"Who In Hel Are You"
-On the ocean-
In the middle of the ocean where fish were abundant, a boat was floating on the ocean towards the Island of the Hairy Hooligans. If someone asked the tribesmen though, nobody would recognize it.
It was the ship that belonged to the Outcast Tribe. This tribe was consisted of exiles, rebels and mutineers and their leader was Alvin the Treacherous. He was ruthless towards other vikings. He only cared about himself and no one else. He was currently on the front of the ship, staring at the far distance.
"Sir" his muscled right-hand man called for his attention, his right metallic arm/axe dangling on his side "We're almost at the border of Berk."
Alvin turned and smiled at his longtime friend "Excellent, thanks for informing me, Fegs"
Fegs nodded and gave a sad smile full of history "No problem… Alvin" and returned to his station. Alvin noticed that years of being out at sea had done many things to the once gentle giant. Fegs was a 6-foot tall viking with tree trunks for arms. He was the epitome of vikingness. The only thing that made him stand out was his face. It wasn't a face of a murderer but a face of someone who was already tire of his life, someone who wanted to go back to a life before becoming an outcast.
Alvin was another story. He maybe only 5 7 in height but his chiseled body made up for it. He was ripped. He even made Fegs look like a boy who just started carrying his own weight. Not to mention he had a temper of a Monstrous Nightmare. Just like his friend, his right arm was replaced with a war hammer. His previous men thought that his arm was a hindrance but proved them wrong, that was why they were called previous.
Alvin squinted his eyes and finally saw Berk. "Ahh… Home, at last… Ready the ship! We must be prepared for anything!" all the vikings on deck responded and did their jobs.
-Berk Docks-
A scout saw the approaching ships and sounded the horn.
Stoick who was still telling Gobber and Grudge about what happened in the past bolted towards the docks. The sound of the horn had two messages. The first one was when the chief of Berk arrives and the second is when there is an unidentified ship approaching.
When Stoick and the other two arrive, Hiccup and Astrid was already there along with Heather and Thuggory. When Hiccup saw his dad, he and Astrid walked towards him.
"Dad, do you know who that ship belongs to? I don't think I've seen if before"
Stoick squinted his eyes and when he was able to recognize the flag he widened them and gasped out loud, getting most of the people's attention there.
"No…" he whispered
"Dad, what is it?!" Hiccup asked, alarmed. If his dad gasped like that then something is definitely wrong.
"What are they doing here?!" he started ordering people around "Archers, ready your bows! If something happens then do what must be done! Keep the children in the houses, now!" everyone started moving. Men position up the hills and readied their bows while women escorted the old and children to hide in their respective houses.
"Dad, who are those guys?" Hiccup asked once more.
Stoick steeled his gaze towards the fast approaching ship
"The Outcasts" he simply said. "Stay close and be wary" Hiccup and the other teens nodded
It was tense in Berk as they waited for the ship to dock. It was until a few minutes later when it did finally docked and the men inside went down.
Alvin and Fegs stepped forward and greeted Stoick with a smile.
Stoick returned the gesture with a frown "Where's Alvin.? I presume he's here somewhere waiting for the right moment to move"
The Outcasts looked confusingly at each other. Alvin chuckled and got Stoick's attention again
"How rude" he said "I mean sure, I'm not that well known but even then my face should've been recognized by the great Stoick the Vast"
Stoick sneered at him "Don't play games with me. Where's Alvin?"
Alvin chuckled "Poor Stoick, if you haven't noticed, I'm Alvin the Treacherous"
Stoick clenched his fists "I may be old but I'm not blind. You are definitely not Alvin!"
Alvin shook his head "But I am. You see, the old Alvin was… weak. He needed to be replaced and who better to replace him than me! I'm stronger, wiser and definitely more coldblooded than that oaf!" he laughed and his men laughed with him.
"You killed Alvin?" Stoick simply asked but deep inside his blood ran cold. If someone was strong enough to overpower Alvin then he wasn't taking any chances with this one.
Alvin raised his right arm, showing to everyone his war hammer. "Kill is such a strong word." He smirked as he started rubbing the steel "I replaced the old Alvin."
"Can you cut to the chase and tell us who you already?! Your just pissing me off!" Thuggory snapped as he protected Heather from the deranged viking.
Alvin ignored Thuggory and focused on Heather
"Ahh, girly… So this is where you went… I was wondering whether they killed you or not. I guess they were telling the truth then. Those Meatheads is as good as dead if their village was any indication."
"What… did… you… say?" Thuggory asked darkly
"Oh, I went there earlier and asked nicely to give me the dagger since girly over there was taking her time" he glared at her and she shied away "Do you even want to see your parents again or do you want me to finish them off?"
"Wait! Please, don't hurt them!" she begged
"Oh, by the way, if anybody here is concerned, I took the chief and shipped him off to the same place where I'm keeping her parents. If you wish to see them alive then I propose you give the dagger to me." He threatened.
"I… I can't… I already gave it to someone else" Thuggory clenched his fists. His father was taken hostage. He must not give in to his rage.
Alvin tsked "That's not good… Then you should find that person and bring it to me then." He clapped his hands and smile cruelly "Here's a thought! Whoever brings me the dagger then I'll release any prisoner you want! Whether it's you parents" he looked at Heather and she gritted her teeth "or the Meathead chief" he looked at Thuggory "It's either of them so you better run now before I change my mind."
"Wait! Why can't we get both of them?" Hiccup asked
Alvin glared at him. Hiccup could have sworn he saw that glare before. "Because I make the rules and don't even bother following us because I hid them in a very secure location." He looked around him and noticed all the dragons flocking them. "Nice dragons" he chuckled "Reminds me of my pets back home" he said as he boarded the boat along with his men
"Remember what I said!" he shouted while their ship left the docks "It's either one of them or they both die!"
Heather looked at Hiccup fearfully "What should we do?"
Hiccup sighed and noticed that Astrid was quite the whole time. He looked at her and noticed how frightened she was looking. Hiccup looked towards where the boat was going "I don't know."
AN: And then another arc ends which means another one will open… Stay tune! Enjoy and Review!
