As Valka put on her armour, Hiccup, Stoick and Gobber mounted their respective dragons and flew out to protect the nest and the dragons inside it. Once she had her armour on she ran to get the Alpha.

The Alpha already understood the severity of the situation and was ready to protect his nest. Valka mounted her dragon and lead the Alpha out of the mountain.

She looked down at the raging battle. There were other dragon riders flying around attacking Drago's dragons and his traps. Where they had come from, she didn't know or care. She was just glad they were here.

She looked for her son and spotted him talking to two people riding a Deadly Nadder. What words were being said she didn't know. But that wasn't important either. What was important was protecting the dragons.

Valka spotted Drago. She had to stop him. As Valka flew toward the self-proclaimed dragon god, she and Cloudjumper were struck down a netter bola.

She fell and came standing up. Drago was right in front of her, watching her. She did the only thing that came to her mind. She attacked.

"I've wait a long time for this," Drago stated as he fought back.

"You can not take our dragons," she yelled over the sounds of battle. "They are controlled by the Alpha."

"Then it's a good thing I brought a challenger," the madman sneered as he screamed into the sky waving his staff.

Valka watched in fear as a Bewilderbeast rose from the water and walked on to the shore. The sounds of the battle were silenced every so slightly. She could hear someone yelling about some kind of class. She did not recognize the voice, by somehow knew it belonged to one of the dragon riders that were helping protect the nest.

"Take down the Alpha," Drago ordered the Bewilderbeast.

"No," Valka cried as she went at the madman again.

Drago quickly knocked her down. Before she could even make a move, he placed his foot on top of her and removed her helmet. As he went for the kill, Stoick knocked him out of the way and helped her up.

"Thank you," she said as she got to her feet and looked at her husband.

"For you my dear, anything," Stoick promised. "Val, do you think you can stop them?"

Valka picked up her staff and ran toward her dragon. "I'll do my best. Come on Cloudjumper."

Together the dragon and rider flew toward the two Bewilderbeast. They ducked and dodged traps and Drago's dragons. When they got in between the battle, Valka waved her staff and commanded them both to stop fighting. Neither listened, the two giant dragons went after each other again. Fighting for the dragons.

The Stormcutter flew out of the way to ensure the safety of its rider. Once Valka was out of the risk of harm, she saw Stoick and Drago fighting one on one. That's when a terrible painstaking roar cut through the air. All battle ceased as the second Bewilderbeast killed the Alpha. She watched as all the dragons she rescued for over twenty years fly over to the new Alpha.

"...NOW FINISH HER," Drago screamed at the top of his lungs.

Valka and Cloudjumper flew as fast they could, trying to escape the icy blast of the new Alpha, but the Stormcutter's tailfins were frozen. Before she could register what had happened, she was falling off her dragon, cling on for dear life. When she couldn't hold on any longer, she fell.

Next thing she knew, Stoick had grabbed her and was slowing their fall with his axe in the ice. When they came to a stop, Valka tried to run to get to her dragon, but Stoick pulled her back and hid her from the Bewilderbeast.

In the distance she heard her son yelling. "STOP! Stop!"

She located him and saw that he landed in front of Drago Bludfist. She watched as he tried to change Drago's mind about dragons. Valka didn't know what was he saying, she just somehow knew what he was talking about it. She felt nothing but pride at how stubborn her son could be when it came to peace.

Her pride was short-lived when the Bewilderbeast took its focus off of her and on Hiccup and Toothless. She knew what was happening and had to stop it. Stoick seemed to know as well and was already yelling their son's name and running toward him.

As they got closer, she could hear her son pleading with his dragon to stop, but Toothless wasn't listening. The Night Fury was under the control of the Alpha.

Valka did her best to keep up with Stoick, but as he got closer to Hiccup, she knew what was going to happen. He was going to protect their son again. He was putting Hiccup first, like he did that fateful night twenty years ago.

Suddenly the world stopped as the final blow was fired. She saw Stoick unmoving with ice on top of him and her son regaining his senses and balance as he ran toward his father.

Valka ran as well, she helped turn Stoick on to his back and checked for a heartbeat. There was none. She turned and looked at her son. No words needed to be said. Stoick the Vast, Chief of Berk was dead.

"No," Hiccup cried. His voice barely above a whisper. He did not want to believe that the parent who raised him for twenty years was dead. He let himself fall on to his father and cry.

Out of the corner of her eye she saw Toothless returning to normal and realizing what he had done as the other dragon riders landed behind him. One of them rushed forward and knelt down on the other side of Hiccup as he cried over the loss of his father. She didn't know who this young woman was, she was just grateful that she was by Hiccup's side in his vulnerable state.

Toothless came forward and sniffed Stoick's hand and crooned softly as he tried to nudge it. Hiccup just pushed him away and yelled. "No! Get away from him! Go on, get out of here! Get away!"

The Night Fury cowered away as his best friend yelled at him. The dragon knew that he deserved to be punished for what he had done, but had wanted to correct the wrong. Hiccup couldn't seem to see that. Her son was blinded by grief and vengeance.

"It's not his fault. You know that," she consoled. "Good dragons under the control of bad people, do bad things." As she spoke all the dragons that were around flew off and followed to Alpha.

When she heard Toothless roaring, she looked over at the dragon and saw that he was under the control of the Alpha once again. The Night Fury was trying to follow but couldn't fly. She watch as Drago pinned him to the ground and got on top of him.

"Gather the men," Drago ordered his soldiers as he took to the sky. "Meet me at Berk"

"Toothless!" Hiccup exclaimed as he stood up and tried to go after his dragon.

"No don't," Valka said as she held her son back.

Hiccup stared at his dragon being flown away, then down at his father.
