#damian hook

Cordelia panted heavily as she raced towards the base, a good hundred guards behind her; Mal among them. It had been another failed prison break, and now Cordelia was minutes away from capture…or death; Mal looked very mad. She couldn’t let Mal find where the base was, she had to go for the underwater entrance for any hope of Mal losing track of her.

As she slid to a stop along the cliff edge she cursed under her breath. Low tide? Now!? Of all times?! The entrance was in full view, she’d never be able to sneak in before they caught her or found it. “shit shit shit” Cordelia muttered, looking around wildly for a way to escape; she screamed as a blast hit just behind her and she spun around, brandishing her sword, the waves becoming unstable and the clouds darkening with a storm, faint lightning costing across the darkness.

“you have nowhere to run shrimpy jr~.” Mal taunted, fire dancing across her palms as her eyes glowed with malicious glee “so just give up, and I’ll make your death painless” Cordelia just curled her lip, and from the corner of her eye, she saw her parents, uncle Gil, Lia and K’Marah peeking out from the topside entrance.

Cordelia took a deep breath and got into a fighting stance, ready to fight for her family and freedom. Mal just pursed her lips, bored and perturbed “fine then, I’ll have fun cutting off every single one of your disgusting hairs.” Mal sent a blast to Cordelia and Cordelia dashed to the side, the fire dancing aside her waist

“fuck” she muttered, running back and forth across the cliffside to avoid Mal’s blasts, trying to look for an opening to strike her. The guards laughed at her, all shouting taunts.

“run piggy run~!”

“come on shrimpy jr! you can’t run forever~!”

Cordelia looked back towards her parents, who were slowly creeping out of the topside entrance, Harry walking towards her as Uma was locked onto Mal, who was too distracted with trying to kill her. But that had been her mistake, Mal got a good shot at her when she was looking away and fire slammed into her side, sending her toppling over the cliff into the rocky shores below “CORDELIA” her parents screamed in terror, Uma redirecting from Mal top the cliffside, going to dive after Cordelia as Lia spread her wings and zoomed towards the cliff.

Mal laughed, pausing as she felt a sudden rush of static electricity, her hair raising at the ends “wha-“ Uma, Harry, and Lia were pushed back by a strong gust of wind coming up from the cliffside, a large sleek black form darting up to the sky, two gigantic wings spread at its sides.

“A DRAGON?” Mal screamed, not just yet realizing what was going on, then her eyes widened, watching as lightning crackled around the beast. Then it spun around, revealing a red/black-clad armored teen on its back, Cordelia in the arms of the rider.

“NIGHT FURY” Mal’s guards screamed, knowing all too well who had shown up just in the nick of time “GET DOWN” the dragon, a night fury, descended from the sky so quickly its body cut through the air causing the wind to sing. it zoomed above the guards, letting out a strong blast of plasma that blew nearly all of them away-clearly much stronger than Mal’s blasts against Cordelia.

“wait-“ Harry muttered as he looked at the dragon and its rider, still holding his daughter in their arms “-that’s-“ Harry smiled, spotting the small hook symbol on the rider's right shoulder pad. “DAMIAN!”

Uma burst into a grin, her son, her baby boy was back-and riding a whole ass dragon! He had saved Cordelia!...wait-if-if Damian was here-that meant. She looked up, eyes filling with tears as lightning crashed against the sky, spotting a gigantic winged and spiked shadow above the clouds that moved so quickly; that if you weren’t looking for it you would miss it.

Mal let out a scream, fire dancing around her feet. But her anger turned to terror as lightning struck just a few feet in front of her, and she could swear she saw a large form within the bolt ‘fuck-fuck fuck fuck’ Mal thought rapidly, backing away as a devastating roar echoed from above the black clouds. She finally realized what was happening, who was the dragon rider on the back of the night fury, who had sent lighting at her feet.

Shit-fuck it was Harry and Uma’s damn wife and son! FUCK-SHE WAS DEAD-SHE WAS FUCKING DEAD-THEY HAD KILLED DRAGONS FOR A LIVING-SHE WAS FUCKING DEAD.

Mal fell back as another bolt of lightning hit the ground a few feet away from her, the form she thought she saw taking its place as thunder crashed around her. “R-Rose-Heey~” Mal tried to soften the blow of her inevitable smackdown, as the glowing-lightning enveloped- whiteish blue eyes of Rose Tougard-Hook stared her down, lightning crackling around her body and great sword “I was just-ya knoow~ sayin’ hi to Uma n Cordelia~ nothing-nothing bad-“ Mal didn’t get to finish her bullshit before she screamed again, a gigantic skrill-nightfury landing behind his rider, his wings and horns crackling with lighting.

