The path to forgiveness is cleansed with the spilled blood of the fallen Dragon Hunters as they swarm like clouds, and desperately seek the Æðeling of Éðelléas Segenum's darkblood like the Dragons have running through their very veins. The key to the decayed King and the next journey forwards begins and ends with the death of both an fugitive and an False God among the Barbaric Archipelago
-Emperor Dretzymiro
(A/N: The time as come for the final chapter, it all ends here just like the Fall of Red Death; the fate of the Archipelago and Mierveia Vde Rallie lies in the hands of Drayko Ryder and the Knights of the Dragon Riders. Now Berk will finally begin to fear the rising threat that he will become when the news spreads like wildfire, they've come too far to fall and now it will finally come to an end; death will be the Dragons' freedom from their growing madness as they are further enslaved, the final battle against Drago Bludvist begins. Thanks for reading up to this point and now I will say it one last time to conclude this epic story, Enjoy!)
Roaring from high above the skies were the enslaved Dragons now freed from the hands of the Dragon Hunters and their allies while the ones who enslaved them were now being imprisoned by the Pendulum Guardians; their brigantines and fleet of ships were liberated from them, now taking them all for their own use as they intend to redesign them first beforehand to rid of any remnants of the original owners. Many were being escorted with some of their enemies being executed on sight for attempted escape, there was no hope for them; the Dragon Hunters have all suffered the devastating blow that would cripple them greatly, but some have decided that they would now give up their lives of hunting to join Draconia all in the name of Lord Drayko and his Night Fury known to them as none other than Toothless. The aftermath had begun when the Fortress came crashing down, leaving very few survivors thanks to the attack made by the Dragons who were once enslaved and now freed
Racing towards the Knights and their allies such as the Berserker Siblings, Murderous the Magnificent II along with Mala and the Defenders of the Wing; including Mikekolt and his Whispering Death: "Rainserviper" had all turned to see Lord Drayko being carried by Speedy who had now become the Alpha of his own pack, Toothless and Cloudjumper had flown towards them. General Scorpio and the New Riders also arrived onto the scene as well, just as the Knights began to tend to their leader
"Drayko!" Maria called out as she came to him, with the Knight being carried off by the others; looking up to face her
"Drago Bludvist lives no more, we have taken him down... now there is no fear left" He stated sluggishly, his Birthmark glowing to help him recover much faster from his wounds he had suffered from escaping the collapsing Fortress
"It looks like no one can kill the Legendary Dragon Rider, not even if they were an Dragon God in the first place" Mikekolt remarked as Rainserviper snickered, agreeing with his Rider that he had grown up with since he was an young lad. His scales were an dark barbour green with an very deep olive tint, sporting an maroon and cherry to rhubarb red color for his upper quills while his lower quills were an dark ebony and charcoal black color; with his serpent underbelly being an buttermilk and lenox tan color with an oyster tan undertone
"Gods overestimate themselves..." Drayko declared as his reason for his and Toothless' victory against Drago Bludvist, with General Scorpio gesturing Arson to come over to his side as they begin to strip his armor off for any injuries; examining that his entire right leg was now beyond rotting as the damage was done, severed prior to the point of his fight with the Dragon God. It was quite the mess made from the time he emerged victorious from Red Death, but it seemed like everyone always made his right leg a target for everyone who's out to make his life miserable on Berk and out to get him at Draconia; it's like they knew he was going to lose an leg soon. They had set up the curtains around the procedure as the Knights all stood back, knowing that this was an sight to be seen by Drayko and Arson alone
It was swollen beyond pain with the bone being cracked and split, but no less being held stable to the point of being able to run; the flesh rotting down to his severed cut that was no longer bleeding thanks to the filthy, ripped and weak bandages that were wrapped around. Some of it were shriveled to the bloodied bone and worse, some of it was actually peeling off like wallpaper; jammed into him pretty tight thanks to that god damn Titan Wing on Dragonscale Cliff, now was the time to have this limb removed for good and replaced with an much better prosthetic. Although it may not come off as to make as much sense in terms of what the prosthetic leg looks like, at least it would also act like a weapon in of itself; being forged by Bladehead and strengthened with an Night Fury's Plasma Bolt, which they had just found out about thanks to Aythro who had arrived just in time to see the aftermath of the entire battle
"Hold on tight Drayko, this will be much more than painful" Scorpio had warned him along with an tone of not wanting to do this
"Are the restraints secure?" Drayko asked
"They are, I'll ask about what had happened during my absence when we return to Draconia"
"The messes are always coming to me rather than me getting into them, but it'll all be over before we know it" He told him as his tone of voice was now sounding a bit more lively and like his old self again, now out of being cold and introvertive that he's been throughout the journey. "Here goes nothing...!"
