Waking Hiccup up in the middle of the night was not a good idea. Many of the Adults of Berk had learned that long ago. The Chief actually feared his son when Hiccup was forced to wake up before sunrise. But sometimes it had to be done.

Chief Stoik the Vast had recieved word that Alvin the Treacherous was going to invade Berk to try and steal Toothless, and everyone agreed that Hiccup had to be told. The problem was that it was long past midnight, and Hiccup had been sleeping for quite some time now.

"Gobber, wake Hiccup up," Stoik told Gobber. Gobber replied, "I'm not waking him up! Make Mulch do it!"

"Mulch, wake Hiccup up," Stoik said. Mulch's eyes widened.

"Oh, no!" he cried. "I woke him up last time! Make Bucket do it!"

"Bucket, wake Hiccup up," Stoik said.

"I'm stupid, I'll admit it, but I'm not that stupid!" exclaimed Bucket. "Make Spitelout do it!"

And so it went on with Stoik telling everyone to wake Hiccup up, and everyone telling him to make someone else do it. Finally, Fishlegs was told to wake Hiccup up.

"Okay," said Fishlegs. He disappeared into Hiccup's house.

"Anyone wanna place bets on whether or not Fishlegs comes out alive?" asked Gobber. The adults began the betting.

Suddenly, everyone heard an enraged bellow, almost immediately followed by a frightened scream. Fishlegs raced out of the house, screaming his head off. Hiccup was following closely behind him, waving a hammer around.

"Odin, save us all!" cried the Vikings as they scattered.

Suddenly Toothless charged out of the house and tackled Hiccup. They wrestled for several seconds, until Hiccup realized who he was fighting.

"T-toothless?" Hiccup said confused. It was then that his somehow enhanced strength gave out, and he dropped the hammer with a surprised, "Oof!"

"Before you hurt me, Chief Stoik told me to wake you up!" cried Fishlegs. Hiccup muttered, "Toothless is the only one who can wake me up without me trying to kill him."

"Maybe I should have asked Toothless to wake you up," Stoik said thoughtfully.

"Why do you want me up, Dad?" asked Hiccup as Toothless got off of him and let him stand. Stoik replied, "Alvin the Treacherous is coming to invade Berk so he can steal Toothless."

"We have to stop him!" cried Hiccup, suddenly wide awake.

"And we will," agreed Stoik. "And here's how..."
