Chapter 6 Thank you, people, very much for continuing this story hope you enjoy this as well as I do when I write this.
The sun is up...
Lacie woke up and found the sun already up. She started panicking and started running towards the village to her cell before anyone noticed she was missing. She slipped into her cell and pretended to be in a deep sleep. She heard a knocking on the bars of her cell and she jolted at the sudden loud noise. She looked at who knocked on the cell and saw a grim face with who knows what.
"I take it that you don't seem to be happy about something," Lacie said just to be honest.
"I don't trust you one bit and yet you wormed your way into the chief's son's head. You start playing games but you aren't fooling me I know what you are and you aren't going to get away with it." Lacie blinked at the man and he was gone instead there was a man with a bucket on his head giving her breakfast.
"Here you go, miss, you'll be needing it." He handed her some fish and a stale piece of bread. She eyed it closely and gave it back to the dude.
"Thanks but no thanks I'm good." He looked sad when Lacie gave to back to him but it didn't change her mind about it. She spent her time in the cell for a while before anyone came to get her then she was walked over to the great hall where many people were waiting for her. She was brought to the table where everyone had eyes on her she couldn't help but think that they weren't as cooperative as Hiccup and the others were. She sat down and she just listened to the people complaining about well everything which she got bored real easily. When they were finished discussing the basics of the village needs onto dealing with Lacie.
"So with the matter of Lacie who trespassed onto out island and also assaulted the chief," Gobber said off a piece of paper.
"I'd say let her in the cell to rot the rest of her life." Lacie put up her hand and everyone noticed.
"Uhm, if I can say something I have something urgent to do so can we wrap this up with me and Stoick here are good buddies. So that makes it what put that whole past behind us and all well and everything has ended well." They all looked at her with an angry face and she knew she probably said the wrong thing to them. "And this is why I do things alone." Things later got heated up into an argument until Stoick pounded his hand on the table. Everyone went silent after that looking at Stoick, who was frowning to everyone since they were talking about something stupid. By the time, everything was done Lacie was let go with no punishment and a massive headache.
"Hey, you alright, Lacie." Lacie had her thumb and middle finger on the bridge of her nose. She held up her hand to give her a minute and just gave some breaths.
"I never thought once in my life that a group of people like them could give me a headache. My God, they are going around in circles. Hiccup, never again am I going to go through another meeting of this tribe. I'll never keep my patience with those people."
"Okay, so are you ready?"
"Ready? I'm always ready since I have nothing to take with me."
"Good point so how are you going to get there?"
"Not sure but I think I have a plan. Just swim long enough to whatever the place you have Mir on."
"The flight is more than half's a day away you expect me to believe that you can swim there."
"Meh, I've done my share of unbelievable stuff and that is going to be another story for another time." Lacie walked away from Hiccup and went over to the docks. Hiccup stopped Lacie from jumping into the ocean.
"Lacie, you can get on one of the dragons and ride the way there. There is no need for you to be swimming in the ocean to get there."
"Right. There was that option to consider." Hiccup went onto Toothless and started flying. Lacie went onto Astrid's dragon and they just took off. During the whole trip, it was quiet too quiet which made Lacie uneasy. She couldn't stop looking around at the ocean searching for something until Astrid finally said.
"Would you quit squirming around back there it's hard to fly here with you twisting your body so much."
"Sorry, it's just quiet. I've never had quiet before everything went down south."
"Do you mean when you lost Mir or when you were on the hunter's ship?"
"Before all that, before I was on their ship and before I met Mir. All was quiet and I kind of liked it the quietness you know had more time to think about everything in your life. Now, I just have to think about the present and that's all there is to it."
"Lacie," Astrid said in a soft kind of tone where it almost sounded like sadness.
"I'm fine really. I really am fine. Even if I'm not I'll tell myself that I am millions of times. Today doesn't make it any different."
"You can't keep living like this, Lacie. It's not a life anyone should have. No one should live like this, Lacie."
"Sometimes, I think that I deserved all of it. You have no idea what I've been through even if you think that being on that ship must be the most horrifying thing you have ever seen but I've had worse than that. Oh yeah, before you say anything else is it okay if I just drop down and do something out of the ordinary."
"What? Why?"
"I'll give you 3 reasons. One I'm tired of sitting around on a dragon no offense since I don't know her name. Two, I really want to get myself moving and hit something right now and three we are being followed by what I think are people you don't seem to like."
"How are you so sure about that?"
"Well, they seem to be holstering their weapons at us and two who needs 4 boats with very many cages."
"Say what?!"
