Hi everyone! Sorry, I'm late, but I had a crazy week. Anyways here's the new one-shot.
Summary: Dragon Riders are already tired of twins' pranks and they declare a war to them, a war of pranks. Interesting who will win?
Chapter 2: War of pranks
Hiccup opened his eyes. The rays of the sun were falling into his room. He wore his armor and prosthetic. Hiccup began to search for booby traps that twins had set for him. He cautiously went downstairs and approached the door. Maybe this time there were no booby traps. Hiccup happily opened the door wanting to go for a morning flight with Toothless.
In front of his door were standing Fishlegs, Astrid, and Snotlout with angry faces.
"Um… Good morning," Hiccup greeted unsure what else to say. They were looking awful. Fishlegs was red and puffy. Astrid's clothes were all in green marks and she was smelling like fish? Snotlout was all in scratches and bruises and from his helmet was sticking up a branch. "What happened?"
"Twins," answered Snotlout.
"Twins?" asked Hiccup.
"Yes, twins," answered Astrid angrily. "You need to stop this."
"They put Buttercup poppies under all my windows and in front of my door knowing that I had an awful allergy on them," said Fishlegs. Now was clear why he was red and puffy.
"They drop on me a bunch of fish," said Astrid. That was explaining everything too.
"And they threw me off the platform!" cried Snotlout. Hiccup was sorry for Snotlout, but it was funny so he chuckled a bit closing his mouth with the hand.
"That's not funny!" cried Snotlout.
"Okay, okay, I'll talk with them," said Hiccup and went to twins hut.
He cautiously entered twins hut.
"Guys we need to talk," said Hiccup.
"I know it's funny to prank people," said Hiccup. "Especially when it's Snotlout," he murmured last part not wanting that twins heard that.
"But you need to stop," said Hiccup. He began to search for twins. "Guys? Are you here?"
He continued to search but he couldn't find them. "Ruffnut? Tuffnut?"
He already wanted to leave when suddenly he stepped on a loop and hang from his leg upside down. Hiccup got angry that he was tricked and yelled.
"That's enough! This is war! You hear me! This is war!" He already was tired of twins' pranks. Twins were laughing coming out from their hiding place.
Hiccup cut the rope with his knife and angrily went to Clubhouse where Fishlegs, Astrid, and Snotlout were waiting for him.
"What happened, Hiccup?" Asked Astrid wanting to know why is Hiccup so angry.
"I went to their hut and said that they need to stop. But they had a booby trap for me. I stepped on a loop and hang from my leg upside down," said Hiccup.
Snotlout began to laugh.
"And what are we gonna do?" Asked Fishlegs.
"War," said Hiccup determined. "War of pranks."
"War of pranks? Hiccup are you sure?" asked Astrid bit of surprised at what Hiccup said.
"Yeah, we will put pranks on them too and they will understand how bad it is being pranked," explained Hiccup. Now it had more sense.
"Okay, in that case, we need strategies," said Astrid.
It was early morning. Fishlegs, Snotlout, Astrid, and Hiccup were hiding near the twins' hut, waiting when will they wake up and fell into their trap. Tuffnut woke up and awakened his sister saying.
"Hey, sis, wake up, we have pranks to do." Ruffnut woke up and after five minutes they were approaching the door where the trap was.
Hiccup made that trap. He put a thin invisible rope, that he made, in front of the door. If you step on it, you'll start a mechanize which was dropping fish on you. Twins came, stood near the trap, and bypassed it.
"How did you know that there's a trap?" asked Hiccup surprised coming out from his hiding place.
"Hiccup, Hiccup, Hiccup," began Tuffnut and continued in the dramatic voice. "We're the King and Queen of pranks. You'll never prank us."
On that time Toothless blasted the rope and a bunch of fish fell on twins. Everyone was laughing, except the twins.
It was already dinner time. Day passed, well, strange. Everyone was trying to prank others but no one achieved anything.
They were all in Clubhouse. Everyone was very tired and hungry but no one was eating. They were all afraid that others will put something in their dishes.
