Due to feedback, I will be going back through each of the previous chapters and changing the movie to bold and the reactions to normal font, hope that makes it easier. I hope this is a satisfactory ending and well let's get this party started. I, SparkyIceblaze135 don't own HTTYD, ROTG, Tangled, Brave or any of the songs and characters used except my OC's and this fanfic. Enjoy the finale and I hope you've enjoyed the journey.
Astrid sees Toothless streaking through the sky, gaining altitude. "He's up!" She announces, turning to Ruffnut and Tuffnut, who are arguing and punching each other. "Get Snotlout out of there!" The twins look over to see Snotlout stranded on the monster's head and argue their way there. The twins take off, arguing as they race each other to the monster. Snotlout sees the Zippleback diving toward him and dashes down to the the Red Death's head. He runs up the end of its horn as the twins sweep past, both missing him... but perfectly snatching him where the necks merge. Ruff and Tuff eye each other, surprised and impressed. "I can't believe that worked" Says Tuffnut.
Cue everyone face-palming even the dragons while the twins shrug in confusion.
The Red Death spots Astrid and inhales, preparing to blast. She and her Nadder get caught in the suction, pulled toward the monster's gaping mouth. Meanwhile on the ground, the Vikings watch with dread. They hear the familiar whir of the... " Night Fury! Get down!" Yells Gobber, a blast jolts the Red Death's head sideways. Astrid is thrown clear of its mouth and off her Nadder. She tumbles through the air. When she's suddenly caught by the leg and sees Toothless. They fly over the crowd of Vikings and set Astrid down, mid- run. They circle back to re-engage, a black speck against the clouds. "Go" Says Astrid, breathless. Hiccup and Toothless rocket past the Red Death's head and climb, higher and higher. "That thing has wings! Okay, let's see if it can use them!" Says Hiccup, pulling Toothless into a turn as they plummet, gaining tremendous speed. The wind buffets them as they target the Red Death. Toothless unloads a fireball against the Red Death's head. It goes down with a rumble as they continue to go. The Vikings shield themselves from the dust of the fallen monster as its wings unfold and extend. Hiccup looks back as they put distance between them "Do you think that did it?" Suddenly, the dragon rises back up.
"Dammit, but you got this man" reassured Jack to a nervous Hiccup, he nodded but anxiety welled up in his chest. Here he was, fighting a giant dragon and everyone was counting on him...what if he failed?
Hiccup and Toothless dive into the tangled sea stacks and weave through them, all the while the Red Death snaps at them...but is unable to reach them. The duo pull ahead and the Red Death smashes through the rocks and appears behind Toothless. He in turn tries to lose it by bursting through several rock formations but the Red Death follows in hot pursuit. Hiccup eyes the clouds above and an idea hits him. He looks at Toothless "okay Toothless, time to disappear." Toothless head toward the clouds as The Red Death follows, closing in fast. They narrowly dodge a column of flame and smoke as they head into the clouds. The monster follows and immediately loses them, it roars irritably. Than...from out of nowhere, Toothless dives at the huge dragon, blasting and puncturing a hole in its wing.
"Nice one!" Cheers Gobber, Stoick looks on in fear but there's admiration on his face as he watches his son not only fight for his own life, but for them all. 'He'll be a great cheif' he thinks, and somehow he feels he always knew that. "Damn Hiccup, you got skills" exclaims Sparky impressed and Merida elbows him lightly in support while Rapunzel grabs his arm in fear and awe. "Thanks, but it isn't over yet" says Hiccup, his eyes never leaving the screen.
Toothless and Hiccup are gone again before the dragon can get a shot at them. Meanwhile, the Vikings stare up at the sky listening to the resounding booms and flashes of light, Gobber places a hand on Stoick's shoulder. Hiccup and Toothless repeat their plan and continue to puncture the beasts wings. It roars in frustration, whirling around and blindly unleashing fire. Hiccup sees the glow of fire cutting towards them and try as he might...it clips Toothless's tail and badly damaged it. "Okay, time's up. Let's see if this works." Says Hiccup, pulling Toothless into a turn and they fly directly into the Red Death's face, taunting it. "Come on! Is that the best you can do!?"
