Chapter 19: We Are Family Part I
'Vikings have a strong sense of community. It's important for us to be a part of a family and to celebrate that connection.'
The island is putting up decorations for a celebration they call, Bork Week. Everyone was doing something to contribute to the celebration. Dragons were setting up a banner as well as bringing wood for a stage. Gobber was changing his prosthetic hook to a hammer and finishes carving a statue of a man.
"Happy Bork Week, Magnus." Gobber says to a male Viking carrying a bag over his shoulder. "And a good Bork Week to you, Seamus." He says to the Viking drinking a table.
"Cheers!" Seamus yells raising his mug.
"Most importantly, a spectacular Bork Week to you, great-great-grandpa Bork." Gobber says to the statue of his ancestor.
"Best week of the year, eh, Gobber?" Mulch asks looking at the statue with the Blacksmith and Bucket.
"Right up there with stump day." Gobber says banging his prosthetic hammer with Mulch's prosthetic hook.
"Ahh! The good old days. Brings tears to me eyes. We could use a man like Bork around here." Mildew says trying to be persuasive.
"Tradition's a fine thing, Mildew. But things have changed-for the better, if you ask me." Gobber says.
"I didn't." Mildew grips at his failed attempt while his sheep, Fungus, baas.
"We've come a long way from the time when it was us or the dragons. You might be a little less crusty if you got used to that, Mildew." Gobber says to the old man.
"I'll pass, thanks." Mildew says as Fungus baas again. "When are Bork's archives going on display? You've still got that dragon-gutting dagger of his, don't you?" He asks pointing his staff at the Blacksmith.
"They'll all be in the great hall tomorrow. Don't you worry." Gobber says as he walks away leaving Mildew grumbling.
Outside the village in the cove, Hicca stands on top of a boulder and plays a song on her flute.
"That's why you brought us out here? To blow your stupid flute into the wind?" Snotlout asks.
"Just wait, Snotlout." Fishlegs says to the girl.
"Dragon calls. More like flute playing. Whatever." Snotlout says with a scoff as she sitting on the log behind her and pulls out a medallion with a reflective surface.
"Uh, guys?" Hicca says to the twins as they are captivated by the light reflecting off Snotlout's medallion.
"Idiots." Snotlout says chuckling.
"Snotlout." Hicca says trying to get the girl to stupid teasing the twins.
"So stupid." Snotlout says ignoring her.
"Seriously?" Hicca asks.
"What? It's fun. Fine." Snotlout says with a sigh as she puts the medallion away.
"Ugh, gone again." Tuffnut says a second later.
Hicca shakes her head and starts playing her flute again with the same song. A few seconds pass and Snotlout looks around to see nothing.
"And nothing. Can we go now?" Snotlout asks but then she hears dragons roaring.
"You were saying?" Asher asks as he looks to see all of Hicca's dragons appear each from different directions; Toothless and Melt jumped into the cove from the wall coming from the south, Bones and Serpentina flew into the cove from the east, Grabble appeared in a veil of smoke coming from the west, and Mist appeared from the lake that was facing north. They all then settled beside their rider on the large boulder.
"Fine. I hate to admit it, but that was pretty cool." Snotlout says.
"Thank you. I call that song 'March of the Dragon'. I figured I can use it to call any of my dragon I don't take with me for help if I need it. So far they've heard it all the way for Dragon Island since dragons have really good hearing." Hicca explains to the riders.
"Wow, Hicca that was really smart and totally cool how as well." Ruffnut says to her best friend.
"Not as cool as that disappearing shiny thing. You can never catch it." Tuffnut says making his sister glares at him.
"Fishlegs, you wanna show us your dragon call?" Hicca asks as she sitting down in between her seven dragons.
"Thought you'd never ask. The call of the Gronckle is as unique as the dragon itself-raw, guttural, intense, yet with a subtle lilt." Fishlegs says going on about her dragon's species.
"J-j-just do it, already." Snotlout says already annoyed by the girl's dragon information.
Fishlegs then releases a loud growl and from above the cove wall Meatlug flies and spots her rider.
"You called, Fishlegs?" Meatlug asks.
"Well done, Fishlegs." Hicca says leaning against Mist.
"Oh, I'm not done. Watch this." Fishlegs says and releases a deeper growl.
