VVasnetsov: Thanks.

DJ Rodriguez: Further down the rabbit hole they go. And yes. This is a side of the Riddler that the movies and most video games don't show. He is dangerous and can be deranged in some cases.

And yes, things are going to progress as the movie goes on.

Now, on with the story!

The Night Fury Part 4

In the view of the Night Fury's Point of View, the Audience see numerous cops gathering around the dragon themed vigilante who was shown to be laying on a stretcher and on a table in Berk City Police Department. "Who do you think is under there?" Martinez's barely audible voice asked.

Many sighed in relief in the Audience. This being Stoick, Gobber, Daemon, Laena, Camicazi, Thuggory, Toothless and Valka. Even the kids and spirit (Jack) that Hiccup just met in the theater were relieved to see him okay, even if he was unconscious at the moment.

"I guess that human really is a dragon to survive the fire like so," Sharpshot said to the dragons next to him, them being the dragons from the Arena.

"That's a relief, otherwise I'd share some words with our dear host," Toothless growled protectively.

Rhaenys noticed her daughter's reaction. "So you care for the boy?" she asked. Her husband Corlys looked at his daughter with a raised eyebrow.

"He's like a son to me, Mother." Laena explained, making sure that the Vikings didn't hear her. "And my daughters see him as a brother and they his sisters."

Both Rhaenys and Corlys nodded to her, happy to know their daughter had a growing family and wanted to know the boy more when they had the time.

"Take it easy," Thuggory's voice said and the Audience see him subtly pushing Martinez and a few others away from the dragon themed vigilante as he regained consciousness.

"I want to see." Martinez said impatiently.

"What is that thing? Leather?" asked a medic as he inspects the Dragon's pupils.

"Why are they looking at his eyes?" Fishlegs asked.

"It's for medical reasons," Wasabi explained. "To check and see his eyes are damaged for one and to see if he's alive."

"What's he got on his eyes?" asked another medic, either he's noticing the eye contact/camera lens or the grease paint under the cowl, it's hard to say.

"Who cares?" Martinez retorted. "I want to see his face."

"What are we doing here? Let's just take it off. . ." asked another officer as he reached to grab at the Night Fury's cowl.

"That's a no-no," Bob said, half jokingly and half serious given his history as a superhero. Next to him, his wife and kids including Jack-Jack nodded in agreement.

"What why?" Astrid asked with a furrowed eyebrow.

"Because, my Vikingess from the past," Fred said dramatically. "Superheroes do not reveal their identities for their own safety from their enemies along with the safety of those they care about."

"He may be dramatic about," Hiro spoke up. "But Fred's right. Hiccup may not have family, but he is close with his butler. The Night Fury persona keeps him safe."

Understanding the explanation, Astrid and many others nodded and turned back to the screen.

"Hey!" Thuggory said before the Night Fury shot to his feet, punching the cop and the one that wanted to unmask him. Officers clamored around the vigilante as Thuggory pushed the cop back away from his ally. "Hey! Hey! Hey!" he said, separating both vigilante and the disgruntled cop. "Relax, God damn it!"

"You're protecting this guy, Thuggory?" asked the chief of police, James Bock. "He interfered with an active hostage situation. Colson's blood is on his hands."

Daemon and his family narrowed their eyes upon that accusation. They already didn't like this police force from the interactions they saw earlier, but now they really didn't like these cops, especially the chief right now.

Neither did Stoick, Gobber and Valka or Toothless. Not even Snotlout didn't like this. That's a surprise.

"Maybe it's on yours." The Night Fury retorted, giving the chief a suspicious glare. The chief narrows his eyes at the vigilante. "What'd you say?"

"He would rather die than talk. Who was he afraid of? You?" the Night Fury asked.

"He does got a point," Penny said. "Colson did say that it was the whole system involved with the corruption."

"Maybe he shouldn't have said that when he's in a room full of cops," Aegon said while drinking.

"Oh, he's going to be fine." Helena said. "Just going to need a quick dive to get away."

Suspenseful music begins playing and the chief of police steps toward the Night Fury. "You son of a bitch." he sneered. "You have any idea what kind of trouble you're in? You could be an accessory to murder."

"You know," Hiccup said to Baela and Rheana. "I wouldn't be surprised if a murder happened at Berk without our you-know-who-friends and someone accused me of murder."

"Given how the Twins had framed you multiple times in the past, that wouldn't be a surprise." Baela remarked.

"Why are we playing games. . . ?" the same officer from before tried to grab and unmask the Night Fury who spun around and punched him away. The other cops clamored, two moving to defend their fellow cop and the dragon themed vigilante shoved them both aside before Thuggory stepped in, pushing them away from his ally. "Back off! Back off!" he barked at the cops around them.

"Great, now I got you on assaulting an officer!" Chief Bock said angrily.

"You got me on assaulting three." retorted the Night Fury as he stepped forward defiantly.

"Hey!" Thuggory shouts, shoving the dragon themed vigilante to the wall and points his index finger up at him. "What's the matter with you? This isn't the way to do this!"

". . . You too now?" the Night Fury asked, eyes narrowing at his ally who seemed to be turning on him.

"What? I thought Thuggory was his friend?" Anna asked.

"Maybe he can see that his friend is acting out of line?" Elsa shrugged. "I mean, other than the accusation of murder and that one cop trying to unmask him, the Night Fury is still accusing their chief of being corrupt and wanting to challenge them."

"Let's just see how this goes," Queen Iduna said to her daughters.

"Let me handle this, Chief." Thuggory said to Chief Bock, holding eye contact with the Dragon. "Just give me a minute."

"You're gonna put yourself on the line for this scumbag, Thug?" Bock asked in anger and disgust.

"Just give me a minute." Thuggory repeated, not taking his eyes off the Night Fury who glared back. "I'll get him to cooperate."

Bock stares at Thuggory for a long silent moment before relenting and turns to everyone else. "Okay, give him the room." Slowly, everyone else began to file out of the room, some giving either Thuggory or the Night Fury a glare, either openly or discreetly. The last one to leave was the chief himself. "Two minutes." he said to Thuggory before leaving and closing the gate.

The Night Fury pushed past Thuggory and walked around the table he was on earlier. The two men circled each other before standing in the middle of the room while everyone else was watching from the hallway. "You listen to me." Thuggory said, punching the Night Fury on the chest. Since he wore armor, the blow didn't faze the dragon themed vigilante. Then Thuggory lowers his voice and whispers to the vigilante. "We got to get you out of here."

"A little close there, Thug?" Hiccup asked jokingly.

"Well I have to make it look like we're having a staring contest without them seeing my mouth move, don't I?" retorted Thuggory.

"Your mustache does that fine for you." Camicazi said.

The Night Fury rose an eyebrow under his cowl. "That would put a lot of heat on you." he whispered back in a warning tone. If the entire PD see Thuggory help a vigilante like the Night Fury, they'll likely not trust him again afterwards.

"Well, you punched me in the face." Thuggory retorted. Understanding the plan, the dragon themed vigilante scoffed in slight amusement. He was starting to trust this cop more and more.

"Take this key." Thuggory whispered, discreetly giving the Night Fury a key. He tilts his head slightly to the adjacent wall on the right of the vigilante while making it look like he and the vigilante were having a staring contest. "Through that door. Hallway to the stairs that go to the roof." he explained quietly.

"Hey, what the Hell is going on here?" asked a familiar voice in the hallway.

This perked up most of the Berkians since they recognized the voice.

The Night Fury glances to the doorway and both he and the Audience see Gruffnut Thorston walking through the crowd, nose still healing and looking around in confusion. "Hey, hey, hey, what's going on?" the blonde man asked the other cops around him.

This got most of the Audience talking.

"What's he doing there?"

"I thought he was working at that Iceberg place?"

"Iceberg? Where?" That was Bucket.

"Other Hiccup said he was off-duty."

"I thought that meant he was retired?"

"Apparently not."

"Who's the blonde with the broken nose?" the vigilante asked Thuggory.

"That's Gruffnut Thorston." Thuggory explained once he glanced over to the cop before looking back at the vigilante. "Narcotics."

"He's one of the guys I got into it with at the Iceberg Lounge." The Night Fury replied quietly.

"What are you saying? Gruffnut moonlights for the Penguin?" Thuggory asked in disbelief. He knew that most of his fellow cops were dirty, but Thorston working for the Penguin?

"Or he moonlights as a cop." replied the Night Fury as he looked out to Gruffnut who saw the vigilante looking over at him and freezes, realizing that the vigilante may recognize him. Oh, why did he choose tonight to go back on duty?

"It was at this moment, Gruffnut knew, he messed up," Wilbur said dramatically. Violet and Dash snickered.

Thuggory then glanced over to Thorston before the Night Fury suddenly punched him in the face, knocking him off his feet. The Dragon makes a break for the other door in the room. He opens it and closes it, using the key to lock it. "Jesus Christ!" exclaimed Chief Bock.

"You owe me one, Haddock!" Thuggory said to Hiccup.

"I'll pay you back later, much, much later," Hiccup snarked.

"Go!" Martinez exclaimed and then he and the others, except Gruffnut who remained where he was, ran into the room. Thuggory got to his feet, rubbing his face, acting more surprised than he felt while others tried to open the other door, only to find out it was locked. The chief reaches to grab his keys.

Dramatic music rises in volume as the Night Fury races through the hallway. The Audience see many cops racing down another hallway after him. "Somebody stop him!" A cop shouted.

"You'll never take him alive!" Rhino shouted, or squeaked in the ears of the human Audience.

The Night Fury reaches the stair well and holds up his right hand and his grappling hook folded out. He aims and fires and lets the gadget carry him up to the top floor. Meanwhile, cops arrive on each floor around him and shoot at him. But luckily, his bulletproof armor held up against their gunfire. On one of the floors he passed, more cops ran out the door and after him.

"Damn, it's like every cop in the city is after him," Daenerys said with raised eyebrows.

