A/N: :D :D :D
Disclaimer: I own nothing!
Sapphire POV:
The chains are heavy, and painfully tight around my wrists. Stoick walks back and forth on the boat, when we turn and reach the fog bank of the Queen's island he stops looking out at the island.
"Sound your positions. Stay within earshot." He commands and Gobber walks up as the boats start to sound out.
"To your left."
"Behind you on your right."
"Behind you."
"No idea."
Wow, that last one sounds encouraging.
"Stoick, I was overhearing some of the warriors just now, and well you know, some of them, what it is we're up to here-not me of course, I know you're always the man-with-the-plan but some-not me are wondering if there is infact a plan at all, and what that might be." The man says hinting clearly that he is part of the "some of the warriors".
"Find the nest and take it." Stoick responds practically growls. A low hum starts in my head and my ears twitch as I realize we're getting very close to the Queen. I hum softly feeling the trance start to over take me. Stoick shoves past the one armed and legged Viking disappearing from my view.
I lift up my head my brain fuzzing thoughts mushing together to nothing. The Queen calls for me softly and I listen to her call jerking my head back and forth as if I am navigating through the sea stacks on my wings.
…
(Hiccup POV)
I glance briefly at the arena before I turn as I hear footsteps.
"If you're planning on getting eaten, I would definitely go with the Gronckle." Fishlegs says a stormy look on his face. Astrid steps into the arena after them, axe strapped to her back and gives me a half smile. By my request she had gathered all the other teens.
Mom gives a brisk nod and climbs ontop of her Stormcutter, Cloudjumper as I had learned.
Tuffnut pushes his way to the front and stalks up to me grinning "You we're wise to seek help from the world's most dangerous weapon. It's me." Tuffnut says, gesturing to himself.
Snotlout shoves him away and nods happily, "I love this plan!" Snotlout says enthusiastically. I look at him in confusion.
"I didn't-" I start, I but stop when Ruffnut leans in close to me.
"You're crazy." She says then whispers, "I like that." Astrid pulls her away from the horn on her helmet and I give her a grateful look.
"So what is the plan?" She asks. I grin and look at Ruff and Tuff who are lying on the ground and then up at Astrid again.
…..
Sapphire POV
The hum increases the closer we get and I can hardly hear anything but the other dragons suffering the same fate. The boat creaks softly and I hear it like I'm underwater. I do not want to be here!
"Oh, heh, I was wondering where that went." Someone says chuckling softly and I lift up my head to the mountain.
"Stay low, and ready your weapons." Stoick commands.
The voice is barely entering my head, I stare up at the direction volcano the hum and need to get to the Queen feeling me. Despite my protests, not to. I scan my brain for anything to think about besides her, and a face flashes in my mind, brown haired, stuttering clumsy mess. Hiccup.
I focus all my thoughts on my other half trying to draw my mind away from the Queen, and surprisingly it starts to work. The ship lurches suddenly and my thoughts snap back to normal and I look at the rocky beach of the Queen's island.
Stoick swings over the side of the ship sword in each hand, "Were here." He says looking up at the island, face set with determination.
…
Hiccup POV:
I back up slowly hand outstretched, the Monstrous Nightmare follows me out slowly his hot breath tickling my skin. I slow to a stop and grab Snotlout's palm,"Wait! What are you-" He starts his voice gaining several octaves.
"Relax, It's going to be fine." I assure and replace his hand with mine. Snotlout's hand reaches out and he touches the Nightmares snout.
I walk away and Snotlout gives a squeak of fear, "Where are you going!" He demands. I don't answer reaching into a crate pulling out a rope.
"Okay." I say turning around and throw a rope to Snotlout who catches it, "The plan is to go in, take Sapphire and then blast apart the Queen." I say.
"Um I hate to be Norbert the Negative, but..I really don't think that's going to work." Fishlegs says and Astrid whacks him on the arm. I bite on my lip agreeing with him but not voicing it.
"It will." She assures and looks over at me,"Lets go get your twin."
….
Sapphire POV:
I watch from the deck of the ship hours later from when we docked, the Vikings have left me on the boat, why they didn't just kill me now I don't know, It's not like I'd be of any use to them anyway, I already unintentionally led them where they want to go
A Viking slams a spear into the ground lined up with the hundreds of others. Stoick, and other men stand up in front as he looks at the mountain pointing down at a map before he lifts up his hand.
The Vikings fire the catapults and they hit the mountain with a long bang that echoes around us breaking an opening into the mountain. Great, now they're going to bring the Queen out and we'll all die! At least Hiccup will survive stuck on Berk, but alive. Stoick walks forward to the cave and ducks as flaming hay is fired over his head.
I can't see what he can but he lifts up his hammer, "DEATH OR GLORY!" He shouts and the Vikings repeat the call before Stoick races forward and the dragons jump out of the cave. My ears lower in fear, having seen more than once what the Queen can do, I have been here, twice I think. Its horrifying.
The dragons shoot out of the tunnel ,"Get away she's coming!" Dragons shout and Gronckles race away at the speed of normal dragons. I struggle against the chains of the prison wanting nothing more than to get away.
