AN: First of... Happy New Year

Second, I didn't update on Thursday because it was New Years Eve. But now that the holiday's are over (hopefully) I'll be going back into my Update-Every-Two-Day's routine.


Flying over the village, Dathomire pulled out an set of old panpipes, and blew on them to get the dragon's attention coming to a stop hovering above the plaza.

'Brothers and Sisters of the Snake,' he began enhancing his voice for all the winged reptiles to hear, telling Evangeline to translate his words so the Vikings could understand.

'The tribe coming to this island is not one that is friendly to our kind. Please Dragons, follow me and the other Riders, and we will take you somewhere to stay until they are gone.'

With that Dathomire blew on his panpipes again to tell them he was done and all together, without any fuss, all the dragons took off and waited for their Prince and the Riders to show them where to go.

"So... where exactly are we hiding them?" Hiccup asked coming over to Dathomir.

"Anywhere that's not on this island..." he said firmly setting off into the direction of Hellhimes Gate.


While this was happening, the lead boat of the visiting tribe had just came into port and the gang plank had been placed.

"Announcing the Chief of the Stealth-Walker tribe," the second in command said "Bill the Proud..."

After stepping aside the man revealed was just like any other Viking, he was strong, had scars over his arms, a missing leg, a belt of all the finest weaponry there is, and a horned helmet.

But the one thing that was different, the Berkians noticed was his cloak - he should of been wearing one anyway, what with him being a Chief... But while Stoick's one was made of fur, Bill's was basically a Dragon's skin made into one.

Seeing this, Stoick had visions of someone who looked just like this man, from years ago and gripped his fists tightly, ready to fight if need be, hoping this man was different, and Hiccup and the teenagers had gotten the dragons away.

"Ah the great Stoick the Vast of Berk," Bill said coming onto the pier, arms out wide. "It's nice to finally meet you. I have heard a lot about you and this island from the many citizens the Archipelago has..."

"Well that's strange, Bill," Stoick said staying as calm as he could. "Because I have to say we don't know anything about you or your tribe..."

"Well then," Bill said standing up tall and clearing his throat "I am Bill the Proud, Chief of the Stealth-Walkers. Second son of Brenda the Banshee and Peter the Protector.
Ten years ago I lost both my brothers, one in a fire, one by the arrow of a demon what is half Human, half Night Fury..." he continued noticing the looks on the Viking's faces and knowing that his lead was right that the demon had come here.
"Since then I have been hunting it whenever I can, to get justice for my brother, and to rid the world of it, and keep the children safe.
And I was told... it had come here so... Have you seen it?"

"We have..." Stoick said nodding "But we have not come to meet yet. Someone said they saw something strange in the woods this morning, we were just about to go searching for what it was, when your ships came into our waters."

"Then please... Stoick the Vast," Bill said bowing slightly a small smirk on his face. "Please show me where this demon is said to be... So I can kill it..."


Up in the skies Dathomire the dragons and the riders were all coming in to a landing onto Dragon Island, some of the dragons looking scared or having the feeling that they were being abandoned.

"Friends you are not here to stay forever..." Dathomire said seeing their faces "You're only here until the tribe's moved on to the next village."

"And how long will that take?" Astrid asked getting nods from the others.

"As long as it will take me to leave the island," Dathomire said spinning around. "The deals over Hiccup. All of you forget you ever saw me, forget anything you have learnt about me..." he told them looking at each one "Because as soon as we get back there and I have my bag back... I'm leaving."

'NO!' Toothless screeched and ran forward, Hiccup still on his back 'You can't leave Brother, we've only just got back together. We still need to show you the rest of the island and all the new fun things the Vikings like to do with us.'

"Noche... I'm doing this to keep them away from you." Dathomire told him, but speaking to everyone "You know who they are... You know what they are like... They will not leave the island until the thing they are hunting has moved on. And the longer they're on there not finding me, the more of the island they will destroy."

"Just who exactly are they then?" Fishlegs asked, Hiccup and Astrid having a good idea thanks to the story Dathomire told them.

"Someone I once called a brother," Dathomire said not looking at anyone before spreading his wings and taking off, the Rider's dragons following suit to bring the teenagers home.


