How You Doing Insane Gang!

I am in a sort of rut with Road to Victory, I would like to hear some suggestions as in what would you like the gang to do. Shoutout to BraveDragonof214 for inspiring me for this one-shot with her short story of Credit.

I also added links to the bottom of my profile if you want to check out what each motorcycle and helmet looks like in Road to Victory and to see what my modern Brandr looks like.

Takes place in Race to the Edge; Brandr Michaelson belongs to me as my OC.

Disclaimer: I don't own HTTYD franchise.

The gang was currently chilling in the clubhouse with nothing else to do in the extreme heat. Unlike Berk The Edge was prone to getting bouts of heat from the overbearing sun.

Rarely there is a cloud in the sky while on The Edge but in Berk there is always that one cloud that would block some of the heat from reaching Berk.

"Its so hot!" Snotlout whined.

"Tell me about it, it doesn't help when you have the hottest dragon in the entire Archipelago." Brandr complained as he was leaning up against Plasma that was a walking furnace.

"Touchè." Snotlout agreed.

"Hiccup your the problem solver fix this." Ruffnut added.

"Yeah." Agreed Tuffnut.

Hiccup sighed.

"I can't control the sun."

Tuffnut looked bewildered.

"You can't?!"

A squawk interrupted everyones complaining.

Stormfly landed with Astrid jumping off of her before her talons actually touched the wooden deck.

"What's the urgency?" Hiccup asked as he got up from where he was sitting beside Toothless.

Astrid had a wide smile on her face and her eyes screamed excitement.

"You guys won't believe who's here!"

"Our cousin Lars?" Ruffnut asked.

"Our cousin Lars's severed head?" Tuffnut joined in.

Astrid rolled her eyes.

"No its-"

"Me."

A dragon landed right beside Stormfly and Astrid.

The hooded figure removed her hood to reveal dark green eyes.

"Heather!" Snotlout shouted in glee.

Snotlout grabbed her into a bone crushing hug but Heather pushed him off.

"He's still into me?" She muttered lowly to Astrid.

"Yeah don't worry it will wear off."

"Heather its great to see you again." Hiccup greeted her and pulled her into a gentle hug.

Heather hugged him back.

"Its great to see you too Hiccup."

Hiccup then let go and casual intertwined his hand with Astrid's.

Heather took note of this and smirked.

"So what did I miss while I was gone."

Hiccup and Astrid averted their gaze from Heather's and blushed.

Heather elbowed Astrid's side.

"You have to spill later tonight."

"Fine."

Brandr came into view after the rest of the gang greeted Heather.

"Oh Heather there is someone we would like you to meet." Hiccup started.

Brandr met Heather's eyes and his stomach did backflips.

"Heather this is our friend Brandr who was out on an exploration trip for 2 weeks."

Brandr shook himself out of his reverie.

He held out his hand in greeting.

"Hey I'm Bandr and this is my dragon Plasma."

Heather shook his hand and gave a pet to Plasma.

Astrid gave Hiccup a knowing look over the exchange that Brandr and Heather shared.

"I'm Heather and this is Windshear."

Brandr let out a low whistle.

"I've never seen a dragon like this before what is she?"

Heather gave Windshear a fond pat.

"She's a Razorwhip, I found her while I was traveling, she was hurt so I nursed her back to health."

"Amazing." Brandr said mystified.

Heather let out a small giggle at Brandr's dopey stare.

The sound snapped him out of it and he gave her a crooked smile.

"So what are we going to do now, its so hot." Snotlout still complained.

"While I was traveling here I saw a island with a large spring." Heather mentioned.

"Finally, lets go I'm dying." Snotlout groaned much to everyones annoyance.

They all mounted up and Brandr and Heather talked to each other for most of the ride there.

"Look how big this spring is girl and all the rocks you can eat!" Fishlegs shouted in glee.

Meatlug licked Fishlegs on the cheek in excitement.

Fishlegs and Meatlug dashed off into the shallows to stick their feet or in Meatlug's case paws in the water as Fishlegs handed her rocks to happily munch on.

Hookfang flew upside down over the large spring dumping Snotlout into it.

He yelped in surprise as he fell down into the cool depths.

Snotlout resurfaced and spluttered a bit before shouting "Way to go Hookfang!" and giving his dragon a thumbs up.

Hookfang just rolled his eyes and settled down on a sandy patch.

The rest landed peacefully on the shore.

"Wow this place is beautiful." Hiccup commented.

"Yeah you picked a good place." Brandr complimented.

Heather smiled at him.

"The water is nice and cool!" Snotlout called out to the rest of them.

The twins ran into the water shoving each other and discarding their clothes along the way.

Astrid took of her shirt and skirt before giving Hiccup a chaste kiss on the lips and heading off to the spring.

Hiccup smiled while unbuckling his suit and took off his tunic before chasing Astrid down into the spring.

Brandr then suddenly got nervous.

"So uh...how did you meet Hiccup and Astrid?" He asked her.

"It was 3 years ago when Alvin and the Outcasts captured by adoptive parents and they helped get them back."

