I posted this chapter earlier than I thought mainly because I enjoyed writing the first one so much. This writing stuff is kind of addicting...on with the chapter!

SIX YEARS LATER

"Ruff! Tuff!" Astrid yelled. Ruffnut and Tuffnut the mischief-making twins of Berk had been gone for most of the day which was very odd considering their behaviour.

"Honestly, if those two set their hut on fire again, I will personally see to it that they are escorted to Outcast Island myself!" Astrid said to Snotlout her soon-to-be fiance who was honestly one of the dumbest vikings on the island

"Astrid, calm down. At least we get to spend some time together sweetie." Snotlout said in a sugary-sweet voice that sounded absolutely revolting

Unfortunately for Snotlout though, he was punched in the face.

"OWWWWWW" He cried "Why would you do that?"

"THAT was for calling me sweetie!" Astrid fired back

Suddenly the twins and Fishlegs the nerdy dork of the group came into view

"There you are! I've been looking for you two all day where have you been?" Astrid demanded

"Chief made us clean the kill ring as punishment for BREATHING too loud" Ruffnut the female Thorston twin replied

"It was absolute torture Astrid! You know how much I hate cleaning!" Tuffnut complained

"You have to admit Astrid, Stoick's mood swings are getting pretty crazy now a days." Fishlegs said "He once gave me a punishment for being to smart! How crazy is that?!"

Astrid sighed. After Hiccup left 6 years ago, Stoick fell into a state of depression which was quite unexpected seeing as he never really had shown the boy any love or encouragement at all. After he got over his depression he become angry and stubborn. Well, more than usual. Things had changed a lot over 6 years. With Hiccup gone Snotlout was to become the next chief unfortunately. Fishlegs had grown even larger and now sported a mustache which didn't really suit him. The twins pranks had started become crazier and more dangerous than usual. As for Astrid she decided to leave her hair down and wore a blue tunic and red vest with her usual skirt and leggings. Above all that she was to marry Snotlout for an alliance of their families. The most interesting change was that of the dragon raids on Berk. They had completely stopped and no one knew why.

While the twins continued to complain about cleaning, Gobber was running as fast as he could to the chief's home.

"STOICK ARE YE THERE?!" Gobber yelled while banging on the door to the Haddock House

"What's got in to you now Gobber?" Stoick asked with a weary face "Trolls stealin' your socks again?"

"No, its not that! Much more important!" Gobber said out of breath "It's Trader Johann! Says he's got news on Hiccup's whereabouts!"

"What?! How is that possible?! We combed the entire archipeligo looking for him!" Stoick asked

"Johann said that he found 'im outside of the archipeligo on an island the shape of a dragon!" (Johann found him on Dragon's Edge. I loved Race to the edge so much I had to add it)

"Where is Johann now?" Stoick demanded

"Over at the docks" Gobber replied

Stoick took off to the docks as fast as a Speedstinger which was remarkable considering his age. Astrid and the gang noticed the chief running and decided to go after him considering that he was never THIS excited before.

When Stoick got to the docks he immediately found Johann and bombarded him with questions.

"Easy Master Stoick. My brain is not able to process all this information at once." Johann said

"Whats going on here?" Astrid asked

"Johann has some information on Hiccup's whereabouts lass." Stoick said

"Aye Chief. It all started when I was in Sri Lanka looking for some rare spices-"

"Cut to the chase Johann we don't have time for your stories." Snotlout rudely interrupted

"Very well Master Snotlout, I was caught in a horrible storm and was washed up on the shores of a beach. I awoke to find a silver dragon with electric green eyes and a tail that could cut through an entire forest. Next to the creature there was a rider. I didn't really get a good look at the rider seeing as a hood covered most of their face. They were wearing some sort of armor made out of the silver dragon's scales by the look of it. I also did get a good look at the eyes. They were the same green as the beast's!"

"Wait a minute, Hiccup took off on a Night Fury and the dragon you are describing isn't anything like it." Fishlegs inquired

"I didn't finish my tale yet. The rider took me to their base and by the looks of it they weren't the only ones there seeing as there were multiple huts. They took me to what look liked a clubhouse in the very center of their base. To my horror more riders entered!" Johann shook with terror

"Do you remember what they looked like Johann?" Stoick asked

"Yes, there was the the hooded rider wearing the silver armor and the dreadful sharp tailed beast, a rider wearing Berserker armor and flaming red hair and green eyes."

"Is it just me or does that describe Dagur the Deranged whom disappeared in the war with the Berserkers 6 years ago?" Tuffnut asked

"If he's back he'll be wanting revenge. You know cause we burned the village to ashes a couple years back" Ruff casually said

"How would you feel if he has a 3-tailed, winged, MONSTER with him?" Johann asked

"Was there anyone else Johann?" asked Fishlegs who was busy sketching Johann's descriptions

"Yes, Master Fishlegs. A teenage boy with black hair and brown eyes. He wore red armor and had a Monstrous Nightmare as a companion I believe. There was also a rather plump rider with blonde hair and kind blue eyes wearing green color armor. I couldn't tell if they were male or female but they had a Gronkle as a pet. Finally there was a young man wearing some sort of black armor with red streaks. I couldn't make out his facial features seeing as he was wearing a helmet (Basically the flight suit from HTTYD 3) but he had with him the unholy offspring of lightning and death itself!"

"How did you escape?" Astrid asked

"They were generous enough to repair my ship and send me off with a few supplies. I got here as soon as I could."

"Do you have the location of the island Johann?" Fishlegs asked

"As a matter of fact I actually do" Saying so he handed him a map marked with the location

"Good. It's settled then. We leave for this island at first light." Stoick declared

Another chapter done. I have to admit I'm really enjoying writing these fanfics. Although, I spent a lot of time on Johann's descriptions of The mysterious dragon riders. Some are made up and some are from RTTE. Guess who! Please leave comments so I can make future tweaks.

The next chapter focuses on the travel to Dragon's Edge. Until then, bye and Happy New Year!
