Warning: None

~Grand News~

~Dunbroch~

This was dark times, no one could predict the outcome of the invaders coming back into their homes forcing the various hunters to ran from their food sources along with gather their needed needs of water. But most isn't helping that the Lords come only give that they can, since they too are dealing with the same problem in their lands as well. But they need help, and more and more the people are losing their hope, food and water the more this invaders attack their lands.

Elinor was sitting at the dinning table in their meeting with the Lords along with one another. But what could they even discus about? There is no ground point on their arguments, but anger and various name calling towards the one guest that was called over for help.

"Lords! Please, enough of this childish behavior!" Elinor slams her hand onto the table.

"My excuses my Queen but I can't sit still as their is one of them in the room here." Lord Macintosh spoke out.

"Lord Marcintosh! Please, this is the only time we have someone that's could help us out of this war." Elinor scolded the Lord.

"My Queen, I'm not here to point any fingers towards anyone. But I can't fault my judgement when they've been more invasions towards our home as well." Lord MacGuffin confessed.

"We just want someone we can trust my Queen." Lord Dingwall soon followed.

"That is why I've called you all here. As you all know, Lord Stoick-"

"Please your highness, just Stoick." Stoick corrected.

"Stoick, is with as of right now. He is willing to help us through this war from the invaders that's coming into our food sources and various parts of land they are taking over." Elinor informed the Lords.

"We don't trust him." All three Lords spoke at the same time.

"Yes I know! But we must allow their help if we were to end this war!" Elinor slapped her hands onto the table once again as she stood back up glaring at the Lords.

With a long sigh she sat back down again, rubbing her temples together as if she was coming with a headache. Though the Queen has long and hard been working on plans to rid of the invaders, the only solution is from the Help from Berk. Only problem was that with what is going on, no one is willing to trust them since they don't live in their lands.

"I-I'm sorry my Lords it's been long and hard. These events are taking a toll on me..." She apologized.

"My Queen..." The Lords spoke softly.

"These times are tough... I don't know how long I can handle these times are to time... I know your reasoning for not trusting Stoick and his clan my Lords but we must in order to help ourselves... So this is where I am discussing my plans for our trust with Clan Berk." Elinor announced.

"This is where I ask you to help me in a time of need Stoick. This seems the only way we can get the help we need by doing what I need to ask you to do."

"What is it Queen Elinor?" Stoick questions.

"We must arrange Your son and my Daughters marriage." Elinor answered.

"But- Your highness-"

"I know I know. I told my daughter that she could chose her fate. But times are tough and I'm desperate for choices that will help us. Will this gain some trust in them?" Elinor sat back up.

"...Yes, this is how their treaty can confirm they won't turn against us."

Elinor nodded her head as she stood up from her chair.

"Very well. It is decided. I dismiss you my Lords. You may leave."

Each Lord stared at one another, as each of them knew the Queen wasn't going to continue the conversation anymore than that has spoken. Though the thought of marrying her daughter off in order to gain more for the war. Something you can't understand. The only two left in the room was Stoick and Elinor.

"Elinor. Please reconsider, there must be another way." Stoick spoke his thoughts out.

He doesn't want to marry off his son like this, something as hard as war coming along through both sides is getting harder for the both of them. Stoick had to lead their clan to Dunbroch for shelter since they were raided out of their home by armored dragons. More can say about the closer invasion coming near the castle that worries Elinor.

"Stoick, you and my husband were dear good friends long ago. I knew that very well, but since my husband is no longer with us. I can't say the same things will convince the Lords as it will for the others." Elinor informed Stoick.

"I would let you stay in Dunbroch all I can, but. Food is coming less around us through this war, water as well. And-... I'm sorry to say Stoick. But excuses my thoughts as they grow ever so tired I may be believing what everyone saids about Viking's. I don't mean this to harm you in anyway, but I can't wait any longer. This is something that I need to be dealt with right away. I only ask you Stoick as a dear friend to me and my husband to help us in a time of need." Elinor spoke.

"Very well. I accept this Marriage between our children." Stoick sadly nodded.

~Merida~

"No! I refuse!"

I was furious by my mothers decision towards forcing me into a marriage to gain a wage with this war, what happened to her saying we should let our children choose their own fate and write their own stories? I'm not going to let this war be the reason why I have to marry to some man, or Viking who could possibly hurt me as father was!

"Merida!" My mother yelled.

I only crossed my arms glaring at her with scorn eyes, I'm not letting her take over my life again. No I won't let this happened as she tried to control my life as last time.

"Please understand that you must marry to help us with this war. I didn't want to do this, but I had no choice."

"But ya did! You had every choice to make the Berk clan to sign a treaty!"

"Merida." My mothers tone warned me.

"The Lords still wouldn't trust them even if they were a family friend. I had to make something that would gain trust from our people and theirs. They too don't think they could trust our clan as well." My mother informed me.

