Hey, guys! I have another chapter for you. Even when my last part of finals are only a week away and I have so much work on my hands, I somehow find the time to write a little because it can help me relax a bit and then reading your reviews is always awesome. So thank you very much. I did a bit of experiment in this chapter (I tried to make original song so I wouldn't have problems with copyrights), so I hope that I did a good job with lyrics and I hope that you will enjoy it as much as I did when I created them :) So I hope that you will enjoy this chapter and see you all until next chapter :)


"So you and Astrid finally talked about your feelings?" Heather asked when a silent between them began to be unbearable. They were standing in front of the hall for a long while watching as the snow was falling from the sky. There was not a too much work in the village when the devastating winter was away only a few days, so the village spent their days in the hall.

She saw how Hiccup's cheeks reddened and she chuckled a little. "Oh come on, I am your younger sister, you don't need to be shy in front of me."

Hiccup chuckled at that and told her what happened yesterday. Heather was listening to him with a smile and she felt happy for both of them.

"You are perfect for each other, you know that right?" Heather asked and he looked at her. "You think?"

Heather chuckled as she came closer to him. "I know Astrid my whole life and I never saw her this happy for a long time. As for you, well, those few weeks were enough for me to know that you can make her happy and that you care deeply for her. And besides you are my brother, why would she want someone else when she can have you?" She said and both of them chuckled.

"So, Heather..." Hiccup started and she looked at him.

"Yeah?"

"Can you describe our parents?" He asked and she smiled.

"Gladly. The first thing you need to know. Never eat our mother's meatballs..."


Taramis and Cami were lying in each other embrace for a long while, when a snow started falling. They stood up and Taramis frowned.

"Devastating winter is near, how could I miss that?" Taramis said to himself and Cami chuckled.

"Well, you didn't have too much time to watch the sky, in recent weeks."

"Cloudjumper," Taramis growled and Cloudjumper came to him. "Take dragons back to the nest. Endure winter there with the king."

He gave him a weird look and Taramis chuckled. "Don't worry I will be fine, Cami, Hiccup and Mala will be with me. You know that I would never hurt either of them."

"Willingly? No. Under influence? Yes. As every dragon." Cloudjumper growled and Taramis knew he was right.

"But we both know that even under influence you would never hurt your mate, as every dragon," Cloudjumper added with a smile.

As if Cami understood what were they talking about she came to stand next to Taramis and entwined her fingers with his.

"Don't worry, Cloudjumper. I am not going to let him go from my sight." Cami said and Cloudjumper chuckled while Taramis looked offended. Cloudjumper then bowed his head a little to them and roared to dragons behind him. Soon he was in the air and dragons followed him. Cami and Taramis waved them as they flew away. Soon they turned to each other as Cami put her arms around his neck and he put his hand on her waist. They lean to each other and closed their eyes, only to be interrupted by two squawks. Their eyes shot open as they look at their right. There stood two Nadders, one red and one blue.

Taramis rolled his eyes and introduced Cami to them. "Cami, the blue one is Bliss and the red one is Blaze. I helped them when hunters killed their parents when they were little. Bliss and Blaze this is Cami my..." He suddenly stopped and looked at her. She chuckled and finished. "His girlfriend or mate as you call it."

Two Nadders suddenly chirped and ran to them. They pinned them to the ground, Blaze on Taramis while Bliss on Cami. Two teens laughed at their antics and petted them to which they reacted with purring.

"So are you staying?" Taramis asked after a moment and they chirped.

"Of course we are staying." Blaze said and Bliss added. "You are our father, remember that. We will not let you go so easily this time."

Bliss and Blaze then helped them stood up and together they walked into the village. At first, they walked casually but then smirk came to two Nadders. They nudge both teens from the side which send them to the ground with a yelp. Taramis ended up under Cami and they both rolled their eyes and blushed. Cami stood up and helped Taramis stand up. Two Nadders tried to look innocent but that doesn't mean that Taramis and Cami don't get their revenge. Taramis changed into his dragon form and jumped on Bliss pinning her down, she was surprised by that and squawked for her brother. He tried to get to her but Cami jumped in front of him and scratched him on his neck which causes him to crash down with a purr.

Meanwhile, Bliss and Taramis were rolling on the ground, enjoying their game, while Cami continued scratching Blaze neck with a smile.

