The lights of Republic City came into view as Toothless flew through the dark. He had flown two days straight, with the occasional half hour nap, and he was exhausted. Flying did a number on both of them, as well as what had occurred on his journey. He simply couldn't get it out of his head, he was a mistake, and right now what he needed was to be as far away from those people as humanly possible.

After getting Toothless into the stables, Hiccup began to make his way towards his room. Approaching his door, he found that it wouldn't open. After trying again, he realized something, he had left his bag on the island. Hiccup face palmed, Of course...had to leave your key at the one place you don't want to go. Hiccup thought to himself.

"Hiccup?" he turned to see Korra in a black tank top and sweat pants, "Hiccup!" she exclaimed, lunging forwards and throwing her arms around his neck. Hiccup gratefully returns the embrace. Before he could say anything though, she pulls him into a passionate kiss. Hiccup felt a strange sense of...joy pass over him. Pulling away Korra gave him another bear hug, "I didn't expect you back for another week. What- oh my sprits." she said, getting a good look at Hiccup.

"What? What's wrong?" he asked, Korra reached out a hand and brushed against his chin, "You have facial hair." she said. Hiccup ran a hand over his face, she was right. Usually he's clean shaven and doesn't grow his hair out, but with everything that's happened it must have slipped his mind.

"Yay, I get to put a razor blade against my neck, that'll be fun." he said sarcastically, Korra raised a eye, "Sorry?" Hiccup shook his head, "No I am. I left my key on the island I was staying at. So I'm sleeping in the stables." he said. As he was about to head back to Toothless, Korra grabbed him on the arm, "You don't...need to sleep in the stables." Hiccup turned to see her blushing red, "I...I have enough room in my bed." it was his turn to blush bright red. "Korra...sure, I-I-I'd like that." Hiccup nervously replied.

Korra led him into her room and pointed to the bathroom, "You can change in there, if you need to." Hiccup nodded and nearly sprinted into the bathroom. After changing into his pj's, he exited the room to see Korra undoing her wolf tails, "Wow, I never thought I'd see the day." he said, Korra smirked, "Laugh it up dragon boy." Hiccup went over to the side opposite of Korra and undid the straps on his leg, "Do you need any help with that?" Korra asked, looking over his shoulder. Hiccup shook his head, "Nah, I'm fine." he replied as he laid down, "Man, it feels awesome laying down on a real mattress."

Korra gave a small smile, "You still haven't answered my question." she said looking down at him, "What are you doing back so soon? Did you...you know?" she asked. Hiccup thought back to what transpired mere days ago and felt his jaw tighten, "I-I'll tell you about it tomorrow." he said rolling onto his side, facing away from Korra. She knew he was hiding something.

"Hiccup, what happened? Did you find your home? Or are-" she stopped herself when she saw tears in Hiccup's eyes, "Hiccup. Talk to me. I promised you, and you promised me." she said, gently putting a hand on his shoulder. He sighed, I did promise her. But...hell if I don't tell her now she won't let me sleep. he thought. Turning over to face her, he saw that she was truly concerned, which made him feel more horrible, "Well. I didn't find my home, but I did find people from my home." Korra smiled, "That's great! Right?" she asked. Hiccup raised his hand and tilted his hand left and right. "So, so. Anyway, they're from the isle of, try not to laugh, Berk." Korra smirked at the simple name. As he told her about the Vikings she couldn't help but chuckle at their names, "Seriously? Snotlout?" she asked in disbelief, Hiccup just nodded.

"Oh my sprits that's hilarious!" she said clutching her stomach and falling back onto the bed. Hiccup let a smile grace his lips, "Yea, it is. But back to the topic, after I got Toothless of Astrid and asked Gobber why I was in the raft..." he trailed off. How the hell do I tell her? He thought, Korra laced her fingers with his and gave him a squeeze of encouragement to go onward. "...the reason I was in the raft was...I'm a mistake." he said quietly, Korra looked him oddly, "Hiccup, what do you mean?" she asked. Hiccup took a breath, "Vikings are supposed to be big, strong, and buff, I guess. And if they're too small...they cast them into the sea."