"Well, I'm getting off see you guys on the other side maybe I'm kidding but I will see you guys after I take care of some business. I've been dying to hit some people for some delicious payback." Lacie fell off of Stormfly and landed right onto the deck of the ship without any broken floorboards. "Hi guys, remember me. Guess not but I think it's time for you guys to have a taste of your own medicine." Lacie smiled as the people pulled out their swords and axes. "I'm defenseless here so come and get me ya poor excuse of a human." They started charging at her trying to land a hit on her. When one of the hunters swung his sword at her when she twisted her body to just barely manage to dodge it. The sword was stuck on the ground and she took that opportunity to kick him in the chest while grabbing his sword. She swung it right to his throat glaring the hunter down when another person threw an ax at her. She ran towards the hunter and hit him in the stomach with the hilt of the sword. He stumbled down and Lacie was on the move. She ran towards another hunter who shot an arrow at her. She was grazed only a little until she bashed him with her hand. She heard something crack but she didn't really care what it was. She took the crossbow and pointed at the other hunter who was more scared at the crossbow than the sword. She shot the crossbow but it didn't hit him she threw the sword at the man and it hit him right in the back. He fell down and she started running towards the other boat with two daggers that she took off one of the men. She jumped off the boat and planted her foot into a man's face. She was standing on top of him and then stomped on the man's chest just to make sure he was down for good or enough to keep him out until she was finished with the boat. She was looking at the daggers to see if they were the good stuff until someone hit her on the shoulder. She cursed at the pain and looked at the person who hit her. She grabbed the man by the shirt and started punching him in the face until he went limp. She dropped him and let the shield lift up as arrows came flying at her. She looked at the shield and was amazed at so many arrows could get some great accuracy. She threw the shield at the remaining men on the boat and grabbed the bow. She took some arrows and shot them at the other ship. She ran out of arrows and she knew she couldn't get to the other ship even if she jumped. She looked at the catapult and got on it. She launched herself to the other boat and looked around for any conscious people. She walked around the boat and she noticed that Hiccup and Astrid were coming sooner than she had expected. She went over to the other boat and she really didn't care about keeping them alive anymore. When she got on the other boat the first thing she did was pull the first person in her grasp and bash his head right into the ground making the floorboards crack. She stabbed the man right into his gut and dragged it to the other side of his body. Lacie walked away from the body that was spilling his guts and blood staining the floorboards that were once brown. She found two more people on the ship and knew that the fun was getting started. A person was blocking another by the winches who was taking aim at the dragons. Lacie started running as fast as she could to the other side of the boat but she was too late the person shot the grappling hook. She jumped out to reach it and hit the ship while the hook hit the ocean. She climbed on board and kicked the man who shot the hook in the nuts watching him fall to the ground clutching his nuts. The man came running towards Lacie and she gave him a kick making him fall onto the ground and Lacie kept lifting him up and punching him hard in the stomach. She held onto his shoulders and kneed him in the rib cage multiple times then dropped him into the ocean. Hiccup landed on the boat and got off of Toothless.
"What the hell, Lacie. You could have gotten hurt out there."
"Well, technically I did get hurt while doing all that. Did you really think I wouldn't get hurt while taking down several people on 4 boats? Buddy if you thought so then you are wrong.."
"What were you thinking then? Taking them all on your own without any backup. By the time, Astrid caught up to me telling em of what you did you were already finished with 3 boats."
"And then, you came back which made things even more complicated. They almost shot you down for crying out loud! God, this is exactly why I do this alone so can we go to wherever you are keeping Mir okay?" Hiccup didn't know what to do with this one but he looked at her whole figure which wasn't in good shape.
"Where did you get hurt?" Lacie shrugged it away.
"Just some places here and there. I'll be fine just need to see Mir that's all so can we get there."
"Yes, you are are riding with me I don't trust you and also making sure that you don't do anything stupid like this again."
"By the way, Hiccup I don't think you are going to like it that maybe 4 or 5 guys are dead on these boats. Hold on a moment, they weren't the first people to die at my hand trust me okay."
"Alright, now we have a killer on our hands."
"Judge me all you like but you don't know anything about me or what I do. I don't care if you don't trust me with your dragons or whatever I'm willing to swim there."
"No you are coming with us and you can ride with me."
"Fine I will." Lacie got on Toothless and Hiccup got on as well. The whole trip there was silent and Hiccup could smell the blood on Lacie which he didn't like it one bit. When they got to the Dragon's edge Fishlegs came out to them first and Lacie got off Toothless. She didn't try to pet Toothless since he was growling at her.
"Hiccup who is that person and why is she covered in blood?"
"She's Mir's rider and on our way here she took out some ship's."
"She doesn't look like she's in a good mood."
"She isn't, Fishlegs. Let's just get her to Mir and somehow convince her to join us and we'll have her learn that killing people isn't the answer."
"I don't think that that's a good idea right now."
"Why Fishlegs?"
"There may have been a slight problem in keeping the twins and Snotlout out of the dome."
"This isn't good." Lacie came in and said.
