"I can't believe that I got separated from the boys!"

Ruffnut told herself while whining as she gets lost throughout the tunnels.

She is almost going to have a fit when she notices some dragon eggs laying on nests.

Not only that, she can hear a dragon patrolling the area.

Ruffnut then goes to hiding waiting for the dragon to leave before going in another direction.

Unaware of her surroundings, a hand clasped onto her mouth to keep her quiet as she tries to get out.

"Shh!"

Said the responsible surprising Ruffnut.

She then turned to see Astrid right in front of her.

"Cried out loud, and the babies will awake."

The shieldmaiden said.

"Let's leave the hatchery for a moment."

And with that, Astrid escorted Ruffnut out of the hatchery.

Once they're out, Ruffnut embraces the maiden causing her to have ugly cries.

"Do you know how worried I am, girl?!"

She exclaimed and the blind rider comforts her.

"There, there, Ruff. There, there."

Astrid said until Ruff pulls away.

"By the way, how come you didn't get eaten by dragons?"

Asked the feminine twin.

"I was taken in by the Haddock family."

Astrid's answer shocks Ruffnut.

"Haddock? As in, the whole Haddock family?"

She asked.

"Yeah. Stoick, Valka, and Hiccup Haddock. Speaking of which, we better catch up with them because you, Gobber, and the boys trespassed the dragon territory. You are lucky that some humans are living here."

Astrid then whistles to summon Luna causing Ruffnut to shriek upon the dragon's arrival.

"Don't worry. She's not going to hurt you."


Gobber wasn't expecting something like he just saw a ghost.

Right in front of him was the Haddock couple sitting at the glowing glacier whispering worries and comforts to one another until their conclusion.

Once they were done, they turned to face the blacksmith.

"Long time no see, Gobber."

Valka said.

"W-w-wha-? But how?!"

Gobber finally finds a voice.

"It's a long story. We'll explain it along the way."

Stoick said before going into the tunnels.

"Come."

Valka said to Gobber before following her husband.

"Hey!"

The blacksmith exclaimed.


"You better warn me about this next time!"

Ruffnut said once she and Astrid, on Luna, landed on a cliffside spot.

"Sorry, Ruff. But, we have to wait for them to bring Gobber and the boys here."

Astrid said once she and Ruffnut dismounted.

"Uh, just to know, how did you get to see things again?"

"I didn't. I only see the smell."

The feminine twin became dumbfounded upon hearing it.

"Oh."

Suddenly, they heard some screams.

Turns out, it was Snotlout, Fishlegs, and Tuffnut running out of a tunnel until the black-haired heir trips and lands in front of Astrid.

When he looked up, he was shocked to see her.

"Babe?"

The nickname he gave her made him get stomped on the head by her boot.

"So nice to see you, knucklehead."

Astrid said sarcastically.

Fishlegs and Tuffnut, on the other hand, got slapped on the face by Ruffnut to get them out of their shocking state.

That also ended up for the twins to fight once more.

"W-what?! But how?!"

Fishlegs exclaimed in question.

Just then, chuckles came as Hiccup walked out of the tunnel with Toothless.

"One of our dragons found her washed ashore, so we took her in."

He answered.

"How come you are so calm through this, traitor?!"

Snotlout muffles as he is still being stomped.

"Shut up, idiot! He and his parents saved me from danger, and calling him a traitor is very offensive to dragon-loving rebels!"

Astrid replied as she repeatedly stomps him.

"Astrid, stop it! You're going to give him a concussion!"

Hiccup complaints forced the blind maiden to stop.

"Also, the strong smell of what my mother called a 'cologne' on him is getting my nose some sensitivity. I suggest bathing him."

He added.

"Wait, what?!"

Snotlout exclaimed before he was taken by a Monstrous Nightmare and dumped into a bubbling tub.

He is not happy about it whereas the twins are laughing at him.

"Wait!"

The teens soon heard the voice of the blacksmith as both of Hiccup's parents came out of the tunnels with Gobber catching up to them.

Fishlegs almost faints upon seeing the parents.

When Gobber catches up, he is shocked to see Astrid alive and well... almost.

"Astrid? But how?"

He asked.

"They took me in."

Astrid said gesturing to the Haddocks.

"Now, how about some roasted fish for lunch, then we can talk it out?"

Valka suggests.

"Sounds good to me."

Said the masculine twin.

"Me too."

Said the feminine twin.

Just then, they heard a thud before they turned to see Snotlout escape his bath with a shocked expression upon seeing his aunt and uncle alive before turning to Hiccup with a wrathful glare.

"You better not take my position as the heir!"

Somehow, he was sent back to the bath again leaving the dragon boy confused.