Now, this was Taramis she knew back then. He would always take a chance to play with other dragons and she was happy to see that he was still enjoying it.

They played for a while and then they continued their way into the village and snow was already covering their hair. They were surprised to see Hiccup and Heather standing in front of the great hall and they didn't like their sheepish expressions. They came to them with Bliss and Blaze behind them.

"Fine, Hiccup you want to say something that neither of us doesn't like or something awkward so spill it," Cami said as they stood in front of them.

"Well, maybe you should both sit down while I tell you what I want." Hiccup said and they raised an eyebrow at him but Taramis sat down nonetheless. Cami sat down on his lap because she would not be much comfortable sitting on the freezing ground.

When Hiccup started to tell them about the history of Haddock family, while Heather added something here and there, they didn't understand what they tried to say. But when they got to the part where Brynjar defended silver dragon against his own father, Taramis's eyes widened. Cami felt how he went stiff and truth to be told she was shocked too. Taramis was truly Haddock? Now, that was truly something.

"What is more," Hiccup said as he finished to tell them about his and Taramis's true origin. "My father wants to accept us both to this village. To his family."

Taramis quickly stood up and if Cami didn't have quick reflexes she would end up on the ground. He engulfed both his cousins into the hug, which startled all of them. Hiccup then hugged him back and Heather too, a bit more reluctantly because she was surprised by this.

"That would be the best thing that happened to me after my village got destroyed," Taramis said and Cami smiled behind them.

"So, I was not the best thing that happened to you?" Cami asked with a huff and they all laughed.

"There's one more thing," Heather said and they looked at her.

"Oh, right. Cami, Taramis I know that this was already too much to take in, but this is something you both need to decide." Hiccup said and they looked at him.

"Let me guess, I must take Cami as my wife to save her from Meatheads," Taramis said as he crossed his arms.

"Yeah," Hiccup said as he scratched back of his neck.

"Well then," Taramis said as he knelt down in front of Cami, which surprised them. "Camicazi of Bog'Burglars Island. We know each other for a long time. We had a few problems in our relationship but we always overcome it with our love. I could never imagine one day without your smile and your beautiful laugh from this day on and because of that I want to ask you. Will you give me the honor and the joy of being your husband?"

Cami had her hand over her mouth and tears in her eyes. She jumped on him and pinned him down and kissed him. Hiccup and Heather laughed at them because they knew that everything will be better from this day on, while two Nadders curiously watched their 'parents'.

"I think that we can take that as yes." Heather said with laugh and Hiccup nodded with a smile.


"Are you sure about this?" Ryker asked his brother as they sailed into a thick mist while they stood on their flagship escorted by several Drago's ships.

"Yes, brother. I believe that Taramis convinced our father to hide the eye in the Isle of mist." Viggo said as he looked around. They were engulfed by a thick fog and if their ships didn't hold close to each other, they would surely lose each other. They soon saw ship wreckages all over the place and Viggo could feel the fear of his men, but also Drago's men. Everyone knew that the Isle of mist was not a place to toy with.

"What are you planning to do, Viggo?" Voice of Eret came to them as he walked towards them.

"Tell your men to search every ship, every corner, every box. I am sure that this is the place where Taramis hid the Dragon eye." Viggo said and Eret raised an eyebrow at him. He then walked away and Viggo nodded to his brother. Ryker nodded back and walked away after Eret. Viggo then walked to the side of the ship and took out his dagger which was covered by his clan markings. He moved his hand over the edge of the ship and let the dagger fall into the water.

"I know that you will get this message, Taramis. I am waiting for you and I hope that you are not scared to come." Viggo said to himself as he was watching the water below them.

Dagger slowly reached the bottom of the sea awakening the dragon sleeping there. The Dragon looked at the dagger and then he looked up. He growled as he took the dagger to his mouth and started swimming away.


"So are you ready?" Hiccup asked as they stood in front of the door.

"As much as I will ever be," Taramis said and they could tell that he was nervous. Bliss nudges his hand and squawked. Taramis smiled and petted her head.

"I don't know if it's a good idea to take these two, thought," Heather said and Blaze huffed.

"I don't care. We are going with you, with or without your approval."

