Hiccup watched as the second Night Fury zoomed through the air. The first Night Fury was starting to walk forward. Standing ready, Hiccup held his axe. The plate like side facing him, using it a temporary shield. Astrid slowly stood up next to him, her axe held the same way. "Alright dragon, I'll end make sure you die, and then I'm going to be everyone's favourite Viking around here."
The dragon slowly walked forward. It's eyes narrowed in to a slit. A low growl emerged from its throat. Hiccup smirked. "Alright beast, let's dance." Hiccup charged forward. His eyes narrowed and utter concentration thrown across his expression. Bringing the axe forward, Hiccup moved to strike the dragon. The Night Fury jumped back, roaring once more.
Astrid slowly made her way round behind the dragon, her parents coming up quickly to assist. Hiccup kept his eyes locked on the dragon. Watching it as he moved forward. Winking his left eye at Dagmar and Astrid first, he then winked at Birger. Leaping forward, Hiccup quickly threw his axe forward. From the other three sides, the Hoffersons threw their axes. Astrid grabbing her daggers and throwing them afterwards.
Within quick succession, Hiccup fired his crossbow. Each bolt managing to land and impale the Night Fury. As Hiccup started moving forward. A new roar was heard. It was low, but loud. Hiccup immediately froze at the sound of the roar. The second Night Fury was quick to land by the first and stand closer to them.
The dragons were quick to stop fighting the Vikings. Each widen their eyes in fear. Stoick stood, confused as to why the dragons had suddenly stopped. "What's going on?" Spitelout shrugged. "No idea chief." The sound of wings flapping soon caught their eyes.
In the sky. A dragon hovered. It had spikes along its body. Two legs, each with clawed feet. It had a small head and was as large as a Monstrous Nightmare. It's deep red eyes scanned Berk. It's scales glimmering in the moonlight, Black and purple. Claw marks and scratch's scattered along it's body.
Eyeing the village, it soon eyed Hiccup, and then the two Night Furies. With a mighty roar, it dived down. Hiccup watched in utter fear before Astrid dived forward, pulling him to the ground as the second Night Fury leapt forward. Meeting the new dragon, the second Night Fury fired a plasma blast at it. The dragon flew to the right, dodging the blast before firing back with a purple fire.
Hiccup watched as the second Night Fury took to the sky, claws sharpened and teeth ready. Clawing away at the new dragon. The Night Fury unleashed it's wrath. The first Night Fury, using it's body, started to make a run for it. With the whole village drawn to the fight. Watching as these two dragons fought, it was easy for him to escape into the forest. His left tailfin was all but gone.
The fight between the two dragons seemed one-sided for the Night Fury. Till the new dragon brought it' tail up, sending the second Night Fury down to the ground. Landing with a thud, the second Night Fury roared back. The dragon landed and started to move forward. Each stride it took sent shivers down the spines of everyone watching.
Astrid watched with wide eyes, her parents behind her and Hiccup by her side. Watching with renewed fear, Hiccup started to shake, sweat starting to roll down his forehead. The dragon slowly came to a stop before roaring in the face of the second Night Fury. A female Night Fury. With a might stab. The new dragon killed the Night Fury. It soon turned ad eyed Hiccup. It's eyes widen for a few short seconds before narrowing again.
Slowly stepping forward, the dragon leaned it's head down before sniffing Hiccup. Once down, it roared in his face before turning round, grabbing the dead Night Fury in it's claws and taking to the night sky. The dragons all fleeing before it. Gobber slowly came to a stop by Hiccup and saw the fear in his eyes.
Hiccup soon fainted from pure fear. The village was quick to rush over. "What happened to him?" Asked Astrid. Snoutlout soon made his way over. Eyed Hiccup and laughed. "So much for a warrior." Stoick. Realising why Hiccup had fainted quickly grabbed Snoutlout by the shoulder and eyed the village. Everyone had gathered to see the fight between the two dragons. "People of Berk. Go home and rest. We will fill you in on what's going on tomorrow."
People grumbled before Stoick turned round. "Birger, get him to your home." Birger widen his eyes. "But sir, he's your son." Stoick sighed. "Let's talk about this where we don't have an audience." Birger nodded as Astrid picked Hiccup up.
Opening the doors to the Hofferson home. Astrid layed Hiccup set Hiccup down in a chair. "What's going on? And why here?" Asked Astrid, her eyes eyeing Stoick with suspicion. Stoick sighed. "That dragon, it is one that our family has encountered before. One that, not even I have ever seen up close. Only heard about from Hiccup. That was the dragon that killed Elina Freya Haddock, that was the dragon that killed my sister and his aunt. That dragon is a Shadowflame Terror."
The house was quiet. Astrid was quick to recite the passage for the Shadowflame Terror from the Book of Dragons.
Beware the devil of shadows.
If seen, you have no hope.
Run and run, do not stop.
For this dragon will hunt.
If you hear it's roar.
Then run and hide.
Pray it does no pick up you scent.
Watch out for this dragon.
Shadowflame Terror.
Astrid stopped. Looking up at Stoick she sighed. "That dragon, it hadn't been here for eleven years. Why come back now?" Stoick glanced down. "I don't know. But the fight between the Night Fury and it may be a reason why." Dagmar bit her lower lip. "You think, the Shadowflame Terror feeds upon the Night Furies. Like a food source?"
Stoick nodded. "Perhaps." Astrid soon took a deep breath. "Ok, before we talk about this dragon, why did you want Hiccup to be brought here. He's your son." Stoick glanced down. "He's not." Birger widen his eyes. "You disowned him?" Stoick shook his head. "No, he disowned me. He left my family, said that I wasn't his father." Astrid cracked a small laugh. Dagmar managed to keep hers hidden. Birger shook his head. "I'm not surprise sir, you weren't there for him during his life."
Stoick nodded. "I know, but I still care for him. It's why I never wanted him out during the raids, or why I never let him go to Dragon Training. But, he left me and has no where to go. I need to call in a final favour, take care of him. give him somewhere to live, if he won't accept me, then perhaps he'll accept you instead." Birger sighed. "Sir, whatever happens. You will be held responsible. Now go, leave. You said it yourself that he wouldn't want to see you when he woke. So go."
Stoick nodded, getting up, he left out the door. Glancing back, Stoick sighed. 'Gods above, if I can't have my dear Valka back, then please let me have my son back.' Stoick let out a deep breath and headed back to his home.
So, Hiccup's nightmare dragon is revealed. Keep this dragon in mind, as it's going to play a major part later on for Hiccup.
The male Night Fury heads out on his own. Unable to fly. Must be Toothless.
In a turn of events. It is indeed Hiccup who disowns his father. Saving him the pain later own.
