One-Eye continues to be friendly towards Hiccup, but when Alvin the Treacherous steals Hiccup's crown, is the first of the domestic dragons to join the Dragon Rebellion, and the first to fall. After series of mysterious accidents, in which Hiccup is almost killed only to be saved at the very last minute by Humongously Hotshot, Fishlegs's suspicions are confirmed when Humongously Hotshot admits that although he likes Hiccup quite a bit, he's given his word to kill Hiccup, because he was told by his good friend Terrific Al that Hiccup is a terrible villain responsible for Al's terrible misfortunes. Everyone has to turn their backs, excluding Fishlegs, who gives Hiccup his lobster-claw necklace, the only thing Fishlegs has from his parents.

Hiccup reunited with his mother in How to Seize a Dragon's Jewel, however as Hiccup believed she had sided with with his enemies, their meeting was rather violent. The quest is of particular importance to Hiccup, as the riddle says that Grimbeard's heir will be the one to find the treasure. For ' Herding-Reindeer-on-Horseback' lessons during a very hot summer, the Viking Novices were to choose a young Riding Dragon. Hiccup, at least at first, preferred she not get involved in some of their escapades because she is a girl. He excels at being a brutish belligerent Viking and great at insulting others, which is ideal in his world.

And Alvin the Treacherous has EIGHT of the King's Lost Things, and has been proclaimed the new King of the Wilderwest (but still a King-in-waiting). Snotlout is also excellent at swordfighting, even fending off adult Outcasts who are much larger and more experienced than him, in How to Be a Pirate.

Hiccup released the dragon Furious from his long imprisonment, but Furious carries a great grudge against all humans due to the tragedies of his long life.

However, during the test, Toothless' jealousy gets the better of him, and he mocks Snotlout's dragon, Fireworm, leading to a massive dragon-fight between all the dragons of the young Hooligans and Meatheads (the two tribes initiate their young warriors together). Meanwhile, Hiccup, Camicazi, Fishlegs, and Humongously Hotshot set off on the Quest to Stop the Volcano From Exploding, bringing the Firestone that Stoick had stolen back to the volcano. Camicazi managed to kill three Berserks although she did have the advantage of dropping down on them from above.She tells them a prophecy which is about the next king: he has a fang-free dragon, an arrow-from-a-land-that-does-not-exist, Grimbeard's second-best sword, the ticking-thing, a Roman shield, the throne, the crown, and the Dragon Jewel. Fishlegs is fiercely loyal to Hiccup for being his friend and saving his life so many times, and thinks of himself as Hiccup's sidekick. In the morning, Hiccup realizes he took home a Nanodragon from the Roman Ship who was covered in honey and about to be eaten by the Fat Consul. To add insult to injury, he, Norbert the Nutjob, noble Chief of the Hysteric Tribe, and Master Swordsman, was finding it difficult to defeat this tiny little blond Assassin in one-to-one combat.

Ultimately, Fishlegs saves Hiccup by shooting him in the foot with an arrow that has potato juice on it. The potatoes are also rather delicious when they are cooked, either mashed or just plain with a little dollop of melted butter.Old Wrinkly reveals that Bigjob, father of Norbert the Nutjob, supposedly traveled to America and brought back a potato, although on the journey home Bigjob's ship was followed by a terrible sea monster known as the Doomfang, which killed him and now keeps any ships from going in or out of Hysteria harbor. What Hiccup does have is an extremely strong sense of responsibility, and many of his most exciting and dangerous adventures result from his doing whatever needs doing to save a friend (or sometimes an enemy!
