Hi! I sorta want to apologize for chapter one's layout. Once again, I'm not use to posting here. But I hope ya'll enjoy this chapter!


Fishlegs was examining some books in his hut when he came across what he was looking for. He had ran into Astrid as she was taking Val for a short walk around the island. As Val had been distracted by a zipline Astrid had asked him to look up Gink, and he gladly accepted the challenge. "Hmmm," Fishlegs looked at the page in his book, his eye's widening. "There's no possible way that she's from Gink." He whispered, as he scanned over it once again. "Gink was destroyed over a hundred years ago, by Dragon Hunters! The only way she would be from it is if..." Fishlegs dropped his book and glanced out his door. "She's a Dragon Hunter!"


Moonlight paced the forest. The light from the setting sun bounced off her scales and made it look like she was glowing. Her emerald eye's, though, looked troubled. She had no idea where her friend was, and the only reason she had let those strange vikings take her was because she needed help. NOT because Moonlight trusted them.

Glancing at the sky Moonlight sighed. "I hope Snowflake got home." The dragon whispered to herself. Her young friend (Who Moonlight sometimes thought was more like a daughter) was suppose to bring Xzander. He could hopefully talk Ocean into going home. Moonlight didn't like seeing her best friend troubled all the time.

Sighing again, Moonlight hoped up onto a high branch in a tree, and that's when she heard it. The sound of other dragons.

Moving silently, Moonlight crept close enough to the area to eavesdrop on the conversation. "

"Why do we have to be here again?" The voice obviously belonged to a Hideous Zippleback, but since Moonlight couldn't see which head spoke, she dubbed it Zip 1.

"Astrid brought us here. She and the other riders have their reasons!" This voice belonged to a female dragon, Moon decided to call her A, since she said...Wait, She said Riders! Moonlight excitedly thought to herself. Maybe these Riders could help.

"I say that we should just go home." A fiery voice cut in.

"No, we should stay here." A argued,

"No, I agree with Hookfang. We should go back to the Edge!" Zip 2 cut in,

"Well, of course you would think that! Your Riders are insane!" Another female.

Moonlight rolled her eyes at the arguing, but still listened. After a few more minutes of 'go, stay! go, stay!' One more voice cut in, along with a soft roar. A roar that made Moonlight's eyes widen.

"Enough! Were staying, and we will stay until our Riders come to get us." "But-" The male dragon growled at Hookfang, "Yes, Toothless."

This was Moon's chance, there was no more fighting and she could hopefully learn more about these other Dragon Riders.

"You know, your guy's argument was very interesting." Moonlight called, flying to the ditch. The first dragon she turned to was Toothless. The other Night Fury. He was a little bigger than her, and had more muscle. His eye's were a bright green, and he was missing half of his tail.

"I haven't seen another Night Fury since I left Dragonsay Mountain, 11 years ago." She glowed just a bit at her forehead, so faint that only a Night Fury's eye's could detect. Toothless did a sweeping bow (which is really just him bending his head towards the ground, unwrapping his tail from around him, and spreading out his wings all at once)

"Princess Stardust." He whispered, "Pardon me, but I thought they stopped sending out JNF'S hundreds of years ago." Moonlight bowed her head to him, which was a signal that meant he could arise from his bow, and explained. "They usually don't, considering how rare it is for us to be born, but one of the elders, along with one of the Keepers, decided to send me out."

Moonlight curiously looked at him, and asked a question that had popped into her mind since she heard his name.

"I overheard you all talk about your Riders, so I'm guessing that Toothless was a name given to you by a viking?" Toothless gave a low laugh, and looked at the young princess. "Yes. My name back at Dragonsay was Dusk."

Moonlight's eye's brightened just a bit. "I remember you. You were friends with my older brother, Jupiter." Toothless smiled, "Yes, he had been so excited when you hatched." Toothless laughed again and swung his tail, "You had no idea how to control you blasts and almost hit us a both a couple of times! You've grown up to be a very pretty dragon." Moonlight ducked her head, and the two dragons shyly watched each other, until the Deadly Nadder stepped forward.

"Toothless, would you care to explain what's going on? You never said that you were from Dragonsay Mountain! And what is a JNF?"

"And why do you refer to her as Princess?" Hookfang asked, joining in the conversation.

Moonlight stepped back as Toothless looked to his friends. "Stormfly, I've never mentioned that I'm from Dragonsay because I didn't want you all distracted. My job was to help stop evil dragons, and maybe one day bond with a human and try to show others that dragons and man can live together. Now the second question should be answered by the Princess."

Stepping forward Moonlight looked at the pretty Nadder named Stormfly, "JNF stands for Jewel Night Fury. We are very rare Night Furies born with special powers. Some of our scales seem purple or blue due to what the Dragon Keepers call a defect. They sorta look like jewels, which is what the Keepers decided to call them. We can charge our blast's so much that it seems to make these jewels glow. Since, as I mentioned, we are rare I don't know what happens when we become Alpha's. The only other thing I can really tell you is that we are only born females."

A Gronkle stepped forward, and Moonlight realized that she was the other female. "What do you mean, 'all I can really tell you?'"

Moonlight looked at Toothless from the corner of her eye, "Some things stay between species. I'm sure that the Gronkles have a few secrets of their own?" The Gronkle looked down guiltily, a little embarrassed for pressing farther.

