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

Chapter 7: Uniting forces

A/N: So, basically Grimmel forms a Cabal with Drago's army, the Romans and the Grimborn Hunters under Johann's and Nikora's control. Grimmel is going to consistently throw each faction at Berk at its allies, meaning they exhaust their strength, resources and dragons. That way, when Grimmel himself is going to take Berk in the future? Berks defenders will have exhausted their strength and will be defeated. But in the mean time? Enjoy the chapter and insert Grimmel's introduction from the Httyd 3 soundtrack.

The following morning, Grimmel was on board his airship as his Deathgrippers escorted him to Rock Island. There, the trophy hunter laid eyes on the Bludvist dreadnaught, warships belonging to the warlords and chieftains of Drago's army, a Roman flagship and a ship bearing the Grimborn tribal crest on the sail. Upon landing on the island, Grimmel exited his airship with two Deathgrippers following their master, straight ahead, the trophy hunter entered a chamber where there was a massive stone table and chairs all around for the leaders of the army and seeing the Roman Emperor Augustus accompanied by Cato and six Praetorian guards, Nikora Stormheart and Johann were accompanied by six of their own men as well. Once sitting in his seat, all eyes turned to the trophy hunter, Grimmel himself nodded in greetings to those gathered before speaking.

"Welcome. We are all here for one reason. To take the Vikings dragons and lay waste to the Dragon Master." Grimmel said as he pursed his lips before gesturing to the warlords of the army. "These warlords and chieftains have hired me to lead this army because the Dragon Master has Night Furies. And for those of you who are unfamiliar with my infamy, then I am the Night Fury killer. I've hunted and killed everyone of those beasts down. And yet, somehow, many of them slipped through my fingers and have had sanctuary in Norway. But before we discuss a plan of attack, we must be honest with each other..."

Grimmel turned to Emperor Augustus before asking him. "Emperor Augustus. Welcome, with respect, what are your reasons for joining us?" All eyes turned to the emperor of Rome, Augustus answered Grimmel's question. "Rome is more vulnerable than ever before. We barely survived destruction from our enemies. I am here to take a pack of Night Furies to add into my arsenal to annihilate the enemies of Rome, once and for all."

The trophy hunter nodded in understanding before turning to Johann and Nikora and asked them their reasons for joining them. "And you two? I'm unfamiliar with you both, but clearly there's more to you then meets the eye. What do you hope to achieve by joining us?" Johann interlaced his fingers together and gave the trophy hunter a sinister grin. "My partner and I are here to steal a Bewilderbeast egg from that scrawny boy Hiccup Haddock. With a Bewilderbeast under my command? I can build my own reputation and become the richest man in the world."

Drago stood up and turned to Grimmel. "I too will need a future King of Dragons if I am to continue my conquests. The Hybrid my sons posses has been a replacement alpha for four years, but it hasn't... adapted well to our methods of 'training' our dragons into submission." Drago then turned to three warlords he knew very well— Griselda the Grievous, Chagatai Khan who was the second born son of the legendary Genghis Khan and Rong the Rock. "These three warlords have been at my side for years and they want the same thing I do. Staining the Dragon Masters reputation and conquer the Viking world."

Grimmel nodded before grabbing a jug of wine and pouring himself a cup, when he took a drink he sighed contently at the sweet and rich  exotic drink before turning to his allies and speaking. "So, with all our forces combined, we stand as the largest threat to Berk and the Viking world. We are now the Cabal. One faction and one force to see that our dreams and ambitions become a reality." Everyone gathered grunted and hummed in agreement, the trophy hunter then continued speaking. "When Drago was presumed dead, and when the warlords hired me, they informed me of everything that happened after their defeat. The Dragon Master managed to free all of your dragons as well as a Foreverwing."
