Hey! I should be working on my other stories right now but had the plot bunny come into my head and wouldn't leave me ALONE! So i figured since this was fairly short i would write it down for y'all and let you enjoy it :)


Hiccup sighed heavily as he looked down at a sketch of his newest, failed, invention. A dragon raid had come and so he had gone out to test it…only to destroy half a house. "I suppose it could have been worse."

Crumpling the paper in frustration he sat down at his desk and began flicking the pencil up just for it to roll back down, the process repeating several times. He had received another, very loud, lecture from his father about his inventions and the destruction they brought. That in-itself wasn't what was bothering him right now, he had received them enough to just brush them off for the most part.

No. What was bothering him was the twins. Not a day before the raid they had lost—so they said—half of their fish supply in some stupid prank on Sven. And they only received a mild punishment for it! No village hating them or down putting them, just a mild punishment of cleaning the dragon pens. So what was different about him and them?

The amount of destruction wasn't it, the twins caused just as much throughout the week as Hiccup did during a single raid. Could it be their standing in life? He was the heir after all so it made sense to hold him up to a higher standing…yet they held him so low that it couldn't be that. So what was it?!

Hiccup glared at the various papers hanging on the wall in front of him while he thought. He was about to just give up and blame it on him being a hiccup when a single word popped into his head—Loki.

The twins served Loki. Everyone knew it so when they 'Lokied' someone they couldn't get into a horrendous amount of trouble because they were just dutifully and faithfully serving their god of choice. Just like the rest of Berk serves Thor, Hiccup mused.

It was a well-known fact of Berk that unless you openly declared to serve someone else, you automatically served Thor.

Hiccup grinned, finally seeing what he had been missing before. He was currently serving Thor and was failing because should be…he should be serving Loki. It made sense, he was basically born to serve him. He was a runt and the runt belonged to Loki. Also he never thought with his fists like Thor but used his mind and cunning like Loki.

Hiccup ran out of his little room in the forge and to his house, finding it empty. It didn't bother him though, he had to think for a while before his father came back—no doubt he wouldn't like what Hiccup had to say.

The hours seemed to pass slowly until the sun went down and Hiccup heard the door close. He peeked out of his room to see his dad walk in. Taking a deep breath to steady his nerves Hiccup left his room and walked downstairs, "D-dad?"

Stoic turned after he finished pouring himself a cup of mead, "Hiccup, what is it? Please tell me you didn't blow anything else up."

He hurriedly shook his head, "No, everything is still in one piece."

Stoic breathed a sigh of relief, "Good, good. What did ya need?"

Hiccup swallowed thickly, "I, came to say that I finally figured out what I'm supposed to do."

Stoic blinked several times before he smiled, "Finally saw the sense to quit making those inventions of yours did you!?"

"No." Hiccup said carefully, and a little shakily as he fought to keep his voice steady, "No I finally figured out that I'm supposed to be serving Loki, not Thor."

Stoic spit out a bit of the mead that he had been drinking, "I'm sorry Hiccup, you said that you're supposed to be serving Loki?"

Hiccup nodded, "Yes, i-it makes sense. I'm a runt and, well, runts shouldn't really serve Thor. And basically everything I do serves Loki more than Thor in any case."

Stoic stood and gripped Hiccup by the shoulders, "Son, I don't think you know what you're saying. Berk lives to serve Thor not Loki."

"But the twins do! And no one says anything against that!" Hiccup refuted.

Stoic frowned, "The twins are the twins, we couldn't really do much with them anyway. But Hiccup, you are different-"

"Exactly! I should be-"

"Not in that way! In that way yes—but that's not what I mean! Son, you are the heir to this tribe and this tribe serves Thor. They can't be having a chief who serve one god while they serve another."

"Why not? Dad I've all but been born into serving Loki." He gestured to all of himself. "You tell me otherwise. It'd be insulting to Thor!"

"I'm not saying that but you can't serve his brother while leading a tribe that serves him! Get that through your head."

"I understand that but I don't think it matters, Loki's already laid claim and Thor hasn't done anything to say otherwise!"

Stoic went to rebuke the idea but couldn't find any solid ground to combat Hiccup's last statement. "Hiccup you are not doing this and that is final."

"You can't stop me dad, I've already decided to serve Loki."

Stoic whirled around, red in the face, "Hiccup-"

"I just thought you'd want to know. I'm serving Loki, not Thor."

