own gods. There is also a place called Rome with different gods. The gods exist. They have children with mortals and these children are called demigods. You are a second generation demigod because I am the only brown haired, green eyed, daughter of Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom. Your father was also a demigod, he was blessed by Jupiter, roman god of the sky. This means that you are Greek, roman, and Viking. There are six other demigods as well. Don't tell anyone except your friends because they are the demigods." I honestly wasn't surprised. So many strange things have happened so I can honestly say, I can't be surprised anymore. I thanked her and left to tell my friends.

I got to my friends and told them they story. Eret was first to speak. "That is sort of what I found out in a dream. I am apparently the child of Hephaestus, Greek god of blacksmiths and fire. Any of you?"

Astrid piped up. "My dad told me that my mom is Bellona, the roman goddess of war."

"I am the son of Athena, so I am your uncle, Hiccup." Fishlegs told us. Oh great. Sarcasm implied.

"We are twin children of Hermes, Greek god of thieves, travels, and many other things." The twins heat butted each other.

"Blessed by Mars, roman god of war and weapons." Snotlout proudly stated.

"I wonder if dragon girl is one of us."
