Episode One City of Roars in Freeze City

It was cold and it was dark as the snow fell haphazardly down to the snow filled covered earth. The snow lay unperturbed until a black dragon with midnight scales littering over its body smoothly. Adorning its head where two ear fins and feelers. His back arch like feline with pair of black leathery wings, paired with pair of fins and at the base of the tail is a set of tail fins. Acid green eyes stared resolutely ahead as if searching for something. Its limbs quickly growing weary after days of walking; leaving trails in its wake. In its maw held a small white flower. This dragon was known amongst his kind as the Night Fury. The Night Fury trailed on in the snow through the ever-growing blizzard. Following some kind of trail, the lunar flower scent only spurring the Night Fury on. He had taken few more steps when suddenly his limbs froze, unable to continue on their path and the Night Fury fell into the snow drift.

The white flower had fallen from the Night Fury's maw and lay innocently in front of the aforementioned being. The Night Fury stared at the lunar flower, the eyes dimming their bright toxicity as the eyelids began to slowly close. He was so close was his last thought when the world faded into black.

Outside of the dome city of Freeze City, a train speeded away under the guise of night followed by wheelers. The wheelers drew closer to the train as men jumped from to land neatly on the train. Just as they landed they were erupted into flames as a military robot burst through the doors. Its military graded guns pointed at the band of thieves vehicles. The vehicles drove away as a black shadow jumped from the wheeler and onto the robot. As quickly as it happen it was over as the shadow cut off the robots head, disabling it. The clouds shifted and showed that the shadow was teen with pale skin and snow-white hair. His lake pooled eyes narrowed down at the waste disdainfully.

Turning to his men, he shouted orders at them. As the night wear on, the band of thieves made off with noble goods, shouting and cheering. One of the men shouted at his leader cheerfully.

"Come Jack, we've made it! Lighten up!", said the man.

The newly dubbed teen, Jack, smiled and laughed. Just then they heard a ringing noise in the sky as they looked up to see a noble ship fly overhead. The cheering stopped as they gaze up at the ship in mild disdain. Jack himself felt a growl rise up in his throat but swallowed it as to not alarm his men.

"Man… I really hate that sound", Jack grumble under his breath.

The night grew on colder as a large Viking-like man with vast stature walked down the road. His red braided beard swing left and right as he walks with stoic purpose. At his side was red-headed teen with sky blue eyes. Her dress was sea green and slung across her back was an arrows and a bow. Their names were Stoick the Vast and Merida. Stoick paused in front of the door that led to a bar. Turning to his partner he signaled to her to wait. At the girl's nod, he went inside. Merida leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. Inside Stoick pulled out a chair and ordered vodka.

"This city is less fit for a man much less fit for a dog", Stoick growled.

The bartender looked up from his work as he responded to the ex-sheriff.

"I do not know where your from but out here it's to survival fittest here", the bartender said as he caught sight of Stoick's gun.

Stoick noticing the man's gaze smiled, "Helps to have a friend out there. Don't know what might come across. Bears, wolves… dragons."

The bartender stilled from his work at the word dragons and smile wistfully.

"Now that's a tale I haven't heard since I was a child. My grandfather would tell me tales about mystical fire breathing flying reptiles. Said that only them know where to find paradise", the bartender chuckled.

Stoick slammed down his now empty glass and shouted, "Those reptiles are real alright! They're nothing but blood thirsty beasts who would take everything from you!"

The bartender raised his hands in a placating manner.

"Chill alright. Besides they've died out about two hundred years ago", said the bartender.

Outside, Merida raised her head up at the sound of knock over trash cans to see a band of men carrying loads of good walking down the alleyway. One of them was a teen. Merida's eyes widen exponentially at the sight of a white ice-covered dragon with fins on the side of its head attached to the pair of adorning horns. Sharp ice protrusions protruded from its forearms and mid back as dorsal spines. The fins flared open as the ice dragon sensed eyes on him and turned his head revealing a pair of lake pooled eyes.

