Hello my fellow readers! Sorry, for the long wait on Moana: Dragon Adventure. I was busy with some schoolwork and other stories. I hope you guys like it. Also, I want to thank Sml123 of the clues that the Riders will find out about Moana and her friends. And my friend, FoxyKhai0209, for helping for the ideas for this story.
I was inspired by this son called In Harmony by Jodi Benson from "The Little Mermaid TV Series-In Harmony".
Lani leads the Dragon Rider to the spot where he found the Sky Destroyer. It was long flight, and Snotlout complains through the trip, but they finally reach the island where Lani encountered the Sky Destroyer. They landed on the small island's beach and get off their dragons. Lani points at the small rock shape island close to the beach.
"That's where I last saw the Sky Destroyer." Lani explains.
"Do you know why it was doing here?" Astrid asked.
Lani shrugs. "Don't know. I swam away before it could get me." He explains.
Hiccup walks over to the edge of the beach as he looks at the rock island. He has a strange feeling about the Sky Destroyers. He wonders why one showed up and why it was here. Hiccup was snapped out of his thoughts when Ruff and Tuff were looking around the island.
"W-What are you two doing?" Hiccup dared to ask.
The twins stopped looking around and turns to face Hiccup. "Searching for the Sky Destroyer, duh!" Tuff pointed out.
"…But there's nothing here." Lani pointed out.
"That may be true, Hiccup number 2." Tuff said while ignoring Lani's questionable 'what?' from the background. "But my gut is telling me that the Sky Destroyer was here."
"We know, Lani saw it." Astrid pointed out in annoyance.
Hiccup looks at Lani. "Is there any place that the Sky Destroyer could've gone to before you left?" He asked.
Lani rubs his chin as he thinks. The last time he saw the Sky Destroyer is when he swam away from it and hid at the island until dark. When Sandstorm came to get him, they went to a nearby island that was bigger from the island that Lani was staying. Lani went night swimming to collect some seashells that can glow at the dark. And when he and Sandstorm met…Malie. Lani's eyes widen in realization as he turned to the big island.
"Malie." Lani whispered before getting on Sandstorm.
"Woah! Lani? Where are you going?" Hiccup asked as the others got on their dragons.
"I just have a bad feeling." Lani said before Sandstorm took off, followed by the other dragons.
They followed Lani and Sandstorm to the big island and landed on the beach. Lani quickly dismounts from Sandstorm and looks around. The others followed him, heading towards the forest. Hiccup went over to Lani, who was focusing on going somewhere.
"Lani? What's wrong?" Hiccup asked.
Lani walks through the forest, searching for someone, as he explains to Hiccup. "Few nights ago, I met this girl who I thought was stranded here."
Hearing this, Snotlout came jogging besides Lani after he mentioned a girl. "Wait! There was girl? Is she pretty?" He questioned with a grin.
"Snotlout!" Hiccup scolded.
"What? I was just asking." Snotlout pointed out before whispering towards Lani. "No, seriously, is she pretty?"
"Uh…" Lani glanced over to Hiccup and Astrid, who were walking beside him. Hiccup just shrug his shoulder while Astrid rolls her eyes. Lani turns back to Snotlout, who was waiting for an answer, as they continued walking.
"Um…yes. She's very pretty." Lani answered, earning Snotout to do a fist pump and muttering a happy yes.
"Sooo…what's her name?" Snotlout asked, wanting to know more.
"Snotlout." Astrid spoke dangerously, warning him to stop.
Lani waves her off gently. "It's okay, Astrid." Lani said before turning back to the path. "Her name was Malie."
"Pretty name." Gobber complimented, following them.
Lani nodded as he remembers how he met Malie. "I met her by accident. Sandstorm smelled her close by and kind of startled her. And bumped into me. We talked for a while and I learned that she was traveling with some friends." He explains, moving pass some bushes.
"What's she like?" Tuff asked, wanting to know who this Malie. Then Snotlout punched him hard, causing the male blonde to fall on the undergrowth. "OW!" Tuff screamed in pain.
"Hey! I asked about her first, so I get to ask." Snotlout remarked before turning to Lani, who stopped walking and looked at them strangely. "So, what'd she like?" He asked with a grin.
