Shimmer (OC)

I were walking on the beach among all of the destruction the battle has left behind, I were on my way to the now dead King, it is a terrible loss, a crime to the world, to lose such a majestic dragon.

I stopped in front of the King, I had allot of sorrow in my heart, and also allot of rage and anger, I knew that this was the work of dragon hunters,
They must have somehow managed to capture another Bewilderbeast and managed to control it,
Force it to do their bidding.

I stood there for a long time, oblivious of my surroundings, I did not know what to do, and where to go,

Storm broke the silence…

"We should get shelter, it will be dark soon, we know not what might still be out there",
"okay lets go, I know the perfect place to stay",

I looked at storm and saw the concern in her eyes,

I took flight and went into the nest,
I landed on the rock ledge where I used to stay,
I saw no dragons in the nest, not even the baby scuttleclaws, I went to the ledge where I left my book, it's gone, I panicked a bit, where's my book?

I looked around, nothing,
I decided to look where Valka stayed,
I looked around to see if I could find anything, I saw my book on her table in the far corner, I took my book and the bag it comes along with,

I saw the Rumblehorn sniffing around the place, I asked
"What are you sensing?"

"Humans, about four, and three other dragons, I don't recognize the one dragon, it's not one I have ever smelled before",

He went to the one opening to the cave that leads to the outside,

"I found something, it's that strange dragons scale"

I went over to him and saw a black dragon scale on the floor,
there are not many dragons with black scales like these,
I looked in my book at all of the types of dragons that might have such scales, and found none,
I looked at some of those that I haven't added in my book, those I only have descriptions of, then I saw it. The night fury, its description matches that of the scale, we found,

It can't be, they are all dead, killed to extinction, but how, how did one survive, for this long,

I took the scale and placed it into my book,
I looked around and my eyes landed on a rolled up piece of paper, I went and picked it up,
It's a map of the whole archipelago, With a small island named Berk in the center, and the nest far to the North east,

"What is that your holding there?" I looked up at Storm, and smiled,
"this is a map, we are here", I pointed to an island on the map, accidently poking a hole into the map with my claw.
She looked curiously at the map for a moment before she went to the nearby wall to lay down to sleep.

I looked at the map, studying it, deciding on where to go next,
I looked over to Storm and the Rumblehorn, they are both asleep,

I rolled up the map and placed it into my bag,
I was about to go to sleep when I heard something outside,

I went outside quietly, trying not to wake the others,
I looked down to the beach and saw a small campfire, and sitting by the campfire was a dragon hunter, looking to be injured, I went down to the beach careful not to alert the man, I went behind a large pile of ice before the man saw me, I saw my scales start to blend in with the environment almost becoming completely invisible, I decided to peak out to look at the man and saw another man approaching the camp, he was also a dragon hunter, he looked around to see if there's something out there before sitting down on a broken piece of a catapult,

I went closer to hear what they were talking about,
I were so hidden that I could stand right behind one of them and they would not see me.

The one said,
"…..they left us here to die, how do you think we are supposed to get off of this island without any boat or ship, And Drago took all of the dragons with him to…."
The second man interrupted him,
"stop moaning before I slip this knife down your throat", he pulled a dagger out of his boot,
both wentquiet,

I decided to get more information from them, no matter what it takes.

I came up behind the one hunter and wrapped my tail around him restraining him, at the same time revealing myself to the other,
the other man grabbed a blow pipe and blew a dart at me, the dart struck me, having no effects on me I pulled the dart out and threw it away, the man then panicked and tried to grab a sword, but I caught him by the leg, holding him upside-down, both men were frightened, mumbling nonsense,
I took the knife from the man's boots just as he was about to go for it,

I threw both men against a wall of ice, I went ahead and like last time talked to them through telepathy,

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Where are all the dragons? And where's Valka?!"

Both the men's eyes widened and held their heads in pain, but said nothing other than there incoherent mumbling.
"Answer me!" I screamed releasing a bright blue blast of energy right above their heads, showering them in ice shards and powder from the ice wall.

"W-we work for D-Drago bludvist, we were here t-to capture the d-dragons", answered the one man

"The Drago and the bewilderbeast went south south-west to Berk more than a day ago, and the Dragon riders followed shortly after them on baby dragons", answered the second man

I was at this point very angry, and the men knew it,

"And what about Valka!"

