Hey Guys, hop e you enjoy this chapter. BTW if you don't know, I try to post every Saturday.

To GeekyGlamour who wrote "

I like How you wrote Merida. Still a little rebellious but more mature." She just kinda came out like that, I haven't seen the movie for a while so she kinda came out like that. But I am very proud of how she came out.

Now on with the show!

The Snow Queen's heels clicked against her frozen palace floor as she walked towards her throne. Hoarfrost, the dragon that the Dark Prince Pitch had given her slept beside her throne, her breath appearing as mist and created a pattern on the floor. The Snow Queen sat down, eying her baby dragon, which had grown quite a bit with the help of her powers and was now the size of a full-grown dog.

Sighing the Snow Queen leaned back into her throne, relaxing. It was rare that she could relax as much as she was, as she had to attend to her world's harsh winter. The corner of her mouth twitched up slightly as she corrected herself. She made it hasher.

She frowned, ice splitting around her as she felt a presence on her ice. Standing she stormed towards the intruder, a blizzard swirling around her. She blasted the door open and stormed into her Dinning Hall, which she hardly used and came up short, Pitch's feet on her table.

"Surprised." He smiled at her as he sipped his glass of red wine. He glanced down at it, sniffing it. "I found this bottle in a forgeten corner of a inn in this world. The Snuggle Duckling I believe it was called. The thugs there are near impossible to be scared, too drunk. Especially that old man." Pitch shuddered as he took another sip. "Need more wine to drown the image of that man in wings. Disgusting."

"I thought you said you'll be gone for three days." The Queen stepped towards him, her fingers tracing her table, new patterns twirling across the table.

Pitch smile faded slightly, annoyed. "Yes, well, I saw something. In the last world…"

"The one with your bear?"

"Yes, that one." Pitch nodded. "I saw a spirit, or servant of a spirit I think. They led me to a spot, where I watched Jack Frost appear."

The Snow Queen blue eyes sparkled with interest. "The Winter Spirit from your world?"

"Yes, and with him… the boy. Hiccup Haddock and his Night Fury."

"A Night Fury…? Are they going to be a concern?"

"Jack will, but the human I'm unsure. He somehow found a way to wound me when I first faced him."

"Ahh, so he's the one."

Pitch glared up at her, daring her to go on. "Yes, the one. I don't know why Jack allowed him to come along, he's human. And a kid. I suppose the kid pulled the same trick those kids pulled when I nearly wiped the Guardians out last time. 'And who will protect you?' 'I will,' gah!" Pitch rolled his eyes, disgusted. "How disgustingly heroic."

"So, lets deal with them."

"And how would you suppose we do that, Snow Queen." Pitch glared at her, annoyed. The Queen paused, before a slow smile crossed her face.

"Take me to the other world, and call your bear to us. I got an idea."

Pitch eyebrow rose, before placing his glass onto the table and rose from his chair, stepping next to the Snow Queen. "As you wish, Snow Queen." He grabbed her wrist and pulled his World Jumper out under his cloak. The Queen watching her world vanishing and then she reappeared in a cluster of woods, moonlight slipping through the leaves above them. Pitch stepped forward, letting the Snow Queen go as his called his bear.

"Tell me, my dark prince… why did you chose a bear for this world?" She asked as Pitch paused, listening.

"I didn't. Before I came, a bear once roamed these woods and strike fear into everyone who saw him. Recently the bear was killed, but the fear of him remained, in stories and memories of those who saw him. I pulled on those memories, the fear from the stories and put those fears and memories into my nightmare sand, creating a body for them. I didn't create it, the bear existed before I came."

"But…?" The Snow Queen smiled softly, knowing what was coming.

"The bear is simply that, memories and fears. It can't-"

"It can't live." The Snow Queen smiled, nodding. Pitch frowned a little at her, puzzled.

The two looked ahead as a groan was heard, and the Snow Queen eyebrows rose in surprised, and Pitch smiled at it, seeing such an emotion was rare. The Queen expression moulded into awe as she studied the large form, and stepping towards it. It eyed her though its dark eyes, before huffing and stared at Pitch. The Queen smiled, feeling it's sandy fury under her fingertips.

"Impressive." She stepped back, studying it.

Pitch stepped forward, eyeing her. "Why did you want to come here? To see him?"

The Snow Queen turned to him, her smile dropping. "He has no life, only memories. But memories can shape a life."

"Don't go all mushy on me and lecture me about life." Pitch rolled his eyes, falling back on to the side of a tree. "What's your point?"

