AN: Ok somehow... I managed to miss putting this chapter up and although the story seemed to be alright without it (considering no on mentioned anything...) I'm putting it in
Hope you like it - it doesn't change the story at all, just puts more word into it
Hiccup was going further and further into the storm. But it seemed the closer he got to the eye, the less the winds and snow wanted him to be there, and it was getting really hard to stay up on his own two feet now.
Sometimes being a talking fishbone had it's disadvantages.
Toothless was trying his best to stay next to Hiccup and not lat him be blown over or away, but he knew the safest place for them at the moment, was the last place Hiccup wanted to be - Away from here.
"JACK!" Hiccup cried again having not made much movement for the last ten minutes. "JACK PLEASE, I JUST WANT TO TALK TO YOU!"

In the eye of the storm Jokul Frosti was about to release all his anger in one of his spiral attacks when he heard someone calling to him by he weaker-self's name.
Calming down a bit, he looked over his shoulder and saw a couple of shadows trying to get closer to him. Guessing he had better let them in to see what they wanted, Jokul told the wind to stop blowing so hard and let them pass.
o0o
Feeling the winds lighting up Hiccup looked up to see what was going on, and saw that a path was being made to the eye of the storm, the winds now a bit lighter, now pushing into their backs telling them to move forward.
Taking the chance, Hiccup hopped back up on top of Toothless and the dragon rushed forwards following the wind's direction until they got to the center where they saw Jokul Frosti looking as mad as ever, his staff now an iced scythe, his hair nearly fully black, and a faint dark midnight blue aura all around him.
(*)(*)(*)
Back at the pole, the big large wooden doors were being opened and everyone, minus the Triplets, Rapunzel and Eugene, filed out along with a couple of Yeti's looking towards the direction of the storm.
"Why does Hiccup always have to to stupid things like this Chief?" Astrid asked not meaning to insult the mans son, just an act of curiosity.
"Because he takes after his mother, and doesn't listen to anything that involve 'Stay' 'Don't do' or 'Not safe'..." Stoick said gripping his axe tightly looking to everyone else.
"Friends, I thank you for the help, but this is my son," he said strongly "I need to go get him, you lot just stay safe inside the workshop."
"Yeah like that's going to happen," Mother Nature said, her arm still in a sling, as she walked passed him towards the storm.
"Whoa..." the teens said shocked that she was like that to Stoick and walking, just walking, straight up to the storm.
"Isn't she scared or something?" Fishlegs asked looking to the Guardians confused, thinking they will have more of an answer.
"Em's... Not really one who gets scared all that much, kid," Bunny said trying to explain, and yet not explain that he knew the answer.
"ARE YOU LOT COMING OR NOT!" Mother Nature's voice called back to them, getting the rescue squad to get moving and follow her to the storm.
(*)(*)(*)
In the eyes of the storm Hiccup was beginning to think this was a bad idea.
"So..." he began "How you doing Ja... Jokul..." he corrected himself quickly seeing the muddy white haired boy before him tighten his hold on his weapon.
"Who want's to know," Jokul asked harshly. "In fact..." he said lowering his weapon a bit and began stepping towards the small Viking "Why are you out here in the first place Useless..." he asked getting right up to the boy "Don't you know it's dangerous out here? Especially with an upset Sprint of Winter on the loose?"
"Yes... I did know that actually," Hiccup said leaning back a bit, trying to hold Toothless from attacking the boy. "But I was just coming to see if you know... You were alright, or if you were just making up this h...uge storm for fun." Hiccup said giving his 'Please believe me' smile.
"Oh yeah... Yeah I'm fine," Jokul said backing off a bit the turning to walk back to the mid center again looking around "Yeah you know me, just letting off some steam and having some fun by making freakish large storms that hols dreadful winds," he began counting his fingers "Razor sharp ice flying around, colds so cold just thinking about it will give you frostbite and or hypothermia, and almost if not certainly killing everything insight."
"Well just as long as you're happy," Hiccup said trying not to sound too sarcastic, rubbing his arms thinking the eye was getting smaller. "So... How's Merida?" he asked trying to get Jokul to think of good things rather then bad, thinking friends might do that.
"She's fine," Jokul said right away the storm calming a bit, telling Hiccup he was getting somewhere.
"HICCUP!" someone yelled getting both boys, and dragon to look up and into the wall of storms towards the direction the voice came from.
"You-lowlife-back-stabbing-yellow-bellied-red-herring" Jokul Frosti said glaring at Hiccup, the storm enhancing again, the aura glowing around him getting even darker, the temperature dropping even further.
"No! Jack wait you don't understand..." Hiccup tried holding his arms up to his face to keep the sharp sharp ice crystals that were flying around out of his eyes.
"Oh... No I think I understand perfectly!" Jokul said narrowing his eyes to the young Viking atop the black dragon. "You never wanted to see if I was alright did you? No! You were just stalling me from distributing this wondrous storm until the 'Guardians'," he said mocking the name "Came along to stop it so it wouldn't harm any on their precious little brats! WEREN'T YOU!" he screamed Hiccup strangely seeing fire in the Winter Spirits eyes.
