This story takes place after the Netflix series Race to the Edge episodes 10 and 11, have dragons will travel pt 1 and 2. It is my alternate after ending and so on. The story does not follow season 2 and on of race to the edge. I know this is a horrible description but i suck at writing descriptions so... give it a chance.

(Continued after episode 26, Dragons Race To The Edge. May contain spoilers. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.) Hiccup watched the horizon as a Dragon Trapper ship sailed away. Viggo and Ryker were long gone, the Dragon Eye in their possession. But what was worrying the gang was that Hiccup was not himself. Astrid was worried for him, the other Riders not seen how he reacted when Astrid told him he was long gone . . .

If you thought I was giving up on Hiccup, I wasn't. I will never. We've been through so much. When I get my hands on Merida, I'm not showing her any mercy. She can't steal other people's happiness just for her own. I'm finding you Hiccup, don't worry. I won't give up. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ IF YOU HAVEN'T READ UNEXPECTED, SHUT THIS BOOK AND READ IT I SAY! YOU WILL BE CONFUSED AS HAY! :) Enjoy the second book for the readers who have read my first book :)

What happens when you finally realize that the one you think you'll love for the rest of the life, was just right by your side? Specifically taming dragons and sharpening our tools? I never thought I'd look at Hiccup this way. It's unexpected, I guess.
