GENDERBEND! HTTYD!
The Viking and the Dragon Maiden.
Chapter Fifteen: Last Stand.
Claws clashed, teeth bit into another's skin, fire scorched another's flesh. Both sides were basically trying their best to tear each other apart.
In the background, Snowstorm and Infernia could be seen fighting, either bashing heads or clashing claws against scales. Deep gashes could be seen on their bodies, blood seeping through.
Ash winched each time a White Dragon was hit or knocked out of the sky. But he had his own problems to worry about, like the approaching Red Dragons coming towards them, planning on finishing the Vikings off.
The gangs' Dragons growled defensively, getting into battle positions. The Red Dragons started backing them, and all the Vikings over to the cliff. Fishlegs covers his eyes, and Meatlug digs then hides her head in the ground, her behind facing the enemy.
Snotlout saw, and his eyes gleamed mischievously. He hopped on Meatlug's back, facing the Red Ones and grabbed her tail.
"Nobody move! This things loaded! I'll let you have it!" he threatened, and the Reds shrieked, and took flight. Snotlout let out a very evil cackle.
"Take about you 'Winds of War', huh?!" he gloated, hopping off the Gronckle's back as the others laughed. Before Fishlegs spotted some Red Speed Stingers coming.
"Guys..." he pointed a trembling finger and they groaned a bit.
Before the Twins brightened, "Why don't we try out that move we came up with?! The Zipple-Boulder!" Ruff's eyes widened and she let out an insane smile.
"Awesome!" they banged heads and got on their shared Dragon. "ZIPPLE-BOULDER!" they took off into the air, and charged, before they suddenly curled into a ball, grabbing their tails and releasing gas, and then igniting it, turning their harmless rolling into a recipe of destruction.
The Red Stingers saw the turn of events and made to run, but they were already flying.
After a while they just kept rolling, before they smacked into a large stone.
"Yeah..." they cheered, sounding dizzy, before falling onto their sides.
The gang cheered, before Snotlout noticed some Red Nadders and Gronckles coming their way. Hookfang noticed too and smirked at Snotlout, who smirked back. He got on his back and they lifted themselves on the ground.
"MONSTROUS WING CLAP!" Hookfang screeched as he flew in a circle, blowing fire until it formed into a fireball suspended in midair, then clapped his wings together, sending it in a massive sound wave of fire, that knocked the Nadders and Gronckles back.
"Whoa! I didn't know Nightmares could do that!" Ash cried, looking impressed.
"Neither did me or Hookfang. So we're the first ones to come up with it! Snotlout! Hookfang! Oi, oi, oi!" he chanted, making Ash smile. He's learning.
Ash then heard a cry and turned and watched with horror as Cloudjumper was grabbed on all sides by the wings, and held as a Nadder dive bombed towards him.
But then, help came from a unexpected source.
Stoick jumped off Skullcrusher and landed on one of the Dragons holding Cloudjumper, and the force was enough to send 'em to the ground. He quickly jumped off and onto Cloudjumper's back and hammered the dive bombing one, then held on tight when Cloudjumper flipped and threw one Dragon off before plowing him down with the other one, then Stoick hammered the last one.
Ash sighed. They were safe.
Ash then looked around to Stormfly, and saw that she was almost fully healed thanks to Toothless's magic, but another screech was heard, and a Nadder with light green scales, and dark red patches, and a horrid scar going from his eye to his claw landed near them.
"Well, Stormfly. Good to see you after so long." he spoke in a smooth yet sinister voice. Toothless growled a warning, while Stormfly let out a growl of her own. "Don't talk to me you pathetic excuse of a Dragon!" Ash now knew who this was. Redshot.
Redshot looked hurt. "Oh! Is that anyway to talk to your future mate?" he asked, before Ash's axe made contact with his muzzle, and he stood in front of the Night Fury and his Dragonic Sister protectively. Redshot slowly ran his tongue atop his teeth, and felt one missing. He growled.
