…Well, this is awkward.

In the Great Cave, there, in front of Hiccup and Skrill, is a large table fit for planning a battle plan and behind it, just across Hiccup and Skrill, is the great chief of the Hairy Hooligan Tribe.

"…"

"…"

Stoick has been staring intensely at Skrill, who is showing a friendly grin. Hiccup sighs and decides to speak up.

"Dad. I know you're angry with the vampires-"

"If you know then why have you side with them? They're our natural enemies." Stoick's voice contains malice but Hiccup sensed something more in it…Like he's disappointed.

"They're not. Toothless and his tribe are siding with us."

"It's the truth." Skrill said, crossing her arms against her torso. "We didn't wish to come to you like this, having our vampires attack your werewolves but I can assure you, your people will be safe from harm. We have no ill will to you and we don't blame you for hating us but we're here to clear a misunderstanding. We are here to say you hate the wrong vampire tribe. There are two tribes. The Vampire Revolution and the Vampire Empire. The former is Toothless's group, the ones you should be allied with. The latter, however, is the one we wish to fight against. Something you werewolves have been battling against for the past centuries."

Stoick is displeased. A vampire came here, with his own flesh and blood, attack his people, walk into this place like she own the place and now she dare to speak lies?

"After what you have done in the past? Stealing my tribe's only source of food, attacking our village, killingmy wife?!"

Hiccup bits his lower lip at the last word. Skrill, however, is unfazed. "We had no choice. Before the Vampire Revolution was made, all the vampires have to strive for survival. The king demands food at least 5 feast per day. 5 feast. Meatlug's, our chef's, her mother got killed for not bringing enough food and because of that, it's either feed or be eaten. And attacking your village is something we're not proud of, I'll admit, but as I said, we had no other choice. If we don't attack the village, some of your people will follow us and the moment you step into the Vampire Empire with our current king ruling it, you're in a death match." Skrill sighs softly and closes her eyes. "As for the death of your wife…I cannot say for certain if Toothless didn't kill her… I am truly sorry for the loss of your wife…I am not even sure if I can do anything to fix that…But I can tell you this." Skrill opens her eyes and they burn with so much determination and truth, you know you would lose in her battle. "Your wife wouldn't want you to become a man like this."

Hiccup pales at Skrill's words. No one, not even Gobber, would dare to use Stoick's wife in the line of speaking. He waits for his father reaction and it is as his expected.

Stoick's anger grew and he slams his large hands onto the table.

"YOU DARE SAY THOSE WORDS, DEMON!?" Stoick shouts, his temper losing. "HOW DARE YOU?!"

"And how dare you call your son as not your own!?" Skrill demands, her eyes glaring at him and Hiccup can feel am electrical chill up his spine. "You have the audacity to call me a demon when you, his own father, wouldn't listen a god damn word of his own son's explanation and accused him as what you call a demon?!" Skrill snarls slightly. "I never met your wife before but I know, if she was here, listening to Hiccup's explanation, she would accept the fact our two tribes should unite to defend what we're protecting: The freedom of our people. She may be the wife of the chief of a great Alpha pack but she is the mother of an Omega first." Skrill calms down a little but the disappointment is still in her eyes. "She would still call Hiccup her son, no matter whose side he went to. Hiccup has once hated us but now, he understands us. He may be young but he believes in us and we believe in him, even when he tried taking Toothless's head. He decided to bring us two tribes together. Toothless and Hiccup are similar, even though they're from different worlds. My sister, the mother of Toothless, began what Toothless now continued, what his people are now fighting for. She did it all to bring a brighter era for the new generation. She did it for her children."

"Then you best tell your sister that her dreams will not happen because the werewolves shall kill every dangerous vampire in Berk. She'll be living in a fantasy where it's all broken dreams. Hiccup has been poisoned by you vampires and began following your side! I will not side with the very beings that killed my wife!" Stoick clenches his hands into fists, his stare harden. "Tell your sister that her dream is dead."

Hiccup pales even more. It was one thing to say about Stoick's wife but it's another to say something negative about Mariana to Skrill…He slowly turns to Skrill and he knew…

All hell is breaking loose.

