"H-how could you possibly know how to speak Norse?" Fishlegs asked shakily, as the blue dragon narrowed her eyes at the group.
"I asked you a question first, and you better answer it quickly before I blast you into next week!" the dragon seethed threatheningly, and now that she (at least judging by its voice it was a she) was out of the shadows, the gang had a better view of the dragon. She was a deep velvet blue colour, with shimmering scales, and had a long thin neck, and a small, sharp head. Her wings were average size, just slightly smaller than her body size, and her under wings were dark navy. The dragon's eyes were a sharp shot of emerald green, much like the colour of Toothless.
"Excuse me, but we are your guests, and that is no way to speak to the heroes who helped end the war with the dragons!" Camicazi retorted, quite angry at how rude the she-dragon was. At that remark, the midnight dragon chuckled darkly, and walked a couple of steps to face them, with Fishlegs trembling in fear underneath her, and Camicazi glaring defiantly up.
"Well, we don't care about that. All I want to know is what are you doing in our territory! Escpecially without permission!"
"Permission from who?! Do you want a permission slip?" Camicazi seethed back, as the two went head to head, Fishlegs cowering in the background.
"No! I want the secret code!"
"We are here for the Moonlight Rose, and there is nothing your dragon hide can do to stop us from getting it!"
"The M-moonlight Rose? Why would you scummy humans seek it!?" the dragon stuttered in disbelief, as she seemed to hesitate. Good, about time this dragon knew who she were dealing with, Camicazi huffed indignantly, as the dragon eyes them warily.
"We 'seek' it because we need it! Our friend is on his deathbed, dying, and the Moonlight Rose is the only thing that can save him!" Fishlegs cried, a little unsure, but still saying his piece. The dragon looked back at Camicazi who nodded in agreement.
"Give me one good reason why I would care about your friend?" she seethed in Camicazi's face, and the young viking happily accepted the challenge.
"Because he alone ended the war between the dragons, created peace, created equality and destroyed the one and only Alvin the Treacherous!"
"Alvin, the Treacherous is dead?" the dragon whispered in disbelief, making Camicai start.
"Yeah, and Hiccup killed him," Fishlegs said, feeling a little braver at the dragon's discomfort. Even if this information wasn't strictly true, Hiccup did deserve the credit of trying to get rid of Alvin, succeeding in getting rid of him bit by bit with each part of the villain's body.
"H-he killed him?" the blue serpent whispered again in amazement. "W-we have been trying to fend him off from the rose for ages, and this Hiccup-kid killed him like, like that?"
"Yeah, and don't forget he ended the war and can speak dragonese!" Camicazi said, nodding in approval.
"He must be the strongest person," the dragon said in a hushed voice, as she stared down at the floor, debating at what to do.
"Oh, he is strong, but not in physical strength. He's strong in mind and spirit," Camicazi replied, as she scanned the dragon up and down. She seemed quite small, now that she had dropped her act, quite like… "and he's a runt, too,"
"H-he is?"
"Yeah, like me," Fishlegs said peeking out behind his friend yet again. The blue dragon finally sighed, as she looked back up at the friends, who were looking at her in expectation.
"Alright, you shall live," the dragon sighed again, as she backed away, and started to turn around.
"I will tell the others that you are clear,"
"There are others?" Fishlegs asked shakily, as fear over took him again. Camicazi cocked her head in confusion, as the blue dragon turned around, raising her head to the sky. Then, before the Dragonmark companions knew what was happening, the dragon emitted a sharp shriek, followed by a very loud warble.
"W-what's going on?"
"I don't know," Camicazi replied, as she tilted her head to look up outside the cave they were in, up into the dark sky.
Suddenly, more dark shapes appeared, gliding through the sky. There were around four, maybe five, and they all landed at the mouth of the cave.
"What do we have here?" a voice asked, as the largest shadow stepped out, revealing a dragon twice the size of the other they were speaking to.
"Uh oh"
"Umm, hi. I'm Fishlegs, and this is Camicazi. We're vikings and we're just trying to save our friend from a deadly poison or venow, whichever it is, so if you don't mind we will just be on our way to get out of your wa-" Fishlegs stopped mid sentence, as he froze in his attempt to yank Camicazi away from the herd of dragons. He swallowed, as the other dragon next to the leader slunk forward menacingly.
"Going where exactly?" it hissed, neck stretching at its highest, glaring down at the two trembling vikings.
"To find the Moonlight Ro- mghmgmph!" Camicazi struggled as Fishlegs held his hand on her mouth, preventing her from finishing the sentence.
"The Moonlight Rock! Yes, that's what we're looking for, so if you please let us go, we'll just go and find this special stone, an then we'll be off- eek!" Fishlegs squeaked, as the dragon picked him up in a gigantic paw, holding him up to stare him in the eyes. The viking quivered, trying not to hold it's gaze, as a dragon's gaze was hypnotic, and it felt as if everything inside you was being sucked out.
"Heee's lying!" the dragon shreed, dropping Fishlegs to the ground, where he hastily scrambled up.
"Take them to the chamber!" the leader shrieked, and the two dragons behind it swooped over it's shoulders, gliding over with their claws outstretched, and snatching the vikings up in their paws, before Camicazi or Fishlegs could even blink. "We'll decide what to do with them later," was the last thing they heard, before they flew down a small passageway, the light of the moon blinking out.
"Stay strong, Hiccup," Wodensfang whispered on the bed pole. The young king's heartbeat was still, very quiet, beating slowly. Dangerously low.
"We need you. Don't give up on your kingdom yet, just give us a chance,"
HEEYYY I AM BACK! AS FLOOFYFOX! WITH A WHOLE LOT MORE WRITING EXPERIENCE! AND STUFF!
Okay, you have my permission to kill me, but be warned the story won't be finished. I was a jerk, to leave you all like that, without a notice, but I just wrote this small chapter to let you all know, I have not given up on this story, and I will finish it. Even if it means I have to bring Alvin back from the dead to keep torturing me until I finish it.
The reason I left this, was I wanted to get more writing experience, and now that I look back on the previous chapters...
Eh, I was such a noob. Well, amateur if you must. Ehhhhhh, that was horrible writing.. Welp, I am better at writing now, so no need to fear! ALSO, I ACTUALLY proof read. Crazy, right? Anyway, until next time, Peace Out!
