The Dragon Master Part III: End of an era (A Httyd Fanfiction)

Chapter 5: Set free

(Normal pov)

"Get back you filthy dogs!"

Outcast guards roared out to their prisoners of war by hitting their prisoners hands with their weapons if the prisoners grasped the bars. The majority of the prisoners were soldiers and Flyers from Drago's army, among these prisoners was Krogan and Enyo— two of Drago's most loyal soldiers and leaders of the Dragon Flyers.

Krogan's leg was crushed when his Singetail fell on him years prior, but since then, Enyo made a makeshift split for his leg and helped her ally regain strength in his leg, and his leg has recovered, though he does limp every now and then. Suddenly, one of the Outcast guards banged his sword against the stone while pointing towards the jails exit.

"Dinner time you foreign shits!! Savor it."

An Outcast jail warden entered and then nodded to his guards, the Vikings had bags full of bread loaves in them and passed one loaf of bread to each cell. The two Flyers caught a loaf of bread and split it together, since their defeat, all they could think of was escaping this vile heap of rock and kill every Viking on Outcast Island.

Even though the prisoners couldn't leave their cells, they still kept in fighting shape by working out, sparing with each other, and plotting.

"Have any of the prisoners attempted to revolt against you lot?" The Outcast warden demanded one of the jails guards, the guard in question shook his head and answered. "None sir, though they do give you a murderous glare, we keep these foreigners in line." The warden nodded and looked toward the foreign prisoners. "Keep your eyes sharp, Alvin wants lights out and the prisoners secure." The warden ordered, the guard bowed his head and returned to his comrades and soon the guards started extinguishing the torches lined up along the walls.

 Krogan and Enyo watched as the last of the torches were extinguished and two Outcasts were guarding the entrance of the prison door. The light skinned man then approached his cot and laid down, sighing heavily, Enyo continued to watch as two Outcasts passed by their cell and snickered at their misfortune. Enyo sighed heavily as she approached her cot and sat down while mumbling out. "Do you believe the army will return to these wretched lands? Or is our fate to rot in these cells until they decide to kill us?" She then turned to Krogan and awaited his answer, the man licked his lips and then replied back. "I know not. We've been locked up for four years. Without Drago's leadership, surely the army has shattered and gone their separate ways."

Enyo then approached the cell window which was barred up, the woman looked out toward the horizon to see jagged rocks sticking out everywhere, how could these people live on such a wretched place? Before Enyo returned to her cot, she saw movement on the water, she squinted her eyes until she noticed lanterns and torches being lit. There were tens of thousands of them being lit. The sounds of battle grunts echoed out in the distance, causing Krogan to get up and join Enyo at the window to see the thousands of lit torches and lanterns, the other prisoners too looked outside to see the same thing and could hear the ferocious battle grunts.

Suddenly, flaming catapults, flaming arrows and cannons were fired from the thousands of ships and the prisoners could hear the sounds of war horns being blown and Outcasts roaring out to each other in alarm. Could this be their great army coming back for revenge?

Possibly.

Before the Outcast guards with the jail could even react in time, the door blew open and the force of the explosion sent them flying back and scraping against the stone grounds. The guards groaned in agony, but before they could get up, both Outcast guards heads were bashed in with war maces. Kjell and Chimola, both draped in their Night Fury cloaks and their war maces in hand turned to the soldiers that accompanied them, Chimola then approached the deceased Outcasts bodies and grabbed their keys and tossed them to one of the soldiers who accompanied them.
