The Spirit Portal

Six months had gone by, six very long, grueling and heartbreaking months for Hiccup, Boden, and Una since their father's passing and them taking up leadership of Berk.

And in that half years of time, they'd grown up a lot as well as accomplished a lot as had their dragons as the new leaders of dragonkind.

The Haddock siblings had been pouring all their time and effort with their friends and their own adopted younger siblings to truly revolutionizes Berk and transform it along it people it a much more advanced society.

So the last six months had been busy with using their incredible intelligence, creative minds, and special gifts along with their friends to begin the blueprints that would one day flourish and bring into fruition their dreams of fruition a true Golden Age and utopia for not just Berk but all in the Dragon Harmony Alliance.

Right now Hiccup was currently with Astrid and her adopted younger sister Bloodfire who was overseeing one of the projects. A fully functional Dragon Air Mail postal system for the whole Archipelago.

They'd finally finished tearing down the remains of Mildew old home and now had the skeleton structure for the post office being built as well nearby the home where the Terrors and Glistening Mistbreaths would live when not on duty.

"Astrid? How are thing coming along?" asked Hiccup as he flew in on Toothless who was a little agitated. "Chill out, Toothless. We won't take too long. You'll get back to Moon Shadow and your kids by snack time, don't worry, buddy."

Toothless gave him a look but he just said, "Okay, but you know she can't handle them all without me there."

"I know, Buddy. But we just got to do a few quick checks and then you can get back to your wife and kids, okay?"

"Alright."

"I still can't believe even six months later that one all our dragons are parents or the fact they can talk now!" called out Astrid as she raced up to her love to embrace him.

Ever since the events of six months ago involving both the murder of Stoick the Vast and defeating Drago Bludvist and the death of the previous King of Dragons White Kings two miracles had happened.

All the Dragon Riders dragons had become proud parents of many children and the people of Berk had reached the point of enlightenment and with help of the Dragon Soul Essence now merged with Berk itself could understand the Dragons when they spoke.

So now all the Dragon spoke like humans though the Vikings of Berk were still adjusting to the once silent fire-breathing dragons that they only made peace with five years ago could actually hold an intelligent conversation now.

"It's alright, if your still getting use to us talking, Astrid. But we are still just one family. And family is the most important thing here on Berk," Stormfly replied with a purr as she cuddled close to Astrid.

"I know, girl, I know. It's still gonna take a little time. Just as it's taking you time to learn to be a mother and our siblings learning to become riders to your children," as her sky blue eyes gazed at her adopted ten-year-old sister who was looking over the blueprints for the house they're to build and Stormfly's eldest daughter was sleeping at her side.

"Bloodfire?" Astrid called to her sister.

"Hmm? Yes, big sister?" looking up from the blueprints.

"Are you sure you and Hellfire are alright? That I can't get you something to eat or drink? We're going to be working out here a long time. And I hate to think what your mother Bloodthorn do to me if I didn't take care of you. I mean I still have to keep the Vow of Siblinghood."

"Don't worry, big sis, my mom packed plenty of treats for us and my dad's newest fruits and vegetables were blended together for our drinks. He wants us to be the taste tester for how this new drink taste. He really wants our full opinion on it."

"Well, Bloodfire, the one thing my family always admire about your parents is how they push the boundaries and think for themselves. And not afraid about what people think of them."

"Well, I know my mom has been part of your mom Brunch Club for years. She's the best baker on Berk and is always attempting to bake in new and inventive ways and put the strangest concoctions together. Just mix it up and see how it comes out. And my dad really does great thinking when it comes to his approach to farming."

"Well, it is really an innovate way of thinking what your father does sis. Using different soils, water, compost, cross-breeding plants, trying to control how much sun and all that. It's really a complex and highly advances thinking for what we normally do." Astrid told her proudly.

"And it has yield plenty of great results. As we've gotten a great deal of better fruits and vegetables for nearly a nearly 20 years now. It's truly amazing what your parents have done to improve the quality of food here on Berk." Hiccup praised the little girl who was his sister best girlfriend.

Bloodfire blushed as bright as her name and smiled proudly. "Thank you. I and Brimstone are quite proud of our parents. But aside from my parents you and Toothless did come here with a purpose, correct?"

