CHAPTER 1: ARRIVAL
Toothless opened his eyes to find himself standing in the now familiar void that he alway's found himself in before and after every mission.
He didn't know how many missions he's done, or how many he has left. In the void, time is negative. Everything is the opposite of what he expects it to be.
He knew he had grown and that a pretty big amount of time had passed, but he didn't know exactly how much. He was now taller and his scales were now pure black instead of light blue.
Slowly a portal opens a few hundred feet in front him, the portal glows a brilliant red and the Red Death steps out from it. Her gray scales being lit up by the portal.
"Good news, Mr. Toothless, you only have one more mission. Once that mission is completed you will be returned to Berk. This mission will be a simple one as my employees have recognized...your complaints" The Red Death says and a portal starts forming behind Toothless.
"Well, give me my damn mission," Toothless says, he hopes that it wasn't one of those missions where he has to kill people. He hated himself for killing people for the Red Death. He just wished he could go home.
"Ahh, i was getting to that. I have noticed that you don't seem to know exactly how long it's been. Well, it has been nearly 5 years since you signed the contract" The Red Death reveals and Toothless steps back in shock, it had only felt like a few months, maybe a year or two at most...not five whole years.
"Now to talk about your mission. Your mission is to kill the one person who has managed to rally enough people to form a...army against me and my 'friends', you may know him. His name...is Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third" The Red Death says and Toothless takes two steps back in pure shock, his mind going num and his blood running cold.
"B-But, he's my best friend. I can't...i won't kill him" Toothless says and the Red Death smirks.
"Ah, but if you never complete the mission, your contract will never end. And i can keep you trapped in this void until you starve to death. Now, i will see you when the deed is done. Wake up, Toothless, wake up and smell the ashes" The Red Death says and pushes Toothless into the portal behind him, sending him back to Dragons Edge.
Toothless opened his eyes to find himself in a metal box with Death Song amber windows, Toothless then realized that the only exits were sealed and the box was MOVING.
He looks around to find a Monstrous Nightmare and Deadly Nadder in the box with him. He coughs loudly and the Monstrous Nightmare looks at him, curiously.
"I didn't see you get on at Defenders of the Wing Island," The Nightmare says and Toothless takes a moment to come up with the proper response.
"I, umm, i didn't exactly get on, i just sorta...appeared" Toothless explains and the Monstrous Nightmare laughs.
"Ah! Yeah, nice, sure" The Monstrous Nightmare says and Toothless looks out of the window to see that this metal box is flying over the water below.
"HOW IS THIS THING IN THE AIR!?" Toothless screechs and starts panicking, running around and trying to get out. The Monstrous Nightmare then pins him to the metal floor.
"Easy buddy! We don't need to cause a commotion! There are currently two big Sentinal dragons carrying this box from Defenders of the Wing Island to...Dragons Edge" The Monstrous Nightmare says and lets Toothless stand up, Toothless then realizes the Monstrous Nightmare said "Dragons Edge"
"Wait, Dragons Edge?" Toothless asks and the Monstrous Nightmare purrs with a nod.
"Yep! THE Dragons Edge, the second best place for dragons to live in the Archipelago, besides Berk of course. You're lucky if you get a spot on Dragons Edge, and it would take a miracle for anyone to get a spot on Berk, considering that it's overcrowded" The Monstrous Nightmare says and Toothless realizes just how much has changed since he left.
"Can we go to Berk, like, now?" Toothless asks and the Monstrous Nightmare laughs.
"No, you nut! I just said it would take a miracle to get a spot on Berk, let alone stay for more than 5 minutes. Plus, we're almost to Dragons Edge and cannot just change course for Berk, the two dragons up their need breaks. Plus, the trains only run once a week, and they only go to every island ONCE. They've already gone to Berk, so you'll have to wait until next week" The Monstrous Nightmare says and Toothless sighs, he goes to the back of the box and lays down
Toothless wakes up to a jolt as the box is set down, he then hears the doors open. He opens his eyes and watches as the Deadly Nadder leaves, and the Monstrous Nightmare turns to him.