Back on Berk the two tribes were just entering the forest, Bill the Proud leading, even though this was Stoick's island.

"So where exactly did this person say they saw the demon?" Bill asked after a bit of them not finding anything his hand gripping his sword, ready to pull it out just in case something attacked.

"It's this way," Stoick said leading them to the cove, having hopes that the kids weren't there.

Slowly they moved on, no one noticing the little yellow Terrible Terror who didn't follow the others was spying on them.

As fast as she could go, the Terror spread her wings and went to look for Dathomire to warn him not to come back to the cove.


In the sky, the Riders were just about to come back into the skies of Berk when the Yellow Terror came up and blocked their path.

'STOP!' she screeched holding up her paws 'Prince, there are people looking for you, and they seem really mean...' she said flying up to Dathomire.

'I know they're looking for me Lemon,' Dathomire said trying to get past her, only to be stopped 'Which is why I need to get to the cove and get my bag so I can leave...'

'But that's where there going,' Lemon said gripping his cloak and pulling with all her might to make him stop, but not getting anywhere.

'What do you mean 'That's where they're going'?' Dathomire asked coming to a halt and looking to the Terror.

'That's where the King of the Island is leading them...' Lemon answered facing him again.

"Um... Anything wrong Dathomire?" Hiccup asked wondering why the Terror was so determined to keep them from coming home.

"One of you will need to get my bag from the cove," was the answer Dathomire gave looking to the riders.

"What? Why?" everyone asked confused.

"Because Lemon here," he said cocking his head to the Terror "Just said that that's where they're heading, and if they find me there when they they get there, they'll attack."

"So?" Snotlout asked loudly "Just attack them back. It's can't be that hard."

"Strangely enough boy," Dathomire said anger and growling coming into his voice "I don't like to put innocent lives in danger, or fight unless it's necessary."

"Enough!" Hiccup said seeing that Snotlout was going to speak back. "The longer we stay here arguing, the more likely chance that they'll get there. I'll go get the bag. Toothless is the fastest, we'll be there and back before they get there."

"But what if you're not?" Astrid asked concerned for her friend.

"Only one way to find out..." Hiccup said taking off with Toothless, while Lemon and the others went to the sea stacks where they did some of their training, to wait.


Down in the cove, Hiccup and Toothless were just about to retrieve the bag (Hiccup and Toothless still together) when they heard a war cry and span around to see their 'Guest' with a sword and the bola from the valley come charging.

The bola snagged Toothless and pinned Hiccup down meaning he couldn't do anything.

"Ha, finally," Bill said coming forward to get a better look at the demon he had been chasing all these years only to find it was just a runt of a boy on top of a Night Fury. "Who are you?" he asked pointing his sword at the boy.

"I'm the son of the man standing behind you," Hiccup said nodding to his dad. "And this is my dragon Toothless."

"Where's the monster, boy?" Bill asked not lowering his sword, or letting Stoick free his son.

"I don't know," Hiccup said really wishing he had his knife so he can cut himself free "Why don't you look in the mirror?"

"Why you implemented little..." Bill said lifting his sword only for it to be blocked by Stoick's one.

"Perhaps you didn't hear what he said Bill..." Stoick said looking him in the eye "He is MY son," he said telling his men to free him and Toothless.

"CHIEF!" one of the Stealth-Walkers called getting Bill's attention as he showed him a familiar to them looking bag.

"So the demon IS here..." Bill said not caring about the fact that the heir of Berk was riding a Night Fury, turning back to his men "Search the whole island. Do what you must to capture him but bring him to me alive... I am the one who is to kill him... for what he did to my brothers."

"YES CHIEF!" his man said before heading off Bill following right after them.

"Hiccup I told you and the Riders to hide all the dragons," Stoick said staying in the cove after telling his men to keep the Stealth-Walkers from destroying anything.

"And we did," Hiccup said, still on top of Toothless "We took them all to Dragon Island and were just coming back for Dathomire to retrieve his bag and move on when a Terrible Terror, told us you were leading them here. Meaning Dathomire couldn't come for the bag, so I volunteered to get it."

"Now come on," he said pulling his dad on to Toothless "We have to put an end to this. And the only way to do so... Is to let them catch Dathomire."

With that, they took off and went to the sea stacks where everyone was waiting.
