Prologue- Rejuvenated
Dead eyes watched as the battlefield burned, and as smoke billowed from the carcasses of enemy soldiers and allies alike, the smell of burning flesh filled the air and as the lifeless green eyes looked upon the chaos nothing was felt. There was no sympathy, there was no regret, there were no emotions, the eyes showed nothing, for they were empty.
About 7 Years previously
The sounds of explosions filled the air, as bombs exploded all around Berk. Screams and sirens filled the air as the explosions stopped. People screaming their loved ones names trying to find them while severely disorientated, however one man had found the one who he was looking for and as he struggled to crawl towards him he screamed "Dad!" and as he approached several paramedics and soldiers arrived on the scene to try and save the two men. As they arrived they tried to take the young man an ambulance however he resisted and screamed insults at the paramedics, until he finally succumbed to the pain and passed out, in which he was then taken away. However in the rubble lay a middle aged man, blood staining his suit and tie, his breathing heavy and eyes wide as the soldiers and paramedics came to his side.
"Hold still sir, we'll have you out of here and patched up in no time." A younger paramedic said with panic in his voice as he grabbed items out of his kit, fumbling and dropping a bandage. However a sad laugh left the other mans mouth as he grabbed the young man's arm to stop him.
"Son... *Cough cough*... we both know that I won't make it, so... *Cough cough*... go and find someone who can be saved." The paramedic looked into the old man's eyes and felt nothing but regret. He knew the man was right, he couldn't be saved. His chest and face were severely lacerated and his legs were crushed under rubble. Blood pooled around the area, in the man's stomach, where a large metal beam had pierced through. He knew he couldn't save him and he knew he couldn't help him.
"I'm sorry" he said as he quickly shoved his kit back in his bag and ran off to help others. As he ran off, the other man looked at the soldiers in front of him, men he'd known for years, men he'd have taken a bullet for. He beckoned the soldier in front of him, and the man bent down and took his hand, then with all his might the man pushed out his last words.
"Save my son, wha... *Cough cough*... whatever it takes, Gobber, save my son, save Hi... Hi..."Gripping his hand tightly the soldier says "Don't ye worry Stoick, I'll do whate'er it takes to save Hiccup, I promise ye" and with that a smile crossed Stoick's bloodied face and soon after his chest stopped rising and his body laxed. Stoick Haddock was no more, and as a tear slid down Gobbers face, it signalled the beginning of the largest war known to man.
8 hours later
A doctor exited an operating room to see an armed man and 4 medics, he knew why they were here and he knew that he would never know how the boy in the room would fare.
"How is he?"
"He's stable for now, but as he is he won't make it."
"He'll make it, he's stubborn, jus' like his father was."
"To be honest I'm surprised he's made it this far, with the amount of blood he's lost he shouldn't be alive."
"Ah don' ye worry abou' it, go and get em." As Gobber said this the four medics went into the room which contained a highly fragile Hiccup.
A 2 hour flight later
A loud noise resonated in the large facility "Vome!... Vome!"
"What!?" an angry voice responded
"Get over he'e now!" shouted Gobber as a tall lanky man walked around from behind a curtain
"What could be so important?" but within a second of saying what he said Vome saw Hiccup on the stretcher, with his extremely pale skin and the machines hooked up to him. "Get him to the lab now." He walked up to Gobber, "what happened to him?"
"He was caught in the explosions along with Stoick."
"And, where's Stoick?" said Vome perplexed, he knew Hiccup was Stoicks son and if Hiccup was seriously injured he knew Stoick would want to be with him.
Gobber's face fell "Stoick is no more, but his last words were to do whatever it takes save his son, that's why I brought him to you."
"Why? Isn't the hospital good enough?"
Gobber looked at Vome seriously, "Vome he's goin to die, he's lost too much blood and the internal damage is severe. He won't make it without your help Vome, please, honour Stoicks final wishes."
"Fine I'll do everything that I can, but he'll never be the same Hiccup that you once knew."
"Just do whatever it takes to save him." With a nod Vome left and went to go operate on Hiccup. Gobber knew the risks in asking Vome to help Hiccup, Vome was crazy however when it came to people he trusted he would do his dammed best to keep them alive even if his actions were illegal, but Gobber didn't care. He knew the Hiccup that went in would never come out the same, however if it meant keeping him alive anything was worth it.
