Elsa's POV

Hiccup set. I took a deep breath.
"He kidnapped my sister." I said.
"Great." muttered the young viking. "You said he pretend to be me? What does that mean? Like, did he looked like me?"
I shook my head. "He just said he was Hiccup Haddock. I believed him. He knew enough about you to impose to you. Knew your name, the name of your clan, even Astrid's name. I didn't thought he lied."
"And because of you my brother is gone!" screamed princess Merida. I didn't met her eyes.
Hiccup looked thoughtful. "how did he look?"
"Well..." I tried to think how to describe him. "He was weird. He was very large man with-"
I was interrupted by a huge black - thing - that leaped into the room, knocked Rapunzel from her feet and jumped on Hiccup.
I instantly draw my hands in defense, forming an icicle with my magic, when I realized the viking was laughing.
"Hey, bud, it's okay, I'm okay, you can get off from me now..." he chuckled.
I lowered my hands. "Er..."
"My queen!" a young soldier stood by the door, looking terrified. "it just jumped- out of nowhere - I couldn't stop it-"
"It's okay." said Astrid, looking quite amused. "He's well behaved, mostly."
Merida lowered her bow. "Do you know that- beastie?"
"Toothless is not a beast." said Hiccup, standing up. "He's a dragon."
"That thing is not toothless." said Merida coldly.
"No, but he can be."
"Whatever." she put her bow down, and I got the feeling she didn't trust the dragon anymore then she trusted me.
"Okay." I said, trying to calm myself down as the black creature keeped his gaze on me. "So... Where was I?"
"You were describing the impostor." reminded Astrid, who looked completely calm despite the huge black dragon sitting two inches from her husband.
"Right." I said. "So, he was pretty large, with big messy black beard and dark eyes. He was tuned- and his face were deformed-"
Hiccup turned pale. "No. Not him."
"What?" I looked at him.
"This man." asked Astrid, looking as uncomfortable as her husband. "He had two hands, right? His left hand wasn't cut, was it?"
I tried to remember. "I think it was."
The vikings exchanged painful looks.
"You know who he is, don't you?" asked Merida in a dangerous tone.
"No. That can't be him. He died. I'm sure." said Hiccup.
"Well, I don't know about that, but he was here! So tell us who he is, because my brother may be in danger!"
Astrid took a deep breath. "His name is Drago Bludvist. And yes, Merida. Your brother is definitely in danger."

