- Toothless's Nest, New Berk.

Toothless stretches at the rising sun after he left his almost finished hut. Everything was done except the roof and entry, but he'll work on that later.

He made his way to Gobber's shop, and found Hiccup at his bench with Einn's map pinned on a wall. Toothless studied it curiously as Hiccup was studying Einn's old blue tail fin, and took notes.

*Just up from good sleep?* Toothless chuckled.

"Yup, I have plenty of free time to squeeze in a big project." Hiccup smiled, and held out the blue tail fin towards Toothless, "You know what? I'm kinda curious about Einn's old pal, he made this with just sheep hide, pieces of wood, and maybe a Thunderdrum's paint.".

*You'll make a better one like mine, but also wanna mirror the old one too, don't you?* Toothless looked at the worn old blue tail.

Hiccup nodded, "I'll get the materials ready by tomorrow, and then rearrange the schedule with Astrid. Need to visit at least once a day.".

*Agreed, remember how many times you fixed the first one?* Toothless picked up his solo tail in his mouth, and dropped it in front of Hiccup.

Toothless counted Hiccup's laugh as a reply as he watched his rider put the solo tail on for him.

*Take care.* He gave Hiccup a hug before he looked at the map one last time.

He rushed out of the building, and then bumped right into a green dragon.

*Morning Toothless.* Barf, and Belch offered him 2 fishes, *Can we hang out with you? Ruff, and Tuff are kinda… busy lately.*

*Sure! I'll go explore, actually.* Toothless replied as Luna landed before him.

*I accepted the invitation.* She groomed herself indignantly.

Toothless followed the wind with his friends and future-mate. Luna looked around curiously as the smoke started to consume them.

*Can you tell us where we are going?* Luna warbled at him.

*We're following the map your dad gave us yester-*

*Awww, meet the parents!* Barf smirked.

*Can't wait for the wedding bell, and Beta Haddock.* Belch added.

Toothless shook his head and looked away. Can't I have a peaceful day for once? He thought as he waited for Luna's rage.

*What is wedding bell?* Luna asked curiously, *And why would a fish be beta?*.

*Ooh, he hasn't told you his last name yet?* Belch laughed, *It's Haddock! Toothless Haddock!*.

*Haddock is my last name, like Thorstons are theirs,* Toothless explained as he looked at the twin, *It tells who's our family, placed at the end of our name. Traditionally, humans had it by birth, and marriage after the wedding. I got mine after Stoick adopted me.*

*Same, Hildie is the best mom!* Belch smiled as he spoke of Mrs. Thorston.

Luna nodded, and Toothless tilted his head at her, wondering how much of the culture she grasped. He remembered his 16th winter, Stoick came home with a serious face on him, and showed Hiccup a paper. His rider jumped in joy, and showed it to him, telling him what 'Toothless Haddock' meant. Even he didn't understand much then, but he remembered holding the large man, and his rider close.

*Oh, and the wedding bell is a decoration, gal.* Barf smiled at Luna, then smirked at Toothless, *It is used in human mating ceremonies called weddings!*.

*HUMAN MATE IN PUBLIC!?* Luna's eyes went wide.

*NO!* Toothless roared quickly, *It's a ceremony for mates to promise their love for each other before the gods, and celebrate their future with family, and friends.*.

*Hehehe, this is fun.* Barf said to Belch.

*Welcome to Berk! Oh! New Berk actually,* Belch chuckled, *Beta Luminara Haddock.*

*Oh, skedaddle aff! You son of a-*

POOF!

Toothless flew right into a sea stack before he could finish his cursing. Luna quickly landed next to him as he stood up and shook his head.

*That really came out of nowhere.* Belch chuckled as he landed with Barf.

Toothless stepped back from the sea stack he flew into, and jumped back in shock at a skeleton he stepped on. The Night Fury tilted his head, and gently flapped his wings. The dragons gasped in shock as the sea stack slowly turned into a stone arch. Toothless looked up at the faint symbol in the middle at the top of the arch.

*Woah! Another tribe? Let's go!* Barf & Belch rushed through the arch.

Toothless quickly followed after them, *Wait! We don't know if they are hostile or…*.

Barf and Belch stood in horror as Toothless took in the sight before them. A river of fog lingered around the remains of a small village, shattered, and burnt with the skeleton of dragons on the ground.

*They're riders.* Belch looked at a skeleton of a human on a dragon's back.

*It's not dragons.* Luna looked at the remain of buildings, *Something attacked this place before it was burnt.*

*Or some men.* Toothless looked at a few large mossy rocks on the ground… catapult rocks.

Barf, and Belch surveyed around with Luna, dead crystals were stabbed on the dirt around the village, almost like a dead barrier. Toothless entered the last house near the cliff, the bed was already just a memory, and so was the stone slab at the opposite side. Toothless looked at the back exit, and took a step.

Clank!

Toothless stepped back, and looked at the ground as Luna made her way inside. The 2 Furies looked at the thick rusted metal disk on the ground; it has the face of a Viking on the left side and a dragon on the right.