“Ya’ blasted meh daughter off tha’ cliff, I wouldn’t say tha’s ‘sayin’ hi’” Mal shivered at the dark tone of the Viking chief's voice, Rose stepping closer as Mal scrambled back. Mal had always been terrified of Rose, the girl able to tap into her powers even behind the barrier.

And Mal usually thought she never did a thing wrong, that she was the strongest, that she was the best. Not this time; not when faced by the chief of lightning and dragon master of the north isles.

Mal twisted around, turning to smoke and scales taking place of her skin, her dragon form rising to the sky. But she screamed as her tail was pulled on and she was slammed back onto the ground. She turned her head, roaring in horror as Rose continued to hold her tail, her lighting enveloped eyes staring her down “yer no’t getting; away!” Rose bellowed, lighting crackling through the sky and thunder rumbling around them, echoing in Mal’s now very sensitive ears.

Uma tore her eyes away from the terrifying view, running towards the sleek black dragon that descended to the ground, her children sliding off the beasts’ back as she called their names “Damian! Cordelia!” the taller of the two teens, Damian, ripped off his helmet; revealing his striking similarities to Harry-from the bright blue eyes to their fluffy black hair. “Ma!” he called happily, throwing his helmet to the ground as he ran towards her with Cordelia just behind him (curse her short legs)

Uma accepted the bear hug as Damian slammed into her, his arms wrapping around her shoulders as her arms grabbed at his waist. “my baby boy” she whispered, pulling back to get a good look at him, he was older than she last saw him, much taller too-he had easily surprised Harry and was making his way to meet Rose. “you’re all grown up” Uma whispered, a sad tone to her voice as she cupped Damian's smooth cheek; and he had, she hadn’t seen the boy since he was 12-and now he was 16-a young man instead of that gap-toothed kid she used to blow raspberries against his cheek. He smiled sadly, holding his mother's hand that rested on his cheek.

“you look tired ma” he muttered back, his accent bleeding through each word. Uma laughed gently, shrugging slightly.

“I am” Damian just furrowed his brows a bit, and Uma shook his concern off “I’ll be fine though, you and your mom will take a lot of the stress away” Damian brightened at that, then his expression went dark-Uma turned, curling her lip a bit as she watched Mal’s dragon form fly away, heavily injured but alive. Rose stood below her, lightning still crackling around her form.

The two dragons roared and snarled, and while Uma couldn’t speak dragon she could easily understand them ‘coward’ they called Mal, both prepared to chase after the false dragon but Rose turned, walking toward Harry as he practically bounced in place; clearly happy to see her. “ ‘ello my dear” Rose cooed, holding Harry close to her chest as he slammed into her, his head barely reaching past her shoulder. “I’ve missed yeh” Uma could tell he warbled something in her ear as she chuckled lightly “I know I know, now go say hi to yer son” Harry pulled away slowly, going on his toes to kiss her cheek before turning to bolt towards Damian who pulled away from Uma and tackled Harry to the ground, the two immediately going into a roughhousing play.

Rose and Uma chuckled at the two, Cordelia quickly moving to hug Rose before Uma got the chance, Uma pouting slightly as Rose held Cordelia close to her, one hand gently scratching the back of her head “I missed yeh meh little dewdrop” Rose whispered, Cordelia choking up a bit at the nickname she hadn’t heard in four years.

“miss’d ya too mama” she muttered back, burying her face into Rose's fur hood. After a few minutes, she pulled away, grinning as Uma jumped into Rose’s arms. She laughed, turning to join into her brother and father's wrestling match, Damian making a loud squawking sound as Cordelia jumped on him.

Rose laughed gently as Uma pecked her cheek and the corner of her lips multiple times “darling-love-Um-i-“ she could hardly speak through Uma’s enthusiasm, so she knelt down slightly and picked up Uma, the sea witch pausing to get comfy in her wife’s arms “there-I missed yeh too love, all of yeh.” Rose kissed Uma’s jaw, to which Uma giggled and blushed heavily, feeling like she was 17 and meeting Rose for the first time all over again. “now” Rose set Uma down and held out her hand, Harry-who had finally been let up from the wrestling match, taking her hand and stepping closer to her, having to look up to actually look at her. “wha’ exactly has been going on? An’ how can we help?”

