Hello there. I'm Hiccup, Hiccup the Intelligent. You may be wondering why I have such an odd name, but I'll tell you. I chose it myself, for what I thought was the best.

Yes, I always used to get the hiccups when I was young. Still do, but they come less frequently. There are a couple thing about me- me and my family- that most would consider unusual, even dangerous. But don't worry. We're no danger, at least when we feel that we're not being threated or under attack. But you don't have to take my word for it… you'll be here, with us, as we go through this wonderful circle of danger, family, friendship, flying, loyalty, and survival.

So there are five of us, just five:

-There's me, Hiccup the Intelligent. I'm the tallest of my Clan, being 6 feet tall, lithe but somewhat clumsy. I have straight and messy longish auburn hair that's braided in some parts, fair skin with freckles scattered across my nose, and emerald green eyes. I'm long-fingered and an artist, usually carrying a small journal with a pencil with me at all times, and a small dagger. They come in handy. I can sing pretty well, too, and talk my way out of any situation (I'm good with words). I'm also the leader of my Clan.

-There's Astrid the Brave, my best friend and second in command of the Clan. She's several inches shorter then I am, being 5'8, also lithe, but she's graceful. She has thick blond hair that ends at her shoulders and she always puts in a braid, fair skin that's smooth and soft, and blue eyes. She has a thing for spikes and she is in no way an artist of any type, but she can sing pretty well. Her weapon of choice is a double-sided axe that she can summon to her person at any time (don't ask, I'll tell later).

-There's Tuffnut the Acidic. She and I are friends, and she's my third. (I would never put the other two in charge- Snotlout and Ruffnut are so immature and act like children.) She's about the same height as Astrid, and she has long blond hair that's in two bunched up pigtails, lightly tanned skin with few blemishes, and sage green eyes, just like her twin, Ruffnut. She really, really loves explosives and has at least on bomb on her at all times. She can also cook. Tuffnut is motherly, however, and won't hesitate to comfort any one of us when we need it. Her weapon of choice is, of course, bombs, that she can summon (again, don't ask).

-There's Ruffnut the Mischievous. He and I are also friends, and honestly, I can't remember one moment in his life when he isn't smiling. He's Ruffnut's twin brother, with the same looks as her, except his hair is in dreadlocks that reach his shoulders, and his eyes are pale grey instead of green. Snotlout is his partner-in-crime and those two are best friends. He can play a pretty mean harmonica. He's immature, very immature. His weapon of choice is a sword (alright, I think you're getting the picture).

-Finally, there's Snotlout the Fiery. He and I are 1st cousins, surprisingly, and we're the only blood members of the Clan. He has straight and messy dark brown hair, golden brown eyes, and lightly tanned skin. He's muscled, heavily, unlike myself, and he's 5'10. He's the strongest of us all. He hits on Astrid, but one growl from me and he keeps his distance. His weapon of choice is a hammer (I don't think I need to say it).

So yeah, there's five of us in the Clan. Before you ask, no, you cannot join, because the Clan is a very exclusive…club… open to no one but us. Why? You might be asking. I'll give you an answer.

The five of us are mutants. Yes. Mutants, where we're 95% human and 5%... something. Not sure, but my bet is that it's a mix of some sort of reptile. But we're five percent reptile, and we have the whole shebang, wings and claws and scales and stuff. We also have a specific type of breath type.

I've got 16 foot black bat like wings and black scales around my spine. It's where my wings meet my back, and my pupils are split down the middle instead of circular. I can retract my claws by simple willpower. My breath type is electric- a main attack I use is plasma blast. A secondary breath attack is electric discharge, where I shock my enemies, although this takes a lot of power to use. I can fly the fastest, farthest, and longest out of everyone in my Clan.

Astrid has 14 foot multicolored, but mostly blue, bat like wings. Near the fingers, her wings curve into a sharp point, and she has silver blade claws on the ends of her wings. The ends of her wings have spikes on them that she can shoot outwards, making this an attack. She can unsheathe her claws and retract them with simple willpower, as well as coat them with ice. She has scales on the outside of her wings and a membrane on the inside. Her breath type is ice.

Tuffnut has 14 foot acid green bat like wings. She can fly pretty far, and her wings are thin but strong. She can fly for a while. Tuffnut can also coat her claws in poison and slash at her foes, making them drop. Her breath type is poison.

Ruffnut has 16 foot light blue bat like wings. He can fly fast, and his wings are like his sister's. Ruffnut can retract and unsheathe his claws at will, and his breath type is air. Out of the 5 of us, he is the best attacker in the air.

Snotlout has 18 foot dark red bat like wings. He can fly far, and his wings are 2 times thicker then the rest of ours are- just like him, his wings are muscled, and he has a high defensive level in battle, as well as a high attack level. His breath type is fire.

So now you know about us, what we are, and where we come from- oh, wait. I haven't told you that. Okay. So the five of us came from this place called the School. It's a pretty sick place where scientists do experiments on kids, making them not entirely human, and then testing on them and treating them like animals. We were five of those kids, and we escaped.

So now you know about us, what we are, and where we come from. Our story is pretty amazing, and unbelievable, and cool, but it's real because it's true.

My name is Hiccup.

And this is my story.
