Hiccup woke up early to the loud yells of Snotlout, the boy was screaming while at the same time banging his beefy fist on the elders door "Snotlout, what are you yelling about?" Demands the brunette as he opened the door.

There stood Snotlout, his face grimaced in pain, a purple terrible terror clutched deep into his left ear "I've got a painful message for you!" The black haired male hands a rolled up letter towards Hiccup, who takes it immediately.

Hiccup unrolls the parchment and begins to read, by now all the teens have been awakened and are crowded around the two cousins "This isn't good."

Astrid rubs bits of sleep from her eyes before making her way next to Hiccup "What does it say?"

Hiccup takes a deep breath as he begins to read the message aloud "Hiccup, you're required to be at Berk immediately, the others are free to watch over the edge, I'll be waiting. Stoick the Vast."

"Wow, this could be really bad!" Expresses Fishlegs

Snotlout finally pulls the dragon off his face, small bites of skin still visible in the terrors teeth "So you're needed back at Berk, big deal! At least now we'll get a vacation."

The twins head butt at the thought "Yeah, we work way too much."

Hiccup growls before dropping the letter to the ground, his father had demanded he come home ... But why? "Well, looks like I'm needed back at Berk, Snotlout, you and the twins guard the edge, Astrid and Fishlegs, you're coming with me."

Snotlouts eyes widen in glee, he hurriedly pushes Hiccup onto Toothless "Can't keep the chief waiting! See you whenever, no need to rush back!"

Hiccup sighs, maybe leaving those three alone wasn't the best idea, but he didn't know what his dad wanted "Protect the edge, keep the dragons at their posts and don't die."

With that Hiccup took to the air, followed closely behind by Astrid and Fishlegs. The trio made their way to Berk in record time, Hiccup going unusually faster than his friends.

The teen spotted his father waiting just outside their home, a stern and worried look across his face "Dad, what's the trouble?" Questions Hiccup as he lands, jumping from his saddle.

"Hiccup, are you familiar with the Chiefs challenge?" Asks Stoick, of course he already knew the answer, he'd taught his son all about chiefly duties.

Hiccup nods and his friends finally land next to him, Fishlegs and Meatlug panting and Astrid and Stormfly a bit winded from the journey.

Stoick glares at the two, Hiccup had been told to leave them at the edge, things just got a whole lot harder "I see you disobeyed me and brought your friends along."

Hiccup ignores his father's obvious disapproval; he needed to get back to the topic at hand "Dad, why did you ask if I knew of the Chiefs Challenge?"

Astrid and Fishlegs look to one another for guidance, both equally like lost "The Chiefs Challenge?"

"When a chief is challenged by another chief, it's called a Chiefs Challenge, the challenger decides the stakes and exactly what the fight will be." Answers Stoick, upon sight of his son's confused eyes he continues "This particular stake is more of a prize."

Hiccup gasps "Dad, please don't tell me you bet the Island!" Stoick shakes his head no, his eyes never leaving the ground "The dragons?" another shake "Your position as Chief?" still acknowledged with a no "Then what is the so called prize?"

Now Stoick's eyes rise to Hiccup's, his hands fiddling with his belt "The most important treasure I have."

The three teens stare, each attempting to decipher what was Stoick's most valuable treasure ... Suddenly Astrid launches forward, realizing there was only thing this prize could be "You didn't ... Tell me you didn't bet what I think you did!"

Stoick freezes like a deer in headlights, Astrid had figured it out ... But not Hiccup, his son was still completely oblivious.

Hiccup's eyes roam from girl to man, he hadn't a clue what was going on "Dad, what did you bet?" The boy is now looking directly at his father.

Stoick takes a deep breathe, all hell was about to break loose, he was about to do something unforgivable "I bet my greatest treasure, my one and only son ... I bet you, Hiccup."

So there's the first chapter of my own season finale for Race to the Edge. What do you all think? I'd love to hear everyone's input and ideas :)
