Helllllllllooooooooo everybody! Long time no see in this fanfic! So i've read the requests and heres one I decided to choose. This is basically about Valka and Eret trying to get along since u know they didn't have such a great time in the past. Enjoy ;)
"Chief Hiccup, we got a problem!"
Astrid exclaimed, barging in the Haddock house where Hiccup was with Fishlegs, making new blue prints for building plans for the still trumbled up village, it's only been four months after the attack from Drago's bewilderbeast.
"Please don't tell me that the twins are trying to help by making those ice spikes blow up again," Hiccup sighed, remebering the damage to the plaza at the last incident.
"Nope! Much worse!"
"Is Gobber trying to run away from a bath again?" Hiccup guessed, getting a sick feeling about this situation Astrid is reporting.
"Oh thank gods no! It's actually Eret and well...your mother." Astrid didn't need to explain more than she had to since Hiccup quickly ran out the house with Toothless as he mounted on top of him, and the duo was flying off as fast as they could!
"Whoa, look at all the damage and destruction," Ruffnut gasped, watching from on top of Barf with her brother.
"I know it's beautiful!" Tuffnut teared up. "But do you think we should do something? I mean, I think he's turning blue now. Oh now he just pushed her!
"We'll get to it in a minute," Ruffnut waved off, she was pretty much enjoying the scene she was watching with her brother. "Do you have any nuts?"
"Quiet! Things just heated up!" Tuffnut hushed her, looking over at...
"OH FOR ODIN'S SAKE'S WOMEN I WAS JUST TRYING TO HELP!"
"NO YOU'RE JUST GETTING IN MY WAY! AGAIN!"
There, standing on opposite ends stood Valka and Eret, and from the looks of things, they may have asked their dragons to shoot a bit too much fire.
"You're the one who was having trouble trying to carry those supplies so I thought that I could help you!" Eret yelled, still annoyed!
"Oh sure then can you explain why half of those supplies ended up getting burned into ashes!?" Valka asked in fury, ready to choke Eret woth her staff again.
"I'm still new to the whole dragon riding thing! How should I know Skullcrusher was going to fire if I stratched behind his head!"
"Oh I don't know!?" Valka asked sarcastically. "Maybe if you hadn't spent your life hunting dragons then maybe you would now more about dragon riding!"
"That was in the past! I've changed for the better now!" Eret the accidently had Skullcrusher shoot another fireball, making Valka even more anrgy than she was already! Before she could command Cloudjumper to shoot fire, Toothless came flying in with Hiccup, separating the two just in time!
While Astrid and Fishlegs took off the fire, Hiccup had to do his chiefing methods with the two vikings who are arguing. "Okay what happened here and please one at a time! Mom why don't you start since you look like you're about to blast the whole island."
"Fine," Valka explained, trying to stay calm for her son's sake. "I was just carrying extra supplies Gobber needed for the village repairs until this muttonhead decided that it would be a good idea to use Skullcrusher's fire to burn half of it after startling me becuase if his big mouth!"
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING BIG MOUTH!?"
"YOUR BIG MOUTH OF COURSE, GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT SON OF ERET!?"
"YES I DO GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT! Hiccup, all I did was offer to help her carry the supplies, I had no intentions of burning them! It was by accident but just because it burned, doesn't mean for her to go crazy to shot fire back at me!"
"YOU SHOT FIRST YOU LYING TRAPPER!"
"FOR THE LAST TIME STOP CALLING ME THAT, I'VE CHANGED!"
"Okay...JUST BE QUIET FOR A MOMENT!" Hiccup shouted, earning their attention as he continued. "So do you two think you can work together on any other project without this happening?"
The two didn't say a word, they only just glared at each other and walked away muttering some curses. Astrid ran up to Hiccup to see what were the results, until Hiccup smiled to himself. "You know Astrid this reminds me of that time you and Snotlout were at each others neck."
"So you still remember that incident?" Astrid asked, a bit amused herself with the little memory. "Was a big mess until you had us switch dragons, but I doubt you'll have Eret and your mother switch their dragons."
"No not yet anyway," Hiccup then mounted on top of Toothless again, ready to fly back to his home. "We'll have to wait and see how bad this turns out. I just hope they're not going to be on each other's neck for long."
He spook too soon unforunately.
A Few Hours Later...
"So let me get this straight you two, Gobber wanted you two to work together by helping him make saddles but instead you got half the forge on fire," Hiccup sighed, basically summarizing the scene before him. Gobber was trying to see the damages in the half burned forge after the fire was put out.
"It wasn't me Hiccup!" Eret protested, "Valka decided it would a good idea to try to choke me with her staff!"
"That was because you got Cloudjumper stuck in a set of nets!" Valka was ready to beat him but Hiccup had Cloudjumper block her way.
"It was an accident, besides you were muttering something about Skullcrusher so maybe it could have been a lesson about insulting my dragon!"
"Your dragon? YOUR DRAGON?!" Valka gasped, turning red with anger and since Hiccup got the feeling where this was going to head towards, he had to intervene quick!
Unfortunately he was too slow to say anything since his mother shouted with anger! "SKULLCRUSHER WASN'T YOUR DRAGON FROM THE START!"
"LAST TIME I CHECKED VALKA, SKULLCRUSHER WAS GIVEN TO ME FROM HICCUP!