"Well, here we are. End of the line" The Monstrous Nightmare says and leaves the box, Toothless eventually manages to shake himself awake and get out of the box.
When he got out, he swore for several moments that he was on a DIFFERENT Dragons Edge, but after noticing several familiar structures he knew he was on the same Dragons Edge that he and Hiccup had lived on. He didn't recognize it because of the tall huts, all the improved technology, and the new places.
He was shocked at how much Dragons Edge had changed, so he just started wandering. Walking around, trying to take in all the sights. He couldn't actually walk up to it all because there was a huge wall in between him and Dragons Edge.
He eventually found a bunch of dragons lined up at a gate, naturally, he was curious and got in line. The Monstrous Nightmare and Deadly Nadder from before were in front of him and eventually, a Zippleback got in line behind him.
He waited for around an hour, the line kept moving forwards and forwards, until he was next.
"NEXT!" Someone yells from inside a little box, Toothless stepping into the small hut as a boy wearing a vest and blue shirt looked him over.
"Ok, let's see, species is...Night Fury? That cannot be right, wait a minute..." The boy said and got a good, long look at Toothless' face.
"Holy shit, your...your Toothless Haddock," The boy says and Toothless laughs a bit.
"Nice to see Hiccup finally filled out those papers to make me a Haddock, took him forever" Toothless mumbles to himself and the boy laughs a bit.
"Well, that definitely sounds like Hiccup. Anyway's, you need to get to the teleportation labs so they can send you to Berk, they're located right next to the old clubhouse, you cannot miss them! The codeword is..." The boy leans down and whispers the codeword into Toothless' earflap, and Toothless nods. He then exits the hut and starts on his way to the labs, it was only when he was half-way there when he realized something, that boy was Gustav.
He didn't go back, but he pressed on. He eventually managed to get away from the streets full of dragons and make it onto the side streets, which lead to the older buildings.
He walked down the side streets for a minute or two until he came right up beside the clubhouse, it was boarded up and dust was gathering on the boards.
"Damn, so many memory's and they just...put them aside," Toothless says as a feeling of nostalgia came over him, he remembers taking short naps outside the clubhouse, and he remembers Hiccup laying on his back and reading a book.
Toothless walked for a few seconds until he ran into a huge hut, he then spotted a small door and he used his paw to knock on it.
"Hello? The password is lambda?" Toothless says and waits for what feels like forever. He then feels stupid and starts walking off, that's when the door opens and he turns back around to see Fishlegs.
"Toothless!? I didn't expect for at least another 6 months! I'll have to finish my calculations ahead of schedule. And I'll need to...well...oh fine, Toothless come in" Fishlegs says and gestures for Toothless to come inside, Toothless quickly enters to see multiple projects lying around, and a locked door.
"I honestly didn't know i would be back so earlier, myself" Toothless admits and Fishlegs laughs as he leads Toothless over to a crate.
"Well, isn't that life? Anyway's, i should get this armor on you before showing off something" Fishlegs says and then grabs a piece of metal from nearby, he uses it to smash the crate open and reveal a set of Gronckle Iron armor made specifically for a Night Fury.
"This...This is mine?" Toothless asks and Fishlegs nods, Fishlegs then starts attaching the armor around Toothless. He finishes with the helmet like device and he stands back with a smile.
"Ahh, i see the suit fits you like a saddle, at least, the saddle parts do. Anyway's, your armor is designed for maximum comfort and usability. The armor will allow you to fly on your own, while you don't even feel that it's on you" Fishlegs explains and Toothless walks around the lab, testing out the comfort of the armor. He could feel wool pads rubbing up against his scales, making him feel comfortable and causing him to purr in delight.
"You guys really accounted for everything with this armor," Toothless says while running around, making sure it feels good.
"Well, we worked on it for 3 years so i hope we did. Anyway's, I should show you the MRD" Fishlegs says and pulls a lever, causing a wall to slide out and reveal a huge room containing a platform.
