"We're taking a vacation. Forever." Hiccup stated as he checked inside the basket to make sure everything was still in there. The Night Fury stared at the former viking as he closed the basket lid.

Picking the basket back up, Hiccup saddled up on Toothless. He adjusted the basket to make sure it wouldn't fall off or open. When he was certain that it wouldn't do so, he gave his best friend a small nudge.

The dark dragon shot up in the air, and Hiccup pressed down his foot, releasing the tail fin. They swiftly flew out of the cove, never to be seen again for a long while.

Hiccup's auburn hair flew back as the breeze hit his face. As Toothless flew above the ocean, Hiccup looked back at the place he abandoned.

Berk.

His eyebrows furrowed slightly in a disgusted frown as he quickly looked back. There was no way he was ever returning to the tribe.

He needed to cut all bonds, starting with his name.

"Hiccup". Just the mere thought of it filled the boy with hate. He was NOT keeping that name.

"What would be a good name then?" The skinny male wondered out loud. Toothless looked up at him in confusion. "Oh, it's nothing bud." He assured.

Hm. What was it? Bryce? The boy wondered. No..I'm sure there was a name I had personally preferred when I was younger… The auburn frowned once again and was about to give up until he remembered.

Wait! I got it! His eyes suddenly lit up.

Brian. Brian Baruchel.

Brian smiled for the first time during that hour. He finally stopped thinking and focused on flying. They needed to find an island, fast. They definitely weren't going to rest in the middle of nowhere.

As if on cue, Brian saw a big spike of blue ice covered in mist. "Whoa." Brian gasped as he looked at it.

Toothless looked over as well. His eyes widened and he looked at Brian with hopeful eyes. "Sure bud, let's go explore."
