Hiccup's P.O.V
The night sky had already covered the sky. It was a clear night, with the steady wind blowing, I left Eret and some other men on charge for the night. Meanwhile, I myself, slacked around in my room.
I was laying down on the bed, with the diary that I just found on my hands. I read every page of it, and concluded that the owner of the diary really wanted to explore the world like I do. It said that she was a wormbook in the class, but a wormbook that insisted to explore the world like never before. She might be a wormbook, but in the diary, it was mentioned that she kicked 5 strangers' asses to protect her sister, Anna Queen. So, she used to kick ass.
Her last name, "Queen", sounds pretty royalty to me. I also learned that her family was rich, their parents were a part of the royalty of a kingdom in Norway. I also used to live in Norway, but just very far away from the kingdom's area, I kinda felt jealous of the sisters' parents. They must had this big-personal library where it kept all kind of books about the world. But because of this 'rich' career, their parents were so distant to them. So the sisters pretty much grew up with books instead of humans.D
I could only wonder how Elizabeth "Elsa" Queen really looked like, and her sister. They might be pretty, since they were daughters of rich parents.
I turned to the next page, after reading the page that told a story on how Elsa kicked some strangers' asses. Then, a strand of hair fell onto my chest. I grabbed it, and it looked like... platinum? Most people would call it blonde, but this was much more to a platinum colour.
"I'm guessing that she's blonde, then. But, a bit more special." I said to myself.
"Blondie! Hookers! Hookers!" Toothless spoke all in sudden, flapping its wings while standing on my desk.
"Toothless! Not all of them are hookers!" I angrily said, letting the strand of hair fell into nowhere.
I turned my attention back to the diary, but yawned right after it. I decided to call it a day and drift off to the dreamland.
3 hours later
3rd person P.O.V
Outside the captain's room, things were going well. Eret son of eret kept an eye on his compass, making sure that the ship would go en route. He also kept an eye on the sea right in front of him, who knew that a Kraken would show up and eat the ship by whole.
Suddenly, a thunder noise came from far away. Eret, who was laying down on the deck, immediately stood up and looked for the source of the thundering noise. There he saw it, around 3 miles ahead, a raging sea with lightnings lighting up the whole place.
Seeing this, Eret rushed himself to the captain's room. He knocked it, but no sign. He knocked it again, but more hardly.
"... Who's there?" Hiccup answered in a sleepy tone inside the room.
"It's me, capt. Eret!"
"...Come in."
He twisted the door handle, and entered the room.
"What is it, Eret?" Hiccup sat down on the bed, placing a hand on his face and rubbed it.
"Capt, we have a storm coming, around 3 miles ahead!"
Hiccup's eyes went wide after hearing this. He immediately changed up from his sleeping outfit to his usual captain's clothes (Just see Jack Sparrow's outfit from the Pirates of Caribbean, just without the robe. I don't own this btw).
Hiccup rushed outside, and saw one of his most terrible nightmare; a raging storm with lightnings ahead of the ship. He stared at it for a moment, trying to clear his mind.
He took a deep breath, "Okay... start procedure "Storm-sweeper", wake up every crew and do your job." Hiccup said, walking up to the poop deck. "Yes sir."
Unlike any other sea travellers, Hiccup Haddock set up some procedures to defend the ship and the lifes it contained. Procedure storm sweeper was one of the procedures. Basically, the procedure was letting the captain holding down the steering of the ship, and the crews using their instinct to avoid the incoming obstacle, such as high waves, ice berg, whirpool, and all kind of obstacle by adjusting the sails, taking out waters on the ship, and hold onto something. AND praying.
Hiccup looked down to his compass, and according to it, the ship was heading towards the Caribbean. The storm was between him and the mostly-unexplored-and-contained-secrets Caribbean. Nevertheless, he didn't turn the steering.
The ship was now in the middle of the storm. Waves after waves crashed onto the ship's belly hardly, it sounded so hard like the ship had collided with a rock or something. Hiccup commanded the crew to hold on. Sea water made every single of the crew became wet, even the ones inside the ship.
