It's been one month since Snotlout been shipped off Berk to learn manners on how to treat girls from Bertha Blog on Blog Burglars Tribe.
Hiccup and Astrid live together in their new house on the hill with their daughter, Hope, four minutes away from Stoick's house.
The villagers were shocked that Astrid requested that her and Hiccup live together like a family taking care of Hope and that Astrid demanded that Snotlout be forced to leave Berk for three months to learn meaning of when a girl is engaged to someone else, that they are off limits to him.
Valka moved all the dragons from dragon sanctuary to Berk by the mountain side while Valka moved back in with Hiccup's dad.
Hiccup woke up from his sleep and sighs "I feel like we are going to be getting a visitor today."
Astrid stirs from her sleep "well you know how to handle threats against your family."
Hiccup sighs "this feels like the fight I had with Snotlout over your hand in marriage."
Astrid smiles "well you did handle that well, so you have nothing to worry about."
Hiccup sighs and gets up and gets dressed while Astrid laid in bed to sleep more. He walks upstairs to fetch Hope.
Hope was whining and Hiccup walked in and picked her up and brought her over to the changing table that he built to the height of his waist.
He remember building it out of two by four and one -one by eight. After building it and changing Hope on it, some of the moms ask him to build them one for them to change their babies.
He finished changing Hope, he took her out to the forge to work in the forge. He looks at the order list and check the weapons and writes down how many minutes each weapon would take and started working on the short time weapons.
An hour later Gobber shows up "I see your hard at work."
Hiccup smiles "yep, I examine your list of weapons and wrote down estimate time to repair and started working on the ones that take less time to repair."
A half an hour later, Stoick appeared and ask "Hiccup, do you know where Astrid is?"
Hiccup smiles "probably sleeping in at home or at her parents, why?"
Stoick sighs "she is heir to Berk and unfortunately the Berserker Tribe is visiting today to renew the treaty with us-"
Hiccup cuts him off "Wait! Did you just say that Dagur The Deranged is coming here to visit?!"
Stoick smiles "yes, son."
Hiccup panics "I have to go protect the dragons and secure their safety."
Stoick gaped "what is wrong?"
Hiccup panics "Dagur isn't trust worthy when it comes to keeping peace between Tribes, if he finds something worthy that he wants badly and won't accept no!"
Stoick sighs "your over reacting and when did you meet him to figure that out about him?"
Hiccup sighs "when we were kids and he would use me as target practice and said I had to dodge his knives to get better at fighting without a weapon and he tried to drown me."
Hope garble "ma n dan gr?"
Hiccup sighs "not if I can try to protect her, daughter."
Hiccup takes Hope and look around the island checking places she would go. Her parents house and stopped at their house to see she left a note saying that she took Stormfly flying around the island for a few hours and sighs "great! Of all the times she wants to go flying she picks the day Berserker Tribe come to visit them."
He walks outside to Toothless and says "Toothless, alpha command, I need you to call Stormfly back."
Toothless tilt his head and snorts before letting out an ear piercing roar that rings around Berk.
Five minutes later, Stormfly lands with Astrid.
Astrid yells "what the hel is wrong for you to interrupt our flying time?!"
Hiccup sighs "Dagur is coming to visit, but if you want to continue flying, I won't stop you. I just thought you should know" and leaves with Hope leaving Astrid stun at him for some reason.
He walks with Hope to the far end of the island "sometimes her anger scares me and triggers me to leave her and not look back at her until she calms down."
Hope garble "ma scairy wen ang ry."
Hiccup sighs "yes she is daughter."
They reached the Dragon sanctuary on the mountain side of the island. Toothless followed them to the sanctuary to visit the dragons and make sure their fine.
(With Astrid)
Astrid gets back on Stormfly to fly a little more around Berk until they spotted an armada of ships coming towards Berk and sighs "that must be Oswald and the Berserker Tribe escort."
She lands on Berk and informs Stoick.
Stoick sighs "thank you for letting me know, Astrid. Do you know where Hiccup is?"
Astrid snorts "in the forest mopping because I yelled at him for disrupting my flying time with Stormfly."
Stoick sighs "okay."
Twenty minutes later the guard blew the blow horn signal that ships are arriving at the dock.
Stoick and Spitelout walked down to the docks to meet Oswald.
The announcer yells "PRESENTING DAGUR THE DERANGED, CHIEF OF BERSERKER TRIBE!"
Stoick and Spitelout gaped "Dagur is Chief now?!"
Dagur laughs "yep, I'm the Chief now and I came here to review our treaty with you and want a little extra to seal our peace treaty with Berk."
Stoick nervous ask "what sort of extra would you want to keep peace between us?"
Dagur grins sadistically "why a marriage contract between our Tribes!"
Spitelout nervous ask "well I'm sure we can find you a girl that may like you."
Dagur laughs "actually I would like to marry Astrid Hofferson."
Stoick gaped "uh...she is taken already."
Dagur gaped in surprise "she is already taken as in married?"
Spitelout sternly says "no, she isn't married yet, but engaged to Hiccup Haddock."
Dagur smirks "oh, well that makes sense. So where is little Hiccup?"
Stoick sighs "in the forest somewhere hiding."
Astrid arrives at the docks and says "Stoick, Hiccup is gone!"
Stoick turns to Astrid and asks "what do you mean, he is gone?!"
Astrid sighs "he left on Toothless with Hope! I don't know where he went!"
Spitelout sighs "he probably went flying on Toothless to clear his head."
Dagur ask "who is Hope and who is Toothless?"
Spitelout sighs "Toothless is Hiccup's Night Fury and Hope is-"
Astrid smiles "Hope is mine and Hiccup's daughter."
