Here is the update i promised you all. Sorry it took so long, it's just school and stuff. Just so you all know i did not see the hidden world yet, though from what i have heard is that i may need to bring tissues for the movie. Anyway, enjoy the story, please like and review and like always 'How to train your dragon belongs to dreamworks. Aliyah, Rush, Nathan and Starchaser however are mine.

Rush and his dragons arrived off the coast of the island of the bone rider within a few hours. Alongside Rush, Star chaser and Ghost were some Scauldrons that had so gracious offered to help them, especially after Rush and their leader had a nice talk of fire and water. It turns out that if you try to douse a stream of fire with boiling hot water, the water can just vaporize in an instant.

As Rush and the dragons flew towards the island, the rider began notice a series of jagged rocks and rock walls, off the coast. There was also the wreckage from various ships that had sailed towards the island itself. The cloaked boy looked at the island itself or where he assumed it was hiding as a huge thick cloud of smoke ahead of him had hidden the island much like the one that hid the nest close to Berk, concealing the island from any unwanted vikings or hunters. Looking back from the island to the wreckage, Rush noted how far back the fog had receded. "Those Smoke Breaths are gonna have some catching up to do once we get this all sorted out." He told Ghost. The dragon let out a soft growl as affirming his thoughts. Looking over to his side Rush noticed hid other partner or shared partner at least, Starchaser.

Rush called to Starchaser, the dragon slowed its flight and hovered next to Rush and Ghost. "I want you to stay here and keep an eye on the Scauldrons." Rush told the dragon. "Also I need you to use some of your fire sparingly to boil some of the water nearby, create as much steam as possible with the Scauldrons." He told the dragon. He was about to fly off with Ghost to deal with the Deathsongs when one last thought enter his head.

"Oh, and Starchaser. If we need help we'll send a distress signal so stay alert and if you see trouble, I want you to send a S.O.S. or come and find us, especially if its dragon hunters. We don't want you or us disappearing." He told the dragon. Starchaser seemed to want to say something to that last statement but held his tongue. Before he left Rush ordered to water dragons to start spewing their hot water over various parts of the ocean close to the island.

When Rush had arrived the island was surprisingly quiet, especially considering the dragons that were usually native to it. Looking around he saw the bones and skeletons that the bone knappers had usually collected just lying there. There were no dragons or any animals at all on the island.

"This is making uneasy." Rush said to Ghost. It was normal for islands with Deathsongs to be rather scarce of life, but this island was only invaded a few days ago. Was it really possible for a small group Dragons to be able to tear down an ecosystem as fast as this?

Ghost listened for the alluring call of the Deathsongs, the draconian equivalent to the sailor's siren. Most dragons who heard it were often drawn to their death, unless you happened to be a phantom then death's call was meaningless. As the duo flew they avoided any particular part if the island where the song felt strong. Hopefully since the dragons were singing, it meant Nathan had cleared the island if its dragon population and was waiting for them to arrive. The alternative was an island wide genocide of life so Rush was hoping it was optimistic option.

"Let's hope that bag of bones is doing alright." Rush said as the flew around looking for Nathan.

Gothi had learnt long ago that appearances can be deceiving and that was especially true for Rush and Aliyah, but it was still surprising, and to some extent hilarious, to see what was going on. Aliyah had easily picked up Kordon Ingerman, and had carried him on her shoulders inside the healer's hut before dropping him on a chair. Gothi followed her and began preparing some pain killers and a story to tell when he woke up. There was no doubt in her mind that Kordon had seen Rush, why else would he want the man to feel like he was hallucinating.

Gothi rubbed her temples though; it would be difficult to trick Kordon, because the man did what some Vikings rarely ever considered. He thought things true. He, much like Hiccup would think things true. He would dedicate time to learning about some of the plants and animals (dragons included) on the island and was training his son to love knowledge just the same. It would take some serious planning or a really convoluted story to convince him, he'd probably have a lot of logical and reasonable explanations for why he wasn't hallucinating, but Gothi had something more. She had experience, wisdom and a friend who could easily disappear.

Aliyah merely looked at the shelf grumbling under her breath, before Gothi tapped her on her shoulder. She turned to the healer and saw that Gothi had written something in the sand. Its words got a small frown out of Aliyah's face as she knew what it meant.

"Maybe old age really is making her crazy." Aliyah said to her self as she walked into the back room of the hut, while the healer was left with Kordon. Aliyah arrived in the backroom and began looking through the cupboard. There was several old pieces of fabric and cloth as well as some other things that Gothi had kept over the years. It was an amazing sight, but at the moment Aliyah didn't need something she could see. She needed something that she couldn't see. The girl felt around the back of the cupboard till her hand struck something hard. Looking inside the cupboard it didn't appear as if anything was there but the girl knew better. Feeling around the empty cupboard, Aliyah's hand eventually knocked something solid in mid air. Grasping at the object, Aliyah pulled it out of the cupboard. She moved her fingers across the unseen item before she felt a flap. Pulling at the flap the buts of the object became visible from where she tugged. It wasn't long till she had completely removed the changewing skin that had concealed the box.

