21 The Purple Dragon
POV Elsa
“Els…hey.. Els,” I hear a voice repeating on my head like a broken record. I open up my eyes and see no one. “ELS!” The voice practically yelled and startled me. Now I realized that it was Jack that was speaking to me with his mind.
“Why did you wake me up in the middle of the night?” I thought and then I noticed that his mind seemed a bit worried. “Jack?” I said tightly. “Something’s up Els.. It’s bad and I wanted to warn you,” he sighed.
“What do you mean?” I said and then I could feel his heart beat getting faster. “Jack?” I asked again and then I felt sharp pain on my right arm, like something had cut it. It scared me, the short moment of silence that felt like taking ages.
“I’m sorry Els,” I heard Jack’s voice. “I should stop this connection between us now.. You can feel what I feel, right?” He whispered sadly. “You just got hurt?” I gasped in my mind. He just hummed. “Respond to me, Jack!” I ordered in panic while I was getting dressed. “It’s the followers of you know you. They’re in Hogwarts and some of them broke the passage to Slytherin. We’re fighting. Stay safe, will you,” Jack said and then I felt like a wall forming between us. I might have as well to be behind actual wall that’s between us, beating the wall and yelling. Without him hearing me like now.
“He is an idiot if he thinks that I’ll leave him,” I whispered to myself as I got myself ready. I grabbed my wand from table and I rushed to the entrance portrait. “Open,” I told to the doorway. It remained shut. “Open, now!” I said strictly. “Sorry miss Elsa. The school is in lockdown,” the painting told me and I rolled my eyes. “Do it or I will break you!” I couldn’t even finish when the portrait swung open and it slammed close right after I went through it.
I run to a corridor and I hear some chatting. It’s not the usual cheerful kind that you hear when students are discussing about their studies or even love life. No. This is something else, like plotting something. Something so horrifying that you don’t wish to know it. A mass murder.
POV Jack
“AVADA KEDAVRA!” A wizard yells and I quickly stand aside when the green colored curse is flying towards me. It hits on a sculpture of a snake that explodes behind of me. “Expelliarmus!” I shout and the spell hits on my opponent.
“Help!” I hear the other students yelling and running around in our house. They are not prepared, they’re not ready for opponent like this. “Go to that room!” I yell everyone that’s still inside the living room area. Some girls run screaming inside the boys bedroom. It will be their safety.
I touch my wand that turns into a staff, with one swung I managed to knock down the five followers of You-know-who. The moment I decided to use as my advantage when I ran towards the entrance of the room where students are hiding. “Back up!” I ordered and froze the doorway. It was now protected with thick ice.
Then I heard a torture curse being casted and after that someone threw enchanted swords at me. It cut my skin again, like before when the same person used the spell. I gritted my teeth as I blasted a strong whirlwind at them.
“You’ll regret this!” I heard Ursula yelling. Her voice made me feel the shivers. “Hah, like I would care!” I grinned and threw ice spikes at them, hitting them and nailing some of them against the wall. Suddenly she laughed deeply and hard. I felt the floor shaking and then I see how some vines are growing through the pebble floor. They tangled around my legs. “Looks like Maleficent got you, boy,” Ursula smiled deviously and I see how a woman with glowing eyes walks in front from the shadows. Her head has two horns and she is playing with her staff that has a crystal ball on the end. I grunted when the vines grew spikes. Roses?
The spiky vines are growing fast, wrapping themselves around my body. The spikes are pressing through my skin, causing blood to run from the wounds. “Expelliarmus!” Someone yells and then I see a small flame twirling around me. It burns off the vines and I’m free.
“C’mon Frost!” I feel myself being pulled from my sleeve. “Vanellope?” I gasped when I saw the small girl. “Well I’m not Merlin for sure,” she groaned and pulled me harder. “I said c’mon!” She snapped and I glance at the room where I sealed other students from my house. “They’ll be safe and I didn’t go there,” she said answering to my nonspoken questions.
“Do you want them to beat us?” Vanellope sighed and I woke up from my thoughts. We are running outside from the house, through corridors. “You-know-who is after her,” I hear Ursula’s voice and I look over my shoulder. “He will get your precious girl,” Ursula laughed and my heart is aching.
When we reached safe distance I told Vanellope to stop. “What now? We need the teachers,” she sighed and crossed her arms. “I need to check something first,” I whispered and leaned against the wall. I let my thoughts and mind wander around, searching for special someone.
“Found you,” I whispered. “Found who?” Vanellope asked curiously. “Elsa,” I smile to Vanellope and ask her to keep an eye and to stay silent.
“Els.. Please tell me that you’re still in the house of Ravenclaw?” I pleaded from her. “Thank you Merlin! Where did you go Jack? I was so worried,” she sounded relieved but like being in a hurry for something. “Just tell me Els, are you in Ravenclaw or not?” I ordered her and she was quiet for moment.
“No, I left to search for you,” she responded. My heart ached, the worry filled me and I wanted her to be somewhere safe. “Where are you?” I whispered in my mind. “Few meters away from the staircase leading to basement and Slytherin’s house,” she said in her determined way. I gulped, “Don’t go there. Hide yourself in dining hall and I’ll meet you there. You’re not safe.”
“Umm. Alright,” she finally promised and I felt a bit more relieved. Then I startled when something exploded in the nearby. I see fighting going on outside and I kneel down with Vanellope.