Merida immediately drew her bow and notched an arrow but in her haste knocked over an empty trash can. The sound alerting her partner inside. Merida released her arrow but missed as the dragon shot forward and ran into the darkness of the alleyway. Stoick came bumbling out with his hand encased around the gun, pointing at the alleyway. Upon seeing empty space, Stoick glanced at his partner before walking into the alleyway. Kneeling down to see claw marks of the size of a dragon.

The underground was dark, but Jack easily made his way through it with his men at his heel.

"Jack wait up!", shouted from one of them.

Jack paused in his haste to get away to wait for his men. They pulled up in front of him gasping for air for their tired limbs since they were still carrying the loaded goods.

"What's the fire man…", wheezed one of them.

Instead of answering Jack replied, "Theirs another shipment coming tomorrow."

"Another one?", replied weakly a small kid of only fifteen.

Jack glanced at the kid then fixated the larger two men.

"You two are in advance", Jack said.

"Why doesn't that surprise us", muttered one of them.

"But we've lost two men just as of last night. We can't take another hit like that! We couldn't possibly…", the kid finished weakly.

Jack felt pity on the poor kid but knew that if they were to survive this winter then they had to act.

"You are on standby. Those who are not ready to fight should stay out of the way", Jack said as he turned and disappeared in the dark.

Next morning Jack found half of his men surrounding a tree, murmuring against each other. Curious Jack walked up to them but could not get a good look at what they're looking at. Fed up, Jack spoke announcing his presence.

"What is it?", Jack asks drawing a man attention away from the thing.

"It looks like a Komodo dragon, but I've seen anything like it", replied the man as he moves away from the object.

Jack gasp as he finally saw what his men are staring at. From the back of it, the scales were midnight black and at the base of the tail is a set of tailfins.

"That's not a Komodo dragon", Jack said, "Pull it out."

The men looked at each other hesitantly before reaching in under the tree and grasped the tail. The creatures eyes snapped open to reveal acidic green eyes. The creature jumped and lurch forward, its jaw embedded in the man's throat, killing him instantly. The creature pulled away and jumped to its next victim when a second men aimed a firearm at the thing. With its jaws enclosing on the throat, crushing the windpipe and bones under the pressure. Letting the lifeless corpse fall from its broad maw, lips draw back in a vicious snarl at the next poor victim.

Jack pushed the unfortunate victim out of the way drawing the creatures eyes to him. Jack smiled despite of the situation.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here", Jack snickered before jumping off the rock and running off.

The creature snarled before taking off after the teen. The unfortunate victim, or kid rather, stood up and ran after them. Jack turned to see that the dragon was chasing after him. Coming to a desolate spot with ruins of building here and there, Jack abruptly stopped and turned to face the midnight dragon. The dragon had its wings flared; its body crouched low to the ground. Its silted eyes narrowed in on him. In the dragon's eyes showed a white ice-covered dragon.

"That was quite the stunt you pulled", Jack said with no Ill intent in his words.

"I was protecting myself, nothing more", said the dragon.

"You shouldn't jumped to killing. Here, your presence alone will attract unwanted attention", Jack said.

"Your presence do not", snarled the dragon.

"I know how to hide. The question is do you?", Jack teased.

The dragon growls darkly at the tease.

"The name's Jack, I'm a Blizzard Wraith. What's yours?", Jack said.

The dragon paused in his growling to considered the question. The teen, Jack was it, looked friendly enough. Though now he's not growling with hostility, his eyes remain silted at Jack. The dragon raised his head to sniff at the air to distinguish any traps or hidden weapons. Finally the dragon nodded and raised his body from crouching. Sitting down on his haunches, the dragon fixated his stare on Jack. Jack fidgeted under the look, still waiting on the dragon's response.

"Hiccup… Hiccup the Night Fury", responded the dragon.

Jack's eyes bulged out of their sockets.

