Nothing to say here, Enjoy!

Oh wait, I should add a disclaimer every now and again so here it is. I do not own the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, idea, or characters (however much I wish I do); they belong to Cressida Cowell and DreamWorks. I only own whatever characters I create, and the plot of the story which you are reading.

"Hiccup!" A voice echoed through the boy's head as he woke up with a gasp. Looking around he expected to see the back Zahnlos's head and the sky as the last thing he remembered they were flying through the sky away from the Queen as his shield was starting to fail. However, that was not what Hiccup saw when he opened his eyes.

"AHHH!" Hiccup shouted out as he fell flat on his rear as he saw where he was. He recognized where he was as his mindscape, but there was something horrible wrong with it. Instead of just a house in the rolling hills and forests of Berk, there was now huge sections of rock floating in a circle around the house and chucks of the earth were being torn up and joining the ever-growing flying circle of natural materials.

What's going on here? Hiccup thought as he observed everything that was happening. The Queen. He didn't know when or how but he was sure that the Queen had somehow broken through his mental barrier and was destroying his and potentially Zahnlos's mindscape so that She could control them like She did for all the dragons in her nest. Hiccup was laying on the ground just outside his house as he awaited his fate, watching the stone and dirt circle spin faster and faster. The ground started to tremble as all the material that was floating around Hiccups location started to fly towards the ground and was creating a mountain around him, raising him and his house to the top of it. Hiccup was scared out of his mind that the Queen was taking it over.

"Hiccup!" The boy heard the voice of Zahnlos and started to frantically look around for his best friend.

"Zahnlos, where are you!?" Hiccup shouted out in his mind, afraid and looking for a sense of normalcy in the changing chaos of his mindscape. It was then that Zahnlos materialized in front of the boy and before the dragon could do anything he was tackled by his rider in what was meant to be a bone crushing bear hug but just felt like a normal hug to the large reptile.

"Oh Zahnlos, I'm sorry for insisting we scout out the Nest." Hiccup said to the drake as he was wrapped up in the Dragons wings in an effort to comfort the boy as the ground was still shaking and earth was still flying around.

"And why is that dear rider?" Zahnlos responded, nuzzling the top of his rider's head.

"Don't you see what is happening to my mindscape? The Queen is taking over." Hiccup said, letting his emotion flow out of him in droves.

"Stop it. This isn't the work of the Queen." Zahnlos said as he looked up to taking in the changes that had happened to his rider's mindscape, finding it looked a lot like a bad combination of his and his rider's mindscape.

"What else could have caused this and how do you know it wasn't Her?" Hiccup asked, still not sure of what was happening.

"I'm not sure what has happened, but I do know this isn't Her doing as this is a mix of yours and my mindscape. If it was her you wouldn't even have your own mindscape as She takes it completely over." Zahnlos said as a small shiver went through him and Hiccup got an image in his mind that felt like a memory of a mindscape that looked like the Nest they had fled from.

"Did it look like the nest?" Hiccup asked, not knowing where it had come from.

"Yes, how did you know? I didn't send it through out bond." Came the surprised response.

"I don't know, it just appeared in my mind like it was a memory." The teen said to his dragon, even more confused now about what was happening. It was then that the ground stopped shaking and the thuds and bangs of rocks and earth slamming into the ground stopped. Zahnlos peaked his head out of the small cocoon that he had trapped Hiccup in before opening his wings to let said teen out. What they saw before them was a beautiful mountain top paradise of a small forest that reminded the both of them of the same thing, home. As they scanned the area Hiccup spotted something off to their right in one of the walls. Getting up he walked over to what he had seen with Zahnlos right behind him.

"Wow." Hiccup said as they got closer to the wall, now being able to see it in better clarity. It was Hiccups house, but carved partially into the rock around the entrance to a cave.

"Hiccup, I think I may know what has happened." Zahnlos said as they both stood there and admired the combination of stone and wood that was their "home". "Somehow we have completely bonded in an instant."

"What?" Hiccup asked as he turned to look at his friend who had laid down so he sat down and leaned up against him.

"You see, when two dragons are bound by fate to be with each other they bond, like we have. That bond grows over time as the two are together till almost their entire minds are connected, allowing each to feel the others feelings, hear their thoughts, see memories, know their pain, and some other things that I'm forgetting." Zahnlos explained, he didn't really have a good idea what had happened as full bonds took years to grow even with the most willing of dragons. Hiccup didn't say anything, digesting the information that Zahnlos had just dumped on him.

"Then how did we reach it so soon?" Hiccup asked, laying down and getting wrapped up in Zahnlos's wings once more.

"I don't know Hiccup, I truly do not know." With that statement the two fell into silence, neither knowing what to say and neither wanting to break the silence that seemed to relax them both so much.

