3 person view "no" "yes" "no" "yes" "no" "yes" this was all that was heard throughout the village early the next morning after the birth of the alpha's offspring, but if you weren't hiccup, dagur, dj or eret it would've sounded like 'no' 'growl' 'no' 'growl' since the chief was arguing with his dragon.

"no and that is final toothless" hiccup shouted as he walked towards the arena he hoped to gods that dagur had been having better luck with banshee but from the roars he heard from the other side of the village he doubted it.

"look" toothless said jumping in front of his rider "nightfurys and skrills learn to fly at a young age they'll be in the air by the time we're ready to leave if not sooner" "look it's already been decided I'm taking sleuther and dagur will be riding with one of us when we leave for berk at the end of the week, you and banshee are staying here" hiccup said walking around his dragon.

he walked into the arena where the berkians are with their dragons but once again toothless jumped in front of him "but if I'm not there who will protect you and make the hard call because i know you can't" toothless said stopping hiccup in his tracks.

"that's why I'm taking dj and dagur you can't deny the fact that the two of them can take out the whole village if things go bad" hiccup said in dragonese so the berkians don't know about that part.

"i still want to be there" toothless said "and I'm sure banshee will agree with me" toothless said before hiccup could say anything he sighed "alright look we'll talk with dagur and banshee later and maybe you guys can come but no promises" hiccup said as toothless smiled smugly.

'i just lost an argument to a dragon' hiccup thought "you name your kids yet" hiccup asked getting the saddles out and lined up in front of the vikings "yep lightning and wind are the girls and bolt is the boy" "nice" hiccup said "alright class" he said getting the berkians attention "today we will learn to fly if not up high in the sky at least in the arena".

"so I've laid out the saddles your job is to know which saddle is for which dragon, and no helping" he said seeing barf and belch trying to nod their heads towards their saddle they shrunk back to where they were before.

"you have five minutes if you don't do it you all gotta do 30 push-ups go" he shouted as they rushed forward towards the saddles while toothless laid down and hiccup leaned back against his dragon and watched "so you think things will turn bad on berk?" hiccup said remembering the conversation from earlier "i don't know i hope not but at the same time i have a feeling something is gonna happen but i don't know what" toothless said.

"well if it does I'd like to have you there, but at the same time you have to look out for your family bud" he said watching as astrid, fishlegs and heather got the right saddles on their dragons toothless then looked at hiccup you are my family as much as my kids and mate are, your my brother, their uncle" he said "and you never forget that" toothless said with a stern look but had a smile he laughed and patted him on the back.

the twins just got their saddle strapped on when hiccup yelled "time" everyone sighed in relief "alright now let's talk about sitting and flying" hiccup said getting on toothless.

" 1, saddles make it easier but if your don't have one it'll hurt like hell even with a saddle it will take a few flights before you get the feel for it" hiccup said.

" 2, never try and control your dragon they aren't ships that you can steer they'll let you steer but if they pull away from something you never pull back" hiccup said as he then showed them how to sit down and what will hurt the dragon.

"now will everyone get on their dragons" hiccup said "how?" fishlegs said gesturing to the height difference, hiccup got off toothless "well when you have enough practice your dragon will crouch down when you come and want to take off but until then" he said as he looked back at toothless.

he then raised his hand flat and lowered it as toothless crouched down and hiccup got back on "now you guys" he said as everyone followed his lead and did the same thing with the same result the dragons crouched down and they got on and adjusted to the saddles.

"alright now let's try hovering same thing once you have enough experience your dragon will take off without command because they will know but the other way is to give them a little nudge to their side not a kick but enough so they can feel it" everyone did as they were told and slowly the dragons took off and hovered 25 feet in the air.

"good job guys" hiccup said as he and toothless flew up beside them unaware that dj, dagur and eret were watching them from the side with their dragons behind them, the baby dragons sitting on the ledge watching their father help train the vikings.

snotlout suddenly looked up and his jaw dropped "um hiccup?" he said "yeah snotlout?" he said "did i die?" "unfortunately no" astrid said getting a laugh out of everyone including the other night riders "why?" hiccup said when he stopped laughing.

snotlout just pointed up, everyone followed his finger and seen what he was pointing at in the clouds were the outlines of 4 people with wings everyone except for hiccup, dj, dagur and eret shouted in fear and surprise.

the outlines started to come closer and closer then once they flew out of the clouds you could see they wore silver armor, the same colour as windshear's scales.

the closer they got the more you could make out details of them 2 were blond and the other two had strawberry blond hair and brown hair you could also make out the small razorwhips on their backs and they were all girls.

they landed in the middle of the arena and looked up at hiccup and the others hovering, hiccup then landed toothless while the others jumped down from the bleachers and they started towards the mysterious women.

once they got close enough they stopped and just stared at each other with emotionless faces until hiccup and the one with strawberry blonde hair both broke out in wide smiles.

