Me: Hey everyone, how is your new year's been going?
So far - no ER or hospital stays for me! I mean sure I still get a few pains here and there, but it's not that painful as it was before. Sadly, my strength hasn't return to me so I get really tried as of late, but that's not stopping me to finish this and to upload the long waited squeal to this fanfiction!
I'm going to get some help to get back some of my strength back but not sure when, though I will let you know when I do. I'm really grateful for all of your support and patience you guys are giving me. So let's begin – To those who reviewed: Mariah (2x), Shadowriser609, lilyflower101, Shadescribe, Fanfic Hunter (3x), Legodood93, Viper4K, Phoenix Flametail and GuyUnderABridge – I thank thy for your awesome reviewers!
Shadowriser609, Phoenix Flametail, GuyUnderABridge: I'm glad you guys are loving the re-write and enjoying it. I hope you'll enjoy this one too.
lilyflower101: Yes, Hiccup will get to meet his mother but not now. He'll get to meet her the same age as HYTTD 2 but in a different manner.
Shadescribe: I too love different scenarios as well. Actually, that is how I came up with mine but in the others that I have read, Hiccup ends up going back home or ends up with Astrid, but there is no connection (minus the crush that Hiccup had) between them. Aritrd only got to see the 'true strength' in Hiccup after learning what he's been doing and after the dragon ride, but other than that, nothing.
I don't like how the main characters get paired up with the main female character in any movies, TV shows and anime…it's quite annoying in my opinion. Well, hope you enjoy my small ranting, now enjoy the new chapter!
Fanfic Hunter (3x): -_- I'm trying to keep a schedule of the best I can to update my stories – all of them. The difficult part is planning out the chapter before typing it and looking up the proper items and history of Scotland/Vikings, I'm a quite historical manic here.
And you're welcome. Your reviews are my support so in way, I want to give some gratitude back. I hope your exams are finished…and your brain cells have not been completely fried. I'm pretty good in math but never had physics…but then again, I was pretty sick when I was a bit younger so I attend in my last year of high school in home as the school send a teacher… no final exams for me. If you studied the best you can, then I know you did great. Though sad to say, I wouldn't be updated my Danny Phantom fanfic as I am still deciding which episode will be the last one for Season one so please do wait for that fanfic, alright? Please enjoy this update and it's fine about the weird 'first' review, everyone post something weird and not realize it until the last second.
Mariah (2x): Mm…That's a pretty good idea, a jealous Astrid? Has that been done before? Oh, this is going to be good. I'll think about it, thanks for the suggestion and please enjoy the update.
Legodood93: I never broken anything but I do get bored just staying home and bedridden – PS3, here I come! Or 3ds, either one will do. Hope you enjoy reading this update as well.
Viper4K: Thanks so much. As for the 'big time skip', in the original, there is one but that's why I'm re-writing it and the title explains it all, the extended version. I'm pretty soon going to add a few things from the TV shows and where Hiccup/Ciel will be finding new dragons but still trying to see which ones they will find…but most definitely, they will find the lost island of the Night Furies and what's left of them.
Thanks for the support and please, enjoy the updated chapter!
Well, all ranting aside – enjoy the chapter, everyone!
Hiccup watched a few businessmen offering their services to him while a few noblemen were introducing their familiars, mostly their daughters to him. When one was about to suggest that Hiccup should dance with his eight year old daughter, someone interrupted.
"Victor, you made it! Liza, lovely as ever and this must be your son – greetings Ciel, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Riley Elliott, businessman and trade owner. My lovely wife, Luna and our little flower, Rosaline," said a man with short black hair and dark brown eyes.
"My Liza, such a handsome young man you have there," said the woman with long braided, blond hair and light gray eyes. Luna looked down, "Rosy, don't be shy."
Hiccup saw a young girl standing behind her mother. She had short blond hair with long braided bangs and gray eyes. She was wearing a silk yellow dress with a flower design on the bottom, a matching headset and a flower pendent around her neck.
"Hello young Lord, it's very nice to meet you."
Hiccup smiled, "Ciel and it's nice to meet you as well."
Rose blushed before hiding her face onto her mother's gown. Luna giggled, "Forgive her; she's quite shy. Not much children around her age where we live or when we travel."
"That's alright," said Hiccup.
Luna smiled before looking around, "Dear, where's Jorunr?"
Riley frowned, "I thought she was with you."