"Haven't seen you in a while." The girl thought as she looked at the box. The box was made from a very special metal ore, found only on a distant island. It was due to this metal that the box was so special. Aliyah felt her spine shiver as she remembered the last time the box was opened. She had done so clean it and upon opening it the girl had been plagued with nightmares for days. It was safe to say that if they needed to make someone assume they were going insane, this would be the perfect tool.

"This better work or else." Aliyah grumbled as she brought the box back to Gothi. The healer merely dismissed her before looking at a sleeping Kordon. "Let's just hope he isn't messed up to badly." Aliyah said as the put the plan in motion.

"Amber from a Deathsong." Rush told himself, "Useful when you need something strong and transparent…..but.."

"Oh shut up Alias." Nathan told him. Rush let out a chuckle as took in Nathan's situation. The bone rider was currently stuck in the amber…upside down. Rush poured some of the nightmare gel on top of the amber shell of the bone rider.

"Wait a minute, you're not going to." Nathan said as he saw Rush pour the nightmare gel all over his lower body, and he also saw Rush's eyes gain an evil glint. "ALIAS."

"I got a bath from a Scauldron earlier. You owe me." Rush told him as his hand produced a small flame. "Fire in the tailbone." Rush said as he struck the amber

BOOOOM!

A huge pillar of steam erupted from a lake as Nathan jumped in. Rush was nowhere to be seen having already left to see about the Deathsongs all the while leaving Nathan to deal with an inflamed nether region. The bone rider was not happy about this, not a bit. "I should have asked Aliyah instead." Nathan grimaced. The rider perked up when he heard several loud roars shaking the forest. No doubt Rush had already found the Deathsongs, yet Nathan himself had a feeling Rush was going to have a bad time facing these dragons.

Rush huffed as he got back to his feet after taking a whack from the dragon's tail. This was a lot harder than he had thought it would be but what was life without struggles. Now if only those struggles weren't in the form of an amber covered tail swing towards him. The cloaked by did his best to dodge the strike, but the tail still hit him and he felt his bones shake from impact.

Deathsongs were usually simple dragons. They sang to attract other dragons. They trapped them in their amber. They ate those dragons. They repeated the process. So why was it that these Deathsongs had to be the ones to use their amber as a both armour and weaponry; the dragons had covered their legs, chests, backs and tail tips with amber as well as their skulls. It protected them from bruises in close combat while also being a good way to get up close and personal with any dragon or rider. Rush couldn't even blast it off of them, because the moment they lost the amber, they would start working on making a new set, and it was pretty easy to make armour, when you literally upchuck the materials.

Rush heard a familiar roar from above his head. "Are you kidding me?" Rush said looking up in time to see Ghost's back approach him. The silver phantom landed directly on top of the cloaked figure. Rush freed himself from under the dragon, just in time to see a Deathsong land in front him.

"Odin's bear-" Rush was cut off when a familiar skeleton dragon rammed into it, "never mind Odin." Rush called out. Skellington had struck the Deathsong before it could trap Rush, but the moment was short lived when more amber armoured dragons showed up. Skellington tried to roar to intimidate them, but all that came out was a gasping sound.

"We have got to fix your armour." Rush told the dragon. A Deathsong lunged for the trio but was immediately cut short by a bone club tail to the face. Despite being protected by amber, the impact from Skell's tale was more than enough to make them see stars. However before his victory could be celebrated, Skell was shot down by the other Deathsongs, stuck in the amber much like his rider previously was.

Satisfied that both dragons were downed, the Deathsongs then turned their attention to the only hostile left, except only to see him holding up a pair of…bolas that had small flames emitting from them. Before they even knew it, Rush tossed the bolas at one of the dragons wrapping up its wings. The dragon lost altitude and fell to ground, the bolas exploding and destroying its armour just before it landed. "Two down three to go." Rush said as he turned to the other dragons, another pair of bolas in hand.

Exploding bolas, a unique invention made by none other the great Ruff and Tuff Thortsons. When they first had the idea killing dragon with explosions the invention seemed completely useless at first when dealing with dragons due there fire resistance, Rush however had found much use for it in his escapades across the archipelago when dealing with humans. However while it wasn't useful in killing something resistant to fire, it was sure useful in breaking apart what was not fire proof.

"Those kids are mad geniuses." He told himself as he readied to throw the third set, but before the bola even left his hand, a large chunk of amber encased his arm. Rush was able to keep his arm from sticking to the ground but the amber had encased what it needed to. He tried igniting a flame in other hand to break it open but before a flame could even ignite; his other free arm was encased in amber.

Rush backed up as the three dragons approached him. He raised his now amber covered arms as he attempted to make a last stand. The dragons shot more amber at him, encasing his legs. One of the dragons moved its head closer to him, licking its lips as it brought its teeth closer to his head, before….

BAM!