Stoic could only stand there with a frown while Hiccup walked back to his room. After he disappeared he finally let out a breath, "Oh Thor why?" He muttered as he rubbed the area between his eyes, feeling a two ice block headache coming on.


The teenagers of Berk, minus Hiccup, sat at a table in the Great Hall. It was lunch and they were all discussing the news and other senseless topics of the week. However, two in particular were very quiet as they conversed with one another. Tuffnut grinned as he leaned closer to his sister, "You're kidding me right? This is some kind of terrible trick?"

Ruffnut shook her head, "No Tuff, I'm not kidding. I overheard it from the chief while he was talking to Gobber, Hiccup has officially declared to serve Loki."

Tuffnut's eyes began to gleam as tears of joy threatened them, "Oh Loki let it be so! Oh the destruction that boy can wreak, in fell swoop too—oh he'd be perfect."

Snotlout turned to talk to Tuffnut after Astrid had punched him once again for hitting on her when he tuned into the last part of their conversation, "What are you two talking about?"

Tuffnut suddenly sat up straight and said quickly, "Nothing!"

Ruffnut stood and grabbed Tuff and marched out of the Hall before either could say anything more. Snotlout looked at them in confusion before turning to the others, "Uh, that was weird, right?"

Fishlegs shrugged while Astrid said, "The twins are weird in general."

"Well duh but you can not admit that they were weirder than usual."

Again Fishlegs and Astrid shrugged and Snotlout groaned before getting up and following them.


Hiccup pounded away on a broken sword when someone yelled behind him, "Hiccup!"

"Ah!" He turned, wide-eyed, as he held the hammer close. "Tuffnut!"

Both the twins snickered, "You were full on Lokied."

Hiccup glared coldly, "I was working, thank you."

"Hiccup, Hiccup, you must learn to take a break now and then. Especially now that you've joined the club!"

"Wha-" He started to breath before Ruffnut cut him off.

"Allow my brother and I to teach you the finer arts of Loki-ing people. It is a great skill and one you have a fine potential for."

Hiccup suddenly realized now what they meant, "Uh, how did you guys find that out?"

Ruffnut grinned, "When one choses to serve Loki in such a place as Berk you tend to learn who they are very quickly."

Tuffnut leaned on Hiccup's shoulder as he continued on, "Not to mention that Ruff overheard the chief telling Gobber about it."

"Yeah, he sounded pretty mad." Ruff grinned.

Hiccup pushed Tuff's arm off his shoulder, "Uh, yeah. He was pretty mad."

"Understandable Hiccup." Ruffnut said in almost a, soothing way? Hiccup looked at her through the corner of his eye as she came closer and pat him on the back.

Tuffnut nodded, "Yeah, I would be too if I was Thor's chosen and my son chose to serve my hated brother."

"Tuff? Thor doesn't hate Loki, disagree sometimes but they don't hate each other."

"Tomato-tomato."

"And what do you mean my dad is 'Thor's chosen'?"

Ruffnut and Tuffnut folded their hands in a professional manner as Tuffnut answered, "Well my dear Hiccup, Chief Stoic is in every sense of the word—the embodiment of Thor. He's strong-"

"And brave to a stupid degree." Ruffnut added.

"And fits what Thor would be on Midgard perfectly." Tuffnut concluded.

"So? He's just upset because I'm choosing a 'non-Viking-like' path again."

Ruffnut clasped her hands together, "Well what can you do when you're Loki's chosen? It only makes sense that you follow him."

"Ruff, I'm not-"

Tuffnut stopped him with a figure to the lips and Hiccup rolled his eyes, "O' contraire my friend, you are. You're a runt."

Ruffnut grinned, "You're always causing mass destruction."

"Thank you for that reminder." Hiccup grumbled.

"And best of all, you think like Loki himself!" Tuffnut beamed.

"Oh gods." Hiccup buried his head into his hands, "Guys, the reason I'm following Loki is so that I don't get into as much trouble when something like…last night happens."

"Exactly!" Ruffnut yelled, "You've finally realized who you truly are!"

Hiccup opened his mouth to refute them when he stopped and blinked, thinking for a moment…"Why are you guys doing this?"

"Duh." Tuffnut said smartly as Ruffnut finished.

"Because you're one of us now!"

"Wait, you really want me to be around you guys?" Hiccup asked in shock.

