How to Train Your Dragon 2 Page #3

Synopsis: It's been five years since Hiccup and Toothless successfully united dragons and vikings on the island of Berk. While Astrid, Snotlout and the rest of the gang are challenging each other to dragon races (the island's new favorite contact sport), the now inseparable pair journey through the skies, charting unmapped territories and exploring new worlds. When one of their adventures leads to the discovery of a secret ice cave that is home to hundreds of new wild dragons and the mysterious Dragon Rider, the two friends find themselves at the center of a battle to protect the peace. Now, Hiccup and Toothless must unite to stand up for what they believe while recognizing that only together do they have the power to change the future of both men and dragons.

- Ah, good one.

Aye, we laughed, too...

Until he wrapped himself in

his cloak and cried out,

- "then see how well you do without me!"

- See how well you do without me!

The rooftop suddenly burst

into flames, and from it,

armored dragons descended,

burning the hall to the ground.

I...

Was the only one to escape.

Men who kill without reason

cannot be reasoned with.

- Maybe.

- Hiccup!

I'm still going to try.

This is what I'm good at, and-and

if I could change your mind,

I can change his, too.

Come on.

- Let's go.

- No! Lead the others back to Berk.

I've had enough mutiny for one day.

Ooh, I like that.

Ruffnut!

Okay!

Don't worry, bud. I'm not gonna

let anything happen to you.

I promise.

Aw, come on, Dad. Really?

Okay.

No sudden moves.

Hold on, hold on.

Toothless...!

Hey! You left my dragon back there!

He can't fly on his own! He'll drown!

Hey! Uh...

We have to head back for my dragon!

Who are you?

The dragon thief?

Uh... Drago Bludvist?

Do you even understand

what I'm saying?

Toothless! Oh, it's okay,

it's okay, it's okay.

I'm glad to see you, too, bud.

You really had me worried there.

Uh, uh...

Oh...

Hiccup?

Uh...

C- could it be?

After all these years?

How is this possible?

Uh, should I... Should I know you?

No. You were only a babe.

But a mother never forgets.

Shh, shh.

Come.

Boar-headed! Just like his mother!

- Aye, she could never stay put, either.

- Eh, he's just 20, and a Viking.

I mean, could there be a

worse combination? Heh!

When I think of how stubborn and

senseless you were back in the day.

Oh. Well, not much

has changed, actually.

Ah, you know what he's like.

He won't give up, Gobber.

And if Hiccup finds Drago

before we find him...

Ah! Nothing can hurt Hiccup,

as long as that Night Fury's around.

It's a Night Fury!

Huh?

Find them, Skullcrusher.

Find them.

- Uh, h-hold on. Wait just a minute.

- This way.

- Come back here.

- Come.

You can't just say something

like that and run off.

You're my mother?!

I mean, what the...?

Do you... do you grasp

how insane it sounds?

- Come quickly.

- I have questions!

Where have you... been all this time?

What-what have you been doing?

But they-they said you were dead!

Everyone thinks you were eaten by...

This is where you've

been for 20 years?

You-you've been rescuing them.

- Unbelievable.

- You're not upset?

What? No. I-I don't know. I...

It's a bit much to get my

head around, to be frank.

It's not every day you find out

your mother is some kind of...

crazy, feral, vigilante dragon lady.

Oh...

Well...

At least I'm not boring, right?

Well, I suppose there is that...

- one specific thing.

- Do-do you like it?

I- I don't have the words.

C- can I...

Oh, he's beautiful. Oh.

Oh, incredible.

He might very well be

the last of his kind.

Oh... and look, he's your age.

Wow.

No wonder you get along so well.

Oh, yeah? Oh, yeah?

And retractable teeth.

- How did you manage...

- I found him in the woods.

He was shot down and wounded.

This Snafflefang lost his leg to one

of Drago Bludvist's iron traps.

This Raincutter had her wing

sliced by razor netting.

And this, oh, poor Hobblegrunt

was blinded by a tree snare...

and then left to die

alone and scared.

And what of this? Did Drago

or his trappers do this, too?

Oh. Yeah.

Well, crazy thing is...

I'm actually the one

who shot him down.

Hey, it's-it's okay, though.

He got me back.

Right, bud? You couldn't

save all of me, could you?

You just had to make

it even. So peg leg.

What did your father think

of your Night Fury friend?

Oh, he-he didn't

take it all that well.

But then, he changed. They all did.

Pretty soon, everyone back

home had dragons of their own.

- If only it were possible.

- No, really.

Believe me, I tried, as well, but people

are not capable of change, Hiccup.

Some of us...

Were just born different.

Berk was a land of kill or be killed,

but I believed peace was possible.

Stop! You'll only make it worse!

It was a very unpopular opinion.

Hiccup!

Then one night, a dragon

broke into our house,

finding you in the cradle.

I rushed to protect you.

But what I saw was proof

of everything I believed.

This wasn't a vicious beast,

but an intelligent, gentle creature,

whose soul reflected my own.

- Valka, run!

- No, don't.

Oh...

Hold on!

- No! Stoick!

- Valka!

Stoick!

Valka.

You and your father

nearly died that night.

All because I couldn't kill a dragon.

Eh, runs in the family.

It broke my heart to stay away,

but I believed you'd be safer if I did.

How did you survive?

Oh, Cloudjumper never

meant to harm me.

He must have thought

I belonged here...

in the home of the

great Bewilderbeast.

The Alpha species.

One of the very few that still exist.

Every nest has its queen,

but this is the king of all dragons.

With his icy breath,

this graceful giant built our nest,

a safe haven for dragons everywhere.

Wait, that's the ice-spitter?

He's responsible for all that destruction?

He protects us.

We all live under his

care and his command.

All but the babies, of course...

who listen to no one.

I've lived among them

for 20 years, Hiccup,

discovering their secrets.

- He likes you.

- Wow.

You must be hungry.

- Uh, yeah, I could eat.

- Good. It's feeding time.

I don't like it. They should've

been back with Hiccup by now.

I don't like it, either. Eret, Son

of Eret, was the man of my dreams.

My everything!

- But, baby, I grew facial hair for you.

- Me, too.

What if Drago shot them down?

What if they need our help?

- We have to find them.

- Wait, wait, what?

- No, but Stoick said...

- It doesn't matter what he said

if they've all been captured.

Come on!

- Do we go back?

- We've nowhere to go...

nothing to sell, and no

heads to call our own.

If we don't turn up with

dragons and fast...

- Careful what you wish for!

- Do something!

- Eret, Son of Eret!

- We'll miss you, Eret!

- What is this?

- A kidnapping.

Yay, can he ride with me? Can he?

Can he...?

You're gonna show us

the way to Drago.

And help Dragon Riders sneak into

Drago's camp? Just kill me now.

That could be arranged.

Stormfly, drop it.

Huh?

Good girl!

Stormfly, fetch.

All right! Okay!

I'll take you to Drago!

Works every time.

Hey, I-I thought we

were going to eat.

Oh, we are.

And then, from Dragon Island,

I found this archipelago...

There.

Whoa.

Oh, when I'm up here,

I don't even feel the cold.

- I just feel...

- Free.

This is what it is to

be a dragon, Hiccup.

It's all well and good to call

yourself a dragon, but can you fly?

Oh, no!

Man, almost!

We just about had it that time.

Incredible.

Well, not bad yourself.

All this time, you took after me.

And... where was I?

I'm so sorry, Hiccup.

Can we start over?

Will you give me another chance?

I... I can teach you all that I've

learned these past 20 years.

Like...

Wow.

Now you can make those tight turns.

Did you know about this?
