"Mom you'd never even recognize it." Hiccup happily boasted about Berks new ways while Toothless was bring a naughty dragon trying to steal the fish dinner every chance he got.
"Just a bite, nope she sees me..." Toothless backed away from Valka's food prep and followed his distracted chatty rider to a full basket of fish. "Hell yeah in for the jackpot!" Toothless dove his head for the fish only to have the basket lid slammed on his head. "Nope, really I just wanted one!" Toothless whined shaking his head.
"Kid you're not going to get anything acting like that." Cloudjumper watched the naughty Nightfury with great amusment. "You have to act like you don't want it, and an opportunity will present itself."
"That takes to long." the Nightfury sighed.
"You will get nothing then." Cloudjumper scoffed holding his head high and proud.
Toothless narrowed his eyes at the Stormcutter. "We'll see." Toothless watched as Valka visibly jumped to Stoicks touch, dropping the prepped fish.
"Oh yeah hit the floor!" Toothless excitedly went to scoop the fish up with his big tongue but got headbutted out of the way by a pro scrap eater.
Toothless shook his head in surprise quickly glancing at Cloudjumper the thief. "Aw come on, not gonna share even an eyeball?" Toothless sniffed the ground for scraps.
"I said you get nothing." Cloudjumper chewed the yummy fish.
"Please Cloudjumper, I'm hungry..." Toothless whimpered staring up at the Stormcutter licking his lips.
Cloudjumper turned his gaze to the adorable watery green eyes of the hungry youngling and crooned. "Oh ok youngling." Cloudjumper regurgitated the fish to share the the young Nightfury.
Toothless gasped happily slurpping up the shared remains. "Thank you that was yummy!" Toothless gave a cheerful gummy smile.
Cloudjumper chuckled with a grin at the polite young dragon. "Your welcome kid." the Stormcutter could tell the Nightfury clearly had a mother figure in his life considering his manners around him.
Toothless purred warmly pressing his head against Cloudjumper's chest in an embrace manner, before laying down next to Grump and Gobber for a nap by the fire.
Cloudjumper watched the loving youngling and sighed, he knew Toothless's mother was killed by dragon hunters as he arrived at the scene of a dead mother Nightfury with deceased hunters around her. Although he and Valka never found the baby and figured he was killed as well, Cloudjumper recognized Toothless's scent to be familiar as he knew his mother well.
Midnight Sun and him had quite a good almost a mate like relationship, trusting eachother fiercely as Cloudjumper rescued her from the same sort of situation she died from.
Her mate and her were being attacked by hunters and her mate was badly wounded in the fight, Midhnight Sun wasn't doing any better. Her mate bravely decided to make the decision to pull the attention from his egg carrying mate and fly off creating a draw. Cloudjumper and Valka arrived and was told by Midnight's mate to help her and let him pull most of the attention away. Cloudjumper obeyed the noble request and flew in from above with Valka and joined the skirmish. After fighting off the hunters they waited for Midnight's mate to return to no avail, Valka and Cloudjumper relocated the pregnant Nightfury for safety reasons.
Midnight Sun was the last known Nightfury to lay an egg. Cloudjumper and Valka visited every couple days to check on the female and her egg. Knowing Toothless was to young being a hatchling to remember their visits with him. Cloudjumper remembered how courious and playful Toothless was in his first days of life, and noticed much has not changed in the youngling.
Cloudjumper warbled as he also remebered how Toothless's mother said if anyone was a father figure to her son it was him.
Watching the slumbering Nightfury trying to sleep as Stoick began whistling, Cloudjumper exhaled deeply resting himself on the floor, as the rest of the Nightfury's family was was a mystery to him. Cloudjumper shook his head in realization noticing he was begining to create a quickly growing bond with Toothless, the youngling just seemed to continuously steal his heart. Which felt odd to Cloudjumper he usually never tollerated hatchlings or young teen dragons, but to him he has always seen Toothless as young and naive son. Perhaps he had a soft spot for this certain youngling and that is why he was almost fatherly to the Nightfury.
"Will stop me on my joureny!"
"What the hell!" Toothless visibly jumped as Gobber jumped into the song unexpectedly.
Gobber got a glare from from Stoick and quickly crushed his musical spirit. "Sorry... ha ha..." Gobber quickly apologized sitting back down.
