The Deadly Nadder soon dropped out of hyperspace and there they saw Berk in the distance.

"What a beautiful world," said Ragnar looking through the window.

"It is," said Heather, who was sitting at the co-pilot seat. She then looked at Ragnar curiously. "So, what's it like being a Jedi?"

"Hard to describe," Ragnar admitted. "We're not only powerful warriors, but were also keepers of knowledge, secrets and where sometimes diplomats."

"I take it that you fought in the Clone Wars?" said Astrid.

"I was only apparent Padawan the war started, but I suddenly saw a lot of action," said Ragnar.

"What say Padawan?" Ruffnut asked.

"A Padawn is a Jedi in training," said Fishlegs. "Basically they serve either a Jedi Master or Knight and they begin to teach them the journey of becoming a Jedi."

"Sounds boring," said Tuffnut.

"Yeah, why learn stuff when you can kill stuff," said Snotlout.

Heather rolled her eyes.

"They have a one track mind, don't they?" said Ragnar.

"You have no idea," said Astrid as she descended towards Berk.

"So who was your Master?" Heather asked.

"I served under the tutelage of Master Yuon Par," said Ragnar. "She was a very interesting Master to say the least, but very wise and very knowledgeable."

"I heard of her," said Fishlegs looking up. "Wasn't she a member of the Jedi High Council and spend most of her time unearthing ancient Jedi relics?"

"You know quite a lot," Ragnar noted.

"Fishlegs finds the Jedi quite fascinating," said Heather smiling. "I think you're probably the most exciting thing he seen in years."

"Command, this is Captain Astrid, requesting permission to land," said Astrid over the comm.

"Welcome back Captain," the communication officer. "I hope your mission was a success."

"More than you know," said Astrid looking at Ragnar.


The moment they landed they made their way to the command centre where Stoick stood waiting. He had already been briefed about what had transpired and was looking and Ragnar with great interest.

"So, our contact happened to be a Jedi," said Stoick. "The Galaxy has a funny sense of humour."

"I find the trick is to learn how to take a joke," said Ragnar.

Stoick frowned. "I'm however a bit more concerned about this spy you believe is in our midst."

"Sir, while I do not like the idea of a traitor, it does make a lot of sense," said Astrid. "I mean how else would Agent Eret know that we were on Kessel."

"It would also explain how the First Order would know all our tactics," said Gobber.

"And I thought our situation wasn't bad enough," said Stoick. He then looked at Ragnar and remember that he had not introduced himself. "Forgive me, I don't believe we've been formally introduced."

"Yes, I'm Jedi Knight Ragnar Keatson," said Ragnar humbly bowing.

"I am General Stoick Haddock," said Stoick.

Ragnar stared at him. "Haddock? You wouldn't by any chance no a Hiccup Haddock?"

Everyone eyes were now upon him.

"No, I'm the last of my line," said Stoick.

"Who is this Hiccup Haddock?" Astrid asked curiously.

"My best friend, he's a Jedi Knight as well and we fought side-by-side both during the Clone Wars and during the Galactic Civil War."

Gobber looked at Stoick, who seems standby this piece of information. "How old is he?" Gobber asked.

"About the same age as me, twenty-five," said Ragnar bit bewildered by the question.

Stoick and Gobber's eyes widened. The two of them couldn't believe what they were hearing, it sounded impossible, almost improbable.

"Is there something the matter, sir," said Astrid noticing the looks on Stoick and Gobber's faces.

Gobber could tell that Stoick was too shocked to speak and decided to do it for him, "Twenty-six years ago, we crossed pass with a Jedi and Stoick and she fell in love. Stoick even asked if she would marry him, but she left before she gave an answer."

"And what was her name?" Ragnar asked, though the look on his face indicated that he only knew the answer.

"Valka?" said Stoick.

"But that's the name of Hiccup's mother," said Ragnar his eyes widened. "I should realised the moment I saw your eyes, you have the same eyes."

"I have a son," said Stoick breathlessly. He then looked at Ragnar with a determined look on his face. "Where is he?"

"I don't know," said Ragnar honestly.

"Don't lie, I know for fact that you been smuggling Jedi of worlds," said Stoick slamming his fist on the table.

"Yes, I have been smuggling Jedi off worlds, but I don't know where they are," said Ragnar.

"Come again?" said Astrid frowning.

"It was something Hiccup came up with I smuggle Jedi drop them off at a random location and then he takes them off to where ever we are starting the Jedi Order," Ragnar explained. "This way if I get caught are not able to reveal the location of the Jedi."

"Smart," Astrid admitted.

"But why do you need to restart the Jedi Order?" Fishlegs frowned. "I thought the Jedi was starting to rebuild after the Galactic Civil War?"

"We were," Ragnar admitted. "Valka was the one that was leading us, we found other potential Jedi and started to train. However, like last time we were betrayed from within. One of the pupils we selected betrayed us to the First Order and their Emperor. Valka told me and Hiccup to leave and so we did."

"So you're saying you're a coward," said Snotlout.

"If we stayed we would have been slaughtered, better to live in order to fight for another day," said Ragnar bluntly.

"Do you know what became of Valka?" Stoick asked.

"No idea, we don't know if she survived not," said Ragnar synthetically.

"Why are you trying to smuggle Jedi?" Astrid asked.

"Well, not all the Jedi died during the Jedi Purge, most managed to survive from their Clones, others left the Order when the war began, but now were just a former shadow of what we once were," said Ragnar.

"I don't suppose that you know Drago Bludvist?" Stoick asked.

