An outcast among Outcasts. Ch 1 revised
Ok so after a lengthy review from 348joey about many errors I have made in the corse of this story I am revising it. :)
Ok so I watched Dragons: riders of Berk episode 6 and 8 and thought to myself "hey what if Alvin the Treacherous had kids? And one of them was a hiccup?" well this is what came from that epiphany! Sadly I do not own "How to Train Your Dragon" or "Dragons: Riders of Berk" if I did the how to train your dragon 2 movie would come out faster than 2014. Thanks for reading enjoy the fanfic.
Revised.
Ch 1 intro
Rue's point of view...
2 weeks...
That's how long dad's been gone after the "dragon conqueror" and hasn't come back.
1 week...
Since he decided to try to conquer Dragon island.
My older brother, Rocktooth and I have been doing what we can to keep the dragons here at home at bay but with many of the best warriors gone it's hard to keep the beasties away.
Especially if you are a hiccup of a girl who her own father hates. That would be me. My name is Rueday. I was named this because my father "rued the day" I was born, but most call me Rue for short. I have hair like my father, long and blackish brown but with more shine to it, and eyes like my mom, a blue color only mine are a bit brighter than hers I think. My brother looks more like dad then I do, in fact it can be hard to tell them apart if my brother wasn't the only person, besides my mom, who ever showed me a bit of kindness on this Odin forsaken rock of an island, and the fact that he is a bit skinnier than him and doesn't have a beard.
We live on Outcast island, it's almost like Berk but has hardly any trees to speak of. It's basically a big rock in the middle of the ocean. It has one weirdly shaped mountain (I think it was a volcano at one point maybe), with a lake inside the middle of it, and a lot of weird multi-colored flowers around it. No one really knows about the lake and it's flowers so I like to go there some times. The one good thing about living here is the view. If you climb to the top of my house, or any tall structure really, you can see for forever. I like to sit up there and stare at the horizon in the day and watch the stars at night, when there aren't any dragon attacks happening anyway.
The outcasts all say I'm strange and should just leave this place and never return. They say I'm weird because I don't like to hurt anything, I like to create. I look around at all of them and I just have to agree with them. I think I'm nothin but a burden. I guess you could say I'm an outcast among the Outcasts.
This day started like any other. I woke up, did my chores as quickly as possible and left to my little sanctuary. Rocktooth was planning on being busy for the rest of the day and he was the only one who knew about my lake, so I could be alone as long as I wanted. I stayed up on the ridge (a wall of jagged rocks that protect the lake from view and access unless you know the secret) that circles the lake and looked towards the horizon. The same place where I had watched my father's ships sail out of sight. And there in the distance was a ship, heading straight towards the island.
Hiccup's point of view...
"Ugh! What happened" I thought to myself. Just then I heard a groan and shifting coming from my left. I turned to see Astrid sitting up next to me. We were both firmly lashed to a ship's mast. The events of the previous night came rushing back to me now.
I had been out flying with Astrid, Toothless, and Stormfly. We had gone down to the beach where I had planned a special surprise for her. I was going to give her a necklace I had made out of a blue rock that had looked like a Nadder. When we had gotten there though we had been ambushed from behind and knocked out. I remember staying awake enough to see nets dropped down on Stormfly and Toothless and some sort of dart pierced through their scales. I heard Toothless roar sleepily before I blacked out.
I started to look around our surroundings. I could see figures rowing at the sides of the ship and two large lumps a couple of feet away from me. It was to dark to see any details but I knew that they must have been the dragons.
By now Astrid was more awake and taking in the surroundings as well. She turned to me and murmured "What's going on Hiccup?"
A cruel laugh answered her before I could. "You are aboard my ship" laughed a cold familiar voice. My blood froze but I needed to be brave for Astrid.
"Oh it's just you, I thought it was someone we needed to be scared of," I said. That earned me a kick to the stomach from Alvin. He and his men laughed at my pain.
"What do you want with us?" Astrid demanded as I tried to catch my breathe. By now Toothless and Stormfly had woken up. Upon seeing us tied to the mast they began to growl and jerk against their bonds.
"Shut them up, or I will," Alvin threatened while drawing his sword. I heard him mutter about getting more darts from Trader Yohan the next time he stopped at Outcast island.
"Toothless… Stormfly… calm down …everything's… gonna be alright." I said in the most soothing manner I could, still a little breathless from the kick. The sun had begun to rise so now I could see that they were imprisoned in the same manner as when my father had taken Toothless.
They both had a wooden harness around their necks, iron loops attached to a platform to keep them from moving around to much, and muzzles to keep them from shooting fire at the crew. Stormfly had a bag over her tail to keep her from shooting spikes also. Both were glaring at Alvin but remained silent.
"What do you want Alvin?" Astrid demanded again.
"I've already got it," Alvin said with a smirk, "the dragon conqueror."
"Why are you taking us then," she asked.
Alvin chuckled darkly, "Insurance to make sure you do as you're told. You wouldn't want each other or your precious pets to end up hurt now would ya." Astrid glared at him.
"Where are you taking us?" I finally managed.
Alvin smirked again before turning and walking away. But I managed to make out one word he said as he left us alone. "Home."
