This is were stuff gets real and I'm so excited I have an action packed chapter ahead.

They got their just in time as the other two teams were just warming up. Dagur's team looked smug and relaxed, probably thinking they were easily going to snag first place again.
On the bright side the atmosphere was incredible. A lot more people showed up from different districts to watch and see who would be in the finals, most predicted it will the Riders and the ShatterMasters.
Even though there were plenty of more people it was no were near what it will be for the championship finals race. That's when things start to get real. Teens were hanging off of plateaus and others were easily relaxing in their own foldable camping chairs nursing some type of alcohol.
While several tend to get drunk at these events which is always a fun sight to see.
Once they arrived though the crowd started to cheer as they were still the heavy favorites. It also helped they were in their home track.
Some teens gave them pats on the backs and good luck high fives and hand shakes.
The teams got into their prospective positions. The loud speaker blared to life and started the event.
"...last but certainly not least we have the home town favorites The Riders!" The crowd cheered and applauded.
"At the head is Tobias 'Toothless' Haddock, coming fast and furious Astrid 'Stormfly' Hofferson, the brute Sean 'Snotlout' Jorgensen, the terrible twins Rachel 'Ruffnut' Thorston and Thomas 'Tuffnut' Thorston, coming in as the anchor is Hunter 'Night Fury' Haddock!"
Each member acknowledged their name being called. Hiccup revved his new and improved bike a couple of times enticing more screams from the crowd.
The light up head counted down with Toothless blazing off. The race was off to a good start Toothless was in the lead but barely as Warren was sneaking his way up behind him.
Astrid and Heather traded places back and forth along with Snotlout and Thuggory although it was more physical. Ruffnut and Tuffnut had fun with Savage and Alvin. The twins would make their way to first and then slow their speed dramatically so their back tires would hit Savage and Alvin much to their complete annoyance.
Alvin was going as fast as his motorcycle allowed him too just so he didn't end up being stuck right behind Tuffnut. Dagur started at the way back of the line and started full gear towards Alvin so he could get a blazing head start from Hiccup.
Alvin who was too busy checking behind him to see if Tuff would sneak up behind him failed to notice Dagur coming fast his way. Dagur held his hand out once in range to receive the pipe from Alvin but it never came once he passed him.
Dagur screeched his tires to a stop but by the time he was settled he was already near the first turn.
"Alvin!" "You complete idiot!"
Alvin slowed to a stop to see dagur waving his hands angrily at him. His eyes widened in surprise as he looked down in his hand to see the pipe still in his possession. He gave Dagur a sheepish smile.
"Sorry Dagur!" Alvin then chucked the pipe as hard as he could towards Dagur. The pipe did fall short so Dagur had to circle back around to get it. During all of this happening Tuffnut successfully handed it off to Hiccup who was already on the second stretch of the track.
Dagur gunned it hard trying to catch up but even he knew it was hopeless. He was still able to pass the other guy with ease snagging second place.
Hiccup crossed the finish while Dagur was taking his final turn.
"That's it folks!" "The Riders take first place and the ShatterMasters edge out the Warriors for second." "The Riders and the ShatterMasters go head to head in the championship race for the cup." The announcement speaker explained.
Hiccup was dog piled on after he took off his helmet.
"We're going to the finals, we're going to the finals!" The twins chanted.
Toothless laughed. "Let's go to our spot to celebrate."
Earlier in the day the gang cleaned out the little cave the twins had filled with fireworks and alcohol and replaced it with a little fire pit and chairs to lounge in.
The gang fit comfortably as there were enough chairs for all of them. Brandr told them stories about Colorado and in exchange the rest told him what they been up to here while nursing some drinks.
The heavy foot falls of someone pulling open the tarp curtain startled them.
"Hiccup?"
The thick accent sent all the blood away from Hiccup's face along with the others.
"Hey...Dad..."
Sorry if it's a little short but I really wanted to end it in a cliff hanger. How will Stoick react now?
