Chapter 4 Their coming
"And how do we know that there not goin' to turn their backs upon us again?!" Spitelout shouted
"Because I offer you my word." Leif said "Many of my men have been killed fighting Alvin and Drago's men. And I wish to make them pay."
"So you'd use us for revenge?!" Spitelout counteracted "Like, like PAWNS in a game?!"
"Spitelout!" Hiccup shouted "That is enough! I believe that Leif is telling the truth."
"And how in Thor's name did you come to that conclusion?" a grumpy old coot barked from the back corner
Gods. Hiccup thought He's still alive "I believe hem because I've taken multiple issues into consideration. First:" he said as he stood for all to see "We have the problem on why haven't Alvin or Drago attacked in the last five months? When they were clearly prepared to invade at any given moment. Second: We have the issue of the very size of the Berserker armada and army. I mean, I remember it being quite a bit bigger than what it is now."
"Well what's either of those got to do with this?!" the old man yelled as he pushed his way forward "I say that we arrest these demons and place them on trial for their acts against our people."
"Yeah!" a random villager agreed causing a mass majority of the Berkian crowd to rally behind the old cabbage farmer
"It seems you've got a difficult decision to make." he said with a crooked grin to the chief
"I decide to have you all SHUT UP!" Astrid screamed over the crowd. Earning a look from Hiccup that almost shouted "thank you" as the villagers immediately quieted down out of fear from the former Hofferson's rage
"Now." Hiccup said as he addressed his people once again "If you're all done with your temper fits, I'll explain how I came to the conclusion of accepting Leif Erickson's offer of peace."
If Astrid's shoutout didn't stop them before, they definitely stopped now to hear their chief's logical answer
"Now." Hiccup started "If you take the two issues together, you find a cause, and an effect. The cause is the fact of Alvin and Drago's ready dispatch of men who were prepared to fight at any moment. And the effect is that the Berserker armada is short about fifty ships."
"One hundred." Leif said softly
"Pardon?" Hiccup asked
"We lost over one hundred ships and over two thousand men."
"See what I mean?" Hiccup shouted to the crowd as he gestured to Leif and some of his men "Their defenses were nearly knocked out from under them! And why? To hopefully weaken our enemies forces. Heck, they didn't even know if we would let them come anywhere near our shores. Or if we would just kill them for their crimes.
"Yet," the chief continued "they still fought bravely for our cause. For your families and friends! For your home! And anyone who shows that kind of selflessness, is worthy of my trust. And I hope that they are now worthy of my village's trust as well."
-Crowd mummers in agreement-
"What?!" the old man yelled at the crowd "You've all got to be blooming joking! Just think of the amount of friends and family members that those Berserkers have killed! They don't deserve peace! They deserve Death!" he spat out
"I trust them." Hiccup said coolly as he looked at the old man "And you should too."
"Ha! See what's going on? Our very chief has sided with our enemies! This is why we should've never let a runt become chief!"
"You! Will! Stand! Down!" a deep voice of authority bellowed across the hall "I've put up with you for too long Mildew! And if you don't shut up, right now, I will banish you off of this island under the charge of attempted rivalry towards the chief!"
Everyone was now looking at the speaker to find, to their amazement, that the speaker was indeed their chief. Hiccup.
"Now you can either leave independently," Hiccup continued "or you can have your butt served to you on a silver platter!"
"Why I've never…"
"Been spoken to that way?" Hiccup questioned "Well it's about time. Now, GET! OUT! OF! MY! SIGHT!"
"Bahh!" Mildew complained as he stormed out of the hall
"Now," Hiccup continued as he faced the crowd "anyone else want to argue about the treaty?"
Now maybe it was fright. Maybe because they were surprised. Or just maybe because of both. All of the villagers took a step backwards from the chief, and no one offered a single argument
"No one? Good." Hiccup said as he sat down with a heavy sigh and called upon the parchment that the treaty would be established upon. Which was signed by both parties immediately. Sealing the treaty in each other's blood
"Now." Hiccup said as he wiped off his bloody finger "The Berserkers are now friends of Berk. And anyone caught giving them problems, will answer to me. Now, go and be with your families and friends. Today is a day that we celebrate."
"Hold on." Leif said "I don't think that you'll want to be doing that."