"WE DONE IT!" A voice shouts and the Vikings cheer. I pull against the chains, but the metal doesn't budge.
"No! This isn't over form ranks!" Stoick shouts racing forward before a roar breaks through the air.
"YOU DARE ATTACK ME!?" The Queen shouts and I whimper ducking my head as her voice screams in my brain, shooting a headache worthy to say it's splitting my brain open. The Queen roars in anger, stomping on catapults.
"GET TO THE SHIPS!" A voice screams and the Queen laughs wickedly in all the dragon's heads.
"You may try." She yells before building up gas in her throat. I take in a sharp breath. I am on the ships. Dragons are mostly fireproof but so are the chains that bind me to the ship. Valka races forward seeing the Queen's plan.
"No NO!" She shouts but it was too late. The Queen fires and the gust of heat hits me before the flames do and it lights the wood of the boat on fire instantly.
Great.
….
Hiccup POV:
I release a breath, and pat the Night Fury under me, Toothless as he had proudly proclaimed. Surprisenly, he hadn't tried to kill me again, after explaining what I'm doing he agreed, as if he knew Sapphire.
When we reach dragon island a few hours later, a huge mountain dragon was already out and the fleet was on fire or destroyed, "No," I breathe as I stare at the burning ships. I knew they wouldn't take Sapphire off of the ships. There we're shouts and I could hear dad and Gobber. I pat the Toothless on the neck, "Fire at the head!" I command he does as I request and there is a blast as her fire makes contact with the head.
"I'm going to go try and talk some sense into your father!" Mom yells as she dives past me. I mod and watch her disappear.
"Ha Ha!" Toothless shouts before we fly out of range and in the sight line of dad and Gobber who were small figures on the island.
I wave at them and stare at the dragon breaking it down on my head before looking back at the other teens.
"Fishlegs break it down!" I shout.
His eyes narrow. "It's got a heavily armored skull and tail made for bashing and crashing, stay away from both. Small eyes large nostrils, on relies on hearing and smell." He conclude.
"Got it." Astrid shouts.
"Okay. 'lout 'legs keep it confused, Ruff Tuff figure out if it has a shot limit, make it mad!" I call.
"That's our specialty." Ruffnut assures.
"Just do what I told you!" I call before Toothless dives to the side.
I shove down the panic feeling me for my twin and scan the burning ships. The fire and smoke is obscuring my vision. I stare at it harder and then I see the speck of dark blue, "There!" I cry and let out a breath of relief.
"Sapphire!" Toothless calls. He lands on the deck and I race forward towards my sister half hugging her.
She sighs in relief and looks at Toothless. "I'm sorry." Toothless says.
Sapphire smirks, "Blast these apart and I'll say were even." She assures lifting up the shackles extending around the railing of the ship.
A shadow looms over the boat and I whirl around in shock and see the huge foot of the dragon slam down on the deck.
"Think you can run little dragons?" The dragon hisses at us and I look up at her in shock before the boat snaps down the middle and me, Sapphire and Toothless are thrown into the water.
I land in it with a splash and I turn around swim to Sapphire. The heavy chains on her are making her sink like an anchor. I reach her and put my hands out my fingers struggling for the chain again, I grasp it and tug at it several times in desperation to save my twin. Toothless joins me, biting and clawing at the chains. My lungs scream and my breath slips out like I had been kicked.
I am drowning.
Water rushes into where air used to be and I close my eyes and my hand lets go of the chain. A force grabs my back and drags me to the surface.
"Hiccup!" Toothless shouts his voice distant like I have fish in my ears. Which sadly I do speak from experience. I'm placed on the rocky beach and I snap my eyes open and cough up water as I see dad jump back into the water. I cough and take in a deep breath before I stand and wait.
A few seconds later with an explosion of sea water Toothless bursts out of the water and sets dad and Sapphire down before he lands on the rock shaking of water. He turns to me, "Come on!" He shouts.
I grin and push my wet hair away from my face and rush up to him, "You go it, bud." I say. I jump onto his back I see dad move from the corner of my eye. I don't look up at him but lift my head high to look at the monster dragon as she smashes another catapult.
Sapphire roars shaking water off as she changes to her dragon form. "Lets blow this this thing." She says.
A hand grabs my own and I flinch, I look at see that dad has my hand in his own, "Hiccup, I'm sorry….For, for everything." He says his eyes wide.
I shrug, "Yeah, me too." He looks up at me his green eyes filled with regret. "You don't have to go up there." He says, nearly begging.
I smile, "We're Vikings, it's an occupational hazard." I say, we exchange smiles.
He grows serious again, "I'm proud to call you my children." He says looking at both Sapphire and I. My eyes widen and he releases my hand.
"Thanks, dad." I say.
"He speaks for both of us." Sapphire says and dad backs away. Toothless jumps into the air flying around for a second drying off. A wet dragon head can't light it's fire.
"He's up!" Astrid yells.
"Get Snotlout out of there." Isha commands. I glance and see Snotlout on top of the head, the twins argue, before Snotlout jumps onto the Zipplebacks neck and the twins rush off.
"I can believe that worked!" Tuffnut shouts.