Taramis translated them what he said and Cami with Hiccup laughed while Heather was a bit nervous how the other tribes can react. She takes a step to the door and opened them. She walked through the door with Hiccup behind her. Cami and Taramis walked beside each other and as they passed the door she grabbed his hand and entwine their fingers. She felt how he tightened his hold on her hand. The murmurs started to go through the great hall but soon died down when two Nadders walked behind the couple. Stoick and Valka smiled when they saw the teens in front of them and Bertha walked towards them. Heather walked to her family and Hiccup went to stand next to Taramis.

"Did he asked?" Bertha asked her daughter and she nodded while Taramis gulped.

"And did you agreed?" She asked again and Cami nodded again. Suddenly Bertha face beamed and turn to Stoick and nodded. Bertha then took her daughter from them and went to stand on the side, leaving two boys and dragons in the middle of the hall. Stoick stood up and said.

"Some of you already know about those boys." Murmurs started again but not from Berkians but mostly from Meatheads and Bog'Burglas. "My tribe was already expecting this so I will make it official to everyone else. Hiccup, as your father who never thought that I will ever see you again after my mistake when you was only a baby, I couldn't be more happy and proud to welcome you back into your tribe and your family. Welcome home, son. Welcome home, the heir of the Berk."

When Stoick finished the hall erupted in cheers and shouting. The only ones who wasn't cheering were Meatheads and Bog'Burglas council who were still angry at Berkians. Stoick then signalled for a silent and everyone stop cheering. Stoick face saddened as he started.

"Taramis, a boy who is so mysterious to everyone here because you can turn yourself into a dragon and communicate with other dragons. Your first impression when you destroyed the door into this very hall was not a good one. But Hiccup told me everything about you and I know that you meant no harm to anyone. You only tried to protect the girl you love and that is something admirable. Hiccup told me what you were forced to endure through your life. When you was a small child, your clan was destroyed in one swift attack from a madman Drago Bludvist."

Everyone in the hall gasped and start to murmur as they knew that madman and they watched the boy who was facing the ground with closed eyes and he was trembling. Mala needed to calm down her people because she figured out what was Chief trying to do. She understood that those memories were painful for Taramis but she also knew that it needed to be said.

"Your father Brynjar Haddock was killed as he tried to defend you, his son, from the mad man."

As the chief said this everyone was shocked. There were several rumours about Haddock family but no one believes them.

"Your aunt Eira Haddock saved you from that madman and tried to raise you alone but Drago again killed someone you hold dear."

This shocked everyone even more because they thought that Eira Haddock was killed by dragons.

"But you found my son and you became friends. You met Camicazi of Bogs and you two fell in love with each other, but you were torn from them for several years. I respected my brother Brynjar deeply and I would hate to see his only boy alone in this world. So I want to welcome you in our tribe with open arms. I want to welcome you into the Haddock family again. Welcome on Berk, nephew. Welcome in the family, Taramis Haddock."

With that everyone cheered even Bogs council while Meatheads fumed, except one. Thuggory had a smile on his face as he silently cheered too, unlike his father he knew enough about that boy because when he was with Cami she sometimes talked about him.


Dragon from Isle of mist swam towards the King's nest as fast as e could. He promised Taramis that if someone would enter the Isle of Mist he would let him know. However, he had no idea where he could be so he hoped that king would know where is his protege. He swam through an underground cave and soon he resurfaces near the king.

"Welcome, my dear Submaripper. How can I help you?" King asked as he opened his one eye to look at his guest. Submaripper bowed his head, put the dagger on the ground and said.

"Hunters are searching for the dragon eye. They entered the Isle of Mist to find it and I fear that they could succeed. I need to warn Taramis about it, do you know where I could find him, your highness?"

"Is it what I think it is?" King asked as he saw the dagger in front of Submaripper.

"I don't know what you mean, your highness," Submaripper said as he saw that the King was watching the dagger. "This dagger woke me up from my slumber and then I noticed hunters."

"This, my dear submaripper," King said as he stood up and came closer to the dragon. "Is Viggo's dagger. And I doubt that he just threw his dagger into the sea without reason. It seems that he knew about you and he wants to lure out our friend."

"So, what are we going to do, your highness?" The dragon asked.

"We will send this dagger to Taramis," King said and Submaripper looked at the big dragon.