I turned around in frustration, the tears were threatening to drop down from my face as I only wanted to run away from this place not wanting to come back once again.

"You are to be married in two weeks time and that is final."

"Why two weeks?"

"Because their leader and I see fit you too are to know each other before your marriage."

"This war is all you cared about!" I yelled.

"Even since dad died, that's all you've been caring about! Nothing about me or my brothers! I hate you! I never want to see you again!" My tears were falling more and more.

I ran out of my room as I quickly ran down the stairs trying to get my way outside of the castle, I almost ran into a man taller than. But I didn't want to say sorry in the condition I was in, I had to get to Angus. There Angus was ready for me to take him for a ride. I quickly climbed onto his back, kicking his sides lightly as she quickly road into the forest away from home.

How far were we from home? I'm not even sure that myself, Angus was galloping at full speed as I cried on his back. I couldn't help but cry since I knew my mother, would allow this out of all things. What am I going to do now? All I know is that I can't stop this marriage that's coming into my life, what else can I do? I can help and fight this war. But of course mother wouldn't allow me to do it. Though he may say it's improper for a lady, I know she doesn't want me to die like dad...

Dad... I wish you were here.

No! I can't cry again, I've got to move on. Carry on and grow stronger for dad, this is what he would want me to do. I can't-

Neigh! Angus screamed loudly and he hopped on his hinged legs as if something scare the poor boy out of his mind. Though I couldn't see what was scaring him, me telling him to calm down wasn't helping him any better.

"Angus, calm down! Angus!"

"Hello?" I heard a voice call out.

I wasn't going to take any chances of a possible invader coming to attack me, I pulled Angus to the opposite direction and he ran away from what ever was scaring and hopeful not to the invaders. I did't pay any attention towards the front only kept looking back making sure no one was following me. Angus continue running away as I looked behind us, He jumped over a large tree root and I almost fell over from the landing impact. I finally faced forward seeing we were about to run towards a ledge, I pulled on the reins making Angus stop in his tracks.

We were luckly since he stopped before we bother fell over. I looked behind us again seeing no one there again, I'm ready to go back home. I faced Angus away from the ledge as he starting neighing again as if something as scaring him.

"A-angus, calm down boy." I tried calming him.

Lifting on his hinged legs I slipped off his back falling towards the ledge of the cliff catching the ledge before I fall towards the water. Crap! What am I going to do?

"Angus! HELP!" I called to him.

Angus ran off as if whatever scared him before was coming towards us. What am I going to do? M-my hands are slipping... I grabbed one portion that was higher then my other hand, but because that was small ledge there for my hand and it was falling apart there I almost slipped. I was only hanging with one hand on the cliff. Was this it? Was there no one out there? I can't scream, not knowing who was out there could here me. But they've must of heard me before when I called to Angus.

My hand slipped and I screamed before I caught myself again on the ledge once again. My hands were hurting from scrapping them against the rocks.

"Hold on!" I heard a males voice yell.

I look up seeing the guy he was going to help me up, his face was cover with a leather helmet. The only portion you could see his his eyes, his armor was black with his other leather clothing being leather brown. His right shoulder had a shoulder pad with a red skull with horns on them, the left shoulder pad was smaller than the right and there was a split line with stitches running down the side. He had brown and black leather arm guards with a dagger blade on his left arm. While the right had some sort of circle metal on his right arm.

He looked as though he was trying to see if he could reach me from where he was at, I knew he couldn't reach me from the height he was at.

"I-I'm slipping!" I yelled.

"H-hang on!" He walked away.

How is he going to find a rope or something he let myself up in time? I told him I'm slipping! I tried pulling myself up seeing he wasn't going to help me out anytime soon but due to the rock slipping towards my hands I lost my grip and felling towards the water. I closed my eyes seeing there was nothing that was going to stop my demise, I felt something caught my arms before I thought the water was going to catch me. I opened my eyes looking forward seeing no one there but seeing I was being lifted up towards the area I had fallen off of.

I was dropped off on my feet and I looked behind me seeing the same man I saw earlier with a black creature I've never seen before.

"You alright?" He asked me as he hopped off the creature I assume he's friends with.

"W-what is that?" I ask point at the black creature.

"Oh that's Toothless, my Nightfurry dragon."

"A DRAGON!" I was surprised to see a-... Nightfurry?

Though there was seeings of possible dragons from the invaders coming near out lands but no one could really confirm if they were with these people. They only attacked with their people but if there are dragons among them, I will believe now that the clan attacking us has dragons now.

"You've never seen dragons before?" He asks me.

Wait, I don't even know this man. How am I sub post to know I can trust this man? He could be an invader, plus why would he need to hide his face if he wanted to? Then again why did he save me?

"No. But first who are you?" I questioned him as I ready myself for an possible attack.

