Chapter ten folks, enjoy :)
The dragon riders and the others tried to make sure not to harm the dragons but be able to enter at the same time. "Easy, we're friends!" Astrid cooed but the snowdragons just ignored her and began to fire frost everywhere.
"Woah, if I didn't know better, I think that is a lot like a nightfury, unless...Oh Thor, Hiccup made these dragons!" Fishlegs gasped and then the dragons used their tails to swipe everyone to the side.
The Berserker guards were getting up, seeing passed the dragons, they saw Hiccup shut the entrance doors shut in panic. "The heir!" Both guards shouted, then got up with their crossbows and ran to the entrance.
"Wait, stop!" Astrid shouted to them, but she along with everyone else was easily distracted by the dragons.
The guards ran up the stairs while one shouted," Come on!" As they were approaching the entrance, Hiccup ran up the stair in fear and panic. He only stopped for a few seconds but only to see and hear both Berserkers enter before he continued to run up to the tower.
The Berserkers looked around before the looked up and saw Hiccup run for his life as they shouted," Up there!" "Come on!" Then, they ran up after him, not caring about the danger they were in.
Hiccup soon was at the very top, but only to gasp in fear, knowing that he was trapped once a voice stated, "We got him now."
Hiccup felt like a trap deer in front of wolves, as he backed away from the armed guards who were ready to shot their first arrows, Hiccup pleaded," No..Please..."
Without hesitation, the guard at the right shot first, Hiccup's arms were over him until he show that his ice magic stopped the arrow from shooting him, he gasped but then he saw them go around him.
"Turn around, close him..."
Hiccup had no choice but to use his powers forcefully while pleading," Stay away!" Then ice spikes quickly formed, almost about to kill them but the leaped away warning one another," Watch out!" "Fire! Fire!"
Hiccup turned and then used more of his powers to keep them away, forming more ice around the room then ever.
"GET HIM!"
Back outside, Astrid saw the Berseker guards go in, armed, so with Stormfly's help, she managed to dodge the snowdragons swipe before telling Stormfly," Go help the others, I'm going to help Hiccup!" Then she raced in, ignoring Freya's commands.
Astrid ran up and saw the guards attacking him," HICCUP! LEAVE HIM ALONE!" She tried to stop them but one of the guards grabbed her, with an arrow facing her chest.
Hiccup, infuriated of what they were going to Astrid, used all the powers he could muster and shouted in anger,"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Then, with the use of his magic, he slid the guard off of Astrid, and went sliding to the wall.
Back outside, Freya was dodging the dragon's frost until she grabbed a torch, lit it up and swung it around in front of the snowdragons. The dragons screeched in fear and then quickly flew off but before they could, Freya threw the fire on them and while they were melting (except for Firefrost who managed to escape just in time) she along with everyone else went inside.
Well, after the dragons and their riders recovered from being upset seeing dragons die in battle because of Freya.
In the castle, Hiccup was yet again surrounded by one Berserker and the other who managed to grab ahold of Astrid again. "Let her go!" Hiccup yelled and then shot his ice everywhere. Then he shot ice around the guard who was behind him with frozen spikes trapping him into the wall, stretching up to his face.
He looked behind him, seeing the guard who is holding onto Astrid, then he shot the crossbow off his hands, then made him slide down, causing Astrid to fall down and slide to the wall safely.
The guard tried to run away but Hiccup blocked both sides with ice, then one lager ice block coming closer to the Berserker, causing him to slide back as he tried to stop it, Hiccup put more force into it.
The guard then was pushed through the window as the ice continued to push him slowly, with a deep deadly cliff behind him.
Freya and the others then came running in but stopped only to see Astrid getting up, one guard pinned to the wall and Hiccup trying to finish off the other. The dragon riders couldn't believe what they were witnessing, but it was happening. The dragons knew for a fact what was the cause of this, but since they couldn't talk, they were left leaving their riders jump to conclusions.
"HICCUP!" "Don't be the monster they fear you are!" Freya pleaded, Hiccup stopped doing what he was doing, realizing what he was about to commit. He looked at Freya, then at the others in shock as he breathed slowly.
The Berserker pinned to the wall, struggled to raise his arm up, and when he did, he aimed the arrow right at Hiccup, who was starting to stand up straight.
Astrid saw this as she yelled,"HICCUP LOOK OUT!" Freya must have saw the guard ready to shot that she ran and made the guard shot up to the ice chandelier with the nightfury mark. It fell and Hiccup looked up and began to run out of the way, but as he ran, he tripped and fell along with the chandelier.
Then everything was black and all Hiccup could hear was eerie ringing.
His forest green eyes began to slowly open as he began to regain consciousness, realizing he laying down somewhere with a coal black blanket over him. Once his vision became clearer, he notice the jail door.
He then looked up and saw one window with gray light shining through it, Hiccup got out of bed, realizing he was in prison, but he then felt his hands being pulled down, and the sound of chains.
Hiccup looked down at his hands only to see that they were both covered in cylinder shaped metal, then struggled to look out the window, seeing the ocean completely covered in ice and the village was also covered in snow and ice,"Oh no. What have I done?"
He heard the door open, revealing to be Freya, coming in with a sad smile then Hiccup demanded," Why did you bring me here?!"
"I just couldn't let them kill you Hiccup."
"But I'm a danger to Berk. Get my father."
"Your father has not returned."
Hiccup gasped and looked out the window, trying not to think what he had done to his father.
"If you could stop this winter Hiccup, bring back summer. Please."
Hiccup looked up to Freya, with his emerald eyes glistening with water as he cried," Don't you see, I can't." "Freya, you have to tell them to let me go!"
"I will do what I can Hiccup," and with that Freya got up and left the prison, leaving Hiccup alone. He heard the door slam, until he felt a familiar strength of magic from his hands as frost began to cover the metal.
"I-I-I hope...Hic-c-cup could s-s-stop t-this winter, I'm freezing," Fishlegs complained as he shivered.
"Never mind that, Hiccup almost got Astrid hurt and almost killed two berserkers!" Snotlout complained until Astrid punched him on the gut shouting,
"HICCUP DIDN'T HURT ME, HE WAS ONLY PROTECTING ME SINCE ONE OF THOSE GUARDS COULD HAVE KILLED ME SINCE THEY HAD AHOLD OF ME!" "Are you now turning your backs on Hiccup?"
"I know I'm not Astrid, like you and Stoick said, he was scared, he looked pretty scared when he was surrounded by all of us," Fishlegs pointed out.
"We're not, Hiccup has way to cool powers, I wonder if he could help us cause maximum destruction," the twins answered.
"Alright Astrid, you win. I for one believe that our old pal Hiccup is not a monster," Snotlout agreed until they heard the prison door slam and out came Freya.
"Sorry, but Hiccup told me that he can't stop this winter, I'll talk to the council and see what they say."
"But Freya, Hiccup didn't mean too, he was only protecting me..."
"Enough Astrid, once this is over, you'll thank me soon enough." With that Freya left to the Great Hall, leaving the whole gang confused.
"Ah guys, what did Freya mean by that," Tuff questioned.
"Okay Astrid, now I totally see why Hiccup didn't approve the marriage."
"Finally the Jorganson boy agrees, anyway we have to warn the council, I'm having a feeling that Freya is up to something,but first we have to find Stoick," Astrid commanded, but before they could call their dragons, they were ambushed and captured by some Lost Tribe guard grabbed them and locked them in the chief's house, muzzeled and tied up.
Freya, Astrid thought angrily, Oh she's up to something alright