"Oh, trust me, Daenerys," spoke up the Host. Gojira points a claw at the screen. "This is one of the more tame scenarios where the cops chase the vigilante."

"Oh, that's reassuring," Daemon remarked in a dry tone.

The Night Fury shoves his way through the door that leads to the outside. He races over to the ledge of the roof. He freezes, gasping upon seeing how high up he was from the ground. Composing himself, he pulls a string and his cape suddenly closes on his body like a jacket. He then zips and buckles it shut.

Stoick and Gobber furrow their brows. "What's he doing?"

The people from the modern day understood what the Night Fury's suit was and were impressed while those from the Viking Age were still confused.

"Don't worry," Tooth said from where she sat. "Everything's going to be fine."

Just then, the cops all run onto the roof behind him.

"There he is!"

"Freeze!"

Some cops reach towards him but the dragon themed vigilante jumps off the ledge and down the near four hundred foot drop.

"What? What's he doing?!"

"That fool! He's going to die!"

"HICCUP!"

To the surprise and relief of the Audience, the vigilante doesn't drop like a rock. Instead, he begins to glide through the air upon his descent. The Night Fury grits his teeth as he glides between two buildings, steering to avoid colliding with the walls on the left of him.

"What?! He's flying?!"

"Hiccup's flying!" Toothless roared out in joy.

"More like he's falling," Penny remarked before Hiro completed her saying, "With style." The two looked at one another in surprise before smiling at one another.

Hiccup himself was surprised. "By the gods, I-I thought of making something like this, but I never thought it would actually work."

This gets Hiro and those from San Fransokyo's attention. "You're an inventor?"

Hiccup hesitated due to years of his village rejecting his ideas before nodding his head. ". . . I, uh, could show you guys later." He proposed. He was surprised by how the people from the future accepted either excitedly (Fred mainly with Hiro and Honey Lemon) or nonchalantly (Wasabi and Go Go.)

Baela and Rheana smiled, happy that their brother was getting more friends.

From a bird's eye view, the vigilante looks less of a dragon and more like a flying squirrel gliding through the air.

"That honestly looks a little ridiculous," Eugene stated. "He should've kept the dragon wings look."

"I'm sure he'll take your advice to heart," Rapunzel rolled her eyes.

The vigilante descends lower until he sees that he's heading towards a train bridge. He pulls a rope and a parachute shoots out behind him. Unfortunately, he pulled too late. The parachute hooks onto the bridge, causing him to swing up to crash into a street lamp under the bridge, bounce off and collide with the roof of a city bus and then he bounced off a parked car and rolls across the sidewalk, knocking down a couple of garbage cans before rolling to a stop.

"Ooh!"

"Ouch!"

"That look like it hurt!"

"You think?"

"Do it again!" Tuffnut and Ruffnut said before they started arguing. "Actually, let me have a turn, I want to fly like that. I want to go first! No, I'm going first!"

Grunting and groaning in pain, the Dragon rose up on shaky legs before he turned around and limps to the dark alleyway. He'll work on that flying and definitely work on that landing in case he does it again.

"Well, I'll work on that," Hiccup said jokingly.

The scene changed to show the Night Fury looking out over the city, cape back over his shoulders, standing close to the Dragon Signal. He and the Audience hear the elevator doors open and Thuggory is shown walking out the elevator. He gives the dragon themed vigilante a dry look. "Could have at least pulled that punch, man."

"I did." the Night Fury said in an almost humorous tone that bordered on matter of fact.

"Maybe pull it back more next time," Thuggory deadpaned.

"No promises," Hiccup snarked.

"Oh now I'm concerned if I'm ever punched by you," Thuggory said playfully.

"Relax, Thug. I'm not punching you or anyone just for the fun of it." Hiccup assured. "Besides, I doubt my punch will do anything."

"Bock put out an APB on you." Thuggory said, straight to business. He looks at the vigilante. "You really think he's in on this?"

"I don't trust any of 'em. Do you?" the Night Fury asked in response.

"I only trust you." Thuggory replied truthfully without hesitation.

"Thanks, Thug."

"No prob, Hic."

"What's a narcotics cop doing with Falcone's right-hand man?" the Dragon asked, going on to the next question.

"Colson said, "Cops protect the rat."" Thuggory replied thoughtfully. "Maybe Thorston's part of it."

"You think Penguin's the rat?" the Dragon asked.

"His club caters to the mob." Thuggory explained. "Bludvist practically lived there. Penguin would have been privy to a lot of dirt. DA was a regular too." He looks thoughtfully. "Maybe Penguin got himself into a jam and working a deal was his only way out."

"The Rata Alada." The Night Fury said next. Thuggory looks at him in confusion. "The what?" he asked.

"Riddler's latest. The cipher in the maze." The Fury explained, recalling that he didn't tell this to his ally. "It means 'a rat with wings.' Like a stool pigeon."

"A penguin's got wings too." Thuggory said thoughtfully. It was a good theory.

The Night Fury looks back out to the skyline of Berk. "Time for me to have another conversation with me." he declared.

"How about you sneak inside this time?" Stoick suggested. "Avoid fighting?"

"Ha, sorry, Stoick," Gojira snorted. Not at all apologetic. "But this Night Fury wants the smoke."

". . . What?" the Berk chief asked with a furrowed brow.

"It means he wants the fight." Wilbur explained.

"What about the Riddler? He's gonna kill again." Thuggory asked and warned. He wasn't looking forward to another victim of the Riddler when the Riddler was now starting to blow people up.

"It's all connected." The Night Fury replied, still looking out to the city. "Like it or not, it's his game now. You want to find Riddler, we gotta find that rat."

The scene changed to show the street outside the Iceberg Lounge. A subway train passes over above. The view changes to the perspective from inside a car through the windshield. "Gruffnut and the Twins, coming your way." The voice of Thuggory is head over a radio. The mentioned people are barely seen through the rain and the foggy windshield. "There's Penguin. I wonder what's in the bags." Thuggory was now shown, watching the criminals, a walkie-talkie radio in hand. "You want to move in?"

His ally was silent for a moment before answering. "Let's follow."

"Stealth mode," Fred said, looking side to side with a eager grin. He leans to his friends. "Maybe we should take notes for our own missions."

Hiro and the others rolled their eyes in response but he had a point. Big Hero 6 just started getting the hang of being superheroes. This Night Fury had been in action for two years. Maybe they could learn something.

Violet and Dash were thinking the same thing.

The scene changed to what is known as Waterfront Street just as the caravans driven by the criminals arrive. "They stopped at Waterfront Street." Thuggory informed his ally on the radio. "The recycling plant." he added as he watches the scene from his car that is parked a little ways across the street.

"I'm here." replied the Night Fury and the view changes to show the dragon themed vigilante standing on the roof of the mentioned building. He watches the Penguin and his men get out of the caravan and hears the conversation between them from where he stands.

"How you doing?" Savage asked.

"Yeah, good. How are you?" Tuffnut replied and asked in response.

"Good, good." Savage replied. "Let's get in out of this deluge."

The Night Fury turns around and walks towards one of the recycling plant's skylight windows. He looks inside and sees masked chemists in work. Creating what looks like gummy candy. But the Dragon knows better. "It's a drug lab. Drops." he said to his radio. "This is a buy."

"Oh great, then we can bust it," Fred said eagerly.

The scene changes to Thuggory who stares at the warehouse with narrowed eyes. His mind thinks of an explanation before he replies. "Looks like they got Bludvist's operation up and running again."

"That's not good," Daenerys said.

"Or they never shut it down at all." retorted the Night Fury, thinking of another theory.

"Or that." Helen said.

"What are you saying?" Thuggory asked, incredulous and disbelief. "The biggest drug bust in BCPD history was a fraud?"

Before he could reply, the Night Fury hears the sound of a familiar engine. He walks to the back of the recycling plant and both he and the Audience see a motorcycle park in between two shipping trucks. The rider gets off the bike and takes off their helmet, revealing a familiar cat like mask. It was Catwoman. "This just got complicated." The Night Fury says to the radio.

"Oh boy," Hiccup said.

"You can say that again." Thuggory said.

"Oh relax boys," Camicazi said. "It's me."

"That's why we're concerned."

"What do you mean?" Thuggory asked in confusion.

The scene changes to show the Thorston Twins standing guard in the rain. With the heavy rain, Tuffnut didn't hear Catwoman sneak up to him before the Audience hear the sound of a chain jiggling before Tuffnut falls out of view.

"Oh come on!" Tuffnut exclaimed.

"Ha!" Ruffnut mocked her brother.

Ruffnut sees her brother fall down and jogs over to where he fell. "Hey! What happened?" she asked in concern and on edge, looking around for Tuffnut. "You alright?" She hears the sound of a chain jiggling and the Audience see Catwoman walk out behind the female Thorston who turns around to see her.

Before Ruffnut could react, she was whacked in the face by Catwoman's chain whip before she is roundhouse kicked in the face by the cat burglar and falls down.

"Oh come on!" Ruffnut exclaimed.

"Ha-Ha-Ha!" Tuffnut mocked his sister.

"Wow, taken out by a girl," Snotlout shook his head. Just then a knife flew by his face making him squeak.

"Care to say that again, Jorgenson?" asked Camicazi, twirling a knife in her hand. Baela had a crossbow aimed and ready as did Merida with her bow and arrow. Rapunzel had a frying pan in hand.

Catwoman rolls her chain whip as she walks to the back of one of the SUV's. She unzips one of the bags and the Audience see that the bag was filled with money. Lots of money. As the cat thief smiles to herself, the Night Fury walked up to her from the shadows without her or the Audience noticing until he was right next to the cat thief. "Dangerous crowd you're stealing from." he remarked dryly.

Catwoman jolted at the unexpected voice before seeing who it was. "Jesus." Camicazi scoffed in annoyance and she asked cynically, "Is this how you get your kicks, hon? Sneaking up on girls in the dark?"

