Side story 6
It was a stormy night in Berk. Thunder clapped and heavy rain fell as two individuals knocked and rang Hiccup's doorbell.
The lights in the upstairs room went on and there was some movement. The door was opened not long thereafter.
"Good night? Can I help you?" Was asked as Hiccup tried to suppress a yawn. Astrid had also come down and was rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
"Night and sorry to trouble you. I'm Kim Possible and this is my boyfriend Ron Stoppable." She introduced holding the umbrella tightly as the rain pelted down. "Our car broke down a couple of blocks from here. We were wondering if you might be able to help us out?"
"Yeah sure. I'm Hiccup." He introduced. "And this is my fiance Astrid." Both of them had recognized the crime fighting duo.
"Hiccup it's already 1 AM. Maybe they could just spend the night and then you can fix the car tomorrow." Astrid suggested. "That is, if both of you wouldn't mind?"
"No no. Of course not." Kim told them. "We appreciate all the help we can get."
"Alright" Hiccup said. "Why don't we go get your car. I'll just get the keys to the tow truck. Astrid would you mind checking if the guestroom is alright."
"Sure thing babe." Astrid smiled as she got Hiccup's message. As soon as Hiccup was gone Astrid began to quickly hide all supervillain related materials.
Hiccup came back not twenty minutes later, towing a small purple car. "Astrid we're back." Hiccup called as they stepped inside. Astrid came out of a room with a big grin on her face.
"The guest room is ready." She told them.
"Thank you very much." Kim said.
"So what brings you here?" Hiccup asked. "No one really drives through this type of weather here in Berk."
"We were called in to identify the culprit of the recent unicorn disappearances." Kim told them. Astrid blanched a bit.
"Unicorn disappearances?" She asked trying to sound disbelieving.
"Oh yeah. Apparently someone stole all the unicorn plush toys from here 'til the tri-state area." Kim told them.
"Only a madman would do such a thing!" Ron mumbled as he eyed a big bowl of jelly beans on the counter.
"Oh jelly beans." Ron said as he innocently popped one of the beans in his mouth.
"NOOOO" Astrid shouted as soon as he did that and grabbed him by the scruff, quickly dragging him to the balcony. "SPIT IT OUT!" was shouted causing Kim to quirk an eyebrow as Hiccup facepalmed.
Soon a resounding boom could be heard that nearly caused the vase on the end table to topple.
Astrid came back inside dragging a sick looking Ron. "Eh.... they were extra strength...." She mumbled sheepishly.
"Okay...." Kim said as she took Ron's hand as Hiccup showed then the guest room.
"Oh..... eh.... You might want to stay clear of the sweets here." Hiccup warned them. "They tend to pack a punch."
Kim nodded as Hiccup closed the door. It was then that Ron turned to her. "KP are you really going to believe that?!!" Ron asked gesturing wildly with his arms. "I nearly got blown up!!"
"Well you did take a jelly bean without asking." Kim reasoned as her boyfriend gave her a strange look.
"Kim, something is seriously wrong here!! Exploding jelly beans!!!" Ron shouted. "Are you just going to ignore it?! Something weird is going on here!"
"Look Ron, they were nice enough to put us up for the night." Kim told him. Maybe you're reading too much into this?" She said while letting out a yawn.
"Exploding jelly beans KP!" Ron once again said as Rufus popped out of his pocket and nodded. When he saw that Kim was fast asleep on the bed he grumbled. "Looks like it's just you and me buddy."
"Umhu" Rufus nodded.
"Let's go find out what's hinky here." Ron said as he crept out of the room. The kitchen and the living room were dark as Ron crept about.
"I know that there is something wrong here?" He muttered as he tiptoed, unaware of the acid green eyes following him.
Ron was busy sneaking through the living room with only a tiny flashlight and Rufus accompanying him, when a growl emanated from behind him. He quickly turned around and the flashlight illuminated a black reptile who was growling at him with slitted eyes.
"A manly-yet-girlish shriek came from Ron as he woke up the other three occupants of the house and probably the surrounding neighbourhood.
Kim came out of the room battle ready as Hiccup flipped the lightswitch for the living room, revealing Ron holding up a ceramic banana bud vase, using it to defend against Toothless who was growling and baring his teeth.
