It was the same day and I would remember this as 'the best scene ever' when he first watched it and found out Graff was alive, now I was in that very same scene.
"I can't believe Garff made it... He was not looking good," hiccup muttered
"I think he'll be alright...That dragon has a lot of fight in him." Astrid replied.
"He's not the only one."
"Hiccup, we can't let what happened to Garff or the other Deathsong happen to any other dragon"
Oh wait, I was noticed?
"You're right. And we're not going to," hiccup responded, "Listen Gang, the dragon hunters are still out there. I know you all want to go home but..."
I stopped listening. Look, I was BORED.
Zero's thoughts trailed off as he looked around. Wow, It's surprisingly hot...
"What about that guy?" A voice that seemed to be Ruffnut's voice caught my attention. Huh?
"Well, I don't know. from what Astrid told me. He was docile and calm and focused all of his attention to Garff instead of us, they must be close somehow. And even now it didn't attack but followed us here willingly!" Hiccup responded.
"Are they talking about you?" Garff tilted his head.
"Mh-hm, I don't think they know we're brothers... Hehe funny."
'Heh, That is a bit funny.'
"So, what's wrong with his color? Isn't he not supposed to be all bright and colorful?' a voice, which was Tuffnut, asked.
"I don't know..." Fishlegs touched my leg. Ewww...Social distancing! Luckily he pulled away.
"So what should we call it? it's not like we should keep calling it 'the Deathsong.'" Tuff asked again.
"Syncope!!"
"Anacruza!!"
"Legato!"
"TimeTrial...!"
"Stave?" they kept losing excitement after Zero not answering any of them
"Since when did you come up with Abstract names?! How about we keep it simple like...Zero?"
Instinctively, I turned to Fishlegs and jumped. He had a surprised face, wide eyes and all. Dang it! Why do I have to be like this...
"Hiccup, maybe the reason that it's docile is that it has a rider? Maybe someone raised it from birth...It would explain why he has a name."
Hm... Well, I do kinda wanna explore the island. I don't really want to become the center of a new episode or something. He hopped away and spread his wings, "Sorry Garff! I promise I'll come back!"
I flew off in one direction and made several turns so I could lose them if they did fly after me. Flying past many dragons, I found a decent size cave to rest in. It had a lighter grey stone color for the walls and patches of white in it, which I think is salt. Going to the farther inside the small cave, I made himself a simple, soft, amber nest that had the consistency of rubber and was shaped like a disk in the corner of the den. Going outside of the den, I decided to make something for fun... But what? Perhaps I should make a wolf? I made a wolf culture in a sitting position, using my mind to sculpt since I still needed a little practice with it. It was in a sitting position; ear perked and snout forward. It looked alert, and it was pretty cool.
Wait.. What if I could control it?
I mean, yes I can manipulate it with my mind... But what about like... Being it?
Wild Idea, I know, but I have and try wild ideas all the time (literally all of them relating to my amber failed) so why not?
But how...?
I thought... And I thought... And I eventually gave up on the idea... The chance it was going to work was so low... But I did try another idea and it worked! I made amber alive! Well, only setient and it ran only on intsict which made me exhausted, I didn't even do anything with it and slunk back into the cave.
Urghhhh... I'm HUNGRY! Exhaustion can wait, food comes first!
I came out of the Grey and white den and looked up; No toothless. I carefully sneaked out so not to alert any predators and took to the sky, hovering in place. I looked around and found the Edge in a matter of seconds, it was very easy to see. Starting to move, I got closer to the Edge. Most likely there's a barrel of fish in the stables. Landing as quietly as I could onto the edge of the stables. I peeked my head into it and saw all the dragons but for one, Garff, sleeping. Garff was solemnly looking down on the ground, seeming distraught. When I entered Garff, his ear-fins perked up.
"Brother! You're here- oh right. Why did you run Zero? Did they annoy you?"
"No, no. I just... don't like being the main center of attention... Plus I wanted to explore this place." he shrugged, getting closer to the back. I started talking in a louder tone, "Just getting fish to eat. And, don't ask me to take you with me. You need rest, the riders will help you. More than I can."
The dragons started to stir so I dashed in and out, only able to grunt a simple bye to Garff and get as many fish stuffed in my mouth as possible. And then I FLEW as quickly as I could back to my den. Zero landed at the entrance of the den and chewed on his fish, finishing his meal after a few minutes. Into the cave he went, curling up into a small ball shape in his nest and falling asleep.

Hiccup paced on the edge of the Dragon stables with everyone else.
"And the barrel was flipped upside down with barely any fish but none of the dragons' cages were open?"
'Nope, not one.' Fishlegs replied.
'I think I may have a guess on who did it..'
"Zero of course! Who else could have done it." Tuffnut finished for him.
"You don't think I know that," he said with an annoyed tone. "Look gang, I think we have a wild Deathsong we have to find"
