I'm proud of myself. I did two chapter in one day, one long day. Anyways, read and respond please. And enjoy...
Windwalker landed. Her breathing was labored. Tenor and the others rushed to her side as she deactivated her Titan Wing.
"Are you alright?", Tenor asked concernedly.
"Am I alright? Am I alright?! My nest is destroyed; About 300 of my brothers and sisters are dead; The other two-thirds of my nest are emotionally distraught and homeless. Some of my dragons have no family to return to. And what bothers me the most is how in the world did the Song find our nest, and you have the audacity to ask me if I AM ALRIGHT?!", Windwalker shouted in Tenor's face
"Windwalker...calm down", Tenor pacified.
Windwalker's eyes turned to slits. "Did you just tell me to calm down?"
"Windwalker, there is no point in fighting. What we need to do right now is move your people to safety and find out how the Song were able to find your nest", Re interjected.
"I know how those bastards were able to locate us", fumed Chris as he landed on the back of a different dragon. He dismounted and stomped toward them. He was holding something behind his hand. He approached Hiccup and threw something hard at him. Hiccup fumbled with the thing in his hands and when he finally was able to hold onto the object properly, he realized it was a severed head. But it wasn't just any severed head. He realized he saw that face before. He yipped and briskly dropped it as soon as he found out what it was, but once he did so his face was met with Chris's fist.
Hiccup groaned in pain as he fell to the ground. Chris jumped on top of him and started punching Hiccup. Toothless immediately knocked Chris off of Hiccup and curled his tail around him defensively and snarled at Chris. Chris rapidly bounced back up and ran to Hiccup in a rage.
Re ran up to him and held him back. Chris immediately tried getting around his father.
"Son, what are you doing?!", Re blurted out.
"I'm going to kill him!", Chris yelled.
"No you're not", Astrid growled, standing in front of Hiccup, readying her axe.
"Why are you trying to kill him?", Re asked.
Chris shoved his father back. "Because he led them here!"
"What?", asked Valka.
"Your chief Hiccup, caused them to locate my nest. That head belonged to a Song soldier. A Song soldier that was escaping one of the attacks on the Huo Yao supply camps we destroyed. I asked Hiccup if he could catch up to him and kill him. Your leader said yes and since he was the chief, I figured he would have no problem doing so. I was wrong. Your chief is nothing but a coward!", Chris said with venom.
"What?! That's not true. Is it Hiccup?", Astrid questioned as she faced Hiccup.
.
Hiccup closed his eyes and sighed, nodding slowly. The rest of the mountain-nest heard the commotion and gradually gathered around them.
"I found this in his pocket", Chris said sourly as he threw some black scales on the ground
The whole group was baffled when they realized it was Night Fury scales. They eventually were able to piece it all together as to how the Song was able to find them.
"You will pay!", Chris seethed as he rushed at Hiccup again. Re blocked him and pushed him back.
"Chris, I couldn't-", Hiccup started as he stood up.
"That's the point. You couldn't. You are a weak, pathetic excuse for a man. You are nothing but a coward. You don't deserve to be chief!", Chris shrieked.
"And now because of your weakness, many dragons are dead. You caused all of this pain and suffering! You ruined our lives", Chris weeped.
Hiccup did nothing but bare a sad face.
"You and your tribe are hereby banished from the nest. If we so happen to catch you glancing our direction, you will be slaughtered on the spot", Chris fumed.
The Berkians and Draconians gasped.
"Chris please, there has to be some other option", Re begged.
"Are you siding with him?", Chris criticized.
"Chris, listen to me-", Re began.
"Are trying to justify his actions? Are you saying what he did was right", Chris yelled.
"Chris you need to understand that-"
"Are you hearing this people? My father would rather side with his friend than his own SON!"
The mountain-nest dragons were astounded by this news and started conversing.
"My son listen! Hiccup did not know this was going to happen"
"If he had done what I had asked of him, none of this wouldn't have happened!"
"If you would just-"
"Leave", Windwalker interrupted.
"What?", Re asked, stunned.
"If your allies broke our trust, then how can we trust you Draconians?", Windwalker questioned, tears threatened to spill out.
"Windwalker, you can't-"
"I damn well can. And considering the looks of my nest, they don't want any of you here either", Windwalker said, gesturing to her pact.
The mountain-nest were growling and taking on fighting stances.
"Get the hell out my sight", Windwalker boiled.
The group looked around worriedly. Re looked at his son, hoping he would do something.
Chris indeed did something. He looked back at him with hard eyes and pointed out toward the forest. 'Leave' was all that he uttered.
The allies looked at each other and took to the skies. The only ones who were left on the ground were the Draconians. Re continued staring at his son, failing to break the gaze.
"I'm not repeating myself leave", Chris shouted. He looked over to Serenity who gave him a sad look. He shook his head and drew out one of his swords.
"Don't make me", Chris sobbed angrily.
Re, after a moment, finally broke his gaze and took to the skies. His family following him, except Tenor.
"Come on Tenor, let's go", Serenity said sadly.
He stood his ground, eyes closed, refusing to move.
Windwalker approached him, "Leave"
Tenor opened his eyes and looked at her. "No"
"I am not telling you again"
"I need you to listen to me. You are making a grave mistake if you wish to engage the Song again"
"And who do you think you are, telling me what I can't and can do?"
"I know for a fact that you won't listen to reason. And I will do as whatever it takes to make you listen", Tenor stated that he got into a battle stance. "I won't let you foolishly hurt yourself"
Windwalker opened her eyes wide, "Are you challenging me, for alpha?"
