[Scene cuts to a pan around the Dragon Training Arena]
Gobber: Welcome to Dragon Training!
Asher: No turning back.
Tuffnut: I hope I get some serious burns!
Ruffnut: I'm hoping for some mauling, like on my shoulder or lower back.
Asher: Yeah, it's only fun if you get a scar out of it.
Hiccup: [Sarcastically] Yeah, no kidding, right? Pain. Love it.
Tuffnut: Oh, great. Who let her in?
Gobber: Let's get started! The recruit who does best will win the honor of killing his first dragon in front of the entire village.
Hiccup: That's not nice, Ruffnut could win.
Snotlout: Uh Hiccup can't kill dragons, so, does that disqualify her or...?
Hiccup: Yeah does it? If it does I will leave right now.
Tuffnut: Can I transfer to the class with the cool Vikings?
Gobber: [to Hiccup] Don't worry. You're small and you're weak. That'll make you less of a target! They'll see you as sick or insane and go after the more Viking-like teens instead.
Hiccup: But I can't fight them.
Gobber (cont.): Behind these doors are just a few of the many species you will learn to fight! The Deadly Nadder!
Fishlegs: Speed: eight; Armor: sixteen.
Gobber: The Hideous Zippleback!
Fishlegs: Plus eleven stealth times two.
Gobber: The Monstrous Nightmare!
Fishlegs: Firepower: fifteen.
Gobber: The Terrible Terror!
Fishlegs: Attack: eight; Venom: twelve!
Gobber: CAN YOU STOP THAT?! And... the Gronckle!
Fishlegs: [whispering] Jaw strength: eight.
Snotlout: Whoa, whoa, wait! Aren't you gonna teach us first?!
Hiccup: It's Gobber him teaching is learning on the job. I still have a cut on my arm from when I was 6.
Gobber: Hiccup is correct about my style of teaching. [releases Gronckle, which promptly swallows rocks and starts blasting the teens]
Gobber (cont.): Today is about survival. If you get blasted... you're dead! Quick! What's the first thing you're going to need?
Hiccup: A doctor?!
Gobber: That’s for after the fight!
Fishlegs: Plus five speed?!
Gobber: What?! No!
Astrid: A shield!
Gobber: Shields! Go! Your most important piece of equipment is your shield! If you must make a choice between a sword or a shield, take the shield!
[All the recruits head for the shields]
Tuffnut: Get your hands off my shield!
Ruffnut: There's like a million shields!
Tuffnut: Take that one, it has a flower on it. Girls like flowers.
[Ruffnut takes the shield and slams it onto Tuffnut's head.]
Ruffnut: Oops, now this one has blood on it.
[The Gronckle flies towards the Twins and blasts their shield with a fireball, leaving them dazed on the ground.]
Gobber: Tuffnut, Ruffnut, you're out!
Ruffnut and Tuffnut: [Dazed] What?
Gobber: Those shields are good for another thing: noise! Make lots of it to throw off a dragon's aim!
[The remaining teens begin hitting their weapons against their shields, making the Gronckle shake its head, confused.]
Gobber (cont.): All dragons have a limited number of shots. How many does a Gronckle have?
Snotlout: Five?
Fishlegs: No, six!
Gobber: Correct, six! That's one for each of you!
[Fishlegs' shield gets blasted out of his hand. He runs away screaming.]
Gobber (cont.): Fishlegs, out. [to Hiccup hiding behind a plank] Hiccup, get in there!
Snotlout: [to Asher] So, yo thinking that we team up we can easily hurt Hiccup. I mean it looks like you could use work out!
[The Gronckle fires at Snotlout]
Gobber: Snotlout! You're done!
Hiccup: So, I guess it's just you and me, huh?
Astrid: Nope, just you. (runs away, leaving Hiccup)
Hiccup: But doesn't that mean-
[The Gronckle fires at them, but misses. Hiccup loses her shield and runs after it, the dragon hot on her heels]'
Gobber: One shot left! Hiccup!
[The Gronckle corners Hiccup, taking its aim. Gobber quickly tugs it away, causing it to misfire its last shot, and locks it up back in its cage]
Gobber (cont.): And that's six! Go back to bed, ya overgrown sausage! You'll get another chance, don't you worry. [to Hiccup] Remember: a dragon will always -- always -- go for the kill.
[Scene cuts to Hiccup trekking through the forest again]
Hiccup: No, your wrong. He didn't.
[Hiccup enters a cove, surveying its emptiness]
Hiccup (cont.): Well, this was stupid. It's probably gone by now. (She finds some shiny black dragon scales on the floor. She picks one up.) Or maybe not.
[The Night Fury swoops past her, an lands onto the ground, trying to settle down in the cove. Hiccup hides at the entrance and makes a sketch of it]
Hiccup (cont.): Why would you stay?
[As she makes a sketch, he notices drops her pencil, drawing the Night Fury's attention. It stares up at her in recognition.]
