The Aftermath

Please note: EXTREME SPOILERS AHEAD FOR HTTYD 3! PLEASE READ AT OWN RISK!
And, Httyd and all of it's characters do NOT belong to me! Unfortunately...
Toothless tiptoed into the cave, feeling as if he was walking on eggshells. As his eyes adjust to the darkness, he could make out a white dragoness, and his heart swelled as he nuzzled his mate, Luna the light fury.
"Almost time" she purred, and Toothless gave her an excited gummy smile. after 5 years, he was having children of his own!
He looked behind him as a dragon announced his presence with an inquiring chirp.
"Cloudjumper." Toothless stepped forward to greet his old friend and second in command.
"Alpha Toothless." Cloudjumper bowed, something that Toothless couldn't stop him from doing, and then looked over his shoulder at where Luna lay.
"How is she?"
"Her mother says another 2 weeks, but Luna thinks it will be sooner," Toothless answered.
Cloudjumper snorted. "Why you would want children is honestly beyond me!"
"oh come on Cloudjumper, don't you just love little baby hatchlings, so full of innocence and love?"
Cloudjumper snorted at his description and Toothless added mischievously "anyway they are much cuter than human hatchlings."
"Well your precious innocent hatchlings," Cloudjumper said "are rebelling in the nursery, and need you to come and put them in their place."
Toothless swallowed a sigh, because all he wanted was to spend some time with his beloved Luna. Feeling the alpha mode flowing through him, making him more powerful with each step, he jumped off the edge of the cave and flew deeper into the hidden world, where the nursery was, furthest away from any kind if threat.
the young hatchlings were all rushing around like mad things because, like Valka and Hiccup had once said, they listened to NO ONE!
However, as they heard Toothless roar, announcing his arrival, they froze in awe as their majestic alpha landed in the center of them all.
The silence continued, while Toothless slowly ran an eye over the baby dragons. then Stormfly's (A/N: what are baby dragons even called?) chick has gave an excited squeal, yelling for all to hear
"TOOTHLESS'S HERE!"
oh no
chaos reigned. Alpha Toothless was well known in the hatching grounds, and all the excited babies bowled him down, grabbing and biting whatever they could.
Cloudjumper sat back head tilted and if dragons had eyebrows, his would be raised, while Toothless struggled and begged for mercy.
"alright you guys, you've won." A young light fury flew off her perch and flicked her tail. there was a chorus of "awws," but they obediently left Toothless, sitting back so that the Alpha could struggle to his feet.
"Hope they didnt hurt you to much." Luna's older sister Glimmer asked, her blue eyes sparkling with amusement.
"Lets just say all the teeth are sharper than last time." His comment earned a rumble of laughter from the assembled females.
"Still want kids?" Cloudjumper asked teasingly
"Who wouldn't?" Toothless asked, then clambered to his rear legs so that he could whack Cloudjumpers head gently with his paw. "oh yeah, you don't."
"I don't see why not Cloudjumper." Meatlug commented, looking proudly over her brood of 5 rocky looking eggs. "There are plenty of lovely young available stormcutters, if ever you're interested."
Toothless wished he had one of Hiccup's dream inventions. something that could capture a moment forever, so that he could forever see the horror on Cloudjumper's face, as the female dragonesses twittered amused.
"I have s-something to...to do!" Cloudjumper stammered, not able to get away from the nursery fast enough.
"Tell us a story, Mr. Alpha sir." A monstrous nightmare asked,
"Which one?" Toothless preened in the spotlight as he settled down. "The time i single-handedly took down the Red Death, or when i defeated the Evil Bewilderbeast and became the Alpha or the..."
"The one where you meet Hiccup, if you will tell us, Toothy." the assembled group turned to see Luna matralize out of her cloaking, nuzzling next to Toothless. Toothless felt a lump in his throat, but nodded. with a serious look on his face, he settled down and took a breath. It still hurt to think of Hiccup, and he wondered what had become of his best friend. But these dragons needed to know that not all humans were bad, that humans could change, even if it took a long time.
