"Where did you learn that trick?" Lupa asked as her dragon and wolves walked away.

"From my friends." Eret answered, pointing to the gang. "First time I ever did that was with Stormfly, the Nadder."

"Impressive." Luna said with a nod. "Well, I guess I should get going now. I got dragons to save, evil dragon hunters to take down and a tyrant to murder."

"Lupa wait." Eret said, grabbing his sister's wrist. "Don't leave, I just found you!"

"Eret, I have a mission to fulfill. If I don't stop this, who will? No one in Drago's army was brave enough to run away and fight him, you saw what he did to our family! He killed our parents, he killed our grandmother, and for gods sake he killed our baby sister and numerous other families!"

"You've done so much already! And you are wanted!" Eret argued, pulling out the drawing Hiccup had shown them all earlier with a description at the bottom why she was wanted. "As your brother it's my job to keep you safe, this job is not safe!"

"You helped me escape to be safe, but you swore that when we were together again we would stick together like a pack."

"I know I did, but I am not going to let some asshole kill you for 2,000 runes! Come back with me Lupa, come back with me to Berk. You'll be safe there!"

Lupa looked to the people who her brother called his friends. Their dragons stood by them, watching Fern warily as she glared at them with her acid green eyes. They seemed nice and friendly enough...but could she trust them?

One of the dragons, a pretty blue and yellow female Nadder, trotted away from the group and approached Fern slowly before laying down in front of her with her spiked tail tucked under her body. It gave a little coo to her and gently pressed her head to the floor to expose the back of her neck. Fern looked at the dragon in puzzlement before carefully walking around her. One of the other dragons, a female Gronckle, waddled over to Fern and rubbed her head affectionately against her copper scales. Fern gave a little startled noise before scurrying over to Lupa in attempt to hide herself. Normally Fern would snap and snarl at any dragon who got to close but none had ever approached her in a friendly fashion the way the Gronckle did or showed her they weren't a threat the way the Nadder did.

"Aww, it's okay girl, they're trying to be friendly!" Lupa laughed as her dragon looked at her nervously for help.

"And you don't have to worry about them biting you, Meatlug is especially friendly to all dragons!" The chubby blonde Viking added happily.

"Lupa, I do not want to resort to using the puppy face on you to make you change your mind." Eret warned as a small smile crept up on his lips.

"Then don't, I'm a lone wolf anyways." Lupa retorted and glared at him.

"I'll be your favorite brother!"

"You're my only brother and cousin!"

"I'll let you ride Skullcrusher!"

"I have a way cooler dragon- no offense Skullcrusher."

The two siblings began to bicker back and forth while Fern and Skullcrusher sat off to the side to watch them and Lupa's wolves decided to curl up with them.

"These two fight just as bad as the twins, minus the punching and kicking." Snotlout muttered loudly.

"You my friend are just jealous that you don't have an older or younger sister to argue like that." Tuffnut snickered and Snotlout made a face.

"I don't need a sister, I've got...Gustav!"

"Who's busy smushing faces with Arsyn Hofferson~!" Ruffnut snickered and Astrid shot them a look.

"Arsyn is not in love with Gustav, she's way too smart to fall for him." She hissed and the twins shrugged.

"Well the other day I did see them...holding hands..." Fishlegs admitted and gave a yelp with Astrid grabbed Snotlout by his fur.

"YOU TELL YOUR BROTHER TO KEEP HIS FILTHY HANDS OFF MY LITTLE SISTER!" Astrid yelled, causing Eret and Lupa to momentarily stop arguing.

"Are they always like that?" Lupa asked her brother in a low voice.

"Not all the time, but it happens." Eret replied. "So, you coming or not?"

"I'll think on it, these sort of decisions take a lot of time."

"Fine, but once you come you'll like Berk."