They flinched at my words
"Valka t-the dragon lady? She went along with the dragon riders after the others",

I calmed a bit down, knowing that Valka's still alive, But the question still stands, Who's the dragon riders they are talking about?

"Who are these dragon riders you speak of? And who's their leader",

The second man answered, "we don't know, they are from Berk…"

The first said "yeah, they are from Berk and their leader was Stoick the vast before he was killed, his son is the dragon master, but not much of a master!" they both started chuckling and immediately fell silent when I gave them a growl,

A piece of ice fell behind me and I looked around to see that it came from the wall of ice,
The second man jumped up and grabbed a sword and was preparing to attack me, I noticed and released another bright blue blast, leaving both of the men motionless, the blast pushed me back almost a foot.

I went back to the others and looked at the map again, I looked at Berk and saw that it is very far away. I decided to get some rest, it is going to be a long trip.

The next morning after everyone was awake I told them what I have found, and what I was planning,
The Rumblehorn did not like my idea but after some convincing agreed,
Storm only gave a slight grunt of annoyance but did not object.

After resting and refreshing ourselves we took flight, and flew fast in a south-western direction.

We were flying for some time before we a storm brewing ahead, we knew that it is too dangerous to go through a storm, especially a large one like this one.

We flew until we found an island to rest on, we flew around the island looking for a place to rest,
I saw some buildings on the island, the buildings was brightly colored and looked a bit burned but still in a good condition, it looks there were an attack on the island but some of the damage comes from the islands volcano, because there were dry lava,

The place is abandoned, there are no one here, except for a big black-grey dragon,
Then I saw it, it's not one dragon, its hundreds of smaller ones.

I knew that they posed no threat,

We landed on one of the decks of a building, it had a door made from some strange metal with some symbols on them, Dragon class symbols,
we opened the door to reveal a stable for dragons, but no dragons,
we explored the rest of the base,
This was a dragon riders base, I went into one of the destroyed buildings, it had an odd smell to it, almost like an old forge
I found a folded mass of paper, I opened the paper carefully not to tear it,
it was a map, a bit smaller than Valka's map but with more information, and names for some of the islands.

I saw this island on the map, and saw its name, this island is called Dragons Edge,
I looked at the storm to the south and south-west, I know that this storm will last for a few days,
and looked west, it's clear to the west, I looked on the map and saw that there are a few islands to the west, but I don't know how far the storm goes,
There's only one way to find out, we are going west, west to Melody island

Valka(POV)

It have been three days since the attack on Berk,
Three days since Drago's defeat,
And three days since my son, Hiccup became the chief of Berk,

Berk is now covered in ice, and we are slowly starting to rebuild Berk,
It all look too strange to me, I have been away from Berk for twenty years,
allot has changed in all of that time, more awaits us all ahead,

I saw Cloudjumper look at me worried, and touched his side assuring him that everything is okay.
I thought back to the event of the battle between the two Bewilderbeast's, and of how Stoick died,
And how the boat burned with him lying on the boat, as he passed on to Valhalla,

The memory brought tears to my eyes, to lose someone close to your heart after so many years, to regain it and lose it again very cruel.

"let's go inside Cloudjumper",

We both went into the great hall to join the other people of Berk.

Shimmer (OC)

We all woke early, that morning, we readied ourselves to depart, I wanted to get past this coming storm before it's too late, or else we will be stranded, we took of an hour after sunrise heading west to an island called Melody island,

We were flying over the ocean in a westerly direction when I saw a small island, I did not know if it was melody island or something else but we went over to that island anyway for a short rest,
we arrived to the island and I noticed something at small pond,
it was a light blue dragon drinking from the pond,

My curiosity got the better of me and I went closer to look what dragon it is,
I accidently stepped on a dry stick that were concealed underneath a pile of leaves, the dragon froze and looked at me, it stood there for a moment, concealed behind the brush, I inched closer slowly, hoping to see what dragon it is, and just as I did that it came out of the brush, it was a flightmare, it immediately sprayed a blue mist at me, I only had enough time to pull up my wings to deflect the mist, my wings shimmered a bright green color, and at the same time I felt my wings get a little stiff before the effects went away, just as I was about to look back at the flightmare, it took of flying away.
How strange to see one here.

