Adopted reupload and continuation of the story "How she found out" by TigerLilytheWild. Since returning to Berk Valka wanted to know how her son became who he was now. So when a dream shows her the story of Hiccup meeting Toothless and saving the whole island she welcomes it with open arms.

31. Chapter 31

I know. It once again took eternity for this chapter to be uploaded. Well, at least now it's here and you can enjoy it.

Shout-out:

Angel Talon: Well, no. When I'm writing this story I see her sitting in an empty cinema, where she's free to let all those emotions out without waking anyone up :-D

Kapitel 31

The complete screen is filled with smoke, a shadow appearing out of it.

STOICK

„Hiccup! Hiccup! Son!"

He looks around and finds Toothless, lying unconscious a few meters away.

„Oh no!" I felt fear filling me.

STOICK

„Hiccup."

He runs towards the dragon and notices the saddle and artificial tailfin being completely torn. Hiccup is nowhere to be seen.

STOICK

„Oh, son... I did this..."

I try to swallow my tears, not succeeding in getting rid of the lump in my throat.

Stoick drops to his knees, clearly shaken. Behind him the Berkians approach.

STOICK

„I'm so...I'm so sorry..."

As if he'd been waiting for those words, Toothless opens his wings to reveal his rider.

I couldn't stop the tears anymore. Hopefully I was only crying in my dreams and not in reality.

STOICK

„Hiccup!"

Stoick cradles his son and takes off his helmet to listen for a heartbeat.

STOICK

„Oh, he's alive! You brought him back alive!"

„Thank the gods."

The vikings around cheer. Astrid looks clearly relieved. Stoick places a hand on Toothless' head while Gobber slowly approaches.

STOICK

„Thank you... for saving my son."

GOBBER

„Well, you know... most of him."

Stoick looks at him questioningly.

„Does this mean …?" I trail of.