"good to see you atali" hiccup said hugging the girl who hugged him back much to astrid's displeasure "you too hiccup" atali said as the others greeted each other the same way.

meanwhile astrid just sat on stormfly in deep thought as she seen hiccup talking with the woman "don't worry astrid" ruffnut said "I'm sure hiccup hugs a lot of girls that don't mean a thing to him" she said in a normal voice to make sure he didn't hear.

"wearing revealing silver armor and have nice hair and I'll shut up now" she said noticing heather's glare before heather flew over to her friend "hey look, dagur hugged one of the girls too and i don't think it's mala so you can't assume anything" heather said hoping to calm her friend down.

"yeah" astrid said looking down to see hiccup waving at them to come down they then all looked at each other.

"how" astrid yelled "tell them ground" hiccup yelled back "ground" they all yelled as the dragons slowly descended.

after getting off the dragons they came up to hiccup standing in front of the girls "atali" he said to the strawberry blonde one "atali, this is a group of vikings from... um berk" hiccup said quietly as atali's face dropped into a surprise look.

then a scowl as she took a step forward but hiccup blocked her "they are here to make amends and we've already made it clear what happens if they harm any dragon" hiccup said standing in front of her she looked around him at the young adults.

"it's not the dragons I'm worried about" she said taking a step back as hiccup moved out of the way "this is astrid hofferson, snotlout jorgensen, fishlegs ingermen, ruffnut and tuffnut throston gobber the belch and heather dagur's sister" hiccup said but was ignored as atali shot around him.

"oh my freyja they hatched" she said as she kneeled down and was surrounded by baby nightfuries and skrills jumping around her and nuzzling her "yep yesterday around noon" hiccup said as she laughed while lightning(the female skrill) licked her cheek.

she then turned to dagur "how about you dagur has yours 'hatched' yet?" she said with a sly smile, dagur's face suddenly went to 'oh hell' as he started trying to shush her.

heather turned to her brother "what does she mean 'has yours hatched yet'? brother" she said in a 'tell the truth for the good of your health' tone of voice "ah well you see, dear sister when i was banished a year ago by dad for falsely trying to kill him" he said slowly moving towards dj who was watching the hatchlings play with atali.

"i came to live with hiccup the others and the dragons and i met mala while planning a defense from the hunters we argued at first but then we started to develop feelings for each other."

"i heard all this before but what did she mean!" heather practicality yelled at him "well the reason we got married six months ago was because...well" dagur said now fully behind dj looking over his shoulder until he looked up and seen heather's face and seen dagur hiding behind him he slowly slid his foot on the ground then stepped far away from dagur out of the line of fire.

"oh come on dagur" a voice call from above as everyone looked up to see a girl in her twenties with blonde hair, green eyes and a big stomach, she was riding an orange gronkle.

beside her was a man on a black whispering death they landed near the other dragons as the man helped the women off her dragon.

"your really not afraid of your baby sister are you" she said walking towards him and kissing him on her cheek.

"queen mala i presume" heather said eyeing dagur as he gave a nervous chuckle and placed a hand on his wife's stomach "yep" he said "and berserker junior" queen mala then looked at him one, there is no way in hell i'm naming him that and two, what if it's a girl?" she said with a sly smile "berserkerette" dagur answered smiling back at his wife.

everyone laughed even heather who walked up to queen mala "well it's nice to finally meet you your majesty" heather said bowing "oh nonsense" mala said shaking her head while laughing "we're family so it's mala and stop the bowing" heather straightened up embarrassed.

"so how far along are you?" heather said trying to get along with her sister in law "8 months" mala said "i should be due sometime in the middle of next month," heather nodded and then noticed the man next to her mala followed her gaze and seen who she was looking at.