"What if I tell you instead, of just memories, it can create memories of its own."

"That's called life, only an old spirit can create life."

"Or an ancient force, like winter." The Snow Queen turned her back to him as he straightened.

She held her hand out, her palm against the bears snout. The bear groaned, feeling the cold seeping through him. She watched its black eyes turned a tone lighter, and she could feel it's memories, the beginning of its life, before it turned into the bear that held the man and its dark memories of after, and then of a girl with wild red hair. She lifted her hand slightly, her hand hovering above his snout. Slowly she clenched her hand, the bear groaning until she swiped her hand away, the bear dropping to the ground silent.

"He's finished." She said, stepping back. Pitch stepped beside her, watching the bear on the ground.

"I didn't know you could do that."

The Snow Queen stared down at the bear, her face emotionless. "I don't make snowguard's when I could deal with an issue personally."

The bear growled slowly, his paw moving under him and he pushed himself up slowly. His eyes looked up at the two spirit's, before bowing his head towards the Queen. The Queen smiled and Pitch moved to him, his hand patting his fur.

"Amazing, he's still made of nightmare sand, but he's not a part of me. He's alive…" He chuckled, scratching his fur.

"I can feel his emotions, his anger."

"I felt that too. While I was touching him, I saw someone." The Queen said, curious.

Pitch frowned, stepping back as the bear turned towards the large lake, sniffing the air. "He's hunting something. I didn't tell him to hunt." He glared at the Queen. "What have you done?"
"He has his own memories, remember." The Snow Queen stepped behind him, watching the bear curiously. "His own, desires. His own motives. Perhaps, he remembers something from before, and-"

The bear growled, causing the two to freeze. "Mer…Merida…DunBroch…"

Merida's eyes widened as the guard shouted. "A dragon…" She whispered, shocked.

Elinor scoffed as Fergus stared at the guard. "A dragon? Guard, I believe your drunk as dragons are a myth, a story. They're not real." Elinor waved the guard away and pulled her seat back but Fergus quickly stood back up.

"Den there's nothing to be worry about, me love. Anyway, if it's a bear, I'll leave it to the men. Can't have them getting fat because I'm killing all the bears." Fergus laughed, his men laughing with him.

Fergus stood up, more careful to not to annoy his wounds. "He who kills the bear will be reward with a mug of me best ale from me cellar!" He shouted to the men in the Great Hall, who cheered at his proposal. Merida grinned, knowing he would give them the smallest cups in DunBroch. Fergus slipped out of his chair and marched off through the main doors, men from his guard ran after him.

"Gather up yer gear men, we'll leave when I'm saddled!" Fergus shouted behind him, and men rushed past him to get ready.

Merida sighed, turning back to the two boys. "Well, we're going to have a moor quiet eve…" Her voice faded slowly as she noticed Hiccup and Jack was gone. Blinking she glanced down at her plate, Baby Tooth was also gone. Standing, she glanced about for them.

"Where did ya go…?" She froze as she saw Baby Tooth hovering over a bowl of cookies, stealing one out of the bowl before racing after the men, eating on the fly. Frowning, Merida slipped out around her chair and ran after her.

"Princess Merida?" Merida skidded to a stop and turned to find a servant girl, holding her bow and arrows. "Please, excuse me princess… but ah guessed that ya would go after them so ah sneaked into yer room to get ya this."

"I'm, I'm not…" Merida started frowning and then quickly grabbed her bow and arrows, setting the quiver around her hip. "Thanks Fiona. I ow ya one!" She waved at her as she skipped down the hall backwards before turning back around and charged till she got to the doors.

Pushing it open slowly, Merida peeked outside. The courtyard was in a frenzy, men gathering their spears and weapons, lighting touches to see with. Her dad stood patiently beside his horse, who stamped the ground impatiently. Her blue eyes narrowed as she saw Baby Tooth flying past a burning torch, rushing towards the gates.

Slipping past the door she whistled, Angus's head perking up from the stable. Angus sprinted to her, naying at the excitement.

"No Angus, we're not hunting for this bear or whatever it is. We're fallowing Baby Tooth. I think there's something wrong." Angus shook his head and turned around and allowed her to clamber up his side. "Let's go."

Merida charged past her father, who swirled around after her, his shouts ignored. Racing past the gate Merida fallowed the path down the road. Ahead, Merida saw Jack and Hiccup sprinting off the road and into the woods.

"Where are you two going?" Merida muttered, frowning.

