~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(The Dragon Riders are out in the forest of Dragon Isles practicing flying)

Hiccup: Follow me! Low-level evasive maneuvers! Come on, bud!

"What are you doing lads?" Gobber asked tilting his head.

"Training Exercises" Hiccup said vaguely.

Hiccup (v.o.): When you're riding a dragon, communication is key. You almost have to read each other's minds. Or else...

"Or else you end up like Snoutlout" sniggered Tuffnut

"HEY!"

(Hookfang intentionally flies of course through a bunch of tree branches)

Snotlout: Hey! What are you doing?! Are you trying to kill me?! We gotta go back! I think you missed a branch! Got it!

The teens start cracking up.

"Nah, I think Hookfang didn't miss a branch."

"And If he did, he didn't miss it the second time" Cackled Ruffnut

Hiccup (v.o.): And you have to have an open mind, because sometimes, your dragon knows better than you.

Berk scoffed.

Yeah right

Noell: Stormfly, up!

(Stormfly disobeys Noell's command to fly between trees, because she senses a fallen tree, she throws Noell up and flies under. Noell lads on Stormfly's back)

Noell: You were right, Stormfly. It was down. I almost died.

Snotlout: Almost died? I would've died!

"But you lived, Yay us."

(Takes a branch out of his nose)

Noell: That's a good look for you

(Snoutlout puts the branch back in his nose and smiles at Noell)

"That's taking dress to impress to a whole new level" Ernalynn stated causing everyone to jump. The three Haddock kids were so quiet everyone forgot they were here.

"What?!" Snotlout asked "She said she liked it!" He said defensively.

"That's called Sarcasm!" Aina deadpanned.

Snotlout's face fell, and he turned away.

Hiccup: Has anyone seen Fishlegs ?

Ruffnut: I saw him yesterday. Does that count?

(Hiccup groans and flies off in search of him. Hiccup finds Fishlegs and Meatlug caught in the trees)

Hiccup: Oh, there you are, Fishlegs. Are you okay?

Fishlegs: I'm fine. Just hanging out. It's not like I crashed or anything. Okay, I crashed. There, I said it.

"Everyone crashes eventually. I crashed multiple times learning to fly Toothless" Hiccup said patting Fishlegs on the shoulder.

Fishlegs gave Hiccup a grateful smile.

(Tries to pull Fishlegs from the tree but pulls off his pants instead)

Everyone winces.

Hiccup: Oops.

"Oops, you just pulled someone's pants off and all you have to say is oops?" A Viking asked incredulously.

Fishlegs: And there goes my dignity.

(Hiccup continues to try to pull Fishlegs out of the tree but couldn't)

Hiccup: Yeah, you're pretty stuck. I think I know how to get you down, but you have to stay perfectly still.

"What are you planning Hiccup?" Gobber asked eye his old apprentice suspiciously.

Fishlegs: Why? What are you going to do?

Hiccup: Careful, bud, he's not wearing any pants.

This line caused many snorts to rise from the audience.

Fishlegs: Huh? Wait a second, what does my lack of pants have to do-- (Toothless shoots Fishlegs out of the tree and catches him) OH! Thank you. Um, I believe those are mine. (Takes his pants back from Hiccup)

Hiccup: Now, what are we going to do about? (Meatlug crashes down to the ground, breaking the trees)

Fishlegs: Can you not tell the others Meatlug broke the trees? She's sensitive about her weight.

Hiccup: How did this happen?

Fishlegs: I don't know! I was just flying along, taking notes on the flora and fauna... typical guy stuff. And something weird jumped out of the bushes. It was like a... flaming squirrel.

Hiccup: Really? A flaming squirrel? (Looks skeptical)

"Now that I hear it, I can understand why you didn't believe me Hiccup" Fishlegs said looking skeptical himself.

Fishlegs: Or a chipmunk. Or some other flammable rodent. I don't know Hiccup, it scared us. Isn't that enough for you? (Flies off on Meatlug)

Hiccup: Did you hear that? A flaming squirrel. Everyone knows there's no such thing as a-- (Something on fire zooms past) FLAMING SQUIRREL! Whoa! You saw that, right?

"I thought you didn't believe in flaming squirrels."