"Seriously, you're using their strategy?! For Thor's sake Haddock, if you die I will kill you!" Screams Astrid, tears in her eyes and fury on her face as she yells at him. Hiccup puts his hands up in surrender and looks at the rest of the seasonals for support...they all look away whistling "seems like a you problem" says Merida and Hiccup gives them a deadpan look "jee thanks guys." Rapunzel shrugs "in our defence...you are kinda...taunting Death...that's not really the best stratergy" she explains trying to be kind while Meirda rolls her eyes "it's bloody stupid it's what it is, what are ya trying to achieve?!" The two glare at each other before Sparky puts a hand on both of their shoulders "both of you chill, and watch. It's not like the rest of us haven't done anything that crazy...although we will be having words Hiccup." Hiccup sighed but both relented and sat down. Astrid says nothing but its clear she's terrified.
Toothless utters an insult too, and they go into a steep dive as the Red Death pursues them. Toothless races faster than he's ever gone before, they are just ahead of the beast but are no longer evading it. Hiccup glances back to check the tail... it's disintegrating. "Stay with me buddy. We're good. Just a little bit longer." he encourages as the The Red Death closes the gap between them. Hiccup tucks in and holds Toothless steady... allowing the monster to set its sights on them. It narrows its eyes and opens its mouth, the sound of gas emanates from his throat, ignition is coming. "Now!" Screams Hiccup, hitting the pedals hard as Toothless extends one wing. They pivot in place in place, hurtling directly into the Red Death's mouth as Toothless fires point blank down the monster's throat. Its gas is ignited and backfires into the monster, erupting in a chain of blasts throughout its body.
Everyone watches with baited breathe "I have a bad feeling in my belly" mumbles North.
Hiccup and Toothless burst from the clouds, the Red Death is hot on their tail as it explodes from within. It glances forward and sees the ground rushing up and throws open its wings...but they are too damaged to stop its fall. As the Red Death chokes on the expanding fireball, it sees Toothless suddenly pull out of the dive, streaking up, past its head. The beast hits the ground head first and explodes, Hiccup and Toothless weave through the monster's massive back plates, wings, and flailing legs. The expanding fireball races toward them, about to swallow them. But they manage to clear the obstacles, Hiccup glances back and notices they are outrunning the fireball. He looks forward just in time to see the monster's massive club tail careening toward them...but there's no where for them to go as the last shreds of Toothless' tail tear away. They can't maneuverer, the giant tail clips Toothless, and tears Hiccup from the harness and sending him tumbling against the backdrop of the fast-approaching fireball. Toothless struggles to reach the unconscious Hiccup. But the fireball swallows them both, the Vikings watch in horror as Hiccup and Toothless disappear into the boiling inferno.
Astrid's scream echoes horribly throughout the room and Hiccup holds her tightly as she sobs into his arms. "Hey...hey it's ok. I'm here Astrid, I'm right here" he comforts. Opening his arms for the rest of the now sobbing seasonals to run into and they embrace each other in a group hug. He had no idea just how much he cared for them and vice versa...And somehow the rest of the viking teens wormed their way into the hug, no one spoke they just all held Hiccup...needing to know he was here with them and unharmed. But than another cry was heard, Stoick was on his knees sobbing with his helmet in hand. And despite everything...the scene broke Hiccups heart, the group let him go and he shyly wandered to his father who fully embraced him and the both sobbed. "I'm sorry Hiccup...for everything..." He whispered, looking up at him with misty eyes "you're a true Viking...and I'm so proud to be your father." Tears rolled down Hiccup's cheeks, it was all he ever wanted to hear. Toothless curls up beside them and nuzzles Hiccups head.
There's a whiteout of ash...and through Stoick emerges, searching desperately. "Hiccup? Hiccup!?" he calls, frantically on the scorched and smoking earth. "Hiccup!? Son!?" He calls again, and than...thorough the ash Stoick sees the motionless silhouette of Toothless. He hurries to the dragon's side and while he's roughed up, Toothless is conscious. Although, his scorched saddle is empty. Stoick looks to the sky in despair and buckles at the knees, overwhelmed by the loss. "Oh son...I did this... " He mumbles mournfully, Astrid pushes through the crowd, her eyes welling up. Followed by Gobber, the rest of the Vikings flank Stoick as he kneels, slumped over. Behind them, a ring of Vikings form, keeping a respectful distance...as the dust and smoke clear, a ring of wild dragons can also be seen, gathering just behind and between the Vikings. Toothless stirs and groggily rolls his head toward Stoick, their eyes meet. "I'm so sorry..." He says, Toothless unfolds his wings... revealing an unconscious Hiccup, clutched safely against his chest. Stoick's eyes widen and scoops up his son into his arms and listens to his heart. Stoick bursts into relieved laughter "he's alive! You brought him back alive!"