Both Hiccup and Toothless were shaking their heads at the one legged and handed viking. "Calm down buddy geez..." Toothless snorted laying his head back down on his paws as Stoick continued to sing to his wife.
Valka than began singing, both her and Stoick broke out into full song and dance infront of everyone.
Toothless lifted his head with his ears perked. "Ok no point in sleeping now. What kind of dance is this?" Toothless watched the humans curiously while across from him Cloudjumper watched happilly enjoying his riders sweet moment with her mate.
"Why are you doing that, what does this mean?" Toothless heard tapping from Gobber's wooden leg sniffing the dancing peg curiously before getting kicked in the nose by it. "Ow!" Toothless quickly backed away from the dancer and Hiccup sneaking behind Grump and over to lay next to Cloudjumper.
"Shouldn't stick your nose in certain places young one." the Stormcutter smirked at the submissive Nightfury.
"Yeah, yeah..." Toothless groaned as the song finished and Gobber continued to hold the last note horribly. "Aaaah, oh Red Death make it stop!" Toothless whined in a howling manner as her attempted to cover his ears.
"I'm done!"
Toothless poked his head up at the words and glared at the viking. "Are you, are you really done. What's all this singing and dancing for anyway?" Toothless growled still confused by love clearly.
"Youngling they are in love, and are just showing their affection for eachother. They have been separated for a long time and need to reconnect." Cloudjumper finally explained to the Nightfury, feeling like that they were reconnecting as well.
"Oooooh I see." Toothless got up and moseyed on over towards the couple.
"Will you come home Val, will you be my wife again?" Stoick asked on one knee.
Toothless walked up from behind Valka and rubbed up against her into her husband. "Yeah will ya come home with us?" Toothless gurgled looking up to her with big adorable eyes.
Stoick stood up as they all chuckled at Toothless, Hiccup caught his eye and brought up another point to his wife. "We could be a family again, what do you say?" Hiccup joined in the group hug and waited for his mothers reply.
Toothless stuck his head in the huddled family and looked up at the smiling wife. "Please!" Toothless crooned also waiting for the reply.
Valka smiled at Toothless with a chuckle giving him a pat she replied. "Yes."
Toothless suddenly caught a scent and began sniffing the air as the humans all chuckled over a joke Gobber said. "What is that?" Toothless turned his attention to the sound of dragons panicking and howling.
Cloudjumper lifted his head to the Nightfury's growling. "What is it youngling?" he asked standing up.
Toothless growled deeper as an unfamiliar evil scent entered his nostrils. "Something is happening, someone is here." hearing a muffled bang he walked towards the flock of dragons zooming by in a panick.
"What's happening?" Hiccup questioned watching the panicked dragons.
Hiccup never got an answer as explosions rocked the cave and Valka ran out to see what was happening with Hiccup, Gobber and Stoick in tow of her.
"Cloudjumper what's going on?" Toothless turned to the growling Stormcutter.
"It's Drago Bloodvist and his army, he has come to recruit and take us!"
"What here!?" Toothless gasped running up to the Stormcutter.
"Prepare for war kid, this is going to be a hell of a battle." Cloudjumper quickly followed Valka to her armour when the humans returned.
"Drago Bloodvist?" Toothless's heart was racing as Hiccup grabbed his mask and climbed aboard. "War... Stoick was right..." Toothless didn't show fear easily to anything he hid it well, but deep down he feared whoever this Drago Bloodvist was. Clearly the mad man had some sort of power to have control over an entire army of dragons.
In the traps
"Alright that's Barf and Belch's signal, go!" Stormfly burst out of her trap with the rest of the gang all in sync. Stormfly flew as Eret attempted to hang onto the saddle. "Oh hang on tight, I need to find my girl." Stormfly groaned at the struggling trapper on her back.
"Stormfly over here!" Meatlug called gestruing to the riders on her back.
"There!" Stormfly quickly flew up beside the Gronckle. "Glad you escaped unharmed." Stormfly greeted the Gronckle.
"You as well." Meatlug gurgled as Astrid jumped off and back onto the Nadder.
Hookfang and Barf and Belch closely flew up behind the two females. "Time to kick some Dragging ass!" Hookfang roared flying up to Stormfly.