Toothless and Fishlegs walk into the room and Fishlegs starts the machine up while talking.
"MRD stands for Matter Relay Device. Hiccup came up with the idea of using crystallized Skrill scales, while your equation on energy balance managed to make this all possible. And my idea of focusing Monstrous Nightmare flames at a certain point in the crystal while using your energy balance equations managed to make everything fit together, and thus the MRD device was born" Fishlegs says while powering up the device, the crystal at the top of it starts humming and shaking, but a few pieces of metal kept the crystal from falling out of the device.
"The MRD device allows instant transport from one point in the Archipelago to another point, the max distance for teleporting is 100 miles. This portal will lead to Berk, and on Berk, there are over 10 MRD devices all leading to different points in the Archipelago" Fishlegs explains and Toothless felt like a major leap had happened while he was away, but yet his equations made it all possible.
"So I see my energy manipulation equation and my energy balance equation came in handy" Toothless comments and Fishlegs nods happily, slowly, an orange portal forms on the MRD platform and Fishlegs watches it until it reaches full size.
"Ahh! Toothless, the portal is ready, you must enter it now. Oh, and Toothless, good to see you" Fishlegs says and Toothless smiles his famous gummy smile.
"You too" Toothless returns and steps into the portal, he was half-way through it when the crystal started melting from Changewing Acid.
"What!? Changewing Acid! Hiccup must have sent it on mistake! TOOTHLESS! GET OUT OF THE..." Fishlegs yells but suddenly a bright white light fills the room, and Toothless is gone.
Toothless opens his eyes to find the world gray, at first he thought the teleport had made him color blind, but he then saw the orange skies and he realized that the world around him was MEANT to be gray.
He then saw the Red Death standing a few hundred feet in front of him, she was talking to 2 similar sized Bewilderbeasts and a runt Red Death.
"Don't worry my friends, Toothless will kill Hiccup for us and then the Berkians will kill Toothless for killing Hiccup! It's a win-win, and we can go on with our plans" The Red Death says and her friends cough while pointing behind her. The Red Death turns around and spots Toothless, who has his middle claw up.
"WHY YOU SON OF A..." The Red Death starts but cannot finish as a bright light shines from where Toothless is, and then Toothless is gone.
Toothless opens his eyes to see the wooden walls of a hut, and some gray stone floors below him. He then realizes he's on Berk when the familiar smell of Berk hit him.
He then noticed Hiccup and Astrid walking into the room, chatting.
"Astrid, i think i sent Changewing Acid to Fishlegs instead of Monstrous Nightmare gel. We should send a terror and..." Hiccup says and they both noticed Toothless standing on the MRD platform.
"Oh, my gods...Toothless" Hiccup says while gasping, and Astrid covers her mouth in surprise. A bright light fills the room and Toothless is gone again, leaving Hiccup confused and Astrid shocked.
Toothless then opened his eyes to find himself underwater, he quickly shut his mouth and he starts to swim up, albeit very slowly.
That's when he looks down and sees a horrifying sight, a Scauldron was swimming up towards him fast, and it had its mouth open. Ready to swallow him whole and...digest him.
Toothless quickly screeched, letting oxygen out of his mouth in the process. He then started swimming up quickly, but he didn't make it to the surface before, with a comp, the Scauldron's jaws closed around him, and he screeched loudly.
Then a bright light filled the Scauldron's mouth, and Toothless was gone.
Toothless opened his eyes to find himself back on Dragons Edge, Fishlegs was running around panicking while some people and dragons were trying to disable the MRD with their bare hands.
"Where could he have gone!? He can't just disappear! Let's try...Bah! Toothless! We're trying to turn it off but it's just not working! I'm going to destroy the crystal! You will end up somewhere random! Just make it to Berk using the suit!" Fishlegs says and picks up a crossbow, he aims it at the crystal and pulls the trigger. The arrow flys through the air and hits the crystal, causing it to shatter into tiny bits.
