Aries walked up the stairs and pushed the door to Hiccups room open. Hiccup was sitting hugging Toothless while the dragon purred loudly. When the door opened Hiccup, and Toothless turned and stared at the three intruders.
"Hi Dad, Asta...Aries? What are you doing here." Hiccup asked, tilting his head ever so slightly.
"I've come to help you. I want to right my wrongs." She explained. "Drink this and you'll turn back into a dragon."
"What do you mean right your wrongs?" Hiccup asked tilting his head.
"Don't worry about it."
Hiccup stared at the vial the woman handed him, then back to her. Nodding he pulled the top off the vial and swallowed it. Pulling back he gaged before groaning. HIs whole body tingled all over before his body erupted in overwhelming burn.
Toothless watched in horror, as his mate writhed in pain. The teen screamed before falling silent. Toothless nudged him in an attempt to wake him up. Turning his attention away from Hiccup he growled angrily at Aries.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" He growled. He knew it wouldn't help but yelling seemed to help a it.
"Now we wait. He's fine, he'll wake in a while. Stoick, Asta we should leave. Toothless will be getting very possessive if we don't"
Toothless was very happy that the three left. Grabbing the teen he pulled him against him, and cuddled against him.

Ember and Sora ran through the forest, trying to find there way home. It was considerably harder when you were a dense forest, 2. had no clue where they were, and 3. were injured.
Sora had got caught on his right wing while he was trying to help his brother. The dragons wing was being dragged at his side unfortunately leaving a trial right to them. Ember though hadn't been as lucky. The first attack had caught him. Astrid had thrown the ax down on the dragons tail cutting it off. The two had tried to protect each other but it had only served to get them hurt more.
"Ember c'mon," Sora whispered crawling into a small hole. Ember nodded and ran into the whole beside his brother.
"I want mommy and daddy." Ember whined pushing against his brothers side.
"I do to."
"You know you can't hide." Astrids rang from somewhere in front of the whole. Sora, and Ember could see her, and they hoped to every god out there she didn't. Unfortunately she did.
Lifting her blood soaked ax she threw it as hard as she cold at the two.
-APPERENTLYIAMALINE-
A loud shriek woke Hiccup, causing him to let out his own cry. Jumping up he growled and looked around. The cry that had ultimately woke him caused him to be a little on edge but he soon shook it off when he looked around. He was in his room next to Toothless. Any remaining edginess was washed away the moment he heard Toothlesses cry, "Hiccup it worked!" Hiccup stared at Toothless, then down at himself. Sure enough instead of seeing his normal body he saw his black dragon body.
Hiccup looked at Toothless exitedly. Jumping up he tackled Hiccup, and nizzled him affectionaltly. "It worked I'm back, I'm back!"
"Yes it did!" The dragon licked Hiccup happily. "We need to find Sora, and Ember!"
Hiccup nodded, and the two jumped out the window, only to be greated by Sora running into the Berk, a train of blood following him. Hiccup-having him mother instics kick in full force, ran to meet his baby.
"Mommy! Mommy! Ember!" Sora cried as he ran to meet his parents.
"Sora, love, whats wrong?" Hiccup asked licking his sons head.
"She came at us...she got him. She got him!"
"She? who's she?" Toothless growled.
"Astrid!"
Hiccup had never felt so angry. his vision went red. Anger, and sadness filled him. Hiccup let a pained roar before running into the forest at full speed. Toothless watched Hiccup run, before pushing Sora to softer ground. Once he got Sora settled around, he would go after Hiccup.
-APPERENTLYIAMALINE-
Hiccup ran as fast as possible. It seemed as if anger fueled him, driving him, and pushing him to go faster. The stench of blood filled the air. Hiccup followed the harsh scent, and trail of blood till he came to a small den that had the strongest smell. Hiccup slowed to a walk as he peered into the den.
Hiccup gasped in horror, as he spotted the black figure of his son, in the pool of blood. Crawling in as far as he could he nudged Ember softly in an attempt to get him up. The human part of him knew Ember was already gone, but the dragon in him wanted to stay with him in hopes that he would get up.
"Ember?"
Nothing.
"Ember?"
Still nothing.
Hiccup sat calling to his son for more than 2 hours. He was finally pulled out of his 'trance' when Toothless came and nudged his side. "Hiccup he's gone." The larger dragon whined.
"He can't be." Hiccup whimpered. He knew he had to snap out of it. He would have time to morn his son later. "How's Sora."
"His wings going to be messed up. I don't think he's going to fly very well, or at all. But he'll live."
Hiccup nodded. "Well then lets go hunting."