"this is throk, my second in command of defenders of the wing" she said as he came up and shook her hand "pleasure to meet your acquaintance" he said bowing heather smiled and blushed she had never been treated like this, fishlegs shook his head and growled slightly while hiccup laughed silently.

he then walked past her and went to hiccup "hiccup night we meet again" he said as they grabbed each others forearm and then slammed their foreheads together they both took a step back and shook their head and laughed "good to see you too throk" hiccup said.

"i heard you guys were planning on doing dragon ball and some races soon?" he asked "yep soon we're just kinda pushing it off for now" dj then took a step forward "yeah that reminds me ryker said we were only putting it off because we are afraid" he said "what?" hiccup said

"alright class is canceled for the rest of the day, get your dragons boys" he said getting on toothless as the rest of them got on their dragons and took off while hiccup reached into his saddle bag and pulled out a small horn.

"what's going on" gobber said coming up to mala and atali "calm down" mala said putting her hand on his shoulder "it's just they were insulted by another member so they're going to play some dragon ball" mala shouted the last part as hiccup started to blow into the horn.

all the villagers were currently doing their normal chores around the village when all of a sudden a horn was heard some dropped what they were doing and drew their weapons thinking it was an attack.

but soon they realized that this wasn't the war horn "yeah" one of them shouted jumping on his nadder and flew towards the bleachers at the arena followed by many other villagers both on foot or flying on dragons.

everyone looked down into the arena and watched as their chief and his council members walked towards ryker, viggo and two more ex hunters "heard you think we're putting this off because we're scared" hiccup said with a grin.

"well..." ryker said shrugging his shoulders grinning "alright" hiccup said "what do you want to do first races or dragon ball?" dagur said "ball" ryker shouted as the crowd roared and walked to a different set of bleachers that overlooked the ocean.

the berkians sat beside the wing maidens and the defenders of the wing in the area where the chief normally sat "so what is dragon ball?" fishlegs asked "well you see those two hoops?" atali said pointing to two hoops that were on the ends of poles in the ocean 100 feet up "yes" fishlegs said.

"well there's a ball and the other team has to get it in the other teams hoop" "alright" fishlegs said "trust me you have to see it for yourselves" she said watching as hiccup and ryker were on their dragons squaring off viggo had a male rumblehorn.

ryker on his female nightmare and the other two hunters had a female nadder and another male nightmare a guy standing on a gronkle came up beside ryker and hiccup "ready" he said glancing at ryker he nodded.

he looked back at hiccup "i know your ready" he said as hiccup grinned and nodded he then threw a ball up into the air and both people lunged off their dragons at it trying to grab it.

hiccup managed to barely grab it and tossed it back to dagur who then took off towards the hunters hoops on sleuther hiccup started to fall but toothless swooped under him and caught him.

meanwhile banshee was watching from the ground with her kids cheering their father and mate on in chirps and coos.

dagur and sleuther got to the goal but when they where about to throw it when the hunter on a nadder came in and swung a sword at dagur who blocked it with his own.

"is that legal" fishlegs asked "yep" mala said "as long as no long term damage is done to any rider or dragon you can do it" she said seeing viggo come up behind dagur he punched the ball tucked into dagur's arm and it flew out infront of him he then flew under and stole the ball and charged towards the goal as dagur cursed and pursued.

when he was about have way to the goal he was cut off by dj who swung his two swords at viggo who blocked them with his sword.

astrid wasn't paying much attention to the game "hey you okay" heather said noticing her friends face "yeah I'm fine" she responded "your still thinking about hiccup and atali aren't you."

"yeah" she said defeated heather sighed not knowing what to do "don't worry ruffnut is here to help" ruffnut said walking over to the blonde wing maiden despite her friends protests.

"hey sister" ruffnut said sitting on the bench beside the maiden "hello" she said little hostile atali told her about these berkians, what they did to hiccup and what they caused him to do throughout his runaway life.

"ruffnut" she said extending her hand "nadia" the maiden said shaking her hand "so listen natia, i got a friend who has a crush on hiccup and-" ruffnut said "you know you don't have to say you have a friend who has a crush on him, you can just say you have one" nadia said smiling a little.

"what no" ruffnut said blushing "i mean don't get me wrong i would bang him if i could but my friend would take my head off" ruffnut said.

"oh alright...so what are you telling me this for" nadia said "well my friend seen him hugging atali and thinks they are a couple."

"oh i see" nadia said "so are they?" "no they aren't" nadia said "oh great" ruffnut said about to get up and report back to heather and astrid "I'm sure dj would kill hiccup if they were" nadia said making ruff freeze.

