The Thunder and Lightning Riders

Chapter 6: Who Are You?

Hiccups POV(the same as ???'s POV. If you didn't already_get that.).

We waited. And waited. It took around 5 hours for them to actually wake up. Stoick woke up first. Thor was he loud. Louder than I remember. His screaming woke up everyone else and we had to make sure we were all wearing our masks to stop them from finding out who we were. We ended up tying Stoick to his chair for a little until everyone else woke up. Me and Astrid were sitting in 2 chairs waiting for them to shut up. We were in our armor. Okay, technically, I was in my armor and Astrid was wearing her dragon scale cloak.
(Same ones as HTTYD 2. Astrid has a dragon scale cloak that hides her face. Also, they're 20 in this chapter.)

When Fishlegs woke up, he looked terrified. Gobber was still half asleep when he woke up, the twins thought it was cool that 2 masked strangers were sitting in the same room as then and watching them, Snotlout woke up with a girly scream.

After all of them had calmed down Stoick asked, "Who are ye?"

I chuckled and answered, "Someone who saved you." They all stared at me with their mouths open or with scrunched up eyebrows, so I continued. "Me and my team saved you from the shipwreck you were in. We've been waiting for you to wake up so we can help you." More or less.

"You still haven't answered the question."
Stoick grumbled. Still as stubborn as always.

This time Astrid answered. "My names Thunder. This here—" she said gesturing towards me and saying, "is Lightning. Like he said, we saved you. And you Berkians have a real funny way of showing your appreciation."

Fishlegs gasped and said, "THUNDER AND LIGHTNING!" I was confused now.

"Like, the LEGENDARY Thunder and Lightning Riders? As in the Keepers of death? The Lords of Dragons? The Trainers???" He asked.

"Legendary huh?" I smirked. I knew that people told story's about us, but I didn't know people called us 'The Keepers of Death'. I wondered how far our stories traveled that they had gotten past Berk.

"Yea." Snotlout said. "We've heard about you. How you save Vikings. And dragons." He said the last sentence with so much disgust you would think that he just drank a full jug of Astrid's Yaknog.

"Yes we do save dragons. We believe that dragons are just as good, if not better, than people." I educated him. He reaches for his sword then realized it wasn't there.

I laugh slightly at their predictability, and their faces once they realize their swords and whatnot had disappeared. "We removed your weapons and put them somewhere where you can't hurt us or anyone else on the Island." Snotlout charged at me and I waited till the right moment then I tripped him and stepped out of the way as he fell face first on the floor. Then I put my foot on his back taking out inferno and placing it a few inches above his neck. "And this is why we strip Vikings of their weapons." I said exasperated and disappointed.

"So you can defeat them in battle?" The twins asked grinning.

I hear a few 'oh thor's so I say, "yes." Letting my sarcasm out with an eye roll.

"Why did ya bring us to your island?" Gobber asks scratching under his helmet with his hook.

"You shipwrecked on our island. It was our hospitality that brought you here to help you. We know you guys are from Berk. It's a long trip that we're not willing to make for two reasons. The first one is, we have other things to do. The island doesn't run itself." I say as I get my foot off Snotlout. I reach my hand for him to give him a hand to get up, but he swats it away and gets up on his own (with some difficulty), walking back to his seat.

"The second reason is that we don't want to help you people." Astrid says from her spot. She's speaks viscously at them and I can practically see her anger seeping through.
