A Family Divided
To answer the mystery of where Stoick and Valka's children where? They're as far away as they could get from home. Right now over the vast ocean far from Berk zooming across the azure seawater like a trio of dazzling multicolor blazing comets were the six siblings. Three dragons and six humans.
The dragons didn't look very different from five years ago, slightly bigger perhaps, though their Riders had beyond doubt gotten bigger in addition sported new outfits complete with full face masks.
It also seemed to be clear, they're trying to run or perhaps the correct term was fly, away from whatever Stoick and Valka, had been conversing about during the Dragon Race back on Berk. Not only that they're being a bit reckless in their efforts to do anything to get whatever their running from out of their minds.
This was undoubtedly evident by the way their pushing their dragons to their limits and they clearly need to get some type of a high. A high that was indicative of only one kind of an addict. An adrenaline daredevil junkie addicts and unquestionably all three of them had a powerful addiction to this thrill.
It was also clear this had become a dangerous even daily need to get this high. Given from the fact the numerous perilous aerial tricks they're doing and obviously been working on doing for an extremely long time. This was way more than just practice to improve skills; this was unquestionably a means to escape their problems that could've fatal consequences.
Just how lethal was about to become apparent as the sibling were urging their dragons to get even higher in the skies in the air; however it was clear the dragons didn't want to go even higher.
"C'mon, buddy! If we're gonna pull it off this time we've estimated we need to be at least another mile higher in the sky. So come on climb!" Hiccup urged his Night Fury though his voice was muffled through his mask.
Toothless who was now both a husband and soon to be father made a growl of disapproval to his best friend's request.
"He's saying "No Way, Hiccup! I ain't having your death over my head before I become a dad!" Boden yelled over the wind as he got wacked by Stardust who let him know she wasn't approving of what the plan was either. "Hey Stardust! That was uncalled for!"
"Oh, will all of you stop fighting? Geez! And I'm supposed to be the child! Really! Please can we try this one more time? Pretty, pretty please? We've done all the math work, factor in all the weather patterns and we have our powers aid us in case something goes wrong!" Una was pleading desperately with all the dragons even her own who was being firm with her.
"C'mon, Buddy? Please just one more time? If we mess up this time I swear we won't try it again, Haddock Promise?" begged Hiccup and Toothless started talking with his sister and brother who all seemed to give in begrudgingly and went to a higher altitude with the human siblings screaming "YES!"
Once they're judged to be high enough they took a big breath and counted together before slipping off the side of the dragons and plummeting in a free fall to the ocean below them.
The dragons counted three seconds before folding their wings and falling alongside them. Faster and faster they fell with their dragons spinning around them, then at the last moment they all opened what apparently were flight suits of different colors that launched them skyward till they could glide freely in heavens above.
"Alright! Yes, total freedom!" yelled Hiccup delightfully as they soared like dragons.
"Okay time to test out if we can do what we've been trying to do, bro. Flight formation time! V Formation now!" yelled Boden and they fell into with their dragons.
"Okay, give us some extra height back there! Now!" yelled Una and their dragons carefully aimed burst of their attacks to give off pockets of warm air to give them lift.
"Okay that's good, now time to test our acrobatics. Do a spin and flip and then we'll change position!" yelled Una and they performed in flawlessly.
"Okay a little more lift back there again and see if you can reach your weapons in case of attack!" Hiccup was starting to instruct the dragons when Una yelled out.
"Incoming danger in five minutes! I can sense it! We need dragon cover now!"
"Dragon cover now!" Hiccup order and the dragons all fired into the mist before curling around their Riders and not a moment too soon as a huge sea stake came out of nowhere and everyone braced for impact and a crash landing.
There was the sound of a huge explosion, lots of tumbling and finally all smacking into the hard ground. When they all became untangled everyone couldn't help but laugh from the danger and fell to the ground laughing more when they saw the sea stake crumple to dust into the sea.