Because of the slippery floor, Hiccup slipped. His forehead landed hardly on the floor, leaving a bruise on it. He groaned in pain, until he looked up at the front of the ship.
A giant wave, higher than the ship, heading towards his direction.
Hiccup went blank for a second, then he gained up.
"HOLD ONTO SOMETHING!" He shouted, grabbing back the steering.
Hiccup turned the steering to the right, trying to take the ship to a part of the wave where it seemed to be less steeper. With every second passed, he finally made it onto the less steeper part, then the worst part came.
The ship went from wave-climbing to wave-sliding. When the ship turned down, the view of the front of the ship turned from the night sky, into the back of the wave, which shaped like the biggest slide in the world. Hiccup took a grip on the steering, and made sure that the steering was leading forward, and silently prayed.
The ship slid on the back of the giant wave, like a kid sliding on a slide.
And made it safely.
Hiccup exhaled in relieve, but what he saw ahead again, was more waves incoming.
He put on his pirate's hat, and his compass on his right hand, and the steering on his left hand.
'Thor help me...'
-time jump-
With the professional captain commanding the crew on how the ship should go, the whole lifes it contained including the ship itslelf managed to crawl every single wave. And since the waves were enormous, the ship actually went passed the whole storm, and ended up floating on a calmer sea, but yet still raining.
Hiccup was laying on the floor, feeling exhausted after 2 hours of fighting mother nature. He built up some power and stood up, walking down to his room to pick up his map.
He came out back with 2 maps instead, one belonged to himself, the other one belonged to Captain Elsa's old map. He thought that he could do some comparison on where he's currently at the moment. There would be always 2 different points if you used 2 different maps at the 1600s.
Hiccup commanded the crew to check the ship, in and out, before going back to the poop deck. He opened both of the maps, and the two of them almost looked the same. The whole Europe landscape was there, leaving some unknown part at the Caribbean direction. The size was almost the same as well. Hiccup saw a marked point, which might be a point where Captain Elsa recently at. But he cared none.
He checked for the wind speed with his finger, an old way to calculate the wind. Then he took another check for his compass, and it told that the ship was going to south west, just like what Hiccup wanted.
With some calculation with his fingers again, he pointed a mark. Seeing from the gap between England and Caribbean, Hiccup must have gone by at least 4000 miles. He should be close by now.
"AHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAaaaaaa!..."
The woman's voice echoed in the whole sea, but she's no longer shrieking...
She's laughing.
Everyone on board went terrified, including Hiccup. Hearing this, Hiccup scrolled back the maps and put them on his pants. He stood up, trying to think what Hans just warned him.
"A storm will pass you but will consume you in a more vicious way by releasing its nightmares. The nightmares will climb onboard your ship and drag you one by one...
So we have to stick together, simple as that." He flicked a finger.
"EVERYONE! GET TO THE MAIN DECK AND GRAB YOUR SWORD OUT!" Hiccup yelled, hearing this, the entire crew went out from the hold, and create a circle on the main deck, holding their swords and pistols.
Before joining the crowd, Hiccup rushed himself inside his room. He went to his shelf, and picked up the black pearl that Hans just gave. He looked at it, but it showed nothing to display, then he saved it inside his pocket.
Hiccup rushed back outside, and joined his crew.
"Alright lads... These nightmares are no jokes. Whatever the hell they are, kill them instantly with your weapon. They are known to drag men one by one, but they certainly can't drag all of us instantly. So stay together, help each other, and we should be safe.." Hiccup said, pulling out his sword.
Every single eye was locked on every direction, silence filled the air, with just raining pouring and a few lightning.
Hiccup rolled his eyes to his left, there he saw a figure, flying towards the crowd.
A man noticed this, and grabbed his sword on the air, making the figure to land on the sword with its chest.
Hiccup, who closed his eyes, realized that the creature was a... woman?
The man who killed her even felt disgusted, the woman just laid on the floor, soulless. She had this bra, which apparently were 2 clamps to cover her chest, and a giant fin at the end. The rest was normal, like a human being.