“Dragons?” Vanellope whispered and I nodded. I see how Hiccup is fighting outside with his dragons. One of the dragons has Astrid as their rider. They’re fighting against.. against… Mad Madam Mim.. I’ve heard of her and I recognize her purple dragon form from movies. The battle seems intense.
“Let’s move,” I whisper to Vanellope and we sneak towards the dining hall. Then I heard Elsa screaming inside my head loudly, I feel her pain and I fell to ground. My body is twitching and Vanellope tries to hold me still. “What’s happening?” Vanellope gasped.
I feel shocked when the pain ended. “J-Jack..” Elsa’s voice reaches my consciousness. “Stay a-away.. it’s You-know-who..” Elsa begged from me. “Where are you?” I tried to ask from her.
“Hello Spirit,” I hear a voice different from Elsa’s. How does it come from Elsa’s mind? “I’ve got her under my control. Come to dining hall and do what I’ll tell you to do. It’s time that you’ll meet the Lord of Darkness,” I heard an evil laughter and I’m panting. “Who are you?” I whispered.
“My name is Pitch, you I know well.. Jack Frost,” the voice spoke and then disappeared. “What just happened?” Vanellope stares at me and I feel cold sweat dripping down from my forehead. “You-know-who.. he has her, my Elsa,” I whispered.
Vanellope sighed, “Well… You should get her back?” I smile to her and nod. “Yeah, I’ll use all of my power to do so,” I said and she helped me back up.
POV Hiccup
Animagi. Of course she had to be an animagi. I stare at our opponent, the purple dragon. I jumped aside when she breathed fire. I heard some stories about her, the mad Witch. Mad Madam Mim.
She’s as old as the legendary Merlin himself but the time hasn’t been gentle with her. I don’t know which is uglier, her dragon form or her witch form. Astrid flies with Stormfly who breaths fire towards the purple dragon that’s now disappeared on the flame ocean.
“Way to go Astrid!” I yell and she flies past me. “Thanks hon,” she yells and sends me a blow kiss, causing me to blush. Then I feel a push on my side and I see Toothless jumping around, certainly seeming restless. “What’s up buddy?” I ask and raise my eyebrow. He points towards the flames and frowns, I hear him growling. There’s something.
I startled when there was an explosion and the flames were sucked out by the explosion wave. I see the purple dragon glaring at me and then it shrieked, “You two dare to challenge me!”
Okay, this is freaking me out. Dragons don’t talk. I don’t exactly like animagis right now. The shock froze me and I stare at the creature. I hear the muffled voice of Astrid yelling to me at the background. The purple dragon is growing on its size and I gulped.
Then Toothless walked in front of me and pushed me gently while he huffed anxiously. I see how the purple dragon inhales deeply, preparing to shoot us with flames. I jump on top of Toothless, attaching my artificial leg to guiding device. We need each other. We fly together.
Toothless runs and jumps up while flapping it’s wings. We rise above the clouds quickly and I guide him. He dives to left and I see how the beam of flames passes us. We dodged it together. “Good boy Toothless,” I patted it’s neck when we float up. Then Astrid joins us. “It was so close! You should be happy to have a dragon like that,” she sighed in relief and I nodded. “I couldn’t be happier,” I grinned and turn us around.
“Time to emerge,” I chuckled and then we fly down with speed that’s increasing every moment. “Ready yourself,” I whisper to Toothless who purred. I knew that he is ready, he always is. I see the glow on his side when he is preparing for his ultimate attack. The extremely blue flame that he shoots out in a ball that explodes after it hits to its target. I truly wish that it works out like we planned when we first saw the animagi attacking towards castle. When we decided to go and stop it. This date sure was different.
“Now!” I yell when we see the purple dragon that’s now higher than the highest tree in the yard of school of wizardly. Toothless growled and spat out the blue and extremely hot flame ball. The purple dragon couldn’t avoid the hit, our attack was too fast.
Toothless spread it’s wings and stopped our speed, we float in the air while he flaps his wings. We look down when the fire ball hits to purple dragon and explodes. Mad Madam Mim screams and is being surrounded by the blue flame. I see how the figure goes smaller and smaller. Then finally, when the flame wore out I see how Madam Mim, the witch, lays on the ground without moving.
Astrid is already landing and runs to Madam Mim while holding her wand ready. We land down and Astrid yells that Mim is unconscious while she casts a spell to tie the Mad witch. I run to hug Astrid. “We did it,” I sighed in relief.
“Of course we did! But I guess that there’s more trouble coming up,” she said and pointed at the school. It seemed like a warzone. I see how other dragons that the eggs hatched into landed against us. “So you guys heard the battle and came to aid us?” I said and patted the brown and chubby one, Meatlug. “They did but..” Astrid sighed.
“I know, we need more riders,” I said and went near Toothless. My hand petted my dragons neck. “Do you know anyone who’s capable of handling these mystical creatures?” I asked and she nodded. “Yes. From my town,” she grinned.
“Who are they?” I asked curiously. “The twins, Ruffnut and Tuffnut Thorston. Snotlout Jorgenson and Fishlegs Ingerman,” she said while walking towards the school. “Those bullies?” I gasped and she nodded. “They’re the best options!” She said securely and I sighed. “Alright, I put my faith in you,” I smiled.
Toothless shot out couple of enemies while we went inside the castle. Unfortunately now we were on our own. The castle’s corridors were too small for our dragons to enter. They went into hiding because we asked them to. “Let’s try to not to attract unwanted attention for now,” I whispered and she nodded when we were sneaking around the castle. We need to get our new riders, fast.
