On the day Hiccup's child was born, me and Hiccup were flying over the same body of water where our first test flight was. He may have been older, and bigger, but so was I. I was now fully grown, and we were just gliding across the air. I sensed that something was wrong, and I turned around suddenly. Hiccup held on tightly, ''What is it buddy.''I flew as fast as I could back to the village. Hiccup still didn't know why I was acting weird., and to tell you the truth, I don't know either. We landed in the middle of the village, and I ran to where Astrid slept. Hiccup never got a chance to get off of my back, so he held on until I stopped moving. I sat down next to Astrid's bed, and Hiccup got off. She was still sleeping. Her abdomen was huge compared to the rest of her body. I whined and tried waking her up. Hiccup knew that I was trying to wake her up, so he shook her slightly. ''Astrid. Astrid, wake up.'' She opened her eyes and saw me first. ''Hey Toothless.'' she yawned. ''What are you doing here?'' she asked Hiccup. ''Toothless brought me here for some reason. I'm not sure why yet.'' I walked up to her and licked her. I knew that the feeling I had had something to do with Astrid. I whined again and very softly touched her belly with my nose. ''What do you mean Toothless?'' I left to go and get Starkad. She was standing in front of her nest. ''Toothless! Look My egg's hatching!'' I looked over at her blue egg. It was true. There was a small crack in the side. I knew that Starkad's egg was hatching, but I had another instinct telling me about Astrid. ''Can I borrow the egg again to show Astrid and Hiccup?'' I asked her. She would have been angry, but I knew that she loved Astrid, so she nodded. I picked it up carefully in my mouth, and brought it into the house that they were in. Starkad followed. I placed the egg on top of some pillows that were next to Hiccup's prosthetic leg. Astrid looked over to see what it was. ''Look Hiccup! Starkad's egg is hatching!'' she squealed. Both of them knelt down on the ground next to the egg. There was another crack, and then we could see a small blue wing come out of the egg. I knew that Starkad was proud. Then another wing came out on the other side of the egg, but this one was a different color. It was black. Nadders were never black, but I guess this one was. I gave the wings a closer look. They didn't look like Nadder wings. They looked like Night Fury wings. We could hear squeaks coming from inside the egg. Well, at least me and Starkad could. Starkad was coming up to comfort it, but I held her back, ''Let Astrid and Hiccup watch first. This isn't something they see every day.'' She nodded and watched with me. A horn came out of the egg. The little dragon was nosing their way out. ''Is it okay if I help Starkad?'' I asked her. ''You can'' I carefully clawed at the shell until I weakened it enough that the little dragon would be able to do it themselves. Then the whole egg cracked in two. I purred with Starkad, who came up to lick her hatchling. I never got a good look at it, so I couldn't tell if it was male or female. ''Is it a girl or boy?'' Astrid asked. Starkad flipped the hatchling onto its back. ''A female.'' she said. I turned back to Astrid, "Boy?" she asked. I snorted. ''Girl?'' she asked. I smiled at her, and she hugged Hiccup. I looked back at the hatchling. There was something different about this hatchling. Nadders only had two legs, and this one had four. Its head was more flat than a normal Nadder, and its tail had fins. It also had black spots on its tail and legs. ''That's strange. She has four legs instead of two.'' Hiccup huffed with confusion, but then he looked at me. I was the one confused now. He looked at me, then to the hatchling. Why was he…. No! There had to be another reason for the hatchling's weird appearance! Starkad looked at me ''It happened when my old mate left. We slept next to each other, and… you know what happened next. The hatchling is yours Toothless.'' My eyes widened. No! We were just friends, but the proof was right in front of me. Then Starkad nudged the hatchling to stand up and walk. Starkad nudged it towards Astrid, once it knew how to stand up. Astrid sat on the floor, and the little hatchling was worried about leaving her mother. The same way I was when I was a hatchling, but the hatchling was stumbling towards Astrid slowly. Astrid held out one of her arms out to the hatchling. It looked at Astrid with curiosity. Hesitantly, it sniffed her hand. Then it snuggled her hand. Astrid was so happy for Starkad. Hiccup held his hand out too, but the hatchling backed away and hissed. ''Just like her mother.'' Hiccup looked at Starkad. She snorted. Astrid gasped. ''What is it?'' Hiccup asked frighted. I stood next to Astrid, licking her face. Her body started to convulse in spasms. Hiccup went to the other side of the bed and held her hand. She kept yelling in pain. He looked up at me and said ''It's happening. Isn't it.'' I nodded at him and he told me to get the nurse. I ran to the nurse's house, and she knew that I was Hiccup's dragon, and she followed me. I led her to Astrid, and she went back to get her supplies. ''You and you, get out of here.'' She pointed to me and Starkad. I snorted, but I backed out to leave. ''Come on Starkad, let's go.'' The little hatchling squeaked as her mother nudged her to the exit. ''Let me pick her up.'' Starkad nodded and I carefully grabbed the hatchling with my mouth, teeth unsheathed. She wriggled and tried to get out, but my grip was too good. We made it back to the nest, and I placed her in the hay. She tried breathing fire at me, but she was too little to control it. I purred and licked her. ''I agree with Hiccup. She's just like you.'' Starkad purred and lied down next to our daughter. I left, leaving Starkad to sleep. I knew that I had three hatchlings now, but Starkad's didn't feel like mine. I sighed and slept outside of Hiccup's house.