"I never said that Snoutlout"

(Hiccup an injured baby dragon under a rock)

Hiccup: Hey, Little guy. Who are you? (Baby snaps at Hiccup) Whoa, settle down, big fella!

"Big? He is not big" Astrid said.

"Well, at least not yet" Noell told her sister getting her a few confused looks.

Hiccup: I've never seen anything like him. (Toothless growls) You're not helping. You know, I think we may have discovered a new species here! Whoa, hey! What has gotten into you? Looks like he's hurt! (To the baby dragon) Don't be afraid, I'm a friend. Here. It's okay. It's just a little Dragon Nip. Come on, play nice. (The baby dragon flies out to Hiccup) AHH! Little dragon, big claws! Come on, let's go. We'll fix you right up.

(Scene switches to the Dragon Academy)

Fishlegs: This is so exciting! It's a whole new species!

"Geek mod fully activated" Snoutlout said annoyed with his arms crossed.

Tuffnut: Doesn't look like a flaming squirrel to me.

"Because it's a dragon Tuff, we've been over this many many times."

Fishlegs: We have no idea what it's capable of! There's no telling what it might do.

(Tuffnut Gets in the dragon's face and gives him an order)

Tuffnut: Flame! Do it!

(Baby dragon jumps on his face and chews on his nose. Ruffnut laughs.)

Tuffnut: AH! Get it off, get it off, get it off!

(Dragon jumps to Ruffnut and bites her nose)

Tuffnut: Oh, that is funny.

Hiccup: Come on, you guys, this is serious! We have to figure out what to do with him. He's hurt!

Tuffnut: He's hurt?

Hiccup: He's just really scared. He'll settle down.

Fishlegs: Um, new species, remember? We actually don't know what he'll do.

"That's not helping Fishlegs" Stoick said in his Chief voice.

Noell: Well, somebody's got to take him home.

(All the Riders step away, leaving Hiccup holding the baby)

Hiccup: Well, big guy, here's your somebody.

(Scene changes to the that evening. Hiccup has the baby, while Axel and Toothless stand by the unlit hearth)

Axel: No, no, no! He's not staying here. I've got a one-dragon limit!

"I have a 0 dragon limit" a Viking said causing many to agree with him.

Hiccup: Oh, come on! He's not a very big dragon! Think of him more like... a flaming squirrel.

"How is that any better?"

Axel: Don't want one of those either. (He asks Toothless to light the fire) Toothless, what are you waiting for? (Toothless opens mouth to light fire, but the baby dragon shoots first and lights it) Ah, looks like you torched. Oh, that's his name, by the way. Torch.

Hiccup: So, he can stay?

Axel: Well, can't throw him out now! I just named him!

"You changed your mind pretty quickly chief" Schmidt said cheerfully.

"Ha ha ha" Axel replied with a roll of his eyes.

(Hiccup feeds fish to Toothless and Torch together)

Hiccup: Okay, a hundred for you, and one for you. There you go, boys, your first supper together.

(Hiccup turns away and Torch eats his fish and all of Toothless')

Ruffnut and Tuffnut break down laughing.

"Love your face T"

Toothless grumbles

Hiccup: Whoa, Toothless! Your sure hungry tonight, aren't you, bud?

Sniggers arise.

"I think it's the opposite."

(Hiccup and the two dragons are now in Hiccup's bedroom.)

Hiccup: Okay, Torch. This is where you're gonna sleep. (Torch goes over to Toothless' bed and lays down) Aw, look at that. He's made himself at home. Toothless, you don't mind sharing your bed for the night, do you? (Toothless gets irritated and goes to the rafters to sleep)

"I'd say he minds."

"Tuffnut, shut up."

Hiccup: Hope he sleeps through the night. He hardly ate. And you? Go to sleep.

(Toothless hears a commotion in the forest. An adult Typhoomerang is searching around and getting upset)

Almost Everyone's mouth drops open in shock. Realization dawns on Astrid

"That's why you said not yet" Astrid said in realization.

"That dragon is huge" Hoyce said in awe.

"So cool" breathed Aina

Hiccup grinned, his kids loved dragons.

(Scene changes to the next day at the Academy with the Riders and Torch)

Hiccup: Alright, Torch. Let's figure out what you are.

Fishlegs: Oh! This is so exciting! Documenting a whole new species... learning all about it!

Tuffnut: Wait, learning?