"Oh yes, I was wondering how is the future Berk Post Office coming along?"

"Well, it took two months to clear away all that was left behind by that foul Mildew, which included the house and rotten cabbage field," Astrid started to report.

"But we've finally had them both taken care of and finally have commenced getting the post office structure started. But it's only the framework. We're waiting for Eret to get here with the rest of the construction crew members to help.

According to you three if we want to improve the future buildings you want to build they should have a mix of stone, metal and Death Song amber securing the foundation both from below and top level."

"We also need to make sure it can be connected to both Boden's Dragon Life-force System and Una's Dragon Voice Box. So it can be powered by Boden's creative battery as he calls it.

I'm still blown away how your younger brother figured out how to harness so many natural elements and then make them all converge together and work seamlessly to power Berk.

Or how Una cleverly thought to bury metal pipes and uses ocarinas to play a melody that opens a certain vales passage to speak to one another."

"Yes, my younger siblings and I are quite smart, but we want to expand and take it a step further.

We're hoping to create an invention that will be able to write letters and other documents for us. We've it in the works along with a whole backlog of other inventions mind you."

"Well, that's okay, Hiccup. Before we can go any further with this project we need the Anquetils to banish any remaining evil. So Skullette and Firefang need come and chase all the evil away and then we can get started."

"So you'll need like another day or two before you can actually get started on really building the post office or habitat?"

"Yes."

"Okay, Astrid well you four just make sure all the dangers are cleared before Skullette and her sister get here to do their bit and then I'll make sure Eret and his crew get her to get started on this site."

"Alright, my love."

"What should I do?"

"Bloodfire you just help your big sister in any way possible and continue to bond with Hellfire."

"Okay."

"Hiccup, before you go can you and your siblings make sure to check in on the rest of our families?"

"That was the idea, Astrid."

"Yes, it's my duty as King to check on every dragon on Berk."

"And my duty as Chief as well. But we've got three of us so it won't be that hard to cover more ground," he kissed Astrid goodbye and he and Toothless flew away.

"Where next, buddy?"

"You've to oversee the other two constructions projects for the laundry/clothing hall and bakery is coming. Your mother said she be waiting with Ewe and Bloodthorn to help with this inspection. As she nominated them to be in charge of each when they're completed."

"Okay, put on some speed and let's get going, buddy! The sooner we get this done faster we get back to your ten bundles of joy!"

Boden was currently overseeing an important project of his own with Stardust who with him and he was getting a headache with who he was working with.

"Come on, people! We're trying to move past using sundials here! I made the designs as simple as possible and Gobber didn't even goof up the gears! I made the hands and face of it myself!" he complained as he looked over the dunderheads trying to build his clock tower.

"What is so wrong with sticking with a sundial," muttered Mulch as he and Bucket were trying to follow the simplified diagram.

Boden ran his left hand down his face and muttered. "Odin please save me from the incredibly stupid."

"We are trying to move forward. We can't live forever in the past! We need forward thinking. Looking to the future and that means new ideas and new things. And a sundial really isn't that accurate on time.

Now while my siblings and I were on Dragon Edge we found out by accident how to truly tell time. And that's why we are attempting to build a clock here on Berk. It will be highly useful, trust me."

"Yes, if we knew what time it was we could make proper routines, schedules and have some order over chaos. And better able to track the days of the year as well." Stardust pointed out the sensibility of the project.

"But this whole dang contraption is too darn hard to figure out! It's impossible!" the two men whined.

"Oh, big brothers why do you always give up so easily? And why is it you never really use those things in your skulls called your brains?" called out two young ladies voices.

"Romi! Remi! Thank Thor! My prayers have been answered!" cried Boden as Mulch and Bucket's younger sisters showed up. These two young ladies could do literally almost anything.

"What do you think you're doing you two bucket-heads?" Romi scolded her brother Mulch and Remi looked at Bucket in pitying way.

"Yeah, you two can't even find your way out of a tin pail and you're expecting to put together Boden's clock tower? Really we'll all be sent to Helheim! You two get going and we'll finish putting this together before you blow us up."

They looked at Boden flying outside in an apologetic way. "Sorry, we're late Boden. We had to drop of Creel and Gala to be with their older brother and sister the Twins."