"The Night Fury!? I thought you guys were well…", Jack couldn't finish his sentence not wanting to seem rude.

The Night Fury tilted his head in a curious manner.

"What? Extinct? There are few of us now then ever were after a terrible fate", Hiccup said.

Jack's eyes grew darker at that sentence, the corner of his lips downturned.

"I'm sorry to hear that…", Jack murmured.

Hiccup lowered his head in somberness.

"I'm… I'm sorry for killing your friends", Hiccup muttered under his breath almost ashamedly.

Jack smile came back, lighting up his eyes. With a nonchalant wave, Jack responded, "Oh, don't worry. They're not my friends and really I was gonna drop them soon anyway."

Hiccup looked up in surprise but was interrupted by a kid who came barging in between them, swinging a wrench wildly with his eyes closed. Hiccup jumped back snarling when the wrench came close to connecting with his head. The kid position himself in front of Jack as of means to protect him from the black beast. At the intrusion, Hiccup lowered himself to the ground, bunching his muscles for an attack. Jack seeing this immediately took action. He could care less for adults, but kids were altogether a different manner. Jumping in between the two, Jack raised his arms up to separate the two beings.

"Woah, woah. Remember what I just said about killing?", Jack said as he faced the Night Fury.

Hiccup growled deeply in his throat before turning away and running off, without sparing Jack one last look. Jack released a breath he did not know he was holding. Turning to the kid, Jack fixated him with a stern look.

"Look kiddo, I appreciate you coming to my help and all but cannot risked your life like that! Who knows what that dragon would do to you", Jack said as he placed a consoling hand on the kids head.

"I-I just… wanted to help you as you've always helped me…", in a quieter voice he added, "… like friends."

Jack smile, "Of course we're friends silly. Now run along now while I try to find this wild dragon to give a stern talking to, alright?"

The kid smiled and ran off without a second thought, very elated to be called friends with the boss. Jack watched the kid go before turning to face the direction where the Night Fury ran off.

The Night Fury glared hatefully at his reflection. Toxic green eyes bearing hatred with the intensity to ignite fires. At the thought fires, an unpleasant image filled his mind. Scoffing away the hurtful image, Hiccup raised his right paw and slashed at the water. The water rippled greatly showing a distorted reflection of him then settled calmly now showing a full and detail reflection and something else. Hiccup whirled around snarling at the intruder from earlier.

"What do you want!?", Hiccup snarled.

Jack held up his hand in a placating manner, a grin stretched across his face.

"Chill, Hiccup. Just want to talk, alright?", Jack said cheerily.

Hiccup rolled his eyes and proceeded forward with the successfully ignoring the teen. That is until the teen jumped on his back. Hiccup instinctually reared up his back and buck the teen off of him. Turning and pouncing on the dazed boy, Hiccup roared in his ear. Placing one last hateful glare, Hiccup took off.

Jack, now undazed, shouted, "Wait! Not that way, it's the town!"

But the Night Fury was too far gone. Hiccup pulled into a trot after making sure he'd lost the snow-white hair teen. Snorting haughtily, Hiccup faced onward into the town. Drawing many glances thrown his way. Hiccup did his best to ignore them but when one curious man or hunter by the smell of him came close to Hiccup, Hiccup whirled and snapped at the poor hunter; the hunter scurrying off right afterward. Hiccup was just about turn a corner when heard a gun being cocked, turning sharply and baring himself low to the ground, Hiccup saw a man of Viking stature with burly braided red hair aiming a shotgun at him.

His partner beside him aimed her bow and arrow at him, her unruly red hair fell elegantly on her shoulders. But that's not what drew Hiccup's attention. But before he could so much bunch up his muscles to attack or flee, a thwack was heard of a released arrow; the arrow burrowing in itself in Hiccups right hind leg. Hiccup roared in pain as a second shot was heard this time by a gun. Blood splattered the streets.