Pulling Angus off the road she fallowed the path the two boys made before sliding off Angus's back, patting him on the neck. "Go back home, Angus, I'll be fine." Angus shook his head, glancing at the wood's edge, causing Merida to laugh. "Ya're such a wuss." Merida patted him one more time before slipping past the trees, Angus naying behind her.

Merida squinted in the poor light, the night sky covered with clouds. Pausing under a tree Merida whispered urgently.

"Jack? Hiccup? Where are you-" Merida froze as she saw a soft blue light in the corner of her eye. Looking around Merida swallowed and blinked. The Wisp moaned, hovering over a bush as it waved at her.

Straightening, Merida stepped towards it. Inhaling Merida stopped in front of it, the two watching the other.

"Hello again." Merida said tenderly, and the Wisp moaned back. "Been a while since I seen one of you guys. Since I turned me mum into a bear." The Wisp nodded, moaning. Merida looked around her, the trees seemed closer and tight.

"Can ya help me find Jack and Hiccup?" She asked, looking back down at the soft flame. The Wisp vanish, and reappeared to her side. Smiling Merida fallowed it, remembering her fist time she saw them in the woods as a baby.

The sound of water flowing grew louder and then the Wisp stopped, hovering beside a thick bush. Glancing at it before Merida walked past it and parted the bush apart. Right in front of her, Hiccup and Jack stood, watching the river in front of them. Frowning, Merida pushed the bushes apart and marched towards them.

"Deare ya are. What's de big idea of dumping me behind?" She asked angrily, causing the two boys to jump. Jack quickly lifted his staff towards her, Hiccup also raising his shield threatenly glaring towards Merida but slowly dropped it as they noticed her wild hair.

"Merida? What are you doing here? Were you fallowed?" Hiccup asked looking past her, as Jack dropped his staff.

Merida eyebrow rose, and dropped her arm down with her bow loosely grasped. "Why?"

"Um, because ugh…" Jack and Hiccup shared a looked, Jack ruffling his hair nervously.

"Start talking, now…" Merida rolled her eyes, her fists on her hips.

"Um… we kinda don't have too talk." Hiccup chuckled, scratching his neck. She raised her eyebrow again and opened her mouth as the clouds parted, letting some moonlight to fliter down on them. Her eyes were immediately drawn to the river behind the two boys, where a dark body moved towards them, two big round green eyes watching them.

Gasping, Merida lifted her bow and attached an arrow in one fluid movement. "Behind ya!" The big green eyes snapped into narrow slits, staring straight at Merida before launching towards Merida with a roar. Stumbling back, she let the arrow go which bounced off the beast's chest harmlessly. It pushed Hiccup and Jack to back and landed onto of Merida. Squealing Merida scrambled back on her back as the beast claws dug into the dirt as it paced over top of her.

"Woah Toothless! Its ok, she wasn't aiming at me!" Hiccup rushed in front of the beast, who stopped and looked up at Hiccup. It's slit eyes softened and dissolved into big round eyes, and it warbled at Hiccup. "She's just frightened of you. That's all bud." Hiccup held its head in his hands, it nudging him softly before sitting back letting Merida back onto her feet. Merida stumbled further back away, staring at it.

"What… Da 'ell!? Is that!" She screamed, causing the beast to straightened back, clearly offended.

"Merida, this is Toothless. He's my dragon. Toothless, Princess Merida of DunBrouch." Hiccup gestured between the two, Toothless cooed towards her. Merida stared at it.

"Ya have a dragon!?"

"Everyone has a dragon back home." Hiccup smiled softly, and Merida glared at him.

"Ya have a dragon! And ya think it's normal for a princess to know about dat!?"

Hiccup huffed, shrugging undecidedly. "Yeah ok, sorry. Could've introduced you two a little bit better."

"Is he… controlled?" Merida asked wearily. Hiccup jolted slightly at that idea.

"Controlled? He's a friend, I don't control him. I trust him with my life." Hiccup said, stepping between the two. "You can trust him, Merida… He didn't mean to frighten you. He thought you were aiming your bow at me. He's really protective." Hiccup smiled.

"Will… will he bite if I get close to him?" Merida asked, stepping softly towards Toothless.

Toothless and Hiccup faces dropped, staring at her. "He might if you keep thinking he's mindless. It's about trust Merida. Trust him, and he will trust you. Hold your hand out to him, and slowly walk towards him." Hiccup instructed her.

"Slowly?" She asked hesiently as she fallowed his instructions. "Why?"