"A woman... with fins? Bloody hell..." the man spoke, looking at the soulles body.
Just about that, Hiccup looked up, and saw much more creatures flying towards the crowd.
"LOOK OUT!"
Every man blocked the creature either with sword or pistols. Some creatures that didn't land onto the crowd directly, crawled to them with her sharp claws, but got killed instantly because they were slow. Some men were hurt by the creature's shard claws, but it was nothing compared being stabbed on the chest.
Hiccup found himself not dare enough to kill the creatures, he just kicked the creatures on the face in orded for staying away. Toothless, his parrot suddenly landed on his hat.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The parrot said, flapping its wings.
"I'm trying, okay?!"
After some bloodbath, the crew killed all of the creatures on board. They all remained silent, locking their eyes on every direction.
"Toothless... Scan the water, please..." Hiccup whispered, hearing this, Toothless flew onto the air and went for a quick circle on the ship.
Toothless came back to Hiccup, landed on his hat.
"More to come! More to come! 100 of them!"
"Shit... How far?"
"Around 100 meters! 100 meters!"
Hiccup went thinking for a moment. There was no way the whole crew could handle 100 flying creatures in the same time. Fighting on would not be the best option either, because soon enough, someone's gonna get killed. He wanted every crew to be alive, he wanted all of them to get through of this without missing a part.
Hiccup looked to his right, and saw the lifeboat, covered in a blanket, hanging, ready to be released. He had 4 lifeboats onboard, which was enough for the whole crew.
"Everyone! I've got a plan! Go to the lifeboats, and hide behind the blanket!" Hiccup commanded, rushing himself to nowhere.
"Capt! What are you gonna do?!" One of the men asked, walking to a life boat.
"Like I said, I've got a plan! Just go!"
The whole crew went to the lifeboats, hiding their lifes behind the blankets. HIccup himself, rolled barrels of fuels, oils, and gun powders onto te middle part of the ship.
After that, he went hiding into one of the life boat.
"Capt... Do we really have to abandon everything on this ship? By leaving it just like that? We might get attacked as well on this boat!" A man said, which turned out to be Eret.
"Well, do you want to kill all 100 women with sharp claws and fins? I'd rather not. Besides, we'll have more treasure in Caribbean." Hiccup said, peeking out at the center of the deck, and aimed a gun at the barrels.
Soon enough, the creature started to land hardly on the deck, followed with more of them. With no one seemed to be seen, the creatures looked around in confuse.
After there's too many creatures on board, Hiccup pulled his trigger, and sent a bullet flying towards the barrels. And the barrels exploded, killing all of the creatures instantly.
"RELEASE THE BOATS!" Hiccup shouted, cutting the ropes that held the boat.
The boat landed on the water hardly, and everyone started to paddle forward. Hiccup stood up and saw for the other lifeboats. After some paddling, he counted 4 lifeboats, going to the same direction.
Every man looked back to the burning ship, with some fishes being grilled on it.
Suddenly, a hand climbed on Hiccup's boat, and came out another creature from underwater.
The creature just hung herself on the boat, trying to reach the standing Hiccup.
The creature... or more likely the woman, looked so beautiful in Hiccup's eyes. She had platinum hair, which was french'braided, big blue eyes, pale skin, those were a perfect combination for Hiccup's taste.
Eret tried to hit the creature with a paddle, but Hiccup stopped him.
"I'm so sorry..." Hiccup said, before kicking the woman on the face, making her to splash back into the water.
His crew looked at him, then went back paddling the water.
Hiccup felt rather dizzy after working his muscles nonstop with the mother nature. He laid himself down on the boat, and covered himself with a blanket. He gave his men his compass, to make sure that they're going to south west direction, and then went to sleep.
-time jump-
It was already morning, the sun shone brightly on the sky. Hiccup, who was asleep under the blanket, opened his eyes, and saw nothing else except a bright light.
He looked away from it, and check his surrounding, his horror became true.
He was alone.
"no... N-no... NOOO!"
