Just FYI, there will be smut naturally like I always do
If anyone is confused, my OC's name sounds just like the vehicle Kia but with a V instead of K. *Don't forget to read the request I ask at end of chapter to name her dragon since I can't think of a good one*
"Um….Hiccup, please tell me again WHY we're going to Changewing island?"
Ruffnut chuckled at Fishlegs fear, "To get more of those magic stones, duh!" Astrid rolled her eyes, "How many times do we have to go over that? Those were dragon eggs!"
Hiccup sighed as he looked through his eyeglass to finally see the island come into view announcing, "Look, I know this is a dangerous island and we've all had bad encounters with the Changewings but Trader Johann believes he saw someone in distress on his way to Berk."
Snotlout snorted, "You actually believe that idiot? If he was so concerned why didn't HE go there instead of coming to us to do his work for him?"
Hiccup and Toothless both rolled their eyes, "He can't fight Snotlout; this topic is getting old." The stout Viking muttered under his breath, "He's probably lying."
Fishlegs whimpered and tried to steady Meatlug since she was getting fidgety, "Let's just hurry and get this over with. I don't know how much more of this Meatlug and I can take."
Astrid called to the chief's son, "Let's do a quick circle around the island to see if we see anyone first." Hiccup nodded, "Good call, that way we don't have to search in the dragons' terrain and risk anyone getting hurt or ambushed."
Once they flew over and saw nothing out of the ordinary they landing on the clearing near the edge of the island, dismounting and thus beginning the search. Tuffnut yelled, "HEY! IS ANY HUMAN OUT THERE?"
"SHHH! Tuffnut are you trying to get us killed!?"
Snotlout nodded and announced sarcastically, "Yeah, we WANT the acid spitting dragons to know we're here." Ruffnut scowled muttering, "Wait, why would we WANT that to happen? Won't those dragons kill us?"
Astrid face palmed muttering, "Idiot." Fishlegs squealed suddenly and made them all stand guard, "I saw something Hiccup…pant…pant…I hope to Thor it's not a Changewing."
"Everyone just stay calm, Toothless and I will check it out." He and his dragon slowly entered deeper into the woods when the Nightfury growled. "What is it bud?"
Before he could do anything else his dragon darted into the woods and left him alone, but it wasn't a few minutes later someone attacked him. "WOAH!"
He quickly grabbed his knife and dodged her next blow from the spear, but not before she kicked his legs out from underneath him and pinned him down with her foot and the spear head at his throat.
"Hey! Hey! I don't mean any harm!"
She just snorted, "Like I haven't heard that before, the last time I listened to someone's pleading request I almost got killed." Suddenly she jumped off of him and skidded backwards on the dirt as Toothless just pounced from the brush, Hiccup getting to his feet and calming his dragon down.
"Calm down bud. Look, we're only here to find someone who's in distress. Is that you?"
She arched a brow questionably, "I don't think so why?" "Well, Trader Johann said he saw someone on this island so is there anyone else here?" "Nope, I'm the one and only."
Then it dawned on Hiccup, "Wait and minute, you mean to tell me you're the only human on this island and yet you're not in trouble?!" "….Yeah~"
"You DO realize this island is full of Changewings?"
The girl stood upright with a confused look, "What's a Changewing? You mean the red dragons that spit acid?" Hiccup and Toothless glanced at each other nervously, "Um…yeah. You didn't know that?"
She just shrugged and softened her expression, "I didn't know that breed of dragon had a name. What about that one you have…..WAIT A MINUTE!"
"Aggh what!?"
A small grin spread across her face as, "You RIDE that dragon!?" "…You're not going to hurt me if I say yes will you?" "It's just….I've never met someone who rode a dragon before. That must mean you're a good guy I hope."
"Like I said we don't mean you any harm." "Who's we?"
"Hiccup there you are, what's taking so….who's that!?"
They all stared wide eyed at the new stranger who looked just as bewildered as they were. "You ALL ride dragons?" Snotlout snorted, "Well of course!"
