Berk, the Barbaric Archipelago, Planet Earth.
Somewhere during the Viking Age.

After Leonardo had decided to travel to Berk via dragonback, Hiccup soon had to figure out which dragon for the visitors to travel on.

So he decided to have Mikey and Master Splinter travel on Barf and Belch with Ruffnut and Tuffnut, Raph and Casey travel on Hookfang with Snotlout, Donnie travel on Meatlug with Fishlegs, April travel on Stormfly with Astrid (apparently, Astrid insisted after witnessing April's scowl at Snotlout's flirtatious attempts to get her to ride with him) and Leo travel on Toothless with Hiccup.

The Turtles' first experience of flying with dragon riders, well, Hiccup found it a bit interesting. They were no strangers to flying apparently, but not on a dragon.
Individually, their reactions were interesting. Mikey yelled out a very joyous call of "BOOYAKASHA!" (which Leo noticed that the other Vikings looked really confused at), whilst Splinter seemed to calmly take the whole experience in stride. Casey made a joyous "WHOA! THIS IS SO RAD!" whilst Raph, Donnie and April's yelps of whoa were more of surprise than anything else.

Leo couldn't help but yelp in surprise when the dragon that Hiccup rode, Toothless, made a sudden assent.
The whole motion acting on his insides, made him distinctively uncomfortable, and Leo actually thought it was going to make him throw up.
But luckily, it did not come to that, and thus began the journey to Berk.

The trip was quite something, as the Turtles, Splinter, April and Casey took in all the spectacular sights from dragonback.
Despite Raph's look of unease as he flew on the dragon, Leo could have sworn he was as awestruck by the sights as the rest of them were, and saw him mouth under his breath "This is awesome".
As Donnie shouted to April, "Great, isn't it, April"?, the girl in question, who was looking upon the clouds in wonder, responded to Donnie's question as she looked upon the sunset in the distance with an awestruck "It's beautiful..."

And thus, came night-time, and the dragons glided under the night sky, with all the dragon riders having all sorts of questions about these strange visitors that they would have liked answering, but had to wait until they reached Berk (not that it stopped Ruff and Tuff from trying, until Hiccup made it clear that now wasn't a good time to ask questions at the moment).

The visitors didn't sleep, understandably considering that this was their first ride on a dragon, and dragon riding didn't exactly hold many opportunities for passengers to take a few moments of hours or minutes to sleep. But at least Mikey wasn't doing much, for there was quite a chill in the air that made him shiver and hold on for dear life.

They stayed awake to see sunrise, and then, lay eyes on Berk.


The dragon riders, with their passengers, landed their dragons at the under construction Dragon Hangar, upon Hiccup's insistence, after Leo stated that all they just wanted to do, was stay around long enough to figure out what to do next and they'd take their leave.

As the dragons made a smooth landing, with no complaints from the passengers, the dragon riders allowed their passengers to get off, before Hiccup stepped in and told Astrid, "Go get dad. Tell him we need to talk at the hangar".
Astrid, dumbfounded, asked, "Why at the hangar"?
"Because I'm sure that our passengers need assistance and he'll be able to provide it. Besides, I think a meeting here will be a first step to smooth things over with him about this, erm, well..."

As Hiccup trailed off, Astrid nodded in understanding at what Hiccup was getting at, and after April had gotten off Stormfly, with surprising ease and no assistance (at her insistence after Donnie and Casey rushed over to offer her a hand, much to Astrid's amusement), Astrid and Stormfly took off from the hangar and headed straight to the Great Hall, as a good place to start looking for Stoick.


At the Great Hall, Gobber was exiting when he heard Astrid's voice up above.
Knowing that she was on Stormfly, he looked up and saw her dragon hovering over a spot before landing.

Seeing Astrid dismount her dragon quickly, Gobber saw that she seemed to be in such a hurry and asked, "Hey, Astrid, what's the rush"?
"Where's the Chief"?
"Stoick? Still in the Great Hall..."
"Thanks Gobber"!

