BERK

Out at sea the torches burn in their braziers as Berk slumbers all it's people thinking all is right with the world, and none of them expecting a Bewilderbeast to come and destroy one of the monolithic Viking statues that was guarding the harbor, and it's call being let out to all the dragons.

Up in Gothi's house the recently sleeping Tiny Ones were suddenly wide away and together flew off to follow the King's wishes and join him.

Confused Gothi wakes up too, wondering what her dragons were up to now at this time of night, and shuffled onto the deck of her home to see gasping at what she saw.

In another part of the village, a Rock Eater was enjoying getting his belly rubbed by his Rider as they sat by the fire.

"Ah that's a good boy," Horak said laughing seeing his dragon enjoyed it, but stopped when he began acting very strange.

'Come to me my dragons...' was what was heard by the Rock Eater as he began flapping his wings and head for the door bashing into a few things 'Come to your new Alpha...'

"Hey watch the furniture," Horak said following his dragon out when he didn't stop "Where are you going?" he asked cut off by shock at what he was seeing.

All over Berk Vikings were following their dragons outside trying to get them to stop flying away and come back, only putting a stop to it when they saw what was attracting them.

A huge dragon, twice - maybe thrice the size as the Red Death was, was at the end of the island all the dragons plus how many more not from here circling it's head like a crown.

Next to the white dragon's head was a well known Night Fury, but the person riding it was not Hiccup, it wasn't even any of the other kids or Stoick or Gobber.

The man then called out to them "Your Chief... Is dead!"

"Stoick?" people were saying in hushed voices wondering what could of happened and who this man was.

"No one..." the man said lifting his bull-hook "Can protect you know!" he said pointing it at them signaling the white dragon to fire. But what surprised everyone was that it didn't shoot fire... It shot ice.


A bit away from Berk, Hiccup and his friends were just coming up to it gasping at what they saw.

All of Berk was covered in ice, and all the dragons were flying around the Dark Bewilderbeast's head a very proud looking Drago flying next to it on top of Toothless.

"No..." Hiccup said blinking trying to block out the call as well.

"He took all the dragons," Fishlegs said sounding scared.

"Distract the Alpha," Hiccup said looking to his friends "Try and keep his attention off of Toothless."

"Er... How?" Tuffnut asked asking the question everyone was thinking.

"Are you forgetting who you're riding with?" Eret said acting all proud now he's got the dragon he was riding under control. "There isn't a dragon alive that I can't wrangle." he said patting the dragon, giving it the wrong idea and making him shoot of to the ground. "EXCEPT FOR THIS ONE!" he called.

"Amateur..." Snotlout said scoffing as he, Fishlegs, Gobber, and the Twins flew off after him.

Astrid and Valka staying in the air to speak to Hiccup a bit longer.

"You sure you know what you're doing?" Astrid asked blocking the way to the Bewilderbeast.

"Sure... That's a bit of a strong word..." Hiccup said looking nervous while rubbing his ears trying to make the ringing stop. "But I know what I have to do to get Toothless back. And I'm going to do it."

"But what if something... goes wrong?" she asked looking scared. "What if your dragon side comes out and everyone sees it?"

"They were going to have to find out at some point," Hiccup said smiling "And that's a risk I'm going to take for Toothless."

"Hiccup wait," Valka said before he speed off. Digging in her pockets she pulled out a couple of ear plugs and gave them to her son. "Might not help all that much, but hopefully it's better than nothing."

"Thanks mum," he said putting them in and zooming off.

The sun was just rising and on the ground the behind a building a few Vikings saw a group of dragons coming closer.

"Hey look," one said pointing "It's Hiccup!"

The Vikings cheer at seeing their heir was alright.

Drago, on the other hand was surprised to see them thinking for sure he had got every dragon from the Dragon Riders nest "What?" he asked.

[][][][]

'You Scuttlers shall listen to be...' the King said huffing at the sight of the babies.

'Why?' the one Hiccup was ridding asked as Hiccup flew him up to the King's eyes and slowly made it over to Toothless.

'Because I am...' He was cut off as his focus was now on the sheep that was flying in front of it.

o0o[][][][]o0o

On the ground the Riders were by Snotlout's Sheep-apult launching all the sheep they could find at the dragon.

"Keep them coming..." Ruffnut said loading and launching the next one as Eret caught the last one.

"Black sheep baby!" Snotlout called throwing it to her.

o0o[][][][]o0o

'Impudent little...' the King said about to fire at the brats when a noise of a horn distracted him and make him turn to see no one there.

Turning back to the brats he was about to blast them when the sheep bounced off his face and landed on his spines making him go cross eyed.

"Ten Points..." one of them called laughing.

'You shall pay for...' the King said about to fire again when once again, the horn was blown.

Keeping it's eyes locked onto the horn, the King saw one of the brats hiding behind it. Taking a deep breath, he blasted at the horn coating it in shards of ice.

'That will teach you you ungrateful little welp!' he cried.

"I'm ok!" Fishlegs' called out.

"You certainly hard to get rid of I'll give you that," Drago said to the boy before him.

But Hiccup couldn't hear anything, he was just looking at Toothless and reaching out to him "Toothless," he said "It's me, I'm right here bud. Come back to me." he said quietly his eyes flashing for a bit as he kept eye contact while feeling the Alpha re-positioning himself under him.

"It wasn't your fault bud," Hiccup continued seeing him put up a fight, trying to break away from the Dark Alpha. "They made you do it. You'd never hurt him... and you'll never hurt me..."

Drago stared at the boy as he was getting closer to his Night Fury, but the dumb dragon wouldn't fire "How are you doing that?"