"Is that why you work in the club?" the Night Fury asked in a condensing tone. "It was all just a score?"

"You know, I would love to sit and go over every gory detail with you, Dragon boy. . ." Camicazi replied, half annoyance and half coyly as she puts the money bag on the ground by her feet. "But, uh, those assholes are coming back." she unzips the second bag, but it was not money inside but the body of Annika Konsolov, Cami's roommate.

Everyone all sombered at the sight of the dead woman on the screen and felt sympathetic to Camicazi's counterpart.

"Well. . . that's unfortunate." Viggo said plainly.

"She died with fear," Pitch Black said, sounding a bit pleased by that.

Camicazi froze upon seeing her friend's lifeless expression and the Night Fury looked at the bag and his eyes widen in surprise. The moment of silence is broken by the sound of gunfire.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

"By the gods, give us a warning next time!"

"You ruined the moment!"

Camicazi ducks down in instinct while the Night Fury is shot in multiple places across his chest and twice on his head, he lifts one arm up to shield his exposed jaw before dropping to the ground.

"Hiccup!"/"Hiccup!"

"Jesus!" Thuggory exclaimed as he saw what happened and he drives closer, his arrival gaining the attention of the criminals who all are armed with sub-machine guns, including the Savage Penguin. Lieutenant Meathead opens his door and hides behind it like Astrid and Hiccup had during the final exam of Dragon Training, pulling his gun out and returning fire at the criminals. Camicazi looks at the body of the dragon themed vigilante who is barely moving. Her eyes widen and her jaw drops in concern and fear that the symbol of Vengeance and Fear was finally gunned down after two years of fighting criminals.

"Take them down, Thuggory!"

"Shoot them, Lad!"

"Is Hiccup okay?"

"He's barely moving. . ." Stoick said in a worried tone.

The Penguin fires at Thuggory before he walks around the SUV while his men continue to fire at Thuggory, forcing the cop to duck down. Savage cocks his sub-machine gun as he approaches where he saw the Night Fury.

"Hey, Vengeance!" he shouts, firing at the SUV, forcing Camicazi to scoot away in fear. "You think you can come after my money, huh?" he asked angrily. He walks around the left back corner of the car before looking at the spot on the ground where the Night Fury only to see no body of the vigilante nor any blood. Unaware of this, Camicazi continues to scoot back, hoping against hope that the Penguin won't look at her hiding spot.

Just then a roar of an engine was heard from the shadows behind the Savage Penguin.

While the sound surprised everyone, the people from the Age of Vikings, well. . .

"NIGHT FURY!"

"GET DOWN!"

Enough said.

Soon everyone from Berk, including Mildew, and King Fergus, Dagur, Bertha, Camicazi, Thuggory, Alvin and the Outcasts all ducked to the floor or hid behind their seats for cover and silence passed for a long moment while everyone else looked at them in confusion. The Dragon Hunters didn't react in fear however. They were intrigued, especially Drago and Grimmel.

Rhaenyra and the Targaryens and the Velaryion Dragon Rider all looked to Daemon and Laena who all looked amused at the Vikings' reactions. "I'll explain later," Daemon said in High Valerian.

"Was that what I think it is?" Eret, Son of Eret asked under his breath.

Meanwhile up in the Dragons Balcony, Toothless sneezed after breathing deeply. The dragons looked at him as he wiped his nostrils with his paw.

"Some Vikings this lot is," E. Aster snarked with a snort.

"Uh, Dad? Why'd you react like that?" Merida asked her father.

"Sorry, lass, thought I heard a bloody Night Fury." Fergus said.

"Night Fury?" Jack Frost repeated. "You mean there's a dragon called a Night Fury?"

"Aye," Stoick answered in a grim tone. "Of all the dragons known to man, the Night Fury is the most destructive and dangerous."

"Speed unknown, size unknown," Fishlegs said next, speaking as if talking about the dragon was too much for him and his fear. "The Unholy Offspring of Lightning and Death."

"In our Dragon Manual, Bork the Bold only wrote one warning should any Viking face such a dragon, young warrior or seasoned veteran: Hide and pray it does not find you." Gobber spoke dramatically. "No one has ever met one and lived to tell the tale in our history. We do not know what a Night Fury looks like, only that it makes a sound like the one we just heard on the moving wall right now before attacking with purple fire powerful enough to destroy a catapult and render it useless."

"I fear no man," Fergus declared to Merida, her brothers and Elinor. "But that dragon, it scares me."

Most of the younger Audiences, Rapunzel, Anna, Violet, Dash, Wasabi and even Jack-Jack shuddered visibly while Elsa was doing everything to not show fear or her powers would be revealed. Penny, Hiro and Wilbur swallowed a lump in their throats.

". . . That does sound frightening," Honey Lemon said.

"Honestly, more badass actually," Fred said and Go Go nodded in agreement before she realized that she probably shouldn't be agreeing with Fred in this instance when the subject of conversation was a dangerous creature.

"Huh, sounds like the sort of beast Pitch Black would use as a steed," North commented to the other Guardians.

"I tried and it didn't really work," the Boogeyman said from the Villains Balcony. "Just because the Night Furies are the Viking Symbol of Fear and Death, does not mean they are the Avatar of such things." This intrigued the Dragon Hunters nearby and Dagur who wanted to know more from Pitch Black.

This confused most of the Vikings but Hiccup and those from modern times understood what the Boogeyman said.

Astrid then realized something. Out of all the Vikings, Hiccup and the Targaryen sisters were the only ones that didn't duck for cover or even looked afraid at what they all thought was the screech of a Night Fury. The three teens were just sitting back, relaxed and casual and if anything, they looked amused. Even Daemon and Laena were the same.

The blonde shield maiden narrowed her eyes at this. Even if they were the top students of Dragon Training Class, they should have reacted like everyone else. Even Stoick the Vast reacted in fear of the call of the Night Fury.

Astrid was getting more questions put to her head and it was driving her up the wall!

Back on the screen, the Audience and the criminals see the silhouette of a black muscle car roaring to life, a blue flame igniting at the large thruster in the back of the car. Flames flickered at the afterburners on the side and from the hood as the engine is heard revving like a growling beast. Catwoman poked her head out of her hiding spot to see it. Thuggory looked over to the car in surprise and awe. The Audience glimpse at the car's back thruster before seeing the face of Savage as he looked at the car with wide eyes as he realized who was driving the car.

The Savage Penguin turned away and barked, "Gruffnut! Get the money!" to his mention lackey as Catwoman ran to where she parked her motorcycle before getting into his car, starting the engine and then he started driving just as Gruffnut had picked up the bags of money and moved to give them to Savage.

"Hey! What the. . . ?!" Gruffnut exclaimed indignantly at being abandoned by his boss before the Dragonmobile drove past him and the other criminals after the Penguin. Just then Catwoman zoomed past Gruffnut, barely grazing him and knocking him down. The cat thief circled around him, making Gruffnut crawl back in fear of getting hit, but instead Catwoman reached down to grab one of the bags of money. Gruffnut tried to stop her but the cat thief drove out of his reach.

Camicazi then flicked her helmet's visor over her eyes with her finger.

"Now it's time for a thrilling car chase!" Fred cheered.

"Hopefully not too much thrilling," Wasabi muttered.

"Hopefully it won't be like how our own was when you were driving." Go Go retorted.

Epic, heroic chase music played in the background as Savage zoomed down the street through the Waterfront with the Night Fury and his Dragonmobile racing after him. The mobster looks back to his pursuer briefly before looking ahead. He takes a hard left and the Dragonmobile continues driving down the other street.

Savage grunts with effort as he drives down the road. The Audience then see the face of the Night Fury as his car's engine revvs and then he skids to turn around and drive down a ramp that led to a dead end. Or so it seemed. Turned out on the other side of the wall was the road that Savage was on. And with heroic music, the Dragonmobile drove through the wall. "Whoa!" Savage cried out in surprise. He looks at his review mirror before the Audience see in his point of view, "Come on! Come on!" Savage taunted before the Dragonmobile drives up and rams against the Penguin's bumper.

"This guy's crazy! Hahahaha!" Savage chortled before the Dragonmobile rammed into him again. "Come on! Hey!" The two then drove under an overpass before the Penguin began to serpentine in front of the Dragonmobile to prevent it from passing him. This worked for about thirty seconds before the Dragonmobile drove up to the driver side door of his car. Savage reached grab his sub-machine gun on the passenger seat and fire at the vigilante's car through his window.

Unfortunately for him, and to the relief of some members of the Audience, the Dragonmobile had bulletproof glass windows that while cracked, withstood against the gunfire while the bullets richochet off the window.

HONK! HONK! HONK!

"Oh, that's not good," Daemons said with widening eyes as he sees what's on the screen.

The mobster and vigilante's attention was pulled to the front of them and through their point of view, the Audience see a semi-truck driving on the left side of the road. The same side that the vigilante was driving on. Said vigilante looked over at the Savage Penguin who stared back at him before taking a hard right onto a street that led to a highway bridge. The Night Fury steered to the left, driving around the semi-truck, turning around on the flip of a dime and then driving onto the same road the Penguin took while avoiding collision with the other streets.

"Move!" Savage shouted as if the other people could hear him from the inside of their cars and over the ran as he drove on the wrong side of the highway, luckily not causing any incidents. Either he was being a careful driver for a mobster or the people in front of him were professionals that knew how to avoid colliding with each other.

"Wow, I'm surprised no one's crashed yet, I'm gonna lie-" Wasabi said before-

This changed when he was forced to skid to a halt and his car became a stopping block for the other car. Thankfully neither cars or their passengers were damaged in any way, but that wasn't the Penguin's main concern.

"Nevermind." Wasabi sighed to himself. Honey Lemon patted him on the shoulder.

It was the black armored supercar that was racing towards him.

Stepping on the gas, Savage drove as fast as his car could drive before he saw a gap in the dividers that allowed him to drive to the right side of the highway. The Night Fury followed his example. There may be some distance between the two of them, but the Dragon was determined to change that. He was not letting the mobster escape.