Astrid and her Nadder fly by the mouth, the dragon takes a deep inhale and Astrid and the Nadder are start to get dragged back. Toothless races at them and a whistling noise echoes in the air. Toothless fires a blast and it smashes into the large dragon's head and the Nadder's flight faltures as Astrid is tossed from the saddle.
She screams as she falls through the air and Toothless picks up speed, he reaches Astrid's falling body and I look down at the wings but can't see her,"Did you get her?" I ask. Toothless ducks his head down. Giving a affirmative growl.
I give a sigh of relief and Toothless sets Astrid down. Astrid, slightly breathless says, "Go."
We circle around the Vikings and I look at the huge dragon. I look at it in shock, "That thing has wings!" I realize I pat Toothless on the side of the head."Okay, let's see if she can use them."
"Care for any assistance?" Sapphire asks diving in next to us. I shoot her a half smile.
"If you want to offer it." I say and she smirks. Toothless turns and we plummet, Sapphire and Toothless building up blasts. Wind blows in my ears and the now familiar whistle of his plasma blast is heard. Toothless and Sapphire fire and the entire dragon tips over from the powerful blasts.
There is a moment where she just lays on the ground before the dragon lifts up a huge tattered and torn wing. She slowly gains air I grip the handles tighter,"Well she can fly." I say slightly wondering if that's a good thing.
"Noted." Sapphire shouts at me.
"Head for the sea stacks!" I command her. Sapphire nods and both the Night Fury and Flashing Death dive into a valley of sea stacks. I look back at the huge dragon. She snaps at us, but cannot reach us. She give a frustrated roar before it starts breaking through the sea stacks in hot pursuit.
I look around us and see the thick black heavy snow clouds. "Head for the clouds, you'll blend in." I shout to Sapphire.
Toothless lifts up his head and I grin and click the tail fin, "Okay Toothless, time to disappear." I say and Toothless takes in a sharp steep climb into the clouds. "Come on, bud!" I shout.
"Disappear we shall." Toothless assures.
We soar up and I hear the sound of the gas and spark and I pull Toothless to the side,"Here it comes!" I warn. The fire shoots past us and we soar up higher into the sky.
My twins is next to us Sapphire eyes are wide but she locks her gaze with mine.
Toothless disappears instantly in the blackness of the of the clouds. The huge dragon gives roars of confusion and frustration.
"Aim for the wings." I say softly to Toothless and Sapphire.
"Got it." Toothless says, lowering his ears in determination. If he blast on the wings and go in for a dive it will make her wings unstable and they'll rip apart. And then problem solved.
Toothless builds up a plasma blast, and fires it at the left wing and then he dives back into the clouds.
Sapphire dives onto the other side and fires a just at the right wing disappearing into the clouds just as easily. Toothless disappears as quickly as he had appeared and we continue this pattern until Toothless has one shot left. I'm pretty sure Sapphire is out.
"I'm out!" Sapphire roars.
"Go to land, now! We'll be there in a second." I say.
"Be safe, Hiccup." Sapphire commands.
I grip the handle tighter as I hear the big dragons furious roar.
A huge fireball spreads through the clouds and I look back at it in horror, "Watch out!" I yell. Toothless pulls away but his tail llits licked by the flame. The fin is ripped open, Toothless letting out a roar of pain. I put a hand on his head to steady him.
"Let's see if this works." I say and Toothless turns around nodding his head in agreement and we race to the dragon, Toothless ignoring the sting as best he can. "Is that the best you can do?!" I taunt.
Toothless roars and we fly by it's face just to be irritating. The dragon reaches up but cant snatch us from the air.
"Hungry? Eat my dust." Toothless taunts before he zooms past the dragon.
"Night Fury! I will crush all you love! You traitor!" The dragon shrieks.
Toothless dives heading for the ground, the dragon chasing after us.
I hear a small ignition and turn around looking back at the ripping apart tailfin. I can hear the older dragons wings flap powerfully. I glance back at the tail and see more than half of it is gone.
"Hiccup…" Toothless starts.
"We're good, just a little bit longer." I assure and he nods looking down at the ground eyes narrowing with determination
The dragon takes an inhale and I close my eyes, focusing on sound to hear the gas building. "Hold Toothless, NOW!" I yell. Toothless flips around and fires a blast into the dragon's mouth. It lights on fire and the all six eyes widen with shock.
"TRAITOR!" She yells angrily and snaps open her wings but the wind rips the weakened wings from Toothless's blast and they tear open. Toothless dives into one of the holes and we reach the back of the dragon.
The older dragon smashes into the ground and a huge fireball erupts around us, blasting up. Toothless and I start to navigate through the tall spikes much like we had the sea stacks until there was a horrible snapping noise.
I snap my head around and see as the tail fin flies off into the fire. "No," I breathe. I whip my head around and see the huge tail in front of us, my eyes widen as Toothless crashes into the tail.
I'm thrown from the saddle and pure terror races through me as I fall backwards, falling to a red death, Toothless flips around, eyes widening as he sees me.
"HICCUP!" He shouts turning around to come after me. Fire bites into my back and I lose consciousness as the fire swallows me whole.