Lani blinks at him before continuous walking with the others. "She was…shy. Very shy. She wasn't comfortable to be with people." He explains. "But she is fond to dragons."
"She is?" Hiccup asked in surprise.
Lani nodded with a small smile. "Yeah, and she told me, she can understand them." He added, shocking and surprising everyone.
"What?! No way!" Snotlout exclaims in shock.
"She can?!" Fishlegs excitingly.
"Can she really?" Gobber asked, curious about Malie.
"She can speak to dragon?" Hiccup asked in interest.
Lani nodded as he turns to them. "It amazed me too! She understands Sandy like if she was a person." He explains, chuckling when Sandstorm nudges him happily.
"How can she understand dragons?" Astrid asked, curious as if she wanted to know how.
"Well, she told me that she can understand them because she's been with dragons longer than humans." Lani explains.
"Amazing." Fishlegs in awe, wanting to meet Malie to help him understand Meatlug.
"If she can understand dragons, maybe she can help us finally know what they are saying." Hiccup said with a smile.
"Great, I can finally know what Hookfang was thinking about me." Snotlout said sarcastically, glancing a glare at his dragon, who wasn't paying attention to him.
Tuff was walking backwards to face them. "Yeah! I wanna know what Barf and Belch are talking ab-AH!" Tuff suddenly yelled as her tripped on a ditch.
"You okay?" Lani asked worriedly as everyone stopped.
Ruff waves off Lani. "He'll be fine. He's taken worst hits before like the time when we-"
"Okay, I'm stopping you there." Astrid said before groaning in disgust.
Lani was about to help Tuff up when he stopped sudden. His eyes widen in shock on what he saw. Tuffnut was on a small ditch, but it wasn't a ditch, it was actually a footprint, a big footprint. And Lani immediately recognized it.
It belongs to the Sky Destroyer.
"The Sky Destroyer was here." Lani said in shock.
The Riders, Gobber, and dragons got a good look of the footprint. They were shocked to see how big the dragon was. Everyone became worried, especially Gobber. They got a bad feeling that the Sky Destroyer was here. Without thinking, Lani sprinted towards the direction where he could see a path was made, but it was made by the Sky Destroyer. It must've walked through the forest, and due to its size and strength, it moved through the forest with no problem. He just hoped Malie was okay. The others were running after him. Sandstorm and Toothless were able to catch up to Lani. Everyone got to admit, Lani was a fast runner.
"Lani! Slow down!" Hiccup called out.
Lani didn't listened as he quickly saw the end of the forest. He and the others made it to the end and saw that they were at another side of the island's beach. Before anyone could say anything, Lani started to look around, searching if Malie and her friends left the island before the Sky Destroyer could get them. Hiccup went over to Lani, worried on what's gotten into him.
"Lani? Are you okay?" Hiccup asked.
Lani turns to him almost worriedly. "Sorry, it's just that…when I saw the footprint of the Sky Destroyer, I was worried about Malie. What Gobber said about Sky Destroyer despised Vikings, but…I was worried about Malie." He confessed.
Gobber waddled towards Lani and placed his hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry, lad. I'm sure that Malie and her friends must've left before the Sky Destroyer could get to them." He assured.
Lani looks at him. "You really think so?"
Gobber shrugs. "Probably, or the pack of Sky Destroyer must've gotten to them first and already devoured them." He pointed out, causing Lani's eyes to widen in shock and horror.
"Gobber!" Hiccup scolded at the background.
"What? It was just a thought." Gobber defended.
Hiccup and Astrid shook their heads at Gobber. Meanwhile, Tuffnut was at the background, looking at something on the sandy floor. He didn't turn to the others as he looks at the object.
"Hey, Hiccup? Did you and Toothless came here before?" Tuffnut asked stupidly.
Hiccup didn't turn to him as he and the others were with Lani, who was still worried on what Gobber said. "No, Tuff. Toothless and me didn't went to this island." Hiccup answered.
"…Oh, because I thought you guys did." Tuffnut said from the background.
Hiccup slight turns to him. "Tuffnut, why do you think me and Toothless would come here? We never been here before and Lani was the only one who found it with Sandstorm." Hiccup pointed out.