It was then the three of them took of their mask and shook out their hair and now if anyone looked at Hiccup, Boden and Una they wouldn't recognized them from five years ago at all. Not if they hadn't seen them in five years for sure.
They were no longer small and scrawny at all. Both Hiccup and Boden were at least 6'1 and Una despite only being ten years old now was only an inch shorter than them.
Their parents were also right when they'd said their children were now highly attractive as both Hiccup and Boden were extremely sexy looking. Once more looking almost identical apart from again different outfits plus the fact Boden's hair was in a ponytail which now reach nearly to his butt.
Una now was almost the spitting image of her mother because her hair had grown long enough to wear it in the same hairstyle; only it was still blond with the last four inches being still brilliant lilac in color thanks to those magical flowers.
Even their outfits only made them that more attractive. Hiccup's was black and red leather, Boden wore an outfit that was a mixture of a teal tunic shirt overlaid with red-violet leather, melted silver scales from Stardust with tan leather pants and boots.
Una herself was already blossoming into early womanhood having really taken after their mother apparently. Una had hit puberty extremely early and naturally had been like any other girl confused and a little frighten by the changes in her body.
Especially waking up to find blood one night on her bed. Her mother told her they're a lot alike as she'd blossomed into womanhood early as well and would be there guide her every step of the way.
Given that you'd never guess she was merely ten years old. Not when she was already six feet tall in addition to even now acquiring an envies figure plus starting to fill out in all the right places.
Also her outfit didn't mark her as a child anymore either. She was wearing a red leather top with a tiny keyhole, red leather pants, armor shoulder and knee guards, leather boots, her skirt and sleeves were made of Nightrainbow's shedded scales and a cloth headband with sparkly pinkish stones sewn into it.
"On a scale from one to ten, my BBBFF? I give that crash a ten! It was awesome, cool and plus we almost finally nailed our stunt flying!" Una squealed loudly with tightly then yelped as Nightrainbow tripped her. "Hey!"
"That was uncalled for Nightrainbow! Oh, don't you start either Toothless! They say any crash you can walk away from is a good one! Aww! Toothless!" pouted Hiccup as Toothless was chuckling have knocked over Hiccup too.
"Okay I'll play peacemaker and so my dragon doesn't try to literally knock sense into me too. I get it. You're telling us we took a big risk and yes we could've been hurt seriously. We get it that life full of risks and danger, after the last five years, I mean how could we not? Hey don't look at me like that, Stardust!" Boden was yelping as his dragon was glaring at him.
"The point we are trying to make we are grateful you are always there to watch our backs as we watched your backs all this time. And yeah we may've been," the dragons gave them death glares so he amended "Okay we have thrown caution to the wind too much lately. We apologize." Hiccup finished apologizing to the dragons who seemed to be satisfied from that.
"So how about we first name this new land we seemed to have discovered then have some fun? You know stay out as late as we can before we have to go home?" suggested Una casting her beautiful blue eyes at the land before them.
"Great suggestion, sis," Hiccup said as he got stuff out of his suit that they'd been using to map out what was beyond their known world for a couple of years now.
"So which of the dragons turns is it to name this new land?" inquired Una as they always asked their dragons to help them name new things when they discovered them together.
"It's Toothless's turn. So what do you want to name this land?" Boden asked the Night Fury who expected to need to use his Dragon Whispering to actually translate Toothless's 'words' but instead Hiccup just took what Toothless was doing at the moment for his name.
"Okay, Itchy Armpit it is. Boden are you sensing any new dragons at the moment? Or anything at the moment? Or do you want to try an astral project to see what's ahead?"
"I'm not sensing any dragons nearby at the moment and I don't feel like looking ahead at the moment. How about you, Una? You getting any visions past or present with this land or feelings we should be aware of?"
"I'm sensing nothing to tell us past history nor am I seeing anything at the moment of the future either. I don't sense any danger and I highly doubt there's a trigger object nearby. Nor am I hearing any spirit voices. How about you, Hiccup? Got anything?"