"Please... you're my best friend bud," Hiccup said gently placing his hand on Toothless' snout. "My best friend." 'Noche please come back...' he thought praying to Draco, Thor, Odin, to everyone that this would work.

After closing his eyes one last time, Noche slowly opened them to reveal big pupil sized eyes and a gummy smile.

'Hiccup...' he asked quietly.

"That a boy! That's it! I'm right here!" Hiccup cried screaming it to the heavens that Toothless was back.

"ENOUGH!" Drago cried hitting Toothless with the bull-hook trying to regain control over the stupid beast.

'Oh no you didn't...' Noche said angrily as he gripped the hook with his teeth and flipped over, making the man fall off and break his fall on one of the Bewilderbeast's tucks.

"YEAH!" Hiccup cried punching the sky.

But with out a rider, Noche quickly began to drop out of the sky crying out to Hiccup.

'I'm coming Toothless!' Hiccup cried out because of his excitement saying it in Dragonese for the whole village to hear, making them confused, as he leapt off the baby Scuttler and dove after him. 'Hang on... Hang on...'

Tucking in his arms to make him more aerodynamic Hiccup tried to close the gap before they hit the sea.

'Almost there buddy,' he said putting confidence into Noche 'Almost there...'

Keeping his eyes on Hiccup, Noche span over so that his back and the saddle were facing the boy which Hiccup reached out for and got into the saddle, locking himself in, and kicking the tail open, just as they were about to hit the water, skyrocketing bast Drago as he made his way up to the Dark Alpha's head.

Taken a risk, Hiccup unplugged his ears so he can hear what his brother had to say.

'Oh bud I'm so sorry for being mad at you like that...' he said hugging Toothless as they were leveling out 'I know you'd never do anything like that in the whole world. I'm sorry...'

'It's ok Hiccup,' Toothless says looking behind him cooing happily 'If I had been stronger... But we'll get to this later for now let's her the man who thinks he can use the Great Draco's name and children to destroy the world.'

[][][][]

Nodding Hiccup replugged his ears and looked behind him seeing Drago now on top of the Alpha's head screaming at it.

"We need to keep those two apart," he said looking around for something to help Toothless seeing it as one of the Dragon Race flags that hat been torn to pieces.

Guiding Toothless in that direction, he reached out and grabbed it.

The Bewilderbeast blast's at them only just missing as they circle around the back of the mountain of ice that it made earlier.

"We have to shut him out Toothless," Hiccup said looking down to his brother who looked nervous. "Do you trust me bud?" he asked getting a small nod in reply, letting Hiccup tie the blindfold on. 'We can do this... You and me.. As one.' Hiccup said pressing a hand on top of Toothless' head as he also readjusted the tail waiting for Toothless to equal it. "That's it... Now let's try this one more time..." Hiccup cried as they came back around and went straight towards the Bewilderbeast.

o0o

They peel out from behind they mountain and zoom over the people of Berk.

"TAKE HIM DOWN BABE!" Toothless heard Astrid cry out as well as all the cheers that were helping to block out the King's command.

Still on her baby dragon Valka watched proudly as Hiccup and Toothless set out to free the dragons "Go get them..." she said smiling.

"TAKE CONTROL OF IT!" Drago's voice cried out making him nervous, doubling when he heard the call of the King.

'Shut it out Toothless...' Hiccup told him as he flattened the frills and ears down.

"STOP THEM!"

'NOW!' Hiccup cried out as he grabbed the blindfold, locked the tail and jumped off his brother's back, both of them only just missing the blasts of ice that were shot at them as Toothless pulled up arcing over Drago's head.

o0o

Drago was laughing with victory that the Dragon Master turned like that, until he got a closer look and saw that the saddle was empty.

Quickly he spins around and saw the boy coming right at him flying all by himself, with something in his hand.

As soon as he was close enough, Hiccup pressed the button letting out the Zippleback gas and flew past the man.

After missing getting hit by the bull-hook and as soon as he was a safe distance away, he clicked the ignition, lighting the gas and causing an explosion making Drago stumble off the Bewilderbeast's head getting caught on the dragon's spines for a few seconds at a time before landing on the ground.

Smiling that that at least was taken care of, Hiccup turned forward again to see the Bewilderbeast's tail coming up to hit him, reminding him of the Red Death.

"Not again..." he said praying the outcome will not be the same as last time. "TOOTHLESS! IT'S NOW OR NEVER!"

Looking around to see what his brother meant Toothless gasped at once releasing his fins and increasing speed to get to him, just making it arcing skywards just as Hiccup was about to hit the tail.

"Come on bud we can do this..." Hiccup said shocked at how smoother, and faster, Toothless was flying with the fins out.

Together they fly along the length of the tail both minds trying to block out the memories of what happened last time they did this. But last time, was not this time.

'Hold on...' Toothless said though he did not know why since Hiccup's still wearing the ear plugs.

Together they shot into the sky narrowly missing the tip as they shoot past the tail.

'YEAH! WE DID IT!' Hiccup cried out excited scratching Toothless as they both grinned widely.

Quickly they both came back down and landed in front of Drago.

Getting out his flame-sword, Hiccup threw it and it landed just in front of the man's hook, scorching his hand.

"Keep him there Toothless," he called to his friend, as he put his wings away and took out the ear plugs "It's all over now."

"Or is it?" the man said smirking looking at something behind the boy.

Hearing it behind him, sensing it was there, Hiccup turned and saw the Alpha about to blast him with an attack.

'HICCUP!' Toothless cried out and covered him with his wings protecting him as the ice coated them.