"I don't even wanna know what part of his body that came from-or do I?" Tuffnut asks himself.
"I gotta take a knee." Fishlegs says after exhaling and falls to her knees.
Just then seven more Gronckles flew over the cove.
"Wow, nice herd." Tuffnut says impressed.
"Be home for dinner! You're having granite!" Fishlegs shouts to a retreating Meatlug going to join the other Gronckles. "That's her favorite." She says to the riders.
"Okay. Anybody think they can beat that?" Hicca asks.
"I'll give it a shot. Watch this." Asher says stepping onto another boulder and howls like dragon causing six Deadly Nadders to fly past the cove with Stormfly joining them.
"Good job, Asher, first try." Hicca says congratulating her crush.
"Uh, I have an important question." Tuffnut says.
Is it actually important this time?" Hicca asks with a sigh looking at her best friend's brother.
"Uh, yeah. It always is. Like, why are we even doing this anyway? I don't get it." Tuffnut says.
"Well, first of all, you never know when you're gonna be separated from your dragon. And the only way to communicate is to call it." Hicca explains.
"Sorry. Didn't get it." Tuffnut says.
"Second of all, it's Bork Week, and my daddy asked us to put on a dragon air parade." Hicca says.
"Why do we care about this Bork guy anyway? Wasn't he a dragon killer?" Ruffnut asks.
"Hey, Bork only killed dragons in self-defense. He studied them, wrote about them, lived and breathed them." Fishlegs says to the twins.
"And without him, there would be no Book of Dragons." Hicca says.
"And without the Book of Dragons, there'd be no-" Fishlegs begins to finish Hicca's sentence.
"Reason for you to live?" Snotlout jokes making the twins chuckles.
"Dragon academy, actually. And there would be no really cool dragon air show." Hicca says.
"So when we do this really cool dragon air show, who's they gonna fly with?" Snotlout asks pointing to Hicca's dragons while walking up to her.
"I'm working on that." Hicca says grimly remembering her dragons are the only ones of their kind on Berk.
In Gobber's smithy, Gobber was on a ladder going through the top level of his smithy.
"Bork, oh, Bork, we sing your song The man who studied dragons long Without your work there'd be no Berk Woe's the day you went berserk" Gobber sings as he pushes a basket aside and laughs seeing a chest as he rubs the lock. "Ah ha ha! Gotcha." He says as he exhales, blowing the dust off the chest.
Gobber then slides down the ladder and when he turns around he sees Mildew standing two feet away from him, grumbling.
"Aah! Mildew! You don't sneak up on a man with a hook for an arm." Gobber says to the old man raising his prosthetic hook to make a point.
"Yeah, but I've got an emergency." Mildew says as Fungus baas. "My wagon wheel just snapped coming into town. My cabbage is all over the road!" He says.
"Can't it wait, Mildew? I've got to get these archives over to the Great Hall." Gobber says walking past the old man carrying the chest under his arm.
"But my cabbage, Gobber!" Mildew shouts and then groans. "Whatever happened to customer service?" He asks.
"All right." Gobber says placing the chest on the table and a dagger on top of it.
"Hmm-wha-" Mildew was about to say reaching for the dagger but stops when he sees Gobber stick his head back into the smithy.
"You touch that dagger and I'll show you how well it works." Gobber says threatening the old man.
"Hmm." Mildew says eying the chest suspiciously.
Elsewhere in the village, Hicca and her dragons were looking at the Gronckles as they fly by.
"I wish there were other dragons of your species for you everyone." Hicca says with a sigh as she scratches Grabble's chin.
"Hicca, were fine with being the only one of our kind on Berk." Serpentina says trying to make her rider feel better.
Just then Stormfly flies in and lands behind Hicca with Asher jumping off his dragon with an excited look on his face.
"There you are. Hey, check out my Nadders. I finally got them flying in perfect formation." Asher says pointing at the five Nadders flying over head in a perfect 'V'.
"Wow, yeah, that's-that's great." Hicca says not really selling the excitement.
"Hicca?" Asher ask worried about his crush.
