Arvid

(Arvid runs behind a torch pole and hides, just as flames reach around the corner. He looks behind it and on the other side, the Nightmare reaches to get Arvid. Odin punches the beast and jumps back to defend himself. The dragon tries to breathe fire, but coughs up only a few drops of flaming liquid instead, having exhausted its shots)

Odin: You're all out. *(Odin promptly defeats the Nightmare, which quickly flees.)" Arvid (v.o.): Oh, and there's one more thing you need to know. (The torch pole fall down and the torch starts to roll through the village, leaving destruction in its wake.)

(A high-pitched whistle is heard from the sky. The Vikings panic.)

Viking 1: BLACK DEATH!

Viking 2: GET DOWN! (From out of nowhere, an explosion tears the catapult apart) Odin: JUMP!

Arvid (v.o.): This thing never steals food, never shows itself, and... never misses. No one has ever killed a Black Death. That's why I'm going to be the first.

Kool: Man the fort, Hiccup. They need me out there! (He attaches an axe to his arm and begins to run out, but turns around at the doorway.) Kool (cont.): Go. Stay. Put. There. You know what I mean. (Arvid runs outside the fort, bringing his bolas launcher)

Viking #6: Hiccup, where are you going?!

Viking #7: Come back here!

Arvid: Yeah, I know! Be right back! (Arvid is pushing a cart with the automated catapult on it) (Odin captures several Nadders in a net and wrestles them. One tries to blast him with fire.) Odin: Mind yourselves! The devils still have some juice in them! (Arvid sets up his bola catapult on an empty hill and looks around.) Arvid: Come on. Gimme something to shoot at, gimme something to shoot at. (The camera pans around the night sky, and catches on a shadow, visibly blotting out the stars. It fires, and an explosion illuminates it, showing a visible shadow. He shoots, and a loud cry is heard as the shadow is seen plummeting down into a forest) Oh, I hit it! YES! I HIT IT! Did anybody see that? (A Monstrous Nightmare shows up and crushes Hiccup's bola launcher.) Except for you. (A shrill cry sounds from the hill, and catches Odin's attention. He saw the Monstrous Nightmare chasing Arvid, and gets up to go help him.)

Stoick: DO NOT let them escape!

Spitelout: Right!

Kool: You can't lift a hammer. You can't swing an axe. (yells) you can't even throw one of (Kool holds up a bola and a Viking grabs it and uses it to bring down a dragon) Arvid: Okay, fine, but this will throw it for me. (Arvid pats a wooden machine, which opens and shoots a bola randomly, hitting a Viking standing in the background.) Viking: Arggh!

Kool: See, now this right here is what I'm talking about!

Arvid: Mild calibration issue--

Kool: Don't you-- no-- Hiccup. If you ever want to get out there to FIGHT DRAGONS! You need to stop all... this.

Arvid: But, you just pointed to all of me!

Kool: Yes! That's it! Stop being all of you!

Arvid: Ohhhh...

Kool: Ohhhh, yes.

Arvid: You sir, are playing a dangerous game. Keeping this much, raw... Viking-ness... contained? THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES!

Kool: I'll take my chances. Sword. Sharpen. Now.

Arvid (v.o.): One day, I'll get out there. Because, killing a dragon is everything around here.

(The camera pans over various dragons as they are described. Nadders are shown attacking sheep, Gronckles are stealing racks of fish, and a Zippleback ignites a house and blows it up.)

Arvid (v.o.): A Nadder head is sure to get me at least noticed. Gronckles are tough. Taking down one of those would definitely get me a girlfriend or a boyfriend. A Zippleback? Exotic. Two heads, twice the status.

Catapult Operator: They found the sheep!

Odin: Concentrate fire over the lower bank!

Viking: Hurry up!

Catapult Operator: Fire!

Arvid(v.o.): And then, there's the Monstrous Nightmare. Only the best Vikings go after those. They have this nasty habit of setting themselves on fire. (A Monstrous Nightmare growls and alights itself as it climbs up the catapult) Odin: Reload! I'll take care of this. (Odin hits the Nightmare with his hammer, which takes a few hits before retreating) Arvid (v.o.): But the ultimate prize is the dragon no one has ever seen. We call it the--

Arvid (v.o.): That's Odin the Strong. Chief of the tribe. They say that when he was a baby, he popped a dragon's head clean off of its shoulders. (Odin throws a wooden cart at a dragon, knocking it out mid-air) Do I believe it? Yes, I do. Odin: What have we got? Starkard: Gronckles, Nadders, Zipplebacks. Oh, and Hoark saw a Monstrous Nightmare. Odin: Any Black Death's? Starkard: None so far. (Burning embers land on Odin's shoulder. He casually brushes it off.) Odin: Good. Viking: Hoist the torches! (Two enormous torches are raised and lit. The dragons swarm around them.) (Arvid runs into a blacksmith shop and puts on an apron) Kool: Ah! Nice of you to join the party! I thought you'd been carried off! Arvid: What, who me? Nah, come on! I'm waaaay too muscular for their taste. They wouldn't know what to do with all... (gestures to his skinny body) ...this. Kool: Well, they need toothpicks, don't they? Arvid (v.o.): The meat-head with attitude and interchangeable hands is Gobber. I've been his apprentice ever since I was little. Well... littler (scene cuts to Stoick on the watch-tower) Stoick: We move to the lower defenses. We'll counter-attack with the catapults. (A dragon swoops down and sets another house on fire.)

Arvid (v.o.): See? Old village, lots and lots of new houses.

Hoark: FIRE!

Stolker: Alright, let's go! (The Viking teens are seen carrying buckets of water as Arvid in the voiceover introduces them one by one) Arvid (v.o.): Oh, and that's Herm, Derek, the Twins, Triss and Tuss, and... (dreamily) Stolker. Oh, their job is so much cooler. (Slow motion shot of the teens walking away from an explosion) (Arvid watches out of the smithing window to get a better look. Kool lifts him up.) Hiccup: Oh, come on. Let me out, please? I need to make my mark!

Kool: Oh, you've made plenty of marks. All in the wrong places!

Arvid: Please, two minutes. I'll kill a dragon. My life will get infinitely better. I might even get a date.

Arvid had grown up in a village on a mid-size Island that has hunted dragons and Arvid's father, Odin is the chief and the strongest warrior that has been lived for the past 10 generations. Arvid knows that he should have slayed dragons just like everyone else but... When he shot down the ultimate prize that no one had ever seen nor had been able to survive... Arvid couldn't do it...He couldn't kill a dragon.