"excuse me?" she said "dj, he and atali are a couple, have been ever since-" "heads up" someone yelled as they looked up and seen dj falling towards them "cover" nadia said ducking as dj landed on an unoccupied part of a bench going through it.

he stood up, jumped up onto the sitting part of the bench and growled slightly dusting the wood off him. he then looked at atali who had a worried look "aww don't worry baby" he said walking up to her and kissed her cheek "I'm fine."

"i know, you just worry me sometimes" she said "i told you" he said as titan came flying in close to the ground "no one can kill us but us" he said jumping on titan's spike and flew back into the game.

"ever since he saved her life a few months and they admitted their feelings" nadia finished standing up "okay" ruffnut said.

she walked back to a groaning astrid and a mad heather "didn't you hear us" she yelled "now atali's friend knows" "she won't tell so listen good news and bad news."

"what's the good?" heather asked "him and her, not a couple" "the bad?" astrid asked "now i got to find another third for my upcoming threesome that was supposed to be me, dj and eret" ruffnut said annoyed as heather and astrid shared a look.

a few hours later

"oh man" dj said cracking his back "i think that fall may have shook a few things loose" he then laughed as atali shot him a look from across the table in the great hall.

they had won both dragon ball and dragon races and now were about to discuss things with the other islands while other members of the tribe play.

"alright down to business" hiccup said sitting at the head of the table gobber and snotlout were also at the table.

gobber decided it was a good idea to represent berk he had confidence that stoick would accept hiccup and they would do this every year.

"so I'm sure you all know each other by now but for those who arrived late, this is gobber the belch and snotlout jorgensen" hiccup said gesturing to them who waved.

"okay so anything bad to report on your islands?" hiccup said "we've had a few remaining dragon flyers around the edge of the boundary we set otherwise they seem to be keeping to the agreement we made" a hunter said who came from an island a few away from the defenders.

everyone nodded "alright good" hiccup said "but remember if one crosses the boundary you know what to do" gobber and snotlout exchanged glances before gobber raised his hand.

"yes gobber?" hiccup said "who are the dragon flyers?" "oh right i uh i never told you guys they were a group of hunters who used singetails as weapons, working for a man i would be very happy never seeing again even if it was in the deepest parts of hell" hiccup said voice becoming darker.

"they used chains and whips to break the dragons and then forced them to attack us" mala said.

"and all of them worked for a drago bludvist and krogan" dj said as hiccup stayed silent and put his head down.

"so what happened" snotlout asked "krogan and the flyers, they wanted out of the war between us and drago so made an agreement with us they stay up to the north area and never return to the archipelago or just outside it where the wing maidens and the defenders of the wing live" eret said.

"and if they did..." dagur started but finished by dragging his thumb across his neck "and drago?" snotlout said

"he's dead" hiccup finally spoke looking up "i killed him" gobber and snotlout stayed quiet after that, too afraid to speak the rest of the conversations were about the upcoming winter and if they had enough supplies.

after that everyone left dagur and mala went to his house for the night and dj and atali went to his the rest either went to the guest bedrooms or slept outside with their dragons.

that left hiccup, snotlout and gobber sitting in an empty great hall gobber then moved into dj's seat which was the closest to hiccup

"did you really kill him, hiccup" he asked "yes and many more" he said without even looking up gobber let out a sigh "i figured you would've ended up having too but hearing is still a shock" gobber said.

"yeah...hey can i ask you guys something that's been going through my head for a while" hiccup asked.

"anything" gobber said "how'd you guys know where my other island was and who we were" hiccup said "johann told us" snotlout said as hiccup visibility flinched.

"he was at your island" hiccup said "yeah..why wouldn't he be" snotlout said confused hiccup was silent for a moment until he broke out in a grin.

"oh nothing just last i heard he was traveling up north for a while it'll be good to see him again" hiccup said "yes it would and i think that's where he was he wasn't seen for a few months this last visit was the first time in months we seen him" gobber said while hiccup nodded

"well i think it's time we head for the hay" gobber said "alright I'm gonna finish my drink and I'm right behind you guys" hiccup said.

they said their goodbyes hiccup stayed seated in the hall until they were gone his grinning face then went into a hateful scowl as he pulled back his armor up to his shoulder to reveal a long scar on the inside of his bicep leading down to his elbow "johann" he muttered in a dangerous, deadly tone.