"So your the Viking that I've heard alot about. You'll make an excellent snack!" he leaped, but Toothless leaped back and pinned him to the ground, but Redshot threw him off, and tried to get him on the neck, but then Hookfang got in the mix and rammed him off. Next, Meatlug Tail-Bludgeoned him in the jaw, then Barf and Belch Zipple-Whipped him in the eyes.
They all stood protectively in front of Stormfly and Toothless, the gang forming a wall of their own around their Dragons.
Hookfang snorted, a puff of smoke coming out of his nostrils, "You mess with one of us, you mess with the whole flock!" the gang's Dragons roared in agreement, while Toothless watched with pride, before noticing that Stormfly was getting up.
Stormfly pushed through the wall, now fully healed, and looked ready to give Redshot a piece of her mind.
"When Toothless was still a citizen of your kingdom, you and him were friends. But then you decided to abandon him when he needed you the most. Then you killed Skyglider, all because you felt you can do whatever you want, all because you were one of Infernia's top solders, when in reality, you were nothing but her pet and puppet. Then you were ready to kill my hatchlings, and force me into something I don't want. Well, I think it's time for payback." she knelt down, and Ash understood, hopping on, and holding tight.
Redshot smirked. "Let's see what you can do, gorgeous."
He leaped, she charged.
To Hicca.
Hicca mostly dodged or counterattacked the Red Dragons' attacks.
She fought with everything that she got, determent and strong.
She heard two almighty roars, and looked to see that Snowstorm had banged his head against Infernia's chest, backing her towards the cliffs, but then she bit down on his back and threw him off. He landed near the cliff, and allowed himself to fall off, landing into his element.
Infernia growled, and took to the sky with her massive wings, and blew fire down on the waters, causing them to boil and send out waves onto Berk's cliff sides. But Snowstorm was clever, and hid until the perfect opening was there and fire an ice spike from below the water, hitting her in the openings. That, of course, sent her into another fit of rage, and she continued firing at the water in blind rage.
During the fighting, and due to many Skrills being included in this battle, a storm was starting to roll in, and rain, thunder and lighting made itself known to everyone present.
Hicca growled at an incoming Scauldron, and charged.
She had to focus.
For her flock.
For her family.
For the future of the world.
Ash and Stormfly.
After a good bit of beating each other, senseless, took flight away and tried to get away from the lust-crazed Nadder, but he was persistent and followed.
They needed a plan, before everything went to Hell. Ash then looked over at Berk's mountain, and faintly remembered hiking the forests and mountains with Stoick and the gang. He remembered every single cave that they entered, every single stalactite and stalagmite, and even remembered the giant air pocket, that had a maze of tunnels leading anywhere. Too bad Redshot didn't.
A smirk came to Ash's face. He spotted a torn white flag and dived down, snatching it, causing it to rip, into a long, wide piece of cloth.
"I have an idea. Do you trust me, Storm?" he asked, holding the cloth in front of her.
She didn't even hesitate. "Always have, always will." he smiled, and wrapped the cloth around her head, covering her eyes, like a blindfold.
"Just listen to my voice, feel my moves, and we can do this. You and me." he hugged her neck, "As one."
He patted behind her wing. She smirked, remembering the solider singles they practiced. Faster.
She picked up speed. Ash smirked, before opening his hand and letting only his fingers touch her scales, before turning them in a circle on her scales, before quickly drawing down. Spiral Spine Shot Behind.
She shot several spines out behind her in a spiral formation, almost hitting Redshot, only encouraging him to pursue them.
"Alright, here we go." he whispered, as he directed them toward the mountain towards one of the tunnels. He pulled sideways, still holding on. Barrel Roll.
They zipped through the cave, Redshot following close behind, both of them, unaware of a certain black Dragon following them.
Ash blew down on Stormfly's neck. Firelight.
She opened her mouth, letting out a low flame, but not firing at anything, just enough to light the path ahead.