Tuff points at ground as he faces him. "Because I found scales that looks like Toothless's scales." He said.
This caught everyone's interest, except Snotlout, he was trying to fine where Malie is. They went over to Tuffnut as he pointed at the spot where the scales were. They followed his gaze and soon their eyes widen in shock on what they saw. On the sand were some black scales, but they weren't just any black scales, they were Night Fury scales. Hiccup picks one up and holds it up, studying it if it was real. He shows it to the others, who were looking at it.
"Do you know what you just found Tuffnut?" Hiccup asked him, almost excitingly.
"Uuuhhh…scales?" Tuffnut guessed, shrugging his shoulders.
Fishlegs came over to Hiccup and looks at the scale on his hand with pure excitement. "They're not just any scales, these are Night Fury scales!" He pointed out with an excitement in his eyes.
Hearing this, Toothless's ears perked up and went to them excitingly. He came to Hiccup's side and looks at the scale in his hand before glancing at the scales on the sand. His eyes widen in delight to see that.
There was another Night Fury!
Toothless roared in delight as he bounces around in pure joy, happy that he wasn't the last of his kind. Hiccup tries to calm his dragon down, but Toothless was happy that he wasn't alone. Snotlout came over to them, he was disappointed that he couldn't find the girl name Malie. However, he notices that Toothless was bouncing around and roaring in delight. The other dragons watched in pure amusement as the male Night Fury was happy that there was another Night Fury. Snotlout went over to others and looks at them.
"Hiccup, what did you feed your dragon? He's all happy crazy." He said.
"He's happy because we-" Hiccup was cut off by Tuffnut who cleared his throat, causing Hiccup to sigh. "I mean, Tuffnut discovered this."
Hiccup shows Snotlout the Night Fury scale. Though, Snotlout stared at it blankly, clearly thinks that it was nothing but a scale. "So? Tuff just found some scales. Big deal, we got plenty of those whenever the dragons shed their scales."
"Snotlout, these are Night Fury scales!" Fishlegs exclaims, beating Hiccup from telling him. "Malie and her friends must've encountered one!"
"Wait, what!? My future girlfriend found a Night Fury?!" Snotlout exclaims in shock.
"Your future girlfriend?" Astrid asked in disgust with arms crossed. "Snotlout, you don't even know her."
Snotlout placed a hand on his chest. "Jealous, Astrid?" He asked her smugly.
"Ah…no, more like disgusted." Astrid pointed out in annoyance.
"Just admit it. This Malie girl is gonna be my future-AH!" Snotlout suddenly yelled as he fell on his butt.
Sandstorm uses her trail to trip Snotlout, so he can stop talking, and also that she prefers Malie to be her rider's future mate. Astrid smirks at Sandstorm, liking this dragon even more. Lani pats Sandstorm's head gently, telling her to relax.
"Do you think the Night Fury helped Malie and her friends escape the Sky Destroyer?" Fishlegs suggested.
"Maybe, but if it did, maybe we can get a league on where they have been." Hiccup said before collecting the black scales and placed it on his pouch. "Saddle up, gang. We're going to find Malie and her friends."
"YES!" Snotlout cheered as he gets on Hookfang quickly with Gobber behind.
Astrid was riding on Stormfly. The Deadly Nadder made her way to Hiccup and Toothless. "Hiccup, what's the plan? And why it has to involve the girl that Lani met?"
"I have a hunch that Malie and her friends have a Night Fury as company." Hiccup said.
Astrid looks at Hiccup in realization. "And you think that since Malie can understand dragons…"
"She can easily befriend the Night Fury." Lani finishes Astrid's sentence as was on Sandstorm's saddle. "Let's just hope we can find them first before the Sky Destroyer does."
With that said, the dragons took off to the sky, in search of Malie, her friends, and the Night Fury that might be accompanying them. Lani hopes that Malie was okay. He doesn't want her to get hurt.