Everyone lets out a huge sigh as relief floods through their veins. "Guess you're not going to kill me?" Asks Hiccup to Astrid who laughs and wipes her tears before punching him in the shoulder. "Give it time Haddock...you scare me like that again and I will bury you." She declares but the smile never leaves her face. "Noted" he chuckles, the rest of the teens all deflate and fall into giggles. "Jeez I thought I already had one brother that scares me half to death...now I have two" sighs Sparky in mock sadness making both Jack and Hiccup pout before linking arms with mischief in their eyes. "Oh you haven't seen anything yet" they say in unison and Merida laughs before becoming identically afraid when her little brothers join them. "Ah man we're dead" she sighs.
The crowd roars, followed by the dragons. The Vikings look around to find themselves surrounded, Stoick leans close to Toothless, meeting him eye to eye. "Thank you... for saving my son" he says while Gobber looks, Hiccup up and down. "Well, you know... most of him". Stoick glances back at him. Gobber shrugs, redirecting his eyes toward as the screen shifts. Hiccup is fast asleep, healing scars on his face show that maybe a week or two have passed. Toothless hovers over him, whining and grumbling impatiently. Hiccup stirs and opens his eyes "oh, hey Toothless" He says, groggy from sleep. Toothless excitedly nuzzles and nudges Hiccup "okay, okay! I'm happy to see you too, bud. Now just-"...that's when Toothless steps on something...important and Hiccup bolts upright with a yelp.
Laughter and winces echo around him and Hiccup glares at everyone.
Hiccup looks around, confounded. He's in his bed, moved beside the fire pit on the main floor of his house. "I'm in my house" he mumbles, looking at an excited Toothless. "You're in my house." Toothless pays no attention to him. running around the room, knocking things over as he's far too big for the space. "Uh...does my dad know you're in here?!" he asks worriedly, Toothless pauses at the foot of the bed, tongue wagging. He eyes the rafters... and leaps up onto them and just oozing happy dog energy. "Okay, okay - no Toothless! Aw, come on... "Hiccup shifts to get out of bed... then pauses... sensing that something is wrong. He peels back the covers slowly and is both startled and horrified by what he sees. His booted foot touches down, followed by a mechanical prosthetic in place of his second leg.
Hiccups eyes widen, looking at his real leg and than the prosthetic on screen, overwhelmed by the sight.
Toothless lands by the bed and approaches calmly, sniffing the new leg. He raises his eyes to meet Hiccup's, seemingly aware of what Hiccup is going through. Hiccup braces himself on the bedpost and tries to stand on it. He winces and stifles the pain and stumbles on his first step. Toothless catches Hiccup's fall with his head and slowly lifts him up, stabilizing him. Hiccup thanks him as he uses the dragon as a crutch. They take a few steps together, notching how their Their missing parts form a silhouette as they make their way toward the door. Hiccup pries it open, revealing Monstrous Nightmare flapping outside the door. Hiccup yelps and slams the door closed. He turns to Toothless, alarmed before reopening the door and seeing the same dragon...carrying Snotlout on its back. "Come on guys, get ready! Hold on tight! Here we go!" He barks, instructing a class of newbie dragon riders follow him through frame on a variety of dragons, pulling back the curtain on an amazing vista in which Vikings and dragons mill about by the dozen, basking on the rooftops, weaving along the plaza. No one seems upset, there isn't a sword in sight, under the framework of a barn, a Nadder blasts fire onto a metal brace. It steps back to let a Viking hammer it into shape. Nearby, a Gronkle lands, carrying a tree trunk in his mouth. He shows a Viking what he's found. The Viking pats his head. Another Viking backs a Zippleback into a stall to check it for size. Hiccup takes a step outside, finding Stoick waiting for him on the step. "I knew it. I'm dead." He exclaims, making Stoick laugh. " No, but you gave it your best shot." He puts his arm around Hiccup, steadying him and gestures to the transformed village. " So? What do you think?" Hiccup just shrugs, amazed.
"It's... I wow... Are you sure I'm not dead?" Asks Hiccup and Sparky chuckles shaking her head. "Nah your just in two pieces instead of one. This will happen" she says with a soft smile that he mirrors.
Below, the plaza, villagers notice Hiccup is there and rush over. "Hey look! It's Hiccup!" "Hiccup, how you doin' mate?" "It's great to see you up and about." Stoick smiles "turns out all we needed was a little more of..." He gestures to Hiccup "this" Hiccup smiles, playing along "you just gestured to all of me." "That's when Gobber appears, pushing through the crowd with a proud beam. "Well, most of you. That bit's my handiwork, with a little Hiccup flare thrown in. Think it'll do?" Hiccup nods though bittersweet remarks he might make a few teweaks. And than, Astrid appears "That's for scaring me" she says, jabbing Hiccup in the arm. He recoils and grumbles "what, is it always going to be this way? Cause I..." He's interrupted by Astrid grabbing him aggressively and kissing him. then kisses him. Hoots and hollers follow. "Could get used to it" finishes Hiccup bright red.
