RandyCunningham IsTheCheese, Bright Eyes Illusionist: I will be writing more one shots as soon as I have finished one of my current stories :)

Toothless gently touched down into the cove; Hiccup hopped off and pulled at his hair, "Why do they always have to be so pushy?!" he sighed, walking around in circles.

Toothless crooned in concern, "I'm alright bud, it's just…" Hiccup breathed, kicking a stone into the lake.

He abruptly sat down and rested his head in his left palm, "You know bud…" Hiccup started, "I'd always wished that someone would talk to me," he sighed, "But now…"

Toothless stomped over and blankly stared at him, "…Yeah, yeah, I know bud," Hiccup said.

Hiccup sighed, "I guess it was kind of rude for me to leave like that…huh?"

Toothless tilted his head and raised his ears.

Hiccup chuckled and rubbed his friend's snout, "I guess you're right bud…" he said, standing up, "I guess I should go apologize," he said, mounting Toothless.

Toothless snorted and extended his wings.

Hiccup looked down, "Toothless? What are you—TOOTHLESS!" he screamed.

Toothless chortled in satisfaction as his rider clung tightly to the saddle, silently cursing him.

Stoick was sitting on a table, his face in his hands. He shook his head, "Where could he have gone, Gobber?!" he sighed.

"Relax, Stoick," Gobber reassured, "I'm sure he'll be back soon…in fact, he's probably on his way back, right...now!" he said.

The doors to the Great Hall suddenly flew open, and in came—

"Hiccup!" the teens exclaimed, running over to him.

Stoick lifted his head and bolted over to the doors.

Gobber chuckled and raced after him.

"Son! Where did you—" Stoick asked.

"Uh…what happened to you?" Tuffnut interrupted.

Hiccup groaned and wrung out his tunic, "This sneaky reptile, decided that I needed to go for a swim…" he spat, staring daggers at Toothless, "So, he took a major detour...and decided to take me on an underwater tour."

The twins burst out laughing, "Cool!" they chorused.

Fishlegs tried to hide his giggling, but was failing. Snotlout scoffed, rolled his eyes, and crossed his arms. Astrid grinned and brushed his soaking wet hair out of his face, "It's a good look for you," she said.

Hiccup stared at her, "Not…helping…"

Astrid chuckled and took a step back, revealing Stoick.

"Oh! Hey…dad," Hiccup muttered, "So…did you need something?"

"Yes," Stoick said, "I need you to tell me...where in Thor's name you've been for the past four hours!"

Hiccup stared, "I already told you—oh...never mind," he sighed, "Toothless and I were in the cove for an hour, and then he took me for a swim…that lasted three hours," he said, glaring at said dragon.

Stoick relaxed, "Oh…never mind then," he said, "Go on and, well…do whatever…" he said, awkwardly waving his son off.

"Bye, dad…" Hiccup said.

The teens looked at him expectantly.

"Um…okay," he said, clasping his hands together, "Everyone! Meet me at the sea stacks in ten minutes," he said, "We're going to have a little bonding time with out dragons."

Fishlegs, Snotlout, and the twins cheered. Astrid raised an eyebrow, "Are you sure about this Hiccup?" she asked, "I mean, you're still recovering and all…"

"Astrid," Hiccup said, "Please…Viking's don't need rest," he winked, "Besides…I owe you guys," he said, running off.

Astrid sighed, shook her head, and faced the other teens, "Alright! You heard what he said! Sea stacks! In ten minutes! Let's go!" she commanded.

The four teens obeyed, for once, and they almost immediately took off. Astrid hopped onto Stormfly, "Come on, girl," she said, "We can't let them beat us, now can we?" she asked.

Stormfly shook her head and squawked.

Astrid grinned, "I didn't think so."

Hiccup stepped outside of his house, ready to go. He quickly mounted Toothless—in his dry clothes—and took off. He gazed down at Berk, glad that they were finally at peace with the dragons-

"This...is Berk. For generations it was Viking against dragon. The battles, were ferocious. Then one day, everything changed…I met Toothless. And together, we've shown people here that instead of fighting dragons, we can ride them, live with them…even train them."

Hiccup smiled to himself as he spotted his friends waiting for him. He instructed Toothless to touch down, "Okay guys…best trick competition, who's up first?"

"Me!" Snotlout called.

"Actually, I think it's..." Fishlegs interrupted.

"Me!" Snotlout spat.

"…Sweet baby, Thor in a thunderstorm, go!" Astrid yelled.

"Oh don't worry…we'll go, and when we go…Hookfang and I are going to light the sky on fi—FIRE!" Snotlout screamed as Hookfang abruptly sped off.

Hiccup looked after Snotlout, and back at his new friends with a satisfied expression.

"Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho..no-no-no!" Snotlout yelled from a far.

Hiccup grinned and shared a knowing glance with Toothless.

This…all this…was so worth it.

And we're done!

I realize that I've fallen behind on my updating…but I can assure you that I'll try my hardest to continuously update Friday through Monday.

-Watching the Series ((The Terrible Twos, Pt. 2) should be up by this Friday)

Thanks for reading!

And until next time,
