"Alright so what's the problem Hiccup?" Snotlout asked with a yawn and put his feet up on the table. "Why are you waking us up at this unearthly hour?"

"Well it's obviously important." Fishlegs said shoving Snotlout's feet off the table before turning to Hiccup and Astrid. "So what's the news?"

"This." Astrid answered, tossing a drawing onto the table. The drawing was of a Razorwhip surrounded by a pack of wolves and sitting on it's back was a hooded rider holding an axe in one hand and holding it up.

"Okay that's cool, but what does it mean?" Fishlegs asked studying the picture

"Apparently from the reports of other villagers this dragon rider rides a Razorwhip and leads a pack of wolves." Astrid said picking up another paper and passed it around.

"Could it be Heather?" Snotlout asked.

"No it can't be her. This rider wears this copper and gold armor and her Razorwhip is the same color as her armor." Hiccup explained.

"Wait a sec this is a girl?" Eret asked surprised.

"Yeah she is. People call her the Wolf Queen because she talks to the wolves." No. It's can't be.

"Has anyone seen how she looks like?"

"Nope." Astrid replied shaking her head. "No one has seen her She always covers her face. Apparently she attacks dragon trappers, dragon hunters and anyone who works for Drago which in my opinion is a good thing."

"Where has she struck so far?" Eret asked grabbing a map and laying it out.

"Those places with the x'es." Hiccup said pointing to each one and looked at him. "Why?"

"My father once said before he died that someone called the Wolf Queen will be one of the many of Drago's downfall." Eret confessed. "Apparently whatever is a dying man's last words are like prophesies  that come true in time."

"So your dad predicted that some crazy vigilante with wolves will be his downfall?" Snotlout asked skeptically.

"One of the many. My guess that there are others who would team up with her." Eret corrected him. "I'd help her because Drago murdered my father and my grandmother right in front of me and one of his dragons killed my baby sister and mother in front of my little sister Lupa."

"You had a sister?" Ruffnut asked looking surprised.

"I helped her escape from the fort when we were children. She'd be around eighteen by now if, assuming that she's still alive." Bret said with his voice cracking.

"Then we'll help you find her." Hiccup said rising from his seat and everyone else rose with him.

"Y-you'd all actually do that?" Eret asked shocked and was even more so when they nodded.

"We'll help you find the Wolf Queen to avenge your family and find your sister." Astrid added with a nod.

"How hard can it be?" Tuft said with a laugh. "All we gotta do is find a girl version of Eret."

"Lupa had  orange brown hair and green eyes for your information and we look nothing alike. She takes after our mum and I took after my father." Eret said rolling his eyes.

"Well we're screwed." Snotlout said. "But we'll still help."

"Good." Eret said, rising from his chair. "Let's get started. Today."