"Dragging ass?" Stormfly shook her head. "You mean Drago's ass... Oh never mind just stick to the attack plans." Stormfly veered off with Barf and Belch.
Hookfang growled rolling his eyes. "Whatever same damn thing!" he hissed lighting up a catapult.
The Zippleback twins quickly made a cloud of gas that Stormfly lit seconds later causing a large explosion allowing trapped dragons to escape.
Clearly their attacks were trying Drago's patience as he screamed for them to be taken down.
"Alright you heard the mad man, stay on high alert!" Stormfly roared to the others who were slow to listen as Ruffnut fell off Barf. "Dammit kids!" Stormfly hissed as she dodged shots being fired at her. Flying up to the ice was a mistake as a large portion broke off and was about to colide with her. "No!" Stormfly attempted to dodge it.
Suddenly the large piece of ice burst as it was hit by a plasma blast just in time before it colide.
"Bastards!" Toothless growled diving down and firing on one of the catapults, blowing it up to nothing but splinters.
"Mum!" Toothless roared happily flying up to Stormfly with Skullcrusher and Grump not far behind.
"Toothless!" Stormfly gurgled overjoyed to see her adopted son was unharmed. "Where have you been, you had me worried sick!?" Stormfly hissed at the her Nightfury son quickly changing her attitude.
"Oh not much just hanging out with Cloudjumper, and Hiccup's mum." Toothless grinned gesturing to the huge Stormcutter in the air with the emerging Alpha.
"A Stormcutter with an Alpha!?" Stormfly gasped almost speechless.
"That's right, now let's show Cloudjumper what we can do!" Toothless crooned veering off with Cloudjumper following behind him.
Cloudjumper soared towards the battlefield leading the attack with the dragons from the sanctuary. "Attack!" he roared his commands.
"Oh no, I don't think so!" Toothless hissed as a trap caught one of the fighting Zipplebacks.
"Come on Toothless lets show them what you got!" Hiccup steered Toothless towards the trap.
"You got it!" Toothless prepared a plasma blast. "Be free!" Toothless shattered the trap setting the dragons free earning praise frim his rider.
Cloudjumper and Valka quickly flew over to break up a fight between Drago's mindless armoured dragon and one of theirs. "Beat it and grow a conscious!" Cloudjumper grabbed the attacking dragon and tossed him with his tallons. Only to be caught by netting a second later. "No dammit!" he hissed hitting the ground as Valka fell off into the snow.
Valka didn't have time to help Cloudjumper as they were approached by Drago himself. "You cannot take our dragons they are controlled by the alpha!" Valka began fighting the mad man.
While circling the battlefield with the others searching for a target, Toothless perked up hearing some sort of strange screaming. "What the hell is that?!" he looked around for the source of the odd screaming.
"Oh no!" Hookfang whimpered cowering in the air looking fearful of something.
Toothless gurgled in confusion as his big brother was anything but fearful. "What is it?"
"It's that mad man again!" Meatlug gasped flying faster and more panicked.
Toothless noticed something in the water began to move the ships and cause gigantic waves. "Something is coming!" he warned the others as suddenly another rougher evil looking Bewilderbeast emerged from the ocean.
"Another one!?" both Hiccup and Toothless gasped in disbelief.
"No not another..." Cloudjumper knew two Bewilderbeasts would result in a fight to the death only one coming out on top. "Finally!" Cloudjumper roared as Valka cut the netting and they took off after the two battling Bewilderbeasts. "Oh this is bad, very bad!" Cloudjumper dodged a tail before flying right in between the two beasts. Valka attempted to stop them but to no avail. "It's not going to work Valka, we need to find Toothless and your boy, they aren't prepared for this kind of war, and will get killed!" Cloudjumper dove out of the way of the attacking Alphas just in time.
Toothless was busy taking out more traps and catapults, while watching the Alphas out of the corner of his eyes. "They are going to kill eachother." Toothless watched scared for the good Bewilderbeasts life.
The evil Bewilderbeast quickly flipped the Alpha onto his side and speared his tusks directly into the heart of the Alpha, killing it instantly and taking the position as the new Alpha.
"No!" Cloudjumper skipped a heart beat as the new Alpha roared triumphantly, gaining control of all the weak minded dragons.
