Hi so I'm new to fanfiction so please don't be too harsh although some constructive criticism will be accepted as long as it's not outright rude. This is a story that I have been thinking about writing for a while. I read somewhere where someone said that most modern AU didn't have enough toothless. They suggested something like him being a service dog so that's where I got that idea from I wish I could remember their name and of course I don't own any characters from How to Train Your Dragon, but the rest of the ideas came from my imagination. Ok well here goes!

*Third person POV*

Valka quickly turns off the stove eye as she walks away from the stove to answer the phone. Of course she already knew who it was before she answered. It was her best friend Elizabeth or better known as Liz.

"Hello?" Val says as she picks up the phone.

"Val! I just had a wonderful idea for what we can do tonight!" Liz exclaims skipping any form of greeting. Val laughs at her friend's excited tone before inquiring what her brilliant idea was.

"Ok so you can come over in an hour or so and while little Hiccup and Astrid plays we can watch that new movie I bought till time for their nap and while they are asleep you and I can bake Hiccup a birthday cake to surprise him! And don't worry I've already called all their friends' parents so they will be over around three or four for the party. The little birthday boy will be so surprised!" Liz explains barely taking a break to breath. Val laughs in delight at the idea of how happy Hiccup will be to play with his friends. He was often a quiet little boy but he had an amazing imagination and was always smiling.

"That is a great idea Liz! But you need to remember to breath or you won't be baking at all. So what kind of cake should we make?" Val asks while still giggling quietly at her friend's excitement. She heard a thump in the kitchen and called over her shoulder for her son to be careful and go play with his toys till she got off the phone. She knew he probably wouldn't listen and she would have to get off the phone soon.

"Ok well you know how he is obsessed with dragons right? Well he drew Astrid some pictures and with your artistic skills I believe that we could make a cake with them on it! Oh and I had a great idea about trying this new thing with mixing the different types of batters to make a very colorf-" Liz was cut off on her rant when a piercing scream was heard from Val's end of the line.

"HICCUP! Liz I have to go Hiccup just hurt himself in the kitchen again. I will see you in an hour. Bye!" Val hung up before getting a reply and rushed to the kitchen to see her son, who turned six today, on the floor crying while holding his chin in his hand. A little blood was seen dripping from between his fingers and a small knife used to cut fruit was on the floor next to him.

"Oh sweetie what happened?" Val asked as she picked him up and carried him to the bathroom.

"I-I was ju-just trying to see wh-what you were making a-and it fell off and h-hit m-m-me." He sobbed as his mom gently moved his hands to clean the cut on his chin. It was deep enough to leave a scar but shouldn't need stitches. She quickly cleaned it and placed a band-aid over the wound before looking seriously into her sons watery, red eyes.

"Now you know why I told you to stay out of the kitchen right? So next time I tell you you better listen or you will be grounded and won't be able to go play with Astrid and the others later." She sternly told him as he tried to catch his breath from crying so much and wiped his eyes with his tiny fists. I grabbed a tissue and whipped his face off before telling him to blow his nose.

"Will you kiss it so it won't hurt no more?" he asked innocently with wide green eyes.

"Of course," she replied as she kissed the band-aid. "Is that better?" He nodded with a smile and I carried him to his room to change his shirt since some blood had dripped on it.

"Now you stay here while I put daddy's dinner up for him ok?" Stoick was chief of the police department and often worked late. He had really wanted to be here for Hiccups birthday but he was not able to.

The rest of the afternoon was pretty uneventful as the kids played and sang to Hiccup who wouldn't stop beaming happily.

*Hiccups POV*

I grinned happily as I stared at my birthday cake. Momma had drew copies of my dragons all over the cake and aunt Liz promised it would taste really good. I glanced over at Astrid as she sneakily ran a finger over the side of the cake and quickly ate some icing. She smiled over at me revealing blue tinted teeth from the frosting and I giggled while nudging my cousin Snotlout in the side to show him. His name was really Steve but that was boring. Soon all of us were giggling loudly. It was only a few hours later but we were all tired from running around and playing with some of my new toys. I was half asleep when I heard my mom's voice speaking desperately to Aunt Liz. She sounded really worried and I wanted to comfort her and ask why but I was too tired.

I feel her gently but hurriedly pick me up and strap me in my seat. The car roared to life and about halfway home I woke up and watched to trees speed by after a few minutes I see headlights coming up fast and my mom cursed and tried to go faster. We have never went this fast before and I was starting to feel scared as the green of the trees flashed by in the rapidly darkening night. The other car had caught up to us and I felt a harsh bump hit our car as the other one rammed into our bumper. I screamed as we swerved and the car hit us again this time our car went skidding off the road as mom lost control. I was crying and screaming for momma before the car began tipping and finally settling on it roof still scraping along the ground. After a small distance the car slammed into a tree finally stopping its momentum. What was left of the windows shattered with the impact and I couldn't seem to find my voice. I could see my mom hanging by her seat belt but my eyes were acting funny and everything kept getting really blurry.

My head was really starting to hurt and I just wanted momma to hold me and promise I would be ok but she wasn't moving. My ears were ringing really loudly and I saw a shadow reach through momma's window they cut her seatbelt and drug her out of the window and I could barely see them anymore but I thought I heard them say something about leaving someone. Was they talking about me or momma? I didn't have any more time to think of it as my world finally fell into total blackness.

So what do you think? Should I continue this story? This is only the prologue