"I've just been thinking, Stormfly has other Nadders. Hookfang has a whole herd of Monstrous Nightmares. And my dragon have-my dragons have no one. I mean sure Bones, Serpentina, Mist, Etch, Grabble, and Melt have others of their kind out there but they rarely seen." Hicca says looking down.
"They has you. And they look pretty happy, if you ask me." Asher says as they look to see Hicca's dragons minus Mist and Bones playfully wrestling in the grass.
"Oh you wanna fight." Toothless says tackling Melt to the ground.
"Bring it on." Melt says.
"Hey don't leave me out of this." Grabble says getting in on the wrestling.
"I'll beat you boys to the in the ground." Serpentina says slithering into the wrestling dragons.
"Not before I take all of you down." Etch says diving into the pile.
"Kids." Bones says watching.
"They're young, Bones, let them have their fun." Mist says also watching their younger siblings play.
"You gave Bones the final piece to his armor, you helped heal Serpentina back to full health, you ended a grudge between Toothless and Etch, and you gave Mist, Grabble, and Melt a home when they were alone. You gave them a family, something none of them have had in a long time.
"You know what I mean." Hicca says.
"Hicca, your dragons will be fine. Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. Your father and Gobber are looking for you. They wanna see you in the Great Hall. They looked serious." Asher says as he climbs back onto Stormfly's saddle.
"Yeah, great. Happy Bork Week to me." Hicca says.
In the Great Hall, Hicca approaches a group of older Vikings, with Stoick, Gobber, and Spitelout Jorgenson among them.
"Okay, this is weird." Hicca says.
"Hicca, come forward, and hold out your hands." Stoick says to his daughter as she was about to do that but hides her hands a second later.
"Uh, daddy, Gobber, other scary looking Vikings, I'd just like to say, in my own defense, that I cannot control Snotlout or the twins 24 hours a day." Hicca says pleading her case.
"This isn't about those jokers, Hicca. It's something really good." Gobber whispers to Hicca making Stoick grunt.
"Now then, Hicca, as you know, Bork Week has begun-the first one since we made peace with the dragons. So it has been decided that from this moment forward, all things dragon-related, including Bork's life's work, shall be entrusted to you and the academy." Stoick says shocking his daughter as Gobber places the chest from his smithy on the table.
"This is where the Book of Dragons started. Everything he ever wrote on the subject is in these notes-personal thoughts, feelings, fears, even some delicious recipes." Gobber says placing the contains of the chest on the table.
"Whoa. I-I don't know what to say. Thank you, daddy. This is-" Hicca begins to say.
"Darling, this is a big part of our history. You and the dragons are a big part of our future. It's now up to you to take care of both." Stoick says as Gobber places the contains back in the chest and holds it to Hicca but when she takes hold of it Gobber refuses to let go.
"Gobber…" Stoick says but Gobber still doesn't let go. "Gobber!" He yells.
"Right." Gobber says releasing the chest as Hicca grunts. "They're yours now." He says like he was going to cry.
Later that evening, Hicca is going through the notes in her room.
"Whoa. Toothless, look at all this, sweetie. It's amazing." Hicca says as Toothless lets out a yawn like growl and lays down on his bed. "These are his personal notes. Everything he observed about dragons is right here-along with some rather interesting sketches of his neighbors." She says making herself shudder at the image. "Can't unsee that." She says as she places the book on the ground but one of the page's corners unravels, revealing hidden sheets. "This is all on the Night Fury. It's all about you, sweetie." She says causing her Night Fury to wake up.
"Wait, what?" Toothless asks looking over to his rider.
"Bork didn't put any of this in the Book of dragons. "My studies lead me to conclude that an entire island exists teaming with mysterious Night Furies. I call this land the Isle of Night." An island…filled with Night Furies." Hicca says getting Toothless' attention.
"Isle of Night? I've never heard of it." Toothless says walking over to his rider.
"Well you said you were alone since you were born but Toothless, we have to find that island. If we do, we find your family." Hicca says rubbing Toothless' face.
"All right." Toothless says determined.
The next day, Hicca, her dragons Etch and Serpentina, and the other riders are en route to Bork's cave, his last known place of residence, to find the Isle of Night.
"So let me get this straight. To find this island, we have to find Bork's cave?" Snotlout asks.
"His last known place of residence." Fishlegs informs the girl.
"Who would live in a cave?" Asher asks.