"I'm not picking up any memories or hearing anyone at the moment who in distress and doesn't look like anyone needs me to heal them. Therefore I guess we can just have some fun and play."
"So let's play then!" and soon they're running around just playing tag, wrestling, laughing and just having a grand time till they burnt out some. So using their dragons like large pillows they just start to reminisce about the past five years.
"It's hard to believe everything that has happen in five short years. I mean really five years and how much everything changed? We all went from being small, scrawny runts to smoky sexy hot!" Una squealed with delight yet again with her brothers looking at her in a strange way.
"Una, please don't talk like that. You know Mom and Dad won't want you to talk like that even if we are now exceptionally eye-catching. It's just not right for a ten year old even one who is becoming such a beautiful woman," Hiccup reminder her kindly.
Sighing she nodded, "I know, I know, Hiccup, you and Boden have told me. Just like Mommy and Daddy have told me a zillion times. And Boden don't say it. I told you both I'm going call them Mommy and Daddy even when I'm old and gray!"
"I wasn't gonna say anything. I've got no problem with it. Everyone is entitled to call their parents whatever they like."
"Okay, I know some of the other Riders and few our friends, their siblings still find at my age and size it's like wrong. But they'll always be Mommy and Daddy to me."
"We understand, Una. We do and there are many facts of life we don't understand. We don't know how we gonna look when were born or how we are gonna develop as we get older.
Though I guess even though we all started off small and scrawny we should've know we get pretty tall. I mean Dad is 6'9 and Mom is 6'3. Therefore me and Boden being 6'1 and you being six feet is sorta of expected, I guess."
"I totally agree with that, Hiccup. I also agree that Una's right we are sexy now. And I know what Una gonna say before she's gonna say it. And no I'm not reading your mind or your emotions its just because you've said it a million times before, Una," Boden looked at her before she could open her mouth.
"You're constantly saying if Hiccup got the most beautiful and wonderful girl on Berk as his true love, and I got the hottest girl from one of our allies as my girlfriend, then the Gods better be fair to you, and give you a totally awesome and hot boyfriend who will also become your husband."
"I'm just saying what fair is fair!" she threw her hands up in the air dramatically as she'd done a million times before whenever the topic of true love got brought up. Una always got a tad dramatic about it.
"Hiccup, you and Astrid are the hottest item on Berk and then Boden?" eyeing her other brother and then went with slight drama though reigning it some "Well after the Dragon Harmony Alliance was created after the defeated of Dagur's psychopath cousin Axel and we reunited the Screaming Death with its mother," as they call to mind that crazy insane battle.
"Yeah, Una, that was a doozy of a day." Hiccup who was replaying the memories for all of them with his gift as they saw for themselves what had occurred.
"Though conclusion was pretty awesome for five tribes at least, we can all agree right?" as the memories continued to dance around their mind's eye.
"It united Berk with two tribes whom we were at war with before, the Outcasts and Berserkers. Then we made allies with two new tribes we discovered shortly after those events, and ever since then the five tribes been united. I'd say that was one of the better things we've accomplished."
"Yeah, that was indeed one of our greater accomplishment no doubt about that big bro. Also because of the Dragon Harmony Alliance something wonderful happen to me," Boden spoke in dreamy voice as a romantic look crossed his face.
They knew what he was thinking of and he confirmed with his words what had happened next for him. "I did found my true love after we discovered and made allies with both the Shardas and Moralien clans. And then Chief Leontes of the Moralien Clan younger daughter Asta and I fell hopelessly and helplessly in love!"
"We're very happy for you bro, we really are. You and Asta are make a good couple. It also helped us out tremendously seven most important kids of the Moralien Clan and the blacksmith's grandson of the Shardas Clan were such quick studies on Dragon Riding.