"So you know where he is?"

"Yes, he is in the place where he can be finally happy," King said and softly roared after that. A young Scuttleclaw came towards the king and bowed his head.

"Did you call me my king?" He asked and the king nodded. "Yes, my dear. I wanted to ask if you know the Island of Berk."

"I do, my king. Why?" Scuttleclaw asked.

"I need you, to take this dagger to Taramis." Kind said and Scuttleclaw's eyes showed worry. "Taramis is on dragon killing Island, my king?"

"Oh, I think that they are not dragon killing Island anymore. So will you do that for me? You are the fastest dragon here and I want you back before winter will hit us hard."

"I will be back as fast as the wind," Scutteclaw said took the dagger from Submaripper and was ready to fly away but king stopped him.

"Wait a minute, little one. Tell him that Viggo is looking for a dragon eye and that this dagger was brought by his guardian of the mist."

"As you say, my king." Young dragon said and flew away.

"Will you stay for a winter?" The king asked as he turned to the Submaripper.

"No, but thank you for the offer, your highness. I will head back to the Isle of Mist so I can help Taramis if he needed my help." Submaripper said. He then bowed his head and went back to the water, while king went to his sleep.


Dragons in Helheim gate were confused by their queen's antics. She didn't send any dragons on raids after that boy left. She wasn't angry at any of her dragons, she doesn't move from her lava spot and they could hear her muttering to herself. They really didn't know what was happening with the queen but truth to be told they were happy that their queen was more peaceful. She was not peaceful since she lost her friend. Maybe she would be again as she was back then.


The celebration of accepting two teens into the village was loud and lively. Everyone celebrated, ate and drank. Mostly drank. Everyone except Mogadon who was still pissed off on that boy. Bertha announced that her daughter was already engaged to Taramis. Bog's council was at first shouting at her about what was she thinking but that was until Taramis said that he is willing to offer to her mother as bride-price for Cami, her body weight in gold and that was even more than Mogadon offered for Cami. It baffled everyone, even Cami, Bertha and Mala. Hiccup was surprised too, but he knew that Taramis didn't lie. However, he didn't know where he could get so much gold. But then Stoick even said that if Cami would be wed for Taramis it would mean an alliance between Berk and Bog'Burglars, and that was something that Bog's council wouldn't throw out of the window. And also that gold would help their clan immeasurably. Mogadon immediately protested and said if that boy can prove that he can pay so much gold for her. They were even more surprised when Taramis took out a pouch from his pant pocket and throw it to the Mogadon, who gasped at the sight of the full pouch of gold. Even Stoick didn't wear so much gold with him when he was visiting other Islands. After that was settled everyone started to congratulate two teens and drinking contests begun.

However, Taramis still felt weird in this large hall full of people because he already forgot how to feel relaxed in human society. He sat in front of closed hall doors, Bliss and Blaze lying behind him carefully watching everyone. Taramis saw teens sitting behind one table casually talking. He saw Astrid and Cami talking to each other and he could see the small blush on their faces. He also noticed that Astrid was sitting shoulder to shoulder with Hiccup and he smiled. He looked towards his uncle and aunt and found out that they were watching him. He quickly looked down as if the ground got suddenly interesting.

"What are you doing, my boy?" He heard Mala's voice and he looked towards her. She was standing near him smile on her face.

"Avoiding people," Taramis said as he petted Bliss paw. She put her head beneath his arm so he could pet her on her head. "Why? Does it looks like something else?"

"Why are you doing this, Taramis?" Mala asked and he shook his head. "I am trying to adapt to this Mala. I am trying, but it is hard."

"I can only imagine what are you going through," Mala said as she nervously scratched her arm.

"Why are you so nervous, Mala?" Taramis asked because he noticed her nervousness.

"Nothing, I am just tired. It's been a long day," Mala said and Taramis nodded even when he knew that it was maybe a noon. She walked out but she was moving kind of weird and Taramis furrowed his brows. But another person came to him. "Can I join you?" He looked up and saw his aunt Valka walking towards him.

"I... I guess..." Taramis stuttered but quickly added. "They will not hurt you, but the floor is quite cold."

"I don't mind cold," Valka said as she sat next to him. Blaze at first was watching her but then he went to watch the rest of the hall.

