“I knew you would.” Hiccup said with a sincere smile and an edge of fondness. Regardless of how dangerous this was she didn’t turn tail and abandon her dragon but despite this somewhat pleasant realization the expression didn’t hold to his face. His lips slowly drew into a grim line and with a nod to them he stepped out “wait here.” As soon as he left Toothless sat down with a dejected air. He could summon an army of dragons in a heartbeat but his rider seemed to be aiming for small scale. Did he hope to catch that vile man off guard? Berk was always ready for a fight, dragons and Vikings alike, deep down it would always be in their blood. 

In a few minutes time Hiccup had returned- a bulky dragon visible beyond the doorway as Hiccup stepped back in. “When we get there. Toothless will distract Aurora and I’ll go after Bludvist, without him that bewilder beast won’t fight.” He determined sternly “I need you to make sure the babies are safe and out of range.” Which would be a difficult job but one he was trusting her to. She was just an extra piece in an evil man’s plan for revenge. He didn’t think she would be targeted unless she made a direct strike against it and because of that she should be able to carry the hatchlings off without complication. 

Hiccup lead them out to the tracking dragon, touching his broad forehead. “You’ll ride Skullcrusher. At least for this part.” He got on Toothless’ back. “Let’s hurry.”