Astrid and Hiccup, both equally bright red both shly smile at each other. No words needing to be said. "Soo... I'm thinking a autumn wedding?" Remarks Jack, a teasing grin kn his face. "Oooh yes! And we can streamers in different the different lesfe colours, and maybe pumpkins around the room" cheered Rapunzel. "Nice but what if we had it outside during autumn? We can totally get some spirits to help and make it really cool looking" added Sparky , Merida nodded "aye, we can have different games and music too." All of them started comparing ideas all the while Hiccup and Astrid (loudly) yelled at them to quit it. "Thanks Astrid Hofferson you've made us the happiest people on earth" yells Jack, winking at the couple.
Gobber presents Hiccup with a rebuilt saddle, rigging, and tail. "Welcome home" He smiles as Toothless pounces on the crowd, crushing several unsuspecting Vikings under his weight. "Night Fury, get down!" They scream as Toothless eyes the new tail excitedly, tongue wagging. Amidst the groans and grumbles, Hiccup and Astrid exchange a sheepish grin. Hiccup's prosthetic foot, snaps into the modified stirrup. The two pieces click together, forming a single shape.He rotates the pedal and the new tail opens. Bright red with a skull and Viking horns emblazoned on it.
"Awesome" cheers Tuffnut. The yeti wander over to Gobber and they converse about different building techniques... No one questions why Gobber somehow is fluent in Yitish.
We cut to Hiccup and Toothless, saddled up and ready to fly. Astrid backs her Nadder into position. "You ready?" Asks Hiccup and Toothless SNORTS an excited 'yes!' From his mount, Hiccup looks out over the changed world. " This... is Berk. It snows nine months of the year... and hails the other three." The duo leap into the bright blue sky, together as one. Astrid follows, giving chase. "Any food that grows here is tough and tasteless. The people that grow here are even more so." Hiccup and Astrid race their dragons through the village - under eaves, over rooftops, down cliff-sides, and between ship masts. "The only upsides are the pets. While other places have...ponies or parrots, we have..." Their fellow recruits join them as they take to the open sky, rocketing far above the village. The Northern sky swirls with blazing, multicolored dragons. Hiccup and Toothless break from the pack, spinning into the blinding sun. "... dragons."
Everyone cheers as the credits roll, when a new voice is heard. "So this is where you've been hiding." Sparky, Jack, Pitch and the guardians all freeze. Sparky vaults over one of the chairs and hides and Jack moves to join her when a vine tendril grabs him midair. "Jack?!" Yells Rapunzel as the owner of the tendril comes into view. A beautiful woman with long wavy black hair, piercing amber eyes and grey skin. She dawns a dark green gown with each of the layers embodying a different element and has a rose flower crown on her head. "Hi Mother..." greets Jack weakly. "Hello Jackson. Sparky, come out I know your in here if he's apart of this." She says, her eyes wandering around the room.
"Actually this was all me, Jack didn't know and had no part in my plan...put him down." Says Sparky, moving out from her hiding place and the vine around Jack vanishes. "Erm... What's going on?" Asks Fishlegs and the woman turns to him. "I go by many names but I am mostly known ad Mother Nature. I was told that Father time's Crystal clock was stolen... And that a certain rift in time involved these two. And low and behold I find you all here in a space unaffected by time itself." She explained, turning to Sparky who pulled out a small crystal pocket watch from her pocket and handed it over.
"And pray tell what we're thinking? You know as well as I do just how valuable this piece is and how much power it weilds. It is not something to be used lightly." At Sparky's miserable face, Mother Nature softened her gaze and her tone became lighter. She bent down on her knees and the two became level. "Please tell me why" she prompted. "I...I took it after the Easter incident... I knew I had to something... Not just because of Jack and I but because when I touched it I saw the futures of the others here... I saw the new seasonals and how they all fell into despair... Sure it would get better but there hearts and trust were fragile and... I had too... So I bought them all here so that they could see it, and than after the fact they would remember what they learnt and understand each other and forge those bonds stronger than ever..."
