Toothless looked up at Hiccup as she sat at her desk, reading more of the Night Fury notes. The black dragon sighed, "Can't that wait until tomorrow, Hiccup? It's late. I need to get some sleep."

"I don't want to make a bad impression when we meet our kind."

"I still don't see why you can't just either go to sleep and read more tomorrow, or just do that outside."

"Because I don't want to disturb anyone out there... Wait a minute. There's a reason to why we're the only one's on the island."

"What?" Toothless stood up and walked over to the desk.

Hiccup continued, "It turns out, we're extremely hostile towards other species. If the others arrive there with their dragons..."

"They'll be killed."

"Well then, that settles it. We're going there without them." Hiccup packed some food and walked outside with Toothless.

She mounted onto her dragon and turned to where the map located the Isle of Night, "By this time, tomorrow, We are gonna be knee deep in Night Furies and Reptians."

Both flew off into the night.

The next morning, the rest of the Dragon Riders met at the arena. They quickly noticed Hiccup's absence.

Fishlegs kept glancing to the entrance, "Where is she? Hiccup's normally the first one here. I know she'd be the first one today. After all, this is her own kind we're about to meet."

"She would never..." said Astro, "Or... would she? You guys stay here. I'm gonna check her hut. Maybe she overslept or something."

Astro walked through the front door of the Haddock's house. He was greeted by Stoick, who was carving a bird out of wood.

"Morning, Astro."

"Good morning, Sir. Uh... is Hiccup here? We've been waiting for her at the arena all morning."

"I haven't seen her since she went to bed last night. Would you like me to tell her you were looking for her when she returns?"

"Uh... if it's alright.. I'll just leave her a note."

"Sure. She has extra paper and pencils on her desk. They shouldn't be hard to find."

"Thanks, Chief." Astro ran up the stairs and looked around the bedroom.

When he walked out of the house, the rest of the group was outside, waiting for him.

Astro shook his head before anyone could ask. "Hiccup isn't here. She must have flown off with Toothless last night. Fortunately, she must have drawn a copy of the map on a bigger piece of paper. She left her sketchbook here."

"Yes!" exclaimed Fishlegs.

"Alright guys," said Astro, "let's go to the arena and gather some supplies. If we hurry, we'll make it to the Isle of Night before sundown."
