I do not own htty, I only own Ares, Masquerade, Grim, and Olivia
Ares and Hiccup were extremely overcome with stress. They had to stop the dragons from getting to the harbor where the ships were still, being loaded with passengers. But they also had to make sure that they didn't kill them while trying to subdue them. Suddenly, as though it seemed the hoard of dragons had ceased their hostility, they began to nip and snap at each other. These then led to them taking each other down. Each one attempting to kill the other. Hiccup was watching his dragon's reaction to the massacre, and could tell he was desperate. A thought entered Hiccup's mind, one he knew his dragon might reject. "Buddy, I know you don't like using it, but in this case... Try using your ability to control them." Toothless looked around, desperate to find a different solution. He had always hated his ability to control others with just a thought, it was, in fact, the reason he had killed Hiccup's father. "Please bud." Hiccup said to him. Toothless finally agreed and a vibrating noise then began to hum. It continued to get louder as Toothless' eyes got thinner. Finally, the noise was so loud, nothing could be heard over it, Hiccup put his hands over his ears, as did Olivia, but Grim continued to soar through the air with his mind untouched and Ares continued standing on his back, blade ignited, cloak waving in the air, standing completely still.
The noise finally stopped as Toothless' collapsed on the ground gasping and coughing, the other dragons followed suit and were knocked out for a short time. Ares looked over to where Olivia was standing and saw she was in position of Masquerade's knock out glove. She started to signal him over, waving towards herself. Ares immediately flew over, questioning what she was doing with it, "How did Masquerade get this thing to work?" She asked. "I believe he heated it up to turn the toxin into fumes."Ares responded. "Can't one of you throw it up in the air and shoot fire at it to turn it into one massive cloud of knock out gas?" Olivia questioned "I'm pretty sure that spreading out the toxin would also thin it out. It'll probably just weaken them." Ares responded "Well, it looks Like Toothless' mind warp might have already chiseled away at their resolve, maybe if you hit them with this, AND, another powerful mind warp, you could get them to pass out?" Olivia stated with a hint of uncertainty in her voice. "That might work." Ares responded, not telling her that there might be a chance that Ares and Grim will pass out immediately due to the amount of toxin they would experience. "Good thinking!" He said, he turned to leave, until he felt himself being embraced by a hug. He turned his head to see that she was hugging him. She was utterly terrible at it, but still, Ares felt warm. He had never felt this, not even when spending time with Grim. "Thank you." He said softly.
He got back on Grim and flew towards Hiccup. He found the duo sitting in the grass, next to the stirring mountain of dragons. Once Ares was in communication range of them, he began to speak, "Hiccup, does Toothless have another powerful mind warp in him?" Ares asked. "I don't thi-" Hiccup started, but was interrupted by Toothless, who insisted that he did. Hiccup got up and gave the night fury a very concerned look. After a few seconds, he turned to face Ares and nodded. Toothless then looked to Grim and gave a slight nod to him, the red death bowed his head in respect. The hoard of dragons had once again launched into the air, and now we're going after Ares. Grim shot up through the air, going as fast as his two Titan wings would allow him. They kept rocketing upward, not taking even a second to rest. Ares could feel the sharp cold in the air, every second it was getting colder, and colder. Even though he was wearing a helmet, he could feel the wind hitting him, he began to hear a noise, Toothless had begun to use his mind warp. As the wind blew harder, the noise got louder. The gusts had become so harsh, that Ares' cloak was desperately, and harshly tearing through the air. His hood had also given way, to show that he was wearing a complete silver like helmet, free of emotion but not of scars and scrapes. The noise had also gotten massively louder too. The noise had become like the wind, it was all you could hear. The noise was obviously taking an effect on the dragon hoard. They now looked distracted, there eyelids and bodies had begun to twitch. Knowing all of this, Ares released one word, "Now." The rest was a blur for Olivia, she saw a green explosion above her, then she saw what looked like a massive, dark red mass falling from the sky followed by others of smaller sizes. She was then grabbed and takes by what looked like a black mass with vibrant green eyes. They began to glide off the watchtower when it appeared to have been crushed by the massive red behemoth, but ended up tumbling out of the sky and falling to the ground on top of the black animal. She got up, and for a moment, was puzzled, but these feelings of confusion were soon replaced with feelings of sheer dread, and desperate hope. She squirmed out of an unconscious Toothless' grasp. She turned to see a pile of rubble, and somehow it was on fire. She ran in a panic towards the pile of rubble and began to dig around. After a few minutes, her heart sank as she realized no one could survive having a red death fall on them, be set on fire, and have an entire tower, made out of stone fall on them. She was attempting to hold back the tears, she looked back at Hiccup who had managed to keep a straight face, but when she looked in his eyes she saw only hopelessness. The tears were becoming too much for her, and she let two roll down her face.