"Tuffnut, That's the whole point of having the Dragon Academy besides training dragons. To learn about them"

Ruffnut: No thanks.

Hiccup: There's nothing in the that looks anything like him.

Fishlegs: We even get to determine what it's called. Heh. That is... that is a really big responsibility. I don't know if I'm ready for that.

Snotlout: I am! I'm gonna name the snot out of it!

Spitlout grinned. He may be disappointed in his son but there's a chance a dragon was names after his clan.

Noell: (Noell measures Torch's wingspan) Twenty inches for the wings.

Hiccup: That's a big wingspan.

"It makes me wonder how big an adult Typhoomerang wingspan is" Fishlegs pondered.

"You know what Fishlegs, that's a good question" Hiccup replied excitedly.

Fishlegs squeals

Snotlout: Big Wing! Big Span! Big-Wingspan!

Fishlegs: May I have the honor of administering the claw-test? (Holds out a piece of paper in front of Torch, who slices it up) Look at these talons... They're razor-like.

Snotlout: Sharp-Claw! Razor-Feet! Razor-Sharp-Claw-Talon-Feet!

"Come on, those were good!"

Tuffnut: Hold on. Is he serious?

Fishlegs: You know what's next, don't you?

Hiccup: No, not really.

Fishlegs: Only the single most important test to determine a dragon's reaction to ... The Eel-Reaction-Test!

(Pulls out an eel from a basket. The other dragons fly away. He holds it out to Torch who sniffs it, then eats it)

There goes that idea Stoick thought.

Fishlegs: He ate it! He ate the eel!

Snotlout: Eel Eater! Come on, that's perfect.

"What type of dragon name was that?" Ruffnut question

"Yeah, it wasn't scary at all" Her twin finished.

Hiccup: Fishlegs, has there ever been a Dragon who wasn't afraid of--

Fishlegs: Never in recorded history. We're in uncharted waters, my friend.

Hiccup: You hear that, Torch? You're one of a kind.

"I though Toothless was one of a kind?" Tuffnut asked confused.

"He is" Hiccup says Turning to Toothless and scratches him "Aren't you bud?"

Toothless warbles

Fishlegs: Now we need to get him to fly.

Hiccup: Maybe if Torch saw Toothless fly? Toothless! Let's take a ride, bud! Toothless! (calls out to Toothless, but he ignores him)

Snotlout: Ha, ha, ha! So much for the dragon trainer. We've got this! Watch and learn! Hookfang! (Hookfang flies around wildly) Okay, your turn. Don't think you have to live up to that.

"Nobody can live up to that Snoutlout"

Snoutlout puffed his chest of proudly.

"It wasn't a compliment" was followed causing him to scowl.

(Torch walks in circles)

Ruffnut: What's he doing?

Noell: I think something's wrong.

Tuffnut: Aw man, we broke him!

"I'm not surprised, you break everything" A Viking from Berk yelled out causing other Vikings to laugh. The twins grinned and bumped their helmets together.

Hiccup: Maybe he can't fly.

(Torch starts spinning in spirals and flies around the arena, sending out a spark shower as he does so)

Hiccup: You... are one incredible little dragon!

Ruffnut: Whoa... Look at that burn mark!

Tuffnut: Look at this burn mark. (Holds out arm which is smoldering)

"Whoa" Went around the room

Fishlegs: Did you see how he flew? He spun like... like a typhoon!

Noell: And he came back just like a boomerang!

Snotlout: Hot-Spinner! Flaming-Combacker!

Fishlegs: No...

Snotlout: Typhoomerang...? Nah, I don't get it.

Facepalming could be heard throughout the room.

(Scene changes to the evening back at Hiccup's bedroom. He is trying to draw Torch while torch walks in circle's wearing Hiccup's helmet)

Hiccup: Okay, Torch. Hold still. I'm trying to draw you. You're getting your own chapter. Gerr... Rarr, rarr! Rarr! (Plays with Torch)

The villagers smiled at the interaction.

(Toothless hears growling in the distance and charges up to Hiccup trying to tell him something. Hiccup breaks his charcoal pencil)

Hiccup: Toothless! Look what you did! And now I've got to get more charcoal. Toothless, you behave yourself while I'm gone. (Addressing Torch) Hey, it's okay, big guy. I'll be right back.