With Astrid running in the direction of the Great Hall, Gobber could only look dumbfounded, confused at what could be the rush, but quietly said, "No problem, no problem at all, Astrid..."

Reaching the doors of the Great Hall, Astrid pushed them open to see Stoick having just finished speaking with the Berk Council, who were getting up from their table and moving along to their other things.
Rushing over, Astrid then got to a distance appropriate enough to address the Chief and spoke, "Chief Stoick"?
"Astrid? Where have you and the other dragon riders been? We may need..."
"No time, Chief. Hiccup wants to see you at the Dragon Hangar, right away".

Stoick's big eyebrows rose in surprise, and then came the question, "The Hangar? Why not come to me and tell me himself"?
"We've brought along visitors and Hiccup reckons that a meeting at the hangar will straighten things out".
"Visitors? What visitors"?
"It's a little bit hard to explain, but trust me, once you come down, it'll be easier to smooth things out".

Silence followed, until Stoick sighed and "Alright, let's go".
Then he turned to the rest of the Council, and another person present, whom Astrid now only just noticed, was Trader Johann.

Ignoring any questions in her head at why Johann was present for the moment, Astrid turned around to lead the way, hearing Stoick say to the Council, "You all better come along. You too, Johann".


At the dragon hangar itself, the dragon riders were mingling with their new visitors.

Mikey was taking a really great interest in the dragons that were present in the hangar, in addition to finding kindred spirits with Ruffnut and Tuffnut and sharing a love for pranks, much to Hiccup, Leo and Raph's dismay.
Of course, Mikey had to be restrained by Donnie and Casey after being warned too many times by Hiccup and Fishlegs not to approach many of the dragons present in the hangar.

But as Leo, Raph, Master Splinter and April watched on in amusement, as the dragon riders moved to help Donnie and Casey, Hiccup got their attention on an approaching party.
"Guys! Looks like Astrid brought around my dad, and a few others, so look sharp".

Astrid came over first, with Hiccup saying, "So you brought my dad along..."

"Yeah, as well as the Berk Council and Johann".
That name was a shock to Hiccup's ears, "Johann"?

But before Astrid could say anymore, Stoick then joyfully greeted his son, "Hiccup! Glad you're here! Now Astrid said you wanted to see me? About some visitors"?
Now incredibly nervous, Hiccup idly scratched the back of his head and chuckled as he went, "Erm, yeah, about that..."

Looking around, Stoick then laid his eyes on the visitors, and the moment he did, his eyebrows rose in surprise and shock.
Turning sharply, he then said, "Hiccup, you better have a good explanation for all this".

Hiccup nervously scratched the back of his head as his dad looked upon him with a face that demanded an explanation.


The discussion was, interesting to say the least.
Stoick listened as Hiccup explained the story of these strange new visitors and their predicament.
But when Stoick asked on how they came to be here, things really were thrown into shock as Hiccup said "Well, believe it or not, they said that they came through the Bifröst, and landed at an island at..."
"Wait a moment, son. I swear I could have heard you say the Bifröst".

A pause and, Hiccup awkwardly said "Yeah. Crazy, isn't it"?
Instead of responding to Hiccup's question, Stoick instead turned to the visitors and asked, "Which one of you is in charge"?

Before Leo could answer, Splinter however stepped up and said, "I will answer for my sons and their friends. Do not fear, Chief Stoick, for we are only planning to stay here long enough for us to figure out our next move and then we'll be on our way".

Raising an eyebrow over many things that Splinter said, and hearing others behind him mutter under their breath "Sons"?, amongst other things, Stoick then asked, "So, did you really travel through the Bifröst"?.

Splinter, knowing that he was a bit out of his element on this one, asked for Donatello to explain (and whispered for him to keep things simple).
Eventually Donnie then said, "Erm, well, we were in the midst of pursuing our enemies, who were after a certain artifact, called the Bifröst Key. We reached where it was being held and battled them for control, until it got accidentally destroyed, thus bringing us and our enemies here".
"What enemies"?