"No it's not like that at all," Hiccup said getting really scared that feeling doubling when his right leg began to go numb. Taking a deep breath he looked at it and began to see ice growing up it. Gasping Hiccup looked to Toothless but saw a snowflaked muzzle was wrapped around his mouth meaning he couldn't attack the boy before them.
"HICCUP!"
"Well 'Dragon Conqueror' that's not going to happen," Jokul Frosti said grinning a bit too much "I have always wanted to try this..." he said jumping into the air holding up his staff? scythe? whatever and twirling it around above his head.
"Trenchant Weather, Sleet and Hail
Snow and Sleet and Winds that Wail
I beg a deed from me to you
Unleash, Unleash around the world
This storm I brew!"
And just like that the storm went wider and wider encasing the whole North Pole and, if it wasn't stopped soon, the whole world!
"Oh that felt good..." Jokul Frosti said grinning coming back down looking at his 'masterpiece'.
"You wont get away with this..." Hiccup said shivering ice now up to his waist.
"Aww... that's so... sweet, you think you'll have a chance of stopping me," Jokul said the aura around him now gone and his hair now totally black, no fun on his face at all, and his eyes darker than ever.
"HICCUP WHERE ARE YOU!"
"Well it was ever so nice to see you again Hiccup," Jokul Frosti said bowing mockingly grinning "I would say 'See you again soon'... But lets be honest. I don't think that will happen now will it?" he said and with that and him giving off a laugh that did not fit Jack Frost at all, he took off into the night sky.

The Guardians just a bit earlier...
Step by step, the search and rescue patrol made it closer to the center of the storm where they were begining to see the outline of a black something, having a feeling that he knew what it was Stoick called out.
"HICCUP!"
When nothing answered but the winds winds began to pick up again everyone tried to tread forward more, more quickly to get to Hiccup and Toothless as fast as they can.
"HICCUP!"
All at once Mother Nature came to a halt and looked into the sky a look of fear on her face. "No... No Jack don't..." she said getting everyone to look at her confused.
"Err... Rabbit?" Astrid said turning to a shivering cursing under his breath Bunny "I thought you said 'Nothing scares her'."
"What?" he asked looking to Mother Nature then to where she was looking seeing a speck in the sky, a midnight blue bubble around it his ears flicking hearing Jack's voice.
"Trenchant Weather, Sleet and Hail
Snow and Sleet and Winds that Wail
I beg a deed from me to you
Unleash, Unleash around the world
This storm I brew!"
Jack's voice cried out and at the last word the storm got harsher, colder, meaner, and began to go wider.
"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Mother Nature screamed rushing to Bunny a small but her sharp dagger in her working hand ready to attack Bunny but was held back by Sandy and North.
"What wrong?" Fishlegs asked scared to hear the answer "What was that... That spell(?) that Jack was just casting?"
"Something that proved he's got no chance of turning back to good for a long time..." Mother Nature said still trying to get to the rabbit "AND IT'S ALL HIS FAULT!" she screamed and began kicking.
"I'm sure whatever it is Bunny's done he's deserved it dear," Eleanor agreed stepping in front of her to get her eyes off of Bunny "But and trying not to be too rash here... That doesn't answer the young boys question."
Taking a deep breath, and calming down Mother Nature explained.
"That is a spell," she began now standing on her own two feet again "Only done once before by another person who wielded the winter weather, that coats the land, or the caster's place of desire in a white out storm." that got some people to go quiet frightened look on their faces.
"The last time it was done, it was the middle of winter and since it was only set around the Pole it only lasted one night," she continued explaining "But now... With Spring less than one week away, and his request for it to coat the whole world, it's not going to clear up in time, meaning nature will be off balance the whole year. AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!" she screamed to Bunny once again, before spinning on her heal and began running back the way they came.
Ten seconds of silence went by before everyone looked to Bunny unamused at what he did.
"Don't... Don't we have a kid Viking to find?" Bunny asked trying to get the attention off him.
"We will get back to this later, Bunnymund," North said to him getting nods of agreement from Sandy and Tooth who was rubbing her arms.
"HICCUP WHERE ARE YOU!" Stoick cried out again as they began to move forward again.
"DAD! DAD I'M OVER HERE!" Hiccup called back telling everyone he heard, getting them to race ahead as fast as they could thanks to the winds to get to him.
When they got there, they gasped at the sight of seeing Hiccup to his chest in ice atop of a muzzled Toothless.
Pulling out a snowglobe, that North always had in his coat pocket, he cried "POLE!" and slammed it in front of them as Astrid and Fishlegs together pulled the muzzle off Toothless.
Letting Hiccup, Toothless and Stoick go first, North telling his Yeti's to go next to lead them to the infirmary, everyone followed after that thanking their gods as much as they could that they didn't need to be out here any more.
AN Hope you... Like that?
Ahem... I may of just made this need to go on even longer - So I hope you're enjoying it
Oh and to those who can't work out where Jokul's 'spell' came from or what Mother Nature was talking about about that 'One other time'
It's the spell Stormella casts from the 1998 movie...
