Hiccup's POV
I blearily opened my eyes to the sound of soft footsteps on the roof and Jack calling me. I pulled the blankets over my head and tried to ignore it. The footsteps came louder and I heard a roar from Toothless.
'Okay,okay I'm coming...' I mumbled. I yawned and attached my prosthetic leg. I creaked open the door and stepped out into the frigid air.
'Well good morning mr bossy boots.' I said, puffing out clouds of steam.
'I don't wear shoes.' Jack quipped. I rolled my eyes and then slipped over on an icy patch of ground. I clenched my teeth to stop the reflex tears.
'Ouch, that looked like that hurt.' He said, floating down and offered me his hand. I took it and brushed myself off. Toothless immediately pounced on me and started licking my face.
'Oh urrgghh Toothless! You know that's doesn't wash out!' I yelled indignantly. Jack chuckled and twirled his staff between his fingers.
'Well, ready to go?' I asked buckling my sword onto my leg.
'Always.' I smirked as I mounted Toothless
'Race ya!' I shouted taking off.
In the middle of the flight I wanted to try out my new flight suit and the locking of Toothless's tail.
'Okay Bud, ready to try this again?' He grumbled and I said
'Oh quit whining.'
Jack said
'Hiccup?' As I locked the tail fin and jumped off. Jack followed me, laughing.
' Haha! It's working! This is amazing!' I grinned through my mask.
'Less amazing!' I groaned as I saw sea stacks looming out of the mist. Jack tried to keep up but the wind seemed to be failing him a bit and he fell back. Toothless dived after me and crash landed me onto a new island.
'Woah! well that could of been worse.' I said pulling off my helmet.
'Hiccup! Are you okay?' Jack shouted worriedly, landing and then running straight towards me. He grabbed me by the shoulders and looked me right in the eyes. I stared into the frosty blue depths
'Jack, I'm fine! It's not like I haven't been in this situation before.'
'Oh, yeah.' Jack murmured, composing himself.
'Looks like we've found another one.' I muttered.
'What?' Jack yawned tossing his staff up and down
'Never mind.' I stretched out my map and sharpened my charcoal pencil. I started to sketch out the island. Jack made ice patterns next to me. We headed back after I had finished. Suddenly, curtains of light danced above us, swirling and swaying in a hypnotising way. Jack stopped and stared.
'North's calling everyone. I need to go. Something important is happening.'
'Be careful Jack otherwise, you know I'll kill you later.'
He grinned and yelled for the wind. He left me alone with a few snowflakes and the now fading Northern lights.