(Toothless and Torch wrestle, and Torch starts a small fire in the room. Hiccup comes back and put out the fire with a blanket)

Hiccup: Toothless! Wh-what is going on here? Toothless, why did you do this? What is wrong with you? (Toothless runs from the building into the forest) Toothless! Wait! It's okay, big guy. He's starting to worry me too.

"No need to worry over a dragon, son. He's bound to leave you at some point" Stoick said trying to comfort Hiccup.

Hiccup ignored him and Axel glared at the man.

(Toothless runs through the woods. He encounters a mother Typhoomerang who kills a wild boar with fire protecting two baby Typhoomerangs that are Torch's age)

(Scene changes to Hiccup visiting Schimdt in the with Torch)

Hiccup: It's weird. It's like, Toothless is jealous. Which is great. So... my first girlfriend is a dragon.

Everyone snorted and Hiccup's ears turned red with embarrassment.

Schmidt: Another thing we have in common.

Everyone looked at Schmidt but as Schmidt opened his mouth to explain a Hiccup interrupted him.

"Not right now Schmidt. Your stories take forever and I for one want to finish this episode."

Schmidt closed his mouth.

Schmidt: Something must be going on under the surface.

"No kidding" Aina said sarcastically.

Schmidt: Dragons are complex creatures, Hiccup. They operate on many emotional levels. Me? I've only got the one.

(Toothless runs up, very agitated and trying to tell Hiccup something)

Hiccup: Whoa! Okay, Toothless! You, see? This is what I've been talking about. Toothless, settle down! (Toothless grabs Torch and tries to run away with him) Schmidt! Grab him!

Schmidt: You want to dance, big boy? 'Cause I've got my dancing shoe on!

"But you can't dance!" Axel said laughing "Most Viking's, especially you, cannot dance!"

Schmidt huffed, "I'll show you," he mumbled, "Someday, I'm going to prove that I am the best dancer in the entire village."

The teens glanced at each other, "Let not get ahead of ourselves..." Noell said.

Schmidt: Gotcha! Whoa!

(Schmidt grabs Toothless by the tail and is dragged around the Smithy. Schmidt crashes into a worktable)

Schmidt: My panpipes! Now I can get the band back together!

"Seriously, that's what your focused on" Hiccup said exasperated.

Axel, Sander, and Destian groaned.

"Let's not bring those times up" Sander said.

The teens stared at the adults but Noell, Hiccup, and Snoutlout were the widest eyed because those were their father's.

"Those five were in a band?" Fishlegs asked.

"Who'd of thought?" Noell said.

Hiccup: Toothless! BACK! DOWN!

(Hiccup and Toothless stare at each other. Schmidt approaches playing his panpipes)

Hiccup: Not. Helping

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Leave it to Schmidt to provide comic relief.

Schmidt: Sorry.

Hiccup: I don't know what's gotten into you, but I don't like it.

(Plays his panpipes at the wrong occasion. Hiccup turns to look at him)

Schmidt: What?

"Not the time Schmidt"

(Scene changes to Hiccup trying to fly Toothless to the cove, but Toothless tries to take him to the forest)

Hiccup: Whoa! WHOA! Toothless! The cove... is this way! Where are you going?! No! You're going to the cove!

"So close"

(Hiccup and Toothless land in the Cove and Hiccup leaves)

Hiccup: Okay. You've gotta stay here. I never thought bringing Torch home would lead to this. I've gotta separate you two until I can figure this out. Toothless... This is serious. You've got to stay here. (Toothless blocks Hiccup's exit) Okay. A crazy, out-of-control dragon, blocking my way out. Or not! (Hiccup ducks around Toothless and leaves him)

(Scene changes to that evening with Hiccup lying awake in bed)

(Scene shifts to Toothless in the cove trying to sleep, but is disturbed by the adult Typhoomerang crashing around in the forest)

(Scene changes to the Arena with Snotlout, Noell, and Hiccup with Torch)

Noell: You did the right thing with Toothless. He'll snap out of it.

Snotlout: Ya, but what if he doesn't. Then you won't have a dragon to ride, and if you don't have a Dragon to ride then you can't be the leader of the Dragon Academy! HA!

Noell: Yeah, then I'd take over. Do you really want that?

Snoutlout shook his head causing Noell to smirk.