Having them learn to Dragon Ride and forming a backup team to help us out occasional whether it be for mission or parts of the alliance was very beneficial in several different ways. Plus it made it easier for all of us to visit each other and keep our friendships stronger and intact as well," Hiccup chuckled happily about what happened in a year and half time after the Dragon Harmony Alliance was first established.
"Yeah, I thought the name they called themselves was always cool. "The Soul Riders" They were ever so helpful after we discovered Dragon's Edge weren't they? Whenever we'd to do long term missions or needed someone to help out they'd be there in a heartbeat to protect Dragon's Edge.
Or babysit the other Riders siblings if they're visiting or we got called away an unexpected mission," Una recalled how useful the Soul Riders had been and still were in their lives.
"Overall we've had a lot of good times, I'll say that. Though what were some of your favorite memories we made just at home and not on Dragon's Edge? Since we did have a few unpleasant ones there. I mean one unpleasant thing was you trying to commit 'suicide' Hiccup! Even though it did lead to all of us getting flight suits in the end," joked Boden which brought up a lot of laughs and a few grimaces as well.
Given Hiccup had pretty much been trying to commit suicide in the process of trying to build their flight suits, and Una in fear for her big brother's life and sanity had told their parents. They'd immediately come to Dragon's Edge and taken him home and well what happened to him for two weeks was a family secret. Hiccup had been allowed to retuned till they determined he wasn't gonna kill himself or do something to harm himself in front of his brother and sister.
Trying to not dwell on that unpleasant memory Boden instead brought up another one instead. "Or how about the time Snotlout thought he was stealing treasure from us when it was in fact Dad's birthday gift?
And because he stole it we had that huge fight and when he and Twins tried open the chest it made the Night Terrors and Glistening Mistbreath go to war with each other due to their sensitive ears and we'd to save them?"
"Or even worse the time Viggo kidnapped me and made you go through hellish torture to rescue me?" Una recalled hatefully that memory on the other hand smiled with pride at her big brother for saving her from that creep.
"Okay, let's not remember bad things. Happy thoughts, please! Boden what was one of your favorite memories we made right here on Berk?"
"The time we discovered the true treasure of Hamish II so no more false paintings be put on the wall and gave Hamish and his little sister justice and in turn ourselves."
"Okay, Una what was some of yours?"
"When we did good deeds and our powers grew stronger because of it. I mean I liked it when we helped save Scauldy and got the Speed Stingers off Berk, even if we had to put up with Trader Johann rambling all night.
And any time we discovered new abilities or again our powers got stronger and we'd learned better control that always made me happy."
"Yeah that was always good even though we had to deal with so many jerks along the way. From Mildew, to Alvin, and Axel. I mean we though dealing with Dagur one a year but compare him with his cousin he's sweet and kind!" Boden exclaimed as they couldn't believe it either.
"I still wish Mommy had gotten to finish Mildew off long ago!"
"Yeah, well can't have everything in life, sis."
"Yeah suppose not. And though they say more things change more things stay the same. If only that was truly true," and they all hung their heads in sadness.
"Yeah, I don't want things to change. Not anymore."
Just then they heard a familiar dragon cry looking up in time to see Astrid and Stormfly show up. Not surprised at all she could track them down. Hiccup smiled as Astrid ran up to him and they did their typical romantic embrace with a passionate kiss.
Boden smiled now that he knew how it felt to kiss your true love and Una looked on enviously still wishing that her date with true love would come sooner rather than later.
"So what brings you out yonder?" Hiccup inquired to his beautiful true love as Stormfly went off to play tug-of-war with the other dragons. Astrid seemed too hesitate for a moment as the reason she'd flow half way across the known world to track the siblings down.
"Well, I just won today Dragon Race."
"Congratulations. That means you've won like what now 8 out of 12 races this season?" Hiccup racking his brain for a second to pull up the stats.
"Yeah and you've won the other four. Which begs the question where were you three?"
"Huh?"