In the sky, Aliikai was seen soaring through the air with her sister riding on her back. Cayden was following behind with Malie on his back. The two dragons and their riders were scouting around an island. They landed on the island few days ago to restoke. And once they finish, they scout the area if they can find any dragons that were close by and bring them back home. They split up to cover the area. Maui and Keoni take the west side while Moana and Malie take the east side. Pōkole and Heihei were with Keoni and Maui while Mistral and Pua were with Moana and Malie.
Moana scans the area before turning to Malie. "See anything?" Moana called out through the wind.
Malie heard her and shook her head. "No, I don't see anything." She said loudly.
"We should go down to have a better look." Moana said, earning a nod from Malie as the dragons went down to land on the forest.
The two girls and their dragons walked through the jungle. Aliikai, Pua, and Mistral were riding on Cayden, as massive dragon walked through the forest with ease. Soon, they made their way to a cliffside and saw a massive lagoon bellow.
"Wow…" Moana whispered in shock.
Wow indeed, the lagoon was massive. There were some rock like platforms around the lagoon and some rocks that were on top of the water. But the amazing thing was that there were dragons there. But these dragons were aquatic like Makaio, but there were many in shape, sizes, and colors. Moana and Malie were amazed to see them. Aliikai awed to see different types of aquatic dragons at the lagoon before ears perked up when she heard something. Curious, Aliikai jumps off from Cayden's back and headed towards the undergrowth. She sniffs around the undergrowth before walking through it, leaving the others behind. Aliikai continued sniffing around before stopping near a clearing to see three small dragons with an adult version of them.
They were round body shape with two sets of wings, one primary and one smaller set to the rear. They have stubby thin legs and long skinny tails. They have series of backward facing spikes sticking out of their backs. The three small dragons are in three different colors, teal, blue, and purple while the adult one is blue with a lighter shade on his underbelly. They were playing on a lake. The young dragons were splashing about while the adult keeps a close eye on them. Aliikai couldn't help but smile at the scene, finding adorable to see love between family. Aliikai suddenly became somewhat homesick, missing her parents and people back at Motunui. Then one of the little dragons, the purple one, spotted her and soon rushes over to her in excitement. Aliikai stood there as the young dragon runs around her as if she was a new toy. Soon, its siblings join in and plays around Aliikai happily. Aliikai didn't know what to do as she just watched them play around her. The adult dragon saw her being played around by hist younglings and soon called out to them. The younglings stop pestering Aliikia before going back to their father. They nuzzled their father happily before the adult dragon looks at Aliikai curiously. The dragon was twice her size. She shouldn't show any hostility or aggressiveness. So, being the polite dragoness, Aliikai bows at the adult dragon respectfully.
This surprise the dragon, but he could sense that Aliikai wasn't a threat to him or his younglings, and he decided to bow back in returned. The two dragons stopped bowing and the male dragon greeted her kindly. Aliikai made a greeting of her own, showing her respect towards this dragon.
"Ali? Where are you girl?" Moana's voice called out to her.
Aliikai turns towards the voice and called out to her sister. Aliikai turns to the dragon and made gentle croons. Soon, Moana and Malie came out form the undergrowth and gasp when they saw the dragon with three younglings. The adult dragon narrowed his eyes at the sight of two female humans. But soon stops when Cayden came out from the undergrowth. The adult dragon instantly knew that this dragon is a Vahlok.
Vahloks are high ranking dragons. No other dragons dare challenge them for they are loyal servants of the dragon god, Draco. Moana made her way to Aliikai as the male dragon bows towards Cayden in full respect. Cayden snorts at him but acknowledges him. Cayden nodded at the adult dragon in respect as Moana pats her dragon sister's head gently.
"What is that?" Moana whispers in awe.
"A Thunderdrum." Malie answered in shock. "They are aquatic dragons like Makaio."
Moana looks at Malie in wonder. "Really?" She asked.
Malie nodded with a smile. "Unlike some dragons, Thundrums don't breathe fire or spit out acid, they have a sonic roar that the Vikings believe that they get their power from Thor." She explains.
Moana nodded as she slowly turns to the Thunderdrum. "Ooohhh…" She whispers before slightly turning back with a sheepish look. "Who's Thor?" She asked almost embarrassingly.
"Oh, right. Well, we have gods and deities in our region. The Norse Region has its own gods. And Thor is the God of Thunder." Malie explains.
