RECAP: The entirety of Berk officially declared their intentions to search for what they consider a viking in the making, Morgan, somebody who reflects Hiccup but has slowly built his way up to the point that the Alpha of the Dragons looks at him like a close friend. On the other hand, Morgan has pledged to not be found for efficiency and effectiveness reasons.

After the major gathering that occured at the docks, it was eventually agreed on by everybody that they start a huge search party that would extend to as much of Berk as they could possibly search. Everybody walked back from the docks to the arena afterwards, with those vikings who didn't have their own dragons searching entirely on the ground, which ALSO included the steepest of the lands. Hiccup didn't lose hope, he knew that Morgan was out there, secure and hopefully warm. He saw potential in the young man, and he'd be damned if he was just going to instantly come to the conclusion that he simply fell off the docks. There was an explanation for everything, and what Tuffnut said to Hiccup back at the docks WASN'T it. After Tuffnut made his way from the crowd, he walked back to the village and started contemplating whether or not Morgan had actually survived; if he did, then he'd still be determined to duel him. If he didn't, then his work would be accomplished. He felt worried about Snotlout exposing him because of the fact that there was uncertainty about what would be done. If everyone believed Snotlout then anything could of happened to Tuffnut; the dragons could have killed him. He does have that aspect of his personality where he sometimes tries to get into trouble to the point of potential imprisonment, but getting killed is a different story for him. What he doesn't know is that even if everyone knew it was Tuffnut who pushed Morgan off of the docks, they'd still let him live in the hopes that Morgan would re-emerge one day to give Tuffnut the most satisfying form of payback. This had all occured as everybody started walking back to the village after Hiccup announced a search party to find Morgan. If they weren't successful, then they'd have no choice but to confirm the fate everybody dreads; death. But they'd still have that one glimpse of hope that he'd emerge to give Tuffnut a taste of his own medicine.

***THE ARENA IS FILLED WITH ALL THE DRAGON RIDERS WHO'RE CONTRIBUTING TO THE SEARCH, WHILST THE GROUND SEARCHERS ARE STANDING OUTSIDE THE ARENA, 1 HOUR AFTER EVERYONE GATHERED AT THE DOCKS, AS IT NEARS THE END OF THE DAY***

Ruffnut joined everyone at the arena with Barf and Belch without her brother as the search was about to commence. It was expected Tuffnut wouldn't turn up, because why would he want to help look for the one person he despises? The searchers with their dragons were as followed; Toothless and Hiccup, Stormfly and Astrid, Meatlug and Fishlegs, Hookfang and Snotlout (although he had something else in mind). Hiccup made his way into the middle of the arena as everybody stood besides their dragon.

"Astrid," Hiccup said, looking at her. "You and Stormfly will take the village"

Astrid nodded, but she needed specific details.

"So you want me to actually look in the huts themselves?" she asked, confused.

"Yeah, why wouldn't you? you can do a birds eye view of the village before you do though, just in case" he added.

Astrid reluctantly nodded at his comment.

"Didn't think I'd ever see the day where you'd be instructing me, Hiccup" she laughed.

Stormfly lowered her head to Astrid's side, with Astrid stroking her head as she talks to Hiccup.

"Y-forget it, let's just continue on" he muttered to himself. "Ruff, do you wanna go with Astrid or?" he asked, toning his voice down a bit as he faced Ruffnut with Barf and Belch.

"I think I'll do the surrounding water, Hiccup" she said, sounding pretty normal for once.

"Alright, just be careful you don't fall off, the water's freezing around here" he replied, nodding with a smile.

He sighed once he realised that he had to assign Snotlout's area.

"Snotlout, you take the forests" he said.

Snotlout saw this as an opportunity to make a quick visit to Morgan at his hiding spot, and so accepted the assigned location with enthusiasm.

"You've got it, wait till I find this little chirp and then I'll be coool, yeaaah" Snotlout said, with Hookfang sending his head slowly into the side of Snotlout, sending the viking to the left a bit.

Hiccup didn't bother to respond to him because all he'd come out with in the end is one of the two words; coward or hesitant.

"Fishlegs, you're better off just uh...joining Ruff since you've been flying over the water more often than usual in the past few days, so uh..yeah do that" Hiccup said.

Fishlegs nodded at the pledge.

"Hope I can find him, he brought peace into my mind" Fishlegs said, standing next to Meatlug, sounding broken in his voice.

"We will, don't worry" Hiccup replied. "Well then, all of you best start flying on your dragons, me and uh, Toothless will prepare ourselves. Let's find him and bring him to safety" Hiccup said, pointing at the exit tunnel at the arena.

Everyone's dragon started walking with their vikings to the exit as Toothless and Hiccup stayed inside the arena. Astrid stopped, as did Stormfly, to have a brief talk with Hiccup.

"Hiccup, I think it's best if you just prepare yourself for the worst, I mean, I just don't have the confidence that he's out there, well and alive..." she scratched her helmet.

