Walking back from the forest to meet with the others was Hiccup and Toothless. See after going back and forth with his betrothed. Hiccup had agreed to help Dagur and Eret with taking out the guards while Astrid and Heather sneak out the Berkians. But what Dagur, Heather, Eret, and Astrid did not know was that Hiccup had other plans on saving Berk. To do what he is scheming to do he must first lead Toothless away from the others.

The young man knows that his dragon would not enjoy what he is plotting to do, so that was why he was leading them away into the woods. Shortly after the battle with Red Death. The dragons all but Toothless had left around the Snogglelog time to have their offspring. During this time Hiccup had felt terrible because Toothless could not join the other dragons. So, Hiccup had created an automatic prosthetic tail-fin that would allow the Night Fury to fly without him. But what Hiccup did not account was Toothless' distain of the idea of flying on his own so the dragon had destroyed the prosthetic. Luckily Hiccup had created a spare one just in case. When Toothless tried to destroyed that one too? Hiccup had to convince the dark dragon to not dismantle the spare prosthetic, in case something ever happened to Hiccup and Toothless needed to go and get help. Toothless agreed not to break the prosthetic but he still hated the tail-fin more than wearing armor.

Making it to a quiet clearing far enough from the village so that they would not hear Toothless' roars of disagreement. Hiccup knows that he does not have a lot of time to do this so might as well try to keep Toothless calm. "Bud, do you trust me," the auburn hair man asked while he walks towards the side of Toothless where the saddle bag was at. Nodding his head has he watches his rider heading towards his saddle bag where they kept other tail-fins inside.

The automatic prosthetic was not the only tail-fin Hiccup had created over the years. The tail-fins Hiccup had crafted did different task for pacific things. Pulling out the automatic tail-fin and the moment the dragon sees it he starts to growl in disappointment. "I know that you don't like this tail but-," Hiccup says but before he could finish, he was interrupted by the dark dragon's growling even louder. As Toothless is growling he glaring daggers at the tail-fin. The midnight dragon's pupils dilated into slants. That is not a good sign at all Hiccup thinks to himself. He also moved his tail rabidly towards the side of him away from Hiccup preventing his rider from switching his tail-fins.

"Come on bud work with me here," Hiccup asked nervously trying to calm down his best friend. He knows that he had to finds a way to have Toothless to agree to his idea to save Berk. "You said you had trusted me," Hiccup reminded his winged friend. He knows that was low but he had to try something that would have the dragon to agree. Toothless shakes his head in disbelief while his pupils widen back to normal. He did not like that his wingless friend had said that.

"Look bud I'll still ride on you to Berk, but I'm going to need you to help Dagur and Eret with taking out the guards. While I'll be sneaking into where Grimmel, Alvin, Viggo, and Johann are hiding at to-," Hiccup explains but before he could finish Toothless once again interrupted him with his tail slap on the back of his head. "Toothless, I've got to try to talk reason into them. Plus, if this is a trap, you'll be able to save me without being caught yourself," Hiccup reasoning with his dragon while he silently praying to the Gods that his dragon would cooperate. Toothless rolls his eyes at the statement made from his best friend. The nightly dragon knows that his human is always looking for the good in everyone that his human meets.

"If you don't help me with this? I just might have to cut your fish portion in half," Hiccup teasingly threaten. Toothless did not only tail slap the former heir the back of his head, but also licked him on the cheek. One of the most important things for Toothless was his tasty fish. He would not allow anybody to mess with his food, even if that someone is Hiccup. "Ouch and also you know that your saliva doesn't wash out," Hiccup replies while he tries to wipe off the dragon saliva off his face. Toothless sits on his hind legs and laughs because he knows his human is only teasing him about his fish, but he was not going to let that slide. Hiccup was having a difficult time getting the saliva off.
