Hiccup and Astrid returned to the valley and were relieved to see that Toothless and the Unnamed dragon were getting along. Toothless was demonstrating how to catch a fish and the other dragon was diligently watching, although his body language suggested he was more nervous than pleased.

Toothless made a grab for a particularly big one and chomped it, a bit before swallowing it whole.

The other dragon screeched and carried on in disgust, flapping around and backing away from him.

Hiccup and Astrid looked at each other confused.

"Hey, we're back guys!" Hiccup called. The blue and brown dragon halted and then instantly bloted up to hiccup, right at the same time as toothless did, which eventually became a race, which spiralled into what could only be described as the dragon version of 'pro-wrestling'.

Hiccup and Astrid were confused yet again as Toothless body slammed the white dragon, and tried to walk over him, when the other dragon pulled his front leg with his mouth and crawled out from underneath him.

"Are they... fighting over you?" Astrid asked, a hand on her hip and the other gesturing to them.

"I-I don't know why they would, but I'm flattered I guess..." he stated nervously.

.: Bold = Dragon Speak/Thoughts:.

Toothless tackled Jack from the back and leap-frogged over him.

"Oh no you don't!" Jack growled, taking advantage of the fact he could actually still fly and hovered over Toothleess waggling his tongue at him childishly.

Toothless gawked up for a moment before Growling and leaping up to try and get him back down, "Jack get down here! Toothless give you piece of his mind! Stupid Frost dragon!"

Jack laughed, in the only way a dragon can, but unfortunately wasn't watching where he was going when he flew straight into Hiccup...

"OOPS! Shoot, I keep forgetting I'm huge now!" he thought, sniffing the fallen teen to see if he's okay. Astrid grabbed him by the horns and shoved him away shouting at him unintelligibly about watching where he was going and not injuring her already prone boyfriend.

"Okay, okay calm down, you crazy lady! Stop hitting me!" He tried to communicate but it was obviously failing.

Toothless walked past casually with a bored expression and then nudged Hiccup awake. Toothless sat on his haunches and gestured in Jack's direction once Hiccup was up.

"Hiccup's evil mate is killing our best friend." he screeched even though he knew his master couldn't understand what he'd said.

Hiccup jolted up to the rescue, but thankfully Astrid had finished hitting him and now Jack sat like a cowering dog as she verbally lectured him.

"Man is she having a bad day or what..." he thought.

"Whoah, whoah, Astrid just calm down okay? He wasn't looking where he was going, it's fine!" He reassured her.

"You sure? You aren't concussed? Lemme see you eyes! You got any teeth missing? Open up! come on!" she insisted, wrenching open his mouth to inspect his teeth before recoiling at his breath.

Jack snorted at the dejavu he was experiencing. His friend Tooth did that to him all the time.

It was then that he remembered... "Tooth... Merida.. the witch.."

He pounced on Hiccup and frantically began to screech and grunt:

"Hiccup! It's me, Jack! I got trapped in a dragon body, cos of this crazy witch and now I can't get back! you have to help me! Please!"

But to his dismay, and his embarrassment, Hiccup threw him off and then chided him like a bad dog or something.

"Whoah, come on! I just saved your life! The least you could do is not try to break my ribs! Geeze!" he rubbed his sides painfully.

Jack REALLY needed to remember how strong he was now.

"Yeah, stupid Frost dragon." Toothless taunted.

Jack frowned at him and then lowered his stance, shooting a ball of frost and snow at him, causing the dragon to recoil in terror at the freezing substance.

"Huh, cool! So I can still use ice... HAH! The witch's spell totally didn't work! Well... not entirely anyway..." he rejoiced, bouncing on the spot.

Hiccup and Astrid were gobsmacked yet again and they stared at him as he pranced around like an idiot.

Hiccup instinctively stopped toothless from retaliating, and then he slowly stepped towards the other dragon...

"Did you see that Astrid? That was kind of like..."

He managed to get the other dragon to stay still. Jack paused and then lowered his head to look into his eyes, hoping that maybe something he did or said must have gotten him somewhere...

Hiccup touched his nose, as a general protcol before gingerly having a look at all f his other features.

The colours, and the shape of his limbs and claws, and then the angle and shape of his horns...

His big blue eyes...

"Frost..." he finished.

The dragon nodded its head, seemingly excited about hearing that word.

Hiccup knew that no ordinary dragon would be happy about the prospect of the cold.

"Frost?" he repeated curiously. The dragon screeched happily and flapped its wings bouncing again before gently blowing a flurry of little blue snowflakes his way.

they danced around and tickled Hiccup's face before melting away on his nose and Hiccup felt his heart stop, his eyes glued to the spot on his face where they had disappeared...

"Come on... please work... Hiccup, I need you to help me..." he pleaded mentally.

"J-Jack...?" He asked.

Jack screeched loudly and nodded hs head, waggling his tail around and pouncing, more gently this time, on his good friend.

he sat back and then pulled a Toothless, tugging his lips awkwardly into a tooth grin which came out like more of a smirk.

"Hiccup... Does... does this mean that your only human best friend just got turned into another dragon?" astrid asked, only just barely being able to make words from in her mouth.

"Uh...I guess so..." He helplessly whispered.
