Prologue
Hiccup sat on the cliffside with Toothless, watching the clouds go by. Toothless suddenly became anxious.
"Whoa, whats wrong buddy?" Hiccup asked. Toothless began to smell the air. Hiccup then heard what Toothless heard.
"What's a baby doing out here?" he got onto Toothless and followed the sound. They landed on a beach of the island, only to see a woven basket washed ashore. Hiccup got off Toothless and ran to the basket. what he saw was shocking; a baby with Nightfury wings. He picked her up and held her, her small hands reaching for his finger.
"What are doing out here little one?" he bent down to pick up a bottle with a letter in it. he opened it.
"Who ever finds my daughter, i pray that they are kind. Please take care of her, she is the last of our people. as our ship was sinking, i put my daughter in this basket, the current i knew well. Please keep her safe and one day she will be strong and brave. Now i leave to you, my most precious possession..." he looked up from the letter.
"Nightshade. so that's your name huh?" Toothless looked at little Nightshade, whose hands rested on his snout.
"Come on bud, we gotta get her back to Berk, she needs something to eat." he mounted Toothless and headed for Berk.
Two years later.
Nightshade and Toothless were almost inseparable. Ever since she learned to get out of her crib, she slept with Toothless. Hiccup tried to get the two year old to sleep in her own crib but failed. Stoic had taken her in as his own, so now Hiccup had a little sister. She couldn't fly, and had a bad habit of annoying the terrible terrors. It was late morning and Nightshade was in the academy, lost and looking for Toothless, who was out on a mission with Hiccup. She was under Gobbers supervision, who was currently having a heart attack, knowing Stoic would probably kill him if he found out he lost Nightshade. He couldn't help it! the toddler moved like a terrible terror and was twice as fast! he finally got to the arena and found the toddler trying to see into a fish barrel. Gobber picked her up.
"How many times have i told you? Don't run off on your own!" he said. She nipped at his fingers, Fishlegs had pointed out that it was more than likely her way of saying she was hungry.
"You know i am hungry too. Why don't we go get some chicken?" he tickled her tummy, making her giggle.
"Sheesh you are worse than Hiccup when he was a baby. He used to be all over berk. he would get into all kinds of trouble." He walked to berk and got some cooked chicken, Nightshade grabbed the leg and ferociously devoured it. she even ate the marrow in the bones. The ground began to shake. Nightshade let out a squeak, Gobber running to pick her up before she got hurt, he was thrown to the ground by the Screaming death, whose eyes set upon Nightshade, who squealed in fear. It roared at her, making her turn and run. She made it only so far before a sharp spine from the monster hit her leg. She screamed in pain, falling to the ground. She cried for Toothless, but he was too far away, Stoic charged toward her, enraged. The Screaming Death screamed at him, then turned and grabbed Nightshade by the shirt. She squealed in fear. Stoic went to hit it with a wood pole, only to have his leg cut into by the spine. And just like that, the Screaming Death the the toddler were gone.
Hiccup was riding Toothless, when all the dragons started to freak out. Hookfang lit on fire when Snotlout tried to keep him from flying.
"Whoa, Meatlug what's wrong?" Barf and Belch were snapping at each other. they all had heard Nightshades cries, as a mother dragon hears her babies cries from miles away.
"Guys, lets go back to Berk, somethings wrong. Seriously wrong. They headed towards berk, only to find a angered Stoic and a devastated Berk.
"What happened?" Hiccup asked. He looked around.
"Dad...Where's Nightshade?" Stoic looked up at Hiccup.
"I'm sorry son."