Said mobster was weaving between cars and trucks, honking his horn at the driving pedestrians. Especially when he came between two semi trucks and a Suburban was in front of him."Get out of the way!" Savage shouted as if that would give him any leeway. The Audience then see the Dragonmobile quickly closing the distance. "Come on!"

"I don't think shouting's going to help you Savage," Alvin remarked.

"Well, at least I'm trying." Savage muttered.

Upon seeing how close the vigilante was, the Penguin rammed the Suburban and pushed the car out of his way and into the front of the semi truck on his right. Only to end up behind a trio of semi-trucks. "Get out of the way!" He shouted before looking back and seeing how close the Dragonmobile was getting. He looks at his mirror to the headlights of the semi-truck behind him.

Slowly, it began to dawn what the mobster was thinking.

"He wouldn't!" protested Penny.

Savage narrowed his eyes before yelling and then slamming on the brakes abruptly and the semi-truck bounced off his rear bumper and the driver lost control and ended up bumping into the semi-trucks around him.

"He would," Hiro deadpanned.

"Oh Lord, I hope they all have insurance," Susan Forester muttered. And they're not hurt too seriously, she wanted to add, but she knew chances of that were slim.

This caused a domino effect of all the vehicles experiencing a huge crash. Like the beginning of Cars without cartoon humor.

The Night Fury saw the trailer of the semi-truck next to him was starting to tilt to his direction and slammed on the brakes, avoided getting flattened by the trailer but was rammed from a car behind him, causing him grunt from the impact. He then swerved between the wrecking cars and semis, bouncing off one trailer. The Dragon growled, gritting his teeth before he pushing a lever forward and then the thruster at the back of his car ignited like a rocket and he blasted towards a trailer that looked like a makeshift ramp among the wreckage.

The Savage Penguin sees the semi-trucks falling down before one of the gas trucks combusted, causing an explosion to ignite through all the wrecked trucks and other vehicles. "Ha! AHA-HAHAHAHA!" Savage laughed triumphantly. He did it! He had done it! He had defeated and killed the vigilante that has struck fear in the hearts of criminals. "Ha! I got you!" he declared tauntingly and jovially. "I got you! Take that, you friggin' psycho!"

"Says the psycho!" Astrid snapped. "You just caused a massive wreck and put lives in danger!"

"It wouldn't have happened if the lad didn't chase him to begin with," Mildew scoffed.

"Now hold on here, Mildew," Stoick began but then Hiccup spoke up.

"No, he's right." He gagged in disgust. "Eugh. Never want to say that again. But he's right. If my counterpart didn't give Savage time to get into his car and drive, this massive wreck wouldn't have happened."

"He's got a point." Bob said. "Him wanting the smoke or the chase in this case is what led to this car wreck. Hopefully, he'll learn to do better in the future."

"I got you!"

"I think ya 'ight've jinxed yerself here, Savage," Alvin said.

"Sadly, I think you're right," Savage sighed.

Savage laughed before he sees in his mirror, the Dragonmobile flying out through the explosion. Eyes widening, Savage turned around to see the black supercar landing on the highway in slow motion with its right wheel on fire like a Ghost Rider owned vehicle before ramming against the Penguin's bumper with enough force to send the Penguin flying through the air.

"Ha! You should've seen your face!" Dagur laughed before pausin and looking at Savage. "Oh wait, you can! HAHAHAHA!"

Savage glared at the Berserker chief before slumping when everyone else around him were laughing. Mainly in mockery, save for Ryker, Viggo, Drago and Krogan.

The villains weren't the only ones laughing. The dragons were laughing and the Good Guys.

"HAHAHAHAHA! You were saying?" Jack chortled with other teens.

"The Night Fury's got you now, Penguin!" Dash cheered and Jack-Jack clapped his hands.

Savage let out whimpers of fear as his car rolled in the air, objects flying around him from the floor, luckily the mobster had the sense to put his seat belt on before the screen changed to watch the car land and roll on the road, thankfully not landing on any civilians that were now driving away from the scene.

The view changed back inside the car as if the camera man was in the backseat, experiencing everything with Savage as metal was heard creaking, glass shattering before the car came to a stop with a loud crash.

Then the Audience watch the Savage Penguin hanging upside down in his car as he looks out the window of his crashed car. The Audience then see the Night Fury stepping out of his Dragonmobile from the upside down perspective of Savage Cobb as the Dragon walks towards him, dark, dramatic and menacing music began playing in the background, sounding like a fushion of the Imperial March with the Batman theme with his cape flapping and the massive wreckage burning behind him and his car. The perspective changed twice between Savage's upside down view to the normal rightside up view with the boots of the Night Fury in the foreground, the light from the fire and the darkness of the night gave the Night Fury a majestic yet menacing appearance as he walked to the Savage Penguin.

"Well, that view's intimidating."

"You can say again."

"I think I'll be seeing that in my nightmares."

"The music gives me goosebumps."

The music rose in volume as the dragon themed vigilante got closer and closer before he leans into Savage's line of sight. The mobster opens and closes his mouth as if trying to say something but was too struck with fear to say anything.

"What's the matter?" Hiccup asked mockingly. "Scared?"

The scene changed with a grunt from Savage, the mobster's head covered with a black bag as he was pushed against a concrete wall before the bag was pulled off his head. He pants heavily in fear at seeing the Night Fury standing in front of him and then he and the Audience see Thuggory walking towards him from his police car. "What the Hell is this?" he asked angrily and in fear, looking between Thuggory and the Dragon. "Good cop, batshit cop?"

"Ooh! I love this game!" Fred said.

"Yo mean there's a game actually called 'Good cop, batshit cop?" Fishlegs asked. This get most of the teens from the future to laugh or chuckle in amusement while the princesses and princes looked at the Ingerman boy in confusion.

"No! It's called 'Good cop, Bad cop,'" Helen said. "They're two methods of interrogation. 'Good cop' implies that the cop acts all friendly, sympathetic and understanding to the criminal. Some even offer a drink or snack to the criminal."

"And 'Bad cop' refers to the cop being cold, harsh and unsympathetic to the criminal," Bob explained next. "Acting intimidating and giving threats."

"Oh, okay, I see." Fishlegs said, now realizing that the answer should have been obvious.

"Who's the Riddler?" the Night Fury demanded.

"Riddler? How should I know?" Savage asked in response in confusion.

"Let's make it easy for you, Sav." Thuggory said, not believing the gangster was telling the truth. "Cops caught you doing something. They were gonna shut you down, put you away. So you gave up a bigger fish to save your ass."

The Night Fury gives Savage a monotone glare and speaks in a matching tone. "You ratted out Drago Bludvist. His drops operation."

"But the cops, the city officials, the mayor, the DA, they got greedy, right?" Thuggory continued. The mobster looked back and forth between the cop and dragon themed vigilante. "Wasn't enough, a big career-making bust. They wanted to take over the drops business too, but they needed a minor league mope like you to run it."

"It's funny how the Penguin's all looking back and forth, confused like some puppy or child," Hiro snickered. Then he pauses. "But I guess that means they got the wrong guy."

"You don't just work for Alvin Falcone." stated the Night Fury. "You work for them too."

"What are you, crazy?" Savage asked angrily.

"That why you killed the girl?" Thuggory accused.

"I didn't kill no girl!"

"We know she worked for you at the 44 Below." The Night Fury spoke to him monotonously.

"But she got too close, right?" Thuggory assumed. "Found out from Larvson that you were the rat, so you killed her. But somehow Riddler found out too." He adds on, shaking his head slightly with slight amusement. He leans forward to the mobster. "He knows so much about you, you must know know about him."

"Who is he?" the Night Fury demanded.

"Boy, you guys are a Hell of a duet here. Why don't you start harmonizing?" Savage asked mockingly. "There's just one problem with your little scenario, okay? I AIN'T NO RAT!" he shook his head and raised his voice near the end of his statement. "You got any idea what Alvin Falcone would do to me if he heard this kind of talk?"

"Oh, you don't wanna talk about rats, huh?" Thuggory asked angrily before pulling out the photo of the deceased Pete Savage's mangled face. "Maybe we can talk about what they did to my partner's face." he said coldly.

"Okay, that's graphic," Alicent Hightower said while Prince Aegon gagged and Helena turned away.

"Holy God, what are you showing me here?" Savage cried out, turning his head away in disgust. "This was around his head!" Thuggory said.

"Come on!" Savage grimaced at the photo.

"OPEN YOUR EYES!" Thuggory shouted near the top of his lungs, silencing the Savage Penguin as his voice echoes through the abandoned parking lot. After a moment of composing himself, Thuggory then asked, "Are you El Rata Alada?"

"El Rata Alada?" Savage repeated, furrowing his brow.

"Yeah, a 'rat with wings.' A stool pigeon." Thuggory explained. "That's not you? The symbols in the maze, right here. It says you are El Rata Alada." He holds up a photo of the mentioned maze and its cipher message.

""You are El Rata"? It says that?" Savage asked, sounding genuinely curious.

"Why, you got something to tell us?" Thuggory retorted.

"Yeah!" Savage replied before speaking nonchalantly. "It's, like, the worst Spanish I've ever heard."

.

.

.

Penny suddenly breaks into chuckles. "Sorry," she said when she saw the others staring at her. "It's just so quiet."

Both cop and dragon themed vigilante look at him, now confused and caught off guard. "What?" Thuggory asked.

"It's "La."" Savage replied, now looking at Thuggory with a mocking grin. ""La" rata. What, is this Riddler stupid or something?" he asked incredulously. "Jesus! Look at you two. World's Greatest Detectives!" he declared mockingly, looking at the Night Fury with a glare. "Am I the only one here who knows the difference between "el" and "la"? Jesus! No habla espanol, fellas?"

"I know this may be surprising," North spoke up. "But he's right. The correct term is 'La.'"