"Dragons a prideful sometimes and need to be shown respect when you first met them. After you earned a dragon trust though, you can be pretty much tackle them to the ground." Hiccup smiled as he gently grabbed Merida's hand and slowly guided it to Toothless, who sniffed it softly before leaning forward. Merida hand jolted back, Toothless head inches from her hand, his eyes shut as he waited for her hand.

Hiccup watched her, smiling softly. "He decided to trust you… will you?" Merida hand twitched, millions of thoughts running through her mind. Baby Tooth appeared in front of her, smiling at her before fluttering down beside Toothless's head, stocking his scales beneath his eye. Inhaling, Merida dropped her hand on his nose, feeling Toothless's scales under her hand.

She stared at Toothless, before she found herself starring at the green eyes. He cooed, nudging her hand further up his head. Slowly she started to scratch, the dragon practically melted in her hands.

A smile started to grow on her face as she stepped to its side, one hand scratching it's head while the other fallowed his body and then onto its wing. "He's incredible." Her hand slipped onto his saddle and she starred up at Hiccup. "Ya ride him!?"

"Yeah, of course!" Hiccup chuckled. "Flying is amazing. You find out what's it's like to be a dragon."

Merida smiled, her hand going back up Toothless's wing joint. "Amazing..." She whispered as Toothless tilted his head to look at her. Her face drained for a second, her hands trembling. "Sorry, I shot at ya, Toothless." Toothless shock his head, warbling and nudged her gently. She giggled slightly.

"I didn't hurt him did I?" Merida asked Hiccup, who grinned.

"Your arrow didn't do anything to him. You need a more powerful bow to do that. His scales are fire proof and are incredible tough." He shrugged, grinning at Toothless.

Merida glanced down at the flight-gear around Toothless's side and then fallowed it up to his tail.

"What happened here?" She lift Toothless's tail up gently, the dragon turned his head towards her, watching her curiously with his head tilted.

"Yeah, I shot him down. You see, on my village, we weren't friends with them as we are now. Toothless here, is actually a Night Fury, the unholy offspring of lightning and death itself."

"Guessing ya were terrified of him." Merida guessed, stepping away from his tail and back to his side.

"Yeah, but when saw him, you could say I saw myself. I was scared of him, and yet, even being a dragon, he was scared of me. I freed him, but he couldn't fly because I hurt his tail-wing when I shot him down. So, during my dragon-training I made him a new tail, one I could help him control. From there, I save my village from a dragon queen, who was controlling the dragons and forcing them to feed her, and brought peace between us two. Dragons now live among us, peacefully and we made some great friends." Hiccup smiled as Toothless bounded beside and rubbed himself against him gently as he spoke. He chuckled, scratching him viciously sending Toothless rolling on the ground with Hiccup on top.

Merida smiled softly, and glanced up as Baby Tooth flutter up beside her face and rubbed her against Merida's cheek. Merida touched her back lightly, careful not to touch her wings, and grinned.

A bark cause Merida to spin around to stare into the woods, Jack standing to attention as well. Jack glanced towards her, and Merida nodded.

"Me dad is hunting Toothless. Why did peek out of the woods?"

Hiccup paused scratching to shrug. "Dunno, probably wanted to know where I was… or where the fish are."

"Aren't ya worried dat me dad will find him?" Merida asked, her eyes starting to flame up. Hiccup smiled.

"And what? Are they equipped to take down a dragon?"

Merida paused, shrugging. "Don't know. But wouldn't it be safer if-"

Jack interrupted, grinning. "Merida, he's a dragon. Nothing can hurt him."

"Jack." Hiccup stared at him before nodding towards Merida. "Your right Merida, it would be safer for both parties if they don't find Toothless. I'll fly him off somewhere safe till we know what Jack and I are going to do."

"Ok, I'll try to delay them to give ya some more time." Merida nodded, stepping towards the woods. "Would ya like to give me a hand Jack, and tell me where me father is by the air?"

"I don't have a choice, do I?" Jack said behind her, and Merida could just hear the grin on his face. "But why not together, princess?" Merida screeched as Jack picked her up around the waist and she quickly put him in a neck-lock causing him to choke.

"Put me down Frost-y!"

Ta-da! Hope you enjoyed it. What's happening with the bear! I wasn't really planned him to come out like this, but he just spoke. What do you think is happening? Anything you think I could add? Improve?
Anyway, PLEASE review bellow. Hearing from you really makes my day, and I love hearing your thoughts. I'm not planning on giving this story up anytime soon, unless I need a break to write my other stories, which I will inform you before disappearing into Cyberspace. :)
