Hiccup and Astrid rode their bikes up to the front entrance of the museum. They pulled up the bike rack near the front doors. Hiccup got off his bike and pulled it up to the lot. He glanced to the far end and saw Fishleg's bike chained to the pole.

"Look's like Fishlegs already here." He said, turning Astrid.

"He's probably already inside setting up." Astrid said.

Hiccup glanced down to his watch. It was forty minutes passed eight. Their shift didn't start until nine twenty.

"We should get going." He said.

"Our shift starts soon."

Hiccup and Astrid walked into the museum. They came into the main entrance, where they saw Gobber mopping.

"Gobber." Hiccup said.

Gobber glanced up from mopping the floor.

"Ah, good morning, Hiccup." He said, leaning against the pole of his mop.

"Morning Astrid."

"Have you seen Fishlegs?" Hiccup asked, curiously.

"Yeah, I saw him in the facility room with Dr. DeLilsle," Gobber said. pointing to the hallway behind him.

Hiccup and Astrid walked into the faculty room and saw Fishlegs and Dr. Delilsle sitting at the table, examining the map.

"Fishlegs." Hiccup said.

Fishlegs turned to him and Astrid.

"Hiccup, Astrid, I'm glad your here!" he said.

"What are you doing here?" Hiccup asked, curiously.

"We have to give a tour in twenty minutes."

Fishlegs stood up from his seat and took the small Ipad laying on the table.

"Me and Delilsle were examining the map." He said.

He scrolled his Ipad.

"I did some research on Viking and Maruvian interactions. There wasn't much but I did find this."

He handed Hiccup his Ipad. Hiccup took the Ipad and looked down at the screen. Which showed an image of a carving a large bearded man with Horns on each side of his head, wielding an ax. Facing what looked to be a carving of a dargon.

"This was taken in the Maruvian Temple in Peru."

Hiccup squinted his eyes. He narrowed his head to get a closer look at the carving. It didn't look like the sunbirds normally seen in Maruvian stone carvings.

This carving seemed to resemble of the a... dragon. Hiccup widened, realizing the carving of the man and dragon were of Modolf and the Night Fury.

"Modolf!" He said.

"Yeah," Fishlegs said.

"The carving is the of an ancient Maruvian tale of a great tribe from across the sea, who followed a great night shadow. They say the chief faced the beast in the great mountains near the lost Maruvian city."

Hiccup and Astrid glanced to one another.

"Do you guys know what this means?" Fishlegs said.

"This is actual evidence that Vikings and Maruvians have met before."

"Now way." Hiccup said, turning back to the carving.

"And Professor Castillo's expedition were to those very ruins." Dr. Delilsle said.

"Hiccup, those ruins could have more to show about our history." Fishlegs said.

Hiccup narrowed his eyes and pondered. Professor Castillo had just stumbled upon a new discovery about their Viking history. And if those Ruins could tell them more about Modelf and the Nightfury, it could change everything.

Fishlegs turned to Dr. Delilsle.

"Dr. Delilsle, we need an expedition to those ruins." Fishlegs said.

"Fishlegs, we would need funding in order to launch an expedition like this." She said.

"The Museum already spent millions of dollars on the new Maruvian Exhibit."

"Maybe my parents can help." Hiccup said.

"What?" Dr. Delilsle said, turning to Hiccup.

"My mom and dad could fund the expedition." Hiccup offered.

"Hey, yeah!" Fishlegs said, snapping his fingers.

Astrid glanced to Hiccup.

"Are you sure, Hiccup?" she asked.

"Astrid, you told me last night I need to go beyond what my parents have done." he said.

"This could be my chance to do something for Berk. What's the harm in trying?"

Astrid glanced to the side as she pondered.

"I guess not." she said

Hiccup walked up to the table and rolled up the map.

"Come one, my dads over at the Town hall."

"What about the tour?" Fishlegs said.

"I have someone from the facility cover it." Dr. Delilsle said.

"Thanks Delilsle." Hiccup said.

Hiccup, his friends and the doctor walked up to his father's office. They came up to the desk where his Secrety was sitting.

"Hey Melody." He said.

She looked up from her computer and turned to him.

"Hiccup," she said.

"How can I help you?"

"Is my dad in?" Hiccup asked, curiously.

