"I can't believe this." Astrid snarled as a few trappers pushed her and the other riders towards a plank, where Eret eyed it cautiously.
"Could this day get any worse?" Snotlout said hopelessly as Tuffnut looked up in thought.
"Well, let me see, we're gonna jump in freezing cold water, then die from drowning." He said flatly.
"Looks refreshing." Eret muttered before looking up at Astrid, "Please, ladies first." He said smugly as Astrid attempted to attack him, but was held back by some guards.
"You are a steaming heap of dragon-"
"Duck." He said before kicking over Astrid and knocking the guards holding her over, making one of their spears fly right into his tied hands and he cut the ropes before grinning.
"Warn the others!" One of the men exclaimed.
"Get 'em you son of an Eret." Ruffnut said seductively as Eret confidently grabbed a blow gun and shot the guards, making them all pass out.
"Okay I love you again." Ruffnut said happily as she ran over to Eret and Snotlout stared at her sadly.
"That's pathetic, you can still jump." Tuffnut said as Eret walked past them and cut Astrid's ropes and started to walk towards the traps.
"So are we going to save your dragons and get to the nest or not?" He asked as Astrid rolled her eyes.
"Hm." She said before following him.
"Check every trap. They're here somewhere." Eret advised as they all run up to the different traps.
Astrid ducked under a tarp and starts cracking the gear to one of the traps laboriously before peeking inside.
"Meatlug?" She asked hopefully as the Gronkle looked up happily.
"Astrid?" She asked, relief in her voice as Astrid gestured for Fishlegs to come over.
"Is anyone coming?" Eret asked Ruffnut as he cranked a different trap, but she was too focused on his bulging muscles to notice anything else.
"I dunno, you just keep doing what your doing." She muttered as Eret looked around quickly to make sure the coast was clear before climbing inside. He gasped as Stormfly squawked and perked up a bit.
"E-Eret?" She asked as Eret put out a cautious hand.
"Thank you for saving my life." He said as Stormfly moved her hand into his open palm as he gasped before grinning a bit.
"Now just let me return the favor."
Hiccup happily walked around the cavern where Valka lived, Stoick cutting up some fish while Valka scoured it.
"Mom, you wouldn't even recognize it, where we used to build weapons, we now make saddles, wing slings, we even fix dragon teeth!" He exclaimed before rubbing Toothless's snout.
"And it's all thanks to this guy!" He declared happily as Toothless rolled his eyes and nudged him forwards.
"Pfft, prophecy remember? Even though I was the one to help you bring peace." Toothless said with a grin as Hiccup pushed his head away playfully as Toothless tried to lick his face.
"Aye, our son's changed Berk for the better. I think we did well with this one Val." Stoick said as he touched Valka's shoulders happily, unfortunately it startled her, making her drop the tray and Toothless instantly dove for the fish, but Cloudjumper beat him to it.
"Not even a piece?" He asked sadly as Cloudjumper sighed.
"Okay, fine." He said before regurgitating the fish, which Toothless happily slurped up and Hiccup laughed a bit and Toothless grinned triumphantly.
"I-I'm sorry, I'm a bit out of practice." She apologized quietly as Stoick grabbed her hand and held it gently.
"Well, ya know, I didn't marry you for your cooking." He said with a small chuckle as Hiccup walked over and sat next to Gobber.
"I hope not, her meatballs could kill more beasts than a battle axe. I still got a few knockin' around in here." Gobber chuckled as Hiccup smiled and stood back up.
"Oh, when you move back in, with these thousands of dragons! Oh Drago won't even stand a chance! The Red Death's nest and the Snowy Bewilderbeast's?! Anyone would be crazy to attack us! Everything will be okay." Hiccup concluded as Valka walked away, slightly uncomfortable to go get some water from a melting icicle.
"Slow down Hiccup, it's a lot to take in." Stoick said as Hiccup got the memo and nodded.
"Oh, gotcha." He said before walking back over to Gobber and Grump, where Toothless was sitting.
"She seems kinda, unnerved." He commented quietly as they both noticed Stoick looking at her before looking back down in thought, beffort looking back up at her again and taking a deep breath as he started to whistle a pleasant melody and Valka visibly tensed and even came close to dropping the jug of water.
"Oh, I love this one." Gobber commented as he started to wave his hand to the melody and Hiccup looked in confusion.
"Wait a minute, I know this song! Your mom used to always sing it under her breath when I lived here." Toothless whispered excitedly.