"Excuse me!" Hookfang stopped his foot impatiently and the grass under it smoldered some. "Hookfang, I refer to her as Princess because JNF's have the statuses as Princess, and unless a male Night Fury has more strength-"

"Or earns the right to be King," Moonlight interrupted, making Toothless smile a bit,

"Yes, or earns the right to be King. The Princess becomes Queen of the Night Furies, and the dragons at Dragonsay. Which includes Bewildersbeasts." The four eye's of the Zippleback widened at this news, "Then Dragonsay is larger than we thought." They whispered to each other. Moonlight shook her head at the Zippleback and turned to Toothless.

"Your Riders are taking care of mine." "The girl?"

"Yes. Her name is Ocean Rose, and I need to get to her. I know what she's like, and at the moment she's sorta wearing a disguise. She won't let them know who she truly is unless she realizes that they are also Dragon Riders."

Toothless swung his tail back and forth as he thought, and Moon's eye's couldn't leave the artificial tail flap. "He was in an accident years ago." Stormfly whispered to her.

"Okay. We'll help you, Princess Stardust." Moonlight shook her head, "Thank you. But no more calling me Princess. At Dragonsay, I am known as Princess Stardust. But out here, I am known as Moonlight, and either that, or Moon, is what I would like to be referred to as." Toothless nodded and the other dragons said their names.

Stormfly, formerly Partheni. (Guess which she likes more) Hookfang, formerly Deathwing. Meatlug, formerly Granite (Gronkle tradition was to name each baby after a rock or ore). And, Barf, formerly Gassbreath, and Belch, formerly Sparki.

"Hold up, Toothless. I thought you said that we are not to leave until our Riders come and get us." Hookfang growled, he didn't always get along with their leader, much like the two dragon's Riders. "Yeah, can you change your own rule?" Barf asked. Toothless rolled his eyes, gave the dragons a mischievous smile and winked at Moonlight. "I just did."


Ocean Rose sat cross-legged at the edge of the cliff. Astrid and Hiccup weren't far away, so she knew that writing in her diary was way out of the question. And that meant that it was only her and her thoughts. No, only her and her nightmares.

Nightmares of the battle that had ended with Xzander almost dying, and a long scar on his back. The battle that left Moonlight injured, but thankfully no permanent damage. The battle that made Ocean decide to leave. And the battle that left her wondering why her greatest enemy, had once saved her life.

It took her all the strength that she could muster to not shout in frustration at the words he had said 'I should have let you die in that fire!'

"Why in the world would Viggo have saved me?" She whispered, resting her chin on her hands.

"What was that?" A voice asked from behind her. Ocean turned to see a big guy with blonde hair and blue eyes looking at her. Fishlegs.

"I said 'why in the world are you guys so nice!' " She giggled nervously and got up, gesturing to the huts,"I mean, you guys don't even know me. I'm not that used to strangers like you guys."

Once again, Ocean inwardly cringed at the way she was handling things,

What's going on with me? She thought as Fishlegs looked at her, Why is it that the one time I REALLY REALLY can't have anyone find out who I am, I can't think up any good lies?

Fishlegs thoughts were remarkable similar as he watched the girl before him, Does she realize how bad these lies are? But what if she's not lying? Or, maybe she is lying but isn't a Dragon Hunter? He looked her over, She definitely doesn't look like a Dragon Hunter. Fishlegs offered a weak smile, then cleared his throat,

"Um, Hiccup and Astrid want you to know that dinner's ready. Although, I have to warn you, the twins are cooking tonight and their creations can be...interesting to say the least. Ocean giggled and thought of Hunter.

"I don't know," She said as they walked towards the Clubhouse, "I've had some pretty interesting meals before."

"Oh?" Fishlegs looked at her from the corner of his eye and noticed a genuine smile playing at the corners of her mouth, "Yeah, I have a friend who likes to try out his new creations on me and the rest of my friends." "How interesting are we talking." Ocean cringed as she looked at Fishlegs,

"Over-salted yak, with a pepper, carrot, and onion sauce and," Ocean put her hand over her mouth before continuing, "charred cabbage topped by unrecognizable herbs and cheese."

Fishlegs eyes widened and he stopped walking right before they entered the Clubhouse, "You actually ate it?"

Ocean laughed and looked at him, "Not really. I took one bite then buried it! It was a hazard to viking-kind!" The two teenagers laughed as they walked inside, grabbing attention from the other teens.

"What's so funny?" Astrid asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Val was just telling me about a horrible recipe a friend of hers came up with, and how she ended up burying it."

Hiccup and Astrid exchanged glances, but decided it better not to ask.

"So, Val, how do like the Edge?" Snotlout asks, sliding over to the girl. "It's a very nice place," Ocean said pleasantly. "You know, I could totally show you around."

Ocean laughed nervously, and tried to back away, "Uh, you know I think I'm fine, I mean-" But she was cut off by Tuffnut coming up from behind, which left her pinned against a wall,

"You know, I'm a better guide than Snotlout." Ocean threw a glance to Astrid while trying to stay in character while her mind kept shouting,Just stomp on his foot or something! Your a warrior, two guys are nothing! But, as mentioned before, that would break character.

"Uh," Astrid pushed through the two guys and grabbed Ocean's arm, "I think that Val and I will just take our dinners back to my hut. Hiccup, Fishlegs, care to join us?"

Hiccup and Fishlegs took the hint, and gathered up some food, while Tuffnut, Ruffnut, and Snotlout complained,

"What are we suppose to do?" Tuffnut asked, Astrid flicked her hand at him, "Just, go do patrol."

"But-"

"NOW!"

The three teens grumbled, grabbed some food for the go, and headed out, while the other four headed to Astrid's. The events that would follow would shock them all, and change their lives.
