Before he knew it, the freezing ice around Hiccup had exploded, and suddenly he saw why.
Toothless.
He was glowing blue. Across his back, his spikes, tail, his nose and his head were are glowing a bright blue, a beautiful sight. He turned back to look at his rider, and Hiccup smiled, breathing heavily, and lightly nodded.
Immediately Toothless sprung to his paws and leaped up onto one of the huge ice spikes in front of Drago's Bewilderbeast, and he hunched himself up, making his wings look as big as he possibly could. He snarled and his pupils turned into thin slits, and the back of his throat glowed blue too.
Hiccup rushed to his feet and Valka, his mother, was at his side.
"He's challenging the Alpha!' Hiccup exclaimed, tears of pride pricking at his eyes.
"To protect you!" Valka finished, smiling at the Nightfury's will to risk his own life to protect a human being.
Toothless began to shoot plasma blasts at the Bewilderbeast, and the giant monster tried to catch Toothless off guard, nipping andy clawing at him clumsily and slowly. The Nightfury easily dogged, and he read red up quickly, then dodged a small burst of flame from the Bewilderbeast by flapping his wings and jumping into the air. He landed with a thump then spun round to Hiccup and Valka, then he sprinted down the ice spike and stood in front of them, wings wide, one food on a lump of ice. He roared his more fierce roar, and Hiccup suddenly felt a rush of courage.
The man ran up to his dragon and climbed into his saddle, then Toothless ran back up to the ice spike, and Hiccup could see the dragons who were once under the Alpha's control turning normal again, and suddenly Stormfly lead the other dragons and every single one of them followed her, and they hovered in the air, all behind Toothless. Everyone was behind Hiccup now, too; Astrid, Eret, Ruffnut Tuffnut, Snotlout and Fishlegs, and the whole village too.
"FIGHT BACK! FIGHT!" Drago screamed as he ran up the Bewilderbeast's tusk, stabbing the ivory with his spear.
Toothless was in an attack position, and Hiccup's eyes were determined, "This is what it is to earn a dragon's loyalty. Let this end. NOW!" He shouted, Toothless pawing the ice.
"NEVER!" Drago screamed back at him.
Toothless tore away from Hiccup's hand, which was on the Nightfury's neck, and pulled his head down. He snorted, and readied himself. Hiccup felt the dragon rising beneath him, and his wings arched above the man's head. He smiled, eyebrows determined, and let Toothless do what he had to do.
Toothless shot the first fire ball, and just as he was about to shoot another, all the dragons behind him began to follow, each firing at the Bewilderbeast, who was clearly surprised but the attack. It made no attempt to stop them.
Stormfly, Hookfang, Skullcrusher, Grump, Meatlug, Barf and Belch, Cloudjumper, the Scuttelclaws, Raincutters, Snafflefangs, Hobblegrumps and all of the other dragons were all shooting their most powerful fire at the current Alpha.
Toothless's eyes narrowed and he smiled, as did Hiccup, and they both looked around at all the dragons following their example. Toothless looked so proud and noble there, as if he knew he was meant to be. Hiccup was more proud than he'd ever been before.
Suddenly Toothless arched his back, began snarling, and he conjured up a large and more powerful fireball than he'd ever summoned before, all his strength gathering in his throat, and shot it straight onto the Bewilderbeast's tusk, causing it to crack apart, and most of the ivory came crashing down onto Berk's grass, and the Alpha roared in annoyance.
Toothless roared his loudest roar as defiantly as could, and Hiccup tried nard to stay on while toothless was moving around so much, and the Nightfury then snorted determinedly, his eyes narrow and angry.
The Bewilderbeast shot Toothless grudging look and then, with a bit of hesitation, leaped off the side of Berk and crashed into the ocean, taking Drago with him.
Hiccup looked over the due of the island, and there was only white foam in the water, so sign of the Bewilderbeast or Drago, so he steered Toothless of the ice spike and down onto the ground.
Toothless had done it.
He had defeated the Bewilderbeast, and taken his rightful place as Alpha.
Hiccup had never been more proud.