They proceeded to pull very hard on the leg to which Drayko had jammed back into place during his fight with the Titan Nightmare, which as predicted caused immense and unbearable pain of amputation; getting screams of agony and curses from hell as if he was getting sprayed and burned by the Nightmare's kerosene stream, this time lasting longer as the pain was slower but not ever feeling soothed once. Arson could feel it get loose but needed the aid of an Dragon to help him, which only made it worse as his Scauldron; Tidalwing had helped out which made the pain even more worse than before
"AAARRRGHH! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! GOD DAMMIT! THAT FUCKING HURTS!" Drayko screamed in pain, spitting up some blood as he continued to struggle all around; just as his right leg was heavily secured in place, but he really needed it removed as he could not feel anything from the limb anymore. He just wasn't human with it, instead he was partially turning into an zombie/draugr
Chainsmoke and Brimstone made the pain worse as Arson and Tidalwing continued to pull out his leg, having the splintered bone from inside slide out through and surprisingly with the darkblood spilling out onto the bed until they yanked it out completely; with obviously painful results, the stinging from the pulling lasted for an few moments before Drayko had immediately calmed as he saw his zombie leg finally ripped out. Arson made him drink an weaker version of the tea that Gothi made and used when Stoick had whipped him on the back, having him pass out and sleep through the session of having his prosthetic attached
When he did reawaken, he found Dagur checking out his new prosthetic leg which he seemed to had taken an liking to it already; this is what the leg looked like and however ridiculous it may be, Drayko didn't mind at all as he figured that this would only make his bond with Toothless even stronger than before:
His right leg had been burned, covered in filth, forcibly stuck above the kneecap painfully and rotted down to the bone for so long since that battle with Captain Lech of the Barbarians during Toothless' Behwearft that he's finally gotten his replacement; not to mention his rotting zombie right leg to knee was also bleeding frequently, damn. His leg was more like a swiss army knife of a Bird Talon that had three sharp toes with switchable blades in the front, was made of Volcanripper Metal and had an complex of rings and gears inspired by the Dragon Eye II that he built. His leg can perch and had a unbreakable grip on it as well which also allowed him to swing and hang upside down, it really was like a swiss army knife and this leg is attached onto him so greatly that not even some hostile and powerful Dragons can tear it off. It folded in from the sides like a human foot and allowed him to put on his boots. This cannot be removed as Bladehead created this and made it so that only him and Drayko can do it. Finally, it was full of traps that triggered whenever someone who would act like an fool tried to take him down
"A Talon, what next; an wing for an lost left arm?" Dagur joked as he walked all around him, turning serious as he continued speaking: "You always had the better and cooler toys than the Berserkers, especially this one that I wouldn't want even if I lost an leg of my own" It was then that Arson had released Drayko from his restraints from the bed, stumbling over for a few times but getting used to walking with the leg; thanks to his brother as he placed an arm over his neck, walking as the sun from the dark clouds peaked to create an shadow behind them: An wounded Knight who had lost his leg and an Night Fury who had lost his Tailfin, there could be no other pair than this two of an kind right here
"Of course you wouldn't Dagur, no one wants to see the Berserker Chief lose two good legs; unlike me that is who lost his right leg, but tried to keep it on for as long as he could..." Drayko stated but collapsed on his knee, recovering afterwards as he soon got control over his prosthetic just by walking
"Now, just what happened to the cold, dark and moody Drayko? I miss him already..." Dagur expressed his mocked disappointment
"That's still me brother, how would you like to see that bastard Captain Lech stab either Shattermaster or Sleuther?"
"Heather's been telling me about that, especially the part where you didn't eat anything at all; except for that dopey dessert she calls it, that you're always eating at night" Dagur informed him
"It's supposed to help me and at least it's working it's own magic to my mind" Drayko stroked his forehead
"Looks like I'm not the only one whose fucked up in the brain, the others are waiting for you; we're not out of the woods yet unfortunately..." Dagur directed the path in front of him as they both began making their way to where the others were heading to. "By the way thanks for returning my Crossbow back when you pretended to die, thought I lost when I fought off my traitorous men in the Underground Caverns" Dagur thanked him as he held his weapon by his two Dragons, locked and loaded in case anyone tries to jump them all
Drayko and Dagur left the medical bay that was all packed up by Arson before fully regrouping with the others, albeit with some accidents along the way as he slipped; fell and limped the entire way they walked, still lightly coughing up some blood but getting the hang of his right leg. Toothless had sniffed it and even licked his face, walking by his side and helping him out just as they reached where they were overlooking the entire campsite, full of enemies captured by them after the battle that had subsided awhile ago; but would not remain calm for very long as the winds began to blow, and the dark black and grey clouds with the sun peaking in the sky still remained. Drayko and Dagur both stopped in their tracks just as Mala and Throk had approached them both, seeing that there was no sign of Empress Jacqueline anywhere; but dare they ask about what has become of her
"Empress Jacqueline, is she...?" Mala asked
"She's gone, now she may reunite with her husband; but it feels like she was sacrificed in vain all because she did the same to me when Drago prepared to kill me" Drayko turned his head away, his hair blowing to the side
"She did what I've would've done had Her Majesty been the one to take her place instead, the Empress' sacrifice was not in vain; we did all we could to make sure that she lived and kept her out of the false God's hands" Throk stated