"That girl…takes after her blasted father," murmured Luna. She sighed, "Rose stay with Ciel while we look for your cousin."
"Why don't you ask a guard to help you?" suggested Hiccup as Rose walked over to him.
"That's not a bad idea, thank you – Riley!" said Luna. The businessman nodded before the two left to find their niece. That's when Victor's elites were heading towards them.
Rose tightened her hold onto Hiccup's arm. The auburn teen whispered, "Not used to huge crowds, I take?"
"No, not really," replied Rose, softly. "Where I live, other teenagers make fun of me for being a weirdo plant lover. The adults don't help as much either."
"Well, I'm not much of a plant lover but I do draw a few. If you ever come back here, I can show them to you," offered Hiccup.
Rose smiled, happily before yelping in surprise when Hiccup was tackled by Jack. He grinned, "Hey there, glad to know you're here."
"Alright, just get off of me," said Hiccup, trying to push Jack away. That's when he notices Irvin; Jack's father was doing the same thing with his father.
"Like the saying goes 'like father, like son', stated Scot, walking over to Ciel's right. That's when he notice Rose, "And who is this lovely young lady?"
"Rosaline Elliot, daughter from a top Trader owner," replied Hiccup. "I agreed to watch her while the Elliot's look for their niece."
Scot nodded as Olette lean over to them. She smirked, "Don't look now but Jack's father is making a fool out of himself…again."
Hiccup and the others turn to see Irvin, laughing like a mad man before getting hit by a woman with dark red hair. She was glaring and had her hands on her hips, "Irvin Delevan McKnight, behave yourself! You're showing bad manners to your son!"
"Jack, you really need to get a leash for your father," said Olette, annoyingly. Hiccup took note that the older redhead must be Olette's mother. The auburn teen could see where Olette got her fiery temper from.
Jack was about to snap when he spotted someone familiar coming towards them. He made a face, "Drama alert, here comes Cynthiana."
Hiccup turned to see where Jack was looking before wincing. Walking with Cyrus was a teenage girl with dark blond, braided hair and dark green eyes. She was wearing a flashy gold gown that's twice her size, many décor, about four necklaces and much other gold jewelry on her arms.
"Jeez, how much did that dress cost?!" said Olette. Hiccup and the others thought the same thing. While Cyrus walked over to the other adults, Cynthiana walked over to them with a sneer.
Hiccup was strangely reminded of his cousin upon seeing her.
"Oh Olette, did the store ran out of better gowns or…did it come from the hand-me-down store?" questioned Cynthiana, smugly. She laughed, "But I say – you do look great, dress as a peasant!"
Olette's face turns red. She was wearing smooth linen, cotton green dress with elegant ruffles, a matching poly lace up bodice with a bow on the left and a matching white cotton underskirt with tiers of ruffles. Olette gritted her teeth, "My mother made this dress, you wretch! We got some Russian tailors for help!"
"Then those tailors did a hideous job," sneer Cynthiana.
Olette was about to punch Cynthiana's face when Scot stop her. He glares at her, "That was cold Cynthiana and you know it."
"I'm just trying to help her impress a future lord but with that god awful dress, she has no chance," said Cynthiana before showing off her gown. "Compare to my magnificent dress…well I had to guilt my father like always. The motherless one always gets him."
"Now, that's just heartless," said Jack, angrily. "How dare you use your late mother's death like that? That's just disrespect!"
"Yea, whatever," said Cynthiana without care. That's when she saw her father and Victor coming to them. She pulled a fake smile, "Hi daddy and good evening Lord Ryder."
"Ah, I see you have met the General's son, my little princess," said Cyrus, happily as Victor walked over to Hiccup and placed his hand over the auburn's shoulder.
'No, my plans are ruined! I totally made a fool of myself in front of my future husband!' thought Cynthiana, widening her eyes. She bit her lip, "Y-Yes daddy. Young lord, it was an honor to meet you."
"Indeed…Lady McFarlane," said Hiccup without care.
"Why don't you two dance together?" suggested Cyrus, playfully before spotting someone. "Oi, Alex! Evening Lady Marie and young Pandora how are you tonight?"
Hiccup tensed up a bit upon seeing Alexander and his wife, Marie. The woman standing next to Alex had long wavy, white hair and icy, cold blue eyes.
Alexander offered a smile, "General Ryder, young lord, good evening. Ciel, let me introduce you to my beautiful wife, Lady Marie McClelland nee Lloyd and you already meet my daughter."
