Chapter 1
Ninjas were training on a mat on one of Drago Bludvist's dreadnoughts. Each ninja was trained in the martial arts. But his best ninja was a defective from Berk. His name was Hiccup Harridous Haddock. But he earned a new name. Raza Igaul. He chose the name to strike fear to his enemy. Berk. His Night Fury was loyal and hated the Berkians too. He wore a black shaded metal armor. His tail fin had Drago's crest on. The ninjas were training unarmed combat. Raza slid over one ninja's back and elbowed him in the shin. He roundhouse kicked another one in the face and hit another one with his palm right in the gut. Drago nodded. "Good. That was excellent my sons.". (Drago had four sons, he adopted Hiccup. But the blood brothers treated him like their own. The sons were. Eret, Dagur, Viggo and Ryker.). All five brothers bowed. But they patted Raza on the back. "You are the strongest Raza, and I am proud to call you blood." Viggo complimented. Ryker shook his hand. Eret wasn't very comfortable with him. He was actually jealous. Ryker was jealous too but he placed his respect to Raza first. Dagur bear hugged him. (The family guy.).
Raza then tried to breathe only to get his lungs squeezed. Dagur did let go and Drago handed Raza a very special sword. On the hilt was his name scratched on. Drago then knelt. "General Igaul.". The brothers all knelt. But Eret threw a fit. "You chose him! I am your eldest! He isn't even blood related.". Drago then stood up. "I chose him for he chose family above his pride, unlike you son.". Eret then stormed for his cabin.
(Berk.).
Gobber, the local blacksmith was working on a few swords. Sighing he looked Hiccup's last invention. The retractable sword. A blade that can fold up! He was thinking on the last things he said to him.
(Flashback.).
"I trust you had a reason, I saw what you're capable of, but if it isn't wanted here, then you should go and find a way.". A wounded beaten Hiccup sniffed. "Thank you Gobber. Toothless and I will travel North to wait until the heat dies down.". Gobber giving a worried sigh. "I understand laddie. Good luck.". Hiccup smiled.
(End of flashback.).
Holding it he gave small tears. Next second Astrid Hofferson came in. Her axe was stump. "Sharpening please.". Gobber and Astrid were the only ones to miss Hiccup. As Gobber was sharpening the axe Astrid was looking at some of Hiccup's old inventions. "I miss him.". Gobber nodded. "Me too. He was a fine lad. I don't understand, it's been seven years, where is he?".
(Drago's fleet.).
Raza was working on his dragon's armor, he was improving it to be stronger but lighter. Then a soldier came in. "Lord Igaul! His lordship seeks your presence.". As he arrived Drago was standing at his desk. "Son, we attack Berk, you're leading the assault.". Raza smiles evilly. "Yes father.". As he exited the deck he went to his dragon. He signaled his brothers and told him what to do. "Brothers, we attack Berk, Dagur, you lead the first wave of men, Ryker, Viggo, you lead a battalion of troops on the east, Eret, you attack from the south. Questions?". Eret lifted his hand. "Why south?". Raza smiled. "The south is the last place they expect for us to attack. You have a very important role. Make it count.". Eret nodded. "First thing we agree on brother.".
At Berk Astrid was throwing an axe. She was trying to calm down. She was thinking back to when Hiccup was a shy but kind kid. She was the one to treat him with respect. "I wish he will come home. Please whatever god there is, please bring him home.".
(Five days later.).
Fishlegs was walking down the beach when he saw a ship on the horizon, but what shocked him was that there were men riding dragons. He ran as fast his legs could carry him, running to the chief's house. "Chief! Enemy ships on the horizon, and there are men riding dragons!". Hearing it Stoick responded fast. Grabbing his hammer and shield. Fishlegs blew the horn. All Berk's warriors were heading for the beach.
Raza was spying from his spyglass. "They took the bait. Eret, you know what to do.". Eret nodded and headed with some of the boats to the back of the island.
Astrid was leading the main assault. Her axe and shield ready. Snotlout with his sword and shield at her side. "Perfect first date, am I right babe?". Astrid chose to ignore it. But got a surprise when a black dragon flew above them. She recognized it, but where? But then a man in black armor with a hood covering his face jumped of the dragon. All Astrid could see was his chin, well bearded chin to be technical. The man pulled out a sword on it were very strange symbols on it. Words? In another language? Has to be. The hooded man attacked. Snotlout was first to respond. Swinging his sword around for no reason. The hooded man ducked he collided swords with Snotlout but only knocking him unconscious. That's when an whole army landed on the beach. The hooded man looked at his enemies. "Assemble.". Was all he said. The whole army charged. Berk and Drago's army collided in a blood spilling battle. Astrid attacked the hooded man. She was fierce with her swing, but this guy was very dodgy. He atleast killed two Berkians. He jumped over Astrid pulling his sword. Astrid tried again but got sidestepped and landed on her face. The man waited. She stood up, seeing he didn't attack. That confused her. "You had a chance to kill me.". The man smirked. "I fight with honor.". Pulling a knife he threw it at Astrid who ducked in time. "Missed." She taunted. The man smirked again. "I never miss.". She turned around to see a tower falling to her direction. She jumped out of the way but caused ten Berkian warrior's lives. She was getting purely raged. "You're gonna regret this.". The man smirked. "I don't think I will. You better look behind you.". She looked behind. More enemy soldiers came running with four more hooded men. Berk was conquered. She failed. Everyone was getting locked in cages. Astrid was thrown into a cage with Snotlout, Fishlegs, the twins, Gobber and Heather. Stoick was brought before the hooded men. Raza stepped forward. "Stoick the Vast, we conquered your village, do you yield?". Stoick spitted on the man. "I would rather die.". Raza sighed. Pulling his knife he held it to Stoick's throat. "You know what, I am in a good mood today, throw him with the rest.". As Stoick was thrown in he eyed Raza. "What's the name of the man I wish to kill?". The hooded men gasped. But Raza gave a disrespectful bow. "Raza Igaul. Son of Drago Bludvist. My brothers. Dagur the Deranged, Eret son of Eret, Viggo and Ryker Grimborn.". Stoick wasn't amused, but he was shocked about Drago Bludvist.
"That man you call father is a mad man, with a conscious of mercy.". Raza laughed. "Indeed. But he's family.". He walked to his tent. Eret was eyeing Astrid. "Bring the blonde with the red skirt to my tent, she will be joining me this weekend.". Astrid was getting scared. But what surprise her was when Dagur grabbed Eret's wrist. "You must speak with Raza about it.". Eret was getting impatient. "Fine, bring him.". Raza arrived. "Brother, I wish for permission to let the blonde Berkian be accompany me tonight.". Astrid was practically begging him to say no. Her eyes said it. Raza looked at her. "Which one?" he said it on purpose. Eret looked confused, seeing Ruffnut too. "The one with the skirt.". Raza was for some reason feeling sorry for her. "No. I don't give you permission.". Eret was no fuming. Grabbing his brother's wrist. "I said, permission.". Raza only stabbed his brother in the gut. As his brother collapse on the ground he walked to the cage. "Consider yourself lucky." He mocked to Astrid. He was walking to his tent when Astrid cried out. "What are you gonna do with us?". Raza turned around with a very familiar glare to Astrid. But she couldn't place it. "Make sure you pay.". With that he marched to his tent. Inside of it his dragon was sitting, giving a gummy smile. Raza smiled. "I know my friend. I know.".
