AN: Good morning guys and gals. I have a bit of news. The epilogue will be published on Sunday but that won't be the end of this story. I can confirm that there will be a sequel with just as much comedy and action. Also I have prepared some side stories for this fic. The question is do I release the side stories on the same day as the epilogue or do I release one per day. The choice will be in the hands of my readers. Comment what you want, and the option with the most votes will be done. :)
Astrid's POV
Hiccup proceeded to place his arm over my shoulder to draw me closer. He then gave me a kiss on the lips in front of everyone. Wolf whistles could be heard from Alvin, and the twins. Gobber even yelled "Finally!"
"What was that for?" I ask, and playfully swat him.
"I didn't get a kiss today." Hiccup tells me, while wrapping his arms around my waist.
"So you decided to steal one?" I smirk.
"Well I'm considered a villain." Hiccup said, and gave me another peck on the lips. "Sometimes it's good to be bad."
It was a little while later that I heard the groan coming from Heather's unconscious brother. "Looks like Sparky's waking up. This should be fun." Hiccup chuckles.
"Uahhh.." Could be heard from the figure who was slowly sitting up holding his head. "I just had the weirdest dream."
"Not a dream bro." Heather said from the seat she had taken.
"Wait, what!" He looks around at all those assembled, and his eyes finally rest on Hiccup, and I.
"So you really are….." Dagur asked Hiccup, who simply replied with a "Yup."
"Okay, I've got to admit that how you hid your identity was pure genius!" Dagur said star struck.
"Oh great, he's gone into fangirl mode again." Heather grumbled.
"I've got a question?" Snotlout asked. "Why was he knocked out in the first place?"
"Yeah, I'm wondering about that as well. When you met me he was already out." Alvin states.
"Do you have to tell them?" Dagur whines.
"It's your own fault." Heather states.
"But…." Dagur says.
"No buts." Heather says with a smirk, and then turns to Hiccup. "Hiccup tell them." This sentence earned a groan from Dagur.
"Alright let's see." Hiccup begins. "I had just left Stoick with Fishlegs, and was heading to Heather and Dagur's apartment at full speed."
-Flashback-
Hiccup's POV
I slowed down as I was nearing a studio apartment in a brownstone building. From the window I could see Heather on the couch watching TV, and Dagur in the kitchen. I approached the window leading to the fire escape, and knocked on it getting Heather's attention.
Heather rushed to the window, and opened it carefully. "Phantom." She stated, and then dragged me inside by the front of my coat. "What are you doing outside! You're a wanted man, and the city is under martial law." She hissed to me.
"Long story, but I'll need you, and your brother's help." I tell her.
"Aren't you worried I'd attack you?" I ask at seeing her completely calm.
"You may call yourself a villain, but I think you're more of an anti-hero." Heather states poking me in the chest. "You forget that when I was still the leader of the Riders I saw you stop a bus whose breaks weren't functioning. A villain wouldn't have stopped to save those people."
Heather then looks back at her brother who had his back turned to us, while singing along to Karma Chameleon which I'd assume was playing from the headphones he was wearing. The pink apron he had on made me stifle a snicker.
"I'm assuming this is about the Riders being blamed for the attempted assassination on the Mayor." Heather states while grabbing a pair of earplugs from a drawer. I raise my eyebrows at that.
"Dagur's singing is horrible." She states to which I could only agree. "It gets worse when he tries to sing Cher songs so I keep these handy. You know he's gonna freak when he sees you."
Heather placed the earplugs in her ears, and then cut off her brother's music. She then pointed to the living room, and Dagur let out a very unmanly screech of surprise.
"W..Wh..Wha…What are you doing here!" He shouts, while running into the living room. "Not that you can't be here." He quickly yells to correct himself, while grabbing a duster only to begin frantically cleaning, and straightening the couch pillows. "Here sit. Sorry about the mess. Anything I could get you." Was said in such a hurry that Heather pinched the bridge of her nose in exasperation, and then hit her brother over the head with a nearby magazine.
"Hey, what was that for!" Dagur yelled.
"To get you to stop gushing about your idol, and actually listen to why he's here." Heather answered raising the magazine to give Dagur another whack.
"Alright, alright sis." Dagur said holding his hands in front of himself.
After that Dagur, and Heather listened to the events leading up to me being in their apartment.
"Eh….. " Dagur made a sound getting our attention. "Shouldn't we also get Hiccup? He's the Mayor's son after all. Wouldn't Drago go after him to get to his father?" He asked, and I just smirked. But before I could say anything Heather jumps in.
"Why do you even kidnap him all the time? It's not like it actually helps." Heather asked.
"Oh, come on sis." Dagur exclaims. "He's just so small, and cuddly."
"That is a bit disturbing." I couldn't help but mutter.
"No worries." I tell them, and separate from Toothless.
Dagur lets out another scream of surprise as I revealed my identity. "Y..You…He…Oh Thor!" He says, and promptly faints.
I look at Heather who doesn't look surprised at all.
"The little scar on your chin. Razorwhips have very good eyesight. I saw it one of those times you were kidnapped, and again when I pulled you through the window." Heather simply explains.

Astrid's POV
Dagur asked, after Hiccup finished telling us. "Why couldn't one of you have caught me? The floor was hard." He was rubbing the back of his head for emphasis.
"I didn't feel like it." Heather simply stated.
"According to you I'm small, so I didn't want to be crushed." Hiccup replied dryly earning laughter from the others.
"Is that why he still has that apron on?" I ask. At my question Dagur looks down to see that he was still wearing his frilly pink 'Kiss the cook' apron. He lets out a groan. "Really guys! That's just evil!"
"Thank you." Hiccup says, while Heather merely mentioned that as his younger sibling she was supposed to do evil things to her brother.
"Anyway, we carried you to Alvin's hideout where we collected him, and then I had to retrieve some blueprints I had left in my room at Gobber's." Hiccup stated, and then turned to Gobber. "Thank you Gobber for almost giving me a heart attack."
Gobber merely laughed, and Hiccup continued to explain. "Gobber walked in on us. The surprise was that he already knew I was Phantom."
"I have my ways." Gobber simply commented.
"What were the blueprints you needed?" Fishlegs asked as curiosity got the better of him.
I see Hiccup pull out folded pieces of paper from his coat, and lay it on the table for us to see. "This was what I have been working on since I took that computer chip."
"This is genius." Fishlegs exclaims. "You were planning to use this to take down Drago all along weren't you?"
Hiccup nods in affirmative, then Stoick finally decides to speak up again. "How can you trust his plan. Most of them ended up causing massive damage."
Hiccup merely raised an eyebrow at his father, and told him. "You're tied to a chair. You get no say."
He then turns to us. "Okay, here is what we need to do."