Pandora was wearing a snowy – blue gown, a white belt around her waist, a matching headset and a blue heart pendent around her neck.
"Nice to see you Pandora and it's a pleasure to meet you as well, Lady McClelland," greeted Hiccup. "Pandora has helped me adjust in school. This is my first time attending one."
"I see. Well, I'm glad to know that my daughter had some uses," said Marie, coldly.
"Um, sure," said Hiccup, noticing how tense Pandora was being near her mother.
"Well then my lady, let's dance the night away!" said Francis, happily to his wife before grabbing her hand.
Mary glared, "You better not drag me Francis."
Francis laughed, nervously, "But of course not…Olette have a nice time with your friends."
Olette nodded, "Of course father, but please do be careful. We don't want another incident like the last time, do we?"
Francis paled, "Of course."
Olette giggled before seeing Cynthiana dragging Hiccup to the dance floor. She turned and glared at the others, "Why didn't any of you stop that wretch from grabbing Ciel?"
"Wait – what? Damn it!" cursed Scot and Jack. Rose and Pandora shook their heads before helping Hiccup getting away from Cynthiana.
After half an hour, away from Cynthiana's grasp, Hiccup was dancing with few noblemen's daughters that were either younger or older than he was. When the auburn teen finished dancing with a girl name Gabrielle, he saw the spoiled blond coming towards him again.
Hiccup looked around before finding a way out of the ballroom which leads to the balcony. He sighs in relief, leaning over at the side of the balcony before calmly looking up at the night sky. The auburn teen stayed there for a few minutes but as he was heading back inside, he heard Pandora's mother voice.
Carefully, Hiccup leaned over of the balcony and looked down. There, below him was Pandora and her mother who was glaring at her. That's when Hiccup saw Marie slapped her daughter on the right cheek.
"How dare you behave like that?!" scolded Marie. She gritted her teeth, "If you're going to represent my bloodline, then you must show it! Act like a proper lady, do you understand me?!"
Pandora, holding onto her bruised cheek, nodded her head. She bit her lip, holding her tears, "Yes, madam. I'm sorry for disgracing your noble bloodline. It won't happen again."
"Never mind, just go inside and have the Ryder's notice you! Let them believe you are a worthy…well somewhat decent candidate to marry Ciel, got it?" sneer Marie, coldly.
"Yes, madam," whispered Pandora, softly. Hiccup watched as Pandora's mother walked back inside without saying anything to her daughter with a smug look on her face. That's when he heard a soft cry, it was Pandora.
"Why? Why me? Everything I do is not worthy for her! Why can't my father just divorce that evil, heartless witch! I can't stand her and her family!" sobbed Pandora, angrily.
Hiccup sighed, knowing what Pandora was going through. He saw Pandora cleaning her eyes with a handkerchief before composing herself and return back inside. The auburn teen thought for a moment before going back inside and saw Pandora nearby a glass window. Making sure Cynthiana wasn't nearby, he walked over to her.
"Hey Pandora, how's your evening?" asked Hiccup.
"It's – I mean, it's great! Thanks for asking Ciel," replied Pandora. "…how's yours? You must feel a bit…out of place since this is your first time attending a ball."
"It's…actually pretty good, minus avoiding Cynthiana and some noblemen," answered Hiccup.
"Yes, she can be rather…persistent when she wants something really bad," said Pandora. She sighed, "You know she and I used to be close…when we were younger and back then she was a lot nicer too. I guess…her mother's death really did change her."
"Cynthiana, nice?" questioned Hiccup.
Pandora laughed, "It shocked me too when she suddenly changed after her mother's death though…it doesn't help that her father gives almost everything to her."
"She's that spoiled?" said Hiccup. He shook his head, "Hey…do you want to dance? You'll be doing me a favor if you do."
Pandora looked around and saw Cynthiana not too far from them. She turned and smiled, "I would love to Ciel. I'm not going to let you suffer about her mumblings of her wardrobe."
Hiccup lifted up his eyebrow, "She can't have that much to talk about, can she?"
"She gets a new set of gowns and shoes at the end of the week," stated Pandora. That's when she smirked, "But someday, her spending will bite her in the butt."
Hiccup laughed before the two begin dancing when a smooth and light music started. Meanwhile, Anna just finished dancing with another suitable husband – or jerk in her opinion – and went over to the buffet table. She was about to relax when she spotted Hiccup dancing with Pandora.
