Hiccup sighed as he set foot out into the village. A week had passed since he'd fought and killed Snoutlout. The memory gave him little guilt but lots of satisfaction. Walking out, Hiccup glanced around. Many were of doing what they did best. Gobber was working in the forge, hammering away at weapons. His father was doing his duties. Dagmar and Birger were out overlooking a group of young Vikings. The twins pulled pranks, Fishlegs sat out, reading the Book of Dragons. Astrid, she was nowhere to be seen.
Sighing, Hiccup walked along. Coming to a stop, many looked up, watching him. Some walked up to him. Congratulated him on ending the painful and annoying Snoutlout. Hiccup chuckled and looked out to the sky to see an orange and black rhino like dragon hovering in the air. Beside it, hovered a Monstrous Nightmare shaped dragon. Red and black in colour. It was smaller then your average Nightmare. It's head was less spiked and seemed more Terrible Terror in shape then Nightmare. Behind them, was an Inferno King. Hovering by their side, was the Night Fury.
The village was quick to grab their weapons before I sighed. "Don't bother." Fishlegs was quick to look up and widen his eyes. The dragons landed before the village. Stoick soon walked out. "What's going on?" He asked. Hiccup sighed. "The time to find the nest is nearing dad. Soon, this war can be over and peace will exist between both our kinds." Stoick nodded. The Nigh Fury walked forward, tilting his head as he eyed Hiccup.
"Is that a Lava Hunter, and Fire Snapper, and, oh my Thor, an Inferno King?" The three riders were quick to chuckle. "You seem to follow on with you family's love for knowledge Fishlegs." The village was quick to eye the rider of the Lava Hunter, the rhino shaped dragon. "Who... How do you know my name?" The rider was quick to chuckle. "I think I'd know people from my home tribe very well Fishlegs."
The tribe glanced fast, blinking in confusion before Hiccup sighed. "Everything we know about dragons. Is wrong." Mildrew laughed. "Really, their just demons who have no care for us and kill us all." Hiccup shook his head. "Really, then explain why the dragons suddenly attacked us 300 years ago. Before then, they had no care for what we did, they ignored us." Mildrew shook his head. "Stubborn Fishbone. Dragons never left us alone."
The riders of the three dragons chuckled. "Really, then shouldn't we be dead?" The village eyed the three as Finn and Gustavo removed their masks. The village was quick to freeze. "Wait, you were taken by an Inferno King. Which means, if you lived, wouldn't that mean." Hiccup laughed. "Everything you, we knew about dragons is wrong. It's why they are our unlikely allies in this war. Because only a dragon can kill their queen. And I'm sure many of these dragons would love to kill it for the 300 years of torment and fear induced rule it's had them under in that time."
Mildrew laughed. "As if. Those devils would never harm one of their own. As if they would..." Mildrew was cut short as he was pushed forward by Astrid. "I dare you to speak again, my uncle and brother have just returned, proving that dragons are not as we see them, and you still have the gut to insult them. Look around you, do you see anyone else going against it." Mildrew glanced around. "You really buying this?" Stoick sighed. "Mildrew, I know things you don't. And if Berk if safer living among dragons, then so be it. But I will not tolerate you attempting to ruin the chance for peace."
Mildrew snorted. "As if, your only following along because there's a chance that you wife could still be alive. Once she's back, you'll return to killing them. You always will." Hiccup narrowed his eyes at Mildrew before throwing his axe fast. Mildrew reacted slowly. His left arm coming clean off. "You, control your runt Stoick." Stoick laughed. "I think he has every right to kill you. In fact, I think the whole tribe will agree."
Mildrew looked around, watching as the tribe nodded in agreement. "Really, you're going to let traitors who have no honour corrupt your minds?" Hiccup was quick to drag Mildrew out into the centre. The Inferno King was quick to advance forward. "Now, Mildrew, you see this three dragons, they defend dragons. How many dragons have you killed without mercy? how many have you skinned just because you're too stubborn to accept change?" Mildrew glanced at Hiccup.
"Over 250. And I have no regrets." Hiccup chuckled. "You really are stupid Mildrew, you just pissed off an Inferno King. Oh, and one more thing. While I was out of action, I had many requests from Astrid and the rest of the village to end you. But I think it'd be fitting if you died at the hands of a dragon. A dragon that you pissed off. And a dragon that obeys a Titan Wing Inferno King. A dragon that is on average, four times, if not, five times the size of you common Inferno King." Mildrew gulped. His stubborn mind refusing to accept defeat.
"I won't accept change. They will always be mindless killers." The Inferno King was quick to raise a claw and slam it into the ground. Mildrew chuckled in satisfaction before widening his eyes in horror. "You really want to say that again. This dragon, just wrote out a sentence. Mind, it isn't well written, but that's because this is a male Inferno King. And you know what it says."
Mildrew shook his head. "It says. 'Mildrew will no understand us. He will be stubborn rest of life. Die with no honour. He will.'" Mildrew glanced up at the Inferno King as he chuckled. A small smile forming along his face. "Well Mildrew. Anything left to say before you die?" Mildrew shook his head. "Then may Helheim welcome you with open arms."
The Inferno King was quick to bring his tail round, stabbing Mildrew through the right leg and using a claw to rip his right arm off. Blood exploding everywhere as he screamed in pain. With another claw, he ripped his left leg of. Then, using it's breath, he breathed a small amount of Molten Metal into his body. Spikes emerging as they tore through Mildrew's body. The village watched as the dragon then stepped back. Hiccup walked forward.
"And that is what happens when you question the intelligence of these wonderful creatures. Let it be a lesson to you all. They are not as we believe." With all said and done, Hiccup turned and left to the arena. Astrid not far behind him. The Hoffersons, Fishlegs and the riders, along with the dragons coming shortly afterwards.
Stick turned back to the village. "We prepare to travel to Helheim's Gate. Once Hiccup and the dragons are ready, we end this war and establish peace. And become the first tribe since before this war started to allow dragons to live among us." The village cheered. Many, Spitelout included. Were now wanting to end this dragon queen once and for all. And perhaps gain a dragon to call his own.
