Hey everyone. Here's chapter 2. To respond to HighTreason25's response, the whole thing with the prophecy was to define who exactly will come to Middle Earth and who they are to expect. I wanted to make a more detailed description too. I looked at most crossovers and noticed that they don't really show anything specific and don't give out any details. They just throw in something and hope for the best. As for the teleporting, you'll probably have to find out. Anyway, enjoy this next chapter.
It was a dark and misty night. Everything was quiet and calm. Fog appeared through the darkness, casting a ghostly glow through the area. And out of the darkness, a orange light appeared. Revealing a guard walking on the deck of two ships that were connected. He patrolled a section of the deck, making sure that there was no disturbance. On the deck, several cages appeared with dragons of many shapes and sizes inside of them. One of the dragons growled at the guard as he passed by.
"Quiet!" he said.
And in doing so, the dragon was forced to obey. For creatures such as these kinds, life was hard since the humans have been putting them in cages. It was something that most have died from. And others tend to suffer greatly if they survive. But they all didn't know that all of that was about to change.
After another block, the guard stops right in his tracks and looks beyond the fog. He sees something very peculiar. A black figure to be exact, just standing there in the mist. Before the guard could move, a blade extends from the right side of the figure. Glowing in flames during the process. Then the figure was revealed to be a man in some kind of dragon armor. He couldn't tell the face of this stranger due to the helmet. Which was very suspicious.
"What are you?" he questioned.
Before he could get a response, the figure brings up his finger and makes a shushing noise. Gesturing the guard to stay quiet. Then, he hears a growl that came from just behind him. He turns around to see a silhouette-like creature just above the cage to the left. He watched as it crawled down the side of the cage. It's back glowed light blue, and the being itself snarled at the guard. That was when he made his move.
He charged at the figure. Swinging his spear in the process. The figure dodges the attack and blocks the guard's second swing he blocks the guard's jab attack with his sword. Pushing the guard back and making him drop his spear. Seeing no other options left, the guard throws his lantern at the figure. Igniting the floor in the seemed like nothing at first, but he ended up squealing for what came next. For the two of them walked through the flames cinematically.
"AH! You're a demon!" he screamed.
The figure then started shushing the guard rapidly. As if he wasn't trying to give away his position.
"No,no, I'm not a demon," he said. "I'm not a demon!"
Then the figure removed his visor and lowered his bandana. Revealing to be the young chieftain Hiccup and his Night Fury Toothless.
"See, I'm just a guy," Hiccup reassured. "Just a guy. Here to rescue these dragons. So, uh-"
"But you walked through fire," the guard interrupted.
"Dragon scales," Hiccup explained. "Dragons shed a lot."
"Oh, I know a demon when I see one," the guard pointed out. "No human legs are that skinny."
He ran in the other direction, but soon came face to face with another dragon. This time though, the dragon was completely on fire. On top was a rider who like Hiccup, was untouched by the flames. The rider was revealed to be Snotlout with his Monstrous Nightmare Hookfang. Who were more careless than their adversaries.
"Think that's a good entrance,"he said "Get a load of me."
Then, he started screaming to the realization that he was on fire, and he jumped off his dragon. Trying to put out the flames. Much to Hiccup's surprise, the guard was still terrified.
"I knew it!"" he shouted. "More demons!"
Before he could talk, Hiccup pinched his nose in annoyance to the only mutton head in the area.
"That's really a nitwitt who forget to fireproof his butt," said Hiccup.
It didn't take Snotlout long to put out the fires. But before he could react any further, a pair of heads appeared from the cage above. On the backs of the heads were twins Ruffnut and Tuffnut with their Hideous Zippleback named dragon Barf and Belch. Who were about to make their move. Barf already spewed out an green gas that spreading through the area. Even around Snotlout. Then Belch started lighting it up with a few sparks. Sadly with Snotlout in there.
"Guys, no," he said as he started fleeing. "Not yet!"
And before he knew it, there was a huge explosion that covered the area that was filled with gas. When the dust cleared, the two of them dismounted their dragon. And revealed themselves to the guard with their Zippleback Armor.
"Behold," said Tuffnut. "Your worst nightmare."
"Behold," Ruffnut copied.
In irritation, Tuff turns back to his sister unpleasant like.
"Along with my sister," he said. "Who insisted on coming."
'That's my intro?" she questioned.
They were about to get into another fight before Hiccup breaks it up.
"Guys,"Hiccup called out. "Too soon. You guys come in too soon."
Then, another rider appeared across the floor from where they were standing. He was the brains of the team and knows a lot about dragons. Aside of his lack of skill and coordination.
"Sorry," he said. "Still getting a hang on my wings."
"Fishlegs, again with the baby,"Hiccup pointed out as he saw the baby Gronckle. "This is a raid."
"I couldn't find a sitter."
Seeing that there was more than one rider, the guard started to panic. Really badly too.
"Demons everywhere," he said. "It's the end of the world!"
And before he knew it, the guard felt a slight kick on the side of his face. He ended up banging his head against a cage and soon dropped to the floor. The person who did so was revealed to be Astrid, who was the strongest and smartest out of the whole group.
"Astrid," said Hiccup. "I had him right where I wanted him."
"And now, he's right where I wanted him," she shot as she pats Hiccup on the shoulder. "Let's get to work."