"Hey Princess, have you seen Ciel?" asked Jack as Olette was walking beside him. Anna just pointed over to her left where Hiccup was at.
"Looks like Ciel is having a blast with Pandora," said Olette.
"Um, where's Scot?" asked Anna.
"He's dancing with a girl name Rose," replied Jack, pointing over where Scot and Rose were at. He smirked, "But I get the feeling he likes her."
"At least Rose is not like Cynthiana," said Olette. The redhead made an annoyed face, "I have no doubt that Ciel is going to be receiving a mountain loads of marriage contracts after this."
Anna widened her eyes, "Hiccup wouldn't agree to that!"
"Well, his fate is sealed the moment the Ryder's see a decent candidate for Ciel to marry," said Jack. "But I know for sure that the General wouldn't discuss this without talking to Ciel first before making his decision."
"As long as his future betroth is not Cynthiana, he'll be fine," said Olette before frowning, "Unless he gets a fiancé that is his opposite."
Anna gasped, "I – I got to go! I'll see you two later!"
"What's her problem?" wondered Jack, tapping his chin. "You don't think…"
"…there's a chance she is but she better do it quick," said Olette.
Jack nodded before offering his hand, "One more dance before the banquet."
Olette blushed, slightly, "S-Sure, why not."
After an hour, the music stopped and a maid announced the food was ready. Hiccup bowed to Pandora and went over to find his parents where their seats were close to Charles and Marianna. He was about to sit next to Anna when he felt arms around his own, it was Cynthiana.
"Oh Ciel, I have been looking for you everywhere," said Cynthiana, sweetly. She smiled over to the Ryder's, "Hello Lord Ryder and good evening, Lady Ryder. How are you fairing tonight?"
"Quite alright dear, thank you for asking," replied Liza. She smiled, "My, you have grown such a lovely child. You're a splitting image of your mother."
"As I have been told," said Cynthiana, taking a seat by Hiccup. Annoying Anna, she continued, "I do miss my mama but I know she would want me to keep on going."
Hiccup twitched his eyes, seeing how easily the blond teen can make the adults believe her.
"Well, maybe someday your father will find another mother for you," said Liza.
"Um, sure," murmured Cynthiana before placing her head onto Hiccup's shoulder. She whispered, "No need a stepmother once we are married, Ciel."
Hiccup widened his eyes, "M-Married?! What do you mean?"
"Yes, married. Once my daddy makes the contract and the General agrees the terms – which he will, we will be engaged until we're eighteen."
-Anna choked on her drink, 'Why that little – I'm not going to lose my only friend to her! I understand Hiccup more than anyone around here!'
"Don't you think it's a bit early for marriage," said Hiccup.
"Nope; earlier, the better," replied Cynthiana. She smiled, "That's what my mama always said to me. She told me how she married my daddy at age sixteen."
'That young,' thought Hiccup before recalling his biological parent's marriage.
On the other end of the table, Pandora was glaring at Cynthiana. She gritted her teeth, 'That little wretch. No one is going to stand in my way to get what I deserve.'
After the banquet, Cynthiana was with Hiccup and wouldn't let him out of her sight. The auburn teen was getting annoyed about the countless of gowns Cynthiana had. Hiccup was ready to snap when he heard Anna's voice. They turned to see Anna standing behind them.
"Excuse me Cynthiana, but Ciel promise me a dance after dinner."
Cynthiana frowned, "…well, I guess you can since he did make a promise – but he better come back to me afterwards, Princess."
"Of course," said Anna before dragging Hiccup away from the blond. Once they were at the dance floor, Hiccup sighed in relief.
"Thanks Anna, I was so close onto snapping at her," said Hiccup.
"I figured as much," said Anna as they started to dance. She bit her lip, "You do realize that after this, you'll get multiple marriage contracts from different nobles."
"Oh Thor," murmured Hiccup.
Anna was about to speak when Jack popped out of Hiccup's right. Jack placed his arm around Hiccup's shoulder, "Nice job Princess. Come on Ciel, you need to meet with Jamie. He just came back from visiting his grandparents."
"Jamie?" said Hiccup.
"Jameson Avalon, son of Vincent," replied Olette, hitting Jack before pulling him away from Hiccup. She pushed him away, "Let him be. Ciel can meet Jameson after his dance with the Princess…a good reason for you not to return with that wretch."
