"Ah, this is the life." Luna whispered.

She kept her wings in a gliding like motion, barely flapping them to give her more speed.

"I know. I can't wait for my rider to find out about you." Toothless smirked as his twin grinned playfully.

"I wish Leyla would record that!" Luna hollered.

"If you stay in the flying motion you're in, Luna, I bet I can draw his reaction and we can show Dak and Astrid." Leyla hummed.

"I can manage that, Leyla." Luna told Leyla then turned to her twin. "Ready bro?" she grinned cheekily.

Toothless's response was a grin of his own as he took off. "Leyla, hold on tight!" Luna reminded Leyla as she removed her camouflage and flapped her wings.

Hiccup, from his solid spot on Toothless's back, heard her wing beats and looked around confused. "Toothless, bud? Is there another dragon or something?" he asked his dragon.

Toothless gave Hiccup a gummy smile and bobbed his black head up and down. So there is another dragon? "Is it a dragon I would know?" he asked. Stupid. Of course it wouldn't be a dragon you know! You only know Stormfly, Hookfang, Barch, Meatlug, and Sharpshot!

The Night Fury shook his head and kept flying until he landed on a sea-stack. Not even a minute later, the other unknown dragon landed on the sea-stack behind him. Hiccup squinted his eyes as he noticed the girl who found the Belzium Gobber needed, jump off the unknown dragon.

His own dragon nuzzled the other one happily. Are they mates? He must've said that aloud because the two dragons and the girl, Leyla, he recalled; all stared at him with are-you-serious type of looks.

"They aren't mates. They're siblings. Twins to be exact." Leyla spoke aloud. "Meet Luna, a Light Fury." she smiled.

A Light Fury? Wow, she's beautiful. "Hi there." he said and held out his hand in his famous trusting a dragon motion.

"Can I trust him?" Luna asked her twin.

"Underneath the dorky dragon nerd is the kindest Viking us dragons have ever known! So yes, you can trust him sis." Toothless replied.

Leyla hummed softly. She had caught every word of their conversation but decided to keep quiet about the fact she could understand them loud and clear. It seemed to be the right thing to do.

"Tell me, how did you train her?" Hiccup asked her.

Shoot! What do I say?! I didn't her at all, Astrid did! I only trained Summer and the others with Dak. Luna and Stormfly were both trained by Astrid...ugh I don't know what to do!

"She didn't train me." Luna muttered. "Astrid did." she made the mistake of saying that very name.

Her twin stared at her in shock. "ASTRID TRAINED YOU? THE ASTRID HOFFERSON, TRAINED A DRAGON?! THE ASTRID HOFFERSON MY RIDER IS MADLY IN LOVE WITH?!!" Toothless roared.

Luna brought her tail across her brother's head and slapped him across the face with it. "Do you know of any other Astrid's?" she said sarcastically.

Leyla giggled. "I didn't know you did." she laughed slightly.

"What?" Hiccup stared at her with a confused expression.

"Nothing. Just Luna and Toothless being silly." Leyla lied.

(Flashback, unknown)

"Hiccup?!" Astrid shouted.

She was shocked and confused. Why was he here when he needed to be in the village.

"What are you doing here?" she asked.

"Looking for you?" Hiccup replied in a signature questionable tone of voice.

Astrid folded her arms across her chest and raised an eyebrow; secretly hoping he'd give in to her look. Luckily for her, he did.

"I heard you trained a dragon." he admitted. "The same way I trained Toothless."

"Yeah, and?" she asked. "What's your point, Hiccup?"

Hiccup sighed and tried to give her a response but found he couldn't say a single word. Astrid scoffed and leapt onto the bare back of her beloved Nadder. "I knew it. It's pointless to you. Training dragons while amazing; also dangerous. Just," she sighed, "be careful and keep Toothless safe." she gave him a sad smile before Stormfly jumped into the air; spreading her unique blue and yellow wings as she did so.

The isle of Berk would never see Astrid Hofferson again. At least she hoped to never return to her new former home.

"Let's find a new home, shall we Stormfly?" she asked aloud and used her right hand to lean down and pat Stormfly on her blue scaled neck.

The Nadder squawked in response to her. "I take that as a yes." Astrid smiled.

(Flashback ends, present day—500 miles away from Berk)

"Sir! I have news!" a voice spoke. It was loud and had quite a Viking-like accent to his voice.

He ran into his boss's headquarters with a scroll held up in the air by his right hand. He was waving it frantically as he ran. "Yes, what is it?" he heard his boss reply.

The man stopped running and started panting heavily. "There's been reports of a Fury roaming around wild! They say it's untamed and that it's, get this, SCARY!" the man whined at the last part.

"Scary? What are you, a one year old babe? Man up, it's just a dragon." his boss snarled.

"It isn't just a dragon, sir! It's a Fury! A fury hybrid to be exact!" the man whimpered in freight.

"A Fury Hybrid? I haven't seen one of those in ages. They're rare." his boss mumbled. "Show me, now!" he demanded.

"Y...yes sir!" the man replied.

He clumsily fumbled with a picture of a black and blue dragon that had a unique body type. "What type of Fury Hybrid is this?!" the boss shouted. "This looks like it's just a Night Fury!"

"It's the offspring of the two fastest dragons in the world." the man admitted, sheepishly.

"The Swiftwing and the Night Fury? Dear Thor, we just found our prize. Set a course for the Swift Fury! I want that dragon captured, now!" the boss snapped.

"Yes sir!" his fellow Vikings replied.

The Swift Fury will be mine soon. Then, I will sell it to the highest bidder for the highest amount of gold! I'LL BE RICH! Haha.