Hiccup walked closer and asked, "Have you ever come into any contact with any human on this island before?" She just frowned and spoke with a bitter tone, "Only the very few times were these rough looking bunch of Vikings from two different….gangs I guess…..safe to say they were NOT friendly and didn't stay on this island very long."
Fishlegs asked curiously, "Do you happen to know who they were?" She rubbed the back of her head, "Well, they all look the same to me except the leaders. The first group was this huge dude with a thick black beard." "Alvin!?"
"Come to think of it I think that was his name, the other….he's about our age, buff, and rather crazy. I didn't meet him personally but at a distance and hearing him yelling at his crew he sounded like he was."
Hiccup frowned, "Did he have two blue claw mark tattoos on his left eye." "Yeah he did."
Fishlegs was astounded, "Oh my Thor that was Dagur, you're lucky to be alive but why did they leave?" She arched a brow like that was a dumb question, "The dragons obviously~ those jerks did manage to capture a few of them but I managed to set them free; the dragons did the rest. If you claim you know so much about this island no one stays here very long."
Astrid crossed her arms and glared suspiciously, "If that's so, then why are you here?" The girl frowned and fiddled with her spear, "I had no choice."
Hiccup frowned, "What happened?"
She sighed, "I was marooned." Snotlout gasped, "Seriously!? Who did that to you?"
She just shrugged, "I honestly don't know or how I came to be here. I just woke up one day on this island, having no clue what was going on but I'm just glad I adapted." Hiccup got within arm length of her and asked quietly, "How long were you on this island?"
She thought about it and counted on her fingers, "Six months I believe." They all gasped as Fishlegs stuttered, "You've been stuck on this island for six months ALL by yourself!?"
"Yeah….unfortunately…..anyhow enough about that. I know this is a dream and you guys aren't real so I guess I'll leave."
Tuffnut chuckled, "Wait, you think we don't exist…..oh Thor….what if we don't and WE'RE the ones who're dreaming!?"
Astrid rolled her eyes, "We are NOT dreaming about this. She's the one who's been alone for too long and thinks it's all in her head."
Hiccup nodded and blocked the girl's path, "Look, you're not dreaming about this. Touch us if you don't believe me."
She seemed skeptical but would give almost anything if they were real; she missed talking to a real person. She stuck her spear into the ground and warily reached out and touched his face.
He's real….they're real…I'm not insane.
Her eyes swelled up with tears but fought them back, latching onto the one-legged teen and crushing him in a tight hug.
Astrid's cheeks turned pink with envy as Hiccup's did too but from nervousness. She sighed with relief and let him go, "You guys have no idea how happy I am to meet real people…that are nice. Come here you."
Astrid flinched when she was hugged next, then Fishlegs, Snotlout grinned and welcomed out his arms but gasped in surprise she did in fact hug him too. Ruffnut tried to run but she got a quick hug anyway as did her other half who just turned red and smirked.
Ruffnut muttered, "That actually wasn't so bad." Her twin sighed, "Yeah~ that felt nice. Can I have another?"
The girl smiled, "Sure." Snotlout pouted, "Hey I want another too!" Before she could hug him again Astrid stopped her and lectured, "Enough with the hugs, you're going to give them the wrong idea."
The girl tilted her head, "I don't see anything wrong with a hug. You can hug anyone it's not like I kissed them." Tuffnut raised his hand, "I wouldn't mind that…but only from you….and it HAS to be on the lips."
Ruffnut made a disgusted face as did Astrid before they all took in her appearance.
She was about their age, maybe a year or two older. Shoulder length wavy light brown hair (half which she had difficulty keeping from hanging over the left side of her face), no helmet or hair restraints, olive-tanned skin from the sun's rays, lithe toned body, she wore the warm skin tight leggings with a fur skirt that was spilt all the way up only on her right thigh, leather boots like they all did, and a sleeveless cut off fitted dark green tunic top.
Her right forearm she had a black cloth brace that starts at her elbow and ends between her first and second finger (like Ruffnut's), her left she had nothing on it except a spiked wrist band. The rest that stood out on her was that she had a large bite-mark scar on her left arm and three claw marks across her right eye down her cheek; not to mention her metallic blue eyes; overall she was pretty.
