Three days have passed since the meeting with Dagur and the Berserkers, all of Berk seemed to move on except the house of Haddock. Knife had been unconscious for a few days now. Her parents weren't sure when she would wake up again, in Knife's arm was a puncture wound in her neck where a drug dart left the puncture. The village medic had deemed the drug not deadly but it will be awhile before Knife woke up again. During the three days that passed Scar and Midnight had taken turns watching over Knife. Until one night Knife had begun to stir, it was midnight's turn to watch over Knife. Her ears wiggled at the sound of movement in Knife's bed, she raised her head to see Knife staring at her. Knife sat up in her bed her head still spinning a little. She tried to climb out of bed but when she did she collapsed Midnight caught her.
"Hey girl. It seems I'm still a little tired," she told the dragon her stomach growled,"I'm also really hungry...Do you think you could help me down stairs?" The dragon nodded and they walked downstairs to the kitchen. Knife reaches into their pantry and tries to grab something but accidentally knocks a jar off the shelf. The jar shatters and the noise is heard throughout the house."Oops...my bad." Knife uttered under her breath her sister burst from her bedroom door which is across from the dining room.
"Knife? Your awake?"Brenda asked.
"Yea and can I ask you to put down the sword," Knife asked, Brenda looked at the sword and sheathed it and ran to hug her sister."Well I love you too but you act like I haven't been here for a week."
"That's because...Mom! Dad! Knife is awake!" Brenda exclaimed, Knife raised and eyebrow. Immediately there was a sound of footsteps running down the stairs, Astrid was first followed by Hiccup.
"Knife!" Astrid cried as she squeezed her daughter,"Thank gods your awake again." They all hugged her Arve sleepily climbed down the stairs.
"What's going on?.."Arve yawned.
"Your sister is awake," Astrid explained Arve immediately woke up and ran to his sister and hugged her crying.
"Ok what is going on you guys? What happened?... Wait where's Gunner?" Knife questioned all of them.
The family stared at each other but Hiccup was first to speak he asked,"What do you remember?"
Knife thought for a moment,"I remember searching for Gunner at the West beach when I walked into the woods and came across a large hole. The moment I looked in I felt a pinch at my neck, everything started to go blurry and I heard a whirring noise in the hole. A pair of yellow eyes glowed and I fell into the hole."
"I see... well the Berserkers came, they were looking for Gunner. When we tried to argue that he wasn't here Dagur threatened us saying they wouldn't hand you over. When me and your mother tried to save you they attacked with dragons of their own..." Hiccup explained.
"Than I came back with the horde of dragons threatening Dagur to leave...That's when Gunner appeared, he was with me and the trainees rounding-up dragons. He struck a deal with Dagur and then left West, Dagur left the island and that was it. Though now it's safe to say that Berk and the Berserkers are enemies." Brenda said continuing of Hiccup's explanation.
"So I was kidnapped,taken hostage, unconscious this whole time, Gunner left back to Night Island, and we are possibly at war with the Berserkers? Does that sum it up?"Knife asked.
"Basically, you've been out for three days already."Arve replied.
"Oh great well that explains why I'm so hungry..."Knife confessed.
"I will make you some stew," Astrid said preparing food for Knife.
"I guess I will clean my mess..."Knife said looking at the jar shards.
"I will do it, don't worry."Brenda urged.
"Thanks Bree. Dad I want to go see Gunner." Knife confessed. Hiccup sighed and scratched his head.
"I figured as much. We can go as soon as your able to make the trip, ok?" Hiccup asked Knife she shook her head in agreement.
The next afternoon they prepared their dragons for the trip back to Night Island.
"You ready to go than?" Hiccup asked Knife.
"Yea I am,"She climbed Scar but she looked back at Midnight who was staying for some reason,"See you later Midnight!" The Dragoness roared back and Knife and Hiccup were airborne. They continued on stopping for one break at the rock where Tornado was found. When they got back on their dragons it was already sunset.
"Dad why did you agree to let me come back to Night Island?"Knife queried flying next to him.
Hiccup answered,"There wasn't anything I wouldn't have done for my best friend,also because whether he believes it or not he's one of us. He's no longer a Berserk. If we have to fight the Berserkers than so be it but we do it together as a family." Knife smiled her eyes tearing up a little she quickly wiped them away.
"Thanks dad," Knife said as they flew faster to the island. The sun fell and in the distance there was a glow."The sun is rising?" She looked up and saw stars.
"No that's not the sun Knife," Hiccup uttered, Knife looked at her father than squinted. Night Island was on fire, Scar let out a sharp shriek of pain, as his home is reduced to ashes.
