How To Train Your Dragon: Broken

Getting Colder

PLEASE READ THIS!!!!

Okay I just the best idea for a story. It will be the sequel to Broken. I will do the same thing as before; post the first chapter of the next story on the same day I post the final chapter of this story.

Here it is; How to Train Your Dragon: Mistake. Summary; "Hiccup is doing well on bettering his condition. But one day, while fighting off a group of Dragon Hunters, he snaps and makes a fatal mistake. Will Hiccup be able to cope with this mistake or will Berk be doomed forever?"

 Bard's men dragged Astrid and Ailsa to the far side of the Slave Area. The Flight of the Sleep Darts swung from side to side as they pumped the last of the sleep inducing drug into their veins. Once the drug had been fully pumped into them the darts slipped out and landed in the mud. Once they reached the other side one of the men dropped Ailsa and fiddled with the keys. He smiled as the right one showed itself and he unlocked the cages. The cages were old, rusty, and almost to small for humans to fit inside. They weer purposefully kept outside in the cold and rain. That's why they were the "punishment cages". The men shoved the sleeping girls inside then another one shackled both their legs and arms. The cages were shut and the men walked away.  

Nearly a day had passed before the effect of the sleep drugs finally wore off. Astrid groaned back into conscience as she blinked her eyes open. "Ugh...w-what-where..." Astrid shifted to sit up but banged her head on the top of the cage. "Eww...," she gagged as what was probably dirty mud slipped off the metal bars of the cage and land directly on her. Astrid struggled against the shackles; hoping to break them by strength. "Come on.." she mumbled, "Ugh, no use." Astrid looked up; it was almost nighttime.

"Ugh...what a drug..."

Astrid turned and saw Ailsa as she woke up.

"Ailsa, are you okay?"

"Astrid?" Ailsa pushed herself up but too banged her head on the top of the cage. "Ow," she turned towards Astrid, "I'm fine. Wait...where is Eydis?"

Astrid scanned the area around them, "I don't see her! I hope she's alright."

'I think she was the one on that Silver Phantom,' a trapped dragon chimed in from a few feet away, 'Last night I saw that dragon fly out of here while carrying a small human child.'

"Oh thank Gods," Astrid smiled, "At least she escaped."

"Yea...but what about us?" Ailsa hugged her knees.

"W-Will get out," Astrid said that more to convince herself, "We have to!"

"Quiet you two!" a guard yelled from across the field.

"This isn't what my people were meant to endure," Ailsa sighed.

"Huh?"

"My people, long long ago, came from a land called Scotland," Ailsa began to explain, "Long ago a boat left Scotland and traversed the seas until finally settling on a beautiful island. An-Uh...Sorry. I'm not really sure on why I'm telling you this."

"No, it's okay," Astrid smiled, "If it makes you feel better then tell me anything about your people."

Ailsa smiled back, "Well...my people have always had a heart for adventure. Men would come back and tell amazing stories about giants and dragons. I'm actually the first person in my village to ever train a dragon. Though, I guess nobody is going to know that."

"They will," Astrid promised, "You'll be the talk of the village"

"Yea...," Ailsa glanced around, "Maybe-uh, what's up with the dragons?"

Astrid shifted a turned to see the dragons. They were fidgety and uneasy.

'I sense him!' one exclaimed while flapping her wings.

'He is coming to save us! Alpha!

'The air is getting colder!'

"What in the world are they talking about?" Ailsa asked.

"I...I have no idea," Astrid turned back to Ailsa, "I've never seen dragons act like this before."

Suddenly a Deadly Nadder roared out from her cage and started to kick her feet and flap her wings. Other dragons began to follow suit. The commotion drew the attention of the guards.

"Hey! Quiet down!" one of them yelled, "What did you two do?"

"What?" Astrid exclaimed, "We didn't do anything!"

The dragons grew more and more restless. They started to bang their heads against the cages. Astrid huddled up against a corner of the cage; the air suddenly took a dive. Her breath was now visible. Astrid's experience as a Dragon Rider told her that something big was about to happen.