Dagur looks at Stoick and Spitelout and demands "how can she have a daughter with Hiccup and not be married to him, but engaged to him?!"
Astrid smiles "I gave Stoick my shield to make myself engaged to Hiccup and he propose to me with this" showing them her engagement ring.
Dagur looks at Stoick "when is Hiccup going to return?"
Spitelout sighs "don't know why he left this time or when he will return."
(With Hiccup and Hope and Toothless)
Hiccup and Hope landed on Gual.
He walks over to his and Sophie's house and says "Hope, this is where me and your blood mom lived in before you were born."
Hope smiles at him.
He takes Hope over to the beach to where he sent Sophie off on a pyre. There in the sand laid a tombstone curved with Toothless's claws.
Hope looks at the tombstone in front of them.
Hiccup sighs "I miss you Sophie Page Hilson. Astrid can sometimes be hard to live with because of her anger at reactions."
Hope nuzzle his chest thinking about her blood mom. She ask "di ma lve me?"
Hiccup smiles "of course she did, daughter. When she found out she was pregnant with you, she was over the moon about you."
Two hours go by while Hiccup and Hope visit Sophie's tombstone.
Hiccup drew another picture of Hope and Sophie.
Afterwards they fly back to Berk and land in the Dragon sanctuary.
He tells Toothless "stay here and I'll come get you tonight."
He takes Hope home and change her diaper and then head to the great Hall with Hope.
He walks inside the hall to see everyone eating lunch or hanging out with others. He walks over to a table that has food and grabs a plate of fish and walks over to an empty table to eat alone with his daughter.
Stoick gazed at his son wondering what happened between him and Astrid to make him feel down.
Dagur scowls at him from beside Stoick. He gets up and walks over to Hiccup's table and smiles "hi, brother!"
Hiccup smiles "hi, Dagur, how have you been?"
Dagur laughs "been doing good. I hear from your father, that your engaged to Astrid and have a daughter with her?"
Hiccup sighs "I think I'm starting to regret it sometimes and sometimes I love being engaged to her."
Dagur smiles "girls can leave you second guessing about dating them or wanting to marry them."
Hiccup looks down at Hope sleeping in his arms and says "I did fall in love with a girl who was Hope's mother that was killed by a psycho."
Dagur turns serious "brother, I challenge you to a duel for Astrid's hand in marriage!"
Hiccup stops eating and looks at Dagur for a second before saying "I don't feel like fighting you right now for my supposedly fiancee's hand in marriage."
Dagur gaped "I heard from the villagers that you fought your cousin for her hand in marriage without a second thought."
Hiccup sighs "I wasn't fighting for her hand for most of that fight, it was because he threaten my godparents."
Dagur looks at him in the eye and smirks "you don't have the fire to fight for Astrid."
Hiccup sighs "your probably right because I don't feel like fighting. I feel like I'm at a crossroads wondering what I should do now with my future."
Dagur gaped at him "your interest changed."
Hiccup finished eating and says "it was nice seeing you Dagur, I have to take care of Hope. I know you are looking for a wife, but sometimes fighting someone for girl doesn't always win a girl's heart, even if you won the fight."
Dagur gaped at him "you know how to win a girl's heart?"
Hiccup looks at him "I'll tell you about my past to help you out."
Dagur watch Hiccup leave with Hope like nothing matter to him except for his daughter.
Everyone watch Hiccup leave with Hope.
Stoick curious says "something must have happened between Hiccup and Astrid."
Gobber curious says "when I seen him like that was after he and Astrid made love after Hiccup returned from the nest battle and he revert back to the point of Astrid telling Thuggory that she would divorce him after consummate their marriage."
Ingrid walks up to them and ask "do you know what is wrong with Hiccup because that is not Hiccup?"
Gobber sighs "he revert back to something in his past and I think Astrid said something to him."
Stoick widened his eyes "Astrid yelled at him for interrupting her flight time to inform her that Dagur was visiting us this morning."
Ingrid turns around and yells ASTRID FINN HOFFERSON GET OVER HERE NOW!"
Astrid sighs and goes over to her mom and asks "yes, mom?"
Ingrid scowls "tell me everything from the time you both woke up!"
Astrid sighs "he said he got a feeling about having to face someone for my hand in marriage and that it felt like when he faced Snotlout.
Then he had Toothless do the alpha roar to have Stormfly fly me to them and I asked him what his problem was to interrupt our morning flight while he watch Hope and he just said that he just wanted to inform me that Dagur was coming to visit us for Treaty review and left me in front of our house while he walked away."
Ingrid scowls "he feels like his feelings don't mean anything to YOU!"
Stoick gaped "he felt scared for Astrid's safety and Astrid just basically said she don't care about his concerns towards her."
Ingrid sighs "and Dagur just challenge him for Astrid's hand in marriage and he turned down the challenge and offered Intel about girls in the morning."
Dagur sighs "I'm curious as to what happened here for Hiccup to change from when I was training him to learn how to dodge sharp weapons that are thrown at him to this boy who doesn't show any life in him."
Astrid sighs "I didn't know how much I meant to him when we were kids and the fact that my friends, Ruffnut and Tuffnut played pranks on the village to destroy the village and we agreed to put the blame on Hiccup. Even when I was engaged to him."
Dagur gaped "no wonder he turned down the challenge, he has no fire in his heart to put up a fight because his heart is broken."
Astrid gaped "he turned down the challenge?! Doesn't that result in me being engaged to you?"
Dagur smiles "it's not interesting when he wouldn't put up a challenge, so I thought about his offer to hear about his past to understand how to win a girl's heart."