"A real pity too, I had just made a gift for her from the Murderous Tribe; now she's sacrificed all she had left" Murderous the Magnificent II stated, shaking his head as they all mourned her death
But as Drayko was just about to say something to Maria after they were left alone to be with each other, although the Knights and their Dragons were watching; the winds had began to blow into the darkened sky as the Hunters, Flyers and Trappers watched on. The Knights and their allies had their weapons out and ready, knowing what was about to happen just as the Black King appeared from behind with Green Death; the winds began to blow further from behind them as Drayko's cape flowed forwards towards to where they were standing, the sky becoming even darker than before as the sun continued to peak through brighter and brighter than before. A white symbol consisting of an thick ring with an short twig rune appearing in the center appeared one by one before they all started to flash through faster and faster, spelling out this message as Drayko ignited Inferno to prepare for what was about to happen: "I am the only God among them" Without warning, Drago Bludvist's true appearance ripped through the ground before them; standing up and now looming over them, as he was now revealed to be the true hideous and cold blooded monster that he really is
He was an filthy rotting skeleton now with ripped clothing and armor pieces falling off one by one, his tusks facing upward from his jawless skull as both of ends of his legs were now like hooves; with sharp talon claws like that of an Monstrous Nightmare, although they both looked rusted and splintered as if they both aged horribly. He was clearly larger and his dreadlocks were longer and thicker, flowing backwards from the wind as his stomach was ripped open from the sides; having thick claws closing the chest as his flesh was stripped off, with four large and bloody parasite intestines that were sprouted from his back and pumped out cascades of the last of his human blood. His bullhook remained untouched as two spiked mace balls were chained to his chest, smelly as a pile of corpses and all in all; his meat was exposed with his tentions and veins now revealed, his hands were now sharp like claws
"The power of the Dragon God is mine and the gate to the Underworld is open. Drayko, you will not get away; this is where you will DIE!" He screamed out in his horrible distorted voice as he slammed his bullhook to cause an short earthquake
"I'm not going anywhere neither, look all around you Bludvist; there's no place to run and no place for go" Drayko held his arms out as he walked backwards, continuing to talk with him as he went as so far as to state this: "THIS WILL BE YOUR FINAL BURIAL AS WELL!" He screamed back at him with full anger in his voice as he pointed to the hideous and disgusting, true appearance that was most definitely the monster in his cold and black heartless soul. For an warlord like him has no heart to know what it means to be human like both man and Dragonkind alike, and thus: The final battle had begun...!
Maria loaded up an round of six arrows at once and fired onto the exposed fleshy meat of the self proclaimed Dragon God himself, all of them were laced with an explosive substance as they detonated upon the arrowheads stabbing through; this caused the severely wounded God to stagger backwards but retaliated with an earthquaking stomp onto the icy ground, shaking the foundations below him to rattle uncontrollably. She retained her balance and jumped forwards with her Arcticwind axe in her hands, swinging downards as he stabbed into his chest; although she could not penetrate through the claws which were frozen, but broke free as they smacked her away all at once
Raedwit sprinted forward just as Drago exposed his black and heartless soul after smacking the Huntress away from her, jumping forward and drawing back his Thunderbolt spear before driving it forwards; stabbing through him as if he was an Spartan albeit an french one to say, the false God had roared out before driving his fist into the ground. This caused pillars of magma to sprout upwards as the Illusionist jumped off to avoid, while Bladehead took this brief moment to focus his entire anger into an weapon of his own; his flesh burning from outside and steam evaporating from his back as he opened his eyes, and roared out to the skies above with an fearsome battlecry. Thick but very faint red, orange and purple colored flames engulfed his body as he ran forward with Storm taking off to the skies to reload his shots of lightning streams into his dark toxic purple scales
The Blacksmith charged forward before shoulder tackling the Dragon God before getting into an grapple against each other, pushing back and forwards as they both pressed on with their fists grasped; letting out vicious growls as Bladehead threw him off and heavily struck him in the black and red singed skull with his halberd, proceeding to yank his jawless skull straight into his knee as he shook his head afterwards. Drago was then caught off guard when he was electrocuted by Storm firing off an lightning stream onto him, frying his body as Bladehead picked up an large stone as he declared: "I will not let ya' enslave me Storm!" He jumped forwards and smashed the stone onto him, jumping backwards as Drago recovered and attempted to swipe him with his left claw
Eret in the meantime was running up from the back of the God before jumping and stabbing his back, with both twin swords digging deep and piercing through to his chest; the former Trapper had removed one blade and stabbed him horizontally in the throat, flinging himself off afterwards as Drago swung his bullhook's staff into his stomach which had flipped him off. He then attempted to stab his face with the scythe blade but rolled out of the way as it struck the ground, with Rose appearing from behind to shower him with acid; but Drago had quickly turned and smacked her away to the side, with Dragur spinning his scythe towards him as he easily blocked it. Locking their weapons together as they attempted to overpower the other, with Eret returning shoulder charge him in the jawless skull; stabbing his eyes out with his blades as he shouted this at him: "I told you would make you pay for betraying me, Drago!" Just as he finished, Skullcrusher came ramming into him; sending him to the ground before blasting him with an fiery missile. But the false God had then unleashed an shockwave like shield that knocked them all away form him, still possessing the powers he had in his human form
