Jack watched from the window as Hiccup and the others fought. It seemed to last hours until the last berserker had dropped. Jack signed with relief as he saw Hiccup heading towards the building they were in.

Jack turned to run down the stairs to meet Hiccup. As he did he spotted Astrid's expression. Anger, relief, confusion and admiration filled her eyes.

"Hey are you ok?"

Astrid's head snapped around at Jack's question.

"Yeah I am fine. I just… I just can't believe this is where Hiccup has been since he left Berk. All the things he must have been through. Didn't you hear him? How he talked about fighting people like it was a game? How being kidnapped was part of his usual routine? That is not right. Hiccup shouldn't have lived like this."

"HEY!"

Both Jack and Astrid jumped. They turned to see the girl who had helped Astrid stood behind them, glaring.

"How dare you! How dare you judge how we live! If where Hiccup had come from was better than this why did he end up here? Your Astrid right? You're the girl who pushed Hiccup too far and released Pitch. You're the reason Hiccup told his father, the reason he was disowned, the reason we had to pick him up off the streets."

The girl stopped briefly as tears fell from Astrid's eyes. The girl gave a small smile.

"But you want to know something. If not for Hiccup we would probably be worst off. Hiccup is probably one of the best things to ever happen to the Dragons. He has gone through more trials and dangers then the rest of us. Do not look down at what he has accomplished just because of the little you have seen. He is saving us."

With that the girl turned around and, just like Dagur, jumped over the railings to the floor below.

Jack stood paralyzed to the spot from the corner of his eye he could see Astrid was the same. Below they heard calls and cheers as Hiccup entered the building. At the sound Astrid dropped to her knees and Jack raced for the stairs.

Jack quickly descended the stairs and almost talked Hiccup. Almost, because apparently Hiccup had been waiting for him and was more solid then Jack realised. Wrapped in a hug Jack could fell Hiccup's chest raising and falling.

"You ok Jack?"

Worry was clear as Hiccup asked the question. Jack looked up in response and smiled at Hiccup. Hiccup physically relaxed before placing a small kiss on Jack's forehead. Jack blushed at the contact, seeing the younger male blush, Hiccup seemed to realise what he was doing and blushed himself. He heard the others chuckling and teased Hiccup about blushing.

When Hiccup and Jack separated, Astrid had come down the stairs. Her eyes showed no sign that she had been crying. Spotting her Hiccup started introductions.

"Right guys. This is Jack and Astrid.

Jack, Astrid this is Hookfang..."

Hiccup pointed to the male stood next to him. The male was wearing red top and black jeans, both had rips in them, red hair with black tips and yellow cat eyes.

That was something Jack noticed about the Dragons. They all had cat eyes like Toothless.

"This is Stormfly…"

The girl from before stood forward. She wore black leggings with a blue denim skirt her top was also a light blue. The females hair was blond with flecks of blue and her eyes were the palest blue, almost white. On her hands Jack spotted black fingerless gloves. They appeared to be made of leather and spikes stood from the knuckles.

Hiccup continued with introductions.

"This here is Meatlug…"

A girl at the back gave a small wave. She wasn't big as in fat but she was bulky. She had short brown hair tied back in a small bun. She was wearing a vest top with a brown jacket over the top, with brown jeans. Her brown eyes showed warmth and care but Jack felt something else there.

"This little guy here is Torch…"

"Hey."

Jack quickly looked down to see a small boy. Jack gasped. The boy had white hair and orange eyes. The young male was wearing white shorts and a red top.

Jack knelt down to meet the boy's eyes.

"Hey. Is your hair naturally that colour?"

The boy rolled his eyes.

"Err… Yeah it is. Why do you ask?"

Jack chuckled.

"It's just you're the first person I have met to have natural white hair from a young age like myself."

Torch looked up and noticed the colour of Jack's hair and a grin rapidly claimed the young boy's lips.

"Cool! I'm not the only one with white hair."

Jack heard Hiccup chuckle before carrying on with introductions.

"These two are Belch and Barf…"

A boy and girl walked forward. Their green hair tied back in loose ponytails. The colour of their eyes matched their hair. Pale. They both wore plain green tops and brown trousers.