"What are the Twins up to? I'm afraid to ask."

"Don't worry Loki's apprentices aren't up to any mischief making today. They really do act more mature when taking care of their sister and they are also with Barf and Belch's daughter Chaos and Havoc." Romi assured him with a smile.

"So what are they up too?" he repeated for the second time.

"The four of them are currently with Fishlegs and his siblings busy gathering up supplies for both the Dragon Nursery and the necessary building material for the future building you and your siblings wish to build," Remi explained kindly to the young 15 years old who was second in command of Berk.

"Well, at least they are doing something productive that's not destructive. Let's hope Snotlout not doing anything foolish then."

Una was busy with Snotlout who had his two siblings Brimstone and Velika with him and he was busy inspecting all of Berk automated defense systems and seeing what he could upgrade.

"Are you sure you're qualified for this, Snotlout?" she asked him yet again."

"Look I don't care if your six feet tall and now part of being in charge of Berk, your still only ten years old, Una! I'm still ten years older then you and I can do this job of checking and improving our defenses!

I was a warrior long before you're born!" he snapped back at her.

The blond and lilac hair young girl didn't blink or back down. Instead, she stood her ground and gave him a glare with her bright blue eyes. "I'm sorry if my questions annoy you, Snotlout, but I am as you pointed out now one of the three people in charge of Berk!

And my brothers and I have to be through with that job! It's an awesome responsibility and we've to take it seriously or someone could die!"

"Calm down, Una! We're here to make sure our brother doesn't make any mistakes and to help him with the upgrades that you all requests," Brimstone tried to soothe her.

"Yes, we've them all right here in this notebook. See! All them fully detailed with easy to follow instructions. It won't be hard for us to improve upon them." Velika assured her.

"I hope not. I mean we're a little further behind then my BBBFF and I would like. We haven't even got started in attempting to create the New Islands or broke ground for the school we wish to build for the future generations of children of Berk."

"I'm sure given more time all your wonderful and enchanting ideas will come true. Just give it more then time then six months not everything has to have a deadline," Velika told her.

"She's right you know, Una. It's like your brothers and you been so busy determined to get all you planned done as quickly as possible and kept yourselves as busy as possible. Why?" Nightrainbow asked her.

"Nightrainbow hush!"

"Una are you trying to avoiding grieving for your father?" Brimstone inquired as he hugged Ash tightly to his chest. The little runt of a Nightmare was snoozing happily in his new best friends arms.

"What?! That's ridicules!"

"I don't think it is. It's like ever since Drago attack us and you and your older brothers became leaders you've thrown yourselves into working and not taking a moment's break." Velika agreed as she hugged Ash's sister and Hookfang's daughter Scorchclaw.

"You're both are wrong! I won't hear another word of nonsense. Just make sure you complete the job of fixing and upgrading the defense on time! I'm going to the Nursery! Goodbye!" as she flew away.

"Who does she think she kidding? Those three aren't fooling anyone!" Snotlout muttered under his breath.

When Una got to the Nursery she was in a bad mood. Shaken by what Snotlout and his siblings had said. Still trying not show it she then went down to see Skullette and Firefang and all the dragon families.

She was surprised to run into Breezy and her two children Birger and Ria when she got down there. Breezy was the greatest artist Berk had ever seen even better than Bucket though she was terribly disorganized and her son had to usually clean up after her.

Ria had had a klepto habit but had finally broken it and still loved the color red. She was smart, beautiful and charming. She also had clearly inherited her mother's talent in art and all its forms.

"Hello, Mrs. Milun, what brings you three down here?" she asked politely as she approached the black curly haired woman.

"Oh, Una! How delightfully to see you! Well I was dropping off some safe paintings I made to brighten up the Nursery and Birger and Ria made some new toys for all the new hatchlings." her mother friend replied in a cheery voice.

"Yes, now that they're in wooden frames behind this glass that was discovered by accident when we're trying to make Gronckle Iron it is safer to hang them around the Nursery," Skullette expressed as she came out to collect them.

Skullette "The Firetamer" Anquetil was the Head of the Berk Dragon Nursery. She was also the only person on Berk or Una had ever seen with two different colored eyes. One was blue the other green.

