Hiccup's POV
"Are we there yet?" Snotlout groaned, feeling sleepy and bored. One would have thought the action had started already, but instead it was just a clam flight. The first couple of minutes they were too excited to even concentrate on flying, but now? Now they're all just leaning lazily on the back of their dragons, asking every fifth minute where the island was.
"There it is!" I called out, pointing at the red volcano, half covered in dark clouds. We could barely see it from our point of view, but the lava lightened everything up. First they didn't believe me, after those times I decided to tease them by saying it three times without it being true, but Astrid backed me up this time, confirming the sentence. In the distance we could hear an ear piercing roar, and the closer we got, the louder it ringed in our ear drums. Looking back, I could see the horrified looks on everyone's faces, especially Snotlout. But who can blame them?
The sound of a dragon about to fire was heard, and as the fog disappeared I could see Stoick and Gobber not to far from the dragon, probably distracting it. "Plasma blast, bud!" I ordered Toothless. He hit the queen's head, stopping it from attacking the two adult Vikings below its ginormous body. Surprisingly, more blasts were fired as me and Toothless swooped beside the Queen, ending up on the opposite head. The teens followed us, waiting for orders. "Fishlegs break it down," I called out, circling the queen from above.
"Okay. Heavily armored skull and tail made for bashing and crushing. Stay clear of both. Small eyes, large nostrils. Relies on hearing and smell," We dodge the fire, flying back up to each other afterwards.
"Okay. Lout, Legs, hang in its blind spot. Make some noise, keep it confused. Ruff, Tuff, find out if it has a shot limit. Make it mad," Snotlout and Fishlegs moves closer to the queen, and as Ruff and Tuff fly in front of it I could hear them arguing.
"That's my specialty," Ruff called out, almost out of sight.
"Since when? Everyone knows I'm more irritating. See." I groan, flying away from the queen, Astrid following from behind.
"What are we going to do?" She asked, flying up beside me.
"Find a way to make it angry. I need to talk to Stoick. I'll be back as soon as I can," She flew away, helping the others while me and Toothless flew down to where Stoick could be seen. I watch him, not once leaving my gaze with his face. It looked amazed, shocked and impressed? As he noticed me, his gaze turned towards mine, allowing me to look directly into his eyes. His expression had turned to an angry, and what I would suppose, disappointed look.
"You need to stop the fire from burning the ships, when we get the dragon farther away from here, get as much water supplies you have and stop the fire. You're going to need it to get your tribe home," I ordered him. Wait. I ordered him. When I told him this, his expression once again turned to a amazed, shocked and impressed look. He nodded, never leaving eye contact.
"Let's go bud," I patted Toothless's neck, signaling him to fly up. From my point of view, the twins, Snotlout and Fishlegs somehow managed to get tossed of their dragons, either into the water or onto the shores. Astrid was about to be swallowed alive as the air became too hard to resist. We fly high above the clouds, Toothless charging one of his deadliest blasts, and as we dive after the Queen I could almost see Astrid loose her grip on the rope, hanging from it as they were both, Astrid and her dragon, starting to loose strength to keep them from their death. Hopefully, no one else will have to die because of something both me and my father have done. Toothless fire the plasma blast, making a huge explosion just below the queen's chin.
Astrid loosens her grip on the rope, falling from her dragon. We take a loop before diving toward her. As we pass her, the screaming stops. I look down to see Astrid in Toothless's paw, smiling back at my dragon. We fly low, next to the rest of Stoick's tribe, letting Astrid stand by herself on the ground.
"Okay, bud. We need to get it away from the boats." We fly high up in the clouds, turning around to dive down towards the queen. Toothless shoots his plasma blast, knocking the queen of guard. We fly back up, watching the massive dragon slowly stand up, spreading its injured wings. It starts flapping its wings, flying closer and closer in our direction.
Toothless speeds up, trying to avoid the both off us being swallowed whole. I look back just as it's about to fire, but notice something. There's a green type of gas, growing on the inside of its mouth. Something must be lighten it up from the inside! What if…?
Without ordering Toothless, he dodges the attack, flying up towards the dark clouds. Ahh. Now I get it. My hold on his saddle tightens as I look back to make sure everything is going as I plan. The Queen flaps its enormous wings. Out of the corner of my eye, I can see Vikings making their way to the ships. Stoick actually listened! That was unexpected.
I turn back around, lowering myself onto Toothless to increase our speed. Once we got up in the clouds, I can't see anything, and my guess is neither can the Queen. We make sharp turns, shooting plasma blasts every possible place on the Queen's body. One hit its wing, making a whole in it that we soon flew through, trying to get to the front of it. The Queen notices us in front of itself and it starts making its way to us. We dive down, farther away from the boats where everyone else is.
"Keep going bud. Almost there, almost there," I encourage him to keep going, whispering for him to charge his blast. As the ground becomes more visible I could hear the sound that always sends shivers down my spine.
Just like I hoped, the Queen gather as much green gas it can and when it's about to shoot Toothless turns around, making me face the ground instead. He knows what I meant to do as he shoots the plasma out of his mouth and into our opponent's. An explosion shows itself in its mouth, growing larger and larger by the second, and its wings falling apart. Toothless turns around to keep our balance, flying away from being crushed.
The Queen hit the ground beneath us, making a huge explosion after itself. We struggle to dodge the Queen's remaining spikes, trying to outrun, or outfly in this case, the fire. Looking back I can see Toothless's tail burning up. Why haven't I noticed?
Looking back up, unexpectedly seeing the large remaining tail, falling towards us. I try to position his tail, but looking back I can see the cloth rip off just before it's eaten by the hungry flames underneath.
"No, No!" I yell out, waiting for impact. The impact comes, almost knocking me out, but enough to knock me off of Toothless's saddle. A yelp escapes both, me and Toothless's mouths as I fall towards the hungry flames. The last thing I see is Toothless desperately flying towards me, and then it all went black.
