'My Thor. Where do i start? Well for starters im like any other Viking in my village of Berk except im the daughter of the Chief. Stoick Haddock known for protecting our home from Dragons and other threats. Ever since the dragons took away our mother when we. were very young. Dad has always kept a watchful eye on us making sure we are safe. I cant handle myself very well. Ive been know for my hand in hand combat and weaponry. Plus i got a dragon as a best friend. You heard me. A dragon. A Fury named Ragnar. I haven't told anyone about him for dragons being dangerous and you know. Lucky for us Berk has secret caves that go underground and been sneaking every once in a while to see him. I know people will think im crazy to have Ragnar but i feel the dragon arent as much different as us. Well i better get on saving my home or whats left of it from a dragon attack.'

"Snotloud! Grab another bucket for this hut now!" A girl guiding the children to safety while holding a newborn. "On it Babe." Said a dark-haired boy passing her. "Give it a rest before she punches your teeth in." Said blonde girl holding one handle tp the wheelbarrow with her twin brother. "Id love to see that." Said the boy. "Ruffnut! Tuffnut! Save it. We have more huts to go. We got this Urd. Go!" Said another blonde throwing water at the flames close by. Urd held a good grip on the baby and held a little girl's hand as they ran to safety. "Thora?! Thora?!" Said woman in the opening of the grand hall. "Mama!" Said the girl reaches her tiny hand out. "Get down!" Said a man seeing a nightmare dragon coming this way. Urd covered Thora and the baby using her body and shield she had strapped to her back. She looked up seeing was suddenly gone but the other dragons were everywhere. Thora got of Urds grip and ran straight into her mother arms. Urd went in handing the baby to an old woman with a staff. "Hes been coughing a lot in the hut. Gothi will check on him." Said Urd to the mother. "Thank you Urd." Said The woman before following Gothi. Urd then headed back outside taking her shield out to block the fire blasts. She spotted a boy running out of the house going after him. "You know dad doesn't want you out here in a time like this, Hiccup." Said Urd running next to him. "I want to prove to him that im a Viking like you guys." Said Hiccup getting in the house for blacksmiths. "You can do much better than killing a dragon especially a Night Fury." Said Urd as Grockle gave her an axe. "You know how much this means to me." Said Hiccup. "So, your reputation is more important than your life?" Said Urd then felt something wrap around her waist and got thrown into the air. She looked down seeing the whole village and let out scream that no one can hear due to the chaos. Urd spread out her arms to slow down the fall until a pair of claws grabbed her. "Urd!" Said man's voice. Urd looked to see the panicked look on the man's face and turned back to grab a weapon but saw they disappeared into the thick smoke from the flames. She looked up to see a teal dragon with spikes getting a good grip on her until a very loud pitch got their attention. "Nightfuries!" Said a random man in the towers. The blue blast almost hit the spiked dragon then another causing them to let go of Urd. Then a fast figure snatched her by the ankles flying off to the forest far away from the village.

"Thanks Ragnar. Can you put me down?" Said Urd looking at the Nightfury. She stared at his adorable face even with damages the dragon hunters left on him. The right side of his face was burned towards his ears with his scales were missing and had a very light dark smooth patch that can barely be seen if one got close enough. But the most noticeable is his entire eye was blood red while the other was midnight blue. The rest of his body was fine except for the scar line around his whole neck and two or three scars on his legs and under belly. 'I like you in this position.' He growled softly. "I know like this too but i dont like coming home covered with my own vomit." Said Urd as Ragnar snorted and landed her into the trees. "Better. Look these fights are too old and harsher than ever." Said Urd as Ragnar hanged upside down looking at her. 'No really. Maybe im going blind on my demon eye.' Ragnar grumbled. "Your eyes are fine, and we both know it. I just saying that y-" Urd paused to hear the sound of another nightfury attacking and looked to see it lighting another tower on fire. 'I know what you are going say. I need to go but thats happening.' Ragnar grumbled and growled. "I want you hear too but i dont want you dead. My brother is determined to take a dragon down." Said Urd. 'He may be a walking stick but you got a point.' Ragnar growled then heard a noise. "What is it?" Said Urd as his flap ears were moving to locate the noise. A loud screech and crashes caught their attention close by until Urd screamed feeling a something crash right into the tree where she was making her fall. She managed to a hit a few branches during the fall and land roughly into the leaves. 'Urd are you okay?' Ragnar from the trees looking down. "Im fine. Go check it out while i get home." Said Urd getting up. She stood feeling a bit sore from the fall and tried to pull out the sticks and leaves until her left wrist hurted like hell. "This isnt good." Said Urd looking at her wrist to see it slowly swollen. She began walking back to the village as the Vikings spotted her and rushed over. "What happened? Did the dragon hurt you?" Said the man with a blonde mustache and bald head checked her. "I was dropped during the Nightfury attack but i think i landed on my wrist when i fell." Said Urd. "Lets get you to Gothi. I'll let your father know what happened." Said the man. "Thanks Sven." Said Urd before looking back for a second while they walked to the remains of the village.