"Who wouldn't?" Tuffnut asks.
"There must be something in there about the Isle of Night and where we can find it." Hicca says.
"Bork's note said his cave was cut into the mountains right above Odin's shield." Fishlegs says to Hicca as she looks ahead.
"Right there!" Hicca shouts pointing to the mountain with a flat area. "That must be it." She says as the riders land on the flat area.
"Um, so wait, so how do we know what we're looking for?" Tuffnut asks.
"It's a cave. Look for a big hole in the side of a mountain." Asher says.
"Hole, check." Tuffnut says.
"Mountain, on it." Ruffnut says.
"You know, we don't have to bring them every time." Asher says but then they all cover their ears with they hear an irritating howl.
"That noise." Toothless says wincing.
"Make it stop." Serpentina says in pain.
"No kidding." Etch says burying her head in the ground.
"It hurts my ears." Stormfly says.
"Whoa!" Ruffnut shouts.
"Aah!" Tuffnut yells.
"What the heck?" Barf and Belch ask together as they raise their heads.
"What in the world was that?" Fishlegs asks.
"Seriously." Meatlug asks hovering beside Hookfang.
"That is a Changewing call, my friend. Surprised you didn't know that." Snotlout says.
"Are you kidding?" Hookfang asks embarrassed by his rider.
"I would've if it sounded like one. This is a Changewing." Fishlegs says as she does a high-pitched howl making Snotlout scoff.
"Bet you can't do a Thunderdrum." Snotlout says in anger.
"Please. At least challenge me." Fishlegs says as she grunts while clearing her throat and then releases a bellowing growl.
Everyone and every dragon winces in pain from hearing the growl.
"Fishlegs, quit it." Hicca says.
"Ow!" Asher shouts covering his ears.
"Stop it! Stop!" Snotlout shouts covering her ears.
"Ow, you sound terrible!" Ruffnut shouts.
"Okay, okay. Enough, Fishlegs. That's good." Hicca says making her stop and giggle. "Hey, I found an opening." She says as the dragons start walking towards the cave on the other side of the mountain.
"That Bork was a dweeb, but boy, he could climb like a mountain goat." Snotlout says but then they hear growls.
"Fishlegs, I thought we agreed to ease up on the dragon calls." Hicca says turning to glare at the girl thinking it was her.
"Actually, that wasn't me. Mine's far more authentic." Fishlegs says to the group but then the dragon growls were heard again in from behind the mountain came a purple Thunderdrum.
"You wanna tell that to him?" Asher asks as Stormfly hovers in the air.
"Head for the cave!" Hicca yells as Toothless takes off with Serpentina and Etch following and the others as well.
The teens head for the cave, only for the entrance to have disappeared.
"Wait. What cave?" Ruffnut asks as they hover in front of the mountain side where the cave use to be.
"We just saw it! There was a hole." Asher says looking around.
"Yeah, and now the hole's gone." Tuffnut says but then the Thunderdrum swoops in nearly hitting Hicca.
"Snotlout, Ruff, and Tuff, you guys look for the cave opening. We'll lure the Thunderdrum away. Fishlegs, Thunderdrum call!" Hicca orders.
"Wish you'd make up your mind." Fishlegs says and clears her throat taking her sweet time.
"Fishlegs!" Hicca yells in anger.
Fishlegs then growls like a Thunderdrum causing the purple Thunderdrum to come after her.
"Aah!" Fishlegs screams.
"Hang on!" Meatlug shouts as she swerves to avoid the Thunderdrum.
Meanwhile Snotlout, Ruffnut, and Tuffnut were still looking for the cave entrance. Tuffnut bangs his helmet against the mountain causing him to fall to the ground while Ruffnut ram her helmet covered head into the mountain getting the same result.
"It was right here. I swear it was." Snotlout says tapping against the mountain side but then a Changewing reveals itself to the girl. "Aah! Oh, no! Unh!" She yells as the Changewing grabs her. "Hey, hey! Put me down! Hookfang!" She screams for her dragon.
"I'm coming." Hookfang says flying towards his rider.
"Way to go, Hookfang!" Snotlout shouts but then Hookfang flames up and breaths fire at the Changewing and Snotlout as well. "Aah! Go away, Hookfang!" She yells.