Hiccup furrowed his brow as he recalled something else. "Gobber's counterpart did say that the Riddler's Spanish wasn't perfect."

"So, was that intentional then?" Hiro said. "Because when you take Spanish, that's one of the first things you learn."

"Do me a favor, shithead, shut up!" Thuggory retorted, now fed up with the mobster's attitude. He looks to the Night Fury with a furrowed brow. "You think he made a mistake?"

"He doesn't make mistakes." the Night Fury replied, the cogs turning in his head.

"A rat with wings?" Savage repeated mockingly. Looking between Thuggory and the Dragon before gesturing both his tied hands to the dragon themed vigilante. "You know what that sounds like to me? A freaking bat-lizard like you! Huh? You ever think of that?" he asked.

"You are El Rata." the Night Fury said more to himself than to the cop or the mobster. He narrows his eyes thoughtfully. ". . . You . . . Are . . . El . . ."

It was then that Hiro understood it and snapped his fingers. "He was right, it wasn't a mistake. It was intentional."

"But for what?" Dash asked.

"U. R. L!" Wilbur exclaimed.

The scene changed to show the Night Fury's laptop opening up with the search bar saying 'Enter URL.' The Dragon entered ' .com.' and the web page opened up to a completely black web page.

"OOOHHHH!" said all the teens and adults from the modern time with the Guardian spirits.

Many of the Vikings looked at them in confusion before deciding it was a future thing they wouldn't understand.

"Maybe it was a mistake." Thuggory said after a moment, sounding close to defeat. "Maybe he isn't as smart as-"

BEEP

The computer made a noise. "-Wait." The Night Fury said. The Audience then see what was now on the black screen in green.

?

"Is that him?" Thuggory asked his ally before the computer BEEPED and a question was asked.

DID YOU FIND HIM?

"Holy shit." Thuggory declared before the Night Fury typed a response.

"Holy shit is right," Bob said before he was elbowed by his wife.

"No cursing in front of the kids," Helen hissed.

"Oh, right. Sorry."

EL RATA ALADA?

YES.

MAYBE, IS A PENGUIN A RAT WITH WINGS?

INTERESTING.

YOU'RE MISSING THE BIG PICTURE

"What the Hell does that mean?" Thuggory asked impatiently. "Is he or isn't he?"

"I guess not."

"But if it's not the Penguin, then who?"

"Who's the rat with wings?"

"I need answers!"

I NEED TO SHOW YOU MORE FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND

MY NEXT VICTIM IS THE BIGGEST PIECE OF THE PUZZLE YET.

"Oh great, more victims!"

"Just what we need."

"Just peachy."

"Peaches? I want peaches!" That was Bucket and he got his peaches. "Ooh! Thank you!"

VICTIM? DEAD?

? ? ? HE WILL BE SOON.

HERE'S A CLUE TO WHERE YOU CAN FIND HIM. . .

"Please, not another riddle."

"Too late," the Host declared, knowing what was coming.

"Damn it!"

"I grew up from a seed, tough as a weed." Thuggory asked, furrowing his brow as he read the riddle on the computer. "But in a mansion, in a slum, I'll never know where I come from. Do you know what I am?" He looks at the vigilante with a raised eyebrow. "Any idea?"

"Yeah. . . it's an orphan." the Night Fury replied slowly after a moment before typing his answer.

AN ORPHAN?

? ? ? GOOD BYE.

"Oh come on!"

"A mansion in a slum." The Night Fury repeated the segment in thought before turning to Thuggory. "He's talking about the old orphanage."

"But Berk doesn't have an orphanage."

"Must be a future thing."

"Yeah, almost all major cities have them," Hiro explained to those Vikings.

"The one that burned down?" Thuggory asked.

"It was part of the Haddock estate." The Dragon explained. "They donated it after they built the tower."

"Let's go." Thuggory said, turning to his car.

The Night Fury closes his laptop and walks toward his Dragonmobile right past the still tied up Savage Cob. "You guys realize I'm still here, right?" Savage asked flatly. He holds up his tied up wrists. "You gonna untie me?" The mobster then proceeds to waddle after the two like an actual penguin. "How the Hell am I supposed to get out of here?"

The cop and vigilante ignore him and get inside their respective cars. "Hey!" They start to drive away, leaving him in the abandoned parking lot of the rundown hotel.

"YOU GOD DAMN SONS OF BiTCHES!" shouted the Savage Penguin.

Most people laughed in amusement while Savage sputtered. "Hey! They couldn't have just left me there!"

"Anyone else feel a bit sorry for him?" Rapunzel asked, conflicted.

"Eh, My pity well's dried up for him," Merida shrugged. "Besides, the lad caused a big car wreck not too long ago."

"Besides, I'm sure he's going to be fine." Anna said dismissively.

"Unfortunately." Gojira muttered.

The duo arrived at the abandoned, burned down orphanage. The view changed from the inside before the Night Fury kicked the doors open, Thuggory by his side. Both men held a flashlight in their hands. The first thing they saw, other than the rotting walls, peeling paint and barely visible cobwebs, with the smell of mildew, there was one word painted on the wall in front of them in dark green: WELCOME

"Well, it's nice he left a welcome mat for us." Hiccup said sarcastically.

"Shame he wasn't there to welcome you in," Jack said in the same sarcastic tone.

"Or to give you snacks," Hiro added.

Thuggory pulls out his gun and cocks the hammer, ready for anything. The Night Fury turns his head to him slightly. "No guns." he said sternly.

"Yeah, man. That's your thing." Thuggory said sarcastically in response.

The cop and the Dragon slowly and quietly up the stairs and down the hallway. They didn't say anything for a long moment before Thuggory saw something in the darkness in front of him. "What's that?" he asked before he, his ally and the Audience see someone standing in the hallway before them. The music turns eerie and chilly as the person runs out of the light and into a room. "Hey! Hey!" Thuggory shouted as he and the Night Fury ran over to the doorway.

"FBI, freeze!" Fred shouted dramatically.

"It's the Feds, every man for himself!" Wilbur shouted as he got up and ran across the theater. Everyone watched him run and then Fred ran after him.

"You are under arrest!"

"You'll never take me alive!"

Violet then discreetly formed a force field and tossed in front of the two running boys. Both Wilbur and Fred hit the force field and bounced off it, the energy of the field surged through them and made their hairs stand up on end.

Wilbur slowly sat up with wide eyes. "What was that?" he asked, looking around.

"Wow, that was tingly!" Fred said, shuddering. He looks over to his friends. "You guys got to try that."

"Yeah, that sure looked fun," Go Go said sarcastically.

Dash and his family looked to Violet who was whistling with an innocent look. She sees their stares. "What?" she asked innocently.

And they find the room is filled with abandoned bed frames and a group of men and women with numb expressions either sitting on the bed frames or standing up not acknowledging the cop and the dragon themed vigilante. It was hard for both men to figure out who these people were. "Dropheads." Thuggory said in disgust.

It was then both men and the Audience could faintly hear "Ave Maria" playing through the hallway, sang by a children's choir. Both Thuggory and the Night Fury turn to the direction they hear the singing coming from. "What the Hell is that?" Thuggory asked.

The duo walked further down the hallway before walking to another hallway and across from them was another message on the two doors in dark green: WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

"Well, ain't that ominous?"

"The song was sung earlier but now it doesn't sound so angelic at the moment."

Soon the choir stopped singing and the sound of applause was heard before a man's voice was heard speaking. One that the Night Fury and the Audience from Berk were very familiar with. "Thank you. Thank you so much. Wasn't that beautiful?" It was Stoick Haddock. Both Thuggory and the Night Fury walked into what looked to be a cafeteria. Most of the tables and chairs were sprawled across the floor and against the wall with one in the middle the room with a video projector on it that was projecting twenty year old footage of Stoick Haddock giving a speech to start his mayoral campaign on the wall. "Thank you all. Thank you, uh. . . Thank you for coming today." Stoick's voice said before the image of his face is shown, facing his audience."I believe in Berk. I believe in its promise."

Hiccup and plenty of others furrowed their brows at hearing and seeing Stoick's counterpart. On one hand, what did this mean for the Riddler? On the other hand, Stoick without a beard didn't look right.

"But too many have been left behind for too long, and that's why I'm here today." Stoick went on to declare. "To announce, not only my candidacy for mayor, but also the creation of the Berk Renewal Fund." He added as Thuggory and the Night Fury watch the video. "Win or lose, the Haddock Foundation pledges a $1 billion donation to start a charitable endowment for public works." It was here that the dragon themed vigilante saw a message on the left wall next to him, barely noticeable on the dirty wall tiles. 'RENEWAL IS A LIE.' "I want to bypass political gridlock, and get money to people and projects, who need it now, like these children behind me."

Hiccup hummed and wrote those messages down and connected them together with a line between them.

"Sins of the father." Thuggory suddenly said as Stoick's voice continues on to speak. "Renewal is about growth. It's about planting seeds. . . " The Dragon looks over to where his ally is looking at and sees another message from the Riddler: 'SINS OF THE FATHER.' ". . . And renewing Berk's promise."

The Night Fury slowly turns back to the projector's footage on the wall. His eyes widen slightly as he completes the saying, "Shall be visited upon by the son."

Slowly it began to dawn on Hiccup and his eyes widened.

As he watches the old news footage, realization dawns on Thuggory. "Jesus. His next victim is Hiccup Haddock." he declared grimly. When he was met with silence, he turns to the other side of the room, only to find no trace of his dragon themed ally anywhere in the room. He looks left and right in confusion, shining his flashlight everywhere. "Hey!"

"Oh no, Hiccup!" Fishlegs said worriedly. This gets everyone else around them worried as well.

Briefly, Snotlout felt concern for his cousin before he remembered something. "Oh relax, people. The guy's not even home, so he's going be fine." he said dismissively.

Hiccup almost relaxed at that, almost grateful that Snotlout of all people said that before he realized something else. He shoots to his feet and he shouts, "GOBBER!"