Mother Nature's eyes widened, looking at Hiccup, Rapunzel and Merida and realising that they were the next seasonals before returning her gaze to Sparky." I see but why... Why did you put all that responsibility on yourself and yourself alone." She said kindly, tears fell in Sparky's eyes and Mother Nature embraced her. "I'm a guardian Mother... Guardian of betrayal, it hurt seeing them fall and I knew I had too... I already failed Jack I couldn't fail them too.." She sobbed into her Mother's arms as she rubbed her back. "I commend you for your efforts, just by seeing them I know you were successful... And I'm proud of you. You didn't fail your brother."
Jack hovered awkwardly nearby till he too was pulled into the hug as well. "Yeah, true that." He added making both of them giggle. A throat cleared behind them and Mother Nature turned around... Only to freeze as well. "I also... Found a way using it... To bring back Grandfather's memories" added Sparky with a smile as Pitch looked at Mother Nature... Seraphina Pitchiner. "Seraphina..." time seemed to stop between them as they both ran to embrace the other. Tears and pain were reflected in each of their eyes at their long time apart... But finally they were reunited again.
"Thank you..." smiled Seraphina at Sparky as she embraced her Father. "I'm apparently a guardian too, of Bravery." He said and she laughed "I can think of no better title" she said. "So... There off the hook just like that?" Said Bunnymund and was met with a fierce glare by Mother Nature. "Of course, I'm sure Father Time will agree as well... Unlike you lot I like to hear people out... And yes we will be having words later." She growled, still somehow looking powerful in her Fathers arms. "Now Seraphina please don't do anything irrational" came Manny's soothing voice but that only served to further anger the Earth Mother.
"Oh don't you start! First you stop me from being able to find my Father because apparently there was no way to get him out of the fearlings grasp... Than you try to stop me from seeing my youngest children, condemning them for 300 years of isolation and than YOUR Guardians turn on them! Your lucky my children have hearts of gold and forgiven all that but I will do no such thing!" Screamed Sersphina, the guardians and Manny at least at the courtesy to not say anything else. Pitch just looked at her with such pride." Oookay... Let's get ya'll back to your timelines before Mother fights the Moon and or Santa" yelled Sparky, taking the time piece and sending them all back.
Once they reached the end of there "movies" a burst of light gathered them all in the Pole where Sersphina, and the rest were waiting. "What's going on?" Asked Merida and she was met with a kind smile. "You four will be made seasonals and guardians, it was already known but its time to make it official if you choose for it to be." Explained Seraphina, Hiccup awkwardly stuck up a hand and she looked at him encouraging him to speak. "Hi er yeah... But we're alive?" She chuckled "that you are. You see most are chosen while they were alive, if you were to perish you would be made immortal and you can grant the ability to make someone a seasonal sprite when they pass. I'm afraid these two managed to be the exceptions to the no death rule" she said, ruffling both Jack and Sparky's hair before facing the other 3.
"Do you, Merida, Rapunzel and Hiccup. Do you each accept the gift of the seasons, to be summer, spring and Autumn and the responsibilities and powers that come with it."
Merida looked at her Mother and Father, she remembered when such a thing would anger her... But now looking back at them and the bonds between them and her... she knew she was ready" I accept". Hiccup looked at his Father and Toothless, he'd never believed himself worthy or ready until he fought Red Death and the changes he'd caused "I accept". Rapuzel looked at Eugene, she'd spent her entire life searching and wondering and it was time for it to begin "I accept." Seraphina smiled "than with the power vested in me, I grant you all the gift of the seasons" red, pink and green light burst from Seraphina and flew to each of them, they all glowed their respective colours. Fire burst from Merida's hand, flower petals spun around Rapunzel and leaves fell from above Hiccup.
"And now, the guardianship" she said, turning to North who stood infront of them. "Do you, Merida, Rapunzel and Hiccup. Do you vow to watch over the children of the world? To guard them with your life, their hopes, their wishes and their dreams. For they are all that we have, all that we are and all that we will be?" The trio all exchange looks with Sparky and Jack before looking at each other and nod" I do" they say in unison. "Than I make you, Hiccup the guardian of change, Rapunzel the guardian of Creativity and Merida the guardian of freedom." Came Manny's voice as the group began to cheer.
"Hmm what n-" said Bunnymund before falling backwards as a snowball hit him square in the face. A grinning Jack waved as snow began to fall and they all ran out. "Snow ball fight!" Everyone began to run and play as laughter filled the air.
And that my friends is the end. I hope you enjoyed it and if you want to see more from me check out my other stories here, on Wattpad (GlitchyHeart1704) and my tumblr (StarlightShadowsWorld) and I'll see you soon.