It took Vome 18 hours to stabilise Hiccup, through multiple experiments and testing Vome enhanced Hiccup enough so that he was able to survive, and survive he did.
9 months later
"Today is the greatest day of your lives, because as of today you will all get your own Dragon Suits, and after today you will all become the forces that will protect our great land. So, let me be the first to congratulate you for your hard work and the first to say good luck because you're going to need it." Then with a salute the drill sergeant shouted "Dissmissed!" and all those present saluted back and started to walk off towards the barracks to pack because as of tomorrow they were all going to war. However after they had all moved off only one soldier remained, and that soldier was Hiccup Haddock, and as his green eyes looked upon the suit that was about to become his, a grin crossed his face, and as he walked away the word 'finally' was muttered under his breath.
It did not take long for Hiccup to rise through the ranks as his operation gave him an edge in battle and these edges allowed many acts of heroism and valour, and through his acts of valour he earned many medals and amongst them were the Military Cross and the Berkian Cross. However to Hiccup these were just stepping stones, to him his acts of bravery were nothing more than an attempt to push himself. He wanted to become a man his father would have respected and most importantly he wanted vengeance. He wanted to avenge his father's death and gain back his and his father's honour.
In the beginning that was his goal but over time, the righteousness behind actions was lost and it wasn't long before the causes of his actions were rage, hatred, anger and eventually there was no emotions behind his actions, he was just doing a job. Be that as it may this did not change the way Hiccup was viewed. By the Berkian army he was seen as a mysterious soldier, nobody knew who he was, nobody knew his name and nobody dared to ask. He was a soldier who held no fear and showed no mercy. To the enemy he was a monster, a demon. He ripped through outposts and strongholds like they were nothing, and he destroyed everything in his path, never letting anyone escape and never showing mercy, but no matter who they were, friend or foe, they knew him by the name Fury.
The name was adopted from the name of an ancient Dragon, the Night Fury, which was known as the unholy offspring of lightning and death itself. Hiccup received the name Fury because the only way to recognise him was through his gun (sounds like a Night Fury's blast), the purple laser blast and his pitch black suit.
The only advice to enemy soldiers was to hide and pray that Fury does not find you.
Present time
Hiccup was forced out of his dazed state when a hand landed on his shoulder. Hiccup looked up to see Rampage, his oldest and most reliable comrade. They had both went through basic training together and both got their Dragon suits at the same time, and after that they were inseparable. Up until the point where Rampage was seriously injured, that's when the ranks found out how valuable Hiccup was, and after that Hiccup never left alone. He was put in a gruelling 3 month training course and it was after this training that he acquired the nickname Fury, as he was given his new suit and equipment which he named the Night Fury, and his reputation among allies and enemies skyrocketed.
Nonetheless Rampage did not relent, and once he was healed he chased after Hiccup and after awhile he managed, however the skill and ability difference between Rampage and Hiccup were too great. This led to Hiccup going solo on many missions and leaving his squad and Rampage behind on many occasions. However today was their last mission as a squad as Rampage reached the rank of Major and he must now must take a squad under his wing.
Originally a Captain must form a new squad, however General Gobber intervened and allowed the men to work together for a little while longer as they were unstoppable together, but all good things must come to an end.
"Let's get out of here Hiccup, there's nothing left here for us to do." Hiccup looked down at the helmet in his hands, it belonged to Charcoal. The nicest and kindest soldier known in the Special Forces, he made everything into a joke, that's why he nicknamed himself charcoal. He specialised in explosives and a small accident left him covered in black ash, and to get a laugh out of it he nicknamed himself Charcoal. Hiccup stared at the helmet; it was cracked, broken and smeared with dirt and blood. Hiccup kneeled down and placed it on the end of Charcoals rifle, which was sticking out of the ground which was still smouldering.
'Goodbye old friend.' Muttered hiccup before getting up and putting on his own helmet.
"Yeah, let's get out of here." And as they walked towards the helicopter that was taking them back to base the lifeless eyes were filled with a dangerous fire that could not be extinguished, and a promise, a promise to end the war.
However for the time being, it was time to get a new squad.