"Oh yeah, just a second." she said.

She turned and pressed the intercom.

"Mr. Haddock?

"Yes, Melody?" Stoick said.

"Your son is here." she said.

"Hiccup?" Stoick said.

"Send him in."

"Yes Mr Haddock." Melody said.

She glanced up to Hiccup.

"You can go right in." She said.

"Thanks Melody." Hiccup said.

Hiccup turned and walked up to the doors to his fathers office. He opened the door and walked inside. His father was sitting behind his desk, signing several papers. He looked up from his work and saw Hiccup and his friends.

"Hiccup!" he said as he stood up from his desk.

"Hey, dad." Hiccup said.

"Hello, Mr Haddock." Dr. Delilsle said.

"Ah, Doctor Delilsle." Stoick said.

Stoick walked around his desk and came up to Delilsle, shaking her hand.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine, thank you." Delilsle said.

"I have to commend you for the work you've done at the Museum." Stoick said as he came back around his desk.

"The Maruvian exhibit has increased tourism for Berk."

"Speaking of the Maruvian exhibit," Hiccup said.

"Dad, we have something to show you. We think we might have made a discovery."

"A new discovery?" Stoick said.

Hiccup nodded his head. came up to his desk and pulled out the map from his backpack. He laid out the map and unraveled it.

"We found this in one of the Maruvian pottery." Hiccup said.

Stoick took his glasses and placed them over his nose. He narrowed his head and glanced down at the map.

"A map?" stoick asked, glancing up at his son.

"Not just any map." Fishlegs insisted.

"Look."

He pointed down at the drawing of the Nightfury. Stoick leaned closer as he squinted his eyes. He then paused, widened his eyes to the realization of the symbol on the map. Stoick glanced up at Hiccup.

"Is that...!" He said.

"The Nightfury!" Hiccup insisted.

"This is another of Moldof's map."

"And it leads right to a lost Maruvian city." Fishlegs insisted.

"We have reason to believe that Moldolf may have ended up in south america," Delilsle said.

"And he may have discovered a Marvian city."

Stoick glanced down at the map, shaking his head in disbelief. He could hardly find the words to describe it. The fact that Berk and Maru had History was just unprecedented.

"This is... extraordinary!" He said.

"Yeah, which is why we were wondering if you could fund an expedition." Hiccup said.

Stoick glanced up to his son, removing the glasses from his face as he squinted his eyes curiously.

"Expedition?" Stoick said.

Hiccup nodded his head.

"Uh... yeah." He said.

"We were hoping that the museum you and mom could help fund an expedition to this lost city."

"Hiccup, I would like to help," He insisted.

"But how do we know this city is even real, let alone this map?"

"Mr. Mayor, if I may." Dr Delilsle said.

"This lost city is real. My colleague, Professor Castillo lead an expedition to these ruins."

"Really?" Stoick asked, curiously.

"And did he not find anything?"

Delilsle paused. She narrowed her eyes, retracting her hand at the initial thought of her late colleague.

"I'm afraid he didn't make it." She said, sadly.

"Oh, I'm sorry," Stoick said, narrowing his eyes.

"Thank you." She said, appreciating his sympathy.

"And that's another reason." Stoick said, glancing to Hiccup.

"What if something goes wrong? If something were to happen to you."

"Dad, it's fine." Hiccup reassured his father.

"Nothings gonna happen."

"I'm still not sure." Stoick said.

"Dad, think about it." Hiccup said.

"We might have a history with the Maruvians. If Moldof was there, this lost city might tell us more about our history."

"Hiccup has a point." Astrid insisted.

"And dad, you said you wanted to increase tourism to the Town," Hiccup brought up.

"With a discovery like this, people will come from all over would come to Berk."

Stoick narrowed his head, stroking his long bushy brown beard. Tourism in Berk was at an all time high ever since Valka published her first novel. And it's remained steady ever since. But with a discovery like this, if word got out it would bring people from all around. Another piece of Berkian history, connected with a Latina Culture?

Not only that, but this would benefit local town businesses as well.

He glanced up at Dr. Delilsle.

"Docter," he said.

"How much would you need for the expedition?"

"Not much." She insisted.

"I should be able to cover some of the expedition myself. And I may know someone who could also help fund it."