Her younger cousin/sister Firefang "the Beautiful" Anquetil was the Head of Bookkeeping on Berk as she had the best handwriting. She was also a very gifted poet even though that was a secret.

Skullette and Firefang were very close family friends of Una's family and always been like sisters to Hiccup, Boden, and Una. They really understood each other for many reasons.

The feelings of being different, secretly having mental illness as well as secretly having strange special gifts. All of the Anquetils had spiritual gifts and well Hiccup, Boden and Una had their own special powers that they'd to keep secret for years.

And this Berk Dragon Nursery has originally been the Underground Dragon Sanctuary first before they'd turned into a Nursery so the sisters as that what they saw themselves has been with them since the beginning.

"How goes keeping the Dragon Family Tree Book? And the Night Fury book?"

"Well, the family tree book is coming along nicely and everything we're learning about Night Furies is fascinating and truly wonderful to learn something new each day," Firefang replied.

"Are you sure Moon Shadow doesn't mind being still kept in such a high-security room?"

"Well, she hasn't complained since she gained the power of speech. And none of the ten babies made a fuss. And their six months old now. Still, we must do all we can to protect them as we still don't know what killed all the rest of the species in the first place." Skullette pointed out.

"Unless you and your brothers have had any hints in the past few months?" Firefang asked hopefully and Una shook her head.

"Sorry, our powers haven't been nearly as active since the battle. Too much stress and work for us to do to really focus on them. So we still don't know anything more about Toothless or Moon Shadow's past or even Nightrainbow or Stardust."

"That's a shame. Really it's the biggest mystery out there and one we all want the answers too."

"Well, perhaps Azure has some answers. She's also the last of her kind. The Last Blue Spiritwing and she's part mystical and served White King. She had us transfer the Dragon Soul Essence to Berk before White King's next was destroyed."

"Have you asked her?"

Shaking her head again. "There's been no time and she's been too busy bonding with Lily as well as falling deeper in love with Cloudjumper. We wanted her to be happy and didn't feel right to ask her questions when she was just getting settled."

"Well, if you seek the answers she seems most logical to get them."

"Yes, well I must get home. See you later. Night."

"Night."

That night the Humans of the Haddock family where at home eating dinner. Their dragons were at the Nursery with all the babies and attending to them.

"Is something the matter, my children?" Valka asked her three children as she served them some oatmeal for dinner.

She hoped they cry or just talk about their father. They hadn't really talked about their father in six months and she felt like everyone else that they're trying to be too strong and need to talk about it.

Even if his spirit had secretly visited them with the help of their family secret guardian Valkyrie it didn't change the fact they still were grieving and needed to talk about that day.

"Mommy, do you ever wonder about the unknown?" Una asked as she stirred her oatmeal absentmindedly.

"There is an unknown to each day. But what unknown are you speaking about, my daughter?"

"Well, it's been at the back of our mind for six months but we've been so busy and everything," Hiccup started to say and his mom cut him off.

"Hiccup, you three have given yourselves more work than necessary. Piling projects upon projects and trying to come up with up so many ideas and attempting to get them all done at once even though you know its impossible.

It's like your scared what will happen if you take a second to stand still and breath. It's alright to stand still. Silence is alright. It's alright to relax. It's okay to do nothing. It's alright to feel something."

"WE ARE FINE MOM! Great Gods! Why does everyone have to keep asking if we're doing alright?!" Boden snapped loudly slamming his fist on the table causing the silverware to jump.

"Okay, you're fine," she said even though she was thinking, "So you say." but out loud she said, "So what is really on your minds?"

"We feel it's time we finally got some answers to some lifelong unknown questions. Like what is really going on with that mysterious cavern where we found those flowers that changed my hair forever!" Una shouted.

"What?"

"Mom, something very freaky is going on there. Azure said she could feel energy or something and told us that where we had to merge the Dragon Soul Essence. There something there that's been calling to us our whole lives." Hiccup explained to her.

"There something there, something powerful and we must figure out what secrets lie there and solve the mystery of what's really going on in that cavern!" Boden stood up and looked at his mother.

"We've felt something similar when we're on Dragon Edge, Moon Shadow's Island and at White King's Den. All those locations had something there and it was calling to us and it somehow boosted our powers.