Korra's eyes widened, "Oh, Hiccup." she said, wrapping her arms around him. "I'm-I'm- I'm so, so sorry." she said, her voice beginning to crack. Hiccup wrapped his arms around Korra and pulled her close. Korra let tears roll down her face, Hiccup pulled away and wiped her tears away, "Look, I'll fill you in on what happened afterwards tomorrow. I just want to lay down with you right now. Is that alright?" he asked, Korra nodded. As Hiccup laid down, Korra snuggled ontop of him, Ok and this is the part where I fear for my life. Hiccup thought, Korra simply said, "After all the shit you've been through the past few days, you need some cuddling." Hiccup didn't put up a argument.

Hiccup woke to find Korra fast asleep beside him. At first, Hiccup nearly had a heart attack, but fortunately he remembered the events of the evening. Hiccup slid onto the side of the bed and reached out grab his leg when Korra pulled him back down, "Nooooooooooooooo. I don't want to get up, lets go back to sleep." she said. Hiccup smiled, "Two words, Lin BeiFong." Korra's eyes shot wide awake, "Okay, fine. You still don't have a key, and we don't exactly have many spare rooms so..." Hiccup leaned down and kissed her, "I get the message. Now I need to get my leg on and change."

Hiccup and Korra had called all their friends to tell them the news. Right now Hiccup was trying to find the guts to tell everyone what had happened. Looking himself over in the mirror, he saw that the past few days where hard on him. His hair was a mess, he had bags under his eyes, and like Korra said, he needed a little shave.

I go looking for my home, my family, and I find out that they didn't only get rid of me, but they...they get rid of anyone that they deem weak. Hiccup thought. As he rolled these thoughts over in his head, the door creaked open to show Korra, "Everyone's waiting for you, when your ready." she said, Hiccup nodded. Korra stepped behind him and looked at him in the mirror, "If you want, I could-" "No. I need to do this." Hiccup said, running a hand down his face. "Look, none of us think your a...mistake, we think of you like a inspiration, for sprits sake you found a way to walk without a leg! You never gave up against Amon, and you stood by your friends." she listed.

Hiccup looked back at her, "And if you can't see that, than your one of the dumbest geniuses I know." Hiccup smiled, "You know that's a paradox right?" Korra rolled her eyes, "Not the point. The point is, your way better than they ever thought you'd become." she said, pecking him on the cheek. As she walked out she called out, "One last thing, I'm pretty sure your much sexier than any oh them are." Hiccup blushed beat red.

Hiccup looked at the mirror, then at the door. He takes a breath, opens the door, and walks to his friends. His family.

On the far side of the world, Gobber the belch was looking at his oldest friend with a heavy heart. "Are you absolutely sure Gobber?" Stoick asked. "For the hundredth time Stoick, YES. It was...him." Gobber said. Stoick was in udder shock, "And...he tamed one of the devils? How?" the chief asked, Gobber shook his head, "I don't know Stoick, but...I think we should look for him." the blacksmith said. The chief looked at the fireplace of his home, "Yes...yes we need to. I have so much to say...so many things to-" "Now hold on, I saw what the lad could do, he nearly made the island sink! Maybe you and me should go. Alone." Stoick considered this for a moment, it seemed the best course of action, if he showed up with a fleet, who knows what he'd do.

"Gobber, what did the kids handle...all of it?" the blacksmith took a sip from his mug, "Well, Fishlegs has been trying to wrap that brain of his around this whole 'bending' thing. The twins keep arguing who'd could 'ave taken the lad on. Snotlout's been worried about his chieftainship. And Astrid's...she seems to feel...bad for the lad. It's start'n to scare me." he said. Stoick nodded, "Maybe of we bring 'em, Hiccup won't attack first. But we have no idea where he is. It could take years to find him!" the chief exclaimed in fear.

Gobber shook his head, "Not exactly, he left a bag on the island, 'as a map of the world, including where he's from." he said, pulling the scroll from his vest. Stoick took it and quickly went over it, "My gods." he said, looking over the scale of the map. Gobber nodded, "Aye, luckily, we know he's somewhere called, Republic City. So...are we going?" Stoick looked at his oldest friend, "Damn right we are." the old blacksmith smiled and stood, "Well then, I'll get the recruits and go pack me undies." Stoick face palmed, "Didnt need to know that."

