_____________________a

I look around and see all the war ready faces of the men around me, even my father has a grin. I look toward the horizon and see countless dragons coming my way, even though I'm only ten my father and mother aloud me to be blooded for the first time.

I notice my father looking down at me, I try to control my shaking but nothing really helps.

"Son, fear has more than one meaning, Fear everything and run or Fight everything and Rise. There is no in between, make a choice now." Stoick the best dragon hunter also my father says with a serious face.

"But what if I don't want to fight." my 10 year old self asks.

"You have to, you have to find the will to fight because of those who can't fight for themselves." My father says while looking over his shoulder towards are house, I follow his gaze and see my mother holding my little brother.

"AHHHHHHH" I quickly look back and see Vikings taking off full speed to fight the dragons.

My father starts to grab his axe and says one final thing.

"A true warrior fights not because he hates what's in front of him, But because he loves what is behind him." with that just like everyone else my father charges into battle.

With a new sense of longing for battle, I charge headfirst into the firey blaze.

I look around discombobulated from all the screams and fire around me, I look left and see a gronckle on top of a Viking about to kill him.

All thoughts leave my mind and I blindly charge at the dragon, I heave my axe in the site and bring it down as hard as I can on the dragons neck.

And just like that the dragon falls over.

'I just have hit his spine.'

"Thanks Bjorn,." the Viking says before running toward another dragon. I turn around and see my father looking at me while holding a monstrous nightmares mouth closed, he has a huge smile on his face.

I ignore him for now but can't help but be happy inside.

...

The night quickly ends and by the time that the end of it I killed 3 dragons in one night.

"Well done son, I couldn't ask for a better-" before he could finish a scream made him look away, I watch as his face turns from fear to anger and he takes off running toward our house, I look at our house and see a dragon halfway inside our house.

"MOM!" I scream while taking off full speed toward the house.

...

My father got there first but by the time he did it was already to late a dragon grabbed my mom and started to fly away.

"MOM!" I scream but she's to far away to hear a response.

I look over at my father and see he has a broken look on his face.

"We have to "Stop!" we have to find her" stop " we have to start a search party."

"BJORN I SAID STOP!" you know better than anyone that we can't find their nest." after he yelled young baby hiccup started to cry.

My anger boiled to a point of no return I took off out of the house, I ran out to the docks past all the Vikings not wanting to waste any time.

I jump in the unguarded boat and start to untie things I have no clue how to sail but I'm not losing my mom.

I quickly write and note to my father and hiccup.

"Father, I am leaving to find mom. You probably have already guessed this but like you said we protect those who stand behind us, and we failed, I will not return till I find her. Don't come looking for me, because I won't return even if you find me."

I stuff both notes in a book and lay them on the dock.

I start to drift out to sea going the same direction as the dragon that took mom.

...

3 months later.

I ran out of supplies about a week ago, the fish have not been biting so things have been hard, every day that goes by I feel less confident In finding my mother.

I close my eyes and nod off not have expecting to find any land anytime soon.

...

*Thud*

I get thrown to the other side of the boat from the sudden impact.

I look up and see a flat island with massive ice structures all over it.

I hop off the boat and start to explore, I look around until I see footprints, I raise my axe and follow them soon leading me to a cave.

The footprints no longer are visible but I continue to walk inside until I hear a familiar voice.

"Bjorn?" I quickly turn around and see my mom. At that moment my emotions start to flow and I can't help buy cry. I walk forward and give her the biggest hug I ever have.

After a couple of minutes she pulls away and asks.

"Wheres your father?"

"I came alone, well I snuck away I mean." I say.

"If we go now, we can ride the current." I say trying to drag mom with me, but she pulls away.

I look back and see a sollen expression on her face.

"Mom come on we have to go now." I say trying to grab her hand again but she pulls away.

"I will stay." my mom says.

"What!" I exclaim.

"Why?" I ask confused.

"Because I can't keep living a life that is not for me." she says starting to walk away.

I follow her.

"What do you mean?" but I got my answer the moment I turned the corner.

"Dragons!"

Should I change anything?