He then raised his fist to block the incoming projectile of quills coming right at his chest, as he turned to face Mikekolt and Rainserviper preparing to fire an ring of flames towards him; but flew out of the way as he fired off an bombardment of meteors down onto him, by slamming his staff downwards. Although they tried as they could, Rainserviper was struck down by the two meteors and sent downwards to the icy ground; but he was not out of the fight just yet as he retreated underground, slithering towards the God as Mikekolt came towards him with an Marauder Scimitar in his hand. In the meantime as the Castlekroftservkhall had stabbed and carved the blade diagonally downwards onto his chest, Frost had thrown his Snowblind trident onto Drago's left leg; freezing and pinning him place just as he grabbed Mikekolt by the throat, slamming him to the ground before Rainserviper emerged from the earth below and sent the God flying into the air. The Whispering Death coiling around before tightly constricting him with his sharp quills, although Drago grabbed him by the neck and tail before flying downards towards the ground; creating an devastating impact as Rainserviper was stunned for awhile, with Mikekolt standing in front of his bud to prevent anymore damage to be done to him
The Dragon God rushed forward with his fast speed and slashed against both of them with his bullhook's scythe like blades, leaving Mikekolt and Rainserviper scathed in bleeding scars before heavily swinging against his scimitar; with each blow sending him backwards until Heather intervened by kicking his leg inwards, leaving him stunned before climbing onto his back and stabbing through his neck before Windshear fired off an bright blue fireball towards his face. However, Bludvist had jumped and tipped backwards in order to smash her against the floor before pinning her to the ground; but until Dragur had grabbed his dreadlocks and pulled him backwards by the head, sending the back of his neck into his knee and prying open the claws of his chest backwards. Fishlegs came running in with Meatlug and Tranchant before swinging the Shatterquake downwards onto his black and heartless soul that was now exposed, landing an critical and nasty impact as the Dragon God once again roared out in both pain and fury; Meatlug and Tranchant adding into the pain as they both fired off an magma blast and Plasma Bolt respectively, creating an further explosion
Drago Bludvist had gotten back up and emerged from within the wall of flames created by the previous explosion, vengefully holding his bullhook as Raijah swung his retractable talons against his body; leaving some fairly deep scars and even slamming both of them downwards, staggering backwards before preforming an diagonally upwards X-slash move that his human blood spill out from the wounds he had inflicted. When Drago came to attack with one of his four intestines that fired out streams of blood, Raijah had dodged the incoming attack and used his claws to cut off two of them at the same time; before Hookfang had light himself ablaze and fired off an kerosene stream against him, whom the God had blocked with his hand before throwing his bullhook against the Nightmare. Raijah had taken the hit for him as Hookfang ran and smacked him to the side with his tail, leaving him stunned before cutting off the other intestines sprouting from his back by using his talons; firing off another kerosene stream against him. Eventually, Drago Bludvist has had enough of this foolishness and stomped his foot onto the ground; causing another earthquake as he unleashed another shockwave to send the Knights flying against the wall and towards other places of the arena they fought in
Valka stepped forward ready to put an end to this, with Cloudjumper flying high above her as they were both ready to put an end to his conquest. She thrusted her newly reinforced staff towards Drago, stabbing him in the leg as he swung his bullhook to her left flank; blocking the swing before retaliating with an overhead smack against the skull, hooking onto his neck and swinging to slam his skull down to the ground. The Dragon God drawn back his bullhook and attempted to spear through her, with the Dragon Rescuer easily dodging to the side as the Stormcutter came flying in; firing off his torus of fire and half engulfing him in flames, just as Valka used this distraction to stab her staff's spikes into his neck. But Drago had an nasty surprise awaiting for her as he began to charge up his golden death beam before firing it across diagonally, forcing the former wife of Stoick to hook onto Cloudjumper's talons to escape the attack; dropping down afterwards to continue chipping away at the chunks of burned flesh with each swing of her staff, ripping his clothing and even tearing off some of his armor as they fell to the ground
He then swung his bullhook overhead before swinging downwards with Valka holding her staff horizontally to block the attack, using the hook ends to grab onto the scythe blade and disarm him swiftly; however the Dragon God had then latched onto her by the neck and raised her from the ground, rearing back his burned skull and headbutting her against the ground as he summoned his bullhook back to him. Valka had jumped backwards to avoid being kicked backwards as she began to sprint, running up close to him before jumping and throwing her staff downwards against the Madgod; landing an spinning kick against his body which had done very little to the warlord as he unleashed another rain of meteors down onto the arena, all by stabbing his bullhook into the ground as the earth shook with every meteor that made their blasting impact. He then came sprinting towards her with his speed before grabbing her by the chest, jumping once again into the air before grabbing her legs and throwing her towards the ground; the impact shaking the earth as Valka lied an little injured but she was not out of this fight just yet. Eret came running up to him before Drago smacked him away with his rib claws, once against exposing his black and heartless soul before an Dragon Root Arrow had been fired into his weakpoint; having him roar out in pain as Viggo held an Dragon Hunter Elite's crossbow towards him, having enough of this madness before leaving the scene before anyone could react. But Bludvist had only chuckled mockingly and asked the Knights: "Your pathetic efforts are no match for the Dragon God, I told you before that I alone control the Dragons; soon your Chief will be dead!"