His dragon growled at me seeing I was ready to attack his friend, though this man was taller than me but he was skinny for his body type. I'm not going to let that change my thoughts of him possible attacking me. I saw him put his hand out in front of Toothless as if he knew he was there right next to him.

"Easy buddy." His hand went to his helmet as he pulled it off taking it off his head.

He shook his head back and forth letting his hair free from being enclosed inside, as he stares at me. His eyes were like of Emerald green. His hair was a Dark Brown and didn't have a left leg as it look, it has wood with metal stool on the bottom for support. This man lost his leg foot from something that I'm not sure about.

"Hiccup." He answered.

"Your full name."

"Hiccup Haddock Horrendous iii, I came here from Clan Berk." Hiccup introduced himself.

"Oh the clan that has their chiefs son marrying the Princess?" He doesn't need to know I'm the Princess.

"Yeah pretty much, I only came here just to explore the area before our clan visits the castle." Hiccup shrugs.

"Well, I'm Merida."

"Nice to meet you Merida." Hiccup smiled.

Well now that I know where Hiccup is from at least I know he's not from the invaders clan or some place I wouldn't know. Though I could ask who is their chief's son is. Mom never told me who he was when she told me this morning, all she told me what that he's coming today I need to be dress for dinner.

"Look I'm trying not to start anything. I heard your horse and I figured he was scared because of Toothless. Sorry about that, I didn't know you were around here." Hiccup apologized.

"Oh no. Angus!" I called him out.

"Here we can look for him on Toothless." Hiccup extended his hand out towards me.

"Are ya sure?" I asked him.

"Don't worry, Toothless was only growling because he wants to protect me." Hiccup informs me.

At first I'm hesitant, but I then took his hand seeing I wouldn't have much help doing it on my own. Hiccup helped me up sitting behind him, I was worried I had to hold onto something seeing we'll be flying up.

"Hold onto the seat." Hiccup warns me.

I do as he tells me and Toothless jumps into the air flying into the sky, this scares me so instead of holding onto the seat I held around his waist for dear life. I slowly open my eyes seeing how high up the sky we were at, I've never seen the sky this high up before unlike the time I climbed the Fire Falls. But this is different. This was amazing, my mouth was open to how beautiful the sky and sun was. I was pulled out of my trance when Hiccup was calling for me.

"Merida?"

"W-what?"

"Is that your horse?" Hiccup points down seeing Angus drinking water from the stream

"Angus! That's him!"

I might have yelled in his ear without realizing I did. But Hiccup quickly landed close to Angus so that way he wouldn't be scared again and run off. I hopped off quickly as I ran to Angus hugging his neck.

"Ya crazy horse, I'm just glad your fine." I smiled at Angus.

Angus nibbled at my hair as a way of saying 'I'm sorry' to me he did this to me before when he was scared of the wisps that frighten him. I'm just glad no one came to try to steal him or harm him in anyway. I turn around looking over to where Hiccup was standing next to Hiccup starring at me. I walked Angus near Hiccup and Toothless before he starts pulling away not wanting to come any closer. I calm Angus down and stop us from walking any further seeing he needs some time to get use to a dragon there.

"Sorry, I guess he doesn't like your dragon." I spoke out.

"I'm sorry about scarring him off, plus that's what made him knock you over the ledge." Hiccup was walking over towards us I just only wanted to stop him.

"No no it's fine. I just glad you were there before I fell off." I smiled at Hiccup.

It's as though I could trust Hiccup even though he's a Vikings, something tells me that I could be friends with this man here even if were are from different parts of places. Though I don't know much about Hiccup I feel as if were friends already. I look up towards the sky and realize it was almost half day, I know mom wants me back by lunch to make sure I behave before our guests come for dinner. Can't wait for my future husband...

"What's wrong?" Hiccup asks me.

"Oh- I-I just realize I need to be getting back home. My mom needs me at the house before dinner."

"Oh uh... Can I-... Uh- I mean, I might see you again." Hiccup smiled.

"We might." Smile back.

I hopped onto Angus's back and road back home where I knew my mother wouldn't be happy with what happened.

~Dunbroch Castle~

"Merida!" Elinor called her daughter.

Merida was hopping she could avoid her mother this one time before going back up to her room to clean herself, that way her mother wouldn't know about anything that had happened.

"Mom." She answered.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt?" Elinor ran up to hug her daughter.

"I'm fine mom really. I can take care of myself." Merida flaky smiles.

"You know better than-... I was just worried any of those invaders coming after you... I fear'd you wouldn't come back." Elinor hugged her daughter again.

Merida's mom was holding her dearly as if her daughter was going to be taken away at any moment she never wants anything to happen to her daughter.

"Mom?"

"Look, we already ate our lunch for the day. Why don't you go get yourself cleaned up, our guest will be coming in a couple of hours from now." Elinor informs her daughter.

