New Family (a Httyd/Rtte Fanfic)

Son

Stoick and Skullcrusher raced above the clouds at breakneck speed.

How could that girl even think that he was dumb enough to let her go. And to believe that lie. He scoffed at just the thought. Still, it wouldn't hurt to check.

"It's okay Skullcrusher. I'm fine." he said to his dragon, who growled questioningly.

The Rumblehorn snorted.

The chief dipped below the sky and there was Berk. He wondered how they had reached it so quickly coming to the conclusion that searching every nick and nook would probably eat up time.

His dragon snorted again, this time in anger.

Then he saw it.

An armada of ships bearing the dragon hunter crest where steering in on Berk.

"Guess she really did tell the truth." he spoke to himself disbelievingly.

They descended with a battle cry, charging in on an attack. Arrows and nets were fired in their direction as the duo rammed into a boat, which sank almost immediately afterwards. They had almost made it out of range when a shout alerted Stoick. Glancing back he saw his son tied to the mast of the lead ship. The chief was about to turn around, when Skullcrusher jolted underneath him. They spun out of control towards the sea.

"Agggg!" Stoick let out a grunt and uprighted his falling mount.

"Look out below!" he bellowed as they came in for a crash landing on his island. Gobber rushed to his aid. The angry chief glared out at the approaching armada. The villagers were all armed and loaded.

But it was no use.

The hunters had the upper hand. Stoick new that if they fought back viggo would kill his son.

"You doing okay Arctic?"

Hina and the dragon riders were on their way to Berk and Arctic was riding their newly trained nadder.

He had named him Thistle.

"Ya I think so!" came the blonde's reply. The green nadder had taken a quick liking to Arctic and the two had bonded rather nicely under a short amount of time.

Not wanting to disrupt Arctic's and Thistle's first flight together, Hina decided to ride with Astrid. The blonde warrior was a bit on edge but she still was her best shot from the bunch. Hina shuffled the weight of her bow, which she had slung over her shoulder. True, this weapon was not good in close range fighting, but if it ever came to that, Hina planned on using her fists as well as the sword on her hip.

She let out a nervous sigh.

"Relax," came Astrid's voice. "We will get Hiccup back. But if this is a trick, you know what's coming."

She rolled her eyes.

"Yes, that made me feel so much better."

The blondy laughed and Hina joined her. This was nice. Having another girl to talk to. There weren't many girls on Estwin, and the few were older than her. Plus, they always looked at her with scorn. Hina knew she wasn't the prettiest girl in the archipelago, but the others liked to remind her.

"So while you girls are having the time of your lives, the twins, axey here, and I are just going to save all of Berk from that hunter armada."

The two friends glowered at Snotlout, who had conveniently decided to fly in the back. Hina glanced down and gasped. Ships surrounded Berks ports and she could see families huddled in the streets or being escorted by hunters. Anger gripped her and keeping her head clear was becoming harder.

"Okay, we apparently still have the element of surprise. Ruff, Tuff, take out the bordering ships, Snotlout, you and Arctic eliminate the center. Astrid and I will go find Hiccup."

"I like your fight style" Astrid complimented and the riders attacked.
