Five days had passed since Hiccup had left, the other Riders had returned on the fourth day, carrying the chains that were dragon proof with them. Fishlegs calculated where to attach them to provide the steadiest journey for those in the nest and also the easiest points to get and keep it moving for those doing the pulling. Today his mother had arrived with a path mapped out to the best place to keep the dragons. Hiccup had told her to try and find some place close to Berk, but not so close as to interfere with their food for them and their dragons.

By the next morning they would be ready to move out, and still no sign of Hiccup. Just as the sun was setting, she heard the familiar beat of Toothless' wings. She hurried outside, looking for him and Hiccup and seeing them landing nearby. Hiccup smiled at her and she rushed to give him a hug, which he returned. Then he took her hand and pulled her along as he went to find Anya.

"What's our status?" he asked. "We are ready to pull out in the morning. We were beginning to worry you wouldn't arrive in time." He smiled and said, "Wouldn't want to miss this once in a life time trip." He spotted Anya and said, "Can I talk to you alone again?" She nodded and once again led him and Astrid to her home.

Once they were inside and the door was closed, Hiccup said, "I have arranged for food and livestock to be delivered to not only here, but the other two islands as well. Some is from me, some from Heather, some from Eret and some from Merida. We all had plenty and are willing to share." Anya smiled at him and said, "Thank you Hiccup, it's a relief to know the dragons will be gone soon and that more food for winter is on its way. One less thing for me to worry about."

She hugged him Astrid as they prepared to leave her home, thanking them one more time. He turned to Astrid and said, "I missed you." Leaning in for a kiss as he spoke. Astrid accepted the kiss and as they parted she whispered "I missed you too." Then in a louder voice she said, "Well we better get some rest so we'll be ready for tomorrow." And they headed off their separate ways to do just that.

The move went better than they thought it would, the dragons probably thinking that it was the ocean moving them again. Valka led the way on Cloudjumper, who along with the other dragons from Berk, was pulling the nest along. One dragon and rider, it switching throughout the journey, stayed inside to be sure that it didn't get to rough inside the nest or that they didn't pull it to fast so that water came in, but they never ran into that problem.

It took a few days to reach where they were going, but when they did, Hiccup deemed it perfect. It was far enough from Berk not to bother their food system, but close enough where he could come and go, looking for the other Night Fury. They secured it to the ocean floor with the dragon proof chains, it wouldn't be going anywhere for a while and they would hopefully check back often enough not to worry about it coming loose.

Hiccup wanted to stay and look for the other Night Fury, but he knew he needed to return to Berk and be chief for a little while before continuing his dragon search. At least the dragons were safe and away from Dagur, he wouldn't have to worry about him getting ahold of a Night Fury. So he left with the others, promising himself, Toothless and the other Night Fury that he would be back as soon as he could.

*Admit I totally had you thinking this search was for the dragons in the nest didn't I? And then you were wondering why did she call it dragon search if the dragons got found so soon? That could possibly be because originally it was going to be that, but then I got a better idea, it's about finding the elusive Night Fury in the nest! No this is not the last chapter, don't worry, more is coming! *