"But I thought they were coming for Dinner." Merida spoke out.

"They were but they have different occupation they must attended to. I had just gotten a letter right after you left." Elinor smiles at her daughter.

"Fine." Merida walks up to the stairs where she goes to her room closing the door behind her.

Merida at least gotten on things she didn't want her mother to know is what happened to her ealier, but that knowing now her future husband is coming soon was only making her angry. She grabbed another dress and under garments and ran to the bath room. She locks the door getting her self undress to cool herself in her bath from her anger. Once she sees her future husband, she was going to kill him.

~Hours Later~

Merida was ready, cleaned and dressed to meet her so called 'husband' her mother was telling her about, not only that but to see what Clan Berk has with their dragon. She was wishing to herself that perhaps she might see Hiccup again, but something like that wouldn't happened. Though she wish she had ask about the reasoning behind his name given to him. But she was sitting in the Throne waiting for Clan Berk to come in the door as the doors opened. First person she saw the clan leader was Stoick. He was a very tall and large man, he had his furry cape one with leather armor covering his shirt and bottom.

He had two circle metal pads on his shoulders to protect him and a metal helmet that had horns on them. His dragon was just as big no.. Bigger I guess that's perfect for him being a big chief. But I saw a lot of people coming behind which I'm guessing people from his clan with all of their dragons. All big small and different types of dragons that I don't even know existed.

"Your Highness, my Clan has come here as we arrange for the marriage between my son and your daughter." Stoick spoke out.

"Yes, I see your clan but where is your son?" Elinor questions.

That is right. Where was Stoick's son? He hasn't arrived from the clan as of yet since everyone was already looking at each other in Berk shrugging their shoulders.

"Yes, it seems my son lost his way here-"

"I'm here!"

Right before Stoick spoke anymore, his son ran up into the soon to stand next to his dad with his dragon next to him.

"There you are. Here is my Son Hiccup Haddock Horrendous iii my only child and first born." Stoick announced.

Both Hiccup's and Merida's eyes widen as they saw each other, though one thought would have never thought the two that had meet no too long ago would know that their destiny is to marry to each other. But this only made Merida even frustrated seeing she is going to marry a Viking, why out of all people she had to marry a Viking?

"I thank you all for coming there since I do know you have arrangements later today you may go to them. By morning we will help all of your people build houses here in Dunbroch." Elinor spoke out.

"Thank you, your highness." Stoick bowed along with everyone in their clan.

Stoick turned to his son nodding at him letting him know he is to stay here to get to know the Princess since he's going to marry her in two weeks time. Everyone from Berk had left the castle with only Elinor, Merida and Hiccup in the room. Elinor stood up from her chair walking to Hiccup as she greeted him with a smile.

"Hello Hiccup, I am Queen Elinor." Elinor greeted.

"H-hello your highness." Hiccup bowed.

"There is no need for that Hiccup. You are marrying my daughter soon, so there is no need for you to bow. You may call me Elinor." Elinor smiled.

"This is my daughter Merida." Elinor waved her daughter to come to them.

Merida walked down the stairs walking up to stand next to her mother as she stared at Hiccup only showing a blank face. She knew if she starting yelling her mother would yell at her.

"It's nice to meet you Princess." Hiccup bowed.

Merida secretly moan in disgust seeing she was going to marry this Viking out of all people.

"Since you two are to be acquaintance no more, I shall leave you two to talk with one and another." Elinor smiled at the soon to be married couple.

She left Hiccup alone with Merida after the doors close the two could finally speak each others thoughts.

"I can't believe it was you!" Merida yelled.

"A thank you could be said." Hiccup sarcastically spoke.

"I would never thank you." Merida spat.

"Well, that's great to know my soon to be wife is grateful for saving her life. Next time maybe, I'll let you fall!" Hiccup rolled his eyes.

"I don't want you near me or my family." Merida threatened.

"You think your enjoy being pushed into this Arranged Marriage? I don't either! I never wanted this as much as you do! I never asked for this!" Hiccup screamed.

"Neither did I." Merida stood her ground in front of Hiccup, not wanting to back away from this argument.

There was no works between the two, you could see the hatred, rage and disgust in their eyes for one and another.

"I hope you die from a fall." Merida stomped her feet as she run towards the stairs to her room.

"Same to you Princess! Oh sorry, did I say Princess? I meant Veslingr!"

"What does that mean?"

"Figure it out yourself!" Hiccup ran outside calling Toothless to his side so he could fly away calming himself from this argument.

AN: Veslingr (VEHS-ling-uhr) — puny wretch. I had fun writing this chapter, Hiccup seems to be in a unlucky predicament than he planned seeing the Princess he's going to marry is making it harder for him to enjoy some peace between them. I know what your wondering, why is Merida so mad? Well, you'll fine out soon in the next chapter :D.