They flew by the obstacles that Ash directed the blindfolded Stormfly through the caves, her complete and absolute faith in him, while Redshot, who had no clue what would come next, and didn't adapt to Stormfly's Firelight trick, kept running into the many stalactites and stalagmites, and even into the walls, before going the right way towards them.
They soon came across the air pocket Ash thought of, and hide, leaving Redshot zooming into the area, with no clue where they went.
Redshot couldn't see them anywhere in the dim lit cavern, and a dark look overtook his eye.
"Is this what it has come to, Stormy? First to be with that Eel-bag, Skyglider, then to be mateless, with three hatchlings, and then to resort to a Human's needs like a pet." he said in a mock-comfort tone, causing a slight growl to echo off the cavern, making Redshot smirk.
"I'll make you a deal, love. Ever since the Night Fury left, I've been promoted as Beta by the Red Queen herself. I'm sure that after this war, I can convince her to let you join the flock, and you wouldn't have to worry about anything. You could have everything. All you have to do, is get rid of the Night Fury and that boy. Even the hatchlings could come along. Well, what's left of them when I'm done..." that last one, he chuckled insanely at.
Just then, a white blindfold glided feather-style in front of him... from up above!
He looked up, just in time to see Ash come towards him, axe raised, ready to swing.
Redshot moved at the last second. Ash landed on his feet like a cat, and they both began to circle on one another on their little platform.
Redshot chuckled, evilly. "Where's Stormy?" Ash smirked, looking above him. Redshot did too, and saw...
Stormfly perched on a stalactite, which they had enough time to stick under some rocks that the Twins saved, next time they hiked up here to have a Rock-Fight. Like a Snowball fight, only more painful, on a small cliff near the ceiling.
She jumped on it once... twice... thrice...
"TIMBER!" she flew away, dive-bombing towards them, and Ash got on at the last minute, as Redshot stood paralyzed as the rocks came crashing down on him.
They looked at the pile of boulders, before sighing. His actions decided his fate.
Just then the entire mountain seemed to shake, before some stones and stalactites and stalagmites starting falling hardcore down on them.
"The mountain is collapsing!" Stormfly cried, while Ash look bewildered.
"Is that even possible?!" "Ash! We gotta go! Which is the quickest way out?!"
"UP! According to Gobber, Loki's Point used to be a volcano before going dormant. Let's go!" they flew up, unknowing of the shifting pile of rocks and the glowing eyes that shone with anger.
They could see the light up ahead, and would've made it out, before Redshot, bruised and wounded, suddenly appeared in front of them and grabbed them, causing them all to fall towards the ground.
"Redshot! Are you crazy!? Let us go, before you send us all to Draco!" Stormfly cried, trying to talk sense into the mad Nadder, but he only scoffed with a growl.
"Can't you see, fools!? THE RED QUEEN WILL WIN THIS WAR! AND EVEN IF I'M GOING DOWN, I'M TAKING YOU WITH ME!" he cackled insanely, as both Stormfly and Ash started to loose hope...
"NEVER!" a black blur suddenly zoomed in and tackled Redshot off of the female and the boy.
It was Toothless! And he looked so pissed right now!
"NEVER! TOUCH! STORMFLY! AGAIN!" With that, he tossed the winded Beta into the wall, knocking him unconscious for a split second, before he rightened himself up, and glared at his former friend. Toothless glared back, and fired a plasma blast above him, adding more to the cave in and Redshot's screams could be heard as he got buried underneath the stone.
Only his armor, and his tail could be seen under the rubble.
Toothless sighed, before turning to the others, but only got the wind knocked out of him when Stormfly leaped at him and hugged him with her legs and wings at of pure joy, Toothless's wings the only thing keeping them aloft.
"Thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Stormfly nuzzled against him, making him blush, as Ash smirked at him from Stormfly's back, but Toothless slowly nuzzled back, a smile on his muzzle. Ash smiled.
