"I will kill him and her" shouted a very angry Thorston. "Easy sis, he probably had a valid reason for leaving" comforted Tuffnut. "Well Belle should have stopped him. Aswell, he better have a fantastic reason that Thor would say is good" growled Ruffnut.
"Is something wrong" said Haddok Girl who had just walked into the clearing. "Yes, have you seen Halburg" growled Ruffnut. "Umm, ya, he said he had gone to check on Belle" she replied. "Ugh, come on Tuff, let's get Barf and Belch" stated Ruffnut who stormed past Haddok Girl. "Sorry Haddok" Tuffnut said before running after his sister.
When Ruffnut arrived at their dragon's pen, she found Toothless, Hookfang, Stormfly and Meatlug trying to corral Barf and Belch who were spraying out gas and sparks like mad. They had uncontrollable movements of their wings, legs and tails aswell as necks. When Tuffnut arrived, he had wide eyes and stated "It's like their sneezing or have a cold. Or like that time we put ants in Mildews pants when we were kids".
"Ya that time was fun. Wait, sneezing?" quizzed Ruffnut. The twins both pondered for a while before both had wide eyes and said at the same time "Blue oleander". "HICCUP, VALKA" shouted Tuffnut as he ran back to the hall while Ruffnut tried to calm down Barf and Belch.
Meanwhile, Halburg and Belle were chasing their quarry. They had just arrived at the giant statues, which had been since rebuilt, on the waters just off of Berk. "Come on Belle, they are probably at the house by now" called Halburg. Belle narrowed determined eyes, roared and sped on.
When Halburg arrived at his house, he found the trap door to the stables open. Halburg had no time to get another type of weapon so clutched his cane in his grasp as he and Belle ran down the stairs to the normal style combined with boulder style stable.
"Come on dragons, eat up" laughed Magnus. Spines, Blizzard, Twist, Frill, Smoke and Spark were all pushing themselves back as far as they could up against the stable wall while the Snow Wraith and Razorwhip stood behind their riders like guards. Magnus was forcing an eel up to their face with one hand while his hammer was clutched in the other. Natania had her Falx and another eel.
"Seems that your precious trainer isn't here to save you" laughed Natania but she felt herself being knocked into Magnus by a powerful, yellow tail. When she looked back, she growled as Halburg and Belle stood in a fighting stance. Magnus and Natania jumped onto their respective dragons, dropped their eels and grinned.
Before even Twist or Belle could react, the Snow Wraith and Razorwhip were flying out of the stable but the Razorwhip had Halburg, still holding his cane, in its grasp.
While the six dragons were left in the stable, the other two went out and quickly locked the stable door, which had pounding being heard from the other side. "You stupid scarecrow, seems we are going to have to deal with you our own way" growled Natania who kicked Halburg in the chest.
"Ya, you won't know what hit you, aswell, a heart broken dragon will be worse for them than a dead one" grinned Magnus who hit Halburg with the butt end of his hammer. Halburg quickly gathered himself up and narrowly avoided a thrust from a Falx into the, important area.
Halburg held his cane up and started a sparring match with Magnus. Unfortunately for Halburg, Magnus and Natania were two of the best, if not the best, fighters of his age. However, with his cane being made out of Dragon bone, specifically a Catastrophic Quaken bone, he could hold off their attacks. Halburg was only alright as a fighter when he had short weapons like swords, axes or his cane even but even he knew he was beat. 'Great, my life keeps getting better' thought Halburg.
"Ugh, this is taking too long" growled Natania who gestured to her Razorwhip. The Razorwhip grinned for it had a long grudge against Twist. The scarlet dragon arched her tail like that of a scorpion and tried to pierce Halburg who always narrowly avoided it in clumsy manners.
The Snow Wraith, who hated Smoke and Spark, growled and charged at Halburg, a tail swipe then followed the swift attack. Their riders grinned as the green haired boy struggled to keep his distance. 'Come on Halburg, think. What do you know about these two dragons' Halburg quizzed himself.
'Snow Wraith, fast, powerful and icy attack but has poor vision and thermal at that. Razorwhip, fast and sharp with a lot of power but ridge plates can get locked up aswell as make it hard for certain flexibility points' Halburg thought to himself. "Right, those weaknesses, will help me in no way in this environment" Halburg muttered to himself.
The dragons meanwhile were furiously blasting the door with their fire and mist. Smoke growled as they then tried to push it, break it and anything else they could try. Spark grumbled but then, the slightly more serious and smarter head of the two, smiled in his reptilian way. While the other five and Smoke watched in confusion of the gas lighting head of the two sparking at the middle section of the lock for the trap door were it the door closed up in, specifically at the lock, almost like a torch cutter.
