I woke up feeling strange, not like a bad strange, but a good strange (if that makes sense). I felt strong, agile, more aware of my surroundings, things that I've never ever felt in my whole 18 years of life. Got to say, I felt better than ever. I felt like I can run around the Edge faster than speed stinger.

The events of my" dream" from the previous night came flooding back to me. Who would have thought I was the son of a god, A Greek no less. A lot of confusing things suddenly became clear to me. Like that time I survived with the submaripper even though I know for a fact that anyone else would have died. My weird fixation with the sea and how calming it was for me. The time I  didn't die of  from eating that raw fish when I first met Toothless. 

I also began to wonder if Stoick knew about this. Was this the reason he avoided me for years. Was this the reason I needed to sleep in the Forge most days. Is this the reason he said I'm not his son. Granted that might have been an 'in the moment' thing, but it still can't be a coincidence.

I sat up to stretch and felt toothless shift from my lap as I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes. 

"Morning bud, how did you sleep"?

Course I knew he wasnt going to answer me. I just thought I'd give him the courtesy. It's not like my dragon can tal-

" I slept well, thank you for asking Hiccup".

I fell back and landed on the hard ground, startled by The Voice. I reached for Inferno on my night stand and unleash the mechanism.

" WHOS THERE"?! I yelled. fire dripping from my blade and landing on the floor( though the heat was not enough to set the floor aflame).

" It's just me Hiccup", a voice came from behind. I jumped forward and let out what I want to say was a manly scream. even though I doubt the manliness that was contained in the scream.

This didn't make any sense, the only person in the room besides me was Toothless. And I know for a fact that my dragon can't talk-

" How do you not recognize your own dragon, Hiccup"? My heart skipped a few Beats at that. But in all honesty this is not been the weirdest thing to happen to me today. Compared to me finding out I'm a God, this is basically nothing. Nonetheless I looked at my dragon you spoke uncertainly.

"Toothless, but is that you bud"?

"Of course it's me Hiccup, who else would it be"?

"SWEET BABY THOR! YOU CAN TALK"! 

He gave me his 'super adorable Dragon confused face look'. You know that one where he tilts his head to the side and his eyes get Hela big. Yeah you know the one.( Also if you're wondering why I'm being hella meda with this conversation, why the heck not.)

" course I can speak. Wait, you're telling me you couldn't understand me this whole time".

" Of course I couldn't understand you. YOUR A FRIKIN DRAGON"! This is really happening right now. I must be dreaming still or something. DAD if this is your doing, STOP IT.

" Then how come every question I asked, you answered it"? He said with that adorable look still plastered on his face.

" I-i-i was just guessing", course I didn't know what he was saying, again, he's a dragon.

He finally gave me a look of understanding. He was not sitting there with an equally cute look, contemplating something.

 " oh so that's why when I asked you if you were going to marry Astrid, you replied to me with ' of course I'll take you out on the flight bud' ".

I could feel my cheeks start to Redden. You forgot this question mixed up, then how many others did I answer wrong. Toothless continue to speak.

" Of course I thought you were answering me because you're the God of Dragons and you could understand me".

Wait-WHAT.

" Toothless, are you telling me you knew this whole time".

" Of course I knew, didn't you"?

" Bud, I just found out about 5 minutes ago".

Then it all clicked. Why was he able to train toothless oh, why was able to convince the dragons to let the gang ride them, why I seem to be able to train any species effortlessly.

"Huh, imagine that ,oh, by the way Hiccup there's a chest on your workbench that came in the night".

A chest for me oh, but I never get anything from anyone. I jumped off the Loft of my hut and landed softly to the ground. When I looked on the workbench I saw what toothless was talking about.

The chest itself was made of beautiful oak, sanded to perfection. It had a bronze Trim in a picture of Toothless carved into the top. I approached the Box slowly checking for traps. The last time I open the mysterious chest I got a face full of paint and twins laughing at me all day. I open the chest and looked inside and its contents blew my breath away.

"OH -MY-THOR", I exclaimed pulling out a beautiful white bow. It was made out of a metal that I've never seen before in the hilt was encrusted with sapphires (Think auriel's bow from Skyrim). ' just like Astrid's eyes' I mused. I noticed a note attached to one of the limbs. I pulled it off and read it aloud.

" a late birthday present, from Dad", I smile to myself knowing that there was not going to be one dull moment with Poseidon as my father. And I get the feeling this is just the start.

" I always thought Hephaestus was he only God who can make weapons like that, seems I was wrong", Toothless commented. I stared at my best friend in bewilderment.

" you know about Greek mythology", I was strangely impressed with my best friend.

" Burk was the only place we used to raid, the queen like us to know about the places we were rausing". I decided to drop the conversation at that, for I did not want him to return to Dark Places.

I pulled back the golden string to test the draw. As soon as it went far enough back a Golden arrow shimmered into existence, nocked and ready. The arrow itself out of bronze tip and a pure white feather. I looked at my new-found weapon in appreciation. Imagine all the destruction I can do with this, This must be what the twins feel like on a daily basis. I said the bow down gently on my desk, and returned my gaze to the chest.

