How You Doing Insane Gang!

I promise this chapter will be longer, I just feel like if I skip too much of the journey then this story would feel too short.

Disclaimer: I don't own HTTYD.

The gang checked into the motel, the pricing wasn't outrageous but still expensive due to the area.

Once they put their suitcases down, the twins and Snotlout basically dragged the rest out to enjoy some of the nightlife.

"How many floors do you think are in these big ass buildings?" Snotlout asked as he pointed up to one for example.

Tuffnut wrapped an arm around his neck. "Dude at least 12."

Lout groaned and rolled his eyes, pushing the lanky man's arm off of him.

"Well, he isn't wrong." Fishlegs mended.

Toothless elbowed Hiccup in the side, "Where are we even going?"

"Where ever the twins want to go."

Astrid saddled up to Hiccup and laced their fingers together. "What is there to do around here Fishlegs?"

"Well, Vegas is known for their spectacular water fountain shows and sometimes there are concerts being held around the venue." He told them, popping up to walk with them.

"How can drunk people walk around here? I think I would die from seeing all these flashing lights." Ruffnut concluded.

Tuffnut grabbed a hold of her shoulder, "Look over there!", yanking her away from her thoughts, Tuffnut practically carried her to the small fountain display.

"Wow, this is some water show, soooo spectacular, way to go Fishface." Snotlout muttered sarcastically, he then crossed his arms.

"Oh be quiet Snotlout, there are more displays on the strip to see."

People started to run ahead of them, seemingly congregating to one spot way in front of a large hotel.

Toothless pointed. "What's going on up there?"

Fishlegs squealed and clapped his hands together in excitement. "Ooooh, it's the fountains of Bellagio." "It's known to be the best."

"Well it must be starting soon, let's go."

A large crowd had already formed, phones poised to capture every second of the show. Water shot out in a coordinated fashion, misting the spectators in the front row; they cheered.

The gang oohed and awed.

"Was that everything you hoped for Tuffnut?" Astrid asked.

He nodded his head, still unmoving from his spot. "I'm gonna jump in it."

Toothless blocked his path. "No!" "No, you are not jumping in the fountain."

"But why not?" He whined.

"We don't need you getting arrested." Hiccup stated.

They headed back to the hotel with Tuffnut sulking all the way.

Running a towel through his hair, he exited the bathroom. Astrid was already in bed reading something on her phone.

"What do you think of this trip so far?" He asked his girlfriend.

"We haven't hit any roadblocks, which is surprising, to say the least, so it's going better than I expected.

Thumping down beside her and detaching his prosthetic, he sighed. "What if we get there and he isn't the White Knight?"

"Then we just have to keep searching."

He turned his head to face her.

"I hate to do that to you guys."

Putting her phone down, she met his gaze. "If I learned anything so far babe, it's that we're partners adn the rest of the group will follow you anywhere." "They trust your leadership and guidance more than anything."

Hiccup pecked her forehead. "Thanks, Astrid."

The sun just peaked over the horizon when they get moving again.

Las Vegas seemed to be the only bright spot in Nevada as the rest of the state resume to be nothing but rock and dust.

Driving the back roads were soothing, like an untouched frontier. There wasn't even any road markings or signs. They traveled fast way above any recommended speed limit.

It was peaceful except for the boiling temperature. The dust mixed with the heat created a haze that reminded the gang of hell.

Finally, what felt like eons, they were exiting the state.

Once out of Nevada the scenery changed drastically, coming up on the highway full of cars and bikes.

A welcome to Oregon sing stretched across a lone building. As customary, they pulled over to take a group picture to send back home to the family.

They turned off from the congested highway into a more scenic route. large redwoods and pine trees leered over them on both sides of the two-way road. Cars and motorcycles occasionally passed by.

The ride turned from hot and dry to wet and chilly. The rain was drizzling lightly, the sky was overcast instead of the beaming sun shining down like they were used to in Nevada.

"Okay, I know I was complaining about the heat before, but this isn't what I had in mind." Snotlout grumbled.

Hiccup, hunched over his handlebars, straightened as though he had an epiphany. He turned his head to the side to look at his brother.

"Hey bud, isn't Brandr here?"

"Why would Brandr be in Oregon for?" Astrid questioned before Toothless could answer.

"I think he has family up here." Hiccup told her.

Toothless nodded, lifting up his visor. "Yeah, I think so, go ahead and text him about it."

He pushed his visor up and pulled his riding glove off with his teeth. Exiting out of the map, he pulled up his messages. He scrolled past Astrid's name and the gang group chat to reach Brandr's name. (I DONT CONDONE TEXTING WHILE DRIVING WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE NOT DRIVING)

Typing with one hand and glancing up ever so often, the blue box was sent. A grayish white text box appeared in an instant.

Yeah? Why you ask?

Smiling, he texted back a teasing response.

Where are you staying right now in Oregon?

WTH?! ARE YOU HERE RIGHT NOW? WHY ARE YOU HERE?

Yep, I'm here but I'm not telling you anything until we can meet. Know any good places?

UGH, I HATE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW YOU SOB...there is a famous place the locals like to go to it's called Wildwood Cafe.

Hiccup sent a winking emoji.

Got it, you're lucky it's not too far, I'm omw.

Brandr just sent a thumbs up emoji.

Pushing down on his home buttom in quick succession, he swiped up on his app and brought up the map again to change the destination.

With his visor and glove back in their respective places, he addressed the rest of the members.

"Change of plans gang, we are going to meet Brandr for some food." "He thinks it's just me so it will be a good surpirse."

Tuffnut and Ruffnut high fived. "Sweet! Food!"

Sorry, this took so long guys, I didn't know how to progress this chapter but I think I have a handle on how I want the rest of this story to go.

Stay Crazy.
