Hiccup's POV:

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

"I'm on it!" Ruff said as she flew towards the ocean for more water with Tuff.

"I'm on it first!" Tuff argued back.

"Fishlegs, go get the Thunderdrums round up." I ordered. He nodded and flew away. Thunderdrums have large mouths so they can collect water and drop in on the twins house. We have been trying to put this house out for an hour but it just won't stop burning I don't understand.

"Go Gobber!" I heard Astrid yell. Oh no. What is she doing now?

"Got it!" He said as he ran with a bunch of pipes towards the ocean. Astrid flew up holding one end of the wooden pipes on Stormfly. She connected the pipes above the house.

"NOW!" She yelled and Gobber twisted some handle or something. Suddenly it began raining over the house. Astrid made a water system. She sat on top of her Nadder with her arms crossed smiling at her work. The gang stopped behind me and had the same face expression. We landed to see the house no longer burning and the water stopped.

"Now that, was something I thought I would never see." Snotlout said.

"I'm not bad at putting out fires!" Astrid reminded.

"Not anymore." The twins said at the same time.

"See. I can be helpful." She boasted. The others walked into the twins house to check the damage while I stayed there with Astrid.

"That is actually a really smart idea Astrid." I said.

"Why thank you." She smiled.

"I guess some of your ideas are good." I said.

"All my ideas are good. The dragon racing, the yaknog, the missing toe, the dragon eggs..." I cut her off.

"And top of the line fire prevention if I do say so myself." I smiled. She blushed.

"OUR WELL STUFFED YAK!" I heard Tuff yell.

"ITS RUINED!" Ruff continued. Me and Astrid laughed.

"OH COME ON THE PILE OF SHARK TEETH TOO!" They both yelled. I don't even wanna know.

"OW WHAT THE?" We heard Snotlout yell.

"OH DONT SIT ON THE!...." Ruff shouted. We still heard them from inside.

"OW!" Snotlout screamed.

"The pine nut couch..." Tuff finished.

"They have a couch made out of pine nuts." Astrid laughed.

"They really are nuts." I laughed with her.

"That's why their Ruffnut and Tuffnut!" She laughed now almost to falling point.

"What did we tell you about the nut jokes." Tuff said leaning his head around the corner. He must have heard us.

"Yeah, you're right Tuff. Their nut funny." I laughed. I am on a roll.

"Hahahaha!" Astrid fell over.

----time skip----

"We are struggling with food Stoick. We can't fish fast enough." Gobber told dad as we walked out the house door.

"The dragons have the all-you-can-eat feeding stations. Just take some fish from there." He said.

"Their um, empty." Gobber stuttered.

"What?" He turned to him while I continued to stand there awkwardly.

"Empty." He repeated.

"Hiccup!" Dad called me.