Hiccup smiled and nodded his head. His two friends walked away to deal with Cynthiana while the auburn teen continued dancing with Anna.
In the morning, Hiccup was eating breakfast with his mom but his dad hasn't woken up.
Liza sighed in annoyance, "That man…he drank too much last night. He's going to be late training those new recruits." She got up and walked over to an open window, "Storm, would you mind waking up your lazy partner?"
The elder dragon nodded before flying upward.
Hiccup watched his mother return back to her seat as a maid placed fresh baked bread on the table when they heard a loud shout coming from upstairs.
"Oh good, he's awake," said Liza. "You better hurry up Ciel or you're going to be late for lessons today."
Hiccup hurried up eating as his dad entered from the hallway entrance. Victor gritted his teeth, "Liza, was it really necessary to use Storm to wake me up?!"
"It was that or have a maid to pour cold water over your head," said Liza. She closed her eyes,
"Besides if you don't hurry, you're going to be…"
"Late! Merlin's beard!" said Victor, dashing back upstairs. He shouted, "Pack my breakfast to go and have my dragon ready, Liza! Have a good day at school Ciel!"
Liza giggled, "Oh your father can be quite a handful sometimes but I do love the man deeply. Well, have a good day Ciel. Will you be having lessons at the castle today?"
"Yea, Queen Marianna is having a tutor teach me about…contracts, marriage contracts," replied Hiccup. "Seeing how many nobles and businessmen were so interested in me. She thinks there'll be contracts made within days."
Liza nodded, "She may be right, seeing how well-known your father is. Adopted or not, if the nobles or businessmen sees you worthy, they will offer up their services or arrange a marriage to increase their status."
"You got to be kidding me?!" said Hiccup. He sighed, "I don't know any of those girls and the ones that I met last night were either rude or spoiled…including that Cynthiana girl."
"Well, here's hoping for a perfect partner," said Liza before giving Hiccup his lunch. She kissed him on the top of his head, "Have a good day and I'll see you later."
Hiccup nodded before heading back outside and mounted onto Toothless.
At school, Hiccup meet Jack who was half asleep and Pandora before the three headed to their classroom. Jack laid his head onto his desk while Pandora and Hiccup took their seats. A few students came in including the teacher who slapped her long ruler onto Jack's desk.
"Now that everyone is awake, I have an announcement. Miss McFarlane has decided to return to school," said Hannah. "Please take a seat Miss McFarlane. I hope there wouldn't be any trouble this time, young lady."
"Of course not, Miss Wilson," replied Cynthiana. That's when she spotted Hiccup and squealed happily. She ran over to Hiccup and hugs him, dearly, "Ciel, my darling!"
"What are you doing here?!" asked Hiccup, pulling her away.
"Well, I did attended lessons here but I stopped coming when my mother died," replied Cynthiana, softly before giving out a grin, "But now I have a reason to come back!"
Hiccup made an annoyed face while Pandora was glaring over at Cynthiana.
"Miss McFarlane if can take your seat, we can begin," said Hannah, pulling Cynthiana in front of the classroom. She had her seat in front of Jack, "Now then, where did we last left off…"
-Berk, afternoon-
Astrid sighed, looking over at the horizon at Raven Point. The tough blond Viking has been thinking about Hiccup's disappearance lately. They just returned from another search for looking the chief's missing son but so far nothing.
The blond Viking slowly got up before glancing back at the forest, "…I shouldn't have ignored him – ah! For Thor's sake! I've been friends with him since we were little! And what did I do when he needed support – nothing!"
Astrid took out her axe and throws it to a nearby tree. She quickly grabs the worn out axe before looking down at the small weapon. She remembers what Gobber told her about this axe. It turns out that Hiccup made it for her sixth birthday after a few months working at the blacksmith.
After killing the Monstrous Nightmare, the village went out to search for Hiccup but if he isn't found within a year, Snotlout will take the title officially. Upon hearing this, Fishlegs and the twins joined Astrid to Raven Point to look for any missed clues about Hiccup's disappearance.
Nothing was found until they took a path that's barely used where they found a few tree branches that were broken. They followed the trail until they stumbled upon a small cove with a pond in the middle.
"Wow, neat place. Never know this was here," said Tuffnut as his sister grinned. Ruffnut elbowed to her brother, "Hey, maybe we can use this place like for training."
