When Hiccup sat down Astrid looked him and she knew that he trained the Night Fury, so she smiled in her head
"(He trained the Night Fury does that mean he's going to cheat his way through dragon training.)" Astrid thought then he heard Gobber telling a story
"Before you guys were born, I still had my limbs until that fateful day when a dragon bite my hand clean off then couple of weeks later the same dragon thought I was tasty that he bite my foot off and I thought he was going to eat the rest of me but Stoick came and killed the dragon before it could finish me off then Stoick carried me to Gothi's where I passed out half way to her hut because when I woke up I saw that I had a peg leg as my leg from now on." Gobber said
"Would it be strange that you hand would be still alive inside the dragon's stomach that you can still control that you crush the dragon's heart from the inside killing it instantly." Fishlegs said as Snotlout looked at him weirdly
"I swear I'm so fucking angry that I'll avenge your beautiful foot and hand by cutting off every dragon's legs off and see how they like it with my face because I am beautiful aren't that right babe." Snotlout flirted with Astrid who just rolled her eyes
"(He's just like Adrien when he flirted with me as Chat Noir.)" Astrid thought
"You are an idiot how will you get through their tough scales." Astrid said as she smiled seeing Snotlout come up with an excuse
"Shut up Astrid." Snotlout said
"It's the wings and the tail fins you need to cut off, if any of those are gone a dragon is grounded making it a dead dragon to anything that all kill it." Gobber said as everyone nodded except for Hiccup who looks down in wonder
"Alright everyone in 3 days we'll be training against the Zippleback so get ready to train because the best recruit will have the chance to kill the Monstrous Nightmare." Gobber said then he stood up and started to head home
"It's gonna be me who will kill the Monstrous Nightmare see it's my destiny." Tuffnut said as he showed them something on his arse
"How did mom let you have a tattoo?" Ruffnut asked after she gasped
"It's not a tattoo it's a birth mark." Tuffnut said
"How I have been with you since birth, and I haven't seen that on you?" Ruffnut asked
"It's because you haven't seen me on the left side before." Tuffnut said then the Twins started to fight each other while Hiccup used the distraction and he left to go to the forge to craft a tail fin for Toothless after what Gobber said then Astrid saw Hiccup leave and she knew what he was going to do
When Hiccup made it to forge, he went into his office where he took out his notebook and he started to draw a new tail fin and after he was done, he went to work on it
Hiccup started to heat up the forge where he started to work on the tail fin by melting down the metal to turn them into marbles then he created couple of rods, then he used the leather to create the tail then he connected everything together creating the tail fin so when he was done, he opened the tail fin multiple times after he did that he smiled and gave a nod at his creation so he walked to his house where he put the tail fin inside then he ran to the storage shed where he collected every kind of fish even an eel and after he was done he put it in a container where he carried to his home where he put it in the same place as the tail fin then he went to bed and sleep
When the morning rolled around Hiccup woke up and he picked up the tail fin and the basket of fish then he exited out the back door where he looks into the village to see if anyone was and when he saw no one was watching he quickly ran into the forest where he went to the cove and entered
"Toothless I brought you food! Hiccup grunted as he dropped the basket of fish then he spilled it as the fish fell out
"Look at all of these tasty fish, hang on, is that an eel, yes that is an eel, get that eel from me." Toothless roared
"So, dragons don't like eel, I can use this when we face the Zippleback." Hiccup said as he removed the offending fish out of the pile then he speaks to the back of Toothless to put on the new tail fin
"Just keep eating, don't mind me back here, I'm not doing anything wrong, that's right keep eating." Hiccup said as he put the tail fin down and he tried to put the tail fin back on but Toothless keep moving it, so Hiccup tried a different approach, and he sat on the tail as he put the tail fin on
"Look at all of this fish, I'm like in fish heaven." Toothless said then he felt something on his tail as he put his wings down on the ground as he had shock expression on his face then he lifted off from the ground into the air
"I can fly again." Toothless said excitedly then he dropped from the sky as he was about to crash into the rock wall then he got lifted up in the air as he flew around the cove then he heard something and saw Hiccup was still on his tail so he flicked him off as Hiccup bounced on the water surface then he went below the water then he sprung up and cheered at his creation that finally worked
"It works but it would need modification so I would get around to it during those 2 days." Hiccup said as he swam to the shore where he got out then he went over to Toothless where he took off the tail fin and he took the eel then he said goodbye to Toothless as he left the cove then he walked home so no one sees him soaking wet and when he got home he took off his wet clothes and he dried himself off then he put on fresh clean clothes then he looked outside to see if he could sneak his tail fin to the forge but he couldn't do it at the moment since there were a lot of people walking around so he waited until it was lunch time then he would go to the forge to fix up the tail fin