"Fine." Hookfang says and flies away.
Meanwhile Fishlegs and Meatlug were still swerving to avoid the Thunderdrum.
"Aah! Okay. Little help here." Fishlegs says.
"Go see what you can find. We'll keep this guy busy." Asher says to his crush.
"What about Snotlout?" Hicca asks pointing to the captured girl.
"Ooh! Not feeling the trust!" Snotlout shouts.
"Ruff! Tuff!" Asher shouts.
"On it." They both says grinning as they head towards Snotlout.
"You're giving me the twins? Aah! Unh!" Snotlout yells in pain as the Changewing bangs her against the mountain side. "Okay! I'll take the twins! Unh!" She says continuing to be banged against the mountain.
"Go!" Asher shouts.
Hicca then directs Toothless to the cave with her Grapple Grounder and Whispering Death following.
"Careful, sweetie. Bork's cave, this is it." Hicca says seeing Viking artifacts scattered across the cave. "We have to hurry, sweetie. Etch, Serpentina, let's go." She says as the three dragons take off.
Outside Fishlegs and Meatlug swerve through rock pillars while the Thunderdrum rams through the pillars like it's nothing. Unfortunately Fishlegs and Meatlug come to a dead end in the mountain with the Thunderdrum charging right at them only to dive upwards when it hears Asher imitating it's dragon call at the top of the mountain.
"Thank you! If I survive, I can help you fine tune that call." Fishlegs says.
"Oh, here's an idea. We could blast her out." Tuffnut says as he, Ruffnut, Barf and Belch watch Snotlout try to get free from the Changewing.
"Yeah! Let's blast her!" Ruffnut says excited for her brother's idea.
"What? No! No blasting! Blasting bad! Blasting hurt! Long was down-" Snotlout tries to stop the twins but then already had their dragon release its gas and ignite it only for the Changewing to jump further away from them. "Much better, thank you." Snotlout says sarcastically.
Inside the cave Hicca and her dragons set down and look around the dark area.
"There's gotta be something here." Hicca says walking around.
"One second." Serpentina says fire two pulse blasts at opposite cave walls.
"Thanks, Serpentina." Hicca says to her Grapple Grounder but then sees something on the ceiling. "What is that?" She asks seeing a map drawn into the cave ceiling. "Toothless, it's a map-to the Isle of Night! We found it, gang! Okay. I gotta get this down." She says pulling out her sketch book and starts drawing the map while muttering but then the cave starts rumbling. "What was that?" She asks.
Outside the Thunderdrum continues to chase Asher, Stormfly, Fishlegs, and Meatlug only for it to release a sonic blast near the mountain causing the cave to rumble and the ceiling begins to crack where the map is.
"No, no, no, no, no, come on! I need more time." Hicca says hurrying with her drawing while Toothless shields her and Etch destroys the larger rocks coming towards them. "That's it. We have to get out of here." She says closing her book.
The Thunderdrum releases another sonic blast hitting the cave entrance causing it to collapse.
"Hicca's trapped." Asher says after seeing the entrance collapse.
"Aah! I'm in a tough spot here myself." Snotlout says.
"I know you think our plan didn't work, but believe me, this Changewing is playing right into our hand." Tuffnut says laying against the wall.
"Sorry." Snotlout says grunt while the Changewing uses her as like a yo-yo. "I don't believe you. Unh! Aah! Stupid drag-aah!" She screams when the Changewing drops her only to use its antenna to grab her again but then Snotlout punches the Changewing in the face making the dragon growl. "Oh, no." She says.
"Well, this is just great. We're trapped. And you and Serpentina can't use your shots without bringing the whole ceiling down. And Etch can't tunnel use out because the cave it too unstable.
"Hang on." Toothless says and release a loud growl.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! What was that?" Hicca asks.
"Shh." Toothless says as his ear perks up and then forces Hicca onto his saddle. "Follow me, girls." He says to his sisters.
"Ahh. Whoa. Okay, where are you going? How are you seeing?" Hicca asks as Toothless swerves through the cave with Serpentina and Etch following closely behind him. "Woooaaahhh!" She yells as the cave starts collapsing but thankfully she and her dragons made it out. "Yes! We got it! Thanks, sweetie." She says to her Night Fury petting his head affectionately.