"What?" Gobber asked from where he was sitting.

"Not you, the other Gobber!" Hiccup said frantically.

A telephone rings on a small table below a lamp. The Audience then see Gobber looking through mail, sorting them on a desk in a wide study room. Gabriel Faure's "Requiem: In Paradisum" begins playing in the background before the scene changes to show the Night Fury racing his Dragonmobile through the streets as fast as he can towards Haddock Tower. A look at a monitor next to him shows the Audience that he is the one calling the telephone.

"Oh, I get it now," Gobber said, his eyes widening.

Both Stoick, Spitelout, Daemon, Laena and Valka grew worried for their friend, even if it was a counterpart.

"Oh, this is just ironic, isn't it?" Pitch Black said on the Villains' Balcony. "His alter ego is targeted but instead it is his butler that is in danger."

Back with Gobber, the butler then finds a large orange package with no tell to say who it's from other than who it is for based on the shaky written message. For HICCUP HADDOCK'S Eyes ONLY is what it says.

"Gobber, don't open it!"

Back with the Night Fury, he is now driving under a couple of over passing bridges, getting impatient both for waiting for his call to be answered and for wanting to save his butler from whatever the Riddler had sent. He grits his teeth, growling like a dragon before shouting, his voice suddenly muffled on the screen. "Come on!"

"Come on, come on, come on!" Hiccup muttered frantically.

Back with Gobber, he opens the package and pulls out its contents. A white envelope with a message written in red: FOR THE NIGHT FURY while it was tied to a small package with a black bow. Meanwhile the phone continues to ring on the table. The butler doesn't move to answer the phone, instead turns the envelope over and sees another word written in bold text and boxed in red.

FIRE PROOF

Gobber then looks at the underside of the package and sees a blinking red light. The phone continues to ring before it was answered by the hand maid the Audience had seen earlier. "Hello?" she said to the phone.

"Dory! I need to speak to Gobber!" Hiccup said, no longer speaking in his alter persona's voice.

"Oh, Mr. Haddock. . . " Dory said sadly.

"Listen to me!" Hiccup said urgently, no longer keeping his composure. "Something terrible is gonna happen!"

"I'm afraid it already has, sir." Dory said, looking at the floor in sadness and remorse.

The color drains from Hiccup's face. ". . . What?" he asked, his voice barely a whisper.

Requiem: In Paradisum continues playing in the background as Hiccup looks up as the Dragon-mobile drives out from under the overpasses and sees a large plume of smoke on the side of Haddock Tower. Hiccup's jaw dropped as his eyes widen.

Gobber's eyes widen as he realizes what is in the package and he throws it to the other side of the room and shields his face just before the whole room is filled with fire.

"Gobber!" shouted many from Berk.

"About an hour ago." Dory explained sadly, sadness showing in her expression. "I'm so sorry. I've been trying to reach you." Just then the view zooms out away from her and then the Audience see firefighters and other first responders moving about around her.

Silence while Hiccup frantically shakes his head. "No . . . no . . . no . . ." Both Targaryen sisters move to comfort him in a group hug.

"The package was intended for you." A detective tells Hiccup who stands before him and other investigators. His hair is messy, his expression almost unreadable. "It was a C-4 explosive sent in a mailer." the detective explains next, getting no reaction from the young billionaire. "We found this too." the man holds up the envelope addressed as "To the NIGHT FURY" and opens it up. The cover is pitch black with two wide eyes staring at the Audience like some phantom before it's folded open to reveal a message written in white.

SEE YOU IN HELL

"That's ominous. . ."

"But does that mean he knows Hiccup's the Night Fury and was planning on killing him?"

Hiccup's green eyes widen in response as the music turns sinister and dark.

The scene changes to show Gobber laying on a hospital bed, unconscious with scrapes and cuts on his face, his right arm bandaged. Hiccup is shown standing outside the room, watching his butler with a worried and concerned expression. A doctor walks out of the room and looks at Hiccup. "We've sedated him." she explained to the young and distraught man. "We just have to hope he stabilizes."

Hiccup looks at the screen, teary-eyed before sighing in relief. "Oh thank Odin," he muttered.

"You should go home, Mr. Haddock. Get some sleep." she said at Hiccup's silent response. "Is there anyone else to notify? Next of kin?"

Hiccup looks at her before slowly looking back at the unconscious Gobber. " . . . No. It's just me." he replied softly.

Gobber suddenly felt himself getting a hug unexpectedly. He looks down and sees Hiccup hugging. He relaxes slightly and hugs him back in response.

The scene changed to show Hiccup alone in his home. Shirtless, he starts pushing his large family table across the room with the furniture on the side as well. He then starts placing photos on different areas of the floor and then he began spray painting on the floor. The Audience catch some glimpses of what he is spray painting. Names of the people the Riddler has killed, such as the mayor, LARVSON, the police commissioner, SAVAGE

He connects the message NO MORE LIES with the DA, COLSON and connecting it to I'm just a Phone Call Away, ANSWER

Next he spray paints THE SINS OF MY FATHER? and RENEWAL IS A LIE? he then connects it all to the middle with the symbol of the Riddler. The background music rises in volume as Hiccup moves to stand in the middle of the floor over the Riddler's symbol. The Audience see his expression as he is lost in thought without anyone to talk to in his home.

"I don't think it was a good idea to do that in your living room," Wilbur said. "That would look really sus for anyone who sees it."

"Sus?" Prince Jacerys repeated.

"Short for suspicious." Wilbur explained.

Later, Hiccup starts digging through file cabinets, scrolling though books that cover his father's Renewal Fund, grabs over a handful of the books and then carries them over to the desk in his Dragon Cave. He runs a hand through his hair in frustration before he notices something on one of his computer screens. One of the monitors of his eye contact/secret camera lens is now active despite the fact he was off duty as the Night Fury at the time. Then he realizes that it was the eye contact/camera lens that he had given to Camicazi Bog who didn't give it back to him. He rewinds the footage before seeing the current feedback. A cat's face was in view, sniffing and licking at the eye contact lens/secret camera but he also sees a small little note next to the curious cat's face.

"Well, that's a cute cat."

Where R U? is what it said.

"That's one way to get attention."

"But who is it?"

"Camicazi?" Hiccup asked after turning on his comm link.

"Oh."

Almost hesitantly, Camicazi picks up her cat and leans in to look down at the camera. "Can you see me?" she asked.

Hiccup lowers his gaze briefly before replying, "Yeah, I can see you."

"I need to talk to you." Camicazi said bluntly before asking, "Where can we go?"

Suspenseful music plays as the Night Fury stands at the construction site where the Dragon Signal is located. The Dragon looks out over the sky line before he hears the elevator door opening and he sees Camicazi walk out of the elevator in her cat burglar costume. "Cat burglar pulling another score?" he asked her in a snide tone as she approached.

"Either that or I've went to bury my friend," Camicazi remarked dryly.

"What?" Camicazi asked, brow furrowed in confusion at his tone and question. "Wasn't sure I'd see you again." the Night Fury remarked dryly.

"Yeah, well, things were getting a little hot for me, so. . . " Camicazi shrugged before she begins ranting about the death of her friend and roommate. "How could they do that to her? That piece of shit cop, Thorston. Her body was in his car."

The Night Fury looks at her with the expression of a frowning statue. "I'm gonna find him and I'm gonna make him pay." Camicazi vowed before looking to the Dragon. "You gonna help me?"

"Help you?" the Dragon repeated monotonously. Camicazi nods her head at him as if it was easy to understand. "Yeah. I thought you were 'Vengeance.'"

"Your friend got involved with the wrong people." the dragon themed vigilante replied impassively, turning away from her slightly. "She didn't know any better. Maybe you should have explained it to her."

"What the Hell is that supposed to mean?" Camicazi asked angrily. The Dragon gives her a look at the corner of his eye. "It means your choices have consequences."

"Hey, don't judge her like that," Anna said.

"Jesus Christ. "Choices?"" Camicazi scoffed before rolling her eyes and then giving the Night Fury a flat look. "You know, whoever the Hell you are, you obviously grew up rich." She had no idea how right she was.

"Well, she's not wrong," Baela said with a shrug.

"Was it worth it?" the Night Fury asked, getting her to look at him in confusion. "What?"

"Compromising yourself for money? What did you have to do to set up that score?" the Night Fury elaborated as he turns to face her and then starts walking towards her until he was less than a foot away from Camicazi. "How close did you have to get to Penguin? To Falcone?"

"You don't know what the Hell you're talking about." Camicazi said defensively and glares up to the taller vigilante. "Falcone owes me that money."

"He owes you?" the Dragon asked in a mixture of skepticism and mockery. Camicazi nods her head once firmly. "Yeah, and a lot more."

"Oh really? Why's that?" the Night Fury asked.

"Yeah, now I'm curious," Eugene stated. "What's her story?"

Cami shakes her head. "You know what? I can't even talk to you." She turns around and moves to walk away.

"No!" the Night Fury grabs her by her arm and pulls her back to him. "I want to know why a man like Alvin Falcone would owe you anything." He demanded as she tried to pull her arm out of his grip.

Camicazi wheels around and shouts to the Dragon's face, "BECAUSE HE'S MY FATHER!"

"What?!" Hiccup, Camicazi and Thuggory exclaimed.

"What?!" Bertha exclaimed.

"What?!" was the general reaction, even Alvin himself was surprised.

"That's a twist," Jack declared. "I did not see that coming."

". . . I suppose that explains their interaction." King Agnarr said after a moment.

That shocks the Night Fury and he lets go of her arm. Camicazi steps back, panting heavily to regain control of her emotions. After a moment of long silence, she looks at her dragon themed ally? Colleague? Friend? It was complicated to label their relationship at the moment. "My mother worked at the 44 Below." She said after a moment. "Just like Anni. She used to take me there when I was a little girl."

"To the club?" the Night Fury asked softly.