Something significant happened in our lives at each location and at each location, our powers grew as did we in some manner. Please, there is something in that cavern right here on Berk and it's a mystery we have to solve!" Hiccup pleaded with his mother trying to get her to understand their need to figure this out.

"I understand what you're saying and the need to solve yet another mystery. But just remember the truth must be approached with great caution and respect. So if you feel like you must ask Azure then go to her tomorrow and ask her.

But again don't do something so foolish you'll get killed!"

The next day the three Haddock siblings headed to Gothi's home where she lived with her niece Lily and her great-nephews Lily's son Lanon and Larkin.

They knew Lily's sons who were the adopted brothers of Fishlegs and Astrid respectfully be out with them today doing whatever project their adopted older siblings needed help with. Along with learning to care for their new dragons.

Lily who was part of their mother's circle of friends was at the moment organizing herbs as her aunt who'd raised her after her mother had become widowed looked up from her work.

"Hiccup? Boden? Una? What brings you to my home? Do you need my aunt's help? Because she's busy. Too many customers today. Some days are, to be honest, are theme days and today theme is "Cure my boils and warts" she shivered in repulsion.

"No, we didn't come here to see your aunt. We came to see Azure. Is she home?"

"You mean my dragon? Um, she should be back in half an hour. She and your mother's dragon went for a little romantic getaway last night. To be honest they've been doing that a lot. I think they're trying to conceive an egg."

"Do you think it's possible for two different species to breed?" Una asked curiously and Lily shrugged. "No-one knows that Una. I've done my best to use plants to concoct a brew that supposes to promote fertile to help."

"Is that what you were up too right now?" Boden asked uncomfortably.

"Yes, and for the record every one of you that includes you, Hiccup are too young to think about having kids. Your still kids yourself.

I mean your only 20, 15 and 10! You have got a LOT more maturing to do before you think about that! And I seriously mean it for you too Hiccup! 20 is an adult age but age doesn't make you an adult or mean you're ready to be a parent.

So wait till your truly ready. In all ways. Physically, mentally and emotionally. That's my advice and please take it to heart!"

After promising they would all they could do was wait patiently for the dragons to return. When you're sitting still and doing nothing when you've been doing everything possible to keep busy it's not a good feeling.

They're so twitchy and nervous. It was almost like going through a withdraw as they struggled to stay still. Really they looked like three addicts going through withdraw just trying to sit still and wait for Azure and Cloudjumper to return.

Finally, they saw their mother's four-winged dragon return and with him was a beautiful azure dragon with feathery wings.

Azurewings or Azure for short was a beautiful and magnificent sight to behold. Azure blue, with horns of silver like a crown and an elegance in both form and movement and feathers, were both the softest thing you ever felt and yet were razor sharp too. Her eyes were a beautiful sea green full of motherly love, wisdom, and compassion.

"Are you going to be alright, my beloved?" inquired Cloudjumper as he rubbed his head against hers one final time.

"I'll be fine, my love. We shall know in a few days time if this time was successful or not. Go home to Valka. She must have pined terribly for you. See you soon, my love."

With a dignified bow, he took to the sky and left. Azure then turned to greet her Rider and notice the Haddocks. "Hello, my children what brings you here?"

Azure was very protective of Hiccup, Boden, and Una to the point of seeing them as her own.

"Azure, we've come seeking your guidance," Hiccup started to say and she held up one claw.

"Don't need to say more, Hiccup, I already know what this is about. I've known for a long time you'd be coming to seek the answers to the mystery of that cavern since we first went there."

"You did?!" they all exclaimed and she nodded.

"Of course, I did. I already know you three are very sensitive the energies of all the Nine Realms, but you also can see beyond that and understand there is more to the world than just the known realms such as Asgard, Alfheim, Utgard or Earth for example.

I'm quite confident if you understood there much more to this world then what you've been brought up with just the Cosmic Tree that it's far more complex you understand that as well."

"You mean there more than Nine Realms?" Una asked and the azure blue dragon nodded.

"Since time began we are talking about much more than the Nine Realms. And as you've already proven you three are very extraordinary souls and you have one way or another caused such an impact that its rippled to all the Known Realms.

I've no doubt very soon you'll be told the next step in your destiny for there is still much for you to see, hear and to not just here in this world, but throughout time and space.

