Even though I didn't get any reviews, I just wanted to put out a couple of chapters before seeing if I had enough people interested for this story for me to go all out and go to something like 423K words.


Thuggory's POV

Sure I was upset that Aurora couldn't come to our wedding, but I understand she wasn't ready to see her father or brother again. I called Derrek, my Thunder Drum, and went back to my home.


The next day, our wedding, the Uglythugs showed up in three ships, the Bogs, two, with the chiefs family and two other women, the other allied tribes such as the Beserkers came in moderate longboats. The Hooligains, however, came in fifteen large longboats. I went over to talk to Stoick, who said the reason for so many longboats was because afterwords they where going on another nest hunt.

"The are going to WHAT!?"

"They are going on a hunt for the nest" I repeated to Heather as I told the news "They heading to the nest now, and I have a feeling hat this time they are actually going to find it..."

"...and get themselves slaughtered"

Those who rode dragons knew what was in the bottom of that nest. The Hairy Hooligans had no idea that anyone even RODE dragons.

"But before we go get Scarlet, tell me why she wasn't at our wedding"

"Ok, here's the thing, her name isn't really Scarlet, it's Aurora, and that was her old clan and tribe, the chief is her dad"

"That actually explains why she always refuses to go to the Thing with me"

"Exactly. Let's go get her and get to the nest hopefully before Stoick dose anything stupid"


Aurora's POV

"Absolutely not!" Is what I yelled at Thuggory when he told me to come with him, Heather and Camicazi.

"Come on, Aurora, we need to save them before they get themselves slaughtered"

"Fine, but you so owe me for this one"


Astrid's POV

When they cracked that mountain open, all Hel broke loose, all the dragons left. We thought it had been a rather simply easy victory. But then that thing came out of the mountain. We screamed, and before we could do anything, it had already burned most of our fleet.

But then all of a sudden, out of now where, something attacked that dragon. I looked up to see what it was, and by Thor it was a dragon with a rider on it. Next to the Nadder came a Thunder Drum, also with a rider. I suddenly recognized them as Thuggory and his wife.

"NIGHT FURY!"

"GET DOWN!"

Me Stoick, Hiccup and Gobber were the only ones to remain standing. It was indeed a Night Fury, but not the one that tormented our island, this one was white.

"By Thor Stoick, the Night Fury has a rider too" commented Gobber.

The one on the Night Fury seemed to be leading the others, as a Change Wing also came along, but with what seemed to be Cami on it.

"Thuggory, get behind the crest and have Derrek fire noise to keep it confused, Cami, attack the left wing, Heather the Right, I'll attack the legs and the eyes. When I give the signal, GET OUT OF THERE we can't afford for someone to be stupid and try to be a hero"

"Wait!" I yelled after the woman on the Night Fury "We want to help"

The rider on the Night Fury turned, and after a sigh said "Fire whatever weapons you have left, try to aim at it's face, and for Thor's sake do not bring attention to yourselves!" That last part was hissed, and it sounded mad. None of us really had a choice but to listen since none of us had a better idea.

After about ten minutes, it seemed the queen had enough and was badly injured before retreating it sprayed a mist onto our fleet and at that the woman called the riders back, just in case.


Aurora's POV

I tried to keep the fight as short as possible, but I knew we would have to help the tribe get back home.

"Thuggory, stay here and if that beast comes back have Derrek yell as loud as possible, but once they couldn't see us anymore, they would retreat and join us. Sunset was only able to hold one extra person, because of the rigging for her tail fin. Of all people, it had to be Astrid of all people to join me.

But I was at least lucky that I was going to be flying and didn't have to take my helm off.

"Why did you help us?" She asked after about 5 minutes of flying

"Because I couldn't let you all be slaughtered miss" I was so scared of giving myself away that practically hissed at her

Evasive.

"Why are you riding a demon?"

"Sunset isn't a demon, she's my best friend, and we have been for about 15 years now. But miss, please I'm trying to fly here"

::You know as well as I do you can talk while flying, but I'm warning you here and now if anyone on those ships tries to harm you, they will die, and don't give us away::

"Don't you even start" I replied, forgetting about Astrid, who was now looking at me, as if I were crazy for talking to a dragon.

"Stop calling me miss, Astrid or Hofferson will do"

"Alright, Hofferson then"


Astrid's POV

There was something up with this woman

"You know my clan name, so you might as well return the favor"

"I...Don't have... a clan name"

Oh great, I made her admit she has no clan and shamed her in the process. Way to bring her to the Hooligans side.

"So you weren't born into a clan then?"

"No, I.. I Just... wasn't needed there"

There was something familiar about this woman, but I just can't put my finger on it.

"If you don't have a clan name, then what do I call you?"

"Scarlet. I now want an answer out of you. Are you married or not? Because you rejected to be called 'miss'"

"I'm not married, but I'm Betrothed to the chiefs son, Hiccup"

"Ah" I could tell the dragon was cringing under me and the strangers voice was tight.

"I'm not sure if you would have anything to say about this, but do you know where Hiccup's twin, Aurora, is? She's been missing for 18 years now"

The dragon was then more cringed from that question. I think Scarlet flinched at hearing Aurora's name

"Yes, I've seen her from time to time. The matching set of axes for Thuggory and Heather's wedding were from her"

"Well, it's good to know she's alive. Hiccup was hyperventilating for about a hour and a half when she went missing. Though he was only a year old, he was smart enough to realize his twin was missing"


Aurora's POV

We didn't talk after that, the only other times we talked was her trying to get me to tell were I was from.

When we were almost back I told Stoick to dock somewhere far away enough from the village to be damaged, but close enough for ambush after explaining that the queen marked them with a scent so she could find them later.

"We could land at Black Heart Bay, but why should we take orders from you?" asked Stoick not sure if he should trust me or not.

Cami then suddenly appeared on her Change Wing, who was hidden at the head of his ship who piped up.

"Well, if you haven't noticed, me, Thuggory, and Heather are the heirs of your allied tribes, and we trust Scarlet. Second, if you aren't blind, you would have seen that she could have easily killed you all by now, as we are on the backs of dragons. Finally, we are the ones you saved your idiotic butts back there, do you have a better idea?"

Stoick didn't have anything to say back to the little Bog heir.

"Thank you, Cami. Now, You will land at Black Heart Bay, and before you head back to the village, everyone will bathe, as to not bring the queen to the village. Any Questions?"

"Who are you?" asked someone from the back of the crowd.

"..."

It took me a moment to answer that.

"Friends"

I then took Astrid to Black Heart Bay, and then me and Sunset went flying, telling her if anyone asked, we would be back soon.


There. Was that one any better? Hopefully another chapter will be posted today.
