Chapter 2:

It had been a month since Hiccup had seen Jack.

"Jack?" Hiccup whispered as he stayed near Toothless, who was knelt protectively by his rider.

Silence was his only response and Hiccup decided to call out a little louder.

"Jack!" He called, his voice echoing through the trees.

A sudden rustling from the bushes caused the viking to regret his actions and simply wait for the white haired teen to return.

He had fallen asleep in Toothless' pen that night, which arouse the suspicions of his friends yet again. Jack hadn't come back. But Hiccup had listened to the boy about staying in the pen until he came back.

Hiccup sighed and erased a part of his sketch. The legs were just too long. This boy he had seen, Jack, hadn't been wearing shoes.

After hours of laying in bed, drawing his cares away, it seemed Astrid had had enough. The blonde didn't even knock as she barged in his room, demanding he get out of bed and come flying with her.

"That's it, Hiccup! I won't let you waste your time in here anymore! You're coming with me on a fly and there's nothing that you can do about it. Come on!" Astrid said and she pulled the brunette boy out of the house.

Toothless and Stormfly sat in the snow in front of the house and looked up at the teens as they walked outside. Hiccup sighed as soon as he saw Toothless.

"Really? You're a part of this too?" he asked, only to be nudged by the night fury. He sighed and rubbed the dragon's head before grabbing the reigns and climbing onto the harness. "Fine."

Astrid laughed as her dragon took off into the sky, followed by Hiccup and Toothless. Flying around the sky made Hiccup feel more free. He closed his eyes as he leaned back on Toothless' harness, not noticing Astrid grin triumphantly at him.

"Hey, Dream boy!" Astrid called, causing Hiccup to look over at her. "Think you can keep up?!"

Hiccup smirked at the challenge and laughed.

"Shouldn't I be the one to ask you that!?" he called back before leaning down, towards Toothless' ear. "Let's show her what we're made of."

Toothless smirked and narrowed his wings as he sped up, causing Astrid and Stormfly to quickly fall behind. Hiccup felt free. He felt happy. For the first time in months, he didn't think about Jack. Flying with Toothless always helped. He was glad Astrid knew him well enough to try that. He laughed and leaned back with his arms outstretched, letting himself fall from Toothless' harness and soar through the air. He hadn't thought to put on his flight suit so he just held himself straight. He looked up to see Toothless falling with him. He grinned as Toothless gave him a dragon smile before turning to let him climb back onto his harness. Hiccup hooked himself back on and Toothless opening his wings to land softly onto the untouched snow.

Astrid landed near him and climbed off her dragon. She stood and laughed as she ran towards Hiccup and hugged him.

"You were amazing!" She exclaimed as she laughed.

Hiccup hugged her back and laughed along before pulling away. Astrid smiled at him before her eyes shifted to something behind him and her face fell.

"What the…"

Hiccup frowned and turned to look behind him. His eyes widened and he took a step back as Astrid grabbed his arm.

"What the hell is that?" Astrid asked.

In front of them was a large ice structure with spikes and black tones to it. (The large thing that Jack and Pitch make in the movie) Hiccup took a step back before digging into the satchel connected to Toothless' harness and pulled out his sketch book. He opened the book and sat down in the snow as he pulled out his pencil and began to draw. Toothless walked over and plopped down next to his friend and laid down. Astrid walked over to the brunette but kept her eyes on the sculpture in front of them as her dragon sat down next to her.

"Where do you think this came from?" she asked, breaking the silence.

Hiccup shook his head and shrugged as he focused on his pencil.

"I have no idea. It looks like it's made from ice so dragons couldn't have made it." he said.

Astrid nodded and grinned.

"Maybe Jokul Frosti made it." She joked.

Hiccup froze in his drawing before looking up at the blond girl. She raised an eyebrow.

"What? What's that look for?" She asked.

Hiccup stayed silent before shaking his head and returning to his sketchbook, finishing up his drawing and closing the book. He turned to Toothless and put the book in the satchel before standing. He crossed his arms and looked up at the statue in front of him.

"I'm gonna see if I can't get some of that black stuff." he said as he pulled out an empty bag and walked over.

"Be careful." Astrid said, standing as well, causing her dragon to stand as well and nudge her hand.

Hiccup nodded and walked over to the statue. He walked over to the lowest spike and grabbed the tip before attempting to break it off. No luck. He turned to Toothless and called him over. Toothless ran over and was then asked to break off the ice. Nodding, the dragon turned towards the ice spike and hit it with his tail, causing a bit to snap off and fall into the snow. Hiccup picked it up and put it in his bag.

"Astrid, let's head home!" Hiccup called.

The blond nodded and climbed onto her dragon, following Hiccup and Toothless through the sky as they flew towards Berk.