"Help I'm going to get eaten!!" Ron shouted while Rufus covered his eyes, as Hiccup let out a sigh.
"Down bud." Hiccup told Toothless who immediately stopped growling and hopped over to Hiccup's side while Astrid grumbled that the horrific banana vase hadn't been destroyed. She questioned the minions' sanity when they gave that thing to Hiccup.
Hiccup looked sheepishly at the duo as he rubbed the back of his head. "I'll explain in the morning." He told them and both were in too much shock, so they merely nodded.
Come morning Kim, Ron, Hiccup and Astrid were sitting at the table with copious amounts of coffee between them.
"So let me get this straight." Ron said and then pointed to Hiccup. "Ex-superhero sidekick who hooks up with a mad scientist and you have a dragon living with you."
Hiccup and Astrid nodded and then Ron looked to Kim with an I-told-you-so expression.
"We've seen weirder." Kim smirked and Ron groaned when Rufus agreed with her.
"So why don't we go take a look at that car?" Hiccup asked as Kim and Ron followed him to the garage.
Astrid was busy experimenting with a waffle when her chat beeped. She picked up her phone and opened her Evilbook messenger.
"Hey girl. You doing anything today?" Was asked by Shego on the other end. "I really really need to get out of the lair."
"I'm at Hiccup's experimenting." Astrid wrote.
"So.... you mind if I hang out there for the day?" Shego then asked. "I'm serious when I say I have to get out of the lair. I might kill Dr. D ;) ;) ;)"
"Sure" Astrid said as she knew Hiccup didn't mind the villains popping over. Her head snapped up when she remembered that Shego and Kim had a history and was about to text back only to smell something burning. She turned back around and saw that the waffle and the teflon pan were on fire. "Not again!!" Astrid shouted as she grabbed one of the many fire extinguishers Hiccup now kept in the kitchen.
When Astrid was done she looked sheepishly at the teflon pan which now had a hole through it. Toothless who had peeked his head into the kitchen let out a dragon laugh before heading back to whatever fluffy thing he was laying on.
Astrid rolled her eyes. "Crazy reptile" She muttered before she remembered that she had to text Shego back. But it was too late as she recognized the sound of the hover vehicle landing.
Astrid rushed out and her eyes widened when she saw Kim and Shego stare off.
"Eh.....oeps...." Astrid said as she entered the garage and gave a sheepish look.
"No sweat." Shego mumbled. "Kimmy and I settled our differences a while ago." This caused Astrid to let out a breath of relief.
"So what are you doing here Shego?" Hiccup asked as he checked the motor of the car and frowned. "Definitely hydrolocked" he mumbled to himself.
"I just had to get out of that lair." Shego grumbled as her hand flared green causing Ron to hide behind Kim. "It was either that or murder Dr. D"
"Eh.... Why?" Kim now asked curious. "I thought things were going great between you two."
"They are, but even the henchmen are fleeing." Shego told them. "Their eardrums can't stand it and the echoing in the lair makes it worse."
"Can't stand what?" Astrid now asked. "Come on girl. Don't leave us hanging. Spill."
"Drakken and Doofenshmitrz decided to enter the Annual villain yodel-off" Shego groaned. "He's using the lair to practice. I was even considering moving back in with my brothers." She shuddered.
Kim winced while Astrid looked thoughtful. "I forgot about the annual yodel-off." She said and then turned to Hiccup. "Why don't you enter babe?" She then asked as all eyes turned to him.
"What?!" Hiccup asked perplexed as he nearly hit his head on the hood of the car.
"I know for a fact that you can yodel." Astrid said as the others looked skeptically while Hiccup's cheeks reddened.
"Ehhh...." Hiccup mumbled looking a bit embarrassed. "I don't usually advertise that." He told them.
"So you can really yodel?" Shego asked as even Rufus looked at Hiccup curiously.
"Eh... yeah"
"Well let's hear it then." Shego smirked as she clapped her hands together.
Hiccup sighed. He knew he wasn't getting out of it if the villainess' banded together.
"Fine here goes" Hiccup said as he began. "I went across to Switzerland. Where all the yodellers be. To try to learn to yodel. With my yodel-oh-ee-dee." As soon as Hiccup sang that he saw eyebrows shoot up.