She was startled to hear something moving and she withdrew a hidden sword, she turned to the left and saw Ares, or who she thought looked like him. His figure was hidden in the shadows and he began to walk away into the night. She ran after the man, but found that he had just vanished. She was about to turn back, but when she looked back, she saw him, sitting right in front of her. "Ares?" Olivia asked. "Yes?" He asked, a sweet tone in his voice. "We're you planning to leave?" She asked him, playfulness in her voice, almost disregarding what had just transpired. "Maybe." He said quietly. "You were going to leave Grim here? He could be injured!" "He looks fine to me." Ares responded, beginning to point. She turned around to see that Grim was standing up, looking as energetic as ever. She then noticed Astrid running over to where Hiccup and Toothless were, making sure the dragon was okay and then grabbing her boyfriend by the back and pulling him into a kiss. "Ewwww." Ares playfully and quietly said. "Why should thy have all the fun?" Olivia said with a slightly evil tone in her voice. Ares was confused by this, that was until she grabbed both of his hands and pulling him to his feet. It was then that Olivia noticed two things, how much taller Ares was than her, and his facial features were finally revealed to her. He had dark brown, auburn hair, with slightly pale skin. The thing that struck her as the most unique thing about his face was his burning red eyes. They made her feel comfortable, terrified and happy at the same time. She gave him a very visible smirk. Ares rolled his eyes, grabbed her gently by the back and pulled her forward into a kiss.
Grim was sitting next to Toothless who was also watching his rider with his female companion making out. "I do not understand why they do that." Toothless said. "Well that's because you don't have a girlfriend!" Grim playfully answered, "Oh, and you do?" Toothless responded back, playfulness evident in his voice too. "No..." Grim said with fake sadness in his voice. They continued to watch their riders and their lovers. Ares couldn't be happier, that warm feeling he had returned, but times ten. Hiccup and Astrid had pulled away from each other but we're still at each other's side. They looked at "Aww." Astrid said. "They know each other for about a day and they skip the dates, have the life and death experience, and now they're kissing? That was fast." Astrid quickly gave him an elbow in the side, "Was it really any different for you and me?" "Well, actuall-" Hiccup started, but was interrupted by a shushing Astrid. Olivia and Ares slowly separated, they began to walk at each other's side through the night. Ares knelt down to a pile of ashes and found his helmet lying in them. After picking it up and brushing it off, Olivia knelt next to him and asked, "Why do you wear that?" "Why do you ask?" Ares questioned. "Honestly, it's a little creepy." Olivia answered. "That's the point." Ares responded. "I want one." Olivia said quickly and subtly as she proceeded to quickly snatch the helmet out of his hands and run off with it, once the couple ran by Hiccup and Astrid, the two quickly joined in. Ares was much like a large tower among them, he was also much faster than them, and would have beaten them several times over, if not for the fact he let them beat him. They continued this game until the sun came up and all fell asleep except Ares and Grim. The two retreated to the caves under Berk, where Ares discussed plans for the future. "So I guess we are permanently staying?" Ares asked, talking to no one in particular. "And I guess I now have a girlfriend." "I'm definitely NOT making a helmet and cloak for her." This caught Grim's attention as his head perked up and he gave him a "really?" "I'm not!" Ares said back, the state of his voice made it obvious that he was lying. "Hey Grim, get some spare dark purple cloth out of the trunk would you?" Grim then clumsily, and Ares thought to himself, "Smooth, smooth..."

Ares and the Dragons
Oh my gosh! Ares almost died! Actually, no he didn't even come close, Grim just formed an egg around him with his wings, so no. I apologize to the people who don't like the endings where the hero is said to be dead, but comes back to life after everyone gives up hope, it really has been cliched these days, but a huge thanks to everyone who read, reviews and favorited my story! I will continue this in a mini series called "They need a monster" and I will also be doing some fnaf too! (No smut, no lemons or anything like that!) yes, there will be some fnaf. Also, updates on the mini series will only get darker, (But not too dark!) so, I shall see you guys, when I release the dates on the new books. So until then...
Goldie Out!
