Astrid's POV
It was nearly four in the afternoon the following day, and we were still busy trying to explain the situation to the former Mayor who had his arm in a sling, and was currently tied to a chair, because he was being as stubborn as a yak. His Rumblehorn, Skullcrusher, was lazing with our dragons in the corner while watching our discussion with exasperation.
"Will you lot untie me?" He said impatiently.
"Will you listen to us or will you run to your officials who want you dead?" I asked him in a serious tone.
"You don't know that." He tells us, and I let out a groan of frustration.
"Your son just foiled an attempt on your life. I think it's clear enough." I ground out.
Just then the doors to the lair opened an I see Hiccup entering with the allies he gathered. Hiccup, and a woman with flowing black hair enter, while dragging an unconscious man between them. Behind them Gobber, and Alvin enter the lair.
Upon seeing Stoick tied up Alvin began to laugh hysterically. Gobber simply asked if Stoick was being a stubborn mule again. Their dragons came in behind them. Toothless, and Sharpshot bounded over to stand beside Hiccup, while I saw a Hotburple, a Whispering death, a Skrill, and a Razorwhip find a spot to settle down.
My teammates upon seeing the woman greeted her with warmly.
"Oh yes, Astrid you never met Heather did you." Fishlegs asks, and I nod affirmative.
The woman named Heather shakes my hand while introducing herself. "Heather de la Ranged, also known as Razor, former leader of these guys."
"That unconscious lump over there is my brother Dagur. You probably know him as Sparky." She tells us, and even the others turn silent to stare between Heather, and her brother.
"I don't see the resemblance." Tuffnut muttered.
"Wait, you're related to a villain Heather?" Stoick yelled from his chair.
"Oh hush you." Ruffnut tells him with a dismissive wave.
"I haven't seen Stoick this flustered since I got him stuck in an oil barrel 10 years ago." Alvin laughed as he took in the former Mayor's scrunched up face.
"Hiccup, will you tell us now how you got him out of the hospital? I ask curiously. All of us had been wanting to know what happened. "Fishleg would only tell us that you stopped an attempt on his life."
"Yeah dude, that place was crawling with security. How did you get him out?" Tuffnut asked. A grumble was heard from the Mayor who obviously wasn't happy about how he got out.
"Well it may have been crawling with security, but immediate family still had rights to visit." Hiccup tells us. "And I had Fishlegs on standby on the hospital grounds since he wasn't suspected of attempted murder."

Hiccup's POV
I had entered the hospital, and went straight to the receptionist. She was kind enough after verifying my ID to lead me towards Stoick's room. The hospital was full of security personal, both in uniform, and civilian clothing.
'I could definitely not leave with my father the way I came in.' I thought to myself. Even the elevator had a guard.
"Security's a bit excessive isn't it." I asked the guard who rode with us on the elevator up to the 5th floor. He gave me a critical look, but relaxed when the nurse told him who I was.
"Your father's would be assassins are still at large. They may try to finish the job so the Deputy Mayor has heightened security here." The guard explains, and I nod in understanding.
Soon we reach the private hospital room where two guards stand at attention. I'm let through with no fuzz.
"Well hello dad." I great, and watch as Stoick sits up in astonishment.
"Hiccup? What are you doing here?" He asks me.
"I've come to save your live." I simply state, while checking out the room.
"You? And what the devil are you talking about." Stoick asked.
"Do you know someone named Drago Bludfist?" I ask him, and I watch as his eyebrows shoot up. "I'll take that as a yes."
"How do you even know that name?" Stoick asked shocked. "That man is a sadistic madman."
"Because he's the reason you're in this bed. The Riders were framed, your Deputy Mayor, aides, some of the judges, and police officers are all in his pocket." I tell him as I watch shock overtake him, and then came the denial.
"How would you know that?" Stoick asked angrily. "I've worked with these people for years."
"And you were played like a fiddle for years." I grounded out. "Why else would you be in a room where any of Drago's men could get to you?"
Stoick wanted to continue arguing but an orderly came in carrying a tray. "Good morning Mr. Haddock." The orderly said. "I just need to give you your medication."
"What exactly is that medication?" I ask as I watch the orderly fill the syringe.
"Just some Lorazepam, sir." The orderly said calmly, but before he could inject Stoick with the drug I stopped him.
"Do you take me for an idiot? Lorazepam is used to treat depression. I admit he's an ass, but he's certainly not depressed." I stated. The orderly who was now staring at me wide-eyed. "The nurse told me he was on Oxycotin. Adding Lorazepam to the mix would be fatal."
I twist the orderly's hand making him drop the syringe, and clamp my other one over his mouth so that he couldn't call the guards. I soon had him knocked out as I turned back to my father who was staring in complete shock.
"I told you didn't I." I stated, while opening the glass door to the balcony, and letting out a whistle. "Making it look like an accidental death, or they would cover it up, and blame the Riders for murder." I muttered as I tied the orderly up with the curtains.
"It's time to get you out of here." I state.
"And how exactly are you going to do that." Stoick grumbled out. "You'll never make it passed the guards."
"We're not going past the guards." I say, and watch Toothless, who was circling the hospital above the clouds, quickly land on the balcony. Toothless, and I quickly merge, and I see that dad was once again shell-shocked. I quickly radio Fishlegs to standby.
"You're….but…..what….Thor…HOW!" Stoick sputtered, as I easily lifted him out of the bed with my enhanced strength.
"As I was saying. We're taking the scenic route." I said, and threw Stoick over the balcony railing, with me jumping after him.
"AAAAHHHHHH! DEAR SWEET ODIN'S BEARD!" Stoick yelled as he plummeted to the ground.
I catch him mid air, and we fly up quickly into the clouds where we are soon joined by Fishlegs.
"Hiccup, are you crazy!" Fishlegs asked as I hand Stoick over to him. More like had to pry his death grip off of me, and toss him to Fishegs.
"Possibly." I mutter. "Take him to the lair. I'm going to gather some allies."

Astrid's POV
"Dude, that was wicked!" Tuffnut says, and hi-fives Hiccup.
"You just saved your father's life, only to throw him from a 5 storey balcony?" I asked for confirmation.
"Why yes Milady." Hiccup tells me. "Was the highlight of my day."
"Astrid your boyfriend is absolutely villainous." Ruffnut tells me with a grin.
"Why thank you Ruff." Hiccup says smirking.