"Okay, we screwed that up," Hiccup shoots back. "But at least no one else knows we're here."
Then they started getting to work. Hiccup took the first few cages. One of which was holding a female Scuttleclaw. He carefully opens the cage and approaches her silently. The dragon growls at his presence, oblivious to the fact that he's a friend.
"Easy girl," he reassures. "It's okay. We're gonna get you outta here."
The slowly puts his hand out and softly touches her snout. Assuring her that she has nothing to be afraid of. At least for now. At another cage, Fishlegs along with his baby Gronckle find a huge dragon. Which appeared to be a Crimson Goregutter. he squeals in excitement as he opens the cage. Two cages to the right, Ruffnut comes across a dragon that was merely the size of a small dog. She tried to get the cage open, but for some reason it wouldn't open.
Luckily with the help of Astrid, she was able to slide the cage open and set the dragon loose. Everything was going exactly as they planned. But all was said when there was a shout in the air. And before they knew it, hunters came out of every direction and ambushed the group.
"Get the rescued out of here," Hiccup commanded.
Hiccup and Astrid fought off a few hunters. With Hiccup swinging his sword at one hunter, plus kicking him to the side. And Astrid counters another hunter's attack and punches him in the face. He seemed to be quite busy, but was oblivious to the hunter charging at him from behind. Luckily for him, just before he could lend a finger on him, the hunter was rammed away by Toothless.
On the other side, the twins sweep the other hunters off the deck. Stating that it's slippery. Snotlout takes the toughest guys, who overpowered him quickly. By the time they tried finishing him off, they all ran scared by the presence of his dragon Hookfang. Who stands on top of a cave while setting himself on fire. On the decks to the left, Fishlegs accidentally drops his baby Gronckle and rushes to pick it up.
In the process, he unknowingly trips over a few hunters, who were attempting to attack him from behind. Once he picks it up, he sees another hunter charging him from the left side. Luckily for him though, a tail strike from the Crimson Goregutter got to the hunter before he could even swing his sword. On Hiccup and Astrid's side, they handled some of the hunters and were about to make a break for it. But by the time Hiccup removes his visor, Astrid spots a hunter charging straight at him from behind. She take her axe and throws it at him. Knocking the hunter senseless.
Hiccup thanks Astrid before opening another cage. From there, Toothless rams an ambushing hunter into the cage and confronts Hiccup shortly after.
"Thank you bud," he said as he pats Toothless on top of his head. "Now, go get the rest."
And with that, Toothless disappears into the shipyard to round up the rest of trapped dragons. Leaving just Hiccup and Astrid to deal with the remaining hunters. Which wasn't as hard as they thought.
"I thought this was supposed to be a stealth mission," Astrid points out.
"Well," said Hiccup. "They always start that way."
They turn their backs to each other to cover their flanks when Astrid notices something behind Hiccup. It appeared to be another hunter with a spear.
"Look out!" she warned.
She was about to counter him, but the hunter was suddenly snatched out of nowhere by Astrid's dragon Stormfly. Who threw him out of the shipyard shortly after.
"Thanks Stormfly," Astrid says as she and Hiccup continued their assault.
It was only a few more hunters before they began to evacuate. All Hiccup had to do was give out the call.
"Move out!" he exclaimed. "We got'em all."
By then, they all started clearing out of the shipyard. The first to go were Ruffnut and Tuffnut. Who were carried away by Barf and Belch before they can do anymore damage. The next to clear out was Snotlout, who was quickly grabbed by Hookfang before the hunters should make their move.
"Clear out guys," Astrid said as she climbed on the back of Stormfly.
The last few to leave was Fishlegs, who jumped off the edge of a ship and landed on his gronckle Meatlug, who carried him and the baby off to safety. And all that was left were Hiccup and Toothless.
After a last minute check, Hiccup turns off his sword, only to realize that he was surrounded by more hunters. The one in front was about to strike the first blow, but there was a sudden noise coming from the back of the group. He looks behind him only to rammed by Toothless as he made his way through the group of hunters. As Toothless ran to the back of the ship, Hiccup climbed on his back and the two ascend into the skies.
"You always have my back bud," said Hiccup.
Toothless roared out before continuing the journey home. But before they could even leave the shipyard, an air ripping screech filled the area, and the fabric of reality was torn to shreds in front of the two. And at amiss, a yellow maw came out of nowhere and began sucking the two into it. Hiccup lets out a cry of shock as he grabs hold of Toothless's saddle with both hands. He pulled up with all of his strength as the Night Fury struggled to slow down just in time. He extended his wings wide to halt his forward momentum as much as he could, but the yellow maw was to fast for them to evade.
"Hiccup," Astrid calls out.
Hearing all of the commotion, the other riders turn back to see their chief struggling to fight a vortex that was sucking them in. Astrid grabs hold of Stormfly's reigns and turns herself and her dragon around.
"Stormfly, go," she commanded.
Then she advanced to Hiccup's position with lightning speed. The others followed suit shortly after. Yet they never caught up to them. For in the next moment or two, Hiccup and Toothless flew straight into the vortex, which closed behind them a second later.
Within the vortex, the two screeched in silent agony as the magic itself consumed their bodies. Making them feel as if they were torn apart into small particles. They struggled against the magic's energy as much as the could. But eventually, both dragon and rider were capitulated to it and everything to them went completely black. And they saw nothing but darkness moments later.