Rush used his amber covered fist to smack the dragon away. The other dragons seeing what was happen to their brethren roared at him before they lunged. The cloaked boy raised his fists and blocked some of one of them, but the other two circled around. One of the dragons grabbed a hold of his fist, and while Rush was trying to free himself, another dragon bit down on his shoulders. Rush winced as the dragon's teeth sank into his shoulders. A second dragon also bit down to the side of ribs. The three dragons then began to pull at him, their teeth trying to pull against Rush's skin. It would have torn him to pieces if Rush had human skin….but Rush was a little more than just human and his skin could take more than a little mauling from a couple of dragons, but that didn't mean it hurt any less.

Ghost began to stir as he felt a hand tapping his head. The dragon opened his eyes to see Nathan looking back at him. The silver phantom felt his eyes become heavy once more until Nathan stamped him in the stomach jolting the dragon awake. The dragon looked around as he attempted to get up, noticing the amber exploded off of Skell. The dragon then turned his head when he heard the feeding frenzy from the Deathsongs further away. He looked up to see the three dragons clustering around something and then the scent of fresh blood caught his nostrils. The silver phantom's eyes turned to slits as released a thundering roar and shot a stream of fire into the air. The three Deathsongs turned to face them, the bone rider and the two dragons standing ready to brawl once more.

The Rider and the dragons charged as did the Deathsongs. The amber shooting dragons seemed all dried up at the moment as they used more melee styled attacks, their amber armour reinforcing the damage dealt. It was bone armour against amber armour, each combatant trading blow for blow. The jagged edges of Nathan's bone armour dug into the exposed skin of a Deathsong while its Amber covered claws crushed him and cracked his armour. Skell attempted to club another Deathsong but the dragon mirrored his bone club tail with and amber club tail.

Ghost was fairing the least among the three but his rage easily pushed him pass all fighters. The dragon rammed himself into the last Deathsong and began clawing and biting his opponent, but the Death song refused to relent. Both dragons began to brawl and while the Deathsong's armour did help, Ghost's tenacity was more powerful as he began to gain the upper hand. Ghost bit into the exposed wings of the Deathsong, tearing sizeable holes in them to keep the dragon grounded. Ghost had thrown the other dragon on his back and was raring up for a finishing blow when he felt the back his head become fully encased in amber as it spread around to the sides of his mouth.

The two dragons Rush had incapacitated before for were now awake and the advantage seemed to be slipping in favour of the Deathsongs. Nathan dodged a shot of amber from one of the recovered dragons, not desiring a repeat of previous events. He and Skell had made their way over to Rush as did Ghost, amber covered head and all. The five Deathsongs were now grouped up standing against them. Rush was bleeding from the all the dragon teeth that punctured him and he and Ghost were handicapped by various amber coatings, Skell had broken bone armour, same as Nathan. The Deathsongs themselves weren't fairing any better either. It was clear that they had taken their fair share of punishments; torn wings, deep gashes on their sides and some of them look like they were still disoriented from either the explosions or clubs to the head.

It was pretty clear that if they continued, some of them were not going to leave this island with all their limbs, while some might not leave alive. However Ghost was smirking internally, because despite his head being encased in amber and his back sore from the fall, he had been able to fire a shot. A distress shot. A loud screech had echoed in the sky as a familiar white dragon approached the battle scene with unmatched speed its tail blazing with its fire. The humans and their dragons all braced themselves knowing who the roar belonged to and was about to go down.

BOOOOOOOOM!

Starchaser flew past them in a white blur, a literal shooting star and a sonic boom happened. A powerful stream of wind erupted as the force from the explosions tore through the island. Much like on Berk, the ground was cracked wide open as the trees were ignited and began to fall in the direction the dragon flew. The blast pushed the five Deathsongs and sent them hurtling into the air and into some of the ignited trees, their armour all but shattered by the heat from the ignited trees and the force from the impact. Starchaser did a full five loop de loops burning out his excess energy before landing right in front the five knocked out Deathsongs. The larger dragon roared in dominance over his fallen foes.

"What a show off." Rush told Nathan, who was practically pressed against the floor from the sonic boom. "We do all the work and he just comes in steals all the glory." Rush joked with the dragons and Nathan.

"Say what you want, but he knows how to make an entrance at least." Nathan responded as he tried to get to his feet. Despite them all being prepared for the blast, they didn't exactly escaped unscathed, although they did come out in better shape than the Deathsongs. Nathan and Skell's bone armour had practically shattered on them leaving them both without armour and in Skell's case exposed. The amber covering Rush and Ghost was broken…..in some areas. Rush's arms and legs were still covered but now his legs were free from being stuck to the ground, and Ghost…Ghost now looked like he had amber spikes running from the top of his head down to his back.

All in all, everything was hurting in the riders and their dragons but they were still standing...till it all went dark. Rush felt himself lose all feeling in his body as the blood loss finally kicked in. The next thing he knew was that the ground was flying straight up into his face and sound of his friends were becoming silent. The world around him was swallowed by the shadows.

So like always, please feel free to share your thought on the story and what you all like and dislike about it.