~With the others~

"COME ON, WE HAVE TO HURRY!" Toothless shouts over the battlefield, slamming a fist on a werewolf's face.

"TOOTHLESS, SLOW DOWN!" Hookfang shouts, grunting as he kicks another werewolf to the side. Flightmare sends blue mist around them and all of the werewolves scurry away. He turns to Toothless.

"Aunty Skrill will help. What's wrong with that?"

Toothless shakes his head. "You don't understand…Skrill is…she's…"

CRASH!

Toothless curses under his breath. He looks up at the sky, along with the rest of the other beings, to see a dark cloud swirling above the Great Cave. He knows that sound. It was thunder.

Aw crap.

"TOOTHLESS!" He turns around to see Stormfly running towards him, holding Speedy in her arms. Flightmare, for once, looks scared.

Flightmare. Scared.

"SPEEDY!" Flightmare cries out and runs toward Stormfly, letting her hand him Speedy.

"She'll be alright. She just got hit by a handle of an axe from-"

"RAHHH!" The sound of a female battle cried made Stormfly smirks a bit.

"That's her." Stormfly turns around and grabs the incoming axe, staring at shocked blue eyes. "Hello, darling~"

She growls angrily and yet, Stormfly notices the small, pinkish blush appear on her face.

How cute and feisty.

"Stormfly, enough flirting!" Hookfang shouts and points at the Great Cave. "Skrill is in there! Negotiating!"

That's when Stormfly cringes.

"I'll be right back, cutie." She places a kiss on Astrid's cheek, making the young girl blush and scowl harder. Stormfly lets her go before giving her a low kick, making her fall onto the ground. She turns to her brothers. "Let's go."

As they ran up the cave, Flightmare, carrying Speedy, turns to Toothless. "What's so bad about Skrill negotiating?"

This made the older siblings gulp in fear.

~In the Great Cave, a moment ago~

Hiccup didn't know Skrill is like this.

"Tell your sister that her dream is dead."

Lightning and thunder strike down outside the entrance. Skrill's aura grows dark and dangerous that Hiccup has to step back in slightly fear. Skrill raises a fist and slams it onto the table; electrical sparks makes a line from one end of it to the other, breaking it in two. Her eyes burning with rage.

She raises her fist and opens her hand, showing electrical sparks on her fingertips.

More lightning crashes down and it heads into the cave, surrounding Skrill's open hand into an electrical ball. She throws it to Stoick and he barely dodges it. The wall takes the attack and because of that, a broken dent appears on it. Stoick reaches for his hammer that hangs around his waist but he suddenly stops.

"Don't move." Skrill's voice, so angry and full of malice, echoes through the cave and Stoick suddenly feels something wrapped around his wrists and his eyes widen at the sight of what is restraining him. Electricity wraps itself around his wrists and he notices Skrill holding a chain of it. Before Stoick can curse, Skrill's look darkens and she swings the chain to the right and then left, slamming Stoick into a wall twice. She lifts her chain of lightning and whips it to the ground, making Stoick slam into the front wall, just across the broken table.

She walks towards Stoick calmly, her eyes cold and serious. She grips beard, yanking it for Stoick to look directly at her eyes.

"Alright, listen, Mr. Stubborn. I have been holding my patience for a while and if you're not going to listen to me, then fine, I get that. But listen to your own son before I rip off this beard of yours and have you turn into your werewolf form and shave every fur you have. And I can do so with a flick of my lightning on the nerve that changes you so don't try resisting." She lets his beard go while the chief grunts in pain. She turns to Hiccup, smiling almost like a grandmother comforting her grandchild. "You're up."

Hiccup never knew how vicious Skrill is. No wonder the siblings are scared.

He walks towards Stoick and Skrill steps aside, letting Hiccup speak with his father privately.

"Dad…" Hiccup speaks softly and Stoick didn't dare to meet his eyes. "…Dad, I know I'm disappointing you but…you have to understand. Times change."

"…They killed your mother, Hiccup. You would let them go?"