After getting ourselves a drink, we continued flying further west until we came into sight of a very rocky island with a bit of plant life, and a forest,

We landed on the beach, shortly before the sun reached the horizon, we quickly caught something to eat, not much but we had some chance on the wing earlier, when a school of fish tried to jump clear of a sea shocker,

We rested here for the night before setting of for breakneck bog,
I took the first watch, letting the others sleep, but to be honest, I could not sleep if I know that we are close to finding out if Valka is still alive and if she is at Berk or not, and to find out where the dragons went,
I also worried that it might be too late and or….

A strange sound pulled me out of my thoughts, it was like a song, a melody, a very pleasant sound,
very compelling….
I broke away from the trance of the sound, just to see that I'm not the only one being effected by the strange sound, it was hard to resist the urge to follow the sound, but I were able to resist, but barely,

But the others are not so lucky, they both woke up and started to fly in the direction of the song.
I then knew that there is something wrong with this island

What is making this sound…. Son…. Melody?

I decided to follow, but I stayed alert for any danger.
We headed past the trees and into a big open valley full of mountains, upon mountains of dragon bones,

I looked up to see a large amber like structure in the middle of the valley,
It's a Death song nest,
I was just about to stop the other two when the sound stopped, and a ball of liquid amber hit the Rumblehorn and then another hit Storm.

I suddenly dived down just in time to avoid most of the amber,
I wheeled around and barely got out of there before almost being hit by another blast of amber.

I landed among the trees in hope of not being followed.
I knew I had to act fast, or else they would become that dragons meal
looking at my tail I saw that the tip was covered with amber,
Great, now how am I supposed to get this stuff off.

I blasted a bright yellow torrent of fire at the amber,
the amber melted away, turning almost brown, I then Knew what to do,

I went back, changing my scales to blend in with the environment,
Both of my friends were lying there incased in amber, they were unable to break free,
as I looked over to where the Death song were standing and instead of one, there were two of them,
they were communicating with each other,

I carefully made my way to Storm, she was panicking at this point
not wanting to alert the Death songs to my presence, I decided to talk to Storm as quietly as I could,
"Hey, you okay, hold on I'm going to get you out of here, just don't panic",
The Death songs heard me somehow, I looked over to them just to see one coming my direction,
I knew I had to do something, or else risk being caught.

I fired a Bright blue ball of fire at the approaching dragon, which stumbled him, I saw the other one looking confused, the second Death song shot amber at me and I shot another bright blue ball of fire at it, causing the amber to harden to a point of shattering,

I quickly shot each dragon with a blue ball of mist, exploding into a big cloud of mist, paralyzing them both for a short duration, long enough to get them out of danger,

I melted the amber around the Rumblehorn and Storm, just in time, as the effects started to wear off
we quickly got out of there, going south for Breakneck bog,

We arrived at Breakneck bog a few hours later,
I saw a small cave in the cliff side, and decided to camp there for the rest of the night,
We went into the small empty cave, and as we were about to go to sleep
I saw the Rumblehorn, clearly intending to take watch,
"you need your sleep", he refused to budge,
out of frustration, I decided to seal the entrance of the cave of from the outside,

I went over and sprayed opening with amber, closing it off, making it safe for us to sleep,

We awoke the next day, safe and mostly rested,
I melted the amber wall just enough for us to get out of the cave,

I saw that the storm has caught up with us, and is now nearly directly south of our position, right between us and Berk.
We had no other option than to stay and wait out the storm, however long that might take.

Me and Storm decided to explore the island, hoping to find a fresh water source or something.

We landed near a patch of long grass, near a ship graveyard, but none of the ships had any metal on them left,

Suddenly a loud clang and Storm letting out a sharp scream of pain, I rushed over to see a trap attached to her front leg, I carefully removed the trap from her leg,
The trap was made from wood and bone with a small piece of scrap metal on top, possibly intended for bait, for something.

Storm has a few deep cuts and were bleeding badly,
I knew we have to burn the wounds clean, for fear of diseases or poison, I told her to brace herself, and so she did.
I blew a small torch of flame on the wounds, but instead of burning the wounds, it actually sealed up the wounds a bit, leaving only very shallow cut marks,

How many more surprises are waiting for me?

I felt a drop of water fall on my head, I looked up to see that the storm is upon us,

"We have to hurry back before it gets any worse to the camp before this gets any worse",
She nodded with agreement and we both went back to camp.

But I suddenly got the feeling that we are not alone on this island.
