"What happened while I was gone?" Heather asks, looking at Astrid's swollen cheek, and Hiccups cuts and bruises on his. she was only gone a few days, what could have happened in such short time.

"Well let me sum this up" Hiccup starts, "Snotlout comes, looks for you, I interfere, I beat his ass, he leaves. he got a lot of hits on all of it. explain why he is so angry" Hiccup says, and demands. he wasn't too happy when snotlout came and hurt his two great friends, while hitting his wife. there is a line, and he stepped miles too far.

Heather sighs, knowing its explaining time. she feels like she is a child and she has to explain why she did what she did.

"Well, it started when you and her were going to get married" Heather starts, and Astrid can see one of the reasons coming up. Snotlout did always want to marry Astrid. "When you two got engaged, he proposed to me to make Astrid jealous, thus winning her over". Hiccup frowns, he never knew he only wanted Heather to get in Astrids pants. who in the hell would do that?

"And you just got married with him to let him try?" Hiccup asks, and Heather shakes her head. "I didn't know till he started drinking" Heather sheds a tear, and Brenda comes up out of nowhere and sits on her lap, while wiping the tear away.

"All better" Brenda says as she hugs Heather.

"When his plan didn't work, he decided to take a physical approach, or he made me back Astrid into a corner, to beat her and take her to him" he was a monster, but he never showed it, Hiccup always saw the good in everyone. even if you killed 50 Vikings, he would find a reason to defend you.

"When that failed, he planned on killing you Hiccup, and taking Astrid and making her his personal servant" Heather swallows hard, obviously trying not to cry. he knows that snotlout may have wanted Astrid, but killing someone for her wouldn't make a difference.

"I wouldn't let him take her" Hiccup defends. Hiccup may be a peace keeper, but there is no peace to try keeping. but he would sacrifice his own life to save Astrid. there is nothing he wouldn't do for her, and she knew that.

"With his plan, you may be dead before you knew it. that's why I told you, so he wouldn't have the element of surprise" Heather says, looking disappointed. hiccup looks confused. why would he want war just for Astrid. he knows Astrid is the biggest catch you can ever get, but war is a little extreme.

"Thanks for explaining everything Heather, now if you will excuse me I have some stuff to take care of" Hiccup says as he kisses Astrid goodbye and heads to where his lazy dragon lays.

he stares at the dragon, who is sleeping like a luxurious cat. the albino and little one went thor knows where. he kicks the dragon awake, and Toothless jumps like a cat jumping out of the water. he glares at Hiccup before knocking the boy down with his tail. He gets up and hops on the now awake Night Fury.

"we got some stuff to do, but lets take a nice ride" Hiccup says and Toothless jumps in happiness, and starts running to the edge of the cliff. he jumps off the ground and they are up in the air. Hiccup puts his mask that he left on the saddle, as they fly next to a few Timberjacks. they do a few twists and turns before Toothless heads up, looking to do a suicide dive, or something like that. but before toothless heads down Hiccup decides to try something they haven't done in a while.

"Lets try this again bud, but lets not crash this time" Hiccup says as he pulls the lever to keep his tail stationary and ready to solo glide. hiccup detaches his prosthetic from the dragon and falls. they both sore down, both preparing to glide. when they see the ocean they both spread their wings, and they start soaring side by side.

"I forgot how amazing this was" Hiccup says to the dragon. Toothless just stares at him, every once in a while firing a plasma bolt. they see StormFly soar next to them, with Astrid on her.

"So this is your idea on doing business?" Astrid asks, and Hiccup laughs. he wonders how she found him, because they are far enough out to not be seen right away.

"haha your funny. no, I decided to take a flight with big grumpy over there" Hiccup says and Toothless rolls his eyes, but all of them see a cliff, that Hiccup is heading straight into.

"Uh bud. I am of need here" Hiccup says as Toothless tries getting to him. Stormfly catches Hiccup and they fly down to the little island. where a little discussion is about to happen. when they land, toothless and Stormfly do there little thing, playing around. and the couple sit down on the edge of the cliff.

"I honestly don't think I can do this Astrid, you know the whole fighting concept" Hiccup says as he puts his homemade wings on his wing suit away. Astrid stares of into the distance, and sees a dark figure, but ignores it.

"Hiccup, you did fine yesterday. your going to do fine. plus your going to be chief soon, so this can prepare you for what to expect when Stoick retires" Astrid says and Hiccup sighs. he knows hes gonna be chief, but he doesn't want that to be soon. Stoick is a great chief, he still has a lot of years in him. he isn't ready to be chief.

"that's not me, that's his thing. im no warrior, im no chief, i don't know what i am." Hiccup admits, and Astrid Looks at him, and smiles. he may not be a a class warrior, but he is the most charming man she has ever met.

"Hiccup, i believe you will be a great chief, your ready" Astrid says and their moment of smiling at eachother is ruined by a very loud, unknown dragon roar...