Halburg was finding the going difficult as Magnus and Natania had called on their respective Catastrophic Quaken, which had a grudge on Belle, and Devilish Dervish, that despised Blizzard, to try and end his life faster. Aswell, Magnus' blood red Deadly Nadder, who hated Spines, with dark purple spikes and Natania's pitch black Thunderdrum, who hated Frill, also decided to offer a hand. 'Oh the gods hate me' grumbled Halburg as he ducked under a cart. Thankfully, his house hadn't been hit. 'My house, more so what's inside it' though Halburg as he grinned at the thought of an earlier finished object that would certainly be useful about now, the trouble was getting to it.
"Give up Thorston, you can't win" laughed Magnus who was standing with Natania infront of the stable door. Halburg, who was hiding under a rock ledge from the hate filled reptiles, growled but then had eye's wide at the door's lock. "Uhm, Magnus" he pointed. "Shut up Thorston" he growled. At this point, a metallic clunk was heard.
The clunk caused the gazes of all humans and dragons above ground to look at the door. At this point, Natania pushed Magnus out of the way when green gas started to leak from the gaps. Then, a single spark made the doors fly off their hinges. When the dust and smoke cleared, six dragons in fighting stances were all behind their owner, growling and snarling at their rivals. "In all fairness, I did try to warn you so don't say I didn't" shrugged Halburg as he leaned on his cane, with a stupid grin on his face.
"Boys, girls, show them how you seven react to being locked up" smiled Halburg. All heads grinned and charged with a battle roar, each tackling their respective rival. Magnus's Snow Wraith however was helping the Deadly Nadder fight Spines so Smoke and Spark found another way to pass the time when they spotted Magnus and Natania. They saw their rider running to the house with them following.
Halburg tripped over a rock and fell down. When he was up, he found Natania to grab him by his shirt. "You Thorston will not live from here on" she snarled and through him to the ground. Halburg backed away on the ground while the two advanced, weapons raised to deliver a lethal blow. "Any last words" growled Magnus. Halburg had wide eyes of fear but grinned once he saw the quite angry orange, purple and yellow faces of Smoke and Spark. "Just a sentence, ever wonder what it is like to get hit by two tails at once" he smirked.
Magnus and Natania exchanged confused glances but suddenly got hit by twin tails, sending them flying against the fence. Halburg sprinted to the house but Magnus didn't care, nor did Natania. They cared only about killing their least favourite Fear class dragon; Smoke and Spark were quite a despised dragon by the two in case that wasn't obvious.
"Come on love, let's end those two" growled Magnus. "Couldn't agree more" snarled Natania. The two ran and tried to strike the two with their weapons. Smoke however hooked Magnus with his nasal horn and threw him over his body before attempting to lash and pound him with his tails, which now Smoke had control over. Spark however, thanks to his longer front teeth, was in a full on battle against Natania.
The Hideous Zippleback had been trained by Halburg but they still both, despite being one dragon, had different fighting tactics when working by themselves. While Smoke was more 'hands-on-no-questions-asked' while Spark preferred tactic and thought.
The Falx sliced at air while Spark analysed the situation. However, a sharp cut on the front of Spark's jaw, thankfully not damaging his teeth but did leave a nasty looking scar on his nasal horn. Spark however, whimpered but then growled, looking more vicious than ever. Natania brought her Falx up like an axe and was prepared to chop off the head but Spark growled and grabbed the long handle of the Falx with his jaw, his eyes locking with those of Natania's. Neither was letting go and neither looked less fierce. One would think that Spark would be stronger but due to Smoke using a lot more of their shared strength, Spark was finding it difficult and Natania was also fairly strong for her age.
Natania then jumped onto Spark's neck and wrapped one arm around the withering reptile. Frill spotted this and wacked her with his tail while the Thunderdrum was trying to get his tail out of a pile of trees that had trapped him in them. Spark then joined Smoke against Magnus.
Natania growled but her Falx was out of reach. Frill roared and charged, his frill flared and his long arms tucked up. Natania took out a dagger and dodged Frill but jumped out of range and onto his neck. Frill found her in his blind spot behind his frill and was crying and growling and roaring for her to get off. Natania had one armed wrapped around his neck and brought her dagger up. Frill then screamed as the blade pierced his frill, a very sensitive part of a Hobblegrunt. Blood trickled down the frill onto Frill's face and Natania's arm.
She then jumped down and struck his left arm and followed with a blow to the centre point of his tail's underside. Frill screamed but when he hit the base of his foot, while he was slowly backing up, he toppled over. Blood poured from his wounds and he found a foot shove his snout into the earth. Too weak to try and resist, he found himself just looking up at Natania who grinned. She held her dagger up while it pointed at where his heart was. "Shame it wasn't the Zippleback or even the Nightmare, but I think Halburg will miss you a lot Hobblegrunt. It seems that the first part of your name is now fitting" she laughed. Frill's eyes where widened and full of fear.
The other five dragons looked at their Hobblegrunt but could do nothing as the six dragons and Magnus corralled them into a corner. Frill found he was helpless but before she would strike, a voice said in a very angered tone:
"Nobody hurts my dragons without dealing with me".
