I've been watching the riders and defenders of berk lately; and this idea just came to me so I thought it be hilarious.
Note: this takes place after when Dagur was first announced as chief but before he found out they lied to him about not killing dragons anymore.
It began as a scouting mission to find a newly spotted species of dragon. Via was up north in search for it along with Fishlegs as the others were located elsewhere.
"What do you think it could be Via!? A boulder or tracker class….nah not a tracker class." The woman shushed him with a whisper, "We won't find out unless you lower your voice. I doubt either one of those classes; my money is on a mystery class since apparently as you say NO ONE has even seen this dragon before."
It is odd, the dragon has been heard of but no one has ever seen it…it must be like the Night Fury. Vikings knew of it and the sound it makes before attacking but was never seen until Hiccup.
She was very curious as well to this strange dragon that just mysteriously appeared on Berk. It made the others dragons frantic just arriving there and the strange humming/buzzing noise that could be heard (similar to the Deathsong) hence how they came to the conclusion some new dragon arrived.
Naturally, as soon as something came sneaking up behind them….Fishlegs screamed. Via tried to shush him after sensing it but it was too late….the chaos happened.
The dragon was so fast on its feet all Via saw was solid white eyes with a black slit running down the middle, dark scaly skin, and sharp spikes along its spine that actually glowed. Time seemed to stand still after that, only having time to register that her forearm had been cut on one of the spines before her vision was blurry to no end.
Clamping her eyes shut and holding her head she felt like her entire body was spinning out of control so just kept still until it passed only to find herself completely alone.
Blinking rapidly and rubbing her eyes she looked around to see what happened, but no one was there. Via took a few deep breaths to calm down and think clearly to what could've happened.
"I'm pretty sure I'm not dead." She looked at her arms and frowned, "The cut is there but….wh…what in…"
She immediately saw her scar was gone from her left arm. "What's going on here!?" Hearing a stream nearby she ran to it and almost fainted when she saw her reflection….she was younger, about 17 or 18 years old instead of 23.
Of all things for her to say at this point was a whine, "My breasts are smaller~"
Get a hold of yourself Via. Okay, apparently that dragon made you younger….not a bad thing technically. Well, at least now I know that dragon is almost like a fountain of youth…..no wonder no one's seen it before. If someone did they could've been changed to a baby!
Mentally thanking Thor that didn't happen to her she raced back to the village to find the others to let them know what happened….and hopefully get it reversed.
She didn't look too much different when she was this age as an older teen; her hair was a little shorter, breasts a bit smaller but luckily still bigger than the other girls and her figure wasn't as tone as it grew to be as a dragon rider. "At least a have somewhat of a figure still, so glad I'm not 15 or younger otherwise I'd be flat chested and no figure being a late bloomer."
When she got there, her hut was missing. Furrowing her brows in confusion as to what happened to, not to mention it didn't even look like anything was ever built there.
Marking that off as a second thing to tell them off about until she got into the village to be collided with someone and knocked to the ground. "Ow! Watch where you're…..go….I mean, I should apologize for doing that to you~"
Via stood up wondering why Snotlout sounded strange, let alone acting more flirtatious than usual until she got a good look at him under the lit torches. Now I'm completely terrified. What does this mean!?
He was younger too and probably 15-16 years old. She was at an utter complete loss for words even when he grabbed her wrist and spouted, "Come on, I have GOT to show you to the others."
It's like he doesn't even know me. Did I….no~ it can't be….
She was lead to the Great Hall where the dragon riders, with their dragons naturally, were just finished with a meeting about their next training exercise.
As soon as Hiccup saw him he rolled his eyes, "Oh you actually decided to show up for once Snotlout and….who's that?"
Via stood there too stunned to say anything just yet, this had to be a blast from the past since everyone here was affected too and NO ONE knew who she was.
"This is what I found…pretty isn't she?"
Tuffnut grinned, "I'll say~"
Now this was really getting weird, seeing Tuffnut who looked really different and with no dread locks…..way too bizarre.
Hiccup approached her and held out his hand, "I'm sorry about Snotlout, he's not very tactful when it comes to meeting new people. I'm Hiccup, what's your name? More importantly where did you come from to be out this late and our dragons not sense you?"
Is it safe to give my name? What choice do I have?
She took his hand and gave him a small smile, "Via and well….it's a long story and not very believable."
It was true and Hiccup could see she was telling the truth, but skepticism was inevitable. Many questions were thrown at her that night and the next day until Hiccup managed to keep them all at bay.
As of right now on this crisp cool morning Via came to the conclusion that she was transported back in time so many years by that Spine Juncture dragon. Had to give it a name and seems fitting to me, but why this time and place? More importantly, how am I going to get back to my own time?
She learned this to be so because no dragon hunters were any trouble so far, the Deathsong and many others wasn't discovered yet, this was before she ran away from home too and got her scars after being marooned, etc. This also meant Scarfume was no longer her dragon yet and she wasn't Tuffnut's girlfriend.
"What a mess."
She managed to come up with believable excuses how she came to be here. As far as they know she ran away from home, her boat sank due to a dragon attack which is where she got the cut on her arm, and luckily was near enough to swim to shore on the opposite side of the island and got dry.
It was true to a point minus a few details but she had to come up with something. She grunted when Toothless nudged her and she petted him, "At least you and the dragons know I'm not an enemy, even though I can't let on I know how to ride a dragon."
Her dragon knowledge and being able to ride one…..wasn't a good idea to boast about just for safety measures. What if she messed up something about the future, like how to make Gronckle iron which they haven't figured out yet or the secrets to Changewings.
She made out she was just an animal lover and dragons was no exception which was definitely true. "Hey Via, could you do me a huge favor."
"What is it?"
Hiccup looked fairly nervous and kept frowning, "I normally would never ask you to do this since you're new to the island but I have no choice. The others bailed on me when they found out."
She arched a brow as he continued, "You see, it's another chief's birthday and he's coming here to get his gift which he demanded for some odd reason…..which I have to present him."
"Okay~ So what's the problem here? A bad gift?"
"Have you ever heard of the Berserker's?"
She tried SO hard not to give it away that she knew all too well but managed to say calmly, "I've heard of them." "Well, Oswald is no longer the chief and his son Dagur is the new chief but….we're still on a peace treaty with them but he still doesn't know we don't kill dragons anymore so at least the others are keeping them hidden at least. It's just…I don't want to be left alone with him….again."
"So, it's Dagur's birthday and he's coming to get his gift from your tribe specifically and you just want me there as moral support so he'll leave as soon as possible."
"More or less~" She just shrugged, "Okay, anything I need to know about him?" "He's completely mental and loves killing things which is an understatement. Just don't mention anything about dragons and we should be good."
Via was fairly worried to see Dagur. He obviously would be around her age but from the things she's heard and even saw for herself when she first met him….seeing this worse version of him (if that's possible) may change her opinion about everything he's done and more importantly…how will he react when he sees her?
This was going to be a pip.
To be continued:
Hope everyone likes this so far and there will be smut in next chapter lol
Just a short story I thought would be funny