"Why now?" Astrid asked
"Because Drago and Alvin are sailing for Dragon Island to capture more dragons as we speak. Their coming."
"Everyone!" Hiccup shouted "Prepare the ships for battle. We said for Dragon Island at dawn. If it all goes as planned, we should be able to format an ambush."
Hearing of the potential danger if Drago gained control of the dragons on Dragon Island, the villagers immediately rushed to the docks to do the chief's bidding and prepare for battle.
Meanwhile, outside the hall, the dragons were having a debate of their own concerning the Skrills.
We can't let them live! One Nadder protested Not after they killed my rider!
Your rider wasn't killed by any of usone of the Skrills stated The one who killed your rider was killed by the Dark One's Flightmares
Don't care! Screeched the NadderYou were friends of his, and any friend of my riders murderer is an enemy of mine!
ENOUGH! The alpha screeched at the bickering dragons The Skrills are not to be harmed!
Rubbish! The Nadder screeched once again They deserve t-
No one deserves to die! Toothless countered And you will either be quiet, or you will be asked to leave. Do I make myself clear?
Yes alpha The Nadder stated as she moved away
Now if the savior can convince his people to accept the Berserkers. We will also accept the Skrills. Toothless said to them
And if they don't? Cloudjumpper asked
Then we will be an example for our humans and accept the Skrills anyway.
But alpha...the Nadder spoke up again
My decision has been made! And as for you Nadder…LEAVE! NOW!
Seeing that Toothless was ready to banish him, he took off and flew into the forest to relax
Any other objections? Toothless asked which was responded with silence None? Good. Now go home. All of you.
As the dragons were dispersing, Silverwings landed in front of Toothless with a bow
Why do you always bow Silverwings? Toothless asked with a smirk
I-I thought…
-Laughs heartily-
He's just messin' with ya' Cloudjumpper told her with a nudge
YesToothless verified And I'm sorry if I confused you for a moment there. But, onto more pressing matters, how's your boy?
A little shaken up over this whole endeavor, especially from you screeching in his face. But at the moment, he's sleeping at home.
Good.Toothless said I-I mean…not good that he's stressed, but good that he's sleeping
Um, can I ask you two a question? Silverwings said to Toothless and Cloudjumpper
Yes? They both said in unison
Um, I was wondering if you two knew of a way to be able to speak with your human. You know like…in an actual conversation?
What are you implying? Toothless asked
I'm implying that I wish to speak with my human like I speak amongst you
Silverwings? Cloudjumpper said in shock Are you saying what I think you're saying?
Yes.
-Sigh-Toothless? Cloudjumpper asked Help me out here
Silverwings.Toothless said Do you wish to do this to your boy?
Yes
Do you know the consequences of doing such a thing?
What consequences? Silverwings asked, suddenly getting nervous
What he means is, Cloudjumpper stated is that no one has ever performed that particular operation on a human before. And, quite frankly, I doubt that a human would be capable of surviving.
But we can do it with other dragons.Silverwings said Why wouldn't it work on a human as well?
Because we dragons are a lot stronger then our human counterparts.Toothless said And the operation, when done upon a dragon, takes a lot of energy and strength. Something that humans don't have enough of
Are you implying that my boy is week?! Silverwings screeched
Silverwings,Toothless said Your boy broke down crying in front of the entire village and Berserker army. No offence, but he is not mentally fit to have this operation done upon him.
What do you know? Silverwings said under her breath
Silverwings! Toothless exclaimed What you are implying may actually kill your boy! He probably wouldn't be able to survive the first step! You asked for our opinion, and we gave it. Do not attempt this Silverwings. For it might end in a disaster
Says who?!
I do. Toothless growled as he spread his wings in a threatening way Your alpha commands it. Do. Not. Attempt.
Very well.Silverwings said I shall now take my leave. And with that she flew off to her boy's house. Finding him still in his bed, sleeping soundly.I can't tell you how much that I wish to speak with you she crooned at him as she curled up around his body and quickly fell asleep as well. Little did she know, that come this time tomorrow, she would be fretting for his life.
Hey guess what! I just hear that "Drago Bludvist" in Latin means "Dragon Dictator"
Cool right?! Now I'm not sure if this is correct or not, but if it is…DreamWorks chose his name wisely XD '
Let me know it what I heard was right or wrong
Until next week!