Both Ruffnut and Tuffnut nodded their heads, "Of course fellow trickster!"

Hiccup looked between the two with cautious and calculating eyes, "You're not just pulling my leg and dropping me tomorrow, are you?"

Tuffnut frowned, "No! We couldn't do that to our only other Loki follower." He leaned over and whispered into Hiccup's ear, "We're a bit outnumbered here on Berk if you haven't noticed. All of them following Thor, heathens."

"I guess what have I got to lose?" Hiccup sighed.

"YES!" Both twins cheered as they ran over and crushed Hiccup in a hug.

"Uh-" Hiccup said unsure, not used to such affection.

The door to the forge was suddenly thrown open and Snotlout march in, "What in Thor's name are you two doing!?" The look of disbelief and bewilderment written all over his face.

"What does it look like?" Ruffnut asked.

Tuffnut finished, "Hiccup's a trickster follower now! Isn't it awesome! Think of the havoc we can now wreak, together!"

Snotlout frowned and Hiccup took a subconscious step back, "No, no this isn't 'awesome', this is LUDICROUS! Why him!"

"Because he's the perfect Loki follower." Tuffnut explained, "He was born to serve him."

Snotlout glared at the three of them before leaving. He passed Astrid and Fishlegs who stood outside, "Well? What was it?"

Snotlout scoffed, "Apparently, Hiccup now 'follows' Loki and is the twins new best friend."

"Seriously?" Astrid asked, stifling a laugh.

The twins exited the forge, grins and giggles, and passed the trio who looked at them suspiciously, "What are you looking at?" Ruffnut asked.

"Did you guys really just make friends with Hiccup?" Fishlegs asked, almost apprehensively.

Tuffnut and Ruffnut shrugged as the latter answered, "Yeah, how could we not,"

"He's our brother in Loki-ing! Because, you know, he's not really our brother in blood…that would just be weird. I think, wouldn't it? Yeah it would." Tuffnut concluded.

Snotlout just rolled his eyes and walked away with a unsettled grunt and Astrid shook her head before following—in the opposite direction.

Fishlegs watch the twins walk away, discussing between themselves about how much Hiccup would help them Loki people and everything he could build for it. Fishlegs looked between them and the forge before steeling himself and walking in. Hiccup had resumed his work on the sword and Fishlegs watched him for several minutes while he worked.

Hiccup stopped banging on the sword due to the feeling that someone was watching him. Turning he saw that Fishlegs was watching him. Brow knit in confusion he asked, "Something I can help you Fishlegs?"

This seemed to startle the boy as he squeaked before answering, "Uh y-yeah, sort of…Hiccup-" Hiccup blink as he waited and Fishlegs gulped, "I-I was wondering if, well, we could be friends? Since you are with the twins and, well, it might be nice to have someone else besides them…"

Hiccup laughed as he smiled stupidly, "You want to be friends, with me?"

Fishlegs drew in the ground with his foot, "Yes, if you don't want to I get it, I've ignored you with the rest of-"

He was cut off by Hiccup, "No, Fishlegs…I would love to officially be your friend. But if you mind me asking, why?"

"Well, the twins made friends because you have a common thread so I thought, you like books and I like books and no else really does so, well-"

Hiccup laughed, both at how this day was going and at Fishlegs uneasiness. "Fishlegs, I've always considered you my friend."

"Really? Even though I ignored you?"

Hiccup shrugged, "I'm a hiccup, even my own father forgets I'm here half the time. I don't blame you for that."

Fishlegs grinned and ran over to Hiccup, squeezing him in a hug, "Thank you, thank you!"

Hiccup grinned, "I should be thanking you."

"Oh, oh, I have this new book about a land called India and it's really interesting. You want to go through it together?"

Hiccup grinned and nodded, "I'd love too! After I finish up here."

"Great! I'll go get it!" Fishlegs ran off to get the book and Hiccup stood there, dumbfounded, for a moment.

Shaking his head he looked up before returning to the mangled sword. "Loki, why didn't I do this sooner?" He laughed as he began pounding out the dings again, "Thank you so much Loki."


And done! Well i hope you enjoyed it. It was just a thought of 'well what would have happened if Hiccup followed a different yet still Viking-technically-path. I was planning to just do a one shot with this but i can continue on for a little while longer into the movie with certain changed if that would interest you guys. Hope you enjoyed and leave your thoughts in a review! Have a great day!
