Chapter 1 of watching hiccups life unfold

Authors note

This is my first time writhing a story so don't judge to harshly, trial and error and all that. I have read a lot of different fanfics myself and I especially enjoy fanfics where characters watch their past/future. I have read quite a few of those about how to train your dragon and I was like why not try it myself. Anyway I couldn't quite figure out from which point of time I wanted hiccup from because on the one hand he would fit but still didn't feel like it was quite right I guess and I had this with hiccup from every point of time so I decided to do things a little different…

''words'' talking

Words thoughts

words the movie itself


During different points in time multiple Vikings and dragons are blinded by a white light and get unceremoniously dropped in a sort of movie theater.

Valka is putting her 6 month old son Hiccup in his crib when a white light blinds her and she is suddenly transported to a strange room.

Stoick, Gobber and the rest of Berks vikings watch in horror as Hiccup and Toothless disappear into the boiling inferno when a white light blinds them and every viking and dragon (excluding the red death) present are suddenly transported to a strange room.

Toothless watches as his rider, his friend, his Viking hatchling falls deeper into the inferno created by the exploding body of the red death, desperately trying to reach him. When he too suddenly finds himself in a strange room.

Hiccup on the other hand has just opened his front door with the intent to leave for the forge when a dragon swoops directly towards it, blasting fire. The door is slammed shut. Then reopened and Hiccup leaves walking towards the forge. Unlike everyone else in his live past and present however, he will simply stay where he is living his live as he was meant to whilst the people and dragons who´s lives he affected will watch his story unfold from a new perspective.

Everyone is confused as to what was happening, where are they, who brought them here and how or more importantly why? When Gobber states ''If this is Valhalla I was conned by the gods'' at which point Gothi whacks him over the head with her cane. ''Ow! I was just saying paradise it is not'' to receive yet another whack from Gothi's cane.

Some Berkians and in turn some dragons begin to freak out, ''were all dead!?'' ''I can't be dead I'm too young'' ''I'm too handsome to die'' ''I can't be dead, I can't be dead, I can't be dead'' the dragons are screeching and roaring in distress whilst others tried to calm them down ''ye weren't even at the dragon nest so ye can't be dead ya idjit'' or simply sat back enjoying the chaos like Ruffnut and Tuffnut. Fishleggs on the other hand tried to figure out what could have possibly happened to make them end up here wherever here is. Stoick and Astrid just stood there frozen unable to comprehend what had occurred in the last 24 hours of their lives. Toothless unseen by everyone else is up on the rafters just underneath the movie theaters ceiling searching desperately for his Viking hatchling.

Breaking out of his frozen state Stoick finally speaks ''Silence!'' everyone quiets down. ''now has anyone seen Hiccup?''

Saying that she was confused would be an understatement, she was standing in a dark corner off the theater watching her husband and her village stand in the same room as dozens of dragons and not attacking them, how strange yet a delightful sight. When she heard her husband's desperate call to find hiccup she decided to step forward and reassure him of their safety.

Every Viking and dragon in the room starts to franticly look around when a familiar voice rings out ''don't worry I have hiccup right here'' many Vikings gasp and clear a path, the Vikings whisper ''it can't be'' ''she's dead'' ''is that..'' Stoick watches as his late wife walks through the crowd towards him with a soothing smile

''Va..Valka?'' confused as to her husband's strange behavior Valka tilts her head endearingly and steps forward, ''of course who did you think I was'' still smiling when the bundle she´s holding suddenly moves it breaks everyone out of a trancelike state.

It also makes a certain green eyed dragon jump down and grab the bundle quickly but gently from Valka's arms making scream in fear for her child. Everyone freezes temporarily when Astrid steps forward ''Toothless..give him back'' Toothless goes from cooing to baby hiccup to growling to Astrid.

'When I finally spotted my Viking hatchling he had changed, he is smaller much smaller and mostly bold strange maybe too much fire does this too Viking hatchlings, when they get in contact with too much fire they shrink, yes that must be it . Regardless he is still my Viking hatchling so I will take care of him not that strange female, even if she smells a lot like him. Hiccups mate cant have him either not when I just got him back.'

Astrid is about to try again when the screen lights up and letters start appearing.

Do not be afraid

You are not in any danger

Valka, Toothless the black dragon with green eyes

will hold onto baby Hiccup

he would never harm him ever

when the viewing starts he will reassure you of this himself

Valka is from the past, so is baby hiccup

you are here to view hiccups life past, present and future

everyone take a seat so we may proceed

Everyone takes a seat slowly, cautiously but surely. And the movie starts…


authors note:

Well I wanted to post this chapter ahead of time just to see if there was any interest in a story like this considering there are already quite a couple of the likes. And because I just started writing today I don't have a full proper chapter done yet so i am posting this ahead. I don't know when or if I am actually going to bring Hiccup in to the showing itself but I'm still writing so we'll see. I'm happy to hear ideas and suggestions but also not promising to follow them ;)
