Woo hoo!

Chapter 14, c.10,000 words, where does the time go.

Well, I've started planning for my next story, called Dragons Live Among the Ice.

As you could guess, it is a crossover between HTTYD and Ice Age.

Anywho! I need to focus on this story right now, so...

Okay let's do the disclaimer, Amy.

Okay, we're owned by SEGA and the Vikings are owned by Dreamworks. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to play some whack 'a' mole.

You didn't need to add that, Amy.

I know.

Okay everyone, let's start the chapter.

Toothless watched as his rider attempted and failed to get out of bed, falling back and gripping his leg in pain. He had seen his master in pain before, but never to such an extent. He walked over to the drawing table and grabbed "his" Hiccup's leather satchel of herbs and placed it beside Hiccup, on his bedside.

"Thanks bud," Hiccup thanked and started to rub in the soothing herbs.

The fact his ghost leg was still searing with pain did little to reassure him nothing was wrong. He placed the bandages and prosthetic on his stump again before hobbling painfully over to the wardrobe. There, he grabbed the crutch he had kept from his recovery after the Red Death and used it to limp down the stairs.

Stoick, Sonic, Tails, Cosmo and Amy were already eating breakfast at the table, talking amongst themselves when they spotted Hiccup limping down the stairs.

"Hiccup!" Stoick shouted in horror at seeing his son in such a pained state.

He quickly stood up and went over to his son, knocking over Sonic and Tails in the process.

"Dad, be careful!" Hiccup said as he helped his friends up off the ground.

"What happened to you, son?" Stoick looked down at his son's bandaged limb-or remaining limb.

"It's my ghost foot," Hiccup hissed as he put too much pressure on the weakened foot.

"But, it's never been this severe before." Stoick pressed.

"That's why I'm worried," Hiccup answered as he sat down at the table and leaned his crutch against the wall, "It only hurts when something bad's gonna happen, and if my theory is correct, the more it hurts, the worse it will be."

Suddenly, a loud roar echoed from outside of the house. Everyone made for the door and ran out to find several of the houses around the plaza blazing with fire; their occupants, fortunately, escaping from their ruined houses.

Hiccup threw his crutch to the floor and climbed onto Toothless, being careful to not put too much pressure on his still throbbing foot.

"Hiccup, what are you doing?" Stoick asked.

"Fighting that dragon!" Hiccup finished, flying up into the sky.

The others followed Hiccup's direction and what they saw made their hearts skip a beat. A massive, metal, machine-like dragon, with white metal plating and glowing, blood red eyes.

"Mother of Thor!" Stoick said under his breath before climbing onto Thornado and flying to the plaza as well.

Astrid and the other teens had just finished putting out the fire, when Stoick arrived.

"Fishlegs, you and the other teens get the rest of the dragons. Astrid, let's give Hiccup a hand." Stoick ordered.

"You heard the chief," Astrid added before parting the others to help Stoick and Hiccup.

"Oh, Thor! What is it?" Astrid asked.

"It's a robot!" the others heard Sonic shout from the back of Turbo, "An Eggman robot to be exact."

"Great!" Hiccup sarcastically remarked, "Just what we need."

The beast opened its mouth to let out a column of blazing fire.

The others were soon in the air, ready to attack the metal beast. It was already combating Hiccup, Astrid, Stoick and Sonic and seemed unmoved by their attacks.

"Toothless, Barrel Roll, multiple shots," Hiccup shouted, to which Toothless performed the move with finesse and agility. It didn't even make a dent.

"Hiccup, let's try a combination!" Stoick urged, to which Hiccup nodded in agreement.

This strike managed to imbalance the dragon fairly well, giving Hiccup an idea that could possibly give them a better chance at beating it.

"Everyone, focus your dragon's firepower on the chest!" Hiccup ordered, to which all of the dragons gathered up their firepower and released it onto the abomination. Once the flames and smoke cleared, the dragon was still hovering with its wings, but there was a massive hole in its chest the combined firepower had made.

"Toothless, now!" At this, Toothless shot a plasma blast into the cavity and the creature screeched a loud, horrible and disembodied roar before keeling over and crashing down into the stone plaza below. The riders landed around it, Hiccup-leaning on Toothless for support-and peered at the mech dragon as its piercing eyes, flickered and died out. Then, suddenly, the eyes flickered on and off, soon beginning to steadily speed up.

"Everyone, on your dragons!" Hiccup shouted, flying up ahead of the rest, as the eyes continued their flickering.

Then, the machine exploded scorching the stonework of the plaza and destroying the abandoned stalls, as well as Gobber's clothing line.

The riders landed back down into the damaged plaza and surveyed the scorched remains of the dragon. All that remained of the robot, was a black outline, and it's charred, severed head. Everyone let out a sigh of relief at the beasts destruction.

Hiccup suddenly felt relief in his leg and realized he was able to walk comfortably on it.

"Hiccup, are you okay?!" Stoick stated in relief that his son wasn't in any more pain.

"I'm fine, dad," Hiccup replied, to which, his father gripped him in a death hug, "Ahhh! Dad! In more pain!" Hiccup groaned.

"Looks like we got rid of that problem," Stoick stated.

"Not exactly," Hiccup responded, "I don't think that we've seen the last of one of these," he gestured to the remains."

"He's right, you know," Sonic added, "If I know Egg-head, he's probably got at least a hundred of these things ready to fight. It's only a matter of time now."

As Sonic said this, darkening clouds circled over Berk and thunder rumbled overhead.

"They are definitely brave, I'll give them that," Eggman was surveying the fight that had taken place between the dragons, "Quite intelligent too, if you ask me."

"I don't need to hear compliments about that runt." Alvin spat.

"Well, why don't you look on the bright side," Eggman responded.

"What bright side?" Alvin retorted, "And in case you haven't noticed yet, I have trouble with looking on the bright side, right Mildew?"

"Right, Alvin." Mildew rubbed his still bruised cheek as he responded to Alvin.

"This bright side," Eggman pressed a button and yet another hollowed out bunker appeared before their eyes. Inside, hundreds of these robotic dragons were being finished up and powered up.

"Once finished, the army will crush Sonic, Hiccup and their friends; victory will be ours!" Eggman finished, "I'd like to see them try to fight off our new army."

Well this was an awesome chapter, wasn't it. I hope I'm not making it too long, but it needs to be said. This story is starting to slowly come to an end-like Brittany Spears career-I'm guessing around chapter 20. Despite this, Sonic and the others will still appear in the other stories, along with many characters from the rest of the series, throughout its course and will join in as a major character during the final story.

Until next time, have a good night, do sleep well and may God bless you all.
