Elsa's eyes snapped open. Looking around, she wondered what had woken her. Sitting up on the bed she had made of ice, she looked at the large wooden door, which was open. She wondered what had woken her when she noticed that Copal and Emerald were both missing. Looking over at her sister, who was fast asleep on the bed next to hers, she got to her feet, and went up to the loft were Indi was resting.

"Indi," she said, softly as she came to the landing. Looking at the bed, she saw that the dark-haired youth was absent, his chestplate laying on the bed. Elsa stared at the dark armor for a moment, blinking in disbelief, before storming through the open door, her nightgown flowing behind her.

Indi stood at the edge of the cliff overlooking the dark ocean beneath him. Above him was a field of stars, the little lights winking mournfully. Copal and Emerald were at his side. Indi leaned forward slightly, and the ground beneath his feet cracked a bit, sending a few rocks tumbling down. Emerald looked up and shrieked, flapping her wings. Indi looked down at the little dragon, then up at where she was looking. From above came a Razorwhip call, followed by a female voice.

"Indi!"

The youth did nothing as the dragon landed behind him. He heard Elsa dismount and Hannah transform.

"Indi, come away," Elsa said, reaching forward. Indi did nothing; he did not move, nor make a sound.

"Indi," Hannah said. "What's wrong?"

"It's gone," Indi said, leaning forward more, making more rocks fall. Copal and Emerald took a few steps back, sensing the danger.

"What's gone?" Elsa said, taking a cautious step forward. She took Indi's hand and gently pulled him away from the edge. As the youth stepped back, not resisting the pull, the area of ground that he had been standing on gave way and went crashing down the cliff, into the ocean. Elsa took Indi's face in her hands and looked into his eyes. She gasped; instead of seeing the bright eyes of a mutant, she saw the dead, cold eyes of a corpse. "Hannah, look." The female mutant stepped up to Indi and stared hard into his face.

"Indi," Hannah said softly. "I want you to transform."

Indi watched as the females and his younglings stepped away. He sighed and looked away. "I can't."

"You can," Elsa asked. "It's okay, In-."

"Don't you get it?!" Indi said, rage tearing through his voice. "I can't! It's gone. The Indominus rex is gone!"

Elsa and Hannah stared in shock. "This is no reason to kill yourself," Elsa said, shaking her head. "You have an obligation to the dinomorphs, the dracomorphs, and the people of Arendelle. Are you going to betray them all?"

"I wasn't going to kill myself," Indi muttered, turning away.

"Regardless," Elsa said. "Come back to the Edge, and we'll figure out what to do."

Indi turned and looked at the horizon, which was just starting to brighten. He sighed, then nodded. Hannah transformed, and Elsa climbed on her back. The silver form took off and Indi motioned for his younglings to follow them. The white dragons took flight, and flapped up alongside Hannah. The three draconic forms flew off, over the tree line.

Indi took a deep breath and strode into the forest.

When he arrived back at the outpost, he saw everyone was going into the Clubhouse. Striding up the walkway, he watched as a small flock of Night Terrors settled in a tree for the night.

Reaching the meeting place, Indi looked around; all the riders were there, along with Brynn, Anna, and Hannah.

Indi walked, in and everyone gave him a wide berth, even the dragons. He grabbed a chair and dragged it to the back of the room. Sitting in it, he rest his head against the wooden wall, his lifeless eyes staring at nothing.

"What's wrong with-?" Snotlout asked. Astrid smacked the back of his head, making him shut up.

"Thank you all for coming," Elsa said, folding her hands awkwardly. "Something has happened to Indi." She paused a moment before continuing. "The substance that Von Schwicke has put in him has taken his abilities."

A cup that Brynn was holding fell to the floor with a clatter. Her eyes wide and her mouth slack, she uttered a single word that was barely audible. "What?"

"The Indominus inside him is gone," Elsa said, lowering her eyes.

"Does that mean..." Hiccup started. Hannah nodded mournfully, before walking over to Indi, her bare feet padding on the wood floor. She bent over and wrapped her arms around Indi from behind. She nuzzling his neck, the girl placed a kiss on Indi's jaw.

As Indi leaned into the girl slightly, Elsa's temper flared defensively. Reigning in her emotions, the queen spoke. "Indi, do you want to eat something?"

Indi shook his head a bit, before standing, leaving Hannah's grasp. As Indi left the building, Elsa noticed Hannah's eyes follow him.

Indi bared his teeth and slammed the sword into the scarred opponent in front of him, the blade cutting into the wood just a bit. His shirt was loose and comfortable, allowing for easier movement than his chestplate, which was left in his hut. Behind him, he heard Hiccup's voice speak softly. "How long has he been here?"

Ignoring the people behind him, Indi drew the sword out and slammed the blade into the other side of the dummy.

"Since this morning," Elsa said, equally as quiet. "after we told you."

"Did he eat?" Fishlegs asked.

Elsa shook her head as Indi spun his sword and slashed the middle of the dummy.

"Poor guy," Snotlout said. "I swear, if we ever see that Bon Sweet guy again, I'll have Hookfang roast him."

"Thanks for the thought, Lout," Indi said, tearing the sword out of the dummy, before swinging once more, burying the blade into the top of the figure's straw-stuffed head.

"Hey, at least he's feeling better," Tuffnut said. Everyone turned to glare at the male. "Too soon?"

"Yeah, maybe just a bit," Fishlegs said.

Indi removed his sword and examined it. He glanced at the group before returning the blade to the rack.

"Come on," Indi said. "We're going to Arendelle."

"No," Elsa said. "You are not going anywhere. You just woke up, and we all can clearly see that you are in no state to go flying, let alone for that long. No, you are staying here. If you really want to go to Arendelle-"

"I do," Indi said. "I need to see my pack."

"Then we'll see how you are doing in a few days. I'm glad your feeling better, but you shouldn't really be exerting yourself."

Indi glared, and Elsa shuddered as the dark eyes bore into hers.

Indi shook his head and strode off, leaving the group behind. He made his way along the wooden path, his shoes clicking on the boards.

Arriving at the shore, he walked along the beach, the sand holding his footprints. He made his way to a secluded cove that he had found while he went exploring with his pack all those months ago.

Sitting beneath a rock overhang, he watched the waves crash onto the shore. As the water receded, he heard the sound of a set of wings. A familiar shadow glided along the sand, and a silver dragon with blue eyes landed.

Indi moved over as Hannah transformed. Wordlessly, the female sat next to him. Indi put his arm around Hannah's shoulders and pulled her close.

After a while of simply sitting together in silence, Hannah spoke. "Are you alright?"

Indi sighed. "For the first time in a long while, I don't know what to do."

"What about Von Schwicke?" Hannah said. "You seemed really bent of taking him down."

"I am. I just... don't see how I can fight without my abilities."

"You'll figure it out. You'll have to learn..." Hannah said. "I guess you'll have to learn to be a Viking; I've heard there might be a few around here."

Indi grunted. "One thing's for sure."

"What's that?" Hannah said.

"I'll need your help."

Hannah smiled and kissed Indi on the cheek. "Consider it done."

Now, a lot of you thought that Indi would die. Since he is clearly alive, I would like to pose a question: Is living with fifty percent of who he is now gone worse than death?
