And on to chapter 4, the second part of the movie. This part is the title sequence, which will reveal the identities of the avengers properly and the part that details the rewritten HTTYD up to Hiccup and Toothless' departure from Berk. Enjoy. Please note that this chapter, up until Hiccup's decision to leave was written to the 1st 2 tracks of the HTTYD 2 soundtrack.
Chapter 4: The Boy from Berk.
The page flipped round to show the first, page of the avengers members (each member in human form will be leaning on their calm and happy normal form night fury, then there is a white line bisecting the page and we will see them in their ghost forms wearing armour getting into a fighting stance with their battle ready ghost form dragons behind them.) beneath the graphic was the avenger's name.
-Danny Fenton aka The Phantom and Skyfire.
-Elsa Arendelle aka Cryostorm and Cryofire
-Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III aka Rider and Toothless.
"WHAT! Useless is an Avenger!" Snotlout exclaimed in shock, with other riders yelling in agreement.
-Clara Oswald aka Madam Web and Idris.
-Merida Dunbroch aka Sharpshot and deadeye.
-Jack Frost aka Frost and Freezblast.
-Rapunzel Corona aka Medicus and Pascal
-Eugene Fitzherbert/ Flynn Ryder aka Raptor and Maximus.
-Kurt Wagner aka Nightcrawler and Amanda
-Kitty Pryde aka Shadowcat and Lockheed
-Ty Johnson aka Cloak and Darkforce.
-Tandy Bowen aka Dagger and Psyon
-Felicia Hardy aka Black Cat and Felicity.
-Ben Reilly aka Scarlet Spider and Otto.
-Laura Kinney aka SwiftClaw and Sarah.
-Kaine aka Savage Spider and Jackal.
- Jessica Drew aka Spider Woman and May
-Peter Parker aka Spider Man and Andy.
We then saw Hiccup and Toothless fly away, the meeting of Felicia, Ben, Peter, Jess, Kaine, Laura, Elsa and the pair, the meeting in Rapunzel's tower. Several action scenes between the avengers, a few bonding scenes, including one of Merida and Jack arguing while the others egged them on and very clearly Hiccup, Toothless, Danny and Skyfire were sharing incredulous looks. We end on a picture of the avengers with Danny's shield and, like the trailer we zoom in on the shield and see the A (the classic avengers logo) turn into the words Avengers assemble.
Slowly the background dissolves so the words are now on a inky black sea before a fast black shape shots past and our attention is drawn to the island in front.
"Hey it's Berk! It's our home!" Astrid exclaimed.
Getting closer we see that clearly the island is under siege by dragons.
Danny (VO): the story begins on the Viking Island of berk. It is where our first avenger is to be found. Now where is that teen?
Zooming in we saw Vikings running about fighting dragons and we see the fire brigade run past a house on fire.
Danny (VO): No it's not them.
As he said that a catapult exploded in a blue flame. A night fury silhouette flies past.
Danny (VO): Oh and there's Toothless. He is here trying to stop the war. He thinks that if he destroys Viking weapons while both Vikings and dragons are fighting there then they will get the point and stop fighting. Instead the dragons get more confident as they see him as a protector while Vikings see him as a target. In fact.
Thwip
A bola suddenly wraps around the dragon, sending it hurtling down into the forest.
We pan back along the bola's path to a cliff being scaled by a monstrous nightmare. On it is a wooden contraption and a young boy, gangly with brown hair wearing and green tunic, brown pants and a leather sleeveless jacket.
Hiccup: Did anyone see that?
He turned to see the nightmare.
Hiccup: Except for you.
He starts running down the path.
Danny (VO): Ah there he is. That is Hiccup. He is the son of Berk chief stoic the vast and his wife Valka who was taken by and has lived with dragons for the last 16 years (Hiccup is 16 in this story).
"She's alive." Stoic and Hiccup said. As both had said it quite loudly it revealed Hiccup's position to the others. The various parents of the Avengers called out to them.
"You may be reunited later. It depends on them. For now just watch the movie and see how things work out." Ghostwriter said.
Danny (VO): Anyway after Hiccup shot Toothless down and no one believed him all the neighbouring tribes came round for this big gathering. It had been decided that all the new recruits would train to kill dragons together. And thanks to his long-time mentor Gobber the Belch Hiccup was included in this. Why is this a problem?
We see the tribes arriving at port before cutting to Hiccup finding and freeing Toothless.
Danny (VO): Having found Toothless in the woods Hiccup released him and realised that he could kill dragons.
We see clips from the earlier lessons of dragon training.
Danny (VO): This went about as was to be expected. But then things changed.
We see the later training lessons.
Danny (VO): Hiccup started being effective at the training, knowing ways to neutralise the dragons easily, to the chagrin of serious killers like his old crush Astrid.
"Old crush. What could cause him to lose interest in Astrid?" Snotlout exclaimed, with other berkians agreeing. Hiccup and Clara simply smiled at each other and kissed.
We watch Hiccup bonding with Toothless in the cove and even in the air, including the test flight.
Danny (VO): However you see he learnt all this from bonding with Toothless and replacing the tailfin he lost in the crash so naturally when he was told he had won the right to fight the nightmare only one thing went through his mind.
This is where the soundtrack should end.