"Here is Thornado…"

Another boy walked forward. This one was bulky like Meatlug but showed more muscle. He wore a blue top and shorts. He had no hair.

"And around here somewhere is Cloud Jumper. He tends to stick to himself but usually he is the first down if there is an injury. He is such a mother hen."

The Dragons chuckle at the description of Cloud Jumper.

"Come on you promised me a fight. A proper fight. So no trying to end it quickly. We will fight till we are both on the ground gasping."

Hookfang moved away from the group with those words. Jack felt worry and panic rising until he noticed Hiccup was smiling. Smiling like he was a child on Christmas morning and about to open the best gift.

"Yeah yeah I'm coming now."

The other dragons scattered to the edge. Stormfly walked over to Jack and Astrid.

"If you want the best view come up stair. You're in for a real treat. Rarely do those to fight all out like they are about to."

Jack followed and glanced backwards to see Astrid was following also. They made their way back up the stairs and stood leaning over the railings.

Hiccup and Hookfang and taken their tops off. Jack could see all of Hiccup's muscles rippling as they waited. The two males circled sizing up their opponent before standing completely still.

Jack didn't even dare blink in case of missing anything. Suddenly the two males flew at each other. Their speed was enough to make them look like blurs. Jack heard Astrid gasp and wasn't sure if it was because of the speed or the punch Hiccup just received to the jaw. Surprisingly Hiccup didn't fall backwards but seemed to ride the punch and pulled his own which hit Hookfang in the ear, sending the male flying.

Jack winced as he could feel the guy's ear ringing. That had been a sharp blow. A quiet chuckle could be heard, Jack turned towards it. Stormfly was watching the fight, her eye alight like Hiccups had been.

"This is just warm up. Wait till they start pulling attacks that will actually cause pain and leave marks."

Jack continued to watch. Now the pair seemed more occupied with bodging any attack the other threw at them. Jack heard the occasional gasp come from Astrid as they kept fighting.

Jack noticed movements became quicker, their attacks more precise. Jack had never seen anything like it. How long this continued for Jack couldn't say he was too focused on watching the movements, just remembering to breath.

Suddenly something in Hiccup's movements changed. His attacks became vicious, aiming for the throat mainly. The next gasp Jack heard came from Stormfly.

"Dammit!"

A hiss came from Stormfly before she once again jumped over the banister. Jack spotted the other dragons started to move at the sight of Stormfly. Soon the fight had become the dragons verses Hiccup.

Jack wanted to protest but felt he couldn't, instead he made a move to go down the stairs. Apparently Astrid had the same thought and also turned.

"I wouldn't if I were you."

Behind the pair stood a male. Jack couldn't help stare.

"Trust me you don't want to get mixed up in that. Just watch you will see in a minute."

Both of them turned back to the fight going on. Hiccup was now fighting all the dragons at once. He stood in the center of a circle. The other dragons continued to fight.

Jack watched as the dragons seemed to be using a pattern. One dragon would attack Hiccup. Then as Hiccup turned his attention to them, blocking and ready to attack them, another dragon would attack. It seemed to Jack they were trying to avoid Hiccup's attacks. Astrid voiced his question.

"Why do they appear to be avoiding Hiccup's attacks? It is like they are trying to distract him more than fight him."

The male glanced from the fight to her.

"That is exactly what they are doing. Distracting him. I understand you know he has split personalities."

Both nodded and waited for the older male to continue.

"Well when Hiccup is fighting he gets … how should I put it… excited? And when he does so it is easier for Pitch to influence him. With Pitch influence Hiccup's attacks become more violent and have been known to almost kill people. Not that he has done that to any of us of course. We spotted this occurrence pretty quickly before Hiccup became too strong. Right now they are trying to tire Hiccup out. This way even if Pitch is in control he can't harm anyone or go out into the streets."

The male chuckled.

"This is also the reason the Dragons fighting abilities have increased since Hiccup arrived. They had to match Hiccup's development. They developed their agility and strength but no matter how hard or long they trained Hiccup was soon faster and stronger than them all. Now they have to fight together because individually they don't stand a chance. There we go."