Instead of eating they all were looking into each other's eyes. Snotlout broke the silence.
"I'm hungry! I'm not gonna play your games! I'm gonna eat my yak chops!"
"Snotlout I'm not- "Hiccup was trying to stop Snotlout but it was too late. Snotlout already had bitten his yak chop. And now everyone was watching him.
"They hadn't put anything," Snotlout said with the full mouth. "You can-" Snotlout stopped. His face reddened and his eyes opened wide. He began to scream and run. He threw himself into the barrel with water.
Twins were laughing eating their dishes. Suddenly they stopped eating. Their faces reddened too. They ran to the barrel, pushed Snotlout and threw themselves into it.
Others were laughing. Hiccup wanted to drink. So he took his mug and drank water. His mouth began to burn. He cried.
"My mouth is on fire! My mouth is on fire!"
Fishlegs and Astrid just rolled their eyes.
Astrid woke up. Sun had already risen. She cautiously got up from her bed and began to analyze her room. There were no booby traps but she was sure that twins had prepared something for her. She took her axe and wanted to leave for morning flight with Stormfly when suddenly her axe's handle broke in the middle and fell on her foot.
"Ouch!" she cried loudly. Her foot was hurting awfully. She began to think about how that happened. She was always carefully checking her axe and if there was damage, she was asking Hiccup to fix it. Then she understood. Twins. "Oh, they will pay." She said in a threatening voice.
Fishlegs woke up. He quickly checked his face. Well, he wasn't puffy so that meant there were no Buttercup poppies near him. He sighed in relief. He got up from his bed and carefully checked his room. There were no traps, unless, there were no traps that he could see. He carefully approached the doorway and looked above. There was no net full of fish waiting for him.
"Well, girl. How I see there are no traps. Do you want to have some fun?" Fishlegs asked his dragon. Meatlug waved her tail in excitement. Fishlegs opened his bag and something like porridge splattered on his face. Fishlegs just sighed.
Snotlout woke up. He checked his hut and there were no traps. That was good because today he wasn't going to be pranked. He stood near his doorway with the determined face. Snotlout got out from his hut running. He thought that if he will run twins can't prank him. He stood near the edge of the platform and said.
"Ha Ha! Today no one will prank Snotman!" Tuffnut, who was hiding on the tree with his sister, drop a spider on Snotlout when he was talking.
Snotlout screamed noticing the spider on his face. He went back and fell off the platform.
"Noooot agaaaiin!" was yelling Snotlout.
Hiccup woke up and scanned his room. He got up from his bed and dodged the loop that was near his desk. Hiccup smiled that twins couldn't catch him this time. He stepped back and hang from his foot upside down. He sighed, took his knife and cut the rope.
Hiccup got out from his hut. It was a mess outside. Twins were dropping burning bags with Monstrous Nightmare gel on Snotlout house. Astrid and Fishlegs were throwing bags with paint on twins' house. And Snotlout was yelling at twins because his hut was burning.
"Guys! Stop!" Hiccup yelled but no one paid attention. "STOP!" He yelled with all his voice. Everyone stopped and began to stare at him.
"Look at Edge. It's defenseless. What if Viggo decides to strike? What we gonna do? We need to stop this stupid war," said Hiccup.
"I know it was my idea. But I haven't considered the circumstances," continued Hiccup. "Let's do like this, twins will do only one prank per week."
Twins didn't like that. Tuffnut watched to his sister and said.
"Okay, you have a deal." Hiccup was glad that they agreed.
When Hiccup and Tuffnut were shaking their hands something pierced Hiccup's hand.
"Ouch!" cried Hiccup. Twins began to laugh. He didn't understand what happened. Then he noticed that on Tuffnut's hand was a hidden needle.
"Tuffnut!" yelled Hiccup angrly.
I hope you liked this one-shot. I know it's funny that Hiccup is declaring a war of pranks on twins. But he just wants to show them how bad is to be pranked. Please tell me what you think and until next time:)
