A/N: I am soooooooooooooooo sorry! My computer died, then I got surgery on my hands. After that, I got my computer- just in time for hand surgery part two. Once I was fine, it was time for school. So basically, the universe was against this chapter. After this story is finished, I will not be immediately starting on the Riders of Berk thing. Instead I will be working on another story on Wattpad. My username is PhoenixSong16 if anyone wants to check it out. The series will (hopefully) be a trilogy. The first book is called The Technicolor Trilogy: Book One- In the Everglow. The reason it will not be on this platform is because it is entirely stand-alone. Every plot, character, and setting are mine! Que evil laughing! It will feature a girl named Levana Grace Valentine. She will be a hero with surprising abilities. This is NOT a Marvel fanfic. It is entirely my own. Anyway, please check it out. That would mean so much. 3 SuperFangirl16
WARNING: Character Death
Everyone was sitting on the back of their dragons, with varying degrees of skill. Astrid was perfectly balanced, while Snotlout had a death grip on Hookfang. The twins were trying to push each other off the dragon, but considering neither of them had succeeded yet, they would do fine. Fishlegs was leaning a bit to the left.
"Okay everyone! Time to go. Ruff, Tuff, stop trying to push each other off the dragon. Snotlout, you'll do fine. Fish straighten up." I looked around. Hiccup still had no mount. "Hiccup, you should ride with Astrid." Neither one of them batted an eye at the suggestion, but my inner matchmaker cackled maniacally as Astrid wrapped her arms around Hiccup's waist. I loved Hiccup and Astrid… Hiccstid! I climbed on Storm and took off, the caravan of dragons behind me.
"Hiccup!" I shouted at him. "Lead the way. I'll improve on the other's skills, so they don't fall of mid-battle." He nodded at me, and I began correcting everyone as we flew on our way.
~oOo~
I looked at Hiccup, the latter's eyes bright. On the back of the newly named Stormfly, Hiccup shouted at me. "Almost there, right?" I nodded. We came out, looking at the Red Death from above. Everyone gasped, even Hiccup and Astrid, who had seen the dragon (or at least its head) before. I noticed two idiots trying to attack the massive monster head on.
I shouted, "When I give my signal, fire at the back of the head." We dove in formation towards the beast. "NOW!" I yelled, and six different dragon fires lit up the back of the head. We did a lap around the dragon, Fishlegs breaking it down. I will admit, I'd never seen one so alive. It was bloody terrifying. The breakdown complete Hiccup shouted jobs at everyone.
"Hiccup!" I shouted. "The plan! I'll start do a quick survey." He nodded at me, then flew off to find Toothless. I circled the beach, noting the sea stacks, and the mist. Then I started climbing. Up through the layer of thick, dark clouds. In the sky was a small cloudless pocket, which should get us a few clear shots. I dove back down, just in time to see Fishlegs and Astrid go down. I flew over to Hiccup.
"Operation Dynamo is go." (Twenty points and a digital cookie to whoever gets the reference!)
Hiccup and I dove through the sea stacks, hoping our agility would give us some aid. The monster, however was not cooperative in our mission to kill it, and just broke through the sea stacks. "Hiccup, there's a space in the clouds above us. Time to disappear!" the Lightning Fyre and the Night Fury swooped up into the sky. There were gasps from below as we disappeared into the cloud layer. The moment we entered the clear area, we split off, the massive dragon behind us barely eating Storm's tail off. I heard a whistle, then saw a flash. The first blast was fired. We turned and dived, hitting the Red Death right on the wing joint. It roared in pain as we darted around, practically laughing with adrenaline.
The tail swung around I dodged, about to call an insult, but I heard a cry behind me. Hiccup and Toothless were knocked out of the sky. The last thing I heard before they plunged through the clouds was my brother's voice. "Defeat it! For me."
I swung around to face the beast and hit it underneath the jaw. With a huge cry, the massive dragon whipped itself around, spraying fire in an omnidirectional blast of scalding hot painful death (Twenty points and another digital cookie for that reference.)
I dodged the flames, then dove to the ground. Stupidly, the Red Death followed me to the ground. From behind, I could hear the beast drawing breath. We spun around, blasting the flammable gas in its mouth, and starting a fire in its belly. I dodged out of the way of the now free-falling dragon, flying high above the inferno. I swooped down to the ground where the mangled body of the Night Fury and my brother lay. A sob escaped my mouth. The dragon was dead. But at what cost?
A/N: wow. I cried writing that chapter, and I knew what was going to happen. I may have been slightly misleading on where the story was going to go. Sorry. I've never killed a character before. This is new. How'd I do? Like I said, sorry for pulling a Rick Riordan. *Glaring*
ChaMeleonNinja812: You wanted it changed up? She wasn't affecting the story all that much, because no one knew she existed, but now she will have a bit more of a role. Also, about Phoe's mother. It will come up later in RoB, but she was abusive, as much as Phoe tries to deny it to herself. That abusiveness will come up later, as a major plot point
There should be one more chapter. Don't worry, no one else dies. Probably. And I'll be here. Maybe ;).
