All the dragons moved to the back of the cave were it was very dark; however Hiccup found that he could see perfectly fine just like the whole pen was illuminated.
"Okay now that we are all here are you going to tell me how you got that huge cut on your back?" said Stormfly with concern.

"Oh yeah", Hiccup remembered, it seemed he forgot with the adrenalin rush of the fight. "Well I stood in-between Toothless and my da... Stoik, then as we started to walk away he swung his axe at me and it cut down my back" Hiccup explained while looking at his back which had now stopped bleeding but was now very painful.

"It looks really painful, are you sure you are ok?" asked Meatlug.

"I think I should be, anyway I have Toothless to look after me" he said smiling at Toothless.

"We are here for you if you need anything also" Stormfly said smiling at Toothless and Hiccup, "we owe you after you killed the Red Death and freed us all" She added.

Hiccup smiled at both the women and said "thank you so much for your help".

"If you need any help just ask any dragon and they will be very willing to help" said Meatlug.

"Thank you both" Toothless said, "Come on Hiccup we need to look at that wound" he added

Stormfly and Meatlug started making their way to the door until Hiccup asked "Wait, how did you know it was me when you saw me?".

"Your eyes gave it away, they are very distinctive, and your scent" said Stormfly as she looked at Hiccup in a provocative way.

"Also we saw you run out of your house yesterday morning as a half dragon" Explained Meatlug as she chuckled at Stormfly.

They both moved out of the pen and left Hiccup and Toothless alone. Toothless moved closer to Hiccup and started to lick the wound on his back.

"OW" Hiccup winced in pain, then it subsided, he could not feel the pain anymore and started to purr in the relief he felt, "Thank you Toothless it feels so much better" he said through the pleasure.

"I can't believe that da.. Stoik did that to me" Hiccup said still shocked at the incident, "and why did Astrid tell him were we were?" he added.

"Hiccup just listen to me, Stoik is still your farther, he did not know what he was doing he is just confused, I know he looked into your eyes, he must have a feeling it is you he just needs a bit more evidence" Toothless explained to him to try and give him some hope that Stoik might recognise him, "as for Astrid I have no idea why she did what she did, we shall have to find out later" Toothless Added.

"Hiccup we might have to leave the island for a while to let things calm down, but we can leave that as an option, unfortunately I cannot fly without you on my back." He explained sadly.

"Actually you can bud, I was going to save it until Snoggletog but this seems like a perfect time to tell you", Hiccup said with a smile on his face, "I had been working on an automatic tail for you and finished it, I just need to get it out of the forge, but I can't with everyone on alert", he explained while looking at toothless shocked expression.

"Maybe I can help with that" a voice came from the corner, the two dragons spun round and saw a small terrible terror smiling at them.

Toothless was became very excited at the fact of being able to fly anytime he liked but he was also exited that he could teach hiccup to fly and look at the bliss he will experience by flying by his own strength.

"Would you" hiccup asked.

"certainly" the terror replied, "It is the least I can do for the person who saved us, were can I find your invention?" he asked

"on my desk in the forge" Hiccup explained

"Okay me and my friends will bring it here" he replied

"Thank you very much" Hiccup and Toothless said simultaneously. With that he left the pen and made his way to the forge to get Toothlesses new tail fin.

10 minutes later the terror came back with a couple of other Terrors and with the tail fin in there mouth they laid it down in front of hiccup, he beamed a large smile to them and said "thank you very much, I owe you one"

"You owe me nothing" he said and with that he left.

Toothless looked at the tail and saw that it was the same colour as his scaled apart from a ring that attached the fin to his existing tail, it was silver. "Do you like it? I thought you might want a bit of bling" Hiccup said with a smile on his face.

Toothless became extremely excited and ran over to Hiccup and nuzzled him in thanks, Hiccup was purring with happiness and said, "come on I will help you put it on".

Toothless smiled at Hiccup and presented his tail to him. It took about an hour to remove his old tail fin and put the new one on.

Toothless flexed it to see if it worked and it did, "Thank you so much Hiccup".

They both smiled at each other until Hiccup broke the science by saying "Let's go to sleep bud, I think we are going to need it for tomorrow"

"Okay" Toothless agreed. Hiccup went over to the edge of the pen and lay down on his side with a wince of pain from the wound, Toothless moved behind him and lay beside him curling his wings over in a protective fashion, they fell into a deep sleep.
