Prolouge
My name is Crystal I am an only child, make that the chiefs only child. It has its ups and downs. Up I am a daddies girl and nobody can touch me without consequences. Down size I am a Hiccup, so naturally nobody notices me getting pushed around. Plus side nobody notices me, so when all of a sudden a few nails or bolts go missing from a cart and everything inside of the cart is rolling down a hill, nobody knows who it was. They always assume that it was one of the boys.
Anyway our village, Norora, has this problem where dragons come to our island and destroy everything. So it is basically kill or be killed. over the years we have kind of made a competition out of it. Not the competition of who can kill the most dragons, no this is a competition of who can kill the biggest and the baddest dragon. So far my father has is at the top of the leader board for killing a Stormcutter.
We don't get many 'impressive' dragons just the big five, Deadly Nadders, Monstrous Nightmares, Terrible Terrors, Gronckles, and Hideous Zippleback. Every now and then we get Stormcutters, Thunderdrums, and Snaptrappers. The number one dragon to kill is a Night Furry. Maybe just maybe if I could kill at least one dragon I wouldn't be known as the village wimp or the village Hiccup.
My fathers best friend keeps trying to talk my dad into letting me train with all of the other teens in the village. So far my father has gave me permission to do what I have been doing since the day I could, read. I have read all of the books my village owns, which isn't many, twice, and the book that nobody is aloud to read, except for my dad, The Book of Dragons. If you are one of the lucky vikings who my father allows to read it you are either the next Chief or a high ranking officer. Even though I am going to be the next chief my father wouldn't let me read it, so one day when he had to be all over the island I grabbed the book from its terrible hiding spot and read it cover to cover.
I have also watched a training class before, and if for some reason my father would ever let me train I would train with four other people. The one that is book smart but couldn't do a single thing she knows is, Eria. Next on the list is Rolph he is cute smart and loves to show off. Asta was one of my best friends growing up, but if you ask her about she will deny everything she will just say that she only knows my name because I am the chiefs daughter. Next is Dusty he is as bright as the bottom of the ocean. His twin sister on the other hand is only slightly brighter by about a hair. Her name is Alva.
I wonder if I left how long it would take them to realize that I am missing. To be honest I probably could be kidnapped right in front of the village's eyes and nobody would think anything of it. Well then now that you know a little bit about me and the village lets see how things unfold.