As the last sentence left the males mouth he jump over the railings. Jack watched as the dragons dealt a final attack towards Hiccup who blocked it and began to fall. The male who had just been talking to Jack and Astrid quickly caught Hiccup before the brunet collapsed on the floor. The dragons quickly scattered. On grabbed Hiccup's top, another ran away and quickly came back with a glass of water.

By the time Hiccup and Astrid had made their way down. Hiccup was sat down on a crate, with an empty glass in his hands. Jack gulped.

Hiccup still had a bare chest. Sweat was running down his face, neck and over his muscles. The brunet's chest was raising and falling quickly as Hiccup tried to slow his breathing. Jack then noticed the other dragons were in similar states.

Hiccup stood up.

"I'm going for a shower before I head out again."

With that Hiccup walked towards one of the many doors. The other dragons chuckled.

"Just like Hiccup to fight until he can't stand then only need a few minutes before he is up and going again. Where does he get that energy from?"

Hookfang was now sat on the crate shaking his head.

"Honestly I feel sorry for anyone who has to take part in any night activities with that guy."

Yellow eyes met Jack's. The white haired male couldn't stop a blush from spreading across his cheeks.

"W-we're not like that."

Hookfang smiled.

"Not right now you're not but soon I think. Very soon."

"Here go give this to Hiccup he forgot it again."

Just as Jack turned a towel fell into his arms. Blushing once more he quickly worked to the same door he had seem Hiccup enter. From behind him he could hear the others talking.

"I bet they'll be together by the end of the week."

"Nah knowing Hiccup it will take month."

Trying to ignore the comment Jack pushed the door open as his blushed deepened.

He then stood frozen.

In front of him stood Hiccup, with his back towards Jack but that wasn't the point. The point was Hiccup was stood in front of Jack NAKED.

The room turned out to be a large shower room you would expect to see in a prison. On one wall was baskets lined up. Hiccup had put his clothing in one.

But Jack barely registered that as he looked Hiccup's boy up and down. Freckles cover the brunet's back as if to make up leaving his chest and stomach freckle free. The freckles also seemed to claim the back of his legs. Jack tried his best not to let his eyes settle to long on Hiccup's ass but it was hard. There is was also covered in freckles but lighter than on his back. Jack just managed to snatch his eyes away as Hiccup turned around.

Hiccup jumped at the sight of Jack.

"Geez I-I didn't know you were standing there."

Hearing Hiccup stutter made Jack chuckle a little. Jack held out the towel he was holding.

"Here I was told to bring you this."

Hiccup's eyes widened before he brought his hand to meet his face.

"Oh gods how did I manage to forget it again."

Quickly Hiccup crossed the shower room to grab the towel. Jack swallowed as the brunet got closer. Desperate not to let his eyes wonder to low Jack focused on Hiccup's chest. The chest that was clear of all freckles, that rippled with every move Hiccup made.

"Like what you see?"

Jack looked up to meet Hiccup's green eyes. Blushing as he realised he had been staring.

"Oh er sorry."

Jack quickly adverted his gaze to anywhere but Hiccup. Next thing Jack heard was Hiccup chuckling.

"Well if I am honest I like the fact I caught your attention. I just didn't think I would have that sort of effect on you."

Jack met Hiccup's eyes once more to notice they flickered down before meeting his blue ones again. Without having to look down Jack realised how tight his trousers had become.

Oh crap what do I do now?

Hiccup chuckled again.

"Don't worry. I won't do anything. Thanks for the towel."

With that said Hiccup took the towel from Jack's hands and placed a small damp kiss on Jack's forehead before moving away. Jack only noticed how much warmth Hiccup was giving off as the cold air replaced the spot the brunet had just been standing in.

Jack watched as Hiccup placed the towel somewhere dry and within easy reach before walking back to the shower. Suddenly Jack had a wild idea. It was crazy but he didn't care.

After a few quick preparations Jack made his way over to Hiccup. Hiccup turned around Just before Jack got to him.

"Jack! What are you doing?"

Hiccup's eyes widened and he sounded shocked. Jack didn't stop he kept coming closer until he was right in front of Hiccup. Wrapping his arms around the brunet's waist Jack smiled.

"I'm doing exactly what I want."

With those words Jack tilted his head up a little before pushing his body up a little to meet the brunets lips.