HTTYD
Drayko had been forbidden to fight due to his injuries and that he had not gotten used to walking with his right leg prosthetic, this order was given to him by Arson as he wants him to recover a little bit beforehand; but Drayko would have none of it all as he simply stood up and walked towards Drago, with Toothless following behind him with Chainsmoke and Brimstone backing him up. As he now stood his ground against the Dragon God himself, Drago Bludvist had begun to speak with him:
"You are just an Hooligan, just as pathetic and weak as the day you have betrayed your Tribe before you deserted and left them for dead in the dust; all for the sake of your Night Fury. Pathetic, just like how you killed yourself just so I wouldn't have control over the one you called an brother!" Drago taunted, he had come to understand beforehand that he was the son of Valka due to his striking similarities; but also taunting him about just how desperate he was to have Toothless back, knowing that he did not want to fight him
"I am not the same man who shot an arrow through his skull just to take Toothless back from you that day, the monster that you have given birth to has returned to KILL YOU!" Drayko declared as ignited Inferno and brought his Shield out on his left flank, pointing his flaming blade towards him as he got into his combat stance
"You do NOT know what a REAL monster looks like, Drayko!" Drago Bludvist roared in front of his face, he reared into himself and because of his intestines had been cut off by the likes of Raijah and Hookfang; he painfully sprouted out an arachnid like legs from his back with blood gushing outwards, the ends of the legs being slightly curved scythe like blades as he now stood with them above the ground. "Your road to uniting man and Dragonkind ends now!" He pointed two of his bladed arachnid legs towards him from the sides, Drayko was not intimidated in the very slightest his eyes narrowed; ready to finish him off once and for all
Drago Bludvist came forwards slowly before swinging his bullhook to Drayko's right flank, which he had defended against with his Shield before he attempted to launch him up to the air with an uppercut slash; jumping backwards to avoid the attack as he swung Inferno against his spider like legs that he used to block his swings, slashing against the bones with the flaming blade and stabbing him in the leg before launching an spinning roadhouse kick to the the side. But Bludvist had then launched all four his bladed spider legs against him, forcing him to block with his Shield as he parried against them and threw him off; allowing him to sprint up to the God and land in an few swings of Inferno against his chest, making him spill out his blood onto the ice that turned red. Toothless had leapt forward like an jaguar and sank his claws deeply across his skull to neck, firing off an Plasma Bolt to send him staggering backwards before smacking him across to the side with his tail afterwards
Murderous the Magnificent II came charging forward with his sword drawn, stabbing into Drago's chest before ramming against up to the wall of ice; punching him in the chest and face multiple times with his brute strength, even taking out his knife and stabbing his black and heartless soul rapidly. Drago kicked him away and punched him across the face before the many men and women of the Murderous Tribe swarm him from all sides, using his bullhook to sweep them all away from him as he continued forwards to continue his battle with Drayko; but Magnificent II had spun his sword vertically like a wheel against him and thrusted forwards to his chest, climbing onto him and removing his blade before jumping and slashing down on him. This had left an deep gash from his head down to his waist, but this alone did not stop him in the slightest, no matter how grievously weakened he was; stumbling backwards against the might and power of the Murderous Tribe
The Defenders of the Wing had aimed their bows from and drew back their arrows, ready to strike down the Madgod; they then fired as their arrows sailed across the air and stabbed into Drago's back, diverting his attentions to the archers who had fired from an distance. This allowed Throk to run up with his back turned and stab his axe deeply into him, having him rear backwards before Mala pierced her katana through his heartless soul; taking it back out before swiftly swinging her blade against him, slashing against his bullhook before getting into an weapons lock. But while she had distracted him on the front, Drayko had stabbed his hand in order to disarm him; before really deciding to make him feel the pain by pulling very hard on his fingernail, with it sliding out with an gut squishing and squeaking sound before he fully ripped it off with it's tendrils still attached to it. "ARRUUGHH! You little bastard!" (A/N: This part came from God of War III where you ripped off Crono's fingernail, admit it; it's the part that you were all really painfully wincing at when fighting the Titan himself to get the Omphalos Stone, so you can get the Nemesis Whip from Hephaestus)
Drago gained the upperhand and parried Mala before sending her slamming against the wall, with Throk throwing his axe right into his left eye; shutting off all communication with it as he roared out in agony and pain, the blood gushing out as Throk ran to land an flying kick against him. But was instead grabbed by the leg and thrown over to where Mala was, as he brought his arms into himself and spread them out; unleashing another electrical shockwave attack that had sent his attackers away from him, now focusing on Drayko and Toothless alone. The former had switched to his battlestaff and spun it around himself to fight, knowing that he had not really used this weapon as much as he did; but neither did he use the Bangle of Chrono Quicksilver as he felt like that won't work against the Dragon God. Running forward with his battlestaff in hand, he swung the serrated blade part of the staff against his bullhook; striking the scythe like blade and creating sparks from whenever they scraped against the each other, creating an echoing tone to the ears of the captured prisoners of the Dragon Hunters
