They were flying away from Alvin's ship. Hiccup looked over at Toothless Still trapped in the nest beneath a large red dragon that he had never seen before. The other rider sitting on drag blue glowing dragon and his apparent half sister sitting on her red and gold night fury looking dragon were both new dragons to him. The only one he knew was the dragon, Aries, a night fury he was sitting on.

"So?" Hiccup asked, looking over at Ariella?

"I'm guessing you want so answers then." she replied, looking over him to the other rider, "Belle take off your helmet now too"

"Answers would be good. Sister? I don't have a sister, I'm an only child." He exclaimed.

" Well no you aren't." Ariella sighed, gesturing towards Belle, "We were born hours apart and were both in Gothi's hut, there was a dragon raid when we were two days old. One dragon broke into the hut and took us. That was 18 years ago now. Everyone assumed that the dragon killed us and Stoick forbid that anyone mention us again. Gothi know we are still alive we do visit her occasionally but she has never told anyone else."

"Belle?" Hiccup looked over at the other girl, who was also blonde but had unusal electric blue eyes the same colour as her dragons scales.

"It's actually Skylah Rayne Hofferson but everyone calls me Rebelle when we are out and masked." Skylah shrugged, "No one truly knows who we are no one that could/would get back to Berk and also those we have pissed off over our years."

"I go by Rouge" Ariella said, "I can see that your head is about to explode Hiccup. It's a lot to take in. I have to ask how you managed to a night fury? We thought Aries was the last one."

"What are you doing out here and not on Berk?" Skylah asked

"That's a bit of a long story isn't bud" Hiccup said, banking Aries over to Toothless giving his head a scratch. "also got to say that my head is ready to explode, everything you two have said isn't sinking in to fast."

"Meh, we've got a couple of hours before we reach our Sancturary." Ariella shrugged

"It all started during a raid on Berk, I shot him down." Hiccup started, "being the village screw-up no one believed my when I told them. I went out searching and found him wrapped in bolas that I used from a bola cannon I invented. I thought my problems had been solved, I would cut out his heart and give it to my father. When he opened his eyes and looked at me, I saw myself in him and couldn't kill him so I cut him free. I assumed he flew off. Anyway dad decided that I should go into dragon training to top everything off. The first day in training our teacher Gobber, said that a dragon would always go for the kill, I decided to go looking again wondering why a night fury wouldn't go for the kill." thoughtfully scratching toothless again. "I found a cove, a single black scale lay on the ground I bent to pick it up and large black shape lunched up in front of my before crashing back to the ground. I couldn't figure out why he didn't just fly away, then I noticed his tail half of his tail fin was missing."sighing he looked down "it tore off when I shot him down. A downed dragon is a dead dragon. I couldn't just leave him so I tried to build him another but it wouldn't work on its own so I made friends with him after a rocky start. Being with toothless I learnt tricks which I then used in the training ring, which then backfired when Gothi choose me to kill the nightmare. I couldn't do it so I left, but I don't know what we're going to do or go."

"You will always a have place with us in the Sancturary if you want to. We will be happy for you to live there and so will mum." Ella said, flying over placing a hand on his shoulder.

A couple of hours later as the sun was beginning to making its way up, both girls burst out laughing at Hiccup's face as a huge ice fortress which became visible rising up from the horizon.

"Welcome home... Welcome to the Sancturary." Skylah called out waving a hand towards the sculpture.

"Wow" Hiccup said, eyes popping out of his head as the size increased as they flew closer. "What happened, what could done this."

"We'll answer that soon, but for now are you ready to see the inside?" Ella called, picking up speed.

Meanwhile the sun was starting to rise over Berk, Stoick rose early to make sure everything was ready from when Hiccup would take on and kill the Nightmare and finally become a Viking. He decided to let his son sleep a bit longer, making his way out he saw the banners being raised around the arena.

Astird awoke when her mother called her down for breakfast. Her brain was still trying to work out how Hiccup, Hiccup of all people managed to beat her in dragon training. Afterbreakfast she decided to go inot the woods for a while and train, as she walked out Stoick was walked passed back up towards his house.

"Good morning Stoick" Astrid called, giving the chief a wave.

"Mornin' Astrid" Stoick replied

He continued on his way up to his house, it was time to wake Hiccup up. Climbing the stairs he found Hiccup's bed empty. 'he must already be the and in the mead hall having breakfast' Stoick thought to himself. Heading back down and out the door towards the mead hall, missing the envelop addressed to him on his sons desk. Entering the mead hall Stoick spotted Gobber at on stable and all of the teens minus Hiccup at another.

"Mornin Gobber" Stoick said making his way over to his friend

"Morin Stoick" Gobber replied looking up from his breakfast.

Dropping his voice Stoick turned to his old friend "Have you seen Hiccup this morning?"

"No, not this morning." his friend replied, noting the concerned look on his chiefs face. " Don't worry Stoick his probably off somwhere practing orpreparing for his big day. He'll turn up I'm sure of it after all it is his big day."