- Haddock House, New Berk.

Astrid hummed a lullaby as she sketched the designs of the new arena. Hiccup walked out of the kitchen, and handed her a mug of hot cocoa. Astrid smiled, and put the sketches away, scooting over for her fiancé.

The couple had their hot drinks and cuddles on the couch near the hearth, and then a knock came from the door.

"I'll get it, babe." Astrid got up, and opened the door, "Hey! Toothless, Luna!"

*Can we come in?* Toothless asked.

Astrid nodded and stepped back, letting the Furies inside. Hiccup smiled, and greeted them but also noticed something in Toothless' mouth.

*We found it in a ruin from Einn's map*

Hiccup's face turned grim the moment the Night Fury placed the thick, rusted metal disk on the table.

"Another fallen tribe?" Astrid looked at the disk curiously, "Have you ever heard of them?".

Hiccup nodded, and picked up his mug, "Let's move to the attic.".

- Attic, Haddock House.

A candle was lit after Astrid, and the Furies took their seats on the floor. Hiccup opened a wooden chest and pulled out an old book that was tied along with a roll of papers, and notes.

"After Bucket replaced the portrait in the Great Hall, dad told me another secret of Hamish the 2nd." Hiccup untied the rope.


- Haddock House, Old Berk, VI Years ago.

Toothless walked up the staircase to Hiccup's bedroom loft as Stoick and Hiccup were seated by the fire.

"My father was the firstborn of Hamish the 2nd, but what the world didn't know was: his wife, my grandmother, got pregnant again 20 years later." Stoick handed Hiccup a set of drawings, "He retired, and then sailed west with his son after his wife died in childbirth. They settled down on a small island called 'Sub-Berk', which I'm pretty sure that name was the boy's idea."

Stoick chuckled as Hiccup looked at the half torn paper, the young viking in the sketch smiled back at him as if it's his reflection. He wasn't surprised by the man's decision, his childhood wasn't quite ideal, so for back then? It would be a nightmare, especially with the dragon's war still going on.

"He still kept in contact with our family after he settled there with the boy, they managed to establish a small tribe, where all members were runts, outcasts, and forgotten by their old tribes.".

Hiccup looked at the sketches of Hamish II's new neighbors, none of these Vikings would be what Berkians call 'Vikings'.

"They trained dragons." Hiccup smiled at the sketches of Vikings and dragons together, "They even discovered what people believe is The Hidden World.".

But something wasn't right, everyone had a drawing with their dragons, but where's the boy's? He had only one drawing, the half torn one Hiccup just saw.

"I sailed there when I was 18, the day before I started the chief training…"

Young Stoick had his eyes keenly focused ahead as he sailed toward an Island with his best friend… back when life hadn't given them a beard yet. The blonde man dropped the anchor after Stoick nodded.

Stoick stepped on the beach as Gobber waited on the boat, eyes full of hope as he ran toward the stone arch… but the fire in his eyes burnt out the moment he saw what's before him.

"But everything was burnt to the ground…"

Older Stoick closed his eyes, "By men.".

"How come no one knows about this?" Hiccup asked.

"This story is known only by Haddocks, Hiccup." Stoick answered, "It's the story of Hiccup The Forgotten."


- Attic, Haddock House, New Berk.

Toothless and Luna looked at the papers curiously. Astrid picked up the half torn drawing of Hiccup The Forgotten.

"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Astrid gently touched at the torn edge as she looked at the smiling boy in the drawing.

"I am." Hiccup replied, "But I can't confirm it, though.".

"An island of rejected malnourished never fit in runts," Astrid looked at the drawings of the scrawny Vikings and their dragons, "Small and vulnerable with less than 20 people, and only 1 dragon for each with no allies. Best hunters target."

"An island of rejected, malnourished and runts that never fit in," Astrid looked at the drawings of the scrawny Vikings and their dragons, "Small and vulnerable with less than 20 people, and only 1 dragon for each with no allies. Best target for hunters."

*Whatever happened, it's the past.* Luna said as Astrid handed the drawing back to Hiccup.

*You're right, even if we're right… he's gone.* Toothless watched his rider put the stuff away, *But at least we could give him closure.*.

Hiccup and Astrid went back to the living room with the 2 Furies. Toothless hugged his rider after the auto tail was out.

"See you later, bud." Hiccup let go of him, and then looked at Luna, "Safe flight home.".

Luna nodded gracefully, and flew away into the moonlight as Toothless ran back to his nest. Hiccup and Astrid smiled, and went back inside their house… continuing their cuddling cocoa mug night.


Hamish the 2nd was Stoick's grandfather, and Hiccup The Forgotten was his uncle, but he's only 3 years older than him though xD He died when he was 21.

We all know our Hiccup is the 3rd, but who's the 1st and 2nd? I had a theory that Hamish II might be the 1st Hiccup, so Hiccup the Forgotten is the 2nd!