But it was during this final battle that Mikekolt had pounced onto him like an jaguar with his Marauder Scimitar, stabbing into his forehead and piercing through his brain; with the Dragon God struggling to remove the Owl Gut Warrior from himself; when he slashed downwards from his face to his waistline's border, Drago had enough of interference from the other allies as he wanted to focus on fighting and killing Drayko and Toothless. He grabbed him by the throat before smashing him against the floor, increasing the preasure with each slam he made before Rainserviper had come flying towards him; spear tackling Drago as he held him by the jaws and ultimately rescuing his rider. However he grabbed him by the tail and began to bludgeon him from the walls and against the floor, he jumped onto the Whispering Death before proceeding to beat him down to an bloody pulp; worse than the Dragon Marauders until he slashed him across with his side with his bullhook: "NOOO!" Mikekolt yelled as he rushed in and took Rainserviper away from Drago to keep him from any further damage, carrying him on his back as Drago returned to focus onto fighting his nemesis
Drayko stabbed his battlestaff's serrated blade through like an spear before throwing him off to the other side, spinning it to his back as Toothless charged up another Plasma Bolt; his spines glowing and his so was his throat inside, becoming brighter and brighter as his brother continued to clash against the Madgod himself. Once his brother had taken him by the neck and held him back with his battlestaff, Toothless began to fire off two Plasma Bolts towards the Dragon God; the first happened to blow open his chest with the claws being blasted away upon impact, and the second happened to really blow bigger chunks of his blood and bones out from his body. Drago Bludvist really was now on the verge of death as although he may be an God now, he had continued to ignore the fact and truth that Gods like him overestimate themselves; they can be killed even by the hands of an mortal, but Drayko is merely just an broken and worthless warrior who is not to be trusted by who he thinks is his allies when the Devils he loved will soon rain their betrayal onto him. That is if it was true to say the least for their loyalty towards him was unquestionable
Drayko stabbed his battlestaff into the ground and returned to using Inferno, igniting his flaming sword as he swung his blade to the slides; clashing against Drago's bullhook as they struck against one another's bodies, with their own blood gushing out from the scars that were made with each swing of each other's respective blades. Getting into another blade lock with each other as Inferno and Bludvist's bullhook, both Drayko and Drago pushed against each other; although this time they were pushing upwards and downwards against each other. They stared each other down and by putting so much strength behind their weapons, Inferno had begun to make the bullhook's staff glow in an heated temper as steam began to rise from where they met; Drayko had raised his right leg and pushed forward powerfully, throwing Drago off as he prepared to end this all. Having stumble backwards one last time, Drayko stabbed his right leg into his upperbody before slashing diagonally downwards; grabbing onto his bullhook before ripping it out of his hands, taking it for himself before plunging it forwards towards his black and heartless soul. Spearing through him as massive bucket-loads of his red blood had spilled out onto the ground, now the Dragon God was going to die and nothing was going to save him now; his conquest ends right here as both Drayko and Toothless ran up to Drago as they both jumped up, and slashed downwards on all four of his spider like legs. As the Dragon God roared out in his painful agony of the fate he was sealed with, Drayko along with Toothless and the Knights of the Dragon Riders stood before him; their allies and their Dragons were ready to deal the finishing blow on him, no matter however he may fall in the end
"ARRRAUGGHH! You have brought onto us nothing but ruin and destruction in my journey to ascend to the heavens as the Dragon God, your resistance means very little to us; but remember Drayko: It was I who has come warn you that the Dragons are not to be trusted in your favor by befriending them, they nothing but beasts who must be dominated and broken with fear before they are tamed. Everything you have come to know will die in flames over the power of the mighty Dragon God who stands before you, as I surpass the Emperor himself!" Drago Bludvist declared as he raised his hands spreaded out towards the sun in the dark and mostly cloudy sky, his voice gurgling with blood and mucus as it spewed out from his jawless skull; but these would soon be the final words that he would speak as Drayko and Toothless would deal the final blow with this remark:
"Emperor...? Yeah, now here's your throne!" Drayko aimed his crossbow Shield as Toothless prepared to fire an fully charged Plasma Bolt, the other Titans like Green Death and the Black King; including Rainserviper had all prepared to fire off their firepower, with Drayko's eyes narrowed as they all fired all at once towards the false Dragon God
Drago Bludvist was blasted all at once by the firepower that bombarded him gruesomely, but not as so much as when Drayko Ryder came sprinting over with an dual pair of Inferno swords at his disposal; diagonally slashing upwards as he reappeared from behind, the X-crossed slash immediately sprouting outwards into the skies as the Dragon God's roaring warcy breached out to above. Drayko and Toothless had done the impossible: they had both murdered the Dragon God, as he fell forward towards the earth and shattered away like pieces of glass; the nightmare was finally over and this time, nothing could resurrect the tyrannical warlord himself. An explosion of golden sunlight going upwards towards the sky had blown through the wind all around them, the dark clouds above in the mostly cloudy weather had the sun fully shined it's rays down onto the bloodcloaked Drayko and Toothless. Finally, Drago Bludvist was no more and the battle has been won in the favor of the Knights and their allies