-New Arrivals-

I was woken up by Hiccup. He patted my nose. ''Thanks buddy. If we hadn't stopped flying, I wouldn't have seen my kids being born.'' I smiled at him, and got up. ''Come on Toothless. Let's introduce you to my kids.'' I followed him inside quietly. Astrid was on the bed with two smaller humans in her hands. I came up and smelt them hesitantly. They smelt like Astrid, which meant they were both female. Hiccup and Astrid smiled. ''This is Ricket, but we haven't thought of any names for this one yet. Any ideas buddy.'' He pointed to the weaker one. I only had one. It was stormy outside, so I pointed to the sky. ''So what. There's a storm.'' Once he said storm, I smiled. ''Storm. That's what you want us to name her?'' I was remembering Stormy Wake. I purred and licked him. ''Okay buddy.'' We walked back inside to Astrid. ''Toothless thought of a name.'' Astrid looked up from the children. ''What?'' she asked. ''Storm.'' Astrid smiled. ''That's a beautiful name. Thank you Toothless.'' I purred and walked up to Astrid. She was watching the children with intrest, so I looked at them too. They were like miniature Hiccups. One looked like Hiccup more, while having Astrid's blue eyes, and the other was looked like Astrid only a little more. She still had Hiccup's scrawny body, and brown eyes, but had Astrid's face. Hiccup came up behind me and patted my nose again. ''Come on Toothless, Let's go fly.'' They left Astrid alone for awhile to fly. Once we were up in the air, Hiccup said ''Go wherever you want to go Toothless. I feel like a surprise.'' an important thought occurred to me. Maybe I could go to the Fury Clan. I could see my hatchlings. I flew to where I knew it was. After a couple of hours, I smelt something. Other Night Furies. I quietly landed in a small clearing. There was still enough daylight to see, but there was a thunderstorm above our heads. Hiccup got off and looked around. ''Where are we buddy?'' I walked along a small path to the camp. Then I smelt something familiar. ''Blackscale? Snowscale? Where are you?'' They came out from the bushes and stared at Hiccup with enough anger that I put myself in front of him. A flash of light went through the the field. Snowscale softened her gaze. ''Nightscale! I'd thought I'd never see you again!'' We licked each other and Blackscale was still staring at Hiccup. ''Blackscale. He's no threat to the camp. He's actually my friend.'' Blackscale looked back at me. ''You abandoned us! Left us for death! And now we see you again with-with, this human companion!'' He was hostile. Another flash. ''Darkfire said you were leader now, but you don't have to be hostile'' His gaze changed to a calmer look. ''How did you know?'' he asked ''Darkfire came to me with Snowfire in a dream. They said that I'd see you again, and Darkfire said you were leader now.'' Blackscale ignored Hiccup and licked me. ''I met the human not long after I left. His name is Hiccup. I want you two to meet him'' They followed me to Hiccup. His prosthetic leg prevented him from running, so he stayed where he was. ''It'll be hard to show him that you two are my hatchlings, but we can try. Also, since he can't understand me, I can't tell him my real name. That's why he calls me Toothless.'' They nodded and I walked up to him. I licked him and he calmed down. He followed me to Snowscale and Blackscale. I got a large stick and drew two lines to form a triangle. The point was where I was standing. Hiccup looked at the lines and looked at the two younger dragons. He was seeing my eyes on Blackscale, my body on Snowscale. Hiccup asked quietly ''Are these your kids?'' I smiled at him and licked him. He walked up to Blackscale first. He hissed at him. ''Blackscale. It's okay. He won't hurt you.'' He calmed down a little, and he allowed Hiccup to touch him. Then he backed away. He was like me when I met Hiccup for the first time. Then he turned to Snowscale. She snuggled up to him like she had known him as long as I have. Hiccup fell backwards onto the ground, ''Okay, okay. Can I get up!'' Snowscale let him get back up. ''They're definitely your kids Toothless, but where's their mother?'' I looked at the ground and started to fill myself with the memories. ''I see.'' he huffed. ''We've got to get back to Astrid. She'll be wondering where we are anyways.'' He hopped onto my back and opened my tail up, but I didn't fly away yet. ''Come with