"Where do you think, we are? I mean where do you think our bodies are?" Hiccup asked, breaking the silence after a few minutes.

"I don't know exactly but before I passed out and came here I landed back at the Sanctuary." Zahnlos said, the memory of landing at the Sanctuary finding its way to Hiccup.

"Think we should try and make it back to the real world?" Hiccup asked, looking up so that his forest green eyes meet the acid green eyes of Zahnlos.

"I think we should." Came the response as the both of them started to dematerialize to awake back in the real world.

—Real World—

The two woke up slower than they had in the past, both feeling slightly sore. Looking around they saw that they were back in their cave in the Sanctuary.

"How do you think we got here?" Hiccup asked.

"Your Mother and Cloudjumper most likely carried us here." Zahnlos answered. The two walked to the opening to their cave so they could try and spot somebody that they knew.

"Ahh!" Hiccup shouted out as they started to look around, causing Zahnlos to quickly look over at him.

"What's wrong Hiccup?" Zahnlos asked him.

"I don't know, there is something wrong with my eyes." Hiccup replied as he looked around the Sanctuary and took in his new vision.

"What does it look like?"

"The colors are more vivid, everything I'm looking at is clearer. Nothing hurts of anything but it just caught me unaware and I don't know where it came from." Hiccup said to Zahnlos before his eyes switched back to normal. "Wait, its normal again."

"That may be one of the side effects of out bonding." Zahnlos said. "Climb on and let's go see the King about this." Hiccup did just that and they soon where down next to the King's pool and watching as he turned around to meet them.

"Hiccup, Zahnlos, it's good to see you two up and about. What can I help you with?" The King asked, noticing that the mental barrier was down now that they had woken up and in a place that was familiar to them.

"We have a few questions." Zahnlos replied to the massive dragon.

"About some of the specifics of your newly strengthen bond?"

"Yyyaaaaaa, how did you know?" Hiccup asked, both of them surprised by how easily the King guessed what they had arrived there for.

"I sensed your bond had reached that level when you arrived back here many hours ago, despite the barrier you had erected dear Hiccup." The King responded, confusing Hiccup a bit more which the King saw. "When you both collapsed at the entrance your Mother and Cloudjumper brought you two to me as they had no idea what had happened and feared the Queen had corrupted your minds. As soon as you arrived I knew that to not be the case as you had erected a mental shield that was so stronger than even I could not get through."

"How? The strongest shield I have been able to raise you could get through." Hiccup said, before he was reminded of the bond by Zahnlos through the bond. "It was an effect of us fully bonding, wasn't it?"

"Yes Hiccup, it was. Your two together now have a combined raw mental power that has not been seen since the earliest days of the dragons." The King informed them. "Now I'm sure you have some questions about what else has changed since your bond, though first what do you know?" This time Zahnlos answered as he was the more knowledgeable of the two, but due to the bond both had access to the information.

"I know that almost our entire minds are connected which allows each of us to feel the others feelings, hear their thoughts, see their memories and feel some of any pain the other is going through. I know there are some others but I do not remember or I was not informed of them." Zahnlos responded to the King.

"That is but the surface of what your new connection means." The King said to both of them before shifting his gaze over to Hiccup. "You will see the most changes young one."

"What changes will happen?" Hiccup asked, creating a mental image of himself as some Human Night Fury hybrid.

"Nothing as drastic as I'm sure you're thinking. I'm sure you have already noticed you can change your vision, this is something that both of you can do. You can either see the world as you normally do or as Zahnlos does, through your eyes or his." The King stated. "And the same applies to you Zahnlos. If either of you concentrates, you will see how the other sees or what the other is seeing depending on what you wish to see at that moment." The two shared a look between them before looking back at the King.

"The next one applies to Hiccup only. Another one of the effects of a full bond is the life span of the shortest living will be expanded to that of the longest due to you two needing each other to live."

"What does that mean practically though?" Hiccup asked, not quite grasping what he had been told.

"It means that you will live as long as me!" Zahnlos cried out as he started to dance around his rider in joy. Hiccup joined his bond-brother in celebrating once it dawned on him what was said. The King smiled as he watched the two play around before interrupted their fun.

"Calm down you two, there is still more for me to tell you." The King told them before waiting for the pair to settle down in front of him before he continued. "The bonding and long life are not without their down falls however. You two are now a part of each other, if one of you dies the other will suffer. That means I expect your two to look after each other well as I don't want to explain the effects of a death of a bonded to either of you." The boys shared a demoralized look before looking back at the King.

"Anything else we should know?" Hiccup asked, interested about anything else their bond may have changed.

"Nothing that I will not tell you now." The King responded. It was then that the King shifted his gaze up and Hiccup felt the wind shift behind him meaning a dragon had landed. Hiccup turned around to see his mother slide off Cloudjumper and run up and hug him as hard as she could and he could see the tears in her eyes.