"The Alpha!" Toothless cried his jaw dropped and his eyes went wide as the monstrous titan bellowed.
"Finish her!" the mad man screamed at his Alpha to kill Valka and Cloudjumper.
"Not good." Cloudjumper attempted to evade the icey breath of the beast but got his tail froze disabling him of a stable flight.
"No, we have to stop this bud." Hiccup steered Toothless to dive towards the crazed man.
Toothless hissed ready for a good fight. "I am ready Hiccup." Toothless confidently landed as Hiccup screamed at the man to stop.
"Hang on Valka!" Cloudjumper cried as Valka slipped as they flew through dragons that hit her off, falling off Cloudjumper Stoick caught her and hide in the mountain. While Cloudjumper crashed landed not far from them.
Drago Bloodvist Laughed at Hiccup as soon as dismounted and took off his helmet. "This is the great dragon master, son Stoick The Vast!?"
Toothless growled with his fangs beared. "Don't you laugh at my best friend!" Hiccup held up a hand to keep him back from attacking Drago.
"What shame he must feel." the man ignored Toothless's growls and continued to insult his rider.
Hiccup ignored the insults and stayed on topic. "All this loss and to do what, be unstoppable, to rule the world?" the mad man smirked and nodded his head at the destruction around them. "Dragons are amazing wonderful creatures that can bring people together." Hiccup continued only to recieve an evil chuckle as the man stapped his spear into the ice.
Drago took off armour to their surprise was revealed to be a fake arm. "Or tear them apart." he began to circle Hiccup. You see I know what it is to live in fear, and watch my village burned, my family taken. But even as a boy left with nothing, I vowed to rise above the fear of dragons and liberate the people of this world." Drago returned to his staff and stared at his beast tearing apart the mountain for Hiccups mother.
"Then why a dragon army?" Hiccup exhaled almost annoyed.
"Yeah!" Toothless gurgled narrowing his eyes.
Drago simply turned and scoffed. "Well you need dragons to conquer other dragons."
"Or maybe you need dragons to conquer people, to control those who follow you, and to get rid of those who wont." Hiccup growled knowing the mad mans game.
"Cleaver boy." Drago snorted with a smirk turning fully towards the young man.
"The world wants peace." Hiccup began as Drago took a step.
Toothless growled deeply stepping closer towards the tyrant. "Hey Crazo I got a sad story to tell you." Hiccup stopped Toothless from going past him.
"Just let me show you..."
"No let me show you!" Drago snapped having enough small talk, he began waving his staff around roaring calling his Alpha to him.
"Ok he's doing the crazy thing again, can I take him out now, he needs to be put out of his misery." Toothless backed away for a second before taking another step forward, waiting for Hiccup to give him a signal, but his rider was to flabergasted to do anything.
Cloudjumper breathed fire on his tail melting the ice block after coming to from blacking out on impact into the mountain. "What the hell?" he lifted his head to the sound of Drago's screams. Hearing the Alpha's footsteps lead towards the screams Cloudjumper looked over the icey edge and saw Toothless and his human with Drago. "No Toothless!" He roared taking off.
"Uh Hiccup..." Toothless's heart began to pound as the Alpha's terrifying presence waited for a command.
Drago turned back to both him and Hiccup, this time focused on Toothless. "No dragon can resist the Alpha's command." He pointed his staff up to his Bewilderbeast. "So he who controls the alpha, controls them all." Drago pointed his spear directly at Toothless who cowered at him then stared at the Alpha.
The Alpha focused his controlling stare on the Nightfury emitting the haunting possession song to control others.
"Don't... Stop!" Toothless cried out shaking his head. "You can't control me!" he rubbed his head on the snow and ice as an attempted distraction.
"Witness true strength." Drago regained Hiccup's attention.
"You can't!" Toothless screwed his eyes tightly to no avail, the song soon possessed the poor youngling.
"Strength of will over others, in the face of it, you are nothing!" Drago pointed his spear from Toothless to Hiccup giving the deadly order.
Toothless turned to face his rider without question, he began approaching menacingly. "run...Hiccup... run..." Toothless's conscious flared in and out.