Heather really did not want to get into the parts where she betrayed them and all but you know minuscule details.

Brandr nodded along.

"I personally was a orphan so I never had a real home so I spent my time traveling around the Archipelago, then one day I got to close to Berk and Hiccup captured me."

"They were doing patrols because I should up when Dagur escaped from prison so the island was on high alert."

Brandr's answer surprised Heather slightly about him being an orphan.

"Your an orphan too?"

Brandr looked at her skeptically.

"Yeah."

"Dagur killed my adoptive parents so now I' one too."

Brandr smiled sadly.

"Being alone sucks doesn't it?" He asked.

Heather looked down and nodded.

"Thats why I'm glad I found these guys." Brandr gestured to the gang in the spring fooling around.

"Sorry I wasn't here when you first came I was on a scouting mission."

Heather laughed slightly.

"Its okay it wasn't that eventful."

Brandr gazed up into the sun and then back to Heather.

"Would you like to join me in the spring?"

Heather smiled. "I would love too."

Heather and Brandr soon joined everyone else in the fun.

Soon it was time to head back to the Edge and the gang was nice and cooled off. It was also great too that Snotlout stopped complaining.

It was late and the friends and dragons retired to their homes to sleep.

Heather would be bunking with Astrid.

"So Astrid you never told me how you and Hiccup got together." She said slyly.

Astrid turned pink and sighed.

"Fine, I will tell you since I promised."

"After you left a week later Bran came back." "At that time we known Brandr for a week and then he went on the scouting mission for 2 weeks."

"Brandr is like another brother to me so we got close and the funny thing is that Hiccup got jealous."

Heather interrupted by holding up her hands.

"Wait, Hiccup, the Hiccup that we have both known was jealous of Brandr because you guys spent so much time together."

Astrid was smiling and nodding.

"Yep and then we got into an argument and he accidentally told me his feelings about me and now we are here."

"Whatever happened between Brandr and Hiccup?"

"Well from what Hiccup told me later was that he was trying to get us together and he won 4 silver because the rest of the gang had a bet on us."

"So basically Brandr is the reason how you two got together?"

"Yep by the way I see how you look at him." Astrid said slyly like Heather did before.

It was Heather's turn to flush pink.

"I don't know what your talking about."

Astrid elbowed her.

"Come on I see how you two look at each other."

Heather narrowed her eyes as she remembered the exact same conversation she had with Astrid about Hiccup.

Astrid smiled widely knowing that she is thinking about the same conversation.

"He's cute."

Heather scoffed.

"Sure if you like that charming supportive best friend thing."

Little did the two know was that the guys were having the same conversation.

Brandr was at Hiccup's hut helping him make his new and improved flight wings.

"So what do you think about Heather?" Hiccup asked as he was screwing pieces together.

"She's cool I guess, she has that fiery personality like Astrid." Brandr grunted as he hammered metal into the correct form that Hiccup needed.

Hiccup got in a crooked smile on his face mentioning Astrid.

"Yeah you get used to it."

"You guys seem to have a lot in common." Hiccup pointed out.

"Yeah with being an orphan and having no family kind of thing."

Hiccup stopped working and got a serious look on his face.

Brandr noticed his mood change and became alarmed.

"What?" "What's wrong?"

Hiccup sighed.

"What exactly did she say about her parents?"

"She didn't say anything about her real parents only that Dagur killed her adopted ones." Brandr replied shrugging.

Hiccup placed a hand on Brandr's shoulder.

"Look there is probably a reason why she didn't tell you this right off but when Heather came back she was hunting down Dagur for slaughtering her village and parents, she had this horn with a chief seal on it claiming it was her real father's."

"When I took a closer look at it it was my dad's seal."

Brandr's eyes got significantly wide at this part.

Hiccup gave him a short laugh.

"No its not what you think, my dad gave that horn to Oswald the Agreeable's daughter as a present for her birth and Dagur's father is Oswald the Agreeable which means Dagur is Heather's brother."

Brandr was silent, he was just trying to process everything that Hiccup told him.

He broke the silence by letting out a low whistle.

"Okay, I get it, thats some heavy stuff to carry around."

"Just don't mention anything about it to her, its such a sensitive subject for her." Hiccup mentioned.

"Alright I won't."

Hiccup nodded in understanding.

Brandr stretched his back.

"Alright I'm heading back to my hut for some sleep."

Hiccup tidied up a bit.

"Okay night Bran."

Brandr was at the threshold and then turned around to look back at Hiccup once more.

"Oh and Hiccup?"

Hiccup stopped what he was doing to pay attention.

"Can we keep this-Brandr motioned in-between them-just between us?"

"Sure, don't worry about it." Hiccup brushed it off.

Brandr nodded his appreciation before heading out into the night.

Heather and Astrid were all tucked up in bed just about to go to sleep when Heather asked a favor.

"Hey Astrid?"

"Hey what?" She replied listening.

"Can we keep this conversation between us?"

Astrid yawned.

"Sure."

Heather smiled back knowing that what they had talked about was safe before drifting off to sleep.
