Chapter 4: secret weapon

Chapter 4: secret weapon?

On Dragons edge

"Their real leader is someone named Viggo Grimborn." Astrid explained.

"Awesome name. Scary, but awesome." Ruffnut says.

"I don't know." Tuffnut rebukes. "Viggo Grimdeath would be cooler. Or how about Gore Grimskull." Tuffnut suggests.

"Grimskull!" Tuffnut says dramatically with his fists clenched upwards in a motion.

"He lives in the shadows, everyone is afraid of him even Riker." Astrid says. She looks down as she pauses before begining to speak again.

"Heather has heard rumours of a secret weapon." Astrid begins.

"A secret weapon, what!" Exclaims Hiccup in worry.

"Heather heard from the hunters of a man with demon horns, a dragon hunter symbol burned into his chest and a collar around his neck doing Viggo's bidding. But for some reason all the dragons seems to calm down when he gets near them. Heather heard that Viggo was using him to capture more dragons, and was somehow controlling him."

"A man with horns?" Questioned Fishlegs.

"Horns or no horns we can totally kick his ass." Snotlout said from the corner of the room.

"Something is off." Hiccup began.

"He has a collar on, there is a literal burn of the dragon hunters burned to his chest. Dragons are strangely calm near him. I have a feeling he was captured and is currently being used by the dragon hunters. Never mind the horns, if what Heather says is true. Then Viggo is a very dangerous man. And if that man with supposed horns is being held against his will, it's a priority to get him out of there. As if heather's sources are right, he is not being treated kindly." Hiccup says.

A silence passes over them before Tuffnut speaks up.

"Are we all just going to ignore the fact that the supposed man has horns! Like when did that happen! And can u have horns too." Tuffnut asks excitedly.

Hiccup sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

Back at hunter base
( a day after arriving back on base )
"So... what is my rank exactly." Asked August in curiosity.

Viggo pondered for a moment, before answering. "You are third in command of the whole base and are in charge of fighting, directing, training the hunters and morale. Since the ranking system was your idea, create your own rank."

August's eyes sparkled in joy.
"How about Major General." Says August.

Viggo nodded his head in approval, before going back to looking at maps and drawing up plans. August barged in to hang out with Viggo as he wanted to confirm with him a few things and try to get a feel of Viggo ad Viggo was a tough guy to figure out.

As for Ryker, from what he had heard Ryker went out to hunt some dragons and was going to meet David and Heather to form an alliance.

So the timeline was around Night of the hunters. Ryker went out to Dagur and Heather using the original format of the army as the hunters were still getting sorted. There was a lot of work to do, which August probably should get to doing.

"Uhhhh." August groaned.

"I'm gonna go do my job. Enjoy plotting to take over the world or whatever you doing." August says as he stood up from the armchair and stretches, walking out of the tent.

He sounded the horn to round up all the dragon hunters, and everyone gathered at the square, some saluting at him as they passed by while some gave him weary looks.