Hiccup knew this was a bad idea. Right now, Lin looked like she was ready to kill the nearest thing. Crap crap crap crap crap crap crap crrrraaaapppp! Hiccup thought as he finished telling the story. "You entered the Avatar State?!" Tenzin exclaimed, Lin gave him a look that would kill anyone, "Forget about that! My son was almost killed my them! As a baby!" she exclaimed.

Hiccup incredibly gently put a hand on her shoulder, "Mom, you need to relax. They aren't here, and if they where they wouldn't be for long." Hiccup said. Lin looked at her son, and started to take a few deep breaths. "Alright, I'm calm. Still want to kill them, but calm." Hiccup smiled, "Good, I really don't want you trashing the island...again." Bolin raised a eye, "Again? Like more than one time?" he asked. Lin groaned, "It was just once. And it was Tenzin's fault."

The airbending master rubbed the back of his head, "I'll admit, it happened because of my doing, but it wasn't all my fault, was it?" Pema gave her husband a look, "Yes, yes it was." she said, earning a smirk from Lin. "Back to topic, what are we gonna do? You said your bag was left behind, what if they come here?" Mako asked, "If it happens I'll handle it." Hiccup said, a hint of venom laced in his words. Asami put a hand on Mako's shoulder, "Well whose to say they'll even come near here? Even with the map." Korra nodded, "Like Hiccup says, we'll burn that bridge when we come to it."

Hiccup unclips the harness from Toothless, throwing the saddle into its usual spot, he gives his best friend a scratch behind the ears. "What do you think, of all this?" he asked the reptile. "He thinks the same thing as the the rest of us." Hiccup turned to see Lin in the doorway, "How are you holding up?" she asked.

Hiccup shrugged, "As bout as good as anyone I guess." he replied. Lin took a seat on a bench, "You can always talk to me about it you know. " Hiccup took a seat beside her, "It's just...I just..." Lin rubbed his shoulder. "It's okay, let it out." she said quietly, "I...I just...sprits, just...DAMNIT!" he yelled, clutching his head. Lin gently wrapped her arms around him. Hiccup let the tears drain from his eyes, he'd kept the feelings in for the past few days, he felt anger, fear, sadness, hate. But he also felt a small sense of happiness, he was surrounded by loved ones, and that was what he needed.

Hiccup trudged to Korra's room. After his moment with Lin, he was exhausted. As he opened the door, he quickly learned that Korra was waiting for him. Before he could get a word out, she planted her lips squarely on his. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she led him back into the bedroom. Hiccup returned the affection and threw his arms around her waist. "I love you." she said breaking the kiss, "You too." he replied, pulling her back in.

As they laid down on the bed, they continued their kiss, until they where interrupted by a knock, it was Lin, "Hiccup?" Hiccup slowly broke away, "Yea?" he asked, almost feeling his mother's evil smile, "I'm just across the hall if you need me." Korra let out a sigh of relief, "And tell your girlfriend if I feel anything that's beyond kissing, I'll collapse that room ontop of you two." Hiccup and Korra blushed deep red, "Will do!" Hiccup managed to squeak out.

Korra rolled onto the bed, "That was embarrassing beyond all belief." Hiccup laid beside her and nodded, "I know. What if it was Tenzin!?" Korra groaned, "We would never be allowed on the island AGAIN." she said. Hiccup agreed, after removing his prosthetic, he pulled the covers over them. "I still love you." she whispered, Hiccup smirked, "I know." he replied. As the two drifted off to sleep, Hiccup smiled, the day started out bad, horrible even. But after he told his friends, confided to his mother, and Korra told him she loved him, he knew that from then on out, he would never be alone, he wouldn't be abandoned, he would always have his friends, his family, and the people he loved would always be by his side.

He was where he was loved.

He was where he wanted to be.

He was Home.

AN: Okay that one was a cute little coming home story. I'm still mad from the tv show, but a little GTA V can always fix that. So now Stoick knows his son is alive, how will this play out. The only reason I haven't mentioned his mother is because in the new movie, there's this woman that just might be his mom. Now this could just be rumor but I don't want to leave anything to chance. Also Hiccup and Korra are more...physical in this. It just bugs me that after SIX MONTHS Mako and her just hold hands and hug. I'm pretty sure that in a six month dating period you become very close to your girlfriend. Plus the time in season one so they're close. If you guys want me to back off the physical stuff just say so. Anyway favorite, fallow, and review as always. Thanks!