1 hour later Hiccup looked outside again and saw they were heading to the Great Hall, so he picked up the tail fin then he quickly went to the forge where he went to the back room and started to draw up plans on how to control the tail fin so for the next two days Hiccup went to work creating a saddle so he can sit while he controlled the tail fin but he would do that after Dragon Training with the Zippleback
In the Arena
"For this dragon training you are carrying buckets to wet the dragons head since they can't light their fires but the Zippleback has two heads so you need to know which head breaths out gas while the other sparks it so you will be in a team of two." Gobber said
"Tuffnut and Snotlout you are in a team, Astrid and Ruffnut you are the other team while Fishlegs and Hiccup will be the other team." Gobber said so the teens went to their partners as Gobber signaled for the gate to be opened and when it did green gas came out concealing the dragon while blocking the teens sight
"Where is the hatchling that had the Night Hunter scent?" Barf asked
"How should I know, when you the one who covered the area with your gas." Belch said
"If that dragon shows any of their houses, then it's gonna get... there." Snotlout said after seeing two figures in the smoke, so Snotlout and Tuffnut threw water at the figures but all they got were Astrid and Ruffnut
"How idiots, you got the wrong thing! Ruffnut shout
"We thought you two were dragons since your buts are like dragons." Tuffnut said as the two girls were offended by the comment
"There's nothing wrong having a dragon-esque figure you two have." Snotlout said then Astrid punched Snotlout in face as Ruffnut threw a bucket at Tuffnut then he got grabbed and he was pulled into the smoke
"Wait!" Astrid shouted as she stopped Ruffnut from running in then a tail swung around tripping up Astrid and Ruffnut onto the ground as Tuffnut came running out holding his nose screaming
"Oh, I'm hurt! I am very much hurt! Tuffnut shouted as he ran
"This is very troubling; our numbers have dwindled so much." Fishlegs said then a head pops out of the smoke so Fishlegs threw water at its head thinking it was the right one that can spark but it was the wrong head because it released out the gas, so Fishlegs ran out of there
"So, you're the hatchling with the Night Hunter scent." Barf said then another head popped out and Hiccup thew the water well he tried as the water fell short
"Your right he's still got the Night Hunter scent could it be possible that he trained the dragon." Belch said as he released some sparks, but Hiccup opened up his vest showing the eel he was hiding
"Is that an eel, get it away from us!" Barf and Belch squealed as they were backed to their cage then Hiccup closed the door when they were safely inside
"We're glad he didn't throw it inside that would have been terrible." Barf said as Belch nodded his head
"Yeah, but how did he know we hate eels?" Belch asked
"Could it be that he's been training with the Night Hunter to learn new information about us on how to defeat us by not hurting us." Stormfly said
"Could be possible but we don't know so we need more information." Meatlug said
After closing the door Hiccup looked at the crowd and saw them in shock as Fishlegs dropped his bucket so Hiccup wanted to get out of there
"Are we done here I got things to do." Hiccup said as he was getting weirded out by the stares, he ran out of the arena.
Hiccup went to the forge where he started to make his saddle for Toothless then Gobber came in the forge after he returned from the arena then he saw Hiccup creating something, but he didn't care what Hiccup was creating
"Hiccup in 4 days we'll be facing against the gronkle again so train for 3 days." Gobber said as he left the forge and entered the Great Hall where he sat with a group of Vikings as they drank mead
After Hiccup was done creating the saddle, he started to work on the backlog of broken weapons that were piling so Hiccup went to work
3 days later Hiccup finished ever weapon that was in the forge and when he looked outside and saw there was no one around he picked up the saddle then he ran to the cove where he saw Toothless sleeping
"Toothless let's test out this saddle I crafted for you." Hiccup said as Toothless stood up then he ran as Hiccup ran after him
"Hey! Hiccup shouted as he ran after Toothless and when he caught up, he put the saddle and the tail fin on then he got on to the Toothless while holding the rope then Toothless took off in the air has Hiccup tried to tug on the tail fin, but he turned wrong and crashed into a felid of Dragon Nip.
"Strange grass useful to dragons that I'll use tomorrow and it seems like it's back to the drawing board with the saddle and tail fin." Hiccup said as he took Toothless back to the cove where he took off the saddle and the tail fin then he saw it was getting dark which was perfect chance to get them back into the cove so that's what Hiccup did he exited the cove and travelled through the forest and entered the forge where he put the saddle and tail fin even the grass then Hiccup left the forge and he headed home to sleep for tomorrow.