"Toothless come on...what's the matter with you?" Hiccup began to back away from his possessed dragon. Looking up to realize the Alpha's control over his Nightfury. "Oh no no no no, come on, what are you doing knock it off!" Hiccup backed up into a corner. "Stop, snap out of it!"
Toothless growled his killer hiss, fangs bared ready to kill as he continued to back his rider into a corner.
"Toothless no!" Cloudjumper soared by Stormfly and the others.
"Toothless!" Stormfly cried following the Stormcutter closely in tow.
"Stop!" Hiccup cried falling on the ground.
Toothless was completely lost as he began to create a plasma blast ready for the kill.
"Hiccup!" Stoick screamed running to his sons aid.
"Dad, no!"
BANG
Cloudjumper and Stormfly both stopped above the scene, their jaws dropped from what they had just witnessed.
Toothless's mouth was smoking, cooling from the deadly blast he just delivered directly into his riders fathers heart.
The haunting torturous voice of the Alpha rang through his head as he stood there mindless with smoke pouring from his lethal mouth.
*You're worthless.*
Toothless tried his best to fight the Alpha's control. "What do you want!?"
*A killer.* the image of Stoick's last heart beat flashed.
"No!"
*Unholy offspring.* the scene of Toothless with lightening flashing with blue lining along his back and head.
"Stop!" Toothless cried in his head.
*YOU BELONG TO ME NOW!* Toothless suddenly shook out of his trance hyperventilating finally regaining control over himself as the Alpha walked away proudly.
Toothless took a moment to calm his heart and catch a couple breaths, the sound of his rider and his mother crying caught his attention seeing Stoick laying motionless on the ice.
"Toothless!" Stormfly and Cloudjumper cried out landing behind the Nightfury with the rest of the gang seconds behind.
"Mum?" Toothless turned to see Cloudjumper and the gang with Stormfly.
"Toothless what did you do?" Cloudjumper gasped as Astrid dismounted Stormfly.
"I don't... I..." Toothless was confused his mind was still fuzzy from the Alpha's mind control. Astrid ran past Toothless his gaze followed her as she tried to comfort her boyfriend. "What did I do..." Gobber running up showing sorrow towards the crying family, finally made Toothless realize Stoick was laying lifeless on the ice. "No...Stoick..." Toothless heart filled with sorrow, crooned as he carefully walked up to the sobbing vikings. "I did this..." Walking right up to Stoick making sure it was alright as Valka and Gobber both gave him a look before looking back to the lifeless chief.
"Stoick...I'm sorry" Toothless sniffed the lifeless chiefs hand. "Please... wake up..." he cried moving to nudge his head on the Chiefs hand.
Hiccup finally noticed his unholy death dragon trying to show sorrow to his now deceased father. "No, get away from him!" Hiccup shoved the youngling away.
Toothless backed away in confusion. "Hiccup I'm sorry." Toothless wimpered with tear filled eyes attempting to come back.
"Go on get out of here!" Hiccup was flustered, angry, and devastated.
Toothless coward close to the ground still staring into the angry tear filled eyes of his rider. "Please Hiccup..." trying to take another step.
"Get away!"
Hookfang was filled with sorrow for the humans, but mostly for his little brother who must have felt like a monster, Hookfang knew his brother was mostly devastated though. "Toothless." Hookfang called after Hiccup yelled one last time, he knew too well that Toothless was easily heartbroken and would run away.
Toothless jumped back his giant eyes filling with tears. "I'm so sorry..." Toothless looked at Stoick one last time before running off and ignoring his adopted mother and brothers calls.
"Toothless co..." Cloudjumper, Stormfly, and Hookfang all lost their mind as they were possessed by the Alpha.
*MOVE OUT!* the Alpha roared sending his mind control signals out to all dragons once more. Cloudjumper and the dragon gang had no control over themselves blindly following the Alpha's command.
"NO!" Toothless hissed trying to fight the mind control as all the other dragons flew off swarming the Alpha. Roaring and growling Toothless slowly lost his control over his conscious unfortunately trying to fly towards the Alpha with his tail locked. Toothless mindlessly continued flying constantly crashing into the ground catching Drago's attention. Toothless suddenly got ripped down and pinned by the mad man, who walked across his back and mounted him forcefully. "Get... off..." Toothless cried out as he had no control over what he was doing, allowing Drago to take full control of his flight.