"I won't let you hurt yourself. And this is the only way you will ever listen: by fighting"
Windwalker closed her eyes painfully. She then hardened her expression and opened her eyes. Her pupils were slitted; she was fueled with predatory instinct.
"Serenity, step back", Tenor ordered. Serenity did so, but was really upset. She really hated when dragons fight.
"I will do whatever it takes to ensure my nest's safety. Nobody will stand in my way, not even you Tenor", Windwalker said darkly, activating her Titan Wing.
"Not unless I am the one who commands them", Tenor shot back as he rushed toward Windwalker.
Tenor attacked with full force. Windwalker rammed into him and threw him back. He bounced back onto his feet and charged again. He threw some plasma blasts at him but Windwalker easily dodged them. She threw some too but he evaded them as well. Once he got close enough he pounced on Windwalker. They rolled into a ball, clawing at each other. They tossed and turned until Tenor pinned Windwalker down and held his venomous teeth dangerously close around her neck. He had no intention of killing her, but decided to hold her neck in his jaw, until she surrendered.
However Windwalker placed her hindpaws on his chest plate and thrusted him into the air just as he was about to end it. Tenor yelped as he was taken off-guard. As he was launched in the air, Windwalker quickly threw a boosted plasma blast at him. Even though he was wearing armor, the blast still caused him pain. It hit him in the chest, knocking the wind out of him. He was sent flying higher into the sky. Windwalker got up and threw her remaining two plasma blasts at him, sending him flying higher into the sky, stunning him. She quickly launched herself in the air and caught up to him. She wrapped her forepaws around his neck, angling his venomous teeth away from her and wrapped the rest of her body around him, preventing him from escaping. They soon started falling back to the ground, with Tenor struggling along the way. His attempts were futile as he approached the ground.
Tenor slammed onto the ground hard with a painful thud- even more so with the added weight of an additional Night Fury on him. He tried to lift his throbbing head, but was pushed back down to the ground by one of Windwalker's paws. She snarled as she clasped her teeth around his neck.
"NOO!", Serenity stated on the verge of tears. "Don't kill him!"
Windwalker looked all around her. She saw her pact staring at her. She saw the scared looks on her allies' faces. She saw the eyes of the Draconians-including Chris-silently pleading her not to end his life.
She looked down at Tenor, who tensely was awaiting his fate. She snorted and released her hold on him.
"I will not kill you. There has been enough death today", Windwalker announced as she got off of him.
The Draconians all rushed towards Tenor and helped him up. Chris on the other hand, went back to Windwalker's side. Tenor looked into the gaze of Windwalker.
"Get out of my sight, you...mutt", Windwalker choked out.
Tenor's jaw dropped slightly. He was...hurt. That comment hurt him, probably more than any physical wound he ever had on his body.
The Draconians took to the sky and flew off with the Berkians.
Windwalker, Chris, and the rest of the nest watched as their 'allies' flew off over the ocean.
Windwalker sighed heavily as she turned around to address her pact.
"What now?", a bystanding dragon asked. The pact nodded at his question.
"We will find a safe place to rest our bodies until our fires are replenished. In the meantime, we will...we will…"
"We will what?", another dragon asked.
"We will fight back!", Chris said bravely.
The whole pact gave him looks of shock.
"Not now of course. Later, once we we get our strength back. I have an idea I would like to share with you", Chris declared.
The Berkians and Draconians flew in silence as the headed back home. The silence grew uncomfortable. After half an hour, Hiccup couldn't stand it anymore.
He landed Toothless in a nearby clearing and got off. He grabbed his hair angrily as he huffed.
The rest of the group landed with worry.
"Hiccup what's wrong?", Valka asked.
"I'm what's wrong! Chris is right. If it weren't for me, all those dragons would be safe", Hiccup explained.
"You could not have known what was going to happen", Aurora stated.
"If I had just-"
"If you had what Hiccup? Killed that man?", asked Astrid.
"Hiccup. You are an excellent chief. You are a compassionate, intelligent young man. You are a kindred spirit, like Serenity. I admire that you choose not to kill anybody", Re said.
Hiccup looked at Re and sighed.
"That's all I will ever be. All I will ever amount to: a hiccup", Hiccup said to no one in particular.
"Hiccup, you are more that. Toothless was the one who helped you see that. You two have proved that you have whatever it takes to face a problem. You were able to kill a tyrannical queen. You were able to stop a madman from using dragons to conquer the world", Astrid declared, placing her hand on Hiccup's shoulder.
"Well, it was me AND Toothless", Hiccup corrected.
"Exactly. Whenever you and Toothless are together, you both can do anything", Astrid smiled as she gave Hiccup a quick kiss.
"...And anybody here can attest to that", she added.
Hiccup looked around at his friends. He eyed each and every one of them, remembering all the interactions he had ever had with them. His eyes finally landed on Toothless. They stared at each other for awhile. Hiccup reminisced and smiled at all the memories he had of Toothless. At last, he spoke.
"What do you say bud, do you think we are going to stay by and watch a war without doing a thing about it?", Hiccup grinned.
Toothless wagged his tail and warbled, his eyes filled with determination.
"I take that as a 'no' then", Hiccup chuckled as he scratched under Toothless' jaw.
"That's the Hiccup I know", Re said happily.
"So Hiccup, what do you have in that noggin of yours?" Eret said in his thick, British accent.
Hiccup smirked, "Here's the plan.."