Hiccup moves his eyes to the side. He closes them and lets out a stressed breath, trying to have confidence in what he's about to say. He opens them and looks at his father with the eyes of a well-grown chief. "They may have killed her…But Skrill is right…Mom wouldn't have want this. She would want us to fight for the peace of our people. I have lived with them and they changed my view on things. Not all of them are evil, dad…Give them another chance. They deserve it. They won't let you down."

Stoick hangs his head low and closes his eyes. "I wish I could, Hiccup…But that day has been haunting me…I can't let it go so easily. Your mother was gone after the Beast rampage the forest."

Hiccup's eyes widen. "What?"

Stoick raises his head and looks at his eyes. "I saw it, Hiccup. The Beast was there. I don't know how it set the fire in the forest but it was there, with your mother. I tried finding you but the fire was too strong. The last time I saw your mother was she was lying on the ground, under a branch. When the fire was gone, all I found was you lying on the ground with burn marks on your body. I was worried you were beyond hurt and have you get immediate medical care while I find your mother…She was gone. Without a trace…I'm sorry, Hiccup…" Stoick sighs sadly and shakes his head, closing his eyes. "If I had come sooner…I would have save you and prevent your mother's death…"

Hiccup sadly stares at his father with remorse. Both of them grieve for the loss of their family member all this time and his father took the toll the most. His own lover was gone before he get to say goodbye…

It's heartbreaking…

Hiccup wraps his arms around his father, hugging him tightly. "You did your best, dad…Mom would've been proud…"

Stoick's eyes widen before they got glassy. Seeing the chief's tears, Skrill released the bonds, letting Stoick hug his son in a fatherly embrace, something Hiccup didn't get for a long time.

"She's not dead."

Hiccup's and Stoick's eyes widen and they turn to Toothless, who steps towards them with a serious look.

"Your wife isn't dead." Toothless repeats, making Stoick shakes his head.

"No. I swear, I saw the Beast-"

"The Beast didn't get her, if memory serves. She's still alive…somewhere…" Toothless sighs softly. "Someone saved her in the fire and got her away from danger. I don't know where she went but she's safe and sound. But it's possible she would be in a coma or something like that."

"But her scent-"

"It got blocked." Toothless answers coolly. "I don't know who this person is or was but it's possible that they want her safe so they keep her somewhere where no one can find her. Maybe she went into a coma or planning something, I don't know, but those are the theories I have come up with her not coming home yet." Hiccup gaps a bit before shaking his head.

"Wait…you mean you saw what happen?"

Toothless furrows his brow. "Well, barely. My memory is a bit fuzzy."

Although it is only a bit of information, the happy news is his mom is alive! The only problem now is if she's safe away from the King…

Stoick seems to know what Hiccup is thinking too. "Then we better clean up the mess we have right now for my wife to return to a peaceful home." He smiles down at Hiccup and places a hand on his shoulder before turning to Toothless, who reaches out his hand.

"So…do we have a deal in the alliance?"

Stoick stares at the hand for a moment before staring at Toothless. He chuckles softly and pats his son on the back.

"You said the alliance will be because the goal is to defeat the Vampire King." He looks fatherly at Hiccup, smiling. "And also to wed my son. You two really love each other, huh…?" He receives two nods and he chuckles, feeling a bit sad that his son has become all grown up. A normal thing for a parent to feel. "Then let this alliance be sealed with a kiss."

Hiccup blushes dark red and he could have sworn he hears cheering outside. Before he can say anything, Toothless grabs his waist and holds him like they're in a tango dance and they just did a dip.

"Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III…Will you marry me?" Toothless asks softly, a smile gracing on his lips and his pale cheeks grow slightly pink from him popping the big question.

Hiccup smiles sweetly and leans to his face, whispering softly. "I do…Toothless Night Fury."

Before Toothless can even be shock at being called by his full name, Hiccup grabs his cheeks and pulls him into a blissful kiss, earning loud wolf-whistles, cheers and occasional woots.

Unknown to them, watching over Berk Forest is a figure looking down at it. Its lips curling to a smile and the figure turns around morphing into a being and escaping into the woods.


With the alliance formed and the bad grudge gone, the Vampire Revolution has allied with the Hairy Hooligan! Huzzah! But what will wait for them in the dark battles that are yet to come? Be patient and hold on to your seat, folks, for this is something no being will forget…