Hiccuped got their attention once they finished taking in her appearance, "Ok gang, let's get to what's most important. What's your name, mine's Hiccup."
The other introduced themselves and their dragons as she murmured, "Via."
Tuffnut mused, "Via…Via….is that short for something?" "Not that I'm aware of." "Via….Via wouldn't want to be-ya!"
Hiccup just rolled his eyes as the twins laughed at the pun, "So, Via would you like to come back and live with us on Berk?"
She thought about it in silence before giving the nod, "It'll be strange leaving this place…but I need approval first." Fishlegs whimpered, "Um….from who…..oh Thor….don't move Via!"
She arched a brow, "What?" The others got into battle stances as Hiccup lowered his voice, "There's a Changewing behind you, don't make any sudden movements."
Via just smirked but then gasped when Snotlout sent Hookfang to attack, jumping between the two dragons, "Stop!"
Hookfang was taken aback as was the others as she scowled and rubbed the snout of the Changewing scolding them all, "That's a nice way of introducing yourselves; you shouldn't attack a dragon unless they do it first."
Hiccup gawked, "What the….you're friends with this dragon?"
She nodded and scratched his chin, "Yeah, this is my dragon." Astrid inhaled a much needed breath, "You're a dragon rider!?"
"Yeah, why so surprised?"
Fishlegs looked like he was about to have a heart attack, "I..I can't believe it….you actually can ride a Changewing….but wait….it's a male?"
She furrowed her brows wondering why they just couldn't believe this to be true so explained, "Ok, let me explain. There ARE male dragons of this breed but apparently you've never seen them. Look, the females are the main hunters and attackers whereas the males just lay low. My dragon is a repel so to speak, he WANTS to fight and protect the herd but the females don't like it because they're in charge and my stubborn dragon here doesn't like to take orders."
Hiccup just couldn't get over it, not to mention the dragon gently smacking her upside the head as she made a face at him murmuring, "I WAS going to tell them your name….but…."
Fishlegs was giddy, "Oooh, what did you name him." The woman whimpered sadly, "I actually did name him Changewing but now I have to change it. It took me FOREVER to name him and now I find out his species is called that…sheesh."
Said dragon just rolled his eyes and nuzzled her head, which she smirked and nodded understanding his hidden meaning. "I'm glad you're so cooperative today…..but before I forget we need to discuss something."
She glanced at the others and led her dragon a few paces away murmuring softly, "Do you want to leave? I mean, you'll have more dragons to hang around and play with and I'll have real people to talk to my own age. It'll be a new life for us and they seem really supportive and nice. I'm not leaving you no matter what you choose, we stick together."
Her dragon glared at the other Vikings, not trusting any of them….yet….but then again he never met a friendly human until Via. The dragon did like the idea of not dealing with the other females of his herd anymore and being free from his role as a bystander.
He grunted and she grinned, "Alright, we're ready to go!"
Hiccup smirked, "That's great, you'll love it on Berk and we'll find the perfect name for your dragon."
Via smiled softly, glad she felt like she belonged somewhere else aside from her dragon as they flew towards their destination but not before glancing back at her former prison of an island; though that experience changed her for the better.
She let out a heavy sigh before arching a brow seeing Tuffnut lazily grinning at her before his sister smacked him upside the head, "You're creeping me out bro, what are you staring at?"
He just smirked and muttered, "Oh nothing….just something beautiful." "What, the Changewing? We ALL know he's AWESOME!"
He just coughed, "Well….that too….but….AGH like YOU would understand!"
Via just laughed at their petty arguing, even when Snotlout joined in, as the others rolled their eyes and Astrid said, "Get use to it Via, this is what we're stuck with."
TBC:
I hope everyone likes this new change of pace :)
*Now, he's a Changwing dragon as you now and personality aggressive and stubborn (but loyal and friendly to the ones he likes); similar to Hookfang but he respects Via and actually won't listen to anyone else….yet.