"Only a bit, he was a Jedi Knight, but as the Clone War progressed he started to fall to the Dark Side and then he betrayed the council and led the forces to the Jedi Temple and exterminated anyone there, even the younglings."

"He murdered children?" said Heather looking appalled.

"I think Valka knew him better than the rest of us and she probably suspected his betrayal, because no sooner had we escaped that she contacted us," said Ragnar. "Once we met her we began to compare notes and then we discovered something horrifying that the Supreme Councillor was the Dark Lord begin looking for years."

"How did a Sith Lord became Supreme Chancellor?" said Fishlegs bewildered. "How did the Jedi not see it coming, I read that you could sense those who use the Dark Side and are sometimes able to see into the future."

"We can, but just before the Clone Wars started provisions were clouded by the Dark Side of the Force," said Ragnar crossing his arms. "I can only imagine that he used some sort of dark ritual to disrupt our visions."

"That still doesn't explain how you became Supreme Councillor," said Astrid crossing her arms.

"As oppose he realise that when someone tried to take one's freedom people fight for it," said Ragnar. "So instead he traded freedom for security."

"How could he possibly have done that?" Heather frowned.

"Simple, he manipulated the Separatists, convincing them to fight the Republic, convincing them that the Republic was corrupt, and in some ways it was," Ragnar admitted. "He had his apprentice create an army for the Republic, a Clone Army."

"You're saying that the Clone Army was created by the Sith," said Stoick shocked. "Yes, and we didn't find that out until later into the war and when we discovered the truth we kept it secret."

"Why?" said Astrid stunned.

"Because how would you think the people of the Republic would feel when they discovered that their clone soldiers were created by the enemy?" Ragnar asked.

"It would have destroyed the Republic from within, leaving it vulnerable to the Separatists," said Astrid understandingly.

Ragnar nodded.

"Then the Clone War was nothing more than a front for him to gain power," said Stoick looking appalled.

"Yes, it wasn't until the very end of the war we realised the truth and several members of the Jedi Council try to apprehend him, and they would succeed if it wasn't for Drago," said Ragnar.

"Why did he betray the Order?" Heather frowned.

"Darth Imperious manipulated his mind, convincing him that the Jedi were flawed and he was right," said Ragnar. "What he said exactly I don't know, but whatever he said convinced Drago to betray us."

Everyone remained silent, which was then broken by the cries of a certain black haired Wookie.

"I know, I know, I'll tell him, I'll tell him," said Ragnar calmly.

"What did he say?" said Stoick curiously.

"He's saying that he has a life debt to your son," said Ragnar.

"Life debt?" Snotlout frowned.

"It's something that Wookies do whenever their lives are saved," Ragnar explained. "You see Toothless here was a slave to the Hutts. He was forced to fight anyone that they wanted and then they poisoned him."

"Poisoned him?" said Heather shocked.

"They wanted him to lose and it was a fight to the death," Ragnar explained. "Luckily for Toothless, Hiccup was in the crowd and he could see what the Hutts were up to and jumped in to save him."

"Things got a bit tense," said Ragnar.

Toothless roared.

"Okay, it got chaotic. The Hutts ordered everyone of their bounty hunters to kill the two of them, but what they saw that he was a Jedi they stopped. Hiccup then offered them some credits in order to take Toothless off the hands, tendrils… whatever and for that day on the two of them haven't been separated."

"Until now you mean," said Astrid.

"When the Galactic Civil War started we had to part ways, me and Hiccup went with Valka and Toothless went back home to help his people where I believe he got the rank of general."

Toothless roared proudly.

"Well, can certainly use the help against the First Order," said Stoick.

Toothless roared happily.

"He would be honoured," Ragnar translated.

"All right," he then looked at everyone in the command centre. "I think we got nothing more to discuss, dismissed. Heather why don't you show Ragnar around."

"Yes, sir," said Heather.


A few hours later, Heather was showing Ragnar around. Those she felt slightly uneasy been in the presence of a Jedi, she can get the image of him fighting the Stormtroopers out of her head.

"I sense that you're uneasy about me," said Ragnar.

Heather blushed. "I—I just never seen a Jedi before."

"Understandable, considering that with everywhere these days," said Ragnar sadly.

"How many are there you?" Heather asked.

"We used to be ten thousand strong, but the two coups I have to estimate that is probably only a hundred of us left," said Ragnar closing his eyes.

"That few?" Heather stared.

"After the Jedi Purge, Imperious ordered Drago to hunt us down. In truth I don't know how many there are others, but there will always be Force Sensitives, which does give us hope."

"Force Sensitives?" Heather enquired.

"Those were able to use the Force," said Ragnar. "You see within our cells there are microscopic cells called Midi-chlorian and every life form has them. However unlike the other cells in our bodies their intelligent and they listen to the Force and those who are sensitive enough able to use the Force."

"So that's how come the Jedi are so special?" said Heather.

"I've been researching the Midi-chlorian all my life," said Ragnar.

"You're a doctor?" said Heather stunned.

"Well, I know why the range of healing techniques," Ragnar admitted.

"Jedi are so amazing I can see why Fishlegs is so into them," said Heather.

"Many people just see us swordsman warriors have they forget that we are actually peacekeepers, whose is to prevent war," said Ragnar. "When the Clone Wars again, we were blind and in our blindness we fell into arrogance and that's what truly destroyed us."

"Do you think you can stop Drago?" Heather asked hopefully.

"I can certainly try," said Ragnar.
