Stoick's POV

I was helping the Dragonwalkers in the village while preparing for my son's wedding this upcoming Snoggletog. "Thank you for helping us here, Dad," My daughter named Hannah said. "It's no problem. I'm proud of my son for what he'd become," I said. "True," She replied. She then starts to hum a song I never heard. It sounds beautiful. "What's that song you are singing? I never heard that one before," I asked. "This song is also one of the Dragonwalkers' traditional songs. But this one is about the history of the ancestral leaders, their friends, and this kingdom," She explained. "Follow me and I'll tell you more," She said and I followed her to the Great Hall and gestured to the tapestries of the ancestors. "As you know, when Mum was born, Dragon Hunters invaded the island and the people in it fled or turned into stone, right?" Hannah said and I nodded. "Well, you see, that wasn't the first time we Dragonwalkers have war. There is once with this guy," She explained as she points at the man with red hair and freckled and a Light Fury with scarlet eyes. "Ginger the Pure is one of the ancestors who had the first war... With his human friends," She explained as she opens a chest which was in front of the tapestry and find a book before opening it to read.

"Today was the day my friends and I are ready to take off and fight in the Dark Inferno War. My friends are proudly prepared. But for me... I was afraid. I cannot let them fall into the hands of Luke, my brother-in-law, and a twin brother to my wife, Lily. I had a weird feeling that something isn't right about his magic if he had a plan to put in. But, I must find out."

"I knew this would come! Why didn't they realize it? I made a barrier around my friends to be safe from the destruction after Luke stole our Dragon Medals, and then, we disappeared. I don't know what happened to them, but I'm glad that I'm okay. Luke will find us sooner than later. So, I decided to become a healer of a nearby village, and then on, looking for some answers."

"When I reach the age of 45, there are travelers who are trying to find my island and go to defeat Luke. I convince my chief to let me go with them but he refused because I'm their healer. So, I had to run away and follow those travelers. I met them afterward and we went on a trip together to stop him. I wish I could reveal myself and introduce myself as the prince of the Dragonwalkers."

"I finally revealed myself in front of Luke and my friends, the travelers. Luke was shocked when he saw me and wanted to attack me, but I used my powers to protect myself and the travelers. Once Luke was now gone, drowned into the ocean from the high peak, all of my people were set free from becoming stone. Since my kingdom was now back, I convinced the travelers to become one of them as a thank you for saving the kingdom, and they agreed. Despite that the Dragonwalkers are safe, I still need to find my friends and my wife. I will promise that I will find them. In the meantime, I will give my kingdom to my people, where no kings or queens to rule and be free from the darkness. Whereas, my kingdom is their kingdom."

After Hannah reads the book, she puts it back to where it belongs. "That was an eventful story," I spoke. "Yup. Totally," Hannah replied. Just then, the door opened to find Hiccup's best friends, Marionette and Ainar. "Hannah, you're going on a rescue mission with your mom," Marionette said. "Again," Ainar continued. I saw Hannah groan. "Can I have a break for just one day?" She muttered as she leave the Great Hall. I sighed and shook my head. 'Kids are always boar-headed these days,' I thought.

3rd Person's POV

Ingrid looks towards beyond the sea by the cliff watching the sunset my the horizon until she heard someone coming. "Would you mind if I sit here?" It was Astrid. The mother gestures to go ahead and she sat next to her. "So... Dad's gone..." The Light Fury spoke. "Yeah. He's gone," Ingrid said. "Do you still want to come back here?" She asked. "Well, now that they're gone, I'd say I will stay," Her mother said. "But, what about Berk?" That is the question Ingrid was confused about. "I should ask Stoick about it," She replied making Astrid smile. Once the sun is gone from the horizon, the mother and daughter former-Hoffersons went back to the village. "You know, not bad for a dragon to be at the end of the world," Ingrid joked and Astrid laughed.

It was dinner time, everyone are scattered around the Great Hall feasting for their meal. Ingrid convinced Stoick to let her stay and he agreed as long as she and the riders visited Berk once and a while. Hiccup and Astrid's hatchlings are getting hyperactive these days as they are hanging around with their grandparents. Hiccup smiled knowing that his family was whole again.

Snotlout's POV

The wedding came a few days later and the Fury rulers went to Arcadia for the honeymoon. I sigh. 'I wish I could come back to Berk so I'll make things right,' I thought. "Thinking about Berk?" I turned around to find my Aunt Valka. "Yeah. If Hiccup must stay here, would that means I'm still an heir at Berk?" I questioned. "It depends on what you decide," She answered with a smile on her face. "You know, I still wanna come back to Berk to see our old people and etcetera," She continued. "But, how will my dad react when I came back?" I asked. "Don't worry. We'll cover it up for you," She said.

3rd Person's POV

The following days by, Stoick, Valka, Gobber, and Snotlout are ready on flying back to Berk. They bid Hiccup and Astrid goodbye once they got back from their honeymoon and they flew off towards the clouds. Hiccup embraces Astrid as they watch them leave before going back to their business. "Still, I'll miss them," Hiccup said to his new wife as they walk down the plaza. "I know, but at least you still have us," Astrid replied when they noticed their kids approaching them. All of them laugh as they went on a family bond together. One last glance at the sky and say, "Signe, thank you for our second chance," He soon went back home with his family.

Stoick, Valka, Gobber, and Snotlout got back to Berk and the Villagers were shocked to see Valka and Snotlout alive. Spitelout tries to encounter his son but he was held back by Stoick's order. Stoick convinced everyone that he'll explain what happened and how. Afterward, everyone was shocked that Hiccup was still alive. However, the chief told them that he can't come back due to being the king of dragons. With Snotlout being the heir and chief, he vows and promises to his cousin that he'll do something right and fix some mistakes that can provide.

Everything worked out in the end. The only thing missing is its future.