Astrid rolled her eyes as the twins hit each other's heads. She thought, 'Even though you were a horrible fighter, at least you were not stupid like those two, Hiccup.'
"Hey guys, come over here!" shouted Fishlegs, standing near the small cave. Astrid and the twins walked over to him and saw black scales on the ground.
"What kind of animal…"
"Or dragon," whispered Fishlegs.
Astrid narrowed her eyes, "Okay, what kind of animal or dragon would have black scales?"
Fishlegs gasped, "I bet it's a Night Fury! It has to be! Remember what Hiccup said during that Dragon Raid about a few months ago!"
Ruffnut and Tuffnut widen their eyes.
"Ah man so that means that Hiccup really did knock down a dragon – and we missed it!" whined Ruffnut. Tuffnut elbowed his sister, "Hey sis, do you think that Gobber still has some of Hiccup's inventions? Maybe we can use some of them."
"Well you two knock it off!" snapped Astrid before picking up the black scales. "We have to show this to the Chief. It's proof that Hiccup was really a Viking! He killed a Night Fury! No Viking has ever done that!"
"And that would give more determination for the villagers to look for Hiccup," said Fishlegs, excitedly. "He will be the greatest Viking known to all the tribes – for killing a dragon that no one has ever seen or live to tell the tale!"
"But we still got to find him," said Ruffnut. "If not, Snotface will take the title."
Tuffnut snorted, "Yea, is it just me or Snotface is getting really annoying? I mean I know annoying as I annoy myself but Snotlout – he's beyond annoying!"
Astrid nodded before making a disgusted face, "I can't believe I'm saying this, but you're right. Ever since that announcement, Snotlout thinks he's Thor. Not only that but he's been after me and saying that we will get married – ah, that disgust me! I rather marry Tuffnut than marry someone like him!"
"Well I didn't know you like me like that Astrid," said Tuffnut, leaning over to Astrid. That's when Ruffnut pulled him away, "Astrid was only joking around Tuff."
"You know, I thought you'll get engaged to Hiccup since your parents and his parents were good friends," stated Fishlegs as they were heading back to the village.
"I…heard something about that when I was younger," murmured Astrid before gritting her teeth, "How in Thor's name are Hiccup and Snotlout related?!"
Ruffnut snorted, "Beats me. I'm still wondering the same thing about Tuffnut."
Astrid turned back to see Tuffnut poking at his nose while Ruffnut was scratching her head as the two had the same expression. She twitched her eye, "Oh yes, completely different."
They reached to the Chief's house when they saw Stoick talking to Snotlout and his father. As they got close, they could hear their conversation.
"Very well, Snotlout will begin training tomorrow," said Stoick.
"Don't give up hope. Your son may…have been small but proven to have a Vikings heart," said Spitelout, place his hand over his heart.
"I'm not giving up on him. He's a smart lad, he'll be fine," said Stoick.
"We're off then, see you later," said Spitelout.
That's when Snotlout spotted Astrid. He formed a smirk and leans over to her, "Why hello there Astrid, how's my betroth-to-be doing?"
Astrid simply ignored him and walked over to Stoick. She took out the black scales, "Chief, the others and I found something interesting at Raven Point."
"Black scales?" said Stoick as Spitelout looked at the scale.
"Fishlegs believes those scales belongs to a Night Fury. Most likely the same Night Fury that Hiccup knocked down during that raid a few months ago," said Astrid.
Spitelout and Snotlout widen their eyes, slightly impressed.
Stoick sighed, sadly, "If only I'd listen to my son that day…Hiccup, the smallest Viking taking down the impossible Night Fury."
That's when Snotlout snatched the black scale from Astrid. He looked closely at it, "How do we know this scale is from a Night Fury? It could be from something else!"
Astrid gritted her teeth before punching Snotlout's stomach, hard. She took back the scale and hands it to Stoick, "We know it's from a Night Fury since it's the only thing with black scales!"
Spitelout nodded, agreeing the explanation before glaring disappointedly at his son.
"Thanks Astrid, hopefully this clue can tell us where Hiccup could be," said Stoick before entering his house. He walked over to the table and stared at the fire before taking out the black scale. He sighed, heavily, "Oh Hiccup, my son…Valka, I promise that I'll find him and this time, this time for sure I'll give him my full support. I'll help him become the greatest Viking of all the Barbaric Archipelago."