Splinter then took over, "Known only as the Foot Clan, and lead by my old enemy, Oroku Saki, or as he is presently known as, the Shredder. He is completely ruthless and relenting and he is stuck here, just as we are, and he will not be idly waiting by. He'll make every effort to find us and he'll let nothing get in his way in order to get what he wants".
A bit stunned from this tale, Stoick asked the obvious question, "Well, how do we know that you, whoever or whatever you are, are not playing some trick of Loki's? I require proof that this Bifröst Key exists".

Even though Hiccup was about to voice in protest, Splinter immediately responded by calling Donatello and asking, "Your memory of the Key is still fresh in your memory, am I right"?
"Yes, Sensei".
"Well, then, show it to them".
"Urm, does anyone have a piece of paper I can borrow"?

But before anyone can answer, Donnie actually spotted something he could use, a sandpit, and rushed over there, to use his Bo staff to draw the Bifröst Key with superb detail in the sand.

All the assembled party in the dragon hangar all looked upon it, and Spitelout looked upon it, with skepticism, saying "Stoick, you can't seriously believe that these outsiders are telling the truth about this. It's some kind of trick from Loki"!
Murmurs rose in agreement and quiet voices were speaking their agreement with Spitelout, and Hiccup was increasingly concerned that his father might take the side of the rest of the Berk Council without giving the visitors a chance, so he was about to say his piece to his father.
But soon, the taps of a stick interrupted them, and everyone turned to look at it's owner.
"Gothi"?
The village elder, was walking a steady pace as she approached the group, and looked upon the drawing of the Bifröst Key.
And much to the surprise of the group, Gothi's face turned right into shock.

A shocked Hiccup then said to Stoick, "Dad, I've never seen her so shocked. She must know something about this".
His father, also shocked, agreed with his son, "Yeah, I think you're right".

So the Chief approached the mute village elder and asked her, "So, do you know something about this, Gothi"?
Nodding her head at the Chief, Gothi got her stick and wiped the sandpit clean, to write in it.

Soon, Fishlegs came up to translate Gothi's writings for the benefit of the Berk Council, the dragon riders and the visitors.
"Okay, she's saying, that, a long time ago, when she was still a young adult, she heard talk about a Bifröst Key that could enable it's uses to travel throughout the Nine Realms, but she was sure that it was all just talk, until she saw the object itself and learned that there were more than one".

Now things got interesting and everyone present started whispering to each other, including the Turtles.
"Guys, you thinking what I'm thinking"?
Mikey got excited at Leo's question and said, "Oh, oh, I know! A treasure hunt! And when we get these keys, we can sell them for some extra cash! You won't believe how much treasure is to some people"!

Raph had a flat look as did Leo and Donnie at their little brother's attempt at what Leo's thought was, when the red-masked turtle said flatly, "Really? That was seriously what you thought Leo was thinking about"?
Awkwardly, Mikey went, "Urmn, yes"?
This time, Leo cut in, "No! More than one of those Bifröst Keys! Think about it, the one that brought us here got destroyed, and thus we've got no way of getting home, unless we find another. And now, we learn that there are others? Donnie, could you find a way to locate these other Keys"?
The genius, scrunching up his face, deep in thought, initially didn't respond, but before Donnie could respond, their attention was called with Leo asking the Vikings a question.

"So where are these keys?", and indicating to Gothi, he asked further, "and does she know where we can find one, anything"?
The dragon riders as well as Stoick, exchanged glances, and thus, Fishlegs turned to Gothi, asking her if she knew anything about where to find one of these keys.

Gothi started writing in the sand, and when she was finished she said, "She only heard rumours, but she was sure that the last place she knew where a Bifröst Key was, was on Bonebreaker Island, home of the Ferocious Bonebreakers".

