Chapter 4
Hiccup observed Jack carefully for the next week to see how he interacted with dragons and what he used his powers for. It turned out that Jack was quite the prankster and that he hated being ignored. All of Jack's pranks were harmless enough, but if his emotions were out of control then the pranks became extremely dangerous. One day while Jack was playing with a Gronkle, he got trapped by multiple Terrible Terrors and lost his temper. He caused a mini blizzard that made a good thirty-meter diameter circle of snow to surround Jack. Hiccup laughed because Jack started freaking out, but all he did was make Berk a little colder. That wasn't unusual at all.
Hiccup hoped he could help but... powers like Jack's were ones that needed time and patience. With the island being cut off from most of the world, the spirits left as quickly as they came. Hiccup being one of the older spirits has seen, met and said goodbye to hundreds of spirits. He even said goodbye to all dragons at one point. When Hiccup was getting into his older years, Toothless and all the dragons disappeared into the ocean with every bone and scale, but faith in them remained since Hiccup used his knowledge and strength to spread the belief and trust in dragons. When he passed on into the next world he became the spirit of dragons and gained his twenty-year-old look.
Jack was similar to all the other spirits that have come and gone to Berk. He only hoped that Jack would retain his memories. Maybe Hiccup should inform Jack of the Tooth Fairy's power., but that would have to wait until later. Hiccup was still deep in his thoughts when he suddenly was hit with something wet and cold. He was stunned momentarily before he felt suddenly joyful. Hiccup then grabbed a handful of snow started to throw snowballs at Jack and Toothless. He hadn't had this much trying since the guardians visited. And that was a long time ago.
Hiccup realized afterward that Jack's snowballs cause happiness and cheer. He then decided to explain this to Jack and have him test it on dragons and humans. Hiccup loved how Jack was always happy and cheerful and treated dragons like friends. While other spirits treated the dragons with respect, few befriended them.
Hiccup then realized as he thought about Jack that feelings were starting to develop, but for now, he chose to ignore it.