us. Please. The humans are our friends in our village.'' Blackscale snorted. ''I'll never go to a human village, ever!'' And he flew away. Snowscale looked at me ''I can't go back. I'm sorry, but this is my home. However… I-I laid an egg yesterday, and, I can't care for it, I was looking for someone to watch it for me. Would you watch it?'' I nodded and Snowscale flew away. "Come on Toothless. We have to get back.'' I didn't budge. We sat there only for a couple of minutes until Snowscale came back with something in her mouth. She placed it on the ground in front of me for me to take. She looked sadly into my eyes and then left. Hiccup had not seen her place the egg on the ground, but I picked the egg up and then flew off the ground. We flew back to the village and Hiccup went to Astrid immediately. I followed him inside. Astrid was still holding Storm, as she listened to Hiccup. He was telling her where we were, and then he told her that I had two kids out there. She looked at me and I walked over. She patted me on the head and then I remembered the egg in my mouth. They went back to talking to each other. I whimpered and both of them looked back at me. I got a blanket and placed the egg on it. Hiccup was as surprised as Astrid was. ''Where did he get that?'' she asked Hiccup. ''He must have gotten it from his daughter.'' I smiled at him. He was right, and then I wrapped my tail around the small, black egg. ''Toothless, you can't keep the egg in here. You could bring it to Starkad though.'' He was right. Starkad would know what to do, so I grabbed the egg, and walked out of the house. I went to Starkad and showed her the egg, and I told her where I got it. She nodded and said to always keep it warm. So I blasted the ground where I was going to place it, and then put it on the embers. I slept next to the egg, knowing I'd see it again tomorrow, unlike the last time I slept next to one of my eggs. Snowfire must be watching me right now.

Starkad woke me up to watch our new hatchling. She was getting some food. The hatchling watched its mother fly off, and it tried to follow, but I stopped it before it could get hurt. I brought it back inside the nest and licked it. I knew that Starkad hadn't thought of a name yet, but I thought of one. Maybe Skyrik would be good. Starkad came back and I asked her ''Would Skyrik be a good name?'' She looked at me then the hatchling. ''Yes, it would, but the humans will name it what they want to.'' I shrugged my shoulders. ''It was a good thought.'' I got up and found Hiccup. I brought him to the hatchling to name. He knew why I'd brought him here. ''Alright buddy, she'll get a name, but Astrid should because Starkad is her dragon.'' Hiccup went to get Astrid. She came out of the house with him. She had left the twins inside sleeping. ''Toothless wants the hatchling to have a name.'' Astrid went to the little dragon and stroked it with her hand. ''Maybe Skylar would be a good name.'' Starkad licked her and purred. ''Skylar it is then'' Hiccup said. Hiccup hugged Astrid and brought her back to the house. I slept next to my egg again that night, hoping that nothing would separate me from it.

-Meeting-

About 7 months later, Astrid brought Storm and Ricket outside to meet Skylar. They were still crawling when they met Skylar. Skylar started talking about 2 weeks ago, and we told her that the humans can't understand our language, so talking won't do anything. Storm was walking up to Skylar. Skylar backed up into Starkad and nudged her forward. Skylar hissed at Storm, and Storm backed away. Ricket walked up next, and Skylar was sniffing her all over. Ricket started to laugh while Skylar nuzzled her. Storm was feeling left out and then she saw me. Her eyes were full of curiosity. Her blue eyes were looking at me just like Hiccup did when he was watching me in the trench. She looked into my eyes. She crawled over and touched my nose with her hand. It felt just like Hiccup's touch. I knew that Storm needed a companion through her life, but I was already with Hiccup. Then I had an idea. I stood up and allowed her to touch my egg. When she saw the egg, she crawled to it and started to hug it. I saw an early connection between the two. The same thing with Ricket and Skylar, except Storm was showing fierce love instead of just having fun. From that moment on, I knew that Storm and my hatchling would be like me and Hiccup. Friends Forever.