"Yeah. I hid out in the dressing room while she worked." Camicazi answered, looking to the side as she reminisces about the past. "Used to see him there. He scared the shit out of me. And I could never understand why he looked at me the way he did." she explained. "Then one night, my mother told me who he was. When I was seven, my mother was murdered. Strangled."

"I. . . I. . . " Cami opened and closed her mouth, unsure what to say. She then realized something and shared a look with Hiccup. "I guess our counterparts-"

"Are the same," Hiccup finished.

Sympathy flashes in the Dragon's eyes but he said nothing. "Never found out who. Probably some creep from the club." Cami went on, looking away to the distance. "Anyway, social services came to take me away, and he didn't say a thing. Couldn't even look at me."

She looks to the Night Fury with a firm expression. "He owes me that money."

"I'm sorry." the Dragon said softly. "For what I said."

"Well, at least there's that." Elsa said. "I mean what can you say to that?"

"Oh, it's all right." Camicazi shrugged it off, turning to face him with an almost playful expression. "You assume the worst in people. Which, well . . . Maybe we're not so different after all." she said while walking back to stand in front of him. She lifts a hand up to caress the right side of the dragon themed vigilante's cowl, her nails stroking the ridge of spikes on the top. "Who are you under there?" she asked, leaning close to him. "What are you hiding? Are you just. . . hideously scarred?" she said teasingly.

The Night Fury looks down at her and replies dryly after a moment. "Yeah." Physically, his scars aren't that noticeable. Mentally? He is indeed hideously scarred.

"The tension is so thick, you could cut it with a Valerian steel sword," Daemon said to Laena who nodded her head in silent agreement.

Astrid frowned as she felt something tightening her heart at what she was seeing. But she didn't understand what she was feeling.

"Listen to me. If we don't stand up for Annika, no one will." Camicazi implored. "All anyone cares about in this place are these rich, privileged assholes. The mayor, the commissioner, the DA. Now Stoick and Hiccup Haddock. I mean, as far as I'm concerned, that psycho's right to go after these creeps. I think you'd be on his side."

Upon hearing the name of his and his father's name, the Night Fury looks at Camicazi in confusion. "What do you mean, "Stoick and Hiccup Haddock"?"

"What, do you live in a cave?" Camicazi retorted, again, unknowingly right on the money more or less. "The Riddler's latest. It's all about the Haddocks."

"Wait, how did she know about that?" Astrid asked.

"I mean, I don't think it's going to be kept under wraps that the attempt on Hiccup Haddock's life was by the Riddler." Honey Lemon said. "The press probably learned about it and told the populace."

"Listen, if I can find that dick bag Gruffnut, will you help me? Please." she asked, leaning close again to give the Dragon a pleading expression that turns a bit playful by her next words, "Come on, Vengeance. Let's get into some trouble."

"Just don't make any moves without me, understand?" the Night Fury said, seemingly relenting to her plea. "It's a little more dangerous than you know. . ."

"Well, he gave in pretty quick-" Thuggory began before he and the rest of the Audience were surprised by what happened next.

Romantic music plays in the background as Camicazi kisses the Night Fury on the lips, her left hand caressing the right side of his head. The dragon themed vigilante visibly stiffens in surprise before the cat burglar pulls away after a short moment.

Some Vikings cheered or clapped, some even whistled. They stopped when they saw Stoick and Bertha glaring at them all.

"Damn it, I can't believe Hiccup got kissed by a woman before I did," Snotlout complained.

Gojira shook his head. Snotlout was just meant to be single for life wasn't he?

"Uh-I-Uh-I-Uh. . . " Hiccup stuttered while Camicazi brushed her hair behind her ear nervously.

Both Baela and Rheana gave the two a thumbs up as did Thuggory. Daemon waved his eyebrows at Hiccup with a smirk.

She smiles slyly at the Dragon. "I told you, baby. I can take care of myself." She runs her hand down his chest seductively before she turns away, walking back to the elevator while swaying her hips.

The Night Fury watches her walk away before looking away.

"I'm Stoick Haddock, and I approve this message."

"Oh good, something that won't be embarrassing," Hiccup sighed in relief.

Triumphant music plays as the Night Fury pulled off his cowl in the Dragon Cave. In front of him, the two computer screens are playing a news footage that was broadcasting the newest message from the Riddler. EXPLOSIVE NEW RIDDLER VIDEO GOES VIRAL. KILLER'S MESSAGE HAS OVER 13 MILLION VIEWS.

"Oh great." Hiccup drawled.

"From a very young age, my family, Valka's family, the Vallahallarma's instilled in both of us that giving back is not just an obligation," Stoick's voice said before his face is shown, once again at the start of his mayoral campaign. "It's a passion. That is our family's legacy." The triumphant music ends as Stoick's slogan is shown next to his face was shown. STOICK HADDOCK FOR MAYOR.

"If only that was my family legacy," Hiccup muttered. All he seems to have are just dragon killers that care about killing dragons and people that are fat and could lift heavy weapons properly.

"I sense a twist." Lucerys said.

"It's the Riddler," his brother Joffery said from next tom. "Of course there's going to be a twist."

"The Haddocks and the Vallahallarma's." The Riddler's voice spoke as it showed both mentioned families. "Berk's founding families. But what is their real legacy?" A photo of Stoick and Valka's wedding subtitled 'Happily Ever After' before LEGACY? was placed over the photo and the families' eyes were blurred out.

"You're going to tell us anyway," Hiro said sarcastically. "Might as well get it over with."

"Twenty years ago, one reporter set out to uncover the dark truth." The Riddler said with a couple of photos of the mentioned reporter is shown on the video montage. His name is glimpsed over once during the montage, Edward Elliot. He had dark blonde hair with glasses. Edward was shown at his work desk and looking through some files and papers. "He found shocking family secrets." A photo of Valka's mother was shown, dead, her eyes covered in a white drawing as if someone tried to blur out her eyes on the photo with a marker. "How when Valka was just a child, her mother brutally murdered her father and then committed suicide." A photo of Valka's dead father was shown, his head and face not shown before the next photo showed Valka's mother holding a gun in hand while her body was shown to be laying on the bed.

BANG! A gunshot was heard in the background of the video.

Hiccup furrowed his brow as the Riddler continues speaking. "And how the Vallahallarma's used their power and money to cover it up." A certification of death was shown and the cause of death was written as "Accidental."

A photo of Valka's smiling face with blurred out eyes was shown before it showed two black and white photos of Valka outside in a mental institution's courtyard. It appeared that she was fighting against staff that were trying to escort her back inside. "How Valka herself was in and out of institutions for years and they didn't want anyone to know." The Riddler said.

Hiccup's eyes widen in shock, the background suddenly sounds like a woman screaming. "Stoick Haddock tried to force this crusading reporter into a hush-money agreement to save his mayoral campaign." Stoick was shown, smiling to the crowds of people around him before the word HUSH! appears over his face. "And when the reporter refused," the Riddler went on speaking more dramatically. A Cease And Desist Demand was quickly shown to the Audiences before it showed a black and white photo of Stoick talking to Alvin Falcone, his eyes now blurred out with a marker. "Haddock turned to longtime secret associate Alvin Falcone and had him MURDERED!" The phrase from before is shown again over the background of a conspiracy wall: SINS OF THE FATHER followed by the sound of another gunshot.

BANG!

Hiccup looks at the screen with wide eyes in horror and disbelief. "The Haddocks and the Vallahallarma's, Berk's legacy of lies and murder." The Riddler announces dramatically and Stoick's mayoral slogan for Mayor is altered slightly. The word 'mayor' is crossed out and covered with another word. The slogan next to Stoick's smiling face now says STOICK HADDOCK FOR MURDER. The Riddler walks into view of the camera. His masked face glares at the Audience, or rather to Hiccup. "I hope you're listening, Hiccup Haddock." he said to the camera, to Hiccup. "This is your legacy too, and Berk needs you to answer for the sins of your father." He whispers at the end. "Goodbye."

Silence. Absolute silence from how some people from the modern day shifted uncomfortably, clearly disturbed by what they were told.

Stoick, Spitelout and his wife, Gobber and Valka herself were shocked to their core at what they had seen on the screen.

"I was wrong." Hiccup said. "I mean, it's less embarrassing and more world shattering really. Clearly my counterpart's world is flipped upside down, his beliefs are shattered like glass and I feel like I'm losing my mind with this plot."

If one were to ask him why he wasn't bothered by this was because he didn't learn a thing about his mother. No one told him anything about her. Stoick having someone killed? Well, okay, that was a shocker since he didn't do it himself.

The door to the Iceberg Lounge opens up to reveal Hiccup Haddock, dressed in his civilian cloths, his hair messy more than before. Clearly he had driven all the way to the Lounge after dawning his civilian clothes and cleaning his face. "Do you know who I am?" he asked the guard.

The guard is Tuffnut Thorston. "You're Hiccup Haddock." He said, clearly surprised to see the Prince of Berk at the door of the Iceberg Lounge.

"I wanna to see Alvin Falcone." Hiccup declared.

Tuffnut stared at him before closing the door abruptly. Hiccup almost lost his composure before the door opened again to show that Tuffnut had went get his sister who had a skeptic expression on her bruised face before her eyes widened at the sight of Hiccup Haddock. Tuffnut half turns his head to look at her. "See?"

"Well, at least it's better than being rejected." Penny shrugged.

"But why is he going there?" Stoick demanded.

"He wants answers, Stoick," Gobber said. "I don't like it any more than ya do, but my counterpart's injured and unconscious, you and Valka are dead in this world. There's only one person that will tell 'Iccup what he wants to know."

The scene changed to show elevator doors opening to reveal Hiccup lifting his head up. "Who is this guy who invented the ball, right?" Alvin's voice speaks over the sound of an old romantic song playing on the speakers as Hiccup slowly walked up the hallway, past the guards that stood at attention before Hiccup and the Audience see the mob boss play Pool ball with Savage and a few other men around him, a woman in a glittering suit sat at attention on the couch. "Must have made a fortune. If you think about the concept of it, right?" Alvin chuckled.

