Chapter 1: Hunters

You slowly turned around, only to see a Nadder, with several spikes like a crown on its head and a bulge in its belly, one of the few 2 legged dragons with deadly spikes all on its tail, teeth sharp enough to crush bones and a fire blast that can blind you as well as scorching you. With a horn on its head that could skewer you to its amazing tracking abilities, this was a formidable beast. This Nadder's skin was a mix of colours, it was also more hostile and had a larger amount of spines on its tail (you knew this because the Nadder had raised the tail above your head with the spines ready to shoot you).

This told you 2 things, firstly was that you were outside the archipelago in which Berk stood and that this Nadder was not a Deadly Nadder but an Edge Nadder. Another thing it told you was that this meant that the outpost of Hiccup and the gang, the 'edge' as they called it was not too far as Edge Nadders never strayed far from home unless migrating.

That still didn't help the fact that this hungry beast was looking for a free meal to devour. That's when you had a stroke of brilliance.

All Nadders had a soft spot near their chin which would make them vulnerable, maybe you could use that to your advantage and temporarily calm the dragon. But 2 things stopped you from doing this. Firstly was that Nadders were intelligent creatures, this one was also no exception as it had placed itself at such a distance that you would not reach it quickly and you would also not be able to run away. Secondly the massive spiny tail above your head and the fact that Nadders had a reaction speed of 0.0001 seconds was a great inhibitor and precluded you from doing anything, you could use your axes but the Nadder was much faster and you still didn't know how to use the weapons.


[The Edge Nadder, please note that the area shown in the picture isn't the actual place where the event is taking place, it is just to show you]

Both you and the beast were having a standoff which you were clearly losing. You were also running out of ideas on what to do as whatever you did would mean certain death, unfortunately for you, the Nadder made its decision.

It pounced onto you making you fall under its enormous weight and put one of its feet on your chest to stop you from getting away. You str

uggledimmensely but failed to escape. Tha Nadder than opened its mouth wide–wide enough to fit you inside, and started to slowly lower it towards your face, intent on enjoying its meal, saliva from the beast fell around you as you stared into the gaping maw of the creature, paralysed in fear as it slowly came towards you.

Tham suddenly an arrow hit the tail of the Nadder, the Nadder screeched in pain and in a few seconds, fell unconscious on top of you. You suddenly heard talking as several people in hunting clothes walked towards you. You could not see much due to the beast. However you could still hear the sound of wheels, suddenly a net was thrown onto the Nadder trapping you and the beast together. Both of you were than pulled onto a trolley with a blue cage on it, a dragon proof chain.

This meant that you had been captured by dragon hunters. You heard the door of your cage close and felt the cage start to move. Eventually you reached a beach and were loaded onto a hunter ship into one of the cages inside the ship. The net was removed and the hunters left. You slowly peaked outside by raising the wing of the Nadder and saw an empty hallway, thank god there were no guards.

[Dragon hunters]

[Dragon hunter ship]

You got out from under the dragon and went to the cell door. Around you were several other cells made of the same dragon proof doors with unconscious dragons inside of them, you saw the Monstrous Nightmare that had flew off, a Hideous Zippleback, a Gronkle and even a Thunderdrum.

You were not really worried about being trapped for long because of 2 reasons, firstly was that the gaps in the door were meant to hold back dragons and were wide enough for a skinny person and secondly, you were a skinny person. So you crawled out the bottom hole and looked around, your axes were gone, they had been thrown aside when the Nadder pounced on top of you, but you did have an extremely sharp Nadder spine. So you walked through the corridors until finally you reached a door. You put your ear next to the door and heard 2 hunters talking to each other.

"Where are we going now?" One asked. "We are taking this last shipment to Viggo, he is waiting for us" said the other.

You turned around and started going the otherway to find another exit while thinking. If Viggo was incharge of the operation than that meant this was around season 3 or 4 of Drgaons:Race to the Edge.

You kept walking until you found stairs leading upto the top deck. But something was wrong, you could smell fire and smoke and the roar of dragons and the screams of hunters. You quickly rushed to the top deck only to see 5 dragons flying around the ship and blasting it. There was a Monstrous Nightmare, a Gronkle, a Hideous Zippleback, a Deadly Nadder and last of all, the dragon which was your favourite. A Night Fury. On top of the dragons were riders. It was Hiccup and the gang! Meaning the Night Fury was Toothless. You ran towards the edge of the ship and saw that the it was sinking and life boats had been deployed. Hiccup and Toothless suddenly dived through the entrance of the lower deck and 5 seconds later flew out and were followed by the caged dragons. Hiccup spotted you and landed infront of you, he said "Your not a hunter are you, who are you?" You were in shock from seeing your idol infront of you, but you managed to say "I was captured by the hunters".

Suddenly the Deadly Nadder– Stormfly was her name, landed next to Hiccup and a girl jumped off, it was Astrid, and she was charging towards you with an axe in hand. Hiccup shouted "N-n-no Astrid wait! He's not a hunter!" Astrid suddenly stopped and turned towards him and they had a silent conversation through looks. Hiccup than said "Let's just take him to the edge and we'll talk further over there".

Astrid said "Okay but we're doing this my way." And than she proceeded to knock me out by hitting me with the bottom of her axe.

Everything than went dark.
