Chapter 35: Elemental Pains

Will appeared in a dark world full of lightning and dark clouds but there isn't a single piece of earth anywhere. She appeared to be floating in space. Soon a voice was heard from every direction. "Guardian, free us of this agony." Will didn't know what to do, she couldn't even see anyone. Then a figure appeared in front of her and looked to be her in her advanced form.

"Gladly but how?" Will asked frightened a bit by this. The figure nodded and told her she already did what she needed to do. "Ok, so I can leave then?" The figure shook almost violently and then shot toward Will and into her. Will wanted to scream but she couldn't. Lightning shot out of her hands, feet, and mouth. Will could feel marks appearing on her body. The pain is excruciating but she couldn't do anything. Will was spread out like a piece of paper but she is as stiff as board. She could taste blood in her mouth and she could feel blood running down her body. The lightning then left her body and Will collapsed; she is out cold.

Taranee appeared in what appeared to be a sea of Magma but it didn't burn her at all. Not even a single piece of land could be seen in any direction. "Guardian, free me." Taranee heard but didn't see anything.

"That's what I'm here to do but where are you?" Taranee asked not seeing anyone. The magma grew like a tidal wave and crashed on top of Taranee, continually smashing her into the magma below. It sunk into her mouth and down her throat. The magma burned greatly as it went down her throat. Her skin blackened in stripes and her insides burned. Her insides felt like her own personal hell trying to make its way out. Taranee couldn't scream and her lungs filled with magma. Soon it left her body and left her limp and out cold.

Cornelia appeared in a beautiful garden. Birds are singing, the sun out and plants of many different colors. Mountains surrounded everything; she found that she is in a valley. "Guardian, free me."

"Sure but where are you?" No one said anything. Cornelia was about to say something when she felt something wrap around her ankle. She looked down and found a root from a tree crawling up her leg. Cornelia tried to shake it off but it wouldn't let go. More roots grabbed onto her and started crawling up her legs and down her arms. The roots ripped through her clothes and covered her body. Blood seeped through the thick roots of the trees and Cornelia screamed as loud as she could until roots crawled into her mouth suffocating her. The thick roots made their way down her throat cutting her insides up. She could taste blood in her mouth, the pain is unbearable but she couldn't do anything. Soon the vines disappeared leaving Cornelia on the ground unconscious with torn up clothes and a bloody body.

Hay Lin appeared in thin air with wind swirling all around her. "Excuse me, is anyone there? I've come to free the wind element." Hay Lin felt silly saying that but no one seemed to be around to hear her. Then all of a sudden Hay Lin found that she couldn't breathe. She grabbed onto her neck as if trying to break someone's grip on her. Hay Lin got tossed around in the air and Hay Lin began to feel nauseous. Air quickly went down her throat keeping her from vomiting. Cold wind started to blow and it cut into her skin. The wind is razor like and below freezing and then it quickly heated up to such a degree that it healed her cuts in seconds. The wind stopped and Hay Lin fell to the ground unconscious.

Back in the Hospital Irma and Astrid sat in the dark for hours waiting for her friends to return and then a Water Person came into the room. "It is done, we are free." With that the person disappeared and the four guardians came into the dark room. Hiccup awoke at that time feeling good.

"We can turn the lights on now." Hiccup said as Irma turned on the lights and revealed all in the room. Will and the others looked different. All of them have marks on their bodies. "Did I miss something?" Hiccup asked

"Yes but no need to worry, we're fine and I think it's time that you two return home." With that Will opened a fold using the heart of Kandrakhar and at the same time Phobos came into the room exhausted and then jumped through the fold painfully. "It appears that we're going with you but first we have some things to take care of here. We'll meet you two later." With that the two Vikings went through. Hiccup had help from Astrid but he went.

The two appeared right in front of Hiccups home. The two smiled greatly and then Hiccup turned and weakly went toward the door. "Hiccup wait." Hiccup ignored her and shut the door behind him. Once Hiccup was inside, he sat down on his bed and Stoick turned around.

"Hiccup my boy." Stoick noticed that Hiccup is clearly downtrodden about something but wasn't sure what. Actually he had a pretty good idea but then again who knows what could have happened while he was gone. At least he is healthy; at least Hiccup looked like it. "Hiccup, do you want some rest?"

"No dad, I really don't. In fact I don't really want anything right now. Astrid is going back to that island. The only friend I have right now is Toothless." Toothless then woke up and looked down and saw Hiccup. He jumped down and wrapped around Hiccup. "Hey buddy, I've missed you." Hiccup said petting the dragon on the head.

Outside Astrid sat on the front steps in the rain. Nothing right now would make her feel better.
