------------------------------------------------------------

"Just a little higher! There, nice job Fanghook!" Gustav smiled as his dragon placed the decoration. It was getting close to the fifth snoggletog at peace with dragons, and everyone was getting ready early so their dragons can have their own holiday.

He looked at all the vikings and dragons alike, setting up their pretty decorations. Tomorrow the dragons would leave.

Then seven days later, snoggletog will be celebrated. That's a long time without dragons but they had survived for the past six years. As if on cue, Stoick called for everyone's attention.

"As you all know, the dragons will be leaving tomorrow to 'celebrate their own holiday' as my son so named. Please be ready and say goodbye tonights. Thank you." The vikings nodded and some patter their dragons.

"Hey, Gustav" Astrid came up behind him suddenly.

"Oh, hey Mrs Haddock" Ever since the mishap on dragons edge, the young boy started calling the elder dragon riders miss and mister, but in this case Astrid Mrs because she is married. Snotlout loved hearing that, Hiccup got slightly annoyed and the rest seemed unfazed.

"How's the decoration going?" Astrid asked

"Alright. Fanghook really helps it go faster" She laughed

"Yeah, dragons do help make some seemingly impossible tasks possible" She looked around.

"I gotta go. Catch you later!" She ran off and he saw her going after her husband Hiccup. He frowned. If only he were him she were running towards with a happy smile. That would never be.

"Astrid, just in time! I was about to look for you" Hiccup exclaimed as she ran up to him.

"Oh really? I have impeccable timing then" She smirked

"Can you do something for me? Get the you know what ready?"

"Of course" At that, she ran off

"Careful!" Hiccup yelled after her. Astrid rolled her eyes and continued on her journey.

"What was that all about son?" Stoick questioned, walking up to him

"Nothing, I just wanna make sure she doesn't run into wild terrible terrors on her trip in the forest" Stoick could tell it was a lie but Hiccup made a dash for their house before he could interrogate. He still couldn't believe his son was twenty and married proudly to the bravest women to offer. Hiccup was chief but he happily told his dad he could still make orders if needed or wished.

Other then that, he runs this village better than ever. Stoick never doubted him.

The days went by, and snoggletog was a blast with Hiccups new idea. They played a whole bunch of games that brought the village together as a family of one. Stoick was beaming with delight.

Everything changed the day after the dragons returned.

"Hiccup!" Stoick called, walking into his house. Someone needed him right away.

"Son, Sven needs you!" No one was downstairs, so he headed upstairs. When he reached the top no one was home. What worries him, was the fact that Toothless' riding gear was still on top of his rock slab.

"Oh no" Stoick was starting to freak, his son wouldn't go anywhere without Toothless, and Toothless couldn't fly without Hiccup and the riding gear. He raced downstairs and out the door.

The first person that he saw just so happened to be someone his son talked to every morning.

"Heather, have you seen my son?" He demanded. She shook her head

"No, yesterday night when he and Astrid were at Fishlegs' and I's house for dinner, he told us that they couldn't have dinner at there house tonight" Heather said

Stoick nodded slightly and started walked into the town more. Heather was close behind. Snotlout just so happened to be heading towards the chiefs house.

"Stoick, what's wrong?" He asked

"Hiccup wasn't at home, his riding gear was still there and I didn't see him in town"

"That's weird, because Astrid was supposed to be at the academy this morning but Stormfly came flying in alone, Astrid never came" At that, Stoick gripped the rider's shoulders roughly.

"Go around town, tell everyone to meet at the hall"

"I haven't seen him anywhere either!"

"Where could he be?"

"We need our chief!"

"Be quiet!" Stoick yelled, making the bickering end.

"I will be acting chief until they are found. It is very important that it happens alright?!" Everyone nodded.

"We first search the woods. Than we search the ocean and islands around us." Everyone nodded once more. Snotlout stood next to Stoick and exclaimed;

"We are not stopping until they are found am I right people?!"

"Right!" The entire hall has filled with cheers of determination.

Two months went by.

Three months went by.

Five months went by.

And still no sign of Hiccup or Astrid. Everyone was losing hope. Even Snotlout had stopped looking four and a half months ago after the disappearance. Pretty soon the others followed. Next thing Stoick knew his brother had to him to stop looking.

"Stoick please"

"No I won't stop until I find them!"

"It's been 9 months. I think we have to call it off"

"Your son and daughter in law didn't disappear. Mine did!"

"Stoick!" Spitelout grabbed his brother's arm. "I'm sorry, but I don't think we'll find them. I- I hate to say this- but I believe they are never going to be found. Go home now, you need sleep," He sighed.

"I guess you're right about the sleep part"

Spitelout smiled and Stoick reluctantly went home. Even if he was going home he never told Spitelout he would stop searching, he would keep searching until Hiccup and Astrid are found. Nothing can tell him otherwise.

I hope you enjoyed this first part of the story.