"Like Haikili?" Moana asked her.
"Kind of, Thor has this hammer called Mjolnir and-Woah!" Malie was cut off when the Thunderdrum younglings started playing around Moana and Malie happily, thinking that they were new friends. The adult Thunderdrum smiles in amusement, watching the two girls laughing in delight when the young Thunderdrums were playing around.
"They seem excited." Moana said between laughs as she was being licked by a blue Thunderdrum.
"Well, young Thunderdrums are always the curious ones-OH!" Malie giggles as a teal green Thunderdrum nuzzles her.
The purple Thunderdrum was sitting on Aliikai's back, hugging her happily. Aliikai croons at the hatchling gently while Moana looks at the adult Thunderdrum. "What's your name?" She asked the Thunderdrum.
The Thunderdrum roars gently to them. Malie listens, even though the young Thunderdrums were playing around, but was able to hear what he is saying. "His name is Thornado and the three younglings are Bing, Bam, and Boom."
Thornado looks at her in surprise, wondering how she can understand him. Cayden growls at him gently, saying that Malie was actually a mermaid. He also explains to him about why they are here and their mission. Thornado listens to Cayden as he knew the story about the dragons' ancestral home and how it was almost destroyed by the darkness. He heard this story form his father that was pass down to generation. Thornado heard that it was a haven. The humans there do not hunt dragons like the Vikings did. They would welcome them into their villages as friends. Though, the Vikings of Berk did made peace with the dragons, thanks to Hiccup and Toothless. He used to have a rider, Chief Stoick the Vast, but he is no longer his dragon after Stoick let him go, so Thornado could take care of Bing, Bam, and Boom.
Thornado wanted the young Thunderdrums to live in a safe place, where they can grow up with no danger. He wonders if it was a good idea to leave the Norse Region and love in their region instead. However, he will miss his friends at Berk, but he and the other Tidal Class dragons have to find a new home to live in peace. Thornado looks at them and nodded, wanting to go to their safe region. Malie translated to Moana, who smiles happily.
"That's great! We could use your help to talk with the other aquatic dragons. That way, they can understand." Moana said.
Thornado understood her well and agreed, some of the Tidal Class dragons can be stubborn. Then they heard a Tide Glider roar from the sky. Looking up, Moana and the others saw Makaio coming to land with Keoni, Heihei, and Pōkole on his back while Maui, who was in hawk form, follows him from behind. The land next to their friends as Maui turns back to his human form. Thornado was surprise to see Maui's shapeshifting power. They looked at Thornado in surprise before looking at their friends. Maui points at the Thunderdrum family in unsureness.
"Uhhh…"
"We'll fill you in later. But will make this short, this Thornado and his hatchlings Bing, Bam, and Boom, and Thornado agrees to help us convince the other aquatic dragons to come with us to our region." Moana explains.
"Oh…guess we have to sing and dance again." Maui said.
"…I can't believe I'm saying this, but the Demigod has a point." Keoni agrees with Maui.
Moana smiles and rolled her eyes as she looks at Thornado. "Can you take us to the others, please?" She asked kindly.
Thornado nodded as he gestured them to follow along with the younglings. Bing, Bam, and Boom follows their guardian back to the lagoon with their new friends in tow. The humans and mermaid got on their dragons while Maui turns into a giant hawk as they followed Thornado to the sky with Bing, Bam, and Boom and made their way to the lagoon. Upon their arrival, they landed on the platform and stayed on their dragons while Maui turns into his human form. They saw may tidal class dragons swimming around or just relaxing. Makaio awed at the sight of the tidal class dragons before noticing a pod of Tide Gliders. He instantly recognized them.
It was his pod!
Roaring in delight, Makaio was about to go over to them, but stops when he looks at Keoni. The Keahi warrior looks at Makaio and then the pod of Tide Glider, he knew that his dragon wanted to go back to his pod. So, smiling, Keoni gets off Makaio and pats his neck gently as they looked at each other.
"Go on, Makaio. Be with your pod." Keoni encourages his dragon.