"Look Astrid," Hiccup said, walking closer to her direction as Toothless stayed behind Hiccup. "I don't know how well this'll work, but we have to try. I still remember him shoving me to the grass when I first met him. He was afraid...helpless..and we look out for one another. We have to try, and even if we don't succeed, at least we can say that we went looking for him" he said.

Astrid, feeling quite inspired from what Hiccup said, nodded along.

"I'm just saying, please just don't try and get your hopes up, it's a big gamble on the idea that he's lived, but we'll have to see" she said, walking back over to Stormfly, patting her head.

All the vikings that stood outside the arena started walking away as well, as all the dragons exited the arena; this commenced the start of the search, and so they would all be looking over the main portion of Berk. Hiccup walked back over to Toothless as the Night Fury looked at his viking.

"Right bud, me and you are gonna cover uh, I don't know actually...uh...I guess the areas surrounding the docks?" he said, having realised that all the possible areas were basically already being searched at.

Toothless, equipped with the tail fin that allows him to fly without Hiccup, had a saddle pack on him for this occasion; they were going to be in the air for awhile, and if they ever found Morgan, they'd be able to give him back his helmet that was kept inside the saddle pack. Toothless looked determined, and his puppy eyes looked serious. He wanted to find Morgan as much as Hiccup does, but maybe just a tiny bit more than Hiccup.

"Come on bud, let's go find him" Hiccup said, walking with Toothless to the tunnel to start flying over Berk.

***BACK AT THE FOREST EDGE WITH GUSTAV, FANGHOOK, AND MORGAN***

Morgan was munching on an apple as the day was drawing to an end. The sky of the viking world was still light, but the sun started glittering some of it's redness it usually does when it starts to set. He was sat on the grass, looking towards the water, wondering what everybody is thinking. He didn't expect anybody to make a big deal of it, but by god, he's in for a massive surprise if he gets found. Gustav and Fanghook were exploring the woods behind Morgan to find something to potentially start a fire with. What they came back with was some sticks, and a couple of small rocks that could be used to ignite fire. Morgan was still sat down, finishing off the remaining contents of his apple when they came back.

"Hey," Gustav said, dropping a pile of sticks to the ground behind Morgan, in which he flinched and stood up whilst finishing off the apple. "I don't know how this is gonna work, but you can maybe use this to make yourself a fire?" he said.

"T-Thanks?" Morgan said, still recovering from the fright he was just given.

Fanghook smiled, showing the dragon's sense of humour, but Morgan didn't notice it again. The dragon saw Morgan as a cute little lad, and somebody who'd be able to generate plenty of laughs most likely. Morgan didn't know this, but when he finds out, if he ever does, he'll be in for the joy of his life.

"So uh," Gustav said, dropping the two rocks onto the pile of sticks, "I got these as well, you can rub em' together to create the flames, uh"

Morgan looked down at the sticks and rocks, feeling grateful towards Gustav.

"Thanks, you're gonna make my time here easier" he said, ducking down to the sticks to create an appropriate formation of them for when he tries to ignite the flames.

He tried creating multiple X shapes with the sticks, one on top of the other, and they all kept their balance surprisingly easy. It's the last part, actually getting the flames, that Morgan was dreading. As he continued stacking the sticks together, Gustav spoke up.

"I've gotta be honest here, haha" he said, "you really don't have the look most of Berk does, how'd you get here?" he asked.

Fanghook simply sat down behind Gustav as he watched Morgan create the foundation for the flames. Morgan started speaking as he adjusted the final positions of the sticks.

"Literally man, it's complicated business, you won't be able to understand me" he said.

"Oh come on," Gustav replied, "you can tell me anything, after all, I am giving you my support, right?" he added.

"Fine, but trust me, you've never heard of the place before, sooo yeahh" Morgan said, before he continued, "I come from a place pretty much nobodies heard about on Berk, the United Kingdom, an island that pretty much makes Berk look like a dwarf"

Gustav looked intrigued, "Ohhh, the United Kingdom?" he said, "that sounds pretty cool, what's in it?" he asked.

As Morgan set down the final few sticks in position, he began talking about the aspects only HE knows of his country.

"Ohh uh, well we have technology, we're basically advanced in time and games and uh..school" he said, as he began to wonder why in all hell he's trying to explain this all to a viking.

"Gotta say, your home doesn't sound all that bad, would we be able to go there?" he asked Morgan.

The complicated business comes in here, because Morgan himself still had no idea if Berk was actually on the charts of the world he came from. If he was able to somehow magically teleport here after waking up, then the chances are that Berk is not accessible to anybody from the world Morgan came from. He tried to justify this into a more simple explanation, but it proved to be hard.

"Well uh, as crazy as it sounds," Morgan said, grabbing a hold of the rocks, "I woke up on here one morning, completely random, completely unknown as to how it happened, but yeah, with that said, actually uh...wow, my geography isn't that great, so I don't know how long it'd take for us to get there all the way from here. My guess is that it'd take a while, much longer than the journey to Dragon's Edge, haha" he said. "I actually had something called a phone with me when I got here, but I left it at the friggin hut I was given by Hiccup when I changed from my old clothes into these ones" he pointed at his shirt. "It's a device where you can communicate with people by texts and games and that" he said.

