Toothless grumbled and got up to whack Hiccup with his tail. His idiot of a human had tried his 'wings' during a dragon race, at had gone wrong, obviously, like every other time. Distantly he could hear the cheering of Vikings and dragons as Astrid slammed the black sheep into her net, taking the game. Hiccup sat up a few steps away brushing the leaves and twigs off himself, "woohoo am I right but?" Hiccup asked standing up and shaking some forest brush off his head, Toothless was getting ready to smack Hiccup down again when a distant roar echoed through the trees...

(Hiccup pov) Hiccup shook his head to get the grass and leaves and dirt out of his hair.

It was a little smaller than Toothless and has a single ridge down it's back and small fins on the back of it's legs instead of spines like Toothless. But it's face was contorted in a snarl, it's head tilted to the sky. That's when Hiccup saw what the dragon was standing on, flattened and scorched ground with spiraling waves.