Before the cavern shook again, making them regain their senses.
"We should go." the Night Fury told them, they nodded and took flight upwards.
Leaving the remains of Toothless's dark past, and Stormfly's worst fear behind.
Back to Hicca.
The fight between Snowstorm and Infernia was getting intense.
Infernia would get bolder and get so close to the water, her toes were touching it, and she breath hot breath onto it. Then she would wait until she saw Snowstorm's shadow under the waters and fire again, sending him back down, where it was cooler, so he could recover from the burns.
But she didn't like the look in her remaining eyes. It looked bad.
She once again saw her father's shadow under the crashing waters, and thought she would see a replay of what has been going on.
She'd soon wish she did.
But instead, she swooped in, and roughly grabbed his midsection in her jaws. His head burst from under the water, as he let out a shriek of pain, before she grabbed hold of his waste and lifted him up high in the sky, despite his larger size.
Then she dropped him from a great height, towards the town square.
"Move! MOVE! MOVE!" Snotlout, Fishlegs and the Twins moved the villagers towards the docks as Snowstorm crashed into the ground.
Hicca couldn't hold back a scream. "FATHER!"
Infernia landed beside him, smirking evilly at his falling form. The fall wouldn't kill him, she wanted that. She wanted her own jaws to be his end.
She opened her mouth, ready to finish it...
Before two purple plasma blasts stopped her cold, sending her back.
Then Hicca, fueled by righteous fury, leaped on her head, clawing and biting at her eyes and face.
Infernia, furious herself, shook her large head and threw her off.
But Hicca wasn't done yet.
She fired another blast, before getting back on her head, and getting back to clawing at her head.
Infernia growled under Hicca's angry shrieks.
"ENOUGH!" she swiped a claw at her and threw her towards a large statue of Bork the Bold. It cracked under the force and fell, Hicca sprawling as it did.
Infernia smirked, rearing high, before gas started to build in her throat, and fired, and a moment later, the entire area was covered in ash and coal. One section of coal, being a tad bigger then the others.
It was wear Hicca last stood.
The Red Queen let out a deep chuckle, as Ash leaped off Stormfly and ran over, the Nadder, Toothless, the rest of the gang and their Dragons right behind.
"No! NO! NO!" Ash rushed into the black, and tried to move as much coal and ash as possible, the others following suit. The Dragons just sat back, heads bowed sorrowfully. Ash seemed to grasp the situation, as he fell to his knees, and started to cry.
"Hicca..."
Just then, a low blue light seemed to shine through the pile of coal and ash. Toothless's earplates perked up. He knew what was going to happen.
"Move! MOVE! MOVE!" He grabbed each and everyone of them with great speed before running off, the others right behind.
The ash and coal blew away quickly as a massive explosion blew them away.
Their in the ashes stood Hicca. But she looked different.
Her twin-spinal plates glowed a bright violet, as did her tailfins, wings, and even the inside of her mouth. She let out an almighty roar, that could shake the Earth, before leaping on one of the houses, and let out an even mightier screech.
"She access Titan-Wing Mode!" Toothless cried, a look of excitement on his face, as Ash gaped at him like a fish. That was what a Night Fury's Titan-Wing mode was like!?
She fired multipule plasma blasts, even going beyond her original shot limit, hitting Infernia with everything she got.
Infernia let out a few whimpers in pain through the shots. They hurt! That was good. It meant she wasn't completely invincible.
"FIGHT ME, YOU TRAITOROUS PIECE OF EEL DROPS!" Hicca screamed, shooting towards the sky, the blood-lusting Queen right behind her. Every single Dragon, both Red and White, stopped to watch the fight, and watched as the Beta of the White Kingdom and the Queen of the Red Kingdom disappeared among the grey clouds.
Cloudjumper landed near the teens, and Stoick jumped off, walking towards Ash to stand next to him, before turning to Snowstorm, who slowly got up and watched the clouds for any signs for his adopted hatchling.