"Wow," Gustav said, amazed at the thought of what Morgan explained, "You just said you left it at your hut, right? if me and Fanghook go and get it, would you be able to show us how it works?" he asked.

"Even if we did, it's completely out of charge, meaning it won't work unless we get electricity in some form around here" he replied in a gutted tone.

"Aw, I think it'd be worthwhile if we got it anyway" Gustav said.

"I dunno" Morgan replied. Morgan started rubbing the two rocks together to create some heat, and his hands were already starting to get warm. "Oh yeah," he said, remembering a crucial moment from the first day he got on Berk. "I had shown Hiccup the phone when I first got here, and he loved it, he said it'd eliminate the purpose of having to travel by the dragons, which I don't understand how it would, but oh well" Morgan mumbled, as he tried to ignite the sticks.

He rubbed the rocks together again, but his finger got caught in between them and he scratched it.

"Ouch," Morgan said, dropping the rocks lightly.

This was going to be a train wreck to get these flames working. He rubbed his finger and started shaking it to ease off the pain. Fanghook was occupied with looking around the area Gustav and Morgan were at for protection purposes, so he didn't see the comical moment.

"Right, Gustav, can you help me out with this?" he asked.

Gustav shrugged his shoulders, but intended on trying anyways.

"Uh, I can try" he said.

Morgan stood up from his ducking position and handed the two rocks over to Gustav, who in turn began rubbing them to create the heat again. He ducked down and held the rocks over the sticks as he rubbed them.

"Jesus, that really hurts" Morgan said, stepping to the side as he watched Gustav try to create the fire.

"I've done worse than that, don't be a baby" Gustav replied.

"I'm not a baby," Morgan said, "nobody can be manly for ages surely?" he said.

Gustav simply chuckled to himself.

"You're bizarre, Morgan, but I like you" he said.

"I need to just take these boots off, they've been putting pressure on my feet all day" Morgan said, sitting down to take off the brown boots.

His feet were exposed to the grass this time. He slowly placed his brown boots together next to the fireplace, standing up after taking them off. He shook his toes to get rid of the cramp feel.

"Much better," Morgan said, taking a few steps back, "I'm just go-"

He stepped into something spiky on the ground and made a circular shape with his lips and yelled.

"OH!" Morgan said, dropping back down to his butt, holding onto the foot that got impaled with whatever it was. Fanghook smiled even bigger than he did before, and Morgan turned around to face the dragon smiling. Morgan looked surprised.

"Oh ahhahaha, very fun-" It hit him with realisation. "D-did you just...find that funny?" Morgan said, still sitting down.

Morgan stood up this time, not putting as much weight on the impaled foot as he did on his other. Fanghook simply emitted a sound that sounded like laughing, to the shock of Morgan.

"There's no way...a dragon has a sense of humour, surely?" an astonished Morgan said.

"It's Fanghook, course he does" Gustav laughed. "Ahhhh yes, here we go," he cheerfully muttered, after minutes of rubbing the rocks together to create the ignited flames.

He dropped the rocks into the sticks as soon as he saw some sparks of orange emerge between the two. Smoke initially started coming out, but the flames were being born in the sticks, and now it'd only be a matter of time until Morgan had his own fireplace.

"There you go Morgan, something to keep you warm" Gustav said, standing up.

"Thanks, I'm still shocked, haha" he said, still trying to comprehend the idea of a dragon who could actually distinguish funny things, and potentially jokes.

Can you imagine that? you could create the ultimate friendship with that. If a dragon finds you funny, then you'd start a bond easily, and it'd also feel good to make something that could easily kill you laugh at you.

"I don't think any of the other dragons have a sense of humour either..you truly have a lovely dragon, Gustav" Morgan said, looking on at Fanghook.

Fanghook simply nodded at Morgan with positivity.

"Thanks, hopefully you can find one like him, when we first met, it was completely impossible to think about peace, haha" he said, recalling to when he first met Fanghook.

Morgan wasn't one to intentionally be funny, but the idea of a dragon that can distinguish funny things is incredibly heart catching. Morgan turned around to face the fire as the flames went all over the sticks at long last.

"Wow, you actually did it as well, huh.." he said, placing his hands over it.

"Yah, we'll be warmed for the night" Gustav replied, doing the same as Morgan.

Morgan turned his head to the sky as it turned darker and darker as the sun lowered. He didn't know if his eyes were deceiving him, but within the sky over the ocean was a glimpse of green and white with a figure on it.

"W-What the?" he said, catching the attention of Gustav and Fanghook.

Settling in is one thing, it's another to completely avoid being concealed for three days. Although the area has been constructed with a fire place, it looks like something is already threatening Morgan's real status as being alive rather than dead. Whatever it is, it's going to get ugly real quick if he gets seen this early on. Whatever he's seeing in the sky above the water, it's clearly searching for something. Can he work out what it is? can he stay away from the eyes and ears of the Berk vikings to save his chances of getting a much needed advantage over Tuffnut when the duel finally comes?
