Almost a day had gone by since Hiccup had left Knife on the island. Knife had found some clues about what took place on the island. It seems that the Berserkers came on boats to the island maybe about a two days before Hiccup and Knife had gotten there. Knife figured this because on some parts of the island where marks from ships and footsteps lots of them. Though it was about a few hours before Hiccup and Knife had appeared when they started the fire. The fire took place at the heart of the island slowly reaching the outside until the Night Island burnt down. Knife figured that out because the ash from the center of the island was older than the outside. She knew that the Night Furies taken in some sort of nets and dragged along the sand to the ships. After searching the island some more she found a few crumpled Night fury and viking bodies and deducted the Night Furies had fought back. So the Night Furies didn't go down easily...Though anytime they came across a dead Night Fury Scar would launch a plasma blast into the air. Knife supposed that it was a sort of funeral thing that they would launch a blast into the heavens hoping to reach the dragon who had passed. After she finished she returned to the younglings she took care of them. Going out to get fish and bring it back to feed them over time she had named all of them. Though she had a hard time keeping up with them since they had so much energy.

"Silver stop biting Gray's ear! Ash quit taking Dawn's food!"Knife barked back and forth to the younglings trying to get them to behave while Scar patrolled over the eggs checking each pile one by one. This continued on for sometime until Knife started trying to pull the smaller ones off each other. Though they were tiny they had incredible strength. "Dust let go of your sister!" Knife ordered the dragon trying to pull him off with all her might.

"Having fun down there!" A voice shouted from a top the crevice, this startled Dust who let go of his sister which made Knife fall on her but still holding the small Night Fury.

Knife looked up to see her dad and shouted,"Please tell me we weren't as bad!"

"Hah no, you were all worse!"Hiccup laughed as he and Toothless landed safely Toothless carrying a large basket in his teeth.

"You only brought one basket?"

"Nope this one is yours everybody else is waiting outside so they can fill up their so get to work,"Hiccup ordered making Toothless put down the large basket.

"Everyone else?" Knife asked than quickly started to fill up the basket the younglings mimicking her and helping out. She filled up the basket and Hiccup filled up his then Hiccup and Toothless went to the top calling in the next dragon. Down came her mother on Stormfly she had Stormfly put down her basket than made Stormfly pick up Knife's.

"Hey... that's my basket."Knife said to her mother arms crossed.

"Oh I know I figured that you already have a system going with filling these baskets that you can just start filling up everyone else's basket that they leave and you can take the very last. That way we can move faster." Astrid explained, Knife thought about it and agreed. Stormfly and Astrid took off and down came Arve.

Knife looked at the younglings and commanded,"Alright younglings let's get going and put those eggs in the basket! Carefully!" The little Night Furies snorted and began to fill the basket rapidly Thorn grabbed the full basket and began to work on the next. This process went on until they got a larger basket than the rest in which it only could be carried by one dragon and that was Skull. They took a lot longer to fill that up but they finished and Skull grabbed it and took off. Than they were back at their usual pace again filling they had filled all the baskets they than had some eggs left over so Knife had some of the younglings take one to each viking to carry, the extra carried by the older younglings who could carry one each which was enough and Knife took the very last one. Once everyone was ready they all headed back to Berk.


On Berserk Island Dagur and the Berserkers were celebrating their victory over Night Island. Their chants and laughter could be heard throughout the island even in the cages where the dragons and Gunner were kept. Gunner sat in his cage along with Blackwing, Blackwing shackled to the cage so that he couldn't move far. Gunner crawled over to Blackwing and held the dragon's head in his hands and pressed his face against Blackwings cheek. The dragon wrapped a paw around Gunner, there Gunner allowed tears to flow. There in the safety of his dragon's body he cried like a child against his mother's chest. Gunner stopped and wiped his face with his shirt. Hah I just ruined the shirt that Astrid gave me, I hope she wont get mad... If I see them again that is...Gunner looked at Blackwing and caressed the Night Fury's face.

"I"m sorry about this pal...If only I had never...No, I have no regrets. I'm glad I got to meet you, that I got to meet Midnight and Scar...and meet..."Gunner confessed,"This is my fault but I will fix this I swear...If only I could get out of here..."

"But you won't..." a small voice said.

Gunner looked up to see Keir and asked,"What do you plan to do with me? I was content on my island!"

Keir completely unphased responded,"What ever dad deems necessary you ignored your exile so the punishment will be more severe. Dad has to save face and all and can't show mercy to a traitor anymore."

Gunner looked into his little brother's eyes they were black and empty, he questioned his brother,"What happened to you? What happened to the Kari I knew?"

Keir got closer to the bars, inches from his brother's face and answered,"He died a month after you left..." Keir started to walk away but stopped,"After you left Mom died and there was no one left to protect me. I was left to fend for myself, from a gust of wind I became darkness." He continued to walk not looking back at his brother. In Gunner's mind a flashback of how he had been resonated in his mind. Let's go play big brother!Once more Gunner crawled back to Blackwing and began to cry.