(The Twins arrive on Barf and Belch)

Tuffnut: You guys would not believe what we just saw.

Snotlout: Excuse me, we're having a power struggle.

"We were not having a power struggle."

Hiccup: We're not having a power struggle.

Tuffnut: The whole forest. Ultimate destruction.

Ruffnut: It was beautiful. The whole thing was torched.

"You would like that."

Hiccup: Torched? Show me.

(Twins take the gang to the woods where a giant spiral scorch mark is)

Ruffnut: Like we said, ultimate destruction.

Hiccup: We've seen that burn mark before.

Noell: Not this big.

Fishlegs: You know what this means. Big burn mark--

Hiccup: Big Typhoomerang

(The adult Typhoomerang appears flying in the sky burning things)

Tuffnut: It looks really mad.

Hiccup: Uh, it's not a he, it's a she. That's Torch's mother.

Noell: Torch is a baby.

Hiccup: That's what Toothless was trying to tell me.

Fishlegs: Whoever gets between that mother and this baby is gonna get fried!

The Vikings eyes widened.

"Get out of there!" Some shouted

"Preferably quickly" shouted another.

(Passes Torch to Tuffnut)

Tuffnut: You take it!

(Passes Torch to Ruffnut)

Ruffnut: I don't want it!

(Passes Torch to Snotlout)

Snotlout: Just leave it, and let's get out of here.

(Passes Torch to Hiccup)

(Torch's Mother sees Hiccup holding her baby)

Hiccup: Uh-oh. Now, uh, go home to your Mama. RUN! You guys go that way, I'll lead her back into the forest away from the village.

Stoick sighed. Why did Hiccup have to put himself in danger?

Noell: Hiccup!

Hiccup: (Running through woods with Torch's Mother following) Oh, please stop following me! TOOTHLESS!

(Calls for Toothless then jumps over the edge of the Cove. Re-emerges riding Toothless)

Hiccup: Thanks, bud. I'm so sorry. I should have listened to you.

"Yes, you should've" Tuffnut commented earning him a punch and glare from Noell.

(Torch's Mother pursues them in the sky)

Hiccup: Toothless, evasive maneuvers! Oh, why won't she stop?

(Torch appears behind Hiccup on Toothless)

Schmidt chucked "I'm guessing that's why."

Hiccup: What the--? Torch?! What are you doing?! You need to be with your mother! Toothless, we have to try something else. We'll use her size against her!

"Smart" Gobber commented.

Hiccup: Toothless, up! Now! Dive!

(Torch's Mother is unable to make a sharp turn and crashes into the ground)

Hiccup: I hope she's okay.

(Torch runs over to his downed mother and cuddles her. His siblings jump from her back, and they all reunite)

"Awwww"

Hiccup: Good job, bud. Everybody's back where they belong. (Torch gets on his mother's back with his siblings) Goodbye, Torch.

(Torches mother flies away)

Hiccup: Let's go home, Toothless.

(Scene changes to the Haddock House that evening. Hiccup, Toothless, Axel, and Schmidt are sitting around the fire. Schmidt is Playing his panpipes)

Sander Groaned "Not again"

Schmidt: Ah. I wrote this just for the occasion.

Hiccup: I should have known you were just trying to protect me. That's what you do. (Vomits up a fish for Hiccup) And then you do that.

Many people Blanche in disgust.

Hiccup (v.o.): (Flying through woods) Communication between dragon and rider goes both ways.

"Ha, tell that to Hookfang," Snotlout stated.

HookFang snorted setting Snotlouts head on fire

"Uh..Snotlout" Aina started.

"What?" Snotlout snapped and because of this Aina decided not to tell him.

"Nothing"

Hiccup (v.o.): Not only must the dragon follow the Rider's lead, but the Rider must listen to the dragon as well. Because sometimes, what the dragon is trying to say is what you really need to hear.

"Unlike that," Hiccup grinned, gesturing to Snotlout head on fire.

"What are you talking about?"

"Dude, your heads on fire."

"What!" Snotlout shrieked "put it out! Put it out!"

Ernalynn took care of it by dumping some water on his head.

Snotlout crossed his arms and scowled while the teens sniggered.

"Where did those flowers come from"

The teens just shrugged not having an answer.

Don't be silent readers! I love feedback and hearing what's on your mind!