"It looks like aunt Valka tries to break the ice." Snotlout said to other teens and they all watched how Valka and Taramis were talking to each other. They watched them in silent and after a while, they saw the smile on both of their faces.

"Come on guys," Astrid said as she stood up. "We are going to help her to bring him into society." Cami beamed at that idea and Hiccup smiled too. They walked towards them and when they were close they heard Taramis's laugh.

"Can we join?" Astrid asked and when Taramis look at them in bewilderment. He only nodded as they settled down around them. Heather, Hiccup, Astrid sat next to Valka while Cami sat on Taramis's lap and others sat on other side or in front of them. Bliss and Blaze then smiled and went to sleep because their job was done at the moment.

Meanwhile, Throk came to his queen and saw that she was watching Taramis. "When are you going to tell him, my queen?" He asked when he was close to her.

"I don't know how should I tell him," Mala answered without looking at him. "He has his own clan and family now. Why would he need me?"

"That doesn't mean that he doesn't need you, my queen." Throk tried to convince her.

"Maybe, Throk. I just hope that they will succeed where we failed."

Valka walked away when she saw that teens got along with Taramis. She came to his husband and he lovingly smiled at her to which she returned that smile and kissed him.

Cami smiled at the sight in front of her. Astrid and Hiccup were touching their fingers as they were sitting on the ground. She turned to Taramis and saw in his eyes that he was utterly happy.

"What are you thinking about?" She asked him as she placed her back on his chest. He turned to her and his smile widened. He caressed her braid and said to her. "You know, everything has changed and yet, I am more me than I have ever been."

Her smile widened as she leant down and their lips met in a passionate kiss. Astrid and Hiccup smiled at them while twins and Snotlout rolled their eyes. Heather and Fishlegs glanced at each other before they averted their gaze a blush was creeping on their cheeks.

"All right! Who wants to start singing, ladies?" Gobber suddenly shouted and everyone groaned. But Hiccup got an idea he smirked at Taramis, who ended up his kiss with Cami when Gobber shouted, and Taramis glared at him like if he was silently saying Don't even try. His smirk widened when he shouted.

"Taramis!" Everyone looked at him and then on blushing boy. Cami knew what Hiccup tried to do so she smirked too. She joined to Hiccup and both of them were now shouting his name.

"You are with him?!" Taramis exclaimed as he looked at Cami. But soon Mala started to shout his name. Vikings raised their eyebrows at them and soon Mala's people were shouting his name, too. Astrid saw what are they trying to achieve, so she started shouting too. Twins joined, well because others were shouting and they love to shout too. Cami stood up as she kept shouting his name. Taramis's eyes widened when he saw that Chief and his wife started to shouting too and soon almost everyone was shouting his name. He stood up and tried to back away. But he was stopped by Bliss's head and she nudges him forward. He gulped, even Bliss was on their side. Hiccup then stood up and with Cami, they grabbed Taramis by his arms and dragged him near Gobber and the Viking band.

"Ya, laddie. Don't be afraid. Show us what you can do." Gobber said and backed down along with Hiccup and Cami. Shouts stopped and Taramis looked around. Everyone was looking on him and he visibly gulped. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. That calmed him down and he opened his eyes and smiled lovingly on Cami who smiled back. He turned around towards the band and he came to the woman who holds the harp.

"Can I borrow your harp?" He asked and she gave him her harp with a smile. He took it and thanked her as he made his way back. The great hall fell into a deadly silent and Taramis a cough a little. He started playing an unknown melody and everyone listened to him. After a moment he started singing along that melody.

Laughter in your eyes was my whole world,

Then you left and I didn't know what I should do next.

They say men don't cry - just in fairy tales,

But when I saw you leave,

I fell to my knees,

And started to cry.

At the breakfast, I had only dirt and dust,

And I saw only endless path,

I was scared and alone,

And I lost my taste for life.

Everyone watched the boy in bewilderment at his soft voice and sadness filled their heart. Even Mogadon was surprised by boy's voice. Cami watched him with tears in her eyes while Astrid came closer to Hiccup and hugged him tightly around his waist. He looked at her and smiled and she smiled back. He put his arm around her waist too and watched how Taramis continued singing. Unbeknown to them Ansfrida and Asmund came to Stoick and Valka and pointed towards Hiccup and Astrid. Both parents were smiling at their children.