But to do that first you must open your minds and see beyond the four walls you've been raised in and understand there more than just Nine Realms. There is actually an infinite number of worlds and realities another term you might use for realities.

For just how one choice has many different outcomes oneself can have a thousand different selves existing in a thousand different forms."

"So does that Cave has something to do with that? And we can feel it all because of our strange gifts?" asked Hiccup to Azure who cocked her head to the side as ruffled her feathers.

"It's more than your gifts which play a small part. It's more because of your hearts and souls. Some people are just born more sensitiveness and born with the natural ability to see with a sight beyond sight.

You three have been blessed in many ways for many reasons, many which have yet to be fully explained but before your lives come to the close I'm sure you'll all reveal to the entire worlds why you're born with such blessing."

"But we've got to go to that Cave an unravel that mystery there! It's calling to us!" Boden insisted.

"I know you do. But again tread lightly and with caution. It is not without danger what you seek to find. You may just find a way accidentally to leave this world behind and you can't begin a journey you don't intend to finish."

"We're brave, strong in many ways and got enough brains to solve any problem! We can handle anything." Hiccup said stubbornly.

"What you have faced so far is a realm you know and understand the world and its people. With rules and limits within your comprehending. I'm scared what you might accidentally do but there no holding you back. So I'll take you back to the cave so you might figure it out.

But again remember thy warnings and also remember you might not have a way home if you one way or another become lost. Climb on," as she lowered herself and flew swiftly to the cave.

She deposited them at the entrance and bowed. "I'll leave you here. Somethings can't be taught but only learned through experience. I'll be back in a few hours with your mother.

Don't do anything too foolish!" and with that, she took to the air and left the three siblings alone.

"Well, we came this far. Let's go see if we can figure out this mystery. I mean if we don't we won't be able to rest at all till we do," Hiccup said as he held his hand out to his brother who took it and their sister took his hand and taking a deep breath they walked into the cave.

There were fantastic runes craved into the eerie shimmering jade green stone walls of the cavern. Near a large rock in the center was a small pool of fresh water adjacent to the glowing crystals.

The cavern itself was still eerie in addition to strongly spine-chilling. Nevertheless, it did have a few warm touches to it, which seemed to reduce the amount of disturbing atmosphere to it.

The crystals around them illuminated them with an array of multi-hued colors. It's hard to feel scared when the colors of the Northern Lights warmed the cockles of their hearts.

The last thing that made the cavern more bearable was the strange melody from the echoes. Apparently, this cavern went on for a very long way. And all the sounds of the whole island made for remarkable music.

They found themselves drawn to the mound where the lilacs that had changed Una's hair forever had been found.

At first, they'd they might have been wrong. But then something extraordinary happened.

Their own energy and the energy in this strange place began to pulsate madly. It seemed to grow stronger and more intense as they came to the center of the cavern. It was the brightest on the stone mound.

"I think we've found something, guys! Whatever drawing us here is under this rock! We need to get the mound out of the ground! So come on! On three! One, two three! And lift!" commanded Una to her brothers.

It took all the strength they had inherited from their late father but they did manage to move the rock finally away and gasp at what they saw when they moved it away.

It was a hidden staircase. It made them pause and think for a moment. Why was there a hidden staircase in a very hard to find cavern deep in the woods on an island in the middle of nowhere?

Pushing aside their question and letting their curiosity rule they took a collective deep breath and began to descend the down the staircase. The siblings traveled for ten minutes till the reached a hidden chamber.

What they saw when they reached the bottom really surprised them. Standing in the far end of the chamber was a stone archway with a pale purple tattered veil blowing in a nonexistent wind.

"What is this? What is this archway? And how can this veil be blowing? There no wind down here?" inquired Boden in surprise and his brother shook his head and looked at Una who had a strange look at her face.

"Can't you hear them?" she asked in a small voice.

"Hear what?" her brothers asked her and she replied "I hear voices. And I'm not crazy. Look, I know our powers haven't been very active, not since...not since Daddy died."

Both her brothers hung their heads shamefully. It was true they hadn't really told anyone not even their mother but their powers hadn't really been functioning at all. It was like their refusal to truly grieve for their father had sapped them of their powers.