Stoick made his way toward him, before he was standing between his tusk. "Will she be okay?" he asked, hoping that maybe he could tell the future and just tell him she will win and fly down the clouds safe and sound.
Snowstorm knew that, and closed his eyes to concentrate on his powers of Prediction, but could see nothing.
"That I can't see. This all hangs in what Littlefire does here and now." Stoick sighed. He was afraid he would say that.
"One thing is certain." he turned to Gobber, who was now standing next to the teens, who were actually really close, as well as their Dragons. "That girl is defiantly yours and Val's girl. Every bit of the stubborn, boar-headed Vikings you two ever were." Stoick aloud a small smile to crawl onto his lips, before he turned back to the battle. The battle that couldn't be seen.
Meanwhile, up in the clouds, Infernia had already lost what she intended to make her lunch. She spun in a circle, trying to find the Soulwing, but couldn't even see her purple glow through the dark clouds.
"SHOW YOURSELF! AND YOU CALL ME THE COWARD!" she screeched, her voice echoing down below, for the entire village to hear.
She heard Hicca growl in the darkness.
"It's bad enough that you had to send killers to do me in all because I was one of your father's greatest and most powerful creations, besides Dragons. But it is completely another when you harm my father," a purple blast shot from behind and hit her in the neck.
"My brother!" another blast hit her in the chest, making her moan.
"My flock!" another one to the waste.
"My friends!" one to the leg.
"Even my BIRTH HOME!" another powerful blast hit her in the head. Infernia growled.
"ENOUGH!" she let out a torrent of fire like before and it lit up the clouds around her like lanterns.
Hicca was unaffected.
"I didn't want it to come to this, Infernia. But you give me no choice. Now FIGHT ME!" flying out of the clouds and right in front of her face, and fire at one of her good eyes. Infernia screeched, before trying to bite her and sallow her whole, but she missed, and Hicca dived downward, the Blood Queen close behind.
As the clouds around them dissipated quickly, it became clear what she was heading for if she didn't pull up.
Straight to Berk's Village.
Hicca waited.
She was ready.
Infernia had her in her sights, her horn keeping her in aim. She glared.
"You are a fool if you thought you could defeat me. I can easily defeat any puny Dragon!"
That made Hicca growl as she heard the gas in her throat start to build.
"I'm not just any Dragon. I'm half Dragon, half Human." as she said this, she felt a powerful blast begin to rise up to her throat. "Dragons can adapt," she got her wings ready for what she was going to do next.
"And Humans NEVER GIVE UP!" she spun and fire one of the most brightest, most biggest, most powerful plasma blast she ever shot, and it hit dead center into her mouth, igniting the gas within her.
"No..." the Queen's voice began to tremble as she realized.
Fishlegs's eyes had widened in realization too.
"Dragons aren't fireproof on the inside." he whispered, but the gang heard, and their eyes widened too.
"NO! NO! THIS CAN'T BE!" she cried as she felt her insides burn and her wings evaporate like paper on fire. Hicca pulled up and hightailed out of their, just as Infernia made contact with the ground, causing a massive explosion.
Snowstorm saw, and quickly wrapped his paws around the whole village and shielded them from the explosion, as the Dragons took flight to avoid the fire waves.
Hicca, on the other hand, was still trying to get out of their. Her wings flapped furiously as she dodged every single spine.
Then she made a big mistake.
She looked behind her to see the flames.
Not noticing the massive clubbed tail coming her way.
She looked and her eyes widened with horror and she tried to dodge it.
But she moved too late.
At first she felt unimaginable pain, then she saw no more.
WOOO! That was harder to write then you think! Sorry if it's too short. I sometimes can't really tell.
We are almost near the end. Like probably to or three chapters more and I can probably get her prequel back up and running and get started on the sequel I'm working on.
Luv ya! Buh-bye
