//Never Judge A Book By It's Cover.//
You were the only one of your kind ever since Vikings found out about you kind existence. you were just a kid( your that same age as Astrid)and yet it felt like it just happened yesterday.
You were just with you...
Great Hall - Night It was dark brewing stormy night outside. The great doors rattle on their hinges.
Gobber: "Alright. Where did Astrid go wrong in the ring today?" The recruits are seated at a table, eating dinner by the glow of the fire pit.
Astrid: "I mistimed my summersault dive. It was sloppy. It threw off my reverse tumble." Eye rolls from the group.
Ruffnut: "(Sarcastic) Yeah. We noticed."
Snotlout: "(grabbing Astrid's hand) No, no, you were great. That was so 'Astrid'."
Gobber: "She's right, you have to be tough on yourselves". Creak. All eyes turn to Hiccup, entering the hall, sheepishly. Gobber glares at him.
Gobber: "(glaring at Hiccup) Where did Hiccup go wrong?" He tries to take a seat at the table...
Ruffnut: "He showed up."
Tuffnut: "He didn't get eaten. ..." but the recruits keep closing the gaps. Rolling his eyes, Hiccup sits at the vacant table next to them.
Astrid: "He's never where he should be."
Gobber: "Thank you, Astrid." Gobber stands.
Gobber: "You need to live and breathe this stuff." Gobber lays a giant book in the center of the table.
Gobber: "The dragon manual. Everything we know about every dragon we know of." A Rumble of thunder shakes the hall. Rain pours down outside.
Gobber: "No attacks tonight. Study up." Gobber Exits into the storm, leaving the teens staring at the book.
Tuffnut: (you've got to be kidding) "Wait, you mean read?"
Ruffnut: "While we're still alive?"
Snotlout: "Why read words when you can just kill the stuff the words tell you stuff about?"
Fishlegs: "Oh! I've read it like, seven times. There's this water dragon that sprays boiling water at your face." Snotlout turns his head at he what a weird questioning expression on his face as Fishlegs continues. "And there's this other one that buries itself for like a week..." The teens stare as Fishlegs goes on too long. Tuffnut then interrupted him.
Tuffnut: "Yeah, that sounds great. There was a chance I was going to read that..."
Ruffnut: "...but now..." Snotlout gets up to go.
Snotlout: "You guys read, I'll go kill stuff." The others follow, with Fishlegs in tow.
Fishlegs: "Oh and there's this other one that has these spines that look like trees..." Fishlegs left. Astrid is the last to go.
Hiccup: "So I guess we'll share--"
Astrid: "Read it." She pushes it toward him and leaves.
Hiccup: "All mine then. Wow, so okay. I'll see you--" Astrid slams the door on her way out.
Hiccup: "Tomorrow. (Sighs)."
Later That Night In The Great Hall hiccup walk8 in with a candle. Got over to the table where the book was.
Opening the massive book and down. Thunder Booms outside. The hall is vacant and dark, but for the few candles he's pulled together. Hiccup pours through page after page of strange and frightening dragons.
"Dragon classifications. Strike class. Fear class. Mystery class." Hiccup turns the page.