Then I suddenly realised,

So different paths lead to our goals

And many times we can fail to see.

My memories of you rushed to me,

How I have met you full of strength

So wild and great,

Hiccup told me that I was insane,

When I made your heart as my goal.

At first, we were like fire and ice,

And we ended up with more than friendship.

We went through good and bad,

And that first, mostly at night,

And when I started to understand the basic things,

It was only because of you,

And now when I stand again in front of you

I just want to say that I never lied to you,

And not at all when I swore to you:

I will stay behind you,

Through good and bad,

Through the heat or the frost,

Still we stand, our souls entwined,

Disposed to stand the test of time.

Taramis stopped singing and the hall fell into deadly silent once again. But that silent was interrupted by lonely clapping. Astrid was first who started clapping and soon the whole hall erupted into cheers and clapping. Cami ran to Taramis and hugged him, but her force knocked the to ground. Hiccup looked around and saw that even Mogadon was clapping. But their cheers were interrupted when the door into the great hall shot open. Vikings saw a weird dragon standing there. It was something between Deadly Nadder and Hideous Zippleback and they never saw that kind of dragon.

Bliss and Blaze squawked on the dragon and he squawked back. Cami finally helped Taramis to stand up and Taramis was surprised by dragon standing in the door.

"Wind?" He asked as he walked to him.

"What is he doing here?" Taramis heard Finn's voice who walked to Taramis with his crutches. "They never travel this far."

Taramis made his way towards the dragon, leaving others behind. He saw that Wind was curiously watching him and then Taramis realised that he didn't saw him in his human form. So he changed his form and soon Vikings back away a little when there was a silver dragon in front of them.

"Taramis, forgive me, I didn't recognise you in your human form." Wind said as he bowed his head a little.

"It's alright, Wind. You had no way to know." Taramis softly growled. "What brings you here?"

Wind didn't answer that question just throw dagger from his paw towards Taramis. Taramis surprised by this changed his form and knelt down.

"King of dragons sent you this dagger and said that Viggo is looking for the dragon eye and that this dagger was brought by one of your guardians of the mist." Wind growled and Taramis frowned. He took the dagger to his hand and stood up.

"What's happening, Taramis?" Hiccup asked and Taramis turned to him. When Cami and Hiccup saw that dagger, they gasped. It surprised everyone around them to hear their gasps.

"What's bad with that dagger?" Snotlout asked and Hiccup shook his head.

"Because it's Viggo's dagger." Hiccup said to which everyone went stiff.

"What does that snake wants?" Cami nearly growled and Taramis shook his head.

"I don't know. But it's his message for me. He wants to meet."

"Meet?!" Hiccup nearly shouted. "Is he serious?"

"Yeah, he must be stupid to think that you would come," Cami said as she crossed her arms. However, Taramis didn't say anything and Hiccup frowned.

"You are not planning to go, right?"

"I have no other choice," Taramis said as he looked at them. "He sent this dagger to me by one of my guardians which were watching the dragon eye for me. I can't allow them to reclaim that thing."

"I see that you are not going to change your mind so I am coming with you." Hiccup said and Cami quickly added. "And you would be dumb if you think that I would let you face him alone."

"Hey, count me in," Astrid said and Snotlout took a step forward with a smirk. "Me too."

"If you go after Viggo, we go after Viggo too," Tuffnut said and his sister sniggered while other rolled their eyes on his words. "I usually don't agree with him but now I agree with him."

"I guess I can help you too," Fishlegs said.

"And without me, you are not going anywhere," Heather said. "I must watch my brother and cousins so they wouldn't do something stupid.

"I am going with you too," Finn said but then Taramis immediately protested. "No, you are not. You are not in a condition to fly a dragon."

"Taramis is right, uncle," Astrid said and Finn wanted to say something back but he was stopped when Ansfrida put her hand on his shoulder.

"Guys, we are going to fly towards the Isle of Mist, how do you want to follow us?" Hiccup asked.

"Duh, we already have a dragon," Tuffnut said.

"And you two will show us how to befriend dragons so we can go with you," Astrid said pointing on Taramis and Hiccup. They looked at each other and scratched their neck.

"Yeah, we will try." Hiccup said.
