I arrived on berk in the afternoon, and shortly after I landed, a big storm rolled in, forcing Toothless and I to take cover. I was freshly covered in blood, and needed to rinse it off, so I stood out in the pouring rain, and just listened to the sounds of the storm. Just as I was about to take my mask off however, I heard a shriek. I turned around to see a young Hiccup staring at me. Luckily for me, I was wearing my mask,and he never saw my face.

The boy in front of me, couldn't have been older than fifteen.

Toothless, unknowing of the visitor we had, waltzed out into the rain with me, frightening the young boy even more. Hiccup quickly screamed at me to warn me of the "impending danger" behind me, not knowing that Toothless was my friend. I assured little Hiccup that Toothless was not going too hard either of us, but he did not believe me.

He quickly turned around and started running towards Berk to inform his father. Toothless and I swiftly flew up to him, grabbing him by his hand and flying him into the air.

We quickly dropped Hiccup on the ledge of a cliff surrounded by water. He had nowhere else to run, because we stood in front of him. He yelled at me to move, and that what I was doing was wrong.

I looked at him as I slid off Toothless, hoping to diminish his fear. He stepped back. "Please dont hurt me" He said in fear. I pulled my gloves off, as a way to show him that I am no threat to him. He looked at my hands, and calmed a little. I told him my name and he visibly eased. He then shared his own name through shaky words.

"Please take my hand, I promise he won't hurt you" I say again, not once breaking eye contact with the boy. Hiccup takes my hand and I place it on Toothless's head, sending a shiver down Hiccup's body.

"This is wrong" Hiccup says, running away towards Berk.

I climb onto the saddle once more and grab Hiccup onto the saddle with me, as we turn around and jump off of the cliff.

Still raining the thunder and lightning crack around us. I tell Toothless to make the ride smooth but he has other ideas. Just as quickly as all of this started, Toothless was prepared to end it. He was flying around at top speed, flinging Hiccup in every direction. I made little comments about what Toothless was doing, as a way to show Hiccup that I was not telling Toothless to do this.

"Toothless slow down"

"TREE TREE'

"Oh look, now we're spinning"

"no , don't turn upside down"

"Please stop this"

Next thing I know, Hiccup is holding onto my waist for dear life shouting "Please please, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have tried to tell anyone!I won't share this with anyone, just please let me down!" The closeness makes me blush under my mask.

Toothless quickly pulls up and next thing I know, we're floating above the clouds, untouched by the storm below. Hiccup loses his grip on my waist once he realizes we are no longer in danger, moving his hands to my shoulders. I see him reach out to touch the clouds as he marvels in the new experience.

"I understand now' Is all he is able to say

Toothless, suddenly bothered by an unknown force, veers off of the original path he had us on. Soon enough, we are surrounded by other dragons, all holding some type of food.

We find our way into a large mountain with what seems to me lava covered in dense fog. A grockle flys over the opening and drops a fish into the abyss. "Good to know our food is stolen just to be dropped into an empty pit." Hiccup says annoyed.

Just as quickly, a ginormous dragon flies into the sky and eats the gronckle alive in one bite, and then suddenly notices our little group. "Get us out of here Toothless!" I shout as Toothless flies us out of the mountain just before the mother dragon takes a bite at where we once were situated.