"Well, Hiccup you're supposed to be competing in the Races, Boden's job is to make sure the dragons aren't mistreated or stressed out and Una's suppose to the same for the sheep.
However, you've been mysteriously absent for several races now and for many other things. It's really starting to worry your parents and the rest of us. You three did teach us how to be good big brothers and sisters ourselves. So what's going on? Why are you three all of sudden scarce and nowhere to be found?"
"We are trying to avoid Mommy and Daddy to be honest. Especially Daddy if you want the truth." Una blurted out the truth to which her brothers glared back at her.
"What? She was gonna get it out of us sooner or later! Might as well just tell her now and save the next 20 minutes of trying to dodging the arrows of trying to get it out of us!"
"She does have a point, Hiccup. Like you could ever lie to Astrid anyway. Beside you can't lie anyway to save your life. Might as well just tell her the truth and save us all the grief," Boden told him as he flicked his long ponytail over his shoulder and his older brother nodded in defeat.
"You're both right of course. Might as well just caught to the chase and get this over with. Okay, Astrid we are trying to avoid our father because of something he told us about a week and half ago. Some very terrible awful news."
"Whatever it is must be really awful if you all trying to find the end of the earth given how far you're going to try and get away from home. That and how reckless you've all become. But what is so awful that you're acting like the end of the world has come? Since I'm sure this ain't Ragnarok?"
"Trust us, Astrid, what Daddy told us is far worse the Ragnarok!" Una was very insisted to the blond haired warrior who looked at her in disbelief.
"What's worse than the end of the world?"
"How about the end of our lives as we know it? The end of our family? The end of us?! The end of everything we've worked our entire lives to do and build? Everything we ever accomplished?!" Boden exclaimed in the way he got when his strange moods went to the extreme when they shifted so rapidly.
"What are you three talking about? Spit it out and stop giving me such cryptic riddles. What did your father tell you guys that is so awful that you think that it's worse the end of the world and the end of your lives?"
"He wants to make me Chief!" yelled Hiccup at last in an anger tone his cheeks flushed with fury and then kicked at a large stump with his left foot in fury.
Astrid was taken aback for a few moments then exclaimed happily. "Oh, Hiccup! That's amazing! Wonderful news! You must be so excited!" she leapt into his arms and kissed him only for him to push her away.
"Hiccup? What's wrong? Did I do something wrong? What's wrong? Am I missing something?"
"You and everyone else on Berk are all alike on this issue, I'm sorry, Astrid. None of you get it, do you? If I'm made Chief it means the end of everything! My life and my brother and sister lives are over, forever!"
"I don't understand?"
"How do you not get what is plain as day?" demanded Boden in a biting voice, "The only person that matters to the stupid village is the Chief! If Hiccup the Chief Una and I won't matter at all.
And the second Hiccup's in charge we will be shoved to the side and forgotten all about and never get to spend another second with our brother since everyone will demand every little thing from him 24/7!" yelled Boden in a furious frenzy!
"Haven't you realized for yourself after all this time the truth? Yes, we are three strong individual, that' true. But we are the perfect team, it's together as one we are perfect and can do miracles. Apart we are nothing! But no it's always the firstborn that matters!
If Hiccup's in charge again Boden and I don't matter anymore and Hiccup will never manage without us and Berk needs all three of us! But because of stupid traditions only the firstborn is important and he'll be alone. Even though he needs us!
Because we are strong together and only together can Berk continue to prosper! But that' won't happen because this is one thing that won't change. So not only will both us be forgotten everything Berk's gained with crumble to dust and what could've been will never be!"
"And the worst part of it all we all be alone, Astrid. Also did anyone ever ask what any of us wanted? Like even if this is my birthright did anyone ask if I wanted to become Chief? Or if I feel I'm ready for it? Even if I am of age?
We are still asking ourselves the big questions that have yet to be answered, Astrid. We are still trying to figure out who we are, what we want, what are we truly meant to be and do with our lives. And now this has to be thrown into our lives?" Hiccup shook his head and turned away as they all did looking out at the distant horizon as if the answers to their personal quest were out there.