Elsewhere in a bubble of unidentified liquid encased around a young boy, a boy around ten years old. The boys eyes were open to reveal chocolate brown irises and blood red orbs. Below a scientist looked up and gasped in shock drawing his partner to look at as well. The second scientist gasp and ran off to get higher authority.

Jack looked on in silence as the Night Fury was dragged and locked into a cage. The bullet has hit its mark but luckily, Jack was able to see that the bullet lodge itself in its left forearm, barely surpassing the scaly flesh. The scales were too thick for the bullet. With the cage secured to the truck, the truck spurred to life and drove off. Leaving an indignant Viking-like man behind sputtering about hunter's right and all. His partner off to the side looking after the rapidly disappearing truck.

"Well there goes making a new friend…", Jack muttered before taking off down the alleyway.

Blood dripped down from inside of the cage that holds the Night Fury. The Night Fury groaned softly in pain but remain still. Suddenly a flowery scent, a lunar flower scent reached his nose almost causing for Hiccup to upright instantly but was weary from traveling on foot and weak from lost of blood. Then there was a new scent filling his nostrils. Hiccup flared his nose as he took in the scent. It was a dragon. Slowly, Hiccup opened up his eyes to see a golden lung dragon. It was golden all over with short, nimble legs. Two adorning curved horns sat on the side of its head. Two thin whiskers on his long and thin but powerful snout. Its golden mane flowing freely as if it was flying.

This dragon was known as the Golden Crown amongst his kind. Its amber eyes stared inquisitively down at Hiccup. Though, Hiccup had a feeling he was mute. Rolling his eyes at meeting another dragon, even though this one was more sensible than the last, Hiccup closed his eyes in annoyance.

"What do you want?", Hiccup snarked.

The Golden Crown chirped in response but oddly enough, Hiccup could understand him without the use of words.

"Oh just don't mind me, it's not like I've got shot at twice and ended up here inside of a cage", Hiccup drawled.

The lung dragon chirped again. But before Hiccup had a chance to respond a third voice spoke, or more like shouted.

"Hey, you! What are doing in here, what department are you from?!", shouted a man standing next to a colorful lady.

The dragon, now very much a teen, slightly rounded with golden hair and amber eyes turned around in surprise. Hiccup chose to block out the one-sided conversation and closed his eyes.

Two figureheads of each different department walked hurriedly down the hall to the containment room. One tall and with a lean build with Easter blue colored hair tied up in a low ponytail; his arms littered with tribal tattoos. His eyes were the color of moss. His name was E. Aster Bunnymund, and he was a detective on this particular case. Next to him was a very vibrant and colorful lady with hair dyed like a rainbow of sorts, her body was petite, and she was wearing peacock feathered earrings. Her name was Toothiana, or Tooth for short. She happened to be a researcher and scientist under a secret government project on lunar flowers.

"I figured as much something like this would be under your office and so the very reason why I called you here Tooth", Bunny said.

"And do you think its alive?", Tooth asked out of curiosity.

"Just barely, could it be possible…", they entered the room to see a teen with golden hair and wearing yellow t-shirt and jeans, "Hey, you! What are doing in here, what department are you from?!"

The teen whirled around in surprise before gesturing wildly with his hands. Bunny grew more irritated at the fact that the kid was mute and had no way of communicating, that is until Tooth stepped forward.

"Oh, you're with the cleaning crew", Tooth said.

"The cleaning supplies are just down that hall", Bunny gestured to the hall on the left.

The teen nodded gratefully, turn and left down the hall but stopped short hidden in the darkness and peered out to eavesdrop. The two adults walked up to the cage and leaned down to stare at the creature.

"Do you think it could be a dragon?", Bunnymund asks.

"It could be possible. I never seen a dragon, and what's more this could be what's getting Jamie to react", Tooth said.

"Oh not this Jamie again", Bunny grumbled, "It because of him that you and I broke up."

Tooth rounded on Bunny, "Stop acting like an idiot and bring this up to the lab!"

