"Haddocks are multiplying like rabbits." Older Tuffnut sniggered, as he and Fishlegs put the Chief of Berk on a stool, instead of the floor. "You're his wife, how do you wake him up?" He looked at Astrid, who gave him a look.
"Ooh, let me try, always wanted to do this." Aster said, getting up and rubbing his hands. "BERSERKER ATTACK!" He yelled and his father immediately jolted awake.
"What? Where? When? How?" Hiccup sputtered out of panic, then noticed his oldest son laughing his head off. "Knock it off, it's not funny." He shoved the brown haired teen, who crashed into something somewhere at the side of the room.
A Viking rushed into the room. "Chief, Berserkers are attacking?!" He yelled.
"Is this a joke or is this for real?" He asked, rubbing his eyes.
"Chief?! Dagur the Deranged is attacking, his troops are storming the beeches?!" The Viking yelled frantically.
"Well, what do you know?" Aster said from the pile of pots he had landed in, taking off the pot that was on his head.
"On your dragons now!" Hiccup ordered the original dragon riders. "You lot get out of Berk to Dragon Island until I give the all clear, and take our past selves with you."
"But dad—"Aster protested.
"No buts, find Finn, saddle those dragons and get to Dragon Island. Understood?"
"For once, listen to your father." Astrid gave him a meaningful look. He mumbled in agreement.
"Astrid, you're going with them." Hiccup said, looking at his wife.
"You're going to order me around? 14 years of marriage have taught you nothing." She made her way out of the house and whistled for a blue Nadder.
"Astrid, no, you're pregnant." Hiccup yelled after his wife, jogging after her, but he was too late because she was already in the air. "Argh! Stubborn wives! Dragons everyone." He barked, and everyone obeyed, somehow being hypnotised by good leadership.
"Follow me." Stoic ushered the past versions of his parents and family friends, to the backdoor. "Someone go get Finn, I vote Aster." He smirked at his twin.
"Urgh, fine." Aster said, picking up a stray axe and walking down the hill to find his youngest siblings.
"Ace!" Stoic yelled out to seemingly no one in particular behind the house. There was some ruffling in the grass for a couple of seconds, then, out of nowhere the form of a dragon appeared.
"Is that? A Changewing." Fishlegs said, cowering in fear, at the back of the group.
"When he's not acting like an overgrown puppy, yes." Stoic said, as he rubbed the orange dragon's chin, like it was the most normal thing in the world.
"Blade, don't care where you are, get over here!" Val yelled to the direction of the woods. Moments later a large dragon crawled out of the woods. "Blade, here." She pointed to a spot right in front of her, the toxic green Timberjack dragon obeyed. "Yes, uncle Fishlegs, Timberjack, you have a problem with that."
"I got the brainless wonder." Aster said, jogging up the hill, holding the 7 year old boy by his shirt, panting. His shirt was either burnt or ripped or something, his brown hair was smoking. The two brothers were followed by a red Monstrous Nightmare.
"I'm not a 'brainless wonder'." Fin protested, suspended in the air, crossing his arms and pouting.
"Well who else would try to set fire to Stoic's workshop and melt my axe? My favourite axe! The one mom gave me for my 10th birthday!" Aster glared at his youngest brother.
"Can we please talk about this later? Berserker raid." Val disconnected Aster's hand from Finn's shirt and reminded him about the situation.
"Right. Fin get on Hellfire, and don't ever try to melt my axe again, or I will melt you until you become like molten iron, yourself."
"Aster!" Stoic barked.
"What? Oh, right. Firebite! How am I supposed to humiliate Stoic without you?!" Aster yelled to the sky. As expected a medium sized, majestic, blue Typhoomarang swooped down and landed beside Aster.
"Could you yell any louder?" Stoic asked sarcastically, pulling the final strap to the saddle.
"Alright, Hiccup, man it's weird to say your name, ride with Stoic. Astrid, wow that's even weirder, you ride with Finn. The Twins with Val. Fishlegs and Snotlout with me. Everyone clear?"
"There is no way I'm getting on a dragon." Astrid glared at all the dragons with hatred, and everyone except Hiccup agreed.
"I always wondered what it's like to fly." Hiccup approached the Changewing, cautiously.
"Thank you for being a co-operative father." Stoic swung an arm around his father's past self. "Drop all weapons and just sit on his neck." Obediently, Hiccup took the dagger and gave it to Stoic. Stoic made eye contact with his sister and twin, and the three made a silent conversation, Stoic nodded and threw the dagger into the forest, making it hit square in a tree.
"Wow, mom would be proud of you." Aster sniggered.
"Shut up, Aster, so what if it's not an axe." Stoic slouched a bit, not making eye contact with Astrid. Hiccup was on the dragon and Stoic sat in the saddle. "See ya on Dragon Island, good luck with that lot." He bid his siblings a sneer goodbye, tugged on the antenna things of the Changewing like the reigns to a horse and the Changewing bolted to the skies, with Stoic whooping and Hiccup screaming, holding his son for dear life.

A lot of people have been complaining that the story is getting dull so I spiced it up a bit. What would traveling to Dragon Island with your future children and dragons do to you? What will Hiccup learn about himself and his future? What will the awkward situations be? How's that for dull?
For all those Fishlegs/Ruffnut and Snotlout/Ruffnut fans out there, sorry, but I decided to not give them children at all. Not a lot of people like Snotlout/Ruffnut and I can't get my head around a Fishlegs/Ruffnut pairing.
Please review and comment on what you think of this chapter and remember my no-two-word policy still stands.