Happy, Makaio jumps in the water and swims over to his pod, calling out to them happily. The Tide Glider pod turns to Makaio and instantly recognizes him. Two adult Tide Gliders jumped in the water, both male and female, and went over to Makaio. As it turns out, they are Makaio's parents. They got separated when a storm came. Makaio got lost and didn't know where he was or how he got to Moana and his friends' region, but now he's back with his pod, happy that they are reunited. Soon, other Tide Gliders came to reunite with Makaio, happy that he's back. Makaio roars in delight before turning to his friends, calling out to them to join.
However, they weren't sure if they should go in since it is filled with aquatic dragons of different kinds. And because the aquatic dragons were giving them dangerously looks. But they stopped when Cayden gave all the tidal class dragons a serious look and short growl. Instantly, all the Tidal Class dragons knew that these humans are associated with the Vahlok. And if a Vahlok was here, meaning Draco is watching. So, they allowed them to go in. The group hesitated but they came in the water slowly. Malie turns into her mermaid form, surprising every aquatic dragon, as she and her friends made their way to Makaio and his pod. Makaio's parents looked at them suspiciously, except Malie, the mermaid is okay to be with. Though, they aren't sure with the two humans and Maui. That's when Makaio explains to his parents and his pod the reason why he is with them. They along with the other Tidal Class dragons listened to his tale.
They remember hearing this tale before. It was pass down to generation to generation. They heard that their old home was filled with safety, no Vikings or Hunters. Only humans that are kind and peaceful. They wanted to live in peace and for their hatchlings to have a safe home. But they weren't sure if they should trust them. Moana and her friends were sitting on some rocks while Cayden was close by on a platform. They could see that they don't seem to trust them. Moana was worried that the Tidal class dragons won't cooperate until she got an idea. Gasping a smile, Moana whispers something on Malie's ear. Malie listens as Moana gave out her plan to her. Malie looks at Moana and smiled at her plan. Malie closes her eyes as she began to sing, catching the dragons' attention.
What makes someone special?
I suppose it all depends
It's what's unique in each of us
That we all share as friends
All the aquatic dragons looked at Malie in surprise and happiness, hearing a mermaid's song can bring good luck and happiness. Aliikai smiles at her, knowing that her singing can help the tidal class dragons to trust them more. Soon, Moana joins in the singing.
The difference is our differences
Maybe smaller great
Variety add spice to life
So we should celebrate!
Malie and Moana performed a duet, causing all the dragons to enjoy the song.
In harmony
Harmony
You're you, I'm me
Together we
Can live in harmony
Then Malie dives in the water. Bing, Bam, and Boom dives in the water as well along with some other Tidal Class Dragons. She continuous singing underwater and can be heard from above. They started playing around as Malie resurfaces and gestured everyone.
If there was only one note
How boring life would be
I'm glad there are so many notes
In many different keys
Moana gets on Aliikai, as her dragon sister took off to the sky, followed by some Thunderdrums and some flying tidal class dragons. They all started dancing in the air to the beat of the song.
I hear each voice singing
With a special quality
And when we sing together we
Bring music to the sea
Soon, Moana and Malie sing in a duet again and the tidal class dragons started singing in a whale like tune. Makaio brought Keoni's on his back before they took with the other Tide Gliders while Cayden sits and watches them while making sure that Heihei doesn't go in the water. Maui turns into his hawk form and joins in the fun. Pōkole, Mistral, and Pua were dnaicng together, enjoying the song. Soon, everyone started dancing and singing, except for Cayden, for he is a serious dragon.
In harmony
Harmony
You're you, I'm me
Together we
Can live in harmony
Aliikai and Makaio spins around together, dancing as their riders laugh with pure joy. Malie was dancing with Bing, Bam, and Boom. They were all having dancing and singing, and they even did conga line. Cayden shook his head but slowly smiles, finding it amusing to see the dragons feeling happy. Soon, Aliikai and Makaio landed back on he rocks with Malie jumps in and sits besides them as they finish the song.
In harmony
Harmony
You're you, I'm me
Together we
Can live in harmony!
Once they finished, they all cheered and roared happily. They enjoyed and singing with them. And if the humans in their region are like them, the Tidal Class Dragons will come with them to their region, and their old home.
