Triad

Eleven: Help

"We brought backup? Hiccup why didn't you tell us!" Tuffnut exclaimed, Ruffnut agreeing at hearing that and Hiccup gave a look back to the twins. "I did not-! Seriously you two? Kari- R- Reaper... look, no one followed us."

"How do we even know you're Kari? Last we heard she jumped off some cliff." Astrid said with crossing arms, not trusting this sudden woman who claims to be the dead girl from their village. Too much of a stretch.

"I don't have to explain myself to the likes of you." Reaper said with rolling her eyes, pinching the bridge of her nose before looking back at the Jeger who nudged her arm. "Make sure they don't leave this room, I'm checking this out."

Silver cooed worriedly at Reaper as her rider swung on, petting the top of the night fury's head. "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to our home. I promise alpha."

But the bewilder beast already knew that from the woman and never doubted her. Silver lunged into the air, landed onto the stone ledges and hiding places of the tunnels.

A familiar clicking sound echoed as the triple stryke landed on the tunnel, tail moving and wrapping as the figure lowered the hood from his head. His eyes looking around the tunnel, the triple stryke's claws tapping against the stone while he walked. "Keep your eyes peeled Sleuther."

Reaper was crouched lowly, holding onto Silver as the night fury gracefully moved in silence along the top of the tunnel. Her red eyes watching the triple stryke make his way under the pair, oblivious to the eyes watching them. Just one rider...?

"Hiccup!" The rider cheered loudly as Sleuther was standing by the edge of the tunnel, eyes widening at the open space and taken back by the view of it. Hiccup looked back from the frantic searching around, his stomach dropping. "You... what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to rescue you brother! Did you not think I would? I had a gut feeling!"

Brother... there's only person who would call him that.

"Where is she?" Hiccup called back, surrounded by Thor and Jeger. Both of them not happy, circling the brunette slowly and Dagur almost teased Hiccup about not being able to train the two angry dragons. Dagur was in awe on the skrill, looking at how powerful the beast looked.

Silver gracefully crawled down from the ledges, Reaper's green eyes focused on the figure sitting on the back of the triple stryke. She couldn't believe that this was him, especially seeing how much he's grown.

"This storm came out from nowhere! Do you think I should fight Thor??" Dagur asked with a giggle, aiming his crossbow to the sky before firing the arrow. There was water splashed, his foot kicking his boot before looking over at the redhead who was in her own little world.

Her body spinning in the rain, red hair messily tied back and strands sticking to her face. Dagur put his bow on his shoulder, hand on his hip as he watched the girl continuing to spin the rain. Her hands stretched out and a smile on her face. "Hey-!"

"Buttercup." Reaper said, dropping from the saddle of her night fury and landing in a crouch. One of her legs stretched out to the side, hand pressed against the ground as her eyes were staring at Dagur that turned around quickly at her voice. "Who the hell you calling buttercup?"

He demanded, sliding off of his dragon and grabbing his axe. The triple stryke turned with his rider, the clicking sound coming more as the trail curled together and raised. Low growling came above Reaper, red eyes seeming to glow in the darkness as the night fury readied on the ledge above. "Is... Is that?"

Dagur asked confused as Sleuther hissed, lowering his body and tail raising. Silver snarled, lunging off of the ledge and tackling Sleuther into the oasis. Growls and snaps coming from the dragon, Dagur turning his head quickly. "Sleuther!"