Jack's POV

The room fell silent. No one moved. Everyone seemed to hold their breath, once they knew who we were facing.
"Okay. I'll ask." I said finely. "Who is this Drago Bludvist?"
"Oh, no one." said Hiccup. "Just the craziest, most dangerous person I know. He killed my father and tried to kill me. Had an army of dragons. Nothing to be afraid of."
"You said he was dead?" asked the annoying redhead princess.
"We thought so. He was buried under layers of water and ice, along with his bewilderbeast."
That didn't really comforted me, since I died too. Many should look more closely at the people he picks.
"So we fight a crazy man who killed once and will be ready to kill again. Anything more?" asked Elsa.
Princess Reddy put something on the table. "I found that after you were gone to bring our viking friends here."
I looked at the item. It was a long and sharp dagger, amade from silver.
"Hey, that looks familiar..." said Punzie's boyfriend, Eugene.
"Sure it does." said Punzie, turning white. "it's hers, Eugene. She killed you with it."
"Excuse me?" asked Reddy. "You said someone killed him wuth that dagger? How may dead people are in this story?!"
"If you count the owner of this dagger as one of them," said Elsa, "I think we reached four. Five, if you count Anna's time as a frozen statue as death."
"That Drago Bludvist, whoever her stands for, your boyfriend -"
"Husband." fixed Punzie. Oh.
"-Whatever. Who else?"
I put my hand in front of her face. "Hi. I'm exist."
"Actually, you're not quite do." said Hiccup.
"Who are you talking about?" frowned the redhead. I really started to hate her.
"Er..." Elsa looks at me. "Merida, have you ever heard of Jack Frost?"
"Of course I have. Let me guess - he exists."
Elsa blinked. "You believe me?"
"I've seen so many weird legends become true in my life, it's not that hard to believe another one. If you all say so, I guess I believe you."
Okay, that girl is crazy.
"And you... See him?"
"Weird white hair. Ridiculous stick. Holding your hand. Yep, I see him."
Holding her hand?
I looked down, and realized that indeed, I haven't left the queen's hand since we got the news about her sister. She must have reached the same thought, because she blushed and left my hand. It hadn't bothered me- of course it didn't. The only reason I hold her from the first place was that I didn't want to leave her alone after she got the news. Only that. Nothing more.
"Er, okay." Hiccup gave a little cough, looking awkward. "So, what else have you found?"
"A pendant. And that." she put a little sack on the table.
"What's it there?" asked Hiccup, and started opening it.
"Don't touch it!" I screamed, and glared at the redhead. "You brought it in?! Elsa told you not to touch it!"
"It's only sand." she rolled her eyes. "It's not like it's going to explode."
"It's not just any sand! It's nightmare sand, and it dangerous!"
"It's a clue to where my brother is, and I'm not going to ignore it because of a cowered winter spirit!"
"I am no cowered!"
We glared at each other from the two ends of the table. Her hands shook with anger. I needed all my power to stop myself from freezing her solid.
"Jack..." said Rapunzel, clearly afraid to get in the middle of this fight. "It sounds like you know about this sand. Could you explain it? What does it mean, 'nightmare sand'?"
I breathed deeply, trying to control my temper. "It's exactly what it sounds like. Nightmare sand. It causes nightmares and fear."
Merida frowned. "How can sand cause nightmares?" she asked, still glaring at me.
"Don't ask me, I never understood the whole thing about the dream sand and it's qualities."
"Let me guess-" asked Merida, "because you were too dumb to understand it?"
"No, because Sandy never explained it to me! Anyway, it's dangerous. When used in the right way, it can change any dream into a nightmare."
"And it's dangerous?" asked Hiccup.
I nodded. "Very."
He nodded. "What do we learn from it being used here?"
I took a deep breath. It can't be, can it? "It... It may mean we're fighting against Pitch Black."
"And who is he?" asked Merida, it an annoyed tone.
"The boogeyman."
She looked taken a back. "W-what?!"
I almost laughed from the llok of terror on her face. Instead, I kept my face calm.
"We should go and save them." said Elsa. "They may be in a great danger."
"Sending an army won't work." warned Astrid. "They're probably expecting that. We should send a small group of people, a small quest."
"I'm in it." said Merida and me in the same time. I glared at her. "My brother is there, Frosty-pants." she said. "I'm not going to wait around until you guys will find him."
"I want to do this too." said Hiccup. "You'll need someone who knows Drago Bludvist and how he works."
"That means I'm in it too." said Astrid.
"What? No!" Hiccup looked worried. "I need you to go back to Berk and make sure-"
"Hiccup, I'm not sitting around and waiting for you while you fight this monster again. We'll send a message to your mom with Stormfly, and tell her what's going on. She can handle Berk."
"Someone else?" I asked.
"Me." said Rapunzel. We all stared at her. "What?" she asked. "My mother is in this thing. I want to know why, and how she isn't dead."
"If You're going, I'm going too-" started Eugene, but she cut him. "No, Eugene. She already killed you once. I can't let her do it again."
"But-"
"No. Please. Cass, you too. I'm not gonna let her hurt another person I care about."
Her best friend/ body guard closed her mouth, taken aback.
"So it leaves the five of us?" I counted quickly.
"Six." said Elsa.
"What?" I looked around, trying to figure out whom I missed.
"I'm coming too." she said, and stood up.
"Are you sure-" I started, but the look she gave me shut me up. "Yes, I am." she said. "No one will hurt my sister."
I looked at her, stunned. She looked so furious.
"So that's it?" asked Hiccup.
"It seems so." said princess Flamehead.
"So let's get ready." he said with a gravel tone, and I had a feeling this was going be on a very long quest.