In response to this victory, they had all celebrated with an victory roar into the air, the fate of the God was now sealed and the Dragon Hunters would suffer from this devastating blow to their operations; the madness has come to an end and revenge has never been so coldly served, for the sins of the man who had ascended to the heavens but has fallen into the darkest depths of the Underworld beckoning below. All who were sacrificed by the Self-Proclaimed Dragon God, were now avenged as from above; Empress Jacqueline smiled on them all, now with Emperor Dretzymiro by her side and their son who was their prince. But as Drayko soon disappeared on the scene with Toothless, they took off secretly to another part of the area with him saying this in his cold and introverted voice: "Let's go all the way on the road to hell and back" especially as Vixen jumped into his chest and yipped all the way as they flew
Heather in the meantime watched him fly off to another area as Dagur stood by his side, Elder Custos had arrived on her Thunderdrum; approaching her as she knew of the fate about her daughter: "You must not worry about what my daughter has become, dear; she has lived an long and lonesome life, but everything is just as it once was with Emperor Dretzymiro. Drayko will return just as he once did before..." She stated as Heather looked at his retreating form before taking an look at Drayko's coin that was given to her, only to find an unexpected reveal
"Oh lord..." Heather looked down at the coin given to her
"Something wrong, sister?" Dagur asked, ready to solve the issue right away
"Both sides of the coin... they're Tails" She revealed as they both had the same engraving, but realized something else: "Wait a minute..."
The memory of their coin flip to which of them shall go inside the gates and fight off Drago returned to her, with Drayko flipping the coin and catching it as he smacked it down onto his arm; revealing the answer as... Tails!
"He tricked me!" She smiled
"That little trickster's got more in him than you know, sister" Dagur stated, knowing that Drayko was more than an filthy fighter. She flipped the now revealed dual sided coin into the air as the sunlight shined on it, with Speedy and his pack crowing out in their victory against the Dragon Hunters in the distance as they ran across the seas back to Speed Stinger Island; knowing that they will soon meet again...
In the meantime Mikekolt loomed over Rainserviper as he got down near him, stroking his scales and soothing his quills as he spoke to him: "You've done well, Rain; but it looks like it's time for you to go with the Knights because I know their medic will take care of you. Remember this: It will be lonely without have you around, but we will meet again and we will be together; always..." Rainserviper nuzzled his cheek as he was taken by Skullcrusher and Tidalwing as Arson the Medic would tend to his grievous and severe injuries inflicted onto him, but Drayko assured him that he will be returned to him within five months; which he nodded and left to be alone by himself
Maria the Huntress had approached him after Mikekolt left with Drayko meeting face to face with her, she placed her hands onto his shoulder guards before kissing him right here and there; to which Drayko had returned her feelings as he embraced her, sharing this moment just as Fishlegs had done the same to Heather to celebrate their victory against the Dragon Hunters. Whom of which were being escorting onto their own ships as they were now imprisoned on, with the Pendulum Guardians stepping aboard; the sun rising higher and higher above the horizon
But while Draconia, the Murderous Tribe, the Defenders of the Wing, the Owl Gut Tribe on Mikekolt's behalf and the Berserker Tribe all celebrated in their victory against Drago Bludvist and the Dragon Hunter Army; the same could not be established for one Tribe who had lost from their battles instead of thrived, for the sorrowful news about the death of Traitor Johann had been delivered to the Vikings who all mourned his death. They held an memorial service to their fallen trader as now, they could receive no more supplies for what they had needed the most; he was an great friend but also an great seafaring sailor who would always be remembered for his efforts, unaware of his treacherous acts and his record of assassinated merchants he himself had killed. But as the sun set down onto the horizon, Stoick, Gobber, Spitelout and Gothi had stood in the upper level of the Great Hall; with the installed large clear windows all around them peaking down it's light onto the room. The news of Drayko's victory against Drago Bludvist had also reached the Archipelago, but the Hairy Hooligans were now afraid of what he could do to them; for now that the madman is dead, he has control over all of his Dragons and even his Army
"Now I have truly underestimated Drayko Ryder for the last time, he has managed to bring down Drago Bludvist and now he has conquered his Army; what will he do next, but more importantly: what will he do to all of us?" Stoick fearfully asked himself, now afraid of how Drayko is becoming an rising threat to the Hairy Hooligans Tribe and to Berk itself
"Calm down, I'm sure that it was just an little rumor that someone's been makin' up; I mean tha's gotta' be an one hell of an victory just to earn for someone whose waged war against him, I even wonder how he did it" Gobber wondered but was interrupted by Gothi
"Victory, you call it Gobber?" Gothi asked, looking both sad and solemn on her face; holding her staff as she sat down. "That was no victory you speak off, the Gods have casted their favor on him but are angry with us yet again" It was then that Spitelout stepped out of the shadows and into the sunlight of the sky, bathing on him entirely
"The foundations of his inner demons is now broken, the shadows of judgement have fallen and vengeance has now driven him forth: The Draconia Wars have begun and there is no returning from the dark road that he has taken..." Spitelout had his eyes closed, narrowed as he re-opened them before leaving the room; secretly taking Kingstail and flying out of the Island