"THAT'S BECAUSE THERE ISN'T ANY OTHER RIDER FOR HIM! MAYBE IF YOU HADN'T WORKED FOR DRAGO-"
"I DON'T ANYMORE!"
"BUT IT WAS TOO LATE, THE DAMAGE WAS DONE!"
"SO NOW YOUR BLAMING ME FOR WHAT HAPPENED, LAST TIME I CHECKED I DON'T CONTROL THE BEWILDERBEAST DRAGO HAS!"
"BUT YOU DID SUPPLY HIM WITH ALL THE DRAGONS HE WANTED!"
"Okay okay so you two had a misunderstanding, Eret maybe my mom wasn't insulting Skullcrusher, and mom maybe Eret didn't mean to trap Cloudjumper." Hiccup could feel his heart ache, since Skullcrusher used to be his father's dragon but after his death and the dragon had no other rider, Eret seemed to be the best possibly. Sure he didn't want Eret to replace Stoick's place as a dragon rider but the trapper changed his ways.
However, apparently the two didn't pay attention since Valka looked at her son while pointing towards Eret. "Hiccup look to cut this short, I refuse to work wih this dragontrapping muttonhead!"
"And I refuse to work with this crazy dragon lady...No offense Hiccup," Eret quickly apologized since Valka is the chief's mom.
"None taken, so here's what we'll do for now just try to stay away from each other as much as possible so you won't accidently burn something else. Alright?" Hiccup hoped things would calm down but Valka yelled at him in anger.
"Shut up! How could you let such a person like him be here when he used to help the man who killed your father! And then jusy let him take in Skullcrusher!?"
Hiccup back up a little, feeling that ache in his again but he ignored it, seei g the tension build up but thankfully Snotlout and Astrid flew in just in time to help. "Uh Snotlout, Astrid..You guys wouldn't mind if..."
"Way ahead of you chief," Snotlout clapped his hands, using Hookfang to push Eret to the other side of the village. "Say Eret, have I ever told you about the time I beat Hiccup every year in our Thawfest games?"
Astrid gave Hiccup a wink as she gently hauled Valka to the Great Hall. "So Valka, have I ever told you about Berk's first Snoggletog with dragons?"
"Thanks guys.." Hiccup sighed, running his hand through his hair until his eyes looked up at the statue of his father. "Come on Toothless, we're going to get some advice."
Didn't take long for the duo to fly and land next to the statue, and there Hiccup began to pace back and forth. Before he even realized, he was beginning to talk the way his father would. "So son, you're the chief of berk, saved the village from Drago, so how is the cleanup going?"
"Oh it couldn't been better dad," Hiccup answered himself in his normal voice. "Everything's going great! We're working great like a well oiled catapult."
"Really because word on the street is, your mother and Eret are turning the catapult on to each other, again."
"What no, just a few misunderstandings that's all..." He paused, realizing that things aren't going too well. "Fine you win, mom and Eret are driving not only me crazy but the entire village! I need some advice, I'm all ears."
"Son there are three ways to handle vikings who are not getting along. Option one, give them axes and let them fight to the end."
"Too permanment.."
"Option two, give them maces and let fight to the end."
"I think that's too permanent too. Option three."
"Option three is very devious but then again, goes down like a treat. You trick them into working together."
"Yeah that's about it." Hiccup felt himself beginning to shake a little, his eyes getting watery but he quickly shook off that feeling of grief, turned towards Toothless, who was trying so hard not to belive that he's gone mad. "Toothless, come on bud, we have some planning to do."
"Hiccup?" Valka peeked in the Haddock household, seeing that her son wasn't inside, the house was bascially empty except for Fishlegs who was looking at the blueprints. "Fishlegs, you didn't happen to see Hiccup after that little skirmish...I just wanted to see if Hiccup's alright, I said things I shouldn't have."
"Valka there you are!" Astrid came in to reassure the worried mother. "Don't worry, Hiccup just went on a flight with Toothless, needs to blow off some steam for a bit."
"But I have to see him right now, I said things I shouldn't have and I ahve to make this up to him!" Valka protested, as Astrid led her to sit down.
"Don't worry Valka, I know Hiccup knows that you didn't mean why you shouted at him, you were just angry which is normal for everyone. But you and Eret were really fighting reallly bad. But Hiccup will be back tomorrow, he said something about going to a neighboring island passed Itchy Armpit to get new supplies."
Valka just nodded, not even noticing Astrid winking at Fishlegs.
"It's been four days, I thought Hiccup was supposed to back a while ago now," Eret sighed during a day partol with Snotlut and the twins. "You don't think something happened to him and Toothless do you?"
"Nope, Hiccup is our chief afterall," Snotlout reassured, "He's the strongest guy I've ever met, there's no way he would let himself get caught! I mean he's been hit by lightning, mde peace with the outcasts, defeated Dagur, fought the most largest dragon in history, outsmarted some other dragons, and way more!"
"If you say so..." Eret suddenly saw a suspious shadow lurk around the beach, so without hestiation, he turned Skullcrusher around to head towards the beach, "I'll be right back, I have to check on something."
He flew off so fast, he didn't notice Snotlout and the twins high fiving while he didn't also notice another rider flying to the beach as well..
This is part one guys, part two will come eventually;)