Hiccup: I am so leaving.
Hiccup is stood in the forge with a large rucksack designed to split and attach to either side of Toothless' saddle.
Hiccup: Got to get everything.
He ran around the forge and his house. Taking clothes, some food, some journals and some important blueprints and pictures, particularly stuff that was connected to Toothless or Valka and then once the pack was full everything but a few pictures and couple journal entries outlining his pre-Toothless life, which were left in his room, were burnt on the forge fire. Then he walked into the forest. He reached a junction like place where the path diverges off in one direction and the rough path to Toothless' cove heads in the other. He was about to go when he heard.
Snap!
Astrid: (Sharp whisper) Be quiet!
Realising he was being tailed Hiccup sprinted down the other path.
Snotlout: Quickly after him!
The recruits poured out of the bushes and started running after the boy. They watched Hiccup dodge into a little circle wall of rock hiding a tunnel entrance. Ignoring the rocks and bushes they ran into the tunnel and charged down it.
When the sound of their feet faded an auburn head poked out of an alcove on the inside of the first corner and Hiccup slipped out and went back to the entrance where he retrieved the rucksack that he had tossed behind a bush as he ran into the tunnel.
Hiccup: (Quietly.) Great! While they are hunting for me down there I can slip back to Toothless without them tailing me.
Sprinting, the boy easily made it to the cove where, practically having sensed the boy's urgency, Toothless stood ready to fly. Hiccup pulled the rucksack off again, removed the storage parts and affixed them to his saddle before placing the harness back on his chest and clipping into the saddle.
Hiccup: So long Berk.
And with that night fury and rider shot into the sky and towards their next adventure.
The watchers sat dumbfounded as they watched the scene fade out.
And there is the end of chapter 4. When I produce the novelisation will write the events of some of Danny's quests and the story of HTTYD but we don't really have the time right now. Those stories, as you know for HTTYD, can take up a movie alone and this movie will already be ridiculously long as it is, you don't want me making it even longer, plus it gives incentive to read the novelisation. Anyway next chapter we will travel to Arendelle where we meet Elsa, Peter, Jess, Ben, Felicia, Kaine, Laura and the night furies. Anyway onto explaining the names:
-Danny Fenton aka The Phantom and Skyfire. In the case of dropping the Danny it makes him sound more serious, for Skyfire's name I got it from g1 Jetfire from transformers and it just works for a dragon.
-Elsa Arendelle aka Cryostorm and Cryofire. Elsa has ice powers and can trigger snowstorms even before her powers are fully unlocked. Once her powers are fully unlocked Cryofire will use ice fire as Elsa and Jack both will favour ice powers because they are used to them. As for the surname it makes sense and I didn't have any better ideas.
-Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III aka Rider and Toothless. I chose rider because prior to getting his powers that is Hiccup's notable attribute aside from inventing.
-Clara Oswald aka Madam Web and Idris. Clara is from doctor who as so I gave her physic powers and added spider powers to create a version of madam web. Idris is the name of the woman who was the host of the TARDIS for a while and the two share an interesting relationship.
-Merida Dunbroch aka Sharpshot and deadeye. This reflects their accuracy at long distance.
-Jack Frost aka Frost and Freezblast. Like Elsa it reflects Jack's icy abilities.
-Rapunzel Corona aka Medicus and Pascal. Yes Pascal is a night fury, and a girl for that matter. While it was either Pascal or Maximus and I like pairing boy dragon to boy and girl dragon to girl. Anyway both look like they do because their shape shifting ability kicked in when they were born amongst chameleons and horses to disguise themselves. Anyway Rapunzel's name is Latin for healer.
-Eugene Fitzherbert/ Flynn Ryder aka Raptor and Maximus. See above and Raptor is Latin for thief.
-Kurt Wagner aka Nightcrawler and Amanda. Amanda is a reference to Amanda sefton, Kurt's girlfriend, certainly during the x-men evolution cartoons.
-Kitty Pryde aka Shadowcat and Lockheed. In the comics Kitty had an alien dragon by this name. Kurt and Kitty are the only time I have rider and dragon be opposite genders.
-Ty Johnson aka Cloak and Darkforce. Cloak uses the Darkforce in the comics.
-Tandy Bowen aka Dagger and Psyon. In the comics Tandy uses psyonic daggers.
-Felicia Hardy aka Black Cat and Felicity. Felicity is the name of the woman who portrays Felicia in amazing Spider Man 2
-Ben Reilly aka Scarlet Spider and Otto. Though the Scarlet Spider is not part of it Otto is a reference to Doc ock who was behind the ultimate clone saga.
-Laura Kinney aka SwiftClaw and Sarah. Laura is faster than her 'father' because of her size and build while Sarah is a reference to her 'mother'.
-Kaine aka Savage Spider and Jackal. Jackal is obviously the perpetrator of the original clone saga. Savage Spider is chosen because I think that till now Kaine has just gone by his name and Scarlet Spider is taken and he is the most savage of them.
- Jessica Drew aka Spider Woman and May. Obviously a reference to May Parker, Peter's aunt.
-Peter Parker aka Spider Man and Andy. A reference to Andrew Garfield, the actor who portrays Peter Parker in the current movies and the voice of Andy in the film.
Any way see ya next time.
