    We skim above a dark, wild ocean. We turn toward a lone island, Berk. It is a gigantic shard of rock jutting straight out of the water.

    "This," I pause, "is Berk. It's twelve days North of hopeless, and a few degrees South of freezing to death. It's located solidly on the meridian of misery. " Your sight drifts over rolling hills to reveal a small village nestled on an outcropping of sea mounts.

   "Their village. In a word, sturdy. And it's been here for seven generations, but every single building is new." You see houses, scenes, brand-new huts. "They have fishing, hunting, and a charming view of the sunsets. The only problems are the pests. You see, most places have mice or mosquitos. They have..."

   A dragon hops out of its hiding place with a boy shouting at his back, screaming because of his excitement.

"Dragons."

   You see the boy at close-up. His leather vest is black; and his undershirt is red. His eyes are green; and surrounding it was black, as if he hadn't slept for days—in fact, he hasn't.

   "That's me."I say as a matter-of-fact. "I'm so handsome. I know, you don't have to remind me. Oh by the way, I'm Hiccup."

  "WOOOHOOOOO!!!!" I shout. "THIS IS AWESOMEEEEEEEE!!!!" The dragon roars with agreement, flying towards the coast. The coast is full of panicking people, some screaming. They shoot for the boy and the dragon; they all miss.

   "Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III."

   The dragon purrs. I roll my eyes. "But I'm enjoying this! You can't cut excitement off." It looked at me, and I gave in. "First, let's go shoot that chief's hut over there."

  "This is Toothless. He's a Night Fury; strongest ever known dragon; and the son of lightning and death itself. Trust me, you don't want to mess with him." Toothless skims across a flat land over the gigantic campfire that is in front of the chief's village. "He has incredible speed." Toothless flies in front of you as quick as lightning. "And he has super fire power. Plasma breaths, plasma shield, plasma wave." I scratch Toothless's neck and he let's go of a plasma wave that shook the entire island. Some huts nearby burst into flames. "He, by the way," I smile as I patted Toothless's head, "Never misses."

    BANG! KABLAM!

   Toothless's fire ball hits the chief's hut with full power; it crumbles into ashes almost instantaneously.

   "Oh, and one more thing," I laugh at how fragile the hut is. The chief comes running outside, unscratched. "I WILL COME FOR YOU, SON!"

   "Such as shame. Not dead. My dad and I don't have a great relationship, and yeah, he's the chief." Stoick the Vast raised an angry fist in the air, swearing revenge on his own son. Well, maybe I'm not his son. Not anymore.