Those haunting words had only made Stoick look up in fear slowly, there was no mocking him now after what he had done; he was becoming an rising threat to Berk and an rising threat to her people, they must set sail for the voyage and find Draconia right now if they are to stop this man from ripping Berk off the map and off the face of the Archipelago itself. Gobber looked at him with fear as well as they both looked out the window, this may be the end for them all; but they will be prepared and they will fight until the very end, survive or until thy kingdom come
Back at Draconia where the Black King's Sanctuary was mostly finished by the Bewilderbeast himself now tamed by Drayko, there were many Pendulum Guardians and their Dragons down below who were drawn up in an formation; moving forwards in near files to climb onto the ramps of the liberated brigantines which sported the new crest on the sails, taking off into the seas as they were very thick with brigantines everywhere redesigned to act has an defensive naval fleet to defend Draconia. Their weapons were now re-purposed and any remnant of the Dragon Hunters and Bludvist's Army were no more, everything was redone from the scratching earth up
General Scorpio, Jafaris Thornwhip, Raedwit the Illusionist and the New Riders including Tubison all looked down at the square below atop of the balcony; overlooking them all as they solemnly watched the Pendulum Guardians and their Dragons march upwards, boarding the fleet as this was just the beginning of the Draconia Wars that was bound to have an outbreak on the horizon
But while they were all preparing for the war on the horizon, Toothless and Aythro stood together on the Landing Platform as they both nuzzled one another; now embracing each other as they licked both of their faces, showing their love for one another as Drayko watched on. Although Toothless looked towards him and flicked his head towards them, before taking him by the hand as they both stood together; watching on in the distance as Drayko looked down and revealed his prosthetic right leg
"Now we're two of an kind, Tóðléas" Drayko stated in Dragonese
"Do you think it's time now Æðelin?" Toothless asked him
Drayko nodded as his brother and his mate both left the Landing Platform, walking down the hall as they were well on their way with the sunset below the horizon of the gold and bronze mostly cloudy sky shining it's rays of the sun one last time; reaching the locked double doors and the two brothers entering inside the Throne Room, with Aythro following them inside. They walked along the untouched carpet and looked all around them as the windows had it's rays bathing on them both, with the doors closed behind them and finally stopping as they reached the throne
"This is the throne of Draconia for the Man and his Night Fury" Drayko spoke out
"Let us take our place upon it now, for there is nothing more for us to do" Toothless finished
Drayko took the crown sitting on the throne and placed it atop his head, now wearing it as he took his seat with his brother; Toothless the Night Fury coiling all around him as his underbelly was shown, bipedally standing by his side as the Knight placed his right leg prosthetic to rest onto his left leg. With his hands closed clentched into fists and his elbows standing against the walls on the arm rests, his eyes revealed to be the same as his brother's; now taking the title of the Dragon God and his Bullhook that he now had resting above his throne, both of which are an reminder to whom the Æðeling of Éðelléas Segenum or the Prince of Exiled Legends in Norse is. Vixen, the Fox Kit had also joined her two friends as they prepared to rule
From that moment onwards and forwards throughout the rest of the time of the Norse Age, whenever the Dragons may fly into the madness and bloodbathing powerhouse of war for the cause of liberation against those who were being used by the Dragon Hunters or for those who sought out revenge for being left for dead by those who they thought they had once trusted as an ally; they were being led by under the watchful guardian of an Half-Darkblood mortal who had done the impossible: to murder a Self-Proclaimed Dragon God alongside his Night Fury, both of whom had become the new King of Dragons...
KNIGHTS OF THE DRAGON RIDERS
CURSE OF THE EMPEROR'S SWORD
The second installment of the Knights of the Dragon Riders Trilogy has been completed, this has been more than an wonderful time for me to write no matter all of the sacrifices I've made and the rewrites I have had to post; I want you to know that the reason I write this trilogy is because I first imagined this storyline in my dreams after reading Protection of the Nightfury by EmeraldNecko more than once, trying to imagine my own version of many of the events that have happened in the story. But I never expected that I would end up giving this Trilogy so much Lore behind anything that I write into these stories, given that I have put more effort into here than any other of my stories. I hope you have enjoyed this story and I want you to leave your Reviews weather be it from Author or Guests, those who offer nothing but flames and trolls will not be accepted as you know about my problem with those who don't like my stories; but read them regardless just to be assholes. Oh and I totally forgot about Vixen in this Chapter, fuck me for neglecting her as I decided to make an edit here
Now then I really hope you have read this story all the way through because I'm happy with how it turned out to be in the end, filling in what was left behind and making an new road for the future stories to come; it's just like I'm writing my own AU that's become an franchise of it's own. Remember this warning and suggestion to all flamers and trolls: Don't like it, don't fuckin' read it at all; otherwise, Feel free to Review and Until we meet again for I will return... but so will Drayko, Toothless and Mikekolt who has his own story to tell in "School of Dragons: Titan Uprising"