"Briscoe, do you know how much this sweater cost?" Alvin asked one of his lackeys who shook his head. "No, boss."

"$1,183." Alvin answered as he continued to play Pool ball. "You know why communism failed, right?"

"Commun-what?" Tuffnut asked.

"No, boss." Briscoe replied in a monotone tone. "Austerity." Alvin answered his own question.

"Aust-what now?" Snotlout proclaimed in confusion.

"All right. All right." Savage relented as his boss wins the game. "Look at that. Perfect." Alvin chuckles.

"It's never gonna be that good again." Savage laughed before he sees the young billionaire in the room. "Hey, Johnny Slick. What are you doing here?"

Alvin looked over to Hiccup before turning his head slightly to Savage, Briscoe and the other men. "Give us a moment here, fellas." he ordered.

The men all complied. "Come on." Savage said to the others. He gives Hiccup a sarcastic remark, "See ya, champ." Hiccup doesn't acknowledge him other than a slight nod. He hears the mobster speak to the woman on the couch. "Come on, sweetheart."

Alvin straightens up, leaning on the Pool stick like a cane. "Have a seat." he gestures to the couch behind Hiccup. "I thought I might hear from you."

Hiccup doesn't move from his spot while Alvin starts playing his game alone. "This, uh, Riddler son of a bitch is really. . . stirring things up, huh?" he asked sarcastically.

"That's one way of saying it," Astrid muttered.

"Is it true?" Hiccup demanded after a moment. Alvin looks up to him with a raised eyebrow. "What? That reporter business? What do you want to know here, kid?" He walks around the Pool table.

"Preferringly everything." Hiccup said. "Beginning. Middle. End. Details. Exposition."

"Did you kill him? For my father?" Hiccup demanded.

"That too."

"Look, your father was in trouble." Alvin replied, holding his arms up slightly. "This reporter had some dirt. Some very. . . personal stuff about your mother, her family history." He waves a hand around animatedly as he speaks before pushing the Pool balls. "Everybody's got their dirty laundry, that's just how it is. But he didn't want none of it coming out, not right before the election."

"And your father tried to pay the guy off, but he wasn't going for it." Hiccup remains silent as Alvin turns to him and walks up to him. "So, he came to me. Well, I've never seen him like that. He said, "Alvin, I want you to put the fear of God in this guy."" Alvin changes his voice to imitate Stoick then he shrugs. "And when fear isn't enough . . . Oof. Hmm."

Hiccup stares at the older man, his eyes widening slightly. "Your father wanted me to handle it, so I did. I handled it." Alvin said as if saying he had down Stoick's dishes for him. He sees Hiccup's expression and forms a semi-sympathetic expression. "I know. You thought your father was a Boy Scout. But you'd be surprised what even a good man like him is capable in the right situation."

"Do me a favor. Don't lose any sleep over it." He said at Hiccup's lowering gaze, putting his hand on the young man's shoulder. He turns around and begins to resume his game of Pool. "This reporter was a lowlife. He was on Bludvist's payroll."

"Bludvist?" Hiccup repeated in confusion, lifting his gaze back up.

"Oh yeah." Alvin nods nonchalantly. "He could never stand your father and I had history." He explained before walking back to Hiccup to stand in front of him. "And after what happened with that reporter, Bludvist was worried that your father would be in my pocket, forever. He would have done anything to keep him from becoming mayor. You understand?"

". . . Are you saying Drago Bludvist got my father killed?" Hiccup asked after a moment of silence.

"Do I know it for a fact?" Alvin asked in response, tilting his head. "I'm just saying it looked that way to me." At Hiccup's silence, Alvin continues speaking to him. "This is what you wanted, huh? This little conversation here?" He exhales ruefully. "It's been a long time coming, huh? I mean, you ain't a kid no more."

The screen focuses on Hiccup's expression.

"So, what's your take?" Cami asked Hiccup.

"I've written every detail he said, and in my opinion, there is a high possibility that Alvin is lying." Hiccup replied. "So, I think I know my counterpart's next move."

"And what's that?" Rheana asked.

"Getting a second opinion."

Melancholy music plays as Hiccup walks up the stairs of his home, towards his parents' bedroom whose doors were chained and locked. After unlocking and unchaining it, he pushes the doors open. He walks into the room. The Audience's view soon focuses on the top of a dresser that has multiple photos and a few makeup supplies in front of a mirror that had a child's drawing of the Haddock family.

The scene changed to show Hiccup sitting in a chair next to the unconscious Gobber. The EKG machine beeping nearby. Soon, the butler begins to wake up and he sees the young Haddock sitting next to his bed. He smiles slightly with a relieved sigh.

Hiccup does sigh, relieved that Gobber's counterpart was now awake.

Unlike the one in the Audience, the Hiccup in the hospital does not feel relieved. He feels betrayed, distraught and angry. "You lied to me." He said to Gobber bluntly. "My whole life." Gobber looks at him in confusion.

"I spoke to Alvin Falcone." Hiccup explained, not beating around the bush and softly, careful of the possibility someone in the hospital could hear him. "He told me what he did for my father. About Drago Bludvist."

Gobber lifts his head slightly, eyebrows furrowed. "He told you Drago Bludvist . . ."

"Had my father killed." Hiccup finished. He gives his butler a withering glare. "Why didn't you tell me all this? All these years I've spent fighting for him, believing that he was a good man." He looks to the side, looking ashamed and angry at himself.

"He WAS a good man." Gobber said steely. He gives the billionaire a look like he's telling a child that they've been told a lie. "You listen to me. Your father was a good man. He made a mistake."

"A 'mistake.'" Hiccup repeated in anger. He glares at Gobber. "He had a man killed. Why?" He looks away with a scoff. "To protect his family image? His political aspirations?"

"It wasn't to protect the family image, and he didn't have anyone killed." Gobber argued vehemently. "He was protecting your mother." he said in a somber tone. Hiccup slowly turns to look at him. "He didn't care about his image or the campaign, any of that." Gobber went on to explain. "He cared about her, and you, and in a moment of weakness, he turned to Falcone. But he never thought Falcone would kill that man."

Hiccup's eyes widen slightly and he mentally kicks himself for not thinking of that. "Your father should have known that Falcone would do anything to finally have something on him that he could use." Gobber said next. He shakes his head, clearly he himself not over what Stoick had done all those years ago. "That's who Falcone is. And that was your father's mistake."

"But when Falcone told him what he'd done, your father was distraught." Gobber went on, getting Hiccup's attention. "He told Falcone he was going to the police, that he was going to confess everything. And that night, your father and your mother were killed."

"Wow, just. . . wow," Dash said in shock.

"If this was a movie, I'd say it was well written," Wasabi said. Go Go nods in agreement.

"It's the Multiverse, my friend," Fred said in a sage tone. "There's probably a universe where this is a movie that is praised by the fans."

Gojira stares at him before silently looking to the Fourth Wall and raising his eyebrows.

Soft music plays as Hiccup softens his glare. ". . . It was Falcone?" he asked quietly.

Gobber closes his eyes and smacks his lips slightly. "Oh, I wish I knew for sure." he admitted sadly. "Or maybe it was some random thug on the street who needed money, got scared, and pulled the trigger too fast." He closes his eyes briefly. "If you don't think I've spent every day searching for that answer . . ." he opens his eyes to look at Hiccup, sad and ashamed for what had happened. "It was my job to protect them. Do you understand?"

Hiccup looks at the screen, "Gobber. . . " he said softly.

"I know you always blamed yourself. You were only a boy, Hiccup." Gobber tells him imploringly. "I could see the fear in your eyes, but I didn't know how to help. I could teach you how to fight," Gobber went on to say. "But I wasn't equipped to take care of you. You needed a father. And all you had was me. I'm sorry." He softens his gaze at his ward.

Hiccup shakes his head. "Don't be sorry, Gobber. You're enough." he muttered. "If it wasn't Daemon and Laena, I'd pick you."

Hiccup shakes his head. "Don't be sorry, Gobber." He barely tries to keep his composure but all his emotions is shown in his eyes. ". . . God . . . I never thought I'd feel fear like that again. I thought I'd master all that."

"I mean, I'm not afraid to die." He admits without shame with a shake of his head. Gobber looks at him sadly as he goes on. "I realize now there's something I haven't got past. This fear . . . of ever going through any of that again. Of losing somebody I care about."

This struck a chord with Astrid. Hearing this version of Hiccup who was by all means a warrior with great skill and bravery to fight criminals alone admit that he was afraid of anything had struck a chord in her and made her rethink somethings about her life.

Gobber slowly begins to smile before he holds his hand out towards Hiccup. Hiccup reaches out and grabs Gobber's hand in his own. The silent gesture speaking more than words can describe followed by Hiccup sighing in relief. He looks to Gobber before something out the window grabs his attention.

Some sniffling was heard as some people shed some tears at the scene. It was somber, but also wholesome to see.

The Dragon Signal was shining in the sky.

Gobber turned his head slightly to the window and sees what Hiccup was seeing.

Hiccup sighs. "Time to go to work."

Whew! That was fun, wasn't it?

The Vikings' reactions to the Dragonmobile was inspired by Madman479R's Multiversal Viewing. I just thought how the Batmobile in the movie sounded similar to a Night Fury's dive bombing screech while writing and then remembered Madman479R's fanfic that featured a reaction to Batman: Arkham City and thought it would be fitting to include that reaction here as well.

Also, anyone hear Mark Hamill's voice reading Alvin Falcone's dialog? Because I remembered Alvin the Treacherous was voiced by Mark Hamill and I ended up hearing his voice while writing this.

Next will be the finale of the Night Fury movie.

After that will be an intermission with a couple of YouTube videos that will cover a glimpse of what the Audience will watch in the future, including a tribute to this world's Penguin.

And then following that will be a John Wick reaction.
