Secert of the Night

Chapter 31/Tobias explains about his past

Tobias

Wait, Thyra is adopted by my dad? Boy, she has no idea about me. "You're my adoptive brother, right?" She asks me. I looked at the young Viking with a strange look. "What are you talking about?" "Well, you do look like my Dad." I chuckled, "Oh, that. Well, that's because I am his son, actually." She sat down next to her Razorwhip, "Really? Not kidding, right?" I blushed, "Yeah. My real name is actually Stoick Hayden Haddock, The Dragon Guardian. This is my family. The girl over there, that's Sliva, and our youngest son, Hayden. This is the isle I used to live in before I lived in Berk." Thyra was curious, "Why didn't you come visit?" I shrugged, "I have to raise my family. Being a Guardian is a great-" "Responsibility. I heard that phrase so many times. Not the way you say it. Dad told me the same way bout being the next Chief of the Strike Clan." "The what clan?" I asked. The Razorwhip said, "It's a tribe that Hiccup made. He's the Chief." "Really?" I asked in amazement. Thyra laughs at me. "Oh, that's not all." Suddenly, I saw Toothless! "Toothless! It's been a while." I said. The Alpha laughs, "Same thing to you. Thyra, you all right? Hiccup sent me to find you." Thyra rubbed her head in embarrassment, just like I do when I was in trouble. "He's not flying yet, isn't he?" "He is and he might be landing here in 3... 2... 1..." As right on cue, I saw a brown Night Fury landed next to Toothless. Who is this Night Fury? Thyra seems to not surprised. "H-Hey, Dad." she said, stuttering. Wait, did she say "Dad?"

Hiccup

Yikes! I never thought of seeing Tobias like this. Thyra sighs as if she knew coming in as a Night Fury was a little bit over the edge. "H-hey, Dad." She stutters. Tobias was in total shock and I shifted into my human self. "Thyra Elizabeth Haddock, you have some explaining to do." I scolded her. She rubbed her head, "Uh, Hiccup, how about we talk about this later, because Tobias is a little bit shocked." I see him in total surprise and I blushed. "Oh. Got ya." I said. Toothless said, "We should get inside." We went inside and Tobias was still staring at me. "Oh, hi, Stoick. It's been a while." I said, casually as I possibly can. "So... you are a Night Fury? That's a new one." I laughed. "It's been a wild tale I give you that. So, does Hayden inherit your powers yet?" Tobias shrugged. "No, he hasn't yet. I think he has no clue that he has the power as I do." Thyra looks at me as if I spoke in a different language. "Hiccup, what you talking about?" "You know the story about Dad, right?" Tobias asks her. She nods, "Yes. It's quite famous in the Archipelagos." That's when I spoke up. "Well, there's another story in my life I didn't tell you or Aden. You see, before you were even born, Tobias was originally heir of Berk." Tobias chuckled, "Yeah, I was quite the same as you are. I just didn't fit in with Berk and the lifestyle of Dragons until I met Darklite. I knew that I had to keep him safe, I sorta run away for five years. Then I returned back to stop Viggo." That's when Thyra said, "Uncle Viggo wanted to attack Berk? Wow, I didn't know that. Well, what a small world." Tobias was confused of why she called him Uncle. I explained, "Thyra is Viggo's biological neice so, basically Viggo is family now." Tobias seems uncertain hearing that. "Uh, Viggo was the one who cut off my leg, remember?" He asks. "I'm sure he has an explanation right? So, about you being a Dragon Guardian.. what's that about?" Thyra asks. "Well, Manny, the Moon, is a spirit Guardian. He gave me a power and I became a Guardian, protector of Children and fought Pitch Black." I heard gasp from Thyra. "You meant the Guardians? You actually met them?" "Yeah, Dad used to fight alongside them and so did I. Ever since my sister, Camicazi became a Chief to her own tribe, we hid away from trouble, but we always watched Hiccup from a distance. Although, becoming a Night Fury... that I don't get." Thyra laughs, "You really need some catching up." 

Thyra

Hard to believe that Tobias is really Hiccup's child long ago, and he'll be a big brother soon. I wonder if Astrid told Hic about their unborn child yet. Well, I guess that she'll reveal it in her own time. Hiccup and I explained to Tobias about everything we been through and when we finished, Tobias said, "Wow. That is a lot of trouble in our family, isn't?" I laughed, "You have no idea. I guess we have to wait until the storm clears out. It's not safe to fly." Hiccup said, curious, "So, how did you and Lilith ended up in Haddock Paradise anyway?" I rubbed my head, "Well, we were struck by lighting in our flight, and crash-landed here." Hic sighs, "Why am I not surprised? We always wind up in dangerous situations, right?" I smiled at him, "Right." I saw that Tobias wasn't looking at Hiccup. He was looking at the clouds outside. I decided to talk to him. "Hey. You seemed distracted. What's on your mind?" I asked him. He said, "It's a lot to take in. Dad is a Night Fury and a Chief of his own Tribe, and you... You're my adoptive sister." I said, "I guess that it's destiny that we meet." He suddenly laughs. "You know, Cindy told me the exact same thing before we left Berk." As I was about to reply, I saw Aden! "A-Aden!" I stammered. "Thyra! There's something you need to see." If Aden is here, I knew right then, something must be wrong back home.