"Remember our song Val?" Stoick asked gently as he walked up behind Valka and set the container down for her.
S:I'll swim and sail on savage seas, with ne'er a fear of drowning. And gladly ride the waves of life. If you would marry me.
Stoick began as Hiccup gasped before grinning happily and Valka tensed up even more as Stoick caressed her cheek and her expression began to become filled with memories, that she regretted leaving behind. Her pupils were tiny slits at this point.
S: No scorching sun, nor freezing cold, will stop-
"Stop me on my jour..." Gobber trailed off as as Hiccup and Stoick both glared at him and Hiccup smacked him with his tail angrily, "...ney." He ended sheepishly.
S: If you will promise me your... Heart.
Stoick takes Valka's hand and puts it up to his heart, waiting for her to start singing.
"And love..." He started as Valka continued to look down sadly and he sighed before starting to turn around sadly.
V: And love me for eternity.
Valka sang as Stoick whipped around before sighing in relief.
V: My dearest one my darling dear, your mighty words astound me, but I've no need of mightily deeds when I feel your arms around me.
Valka walked to the center of the cavern and held out her arm and Stoick laughed before holding out his arm next to hers as well and they started to dance.
S: But I would bring you rings of gold, I'd even sing you poetry.
"Would you?" Valka asked playfully as she jumped over Stoick's leg and they took eachother's hands.
S: And I would keep you from all harm if you would stay beside me!
V: I have no use for rings of gold! I care not for your poetry! I only want your hand to hold!
Hiccup wore an almost impossibly wide grin as he watched his parents sing and dance, this was his dream. Ever since he was little, to have a whole family. Hey! And if he finally tracked down Dathomire and his island, then he would have a brother too!
S: I only want you near me!
"Hey, what's that?" Toothless asked as he sniffed around Gobber's wooden leg. Unfortunately Gobber had jumped up and started to dance along and kicked Toothless right in the jaw.
"Ow! Watch it!" He yelped before grumbling and walking away.
S&V: For the dancing and the dreaming!
Hiccup continued to grin happily and started to tap his foot to the rhythm, but apparently that wasn't cheerful enough for Gobber.
"Com on Hiccup!" He exclaimed before scooping Hiccup up and dancing around with him, making him yelp at first from the sudden jerking moment.
S: Through all my sorrows
V: And my lights
S&V: I'll keep your love inside me! I'll swim and sail on savage seas with ne'er a fear of drowning and gladly ride the waves off life I'd you wil marry me!
"-eeeeeeeeeee I'm still goingggggggg..." Gobber sang, holding the last note as Toothless rubbed his ears in pain and even Hiccup touched his ear in pain.
"Gobber." He whispered as Gobber finally stopped.
"I'm done." He said as Stoick and Valka laughed behind them, hugging eachother tightly.
"I thought for too long I'd have to die before we had that dance again." Stoick sighed as Valka laughed a bit.
"No need for drastic measures." She giggled as Stoick got onto one knee and held her hand.
"For you my dear, anything." He said as Valka gasped, tears forming in her eyes.
"Will you come home Val? Will you be my wife once again?" Stoick asked with an undertone of begging.
"Well..." She trailed off before Toothless walked towards them and nudged Valka into Stoick's arms.
Stoick stood back up and put an arm around Hiccup's shoulders, who had just recently walked up to them.
"We can be a family again. So what do you say?" He asked as Toothless looked up at her and rolled his eyes.
"Come on Valka, you know you want to." Toothless said as Valka giggled before looking back up at her husband and son.
"Y-Yes." She said excitedly, pupils as big as saucers and Gobber jumped up from behind them, startling Hiccup.
"Great! I'll do the cooking." He joked as they all laughed a bit.
"Thank Odin you didn't listen to me son, or else we never would've found eachother." Stoick thanked as he and Valka walked away and Hiccup smiled, before sensing something wasn't right.
"Do you feel that too?" Toothless asked as they looked out the entrance to see thousands of dragons flocking outside, and that when the two finally heard it.
"AIM FOR THE MOUNTAIN!"
"Watch out!" Hiccup yelped as a projectile hit one of the icy spikes of the nest, shaking the cavern as a few rocks shook lose from the ceiling and they all dove for cover.
"Drago." Toothless snarled before joining the other dragons in the fight.
"Toothless stop!" Hiccup yelled, but he was already gone.
"What's happening?" Stoick asked in concern as another projectile hit the nest and Valka raced outside to see Drago's entire army and armada, sitting at their doorstep.