The next thing I pulled out was even more amazing. I held up a suit of white armor made from the same metal as the bow. There was also a pair of white robes that went under the armor.( think Ezio's armor from AC Brotherhood but all white). This also had armored boots and bracers made from the same metal, still. I saw a small mechanism under the bracers in move to investigate. I put the bracers are on and found a mechanism underneath the armor plates. It looks like a magnetized ring and I was supposed to put on my finger. I put it on my finger and gave it a date flick for testing to see if it would stay on. From the underside of the bracer shotta small blade about a foot long. When I flicked my finger back it retracted back into the bracer. 

Upon looking at the mechanism with finer detail I found a cool new function. I unleashed the blade again impressed the new Switch. Blade instantly caught flame just like Inferno. I didn't know how Poseidon managed to do it, but he did it. 

The last thing I pulled out made me the most excited. I pulled up a new blade identical to Inferno but with the white metal. This one seemed to be stronger and lighter too. I turned in my best friend and spoke.

" Bud I need you to get out, I'm about to change", give a nod of understanding walked out the door, shutting it with his tail.

I had the pants and the boot when someone open the door.

" Hiccup, get up it's time for- oh my Thor, I'm so sorry"! Astrid started to say before covering her eyes. It would have been a nice gesture if she wasn't peeking through the cracks in their fingers. She let out a gasp at the sight before her.

I'm going to admit I haven't been completely honest with you guys in my description of myself. My arms and torso I've had two layers upon layers of scars and welts on them all cascading across my chest like angry craters. When I was captured with Toothless in the arena, they wanted to know what do the fences at Berk and the Edge were like. Obviously I didn't tell them, which pissed them off. At least they allowed me to wear a shirt after the tortue, which was something. I had tried getting tattoos to cover them up but it only managed to conceal a few. I tried to grab a blanket before she could see, but it was for naught. She had seen my scars. She'd seen my shame.

When I finally made eye contact with her I saw hurt teary-eyed and had a hand covering her mouth. She pointed a shaky finger at me, trying to convey her thoughts into words.

"H-h-hiccup, what are those"?

" They're uh, they're scars, Astrid"?

 ( yo guys it's about to get steamy real quick, If you want to back out now you can)Her eyes narrowed in irritation," I know their scars muttonhead, where did you get them"? When I didn't answer her she looked even more irritated. She started walking towards me at a steady dramatic pace. I backed up until I touch the wall, but still she came forward. She got close enough to where I can see into her stormy blue eyes Oh, I thought as if lightning we're striking through them. She lightly traced the scar over my right pectoral, causing you to shiver.

" How did you get this one", she questioned in a voice that sounded strangely......SEXY. I tripped over myself trying to find words that wouldn't get me punched, kicked, or decapitated.

"Well uh-Riker is a bit too good with that sword of his", I answered, cringing at the memory. The cold, hard steel digging through my warm, soft flesh. The maniacal look on his face that made me shrink in Terror. Oh how I wanted to get those images out of my head oh, but they wouldn't leave, like Vikings defending their home.

She lent down and kissed the scarred tissue gently, making me to tense up and let out a small groan. This is honestly the weirdest thing it happened today, and that's saying something.

"A-A-Astrid, what are you doing"?

She looked up at me for the predatory gleam In Her Eyes, Like A Deadly Nadder hunting for food. Look of determination with the same as that of the one she showed him battle. But this one was different oh, it was laced with something different, lust, and hunger. Two things which I would never expect from her, at least towards me.

She gave me a questioning glance and shoved me against the wall harder.

" Really Hiccup, you don't know what I'm doing, I seen you of all people would be able to deduce with that great, big, brain of yours what I'm doing", she said resume her task directly after.

" I know, NURGH, I know what you're doing, I just want to know why".

It took her a moment to answer, for she was going about her task as if Dad( Stoick) told her to do it. Effectively, and without hesitation. She reluctantly pulled up from her task to look me in the eye.

" I'm doing this because I got tired of waiting for you to grow a pair, and kiss me", she spat angrily ," everyone on the Edge knows that you're in love with me, why don't you just man up and say it"!

I tried to back away from her Wrath, but the wall seems to be on her side, forget me there unmoving.

" you sound uh-passionate, about this", I said silently, praying to every God I know that I would survive this ordeal. I get the feeling it's not enough though for her glare was enough to bring grown men weeping to their mothers. I surprisingly held strong though.

" This is how it's going to go hiccup oh, you're going to admit that you're in love with me", she said grabbing my shoulders and pulling me closer," or I'm going to make you". With each word she got closer and closer until I could almost feel her nose on mine.

" So are we going to do this the easy way, or the hard way"?

I was about to reply when I heard a knock at the door.

" HICCUP, it's time for breakfast"!

Fishlegs. I have never been more glad in the 15 years that I've known him, to hear his voice. Astrid gave out a half of annoyance and let go of me. Careful not to make any sudden moves I yelled back:

" I'll be out in a minute legs, just let me get dressed"!

Astrid narrowed her eyes at me," we will finish this later", and with that she stormed out of my Hut. I could hear Fishlegs speak from the outside.

" Oh hey Astr-OWWW"!

I slipped on a shirt and walked outside. Fishlegs was laying on the ground holding his head in pain. He turned to me.

" whatin Thor's name was that about"?

" Honestly Fishlegs, I have no idea".
