Hiccup and I were smiling and the dragons started getting anxious. I too felt dizzy after the dancing but put it off as we raced outside to see the trappers had found us. "We have to protect the dragons!" Mom said as we got on our dragons. We took off and that's when the others burst out of traps. "Snotlout!" I called as we flew past. "Eira! Please don't do that again! What happened." He asked. "Catching up with my mom! She's alive!" I said happily even as I felt dizzy again and clutched shadowfang who landed as the others fought. "I don't know what's wrong shadow. Keeps us low but away from the others!" I said drawing my bow. I watched with my heart beating in my chest like a war drum as not only were alpha dragons fighting. Mom was trying to stop it and dad was fighting Drago. Then moms alpha was beaten. "No!" I gasped as mom was being chased. Mom and dad landed next to me. "Eira what are you doing lass?" Dad asked as he saw me grounded and under my dragon. "I'm too dizzy to fight in the sky." I said. "Stoic she's in no shape to fight. She's ..." Mom said making me look at her confused and dads eyes widen in understanding before we heard a man shouting my brother was facing Drago and toothless was acting weird as my dragon flew off. "Hiccup!" We shouted racing towards him. Dad was faster though as just pushed hiccup out of the way as toothless blasted him. "Dad!" I cried as mom and hiccup reached him. "No. Please no." I sobbed as I reached them and tucked myself under his arm. Snotlout was beside me then as I cried. I heard hiccup shouting but I didn't care.

Gobber lead the Viking burial and hiccup and I shot the fiery arrows. "May the Valkyries welcome you and lead you through Odin's great battlefield. May they sing your name with love and fury, so that we might hear it rise from the depths of Valhalla and know that you've taken your rightful place at the table of kings. For a great man has fallen: A warrior. A chieftain. A father. A friend." Gobber said "and a grandfather." Mom added softly that hiccup and I could hear her shocking me. Hiccup was so lost as he now had to be chief. "You both came early into this world. Such wee things, so frail and fragile. I feared you both wouldn't make it. But your father never doubted it and knew you would become the strongest chief of them all. And Eira had wrapped herself around his finger the moment you opened your eyes. And hiccup he was right. You have a heart of a chief and the soul of a dragon." Mom said as she stood with hiccup and I. I moved back to snotlout who hugged me. "We are going back. Eira you are not fighting. We will leave you at the edge. On our way back." Hiccup said. "No. That man killed our father. I want to be there! I have to be there!" I snapped as snotlout and the others looked confused. "I'm not risking loosing a new generation... snotlout back me up here!" Hiccup said frustrated. "I don't know what your talking about hiccup. Plus we don't have dragons!" Snotlout said. "Later hiccup. We have to go now or we won't catch up!" I said knowing what he was thinking.