"Yeah. Thanks bro." Serpentina and Etch say.
"No problem." Toothless says enjoying the attention as they regroup with the other riders.
"Somebody call for backup?" Hicca asks.
"Hicca, you made it!" Asher says glad to see his crush is alright.
"Please don't ask me how, because I have no idea." Hicca says.
"We got this. Go help Snotlout." Asher says to her as she takes other to assist their friend.
Snotlout was now being held close to the Changewing's stomach and attempting to feed her dragon nip.
"Aw, you made a new friend." Hicca says smiling.
"Yeah, it's not as friendly as it looks." Snotlout says but then Toothless fires a plasma blast at the Changewing, driving it away and in the process, drops her. "Aah!" She screams falling downward.
"Hookfang, now!" Hicca orders.
"On it!" Hookfang shouts and flies up and grabs his rider.
"Aah! Unh!" Snotlout yells as she falls onto Hookfang's saddle. "Now that's how you rescue somebody." She says to the twins.
"Hey, everything went exactly as we planned." Tuffnut says.
"Yeah. Keep the Changewing busy until Hicca shows up." Ruffnut says chuckling as they mount Barf and Belch and the riders head home.
"I still can't believe you guys survived that cave-in." Asher says.
"Neither can I. I mean, it was all Toothless. He-he sent out this weird sound, it bounced back toward us, and somehow he used it to find his way out." Hicca explains.
"I don't get it. How do you use sound to guide you?" Fishlegs asks.
"I do it all the time. Whenever I hear your voice, I go the other way." Snotlout says chuckling.
"So did you find anything?" Asher asks.
"Only a map-to the Isle of Night." Hicca says.
"Nice! When do we leave?" Asher asks.
"First thing in the morning. By this time tomorrow, sweetie, you are going to be knee-deep in Night Furies." Hicca says.
"Can't wait." Toothless says and does a loop in the air.
Later that evening, while sketching the map to a larger piece of paper, Hicca is looking at Bork's notes.
"It says there's a reason that there's only Night Furies on that island." Hicca says looking through the notes.
"Why's that?" Toothless asks walking over.
"Turns out you guys aren't so friendly to other dragons. "Herds of Night Furies can be extremely hostile to other species."
If the other kids come with me on their dragons or if we take any of your brothers or sisters-" Hicca says with a sigh making a tough decision. "Well, looks like it's just you and me, sweetie." She says grabbing her satchel, an apple, a water container, and her flute before closing the door to her house. "Well, this is it, Toothless. You're finally gonna see you're not alone. Next stop, the Island of night." She says mounting Toothless' saddle and takes off into the night.
The next morning, after meeting with the remaining riders are waiting at the academy for Hicca to arrive.
"Where's Hicca?" Fishlegs asks.
"It is morning, right?" Tuffnut asks.
"She wouldn't-would she?" Asher asks himself as he makes Stormfly take off.
At Hicca's house Asher enters to find Stoick sitting in his chair carving a duck from wood.
"I'm sorry to bother you, sir." Asher says to his chief.
"Oh, it's not a problem, Asher. Just doing my morning woodwork. It's quite relaxing." Stoick says.
"Um, sir, have you seen Hicca?" Asher asks.
"Well, I woke up and she was already gone. She even left all her dragons but Toothless behind. Should I tell her you're looking for her?" Stoick asks.
"How about I just leave her a note in her room?" Asher asks.
"Ah, well, be my guest." Stoick says returning to his woodcarving while Asher enters Hicca's room to see it's empty but spots her notebook.
Asher then walks back outside to see Fishlegs and Meatlug waiting for him.
"Hicca must've copied the map from her notebook-fortunately." Asher says holding up the notebook.
"Yes!" Fishlegs says excitedly.
Hicca and Toothless arrive at the Isle of Night and touch down on the ground.
"Relax, sweetie. Trust me. If this map is right, you're gonna like what we find here." Hicca says.
"I hope your right." Toothless says and then runs off with Hicca still on his saddle.
The two then come to a ledge where they get a better look of the island only to see it's deserted.
"Are you ready?" Hicca says after exhaling.
"As I'll ever be." Toothless says.
