Stoick: "Well, I can show my face in public again! If someone had told me that in just few short weeks, Hiccup would go from being, well... Hiccup, to placing first in Dragon Training... Well, I would've tied him to a mast and shipped him off for fear he'd gone mad. Yes! And you know it! But here we are. And no one's more surprised...or more proud than I am. Today, my boy becomes a Viking. TODAY, HE BECOMES ONE OF US!"

Ymir stood idly near the entrance, her nerves growing more as time goes on. Hiccup had to kill a dragon. Infront of the entire village... Infront of his father. There was nothing he could do. The brunette turned to the boy, who was even more nervous.

Ymir: "Hic..."

Hiccup: "Yes?"

She walks over to the boy, adjusting the helmet on his head, smiling at him.

Ymir: "Please be careful..."

Hiccup smiled at her, he placed his hands on either side of her face and rested his forehead on hers. The two stood there, breathing in each other as if he was going off to war. He kinda was actually.

Hiccup: "I will... Promise..." He whispered.

Astrid: "Oh, hey! Hiccup!"

Quickly, the two let go of each other as the blonde approached. Astrid walked up to him.

Astrid: "Be careful with that dragon."

Hiccup: "It's not the dragon I'm worried about." He says looking at Stoick. Ymir follows his gaze to witness the large ginger man smiling with pride. Knowing about Toothless could break his heart.

Astrid: "What are you gonna do?"

Hiccup: "Put an end to this."

She eyes him, dubious.

Hiccup: "I have to try. Astrid, if something goes wrong... just make sure they don't find Toothless."

Ymir quickly turned to look back at Hiccup with a shocked expression. What does he mean?! Why couldn't she take care of Toothless? Why...

Astrid: "I will. Just... promise me it won't go wrong."

Hiccup turned to look at his best friend who was currently biting her lower lip in frustration. To think... That after everything that had happened, he still chose Astrid. How pathetic could she be...

Gobber: "It's time, Hiccup. Knock him dead."

Tuffnut: "Show 'em how it's done, my man!"

Ymir: "Good luck..."

Hiccup enters the Arena and picks a dagger from the weapons stand.

Stoick: "Hrmph. I would've gone for the hammer."

Ymir watches anxiously, her hands clasped together as she brought her hands to her mouth.

Ymir: "Please Odin... Let him survive..."

Suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder, pulling her into a side hug. She turned to see Astrid, looking at the boy with worry and fear in her eyes as well

Astrid: "He'll be fine..."

Ymir stared at the blonde for a moment before nodding and turning back to the task at hand.

Hiccup: "I'm ready."

They release the Monstrous Nightmare. Hiccup approaches the Nightmare slowly, raising his hand like how he did to Toothless. Ymir smiled at the sight.

Stoick: "What is he doing?"

Hiccup: "It's okay. It's okay."

He throws helmet onto the ground