The very name of Bonebreaker Island, sent the entire Berk Council murmuring, excluding Stoick, who asked Gothi if she was certain.
The village elder gave a single nod and that was all the Chief needed, as he said, "And speaking of the Bonebreakers, didn't you see a falling object crashing near Bonebreaker Island, Johann"?
The trader, who had been sitting on the sidelines, watching on this conversation, jumped slightly and nervously spluttered, "Well, why, yes, Chief Stoick. A falling object crashing at Bonebreaker Island, and the mushroom cloud that followed afterwards..."
Hiccup then interrupted, "Wait Johann, did you say mushroom cloud, because that's exactly what I saw, at the small island near Frigg's Cape"!
"Well, Master Hiccup, I don't know anything about an island near Frigg's Cape, but I did see two mushroom clouds, all of them the largest and darkest cloud I have ever seen in my entire life, and considering I saw that cloud of the coast of..."
"Not now, Johann! But you saw a second cloud? Wow, this is amazing, that must be the cloud I saw"!

Astrid butted in, "Hiccup, are you sure"?
"Absolutely. And it makes sense considering that Frigg's Cape is not that far from the boundaries of Ferocious Bonebreaker territory".
Johann however, said with dread in his voice, "But however, that's not the worse part. That falling object destroyed an island full of Fireworms, and it's survivors were heading in a direction for Berk"!

Every dragon rider was shocked, as memories of past encounters with Fireworms, the Stoker class dragon, came right back to them.
Adding to the fact that they were as hot as the sun, did not really help, for if they decided to settle on Berk, disaster would strike.
The dragon riders initially started bursting out in panic, making the visitors uneasy about what they were panicking about, until Hiccup stepped in and went, "Guys, calm down! We've dealt with Fireworms before, I'm sure we can manage them".
And turning to Johann, he asked, "How many days until they arrive here"?

"Oh, I reckon 5 days, probably. They were still quite some distance away and they got distracted by a bunch of Typhoomerangs, so they've got some traveling to do".

Sighing in relief, Hiccup went, "Well, that's a relief. At least it'll buy us some time. In the meantime..."

Turning to the visitors, Hiccup said, "Sorry to inconvenience you, well, with our erm, well, problems, but I'm sure we'll be glad to assist you, won't we, dad"?
"Yeah, we'll do all we can. Will that be alright"?

Leo nodded, saying gratefully, "Thank you. We don't mean to be a bother, but we really appreciate your help. So where shall we stay in the meantime"?
"The Dragon Training Academy. C'mon, we'll help get you settled in, if that's alright by you, dad".
"Quite alright, son. I trust your judgement. As long as you know what you are doing".

With that over, and his dad walking off with the rest of the Berk Council, to go to the Great Hall, Hiccup and the other dragon riders soon lead the way for the visitors to follow them to the Dragon Training Academy arena (all the while, taking their dragons along with them).
But as Hiccup walked closely near the visitors, the orange-masked visitor, who he heard was called Mikey, then asked in a bit of a disbelieving voice, "The chief's your dad"?

Even though used to disbelief, that Hiccup Haddock, the scrawny teen, was the son of Stoick the Vast, the lead dragon rider sighed and whispered to Toothless, "This is gonna be a long day, bud".


The Grand Hall, Bonebreaker Island, North-West from Frigg's Cape, the Barbaric Archipelago, Planet Earth.
Sometime during the Viking Age.

Oroku Saki, aka the Shredder, may have looked comfortable, but he was anything but whilst he sat on the throne of Chief Eldar (who was less than happy at being "dethroned", but one glare from Shredder made him back down).

Tiger Claw was currently standing beside Shredder, whilst Bradford and Xever were leading Zeck and Steranko in moving items from the wreck of the Kuraiyama to the Grand Hall, so Baxter Stockman could establish a lab, and get to work on tracking down Hamato Yoshi and the Turtles.

Karai, meanwhile, was leading the Foot-Bots in rounding up all the villagers and imprisoning them in the dungeons, which were quite large.
Despite Chief Eldar pleading for the villagers to stand down and comply with the Foot Clan, some resisted, but were killed effortlessly, by the Foot-Bots' ability to mimic the fighting styles of it's opponents and Karai turning into her serpent form to strike fear into their hearts, as well as kill those who had proved most troublesome.
This proved to the villagers that resistance against the Foot Clan was futile, and thus, they started complying.