Astrid was very quiet for a few moments choosing her words carefully before speaking. "I'm sorry I didn't stop to think how you three might be feeling about this change in your lives.
I guess I still every now and then have to remember to look through another's eyes and walk a mile in their shoes. Though I do feel you have nothing to fear at all. I don't think your parents would ever let any of those things happen.
As for your personal questions and the answers you're seeking? To figuring out your destiny? You won't find the answers even if you went to ends of the Earth and beyond. For what three of you are looking for won't be found out there but within yourselves."
"Maybe your right, at least about our destiny, Astrid," Hiccup allowed as she started to braid some of his hair.
"Though how can you be so sure about the rest of it?" Boden wanted to know as he plucked some grass absentmindedly from around them.
"Yeah, a lot has changed but I don't things ever change that much."
"I may not be blessed with the gifts you three were given though I feel in my own heart you won't be busted up," as she was finishing with the last braid in Hiccup's hair when he jerked quickly and stood up.
He had a look she'd come to know well. He was sensing someone was calling for help. "Someone in trouble. I can feel it and it not just one person but a lot of hearts are crying out in pain. Though one heart a big one is crying out for help more than the others."
"I can feel it too, bro. I'm feeling a dragon presence I've never felt before. The emotions and thoughts I'm getting I can only describe is sorta of kingly. A noble and honorable soul full of overwhelming compassion, wisdom, courageous, generous."
Pausing for a moment to take a breath to sort out all he'd taken from the long distance feeling of whatever dragon he was picking up on he looked at his family and Astrid before finishing with, " I've never felt a dragon who I feel commanded such respect or importance as to what I'm feeling from this one!"
"I think I'm seeing what you're feeling, Boden. I see a great white dragon we've never seen likes before in my mind's eye. I'm also foresee a great deal of ice, countless other dragons we've never before encountered, a great battle full of great sorrow and heartache, though that's the limit of what I can foresee at the moment, I'm afraid."
Then all of sudden the three Haddocks were full of a feeling a feeling that they couldn't really put into words. But it was something that enter both their hearts and souls. It was as if their being summoned to a location and they'd to get there ASAP.
Whatever was causing this feeling was at least pulling them in a certain direction at least for the moment. They could see a thick cloud of billowing smoke at the moment and knew for now that's where they'd to go.
The foursome took off in that direction towards the smoke not sure what they're about to encounter and who was calling Hiccup, Boden and Una, yet after five years and many adventures they'd at least knew to stay sharp and alert.
As they got closer to the location Boden's Dragon Whispering powers became more apparent. He'd literally mimic the body language and mannerism of dragons if they're sick, injured or left a strong emotional impact.
Right now his posture and behavior was matching the kingly personality he'd felt from their original location, the odd thing was he felt like spiting a lot when they'd got closer to the new structure.
As they flew closer they saw it was some kind of fort incased in thick ice with massive footprints in the mud. Hiccup was trying to glen memories from any source that might be nearby as well as hone in on the ones who'd sent out their heart's distress signal.
When they're in 20 feet of the destroyed structure Una's powers were already showing her a chaotic image of a large white dragon attacking this structure under the cover night with several others and there was too much chaos to sort it out.
"What is this place? Are you three getting anything useful?" inquired Astrid twisting her head around not really paying attention to what was going on around them.
They're just about to answer when Una yelled out loudly, "Astrid! Look out!"
"Huh? Ahh!" as a net shot out of nowhere and she and Stormfly fell out of the sky. Hiccup dove to save his girlfriend and Boden and Stardust went after Stormfly.
The men of this destroyed place were trying to tie her up further and being ordered about a guy in his twenties but he didn't get very far with his instructions when a blinding flash blinded them.