Bunny took a step back, raising up his arm in surrender, "I'll have someone bring it up later. You know reptiles and I don't mix."

Tooth sighed, "And this is the reason why we would've never worked."

Bunny dropped his hands, "Oi, don't give up hope Tooth, everything will work out."

Jack signaled his men as he watched more shipment being delivered to the facility. About to signal his men to move but stopped when a familiar scent reached his nose. Turning to see the kid from earlier with clenched fists and determination swirling in his sea green eyes. His red hair blowing in the slight wind.

"I want to come with you guys… I want to fight! Just please… tell me what to do", the kid said.

Jack watch the kid for any signs of fear, contemplating on what should he do next.

The dragon returned and chirped at the Night Fury. Hiccup opened his eyes to regard the dragon before him before answering.

"I can get out whenever I've feel like to", Hiccup said tiredly, "I just need a place to rest."

The dragon growled before snapping at the bars.

"Leave the city with you?", Hiccup question in disbelief, "I can't leave… at least not yet."

The dragon chirped in question.

"I'm looking for something… it has a flower scent… a lunar scent", Hiccup said.

The Golden Crown seemed to have smiled before growling and snapping his jaws around the bar of the cage. Hiccup stilled in shock before he too snapped his powerful jaws on the cage and pulled. The bars were pried open enough for the Night Fury to crawl through. The Golden Crown yipped in joy and bounded over to Hiccup. Hiccup refrained from jumping back from the close space and nodded his gratitude.

"The names Hiccup", Hiccup said.

The dragon chirped in response.

"Sanderson? How about I'll call you Sandy for short?", Hiccup said.

0

The alarm was ringing loudly that Jack was pretty sure vibrated the whole city. Guns were blazing and nearly half of his men were dead. Tightening his hold on the loaded goods, Jack spared a glance at the kid who managed to survived and heaved a sigh of relief. Looking forward, it was a few more feet before they were scot free.

"Jack!", screamed a voice.

Jack looked back to see the kid barely hanging on a pipe that was about to brake under the weight. Jack threw the goods and run to the kids' side in an instant. Jack reached for the kid in fear, his fear disrupting his concentration on the spell. Allowing the kid to see his true form. The kid eyes widen in fear and screamed just as the pipe broke and he'd fell to his death. Jack could only watched in horror as his friend fell, his sharp eyes seeing the horror on the kids face. Stricken with horror, Jack forced himself up and escaped through the door.

Back at the station, the station was filled with cop cars; their lights lighting up the blank police department building. Hiccup and Sandy, now dubbed in their human form, easily snuck out the building and passed officer Bunnymund. Bunny reached up to scratch his suddenly itchy throat. Looking over his shoulder to see two teens, one from earlier today, walking down the steps. Shrugging Bunny refocus on the task at hand until an officer came running up to him.

"Sir, the reptile has escaped, and it's gone!", said the officer.

"What!", Bunny exclaimed and run in into the building with Tooth by his side.

Once upon entering the room, they saw the empty cage.

"It's gone!", Bunny shouted angrily.

"Do you think it could've escaped on its own?", Tooth asks curiously.

Sandy gestured to Hiccup who had smiled despite of the situation they found themselves in.

"Yeah, Sandy. Don't worry, my wounds have healed. After all, it is a full moon tonight", Hiccup said.

Hiccup laid down and stared at the moon for a few minutes before turning to face Sandy, a small smile hugging his face.

"So Sandy, what made you escape with me?", Hiccup asked in genuine curiosity.

Sandy gestured wildly.

"Oh yeah, thanks", Hiccup said.

Sandy gestured again.

Hiccup didn't need to turn to see what he'd signal this time.

"I'm heading to Paradise", Hiccup whispered in the wind.

Sandy looked shocked and surprise until a large grin adorn his facial features. Hiccup gazed up at the full moon and said:

"There isn't any moonlight here."