Eventually, soon, Karai entered the Grand Hall, with 2 Foot-Bots alongside her and when she got to a close enough distance, she bowed to the Shredder, saying "Father, all the Bonebreakers, except the Chief, are within the dungeons. They are a bit full now, but we managed".
"Excellent, Karai. You have done well, my daughter. Now, you will assign the Foot-Bots to patrol the island and secure it. We shall make this island my fortress and I want all avenues defended. See to it, Karai".
Bowing, she complied, "At once, father".
Turning, the Shredder then ordered 2 other Foot-Bots, keeping watch on Chief Eldar, to bring the former Chief turned prisoner of the Foot Clan to him.

"So, Eldar. You see, this island will prove to be most useful to the Foot Clan".
"Then, why are you keeping me alive"?
"Because, you are useful. But however, the moment I deem you no longer to be any use to me..."
The noise of Shredder unsheathing the blades in his gauntlets so suddenly, made Eldar shudder.
It was so humiliating to Eldar, that the Chief of the Ferocious Bonebreakers, had been reduced to a compliant prisoner of the Foot Clan, but he had never felt more fear in his life before when this Shredder beated him in combat and threatened to kill not only him but his entire village, so he did the only thing he could do to safeguard the lives of his people.

But before Shredder could say anymore, the doors to the Grand Hall opened up loudly and Karai came through.
"Father"!

Looking over at the kunoichi, the Shredder immediately asked of her, "What is it, Karai"?
"We've made a discovery. At the arena".

At that word, Eldar muttered softly in dread, "The arena..."

Shredder heard him, and soon stood up from the Chief's throne, stepping down from the steps and saying, "Lead us to this arena, Karai. Bradford, bring along the Chief. He knows something about this arena".


Walking at a fast pace, the Shredder followed Karai, whilst behind the Shredder, Bradford lead around the 2 Foot-Bots guarding Eldar, whilst Tiger Claw stayed at the Grand Hall.

Eventually, they arrived at the closed gates to the arena, and Karai said, "They're locked, father".
Turning to the Foot-Bots, Shredder commanded them to bring him a set of keys from Eldar's confiscated items.

After much digging around, they brought him a set of keys. After trying several and failing, the sixth key they tried succeeded in unlocking the door.

Immediately there were loud clanks that followed and when Shredder pushed the door, it swung open, to reveal the large, round, empty arena.

Before Shredder could ask Karai what was her discovery, there was a loud sound, from behind a set of large metal doors.

One sound became two, then three, then five and seven as the large metal doors actually shook.
Shredder's demand was simple.
"Open them up".

Eldar's eyes widened and he burst out with "You can't! Those are where I keep the dragons locked up"!
Shredder looked sharply at Eldar, marched right up to him and put his face right into his personal space as his eyes starred straight through Eldar, terrifying him.
"Dragons"?
"Yes, dragons! The ones that I keep so I can figure out how to take down Berk's Dragon Riders"!

Silence ensured, as Shredder's eyes continued piercing through Eldar, until he threw Eldar into the hands of the 2 Foot-Bots, and then said, "Karai. Finish fortifying this island immediately".
With a bow, Karai responded with "Yes father" before leaving.
And turning to Bradford, the Shredder issued his orders, "Bradford. Once Stockman finishes up with the inventory he brings from the Kuraiyama, get him straight to work on locating Hamato Yoshi and the Turtles".
"At once Master Shredder".

And when Bradford left, the Shredder turned to face the doors containing the dragons within, and said "These dragons may prove to be very useful to me..."


Now things are gonna get exciting. The Turtles and their friends are gonna get themselves comfortable on Berk, as does the Foot Clan on Bonebreaker Island.

Sorry to keep you waiting for so long, but anyways, I was determined to get this right. This was actually a incredibly difficult chapter to do, and every day, I was doing a few words at a time. But I managed!

So anyways, don't forget to leave a review whenever you can and see you next time!