"I can hear you guys and Mir's gone missing once again hasn't he?" She smiled and started walking away from them. Hiccup stopped her.
"and where do you think you're going?"
"Easy, you had him at the dome thing you say right so I have a good idea how to get him back."
"I don't understand."
"Oh, you guys aren't those kinds of people no worries this will totally blow your minds. SO the dome please." Hiccup lead the way even though he had no idea what was about to happen and showed her the place where they held Mir. Lacie looked at it and cursed under her breath,
"You didn't tell me that Angel and Demi were with you guys."
"We didn't think it was relevant."
"It's relevant when they are under my protection and they are also mine. Not to make them sound like they are an object but you could have said hey you know there are two other dragons one is gray with a diamond in the middle of his head and another one with crystal like wings. Ugh, nevermind no need to explain I'm just going to get them back." Lacie rolled up one of her sleeves and grabbed three different kinds of scales. She took some blood of her own off of her and placed them onto the scales.
"Return to me, Angel, Demi, and Mir. Come back to your master who you are truly looking for." There was a circle around her and a light was glowing brightly until there were three dragons on the ground. Mir looked at Lacie and she just smiled.
"I'm back, Mir, Angel, and Demi." Only Angel and Mir tackled her down and bombarded her with questions. Lacie got them off of her and went up to Demi who was still in the same spot. "Demi, it's okay. It's me, Lacie." Lacie stretched out her hand to Demi who only looked at her.
"Is it alright for me to be near you? Isn't it my fault you are like this? I've done nothing for you and you are still with me." Lacie touched Demi who flinched at her touch.
"You've grown big, Demi. Five months does make a difference on you. So come here and give your master a big hug come on you are still a lilun who came out if the egg," Demi flew into Lacie's arms and didn't say a word after that Angel walked up to her side and nuzzled his nose at Lacie's neck.
"I missed you, Lacie."
"I missed all of you guys too." Lacie stroked the side of Angel's face but Mir stayed in his spot though he looked very sad.
"I'm sorry, Lacie, I couldn't protect you because I was weak. I should have been able to keep you away from any danger."
"Don't worry, Mir, I am fine and you know it."
"But, Lacie."
"No buts anyways we have to get going, Mir and fast. I've spent too much time on this little detour of ours and we are short on time."
"Alright but what about Demi and Angel?"
"We'll take them both of them with us. We are short on time where's your mount?" Hiccup cut in before Lacie did anything else.
"Whoa whoa whoa where do you think you're going, Lacie?"
"I need to go to her side. I told you there is a war going on and I can't just wait for it to subside. I made a promise to her that I'll do anything in my power to make sure she is safe. I take my oaths seriously so if you don't mind I need to get going."
"To who's side if you don't mind me asking."
"Hime's side. I have to go or else she'll get hurt."
"Okay okay, but if you are going then we all are. I can't let you do this alone."
"You don't understand the whole situation. There is a war going on and there will be deaths that I will create all for Hime. I cannot guarantee that you guys will come out of it alive."
"Lacie, you don't know who you are dealing with. Let us come with you and you said that you can trust us."
"I don't want people to get involved so just let me handle this alone."
"I'm sorry, Lacie, but you led me no choice but to have you locked up here."
"Yeah you do that now. Try and stop me." Lacie got onto Mir and started flying away with Angel on Mir's back. They were getting off the island when Hiccup was hot on their trail. Lacie looked back at Hiccup who was coming in faster than ever and was already beside them. Lacie hoped that they didn't do anything stupid but Hiccup started firing at them, Lacie. Mir was hit and he was sustaining damage which Lacie didn't have time for at the moment.
"Mir, Soul stone right now."
"You aren't hurt, Lacie, so what am I supposed to do when using a skill where it can only be used on you."
"Just trust me, Mir like you have always done."
"Fine, I will but at least tell me that you aren't going to do anything stupid again."
"I think you are going to have to define stupid for me because I think I'm going to heal you with your own ability."
"That is certainly stupid."
"It's worth a try so soul stone right now!" Mir began to create an orb in his mouth and Lacie saw Hiccup looking at it. Mir gave the orb to Lacie and started fiddling with it until she started walking around Mir. She didn't know what she was doing so she hoped if she injured herself it would heal Mir as well when she applied it on his wounds as well. Thankfully it worked. Lacie started running back to Mir's back and the only thing she could think of was to use the Dragon Master but that would take too much energy out of Mir. "Thrust, Mir just thrust hopefully we can get there faster that way." Mir listened to her while she got Angel to hold onto her with Demi in her arms. Hiccup was still beside them and he was yelling something but Lacie didn't hear it. Lacie didn't know how to shake them off her trail but it was already too late. She had already arrived at the kingdom and it was already in flames. "No, this cannot be."