"Ok guys. I first met Hiccup on a night that seemed like any other. The raids were going well, because Hiccup was ruining everything for his village."
There was laughter, but Toothless hardly heard them. Instead he felt like he could see the catapults he shot, feel the ropes tightening as Hiccup shot down his first dragon. feel the pain as he crashed through trees and felt his tailfin rip away completely. The throbbing in his head as he lost consciousness, drifting into a painful slumber, unknown that when he would wake up, his life would throw a whole load of surprises his way.
...
Toothless came to a breathless halt a week later. Cloudjumper gave him what could have been called a smile, but Cloudjumper never smiled.
"It's taking so long." Toothless grumbled while Cloudjumper licked a paw casually.
"Why can't I just stand there?"
"Because, Alpha Toothless." Cloudjumper answered tiredly "You were getting in the way, and you're panicking caused Luna to panic, so Glimmer and Pearl didn't want you in there with Luna Moon."
"I wasn't panicking." Toothless growled, settling down in the sand at last. he wished he had something to chew on, like Hiccup's leg (the prosthetic one!) or Hiccup to tell him it was ok.
He wondered if Hiccup had any human hatchlings, and how they would live on Astrid's food that Toothless wouldn't feed his worst enemy, never mind his children! And without dragons? How were they going to have a complete and happy life if they had never flown to the ends of the earth, or touched the clouds from a dragons back?
" You okay Toothless?" Cloudjumper asked. "You've gone all quiet and that's never a good thing."
Toothless snorted and shook his head. "No, no, I was just thinking about Hiccup, wondering what he would do in this situation."
"Knowing him." Cloudjumper answered dryly, "He would be as wound up as you are, jotting down something illegible on that book of his, to show that fat friend of his so that they can both do some dragon fangirling."
Toothless gave him a shove. "I meant if Hiccup was a father. Do you think him and Astrid are married by now?"
"They'd better be." Hiccstrid Captain Cloudjumper snorted. "And I wouldn't be surprised if he had a few hatchlings of his own by now."
"Speaking of hatchlings." they all jumped as Pearl, Luna's mother came to a stop beside them, "Luna wants you to come meet them."
"Them?" Pearl nodded. "You're a father to three Toothless. Congratulations!"
Toothless gave her a hurried nod, then spread his wings and powered to the cave in the nursery, where Luna had moved for the birth*
in the light of the crystals, Toothless made out Luna lying in her nest, her body pulled tightly around the three newborns.
She looked up, blue eyes full of love and joy and whispered "aren't they great?"
Toothless nodded, unable to say anything else for fear of crying. The three babies lay curled in a heap, snoring ever so quietly.
"This one will be called Sapphire." Toothless nudged a tiny scaly body who had just opened her blue eyes and was staring owlishly at a blurry Toothless. She was mostly black like her father but when she rolled onto her stomach, yawning, Toothless saw she had a white stomach and paws.
"This little one will be Angle." Luna continued, giving a green eyed, mostly white baby a lick on the head. They both looked at their only son, a green eyed black one with white knobs on his back, and said at the same time, "Inky."
Luna ran her tail along the backs of her children, purring. Toothless knew he would have to go announce the three new hatchlings to the rest of the world, but now he wanted to spend time with his new family. He settled down next to his mate, and closed his eyes.
A/N I"ve been wanting to write an Httyd story since i first saw the first movie. now the trilogy has ended so bring on the fanfictions!Please note, i wrote this story on my phone at who knows what hour so i apologies for any dumb mistakes.
i also apologize for spoiling anything (although i did warn you) and hope you like the names i chose. Yes, the names and the genders of the night lights are not confirmed, but my siblings and I thought these were cute names.
Also, Glimmer and Pearl are my Ocs
Plus, i decided that dragons like light and night furys give birth to live young, like in Cressida Cowell's books (that's how Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the 2nd survived)
..
Have anything to say? then please say it! drop me a PM or a review, IDK, like...if you want to...Anyway, so long guys.
P.s Httyd 3 was awesome, right?
