How To Train Your Dragon: Broken

On the Trail

"Kidnapped!?"

"Who would dare so such a thing!?"

Angry and confused voice shouted all throughout the Great Hall. Who would kidnap Hiccup and Astrid?

"Everybody calm down!" Stoicks voice commanded above the noise; although he himself was raging inside, "We may not know who has taken them but we do know that they were. I've already got some of our young Dragon Riders out on the hunt for them. They've got the best Tracker Class dragons on the island."

O

"Smell anything Stormtwister?" Andres watched as his Deadly Nadder sniff the disturbed earth.

'I smell Toothless...' Stormtwister sniffed the ground again and growled, 'I smell unfamiliar humans too...and they have the scent of dry dragon blood.'

"Dragon blood!?" Fishlegs nearly shrieked, "W-why would they have dragon blood on them?"

"They must be Dragon Hunters," Kari suggested, "Like the ones that kidnapped Astrid three years ago."

"They wouldn't be stupid and mess with us again, would they?" Snotlout wondered.

"Maybe they're different people," Andres suggested.

"Well whoever they are they're not getting away," Kari climbed on top of her Skrill, Striker, "You got their scent?"

'Unfortunately,' Stormtwister cringed at the smell. Twisted in with the blood was the scent of humans who either didn't know how to or flat out refused to bath, 'Still strong.'

"Then let's follow!" Andres jumped onto Stormtwisters back and shot up into the air. They others followed closely behind. For the longest time the flew in silence, letting Stormtwister do his thing and track the scent. Though, his sense of smell wasn't as good a Rumblehorns but nobody on Berk has one. According to Hiccup and the dragons, Rumblehorns tend to be a little shy.

two hours later...

"Ugh!" Tuffnut groaned out for longer than he should have, "We've been for FOREVER!"

"It's only been two hours Tuff," Kari looked back at her friend and saw the soreness, "Just try to hang in there."

'He's not the only one who is tired and sore,' Belch wined.

'Such it up Spark head,' Striker straight up commanded, 'I can't believe that your tired already.'

'Says you!' Barf growled, 'We're not a Strike Class dragon!'

"Focus you two-uh three," Andres yelled back at the dragons, "Remember who we're trying to find!"

As they continued to fly on the clouds around them rolled passed as if they had no care in the world. But one clouds was masking something. Once it rolled on by a very large ship came into view. It looked nothing like a viking ship that the riders ever knew or seen.

'It's not them,' Stormtwister held back a growl, But their scent is somewhat similar to the one I've got now.'

"They might know where Hiccupand Astrid are!" Fishlegs cheered.

"Yea but they may be Dragon Hunters,"Kari pointed out, "I don't think they'll be happy with us just flying in. We'll follow them-at a safe distance. Once they land then will "ask" them about Hiccup and Astrid."