"What?! What's going on?!" as they shield their eyes from Stardust's shimmering body and then Boden took out his sword that was shaped like Stardust and it was special.
Gripping it hard he made a swipe motions and hit a button which released a bolt of lightning! It made them step back and he sent out three more to get them to back further away.
Then strange music was heard as Una was flying nearby with a dragon bone ocarina to her mouth. She was playing a strange melody. It was having a strange effect on the men. It made them almost go into a trance and she then said in a commanding voice.
"Drop your weapons and take five big steps away from that dragon now!" which they did. Then she played a different melody that was more soothing and it seemed to erase everyone's aggression and calm them down.
About this time everyone else had landed and Hiccup was in front with the other flanking him and he'd drawn his flaming sword and looked at Una who'd played two short notes releasing them from her spell.
"What? What's going on? What's with you idiots? Why aren't you securing that dragon? And who are you people? And those…. Those are the Three Legendary Dragons aren't they?!" exclaimed the leader in shock and a smile lit up his face.
"Well, boy's looks like our luck changed. Drago will be most pleased if the Three Dragons of Legend are in his Dragon Army."
"Okay, back up and let's start over. How about before you start talking about someone we don't know about you tell us who you are and why you're trying to take our dragons?" asked Hiccup.
"And why you're trying to build an army with the spiritual brothers and sister to the human race?" Boden demanded with his own sword still crackling with lightning.
"And please answer our questions truthfully. We don't want any trouble and maybe we can avoid trouble if we all play nicely?" Una suggested as she clutched her ocarina tightly.
"Why should we tell you anything? If you rode in here on dragons who's to say you didn't send that massive ice-spitting white dragon who gives us Dragon Trappers a hard time every time we try and do our job?" the man accused.
"We don't know you or anything about a massive white dragon who can shoot ice. We're not even from around here!" Hiccup informed him, "But I'd side with a dragon who rescue its kind from any people who trap and harm them, to be honest."
"Dragon Lovers, so you ride them and you side with them you said? Are you sure you didn't send it? Look Drago Bludvist gave us a job to do and that's get him as many dragons as possible for his army and if we don't fill the quota well, it's not pretty what he does if you don't pay up," the man showed them a burn scar on his chest.
All the time this conversation was going on these Trappers had no idea the Haddocks were getting a lot more information even from their lack of words. Thanks to their gifts which after five long years they'd finally mastered.
Boden could see and hear in his mind's all the poor souls these Trappers had caught and taken to this mysterious man. It was clearly a vast army like they said and he felt those dragons despair as well.
Una was getting flashes of multiply different events of past dealings these trappers had dealt with, both their trapping and even just saw this man get his scar. Even a few hints were their boss might be hiding.
And the longer he got him to talk Hiccup was picking up some precious memories to this man he was dealing with heart. "Why don't you at least tell me your name? Since I'd like to know who I'm talking to at least."
"I suppose I could tell you that at least. I'm Eret Son of Eret and I'm the finest Dragon Trapper in the World. Since not just anyone can trap the Dragons of Legend."
"Yeah, not gonna happen. You see Toothless, Stardust and Nightrainbow ain't going anywhere and neither is Stormfly. Now!" yelled Hiccup and all hell broke loose.
Toothless aimed at the ice above Eret to come crashing down while Stardust used her lightning to burn the rest of the top of the fort while Nightrainbow burned the bottom at the same time causing it all to come cave in on itself.
Una used her ocarina to paralyze the Trappers so Boden could zap all their weapons and tools with his sword while Hiccup cut Stormfly loose and they then took off.
They then heard screaming as they left from Eret. "You'll never hold onto those dragons you hear me! Drago Bludvist is come for all them! Hear me! He's coming for you all!"
And with a quick glance at each other it was time to step it up and get home to warn everyone about this.
Though even as they flew faster than the wind back home they still felt that strange summoning call. Who was calling to them and why? What was going on? And did it have to do with their destiny and telling them who they truly where?