They had been grieving during the funeral yes. But then had had a battle and saved Berk and had a week to clean up and saw his spirit say goodbye to them. However, since that moment they had not genuinely gone through and through with the five stages of grief.

It might have been a mistake on their Guardian Valkyrie Kara's part for Stoick to say his goodbye and that final I love you. But in actuality Hiccup, Boden and Una truly had not in the six months of their father's passing under no circumstance in reality dealt with their father's death or permitted themselves to grieve for him.

Furthermore, if they couldn't grieve for him it was extremely likely they'd never get their powers fully restored to them. For they'd be forever and a day would be obstructed by their grief that they're adamantly refusing to feel.

Still, all of them took a few minutes to try and feel and their powers returned slightly. Hiccup was able to pick traces of golden memories, Boden could feel a mixture of emotions and Una could still hear whispering.

Almost in sleepwalker fashion they just let their powers take them around the room as they began to try and decipher the strange runes and their powers picked up more as they slowly began to open their hearts more.

All the same, the memories, feelings, and voices didn't add up as it was such a jumble and it all seemed to be coming from immensely different sources and none of them from the same time period either.

Finally, they just sat down before the veil to write down and draw pictures to represent what they had come concluded what they had all come to do.

"I've seen so many flashes of memories. Some feel almost human and others are not human. Some feel from eons ago and yet others seem to come from events yet to come. And in the end, these symbols on the wall seem to speak the most to me," Hiccup told his younger siblings as drew on his half of the paper.

Of course, his imagery made no sense to them and again it was written in a language they couldn't read.

"This is what I'm able to pick up with my emphatic powers. The one thing they've in common with you Hiccup it is like it is across space and time. And again these words keep popping up in my mind, though I've no rhyme or reason as too why." as he pushed his paper forward.

"These are the events I saw but I can't tell what's past or future. I wrote down what I think the voices I'm hearing are saying but I can't make it out clearly and the objects I'm seeing. And here are the symbols in this room standing out to me," Una pushed her paper forward.

For a few moments as they sat before the strange veil and looked at what they drew. The strange letting and images the drew almost seemed to be seemed to be telling a story or formed may be an insignia. It only hit Hiccup a fraction of a second later.

"Hey! Did either of you two realize that the way we drew these images or wrote the words down it looks like how Toothless's symbol is drawn?"

"Now that you point that, bro, your right! Our words from the outline of the Night Fury and our pictures fill in coloring him!" Boden exclaimed in shock.

"But look there is a little writing beneath Toothless's like some kind of extra message. It's like this is Toothless's chief seal and that be his personal motto or something!" Una exclaimed as well pointing to a little writing she had done below Toothless.

"Too bad we can't read any of it! Gods! I wish I knew what this said!" Hiccup raged and then suddenly the writing glowed and changed into something they could read.

And even though they're scared all of them leaned forward transfixed on the image and read carefully.

"In the name of our frozen father White King and your beloved wife our mother Silver Queen born from First Fire and Holy Ice we worship you forevermore as you guide and bless all your children.

May the wisdom of the Night Furies guide us forever in your place now. May we prosper and thrive!

Long live Chosen Ones! Long Live the Night! Long Live King! Long Live the Queen!

Bless us, Father of Ice, Mother of Fire and may your chosen successors carry your legacy forevermore.

Draco Beings forever united in fire and soul! Wing or hand we are the same!"

"What does that all mean?" they wondered aloud. "What is a Draco Being?" asked Hiccup.

"I don't know? What does it mean Father of Ice and Mother of Fire?"

"What king and queen are they talking about? Why did this suddenly change for us to read? Something wants us to read this? Nothing ever happened to us without reason!"

Suddenly paper glowed as did the whole room and they felt they're being sucked into towards the archway and as if a giant straw was being used the three of them were sucked right out of the room and through the stone archway and screaming.

It was the oddest sensations as the zoomed faster than the speed of light screaming the whole way till they're forcefully slammed into the ground somewhere. It took a while too come around and when they did they're shocked.

Because one look around from their strange hiding spot told them they sure weren't on Berk anymore. More to the point they're on Earth anymore. For wherever they were this wasn't either! And what was going to happen next was anyone guesses!