"Okay. Here goes." Hicca says and holds her flute to her lips and imitates a Night Fury howl with it.
They wait for a second and then hear distant howling.
"I can't believe it. Did you hear that?" Hicca asks.
"I did." Toothless says and then howls receiving a distant howling back at him.
In the distance, another Night Fury emerges from behind a rock.
"Bork was right." Hicca says as she dismounts Toothless. "Go get 'em, Toothless." She says as Toothless hops down the ledge and walks towards the Night Fury but looks back at Hicca.
"Come on." Toothless says to his rider.
"It's okay. Go, go. I'm right behind you." Hicca says walking down the ledge.
Toothless makes his way towards where the Night Fury is and howls but when he arrives there is only a rock wall.
"Something's not right. Why don't I sense any dragons here. Toothless, come back!" Hicca calls to her Night Fury.
"Alright." Toothless says but is then attacked by thrown bolas that wrap around his feet.
"Toothless, no!" Hicca yells and runs to her dragons only to be pinned to the ground by Outcast soldiers. "Aah!" She yells trying to get free as four more Outcasts restrain Toothless.
Just then a familiar figure walks up to Hicca making her grit her teeth in anger.
"Alvin." Hicca says and then appears as more Outcasts move the other Night Fury, which was actually a realistic dummy, and Savage stands behind him holding a large horn that they used to make Night Fury calls realizing the whole thing was a trap set by the Outcasts.
"Amazingly realistic, wouldn't you say, Hicca?" Alvin asks the girl.
"Let go of him!" Hicca says grunting. "What do you want?" She asks.
"I want me own dragon trainer. And by the looks of it, I've got her." Alvin says.
"I am not going to train your dragons, Alvin." Hicca says.
"Oh, I think you will." Alvin says chuckling evilly. "And once you have, I'll use 'em to destroy Berk. Take her!" Alvin orders his men.
"Aah! I don't understand. How did you do this?" Hicca says as she is escorted but still restrained.
Back on Berk, Gobber arrives at Mildew's house with his wheel as good as new.
"Mildew, open up!" Gobber yells knocking on the old man's door. "I've got your wheel, and she's good as new. Home delivery! You don't get better customer service than this." He says to himself but there was no answer. "Oh, come on, you cranky old-I know you're in there." He says and then kicks open the door only to find the place empty. "What in the name of Odin's skivvies?" He asks in confusion.
At the academy the riders are preparing to leave but then Stoick arrives on Thornado with the rest of Hicca's dragons.
"Has anyone seen Hicca? Where are you lot off to?" Stoick asks.
"Uh, just a training exercise." Asher lies but then Stoick walks over to Fishlegs.
"Ah-ha." Stoick says as he dismounts Thornado and walks over to Fishlegs. "Fishlegs?" He asks.
"Aah! Aah!" Fishlegs yelps covering her mouth while whimpering. "We're going to the Isle of Night to look for Hicca. It's an island full of Night Furies, could be dangerous, maybe not. Wanna come?" She asks while Asher bangs his head against Stormfly's wing.
"There you are, Stoick. Strangest thing at Mildew's place. It's completely cleared out, no sign of him anywhere." Gobber says walking into the academy carrying Mildew's wheel.
On the Outcast's ship, after the Outcasts have restrained Hicca and Toothless.
"Let me go!" Toothless growls but then Mildew appears with his sheep, Fungus.
"Mildew, what are you doing here?" Hicca asks.
"Ah, look at ya. The brightest girl on the island, and yet, here you are, trapped by a silly old man and his sheep." Mildew says taunting the girl.
"How could you do this?" Hicca asks.
"You did it, Hicca. You believed our Bork notes. You followed the map we drew. You walked right into our trap, all for the love of a dragon. Mm, maybe you'll think twice next time about where you place your loyalties." Mildew says while Alvin pushes the old man aside laughing.
"There won't be a next time. Raise the sails! We're headed home…to Outcast island." Alvin says.
Author's Note: Well there you have it. Please be sure to review. Stay tuned for the last chapter: We Are Family Part II.
Also the song March of the Dragon is a real song so go on YouTube and type it in. Hicca can paly that song on her flute to summon all her dragons anywhere but she can play different songs to summon a certain dragon as well as imitate dragon calls too.