About 5 years later, the egg still hadn't hatched. Night Fury eggs take the longest to hatch than any other dragon egg. Storm was always in the dragon nest, even at night. She barely went back into the human houses. Hiccup knew that I wouldn't hurt her, and that I'd protect her from anything. I watched Storm sleep with the egg. Then I heard a faint chirp. I looked everywhere, but never found the source, so I went back to watching Storm. Soon after, I heard it again. This time I found out where it was coming from. I looked down onto the egg. It started to move. I blew into Storm's blonde hair. She looked up at me. ''Hi Toofless.'' she said. I nudged her with my head. She got up and saw that the egg was moving. She instantly got in front of it and watched intenty. A crack appeared and then a small hole. Soon, I could see the white head through the shell. ''Is that the baby dragon?'' She asked. I nodded and continued to watch the egg. A paw came out and then a tail. I used my claws to help the baby Night Fury out of the egg. Storm watched me and the egg. Then a small white head came out of the egg. It had dark, amber eyes. Storm stuck here hand out to touch it, but the head tried to bite her hand. I knew that the hatchling was hungry. I regurgitated some meat for the hatchling to eat. Once it saw the food, it wriggled to get out of the shell. Then it finally got out when it used its claws. It walked wobbly on its legs, towards the food. It started to eat it and I noticed that it was a female. It had a white body and black webbing on the bottom of its wings and tail flaps. Storm walked over to her and the baby dragon knocked her over. Storm started to laugh as the hatchling was playing with her. I laughed and looked over at Starkad. She was sleeping with Skylar. ''Starkad. Wake up!'' Starkad yawned and looked around to see why I woke her up. Once she saw the hatchling, she woke Skylar up to meet her. Skylar wasn't fully grown yet, in fact, she wasn't much bigger than she was. Maybe a few inches, but dragons took awhile to grow up. She was a little annoyed that she was woken up, but since she knew her mother wouldn't stop, she got up. Then she saw the new hatchling, and ran up to it. My hatchling was still playing with Storm, but once it saw Skylar, it shrunk back behind her. ''Don't be afraid of Skylar. She won't hurt you.'' Storm said. She slowly came out from behind Storm, and sniffed the air. Skylar came up smell her too, but the hatchling was backing away. ''Skylar. Leave her alone. She's scared of you.'' I commanded her. Skylar went back to Starkad and the hatchling continued to play with Storm. ''Watch them will you'' I told Starkad. I got up to find Hiccup. I found him with Astrid in the trench. They were sleeping next to each other under a tree. I walked up to them and licked Hiccup right in the face. ''Oh! What the!'' he yelled. Then he opened his eyes and saw me. ''Oh. It's just you. What is it?'' I kept nudging him. ''Okay I'll get up. Astrid. Wake up" he said to Astrid. She was yawning when she opened her eyes and saw me. ''Toothless want's to show us something.'' Hiccup and Astrid both got up. I motioned them to get on the saddle. ''Okay buddy.'' Hiccup said. Astrid got on after. We flew quietly and slowly back to the camp. I landed softly and kept moving so they couldn't get off yet. I walked to the nest area and then I let them get off. ''Why are we here?'' Astrid said. Then I heard Storm's laughing again. I saw the little hatchling on top of her. It squeaked out a small cry of triumph. Once it smelt Hiccup and Astrid, it hid behind a pile of hay. ''What did you want to show us Toothless?'' Hiccup asked. I found the eggshell remnants and pushed them to him. ''Your egg hatched!'' No duh Sherlock. I looked around the hay pile for the hatchling. I found her and she squeaked when I picked her up in my mouth. I put her in front of Hiccup and it instantly backed away. ''You're a little shy. Aren't you.'' Astrid bent down onto her knees. The hatchling was a little less afraid. Hiccup bent down too. ''We won't hurt you.'' he said. He stuck his hand out and the hatchling sniffed it. It was still afraid of them, but it wasn't as shy. ''What should we name it?'' Hiccup said. ''Let's name it tomorrow. Right now I'm a little tired.'' said Astrid. With that, Astrid and Hiccup went to bed and I was left with Storm and my new hatchling.