Uma sighed loudly, trailing her fingers against the scaly head of Mjölnir as he pushed his spikey head under her arm, purring as she scratched at his nose-bridge; Stormbreaker looking very jealous until Harry started scratching under her chin. “let me tell you inside the base….will the dragons be able to fit in the top side entrance?” both the dragon’s and their riders glanced at the narrow entrance and Mjölnir shook his head, the spikes on his back ignited with lightning, and he disappeared for a moment before appearing again, wagging his tail as Uma looked at him impressed “lightning teleport inside then…okay, can-“ Uma, going to ask Damian if Stormy could do the same, laughed as she turned, seeing Stormy already trying to get through the topside entrance. “Ummm, Damian? Want to help your dragon?” Damian groaned at his dragon’s antics and raced over to her. Pushing at her side as she scrambled to fit through the opening.

“come on, let's get inside,” Harry said, curling his hand around Rose’s arm and the other he tossed around Cordelia's shoulders “it's gettin’ dark.” Rose hummed, taking Harry's waist and then Uma’s hand.

“aye, let's go”

Lia and K’Marah stared awkwardly at the two dragons looking around at the base, the larger of the two calm and alert as the smaller one bounced around with a toothless grin. They didn’t trust these -Yaqal’s-, on their planet dragons were symbols of evil, of corruption. And from what they learned from Uma, dragons here were, more often than not; also evil. So-why did they trust these dragons? And who exactly were these two dragon riders that Uma and her family seemed very attached to?

It wasn’t until another hour later, that everything was explained to both Lia and Rose. From the original invite from Prince alexander, and then Mal and her mother’s take over, the breaking of the barrier, and then the last four months; including the arrival of Lia and K’Marah. And then Uma and Harry explained to Lia; who Rose and Damian were. Their wife and son, Rose was betrothed to Harry before either of them were ever born; and then years later the three teens fell in love and married each other willingly. And then however many years later and two days apart, Damian and Cordelia were born, Damian being the older one.

And while that explained their attachment, it didn’t explain the dragons they had been riding. That was slightly harder to explain, so Damian had simplified it as best he could. They used to fight and kill dragons to protect themselves, but something had happened for both the Vikings, their people, and the dragons to find common ground and become friends. This had been before Damian was born and a good three years before Rose had even met Harry and Uma.

For weeks beyond that, while they planned for more attempted prison breaks, which Uma was sure would be successful with Rose and Damian present now; Lia was weary of both the dragons and their riders. But-as those weeks went on, and she examined these dragons…they were…different than any of the Yaqal’s she had encountered before, including Mal. Mjölnir; while very grumpy and preferred certain people, was calm and kept still when his rider; Rose, was near and gave him ‘don’t you be a brat I swear to Odin’ looks that only a mother could have. Lia couldn't help but laugh as Cordelia and Damian climbed on and around him, the two giggling as he stood stone-still with a very grumpy look on his face.

And she couldn’t help but grow to be fond of Damian's dragon; Stormbreaker, the goofiest dragon she had ever seen, usually toothless with wide eyes and a silly smile on her face, bouncing around his rider and trying to catch flies that buzzed around. It was like being around a gigantic cat, K’Marah had even made a little light beam for Stormy to chase around, the dragon's eyes dilated as she tried to catch the light.

But dear heaven to the gods of the universe it scared the feathers off her wings when K’Marah asked Damian to let her ride with him one day. Lia demanded she fly alongside them just to make sure K’Marah was safe, and Damian didn’t deny her, grinning the entire time as Lia flew just behind them

She watched as K’Marah laughed as stormy went into a series of spins, loops, dives, twists, and turns that sent her stomach-turning. But-Stormbreaker was taking great care both of her passengers were safe, and once Damian showed off his flight suit, the dragon kept just under him while Lia and K’Marah watched in awe, Lia was just the slightest bit more trusting of these two dragons and their riders.

And then a week later, Lia saw exactly what these dragons were capable of, along with their riders. Lightning coursed across the sky and land, the echoing roars of beasts reverberating along the cracks of what was once Beast castle. She couldn’t even see the dragons, the high-pitched whistle of Stormbreaker was her only clue to where she was, plasma blasts soon following where she passed by, destroying towers, guard posts, guards, and sending pure terror through their hearts.

Mjölnir had easily proved his namesake, calling upon a scourge of lightning as he passed above the black clouds, destroying everything in his wake. Soon, Lia’s parents, along with every single prisoner came rushing out onto the grounds, running towards the gates as the rebellion and the dragons pushed Mal’s army back, and they had no chance. With the combined might of the dragons and the winged goddess descendants; the prison break had been a wild success, and along with all the prisoners, Ben was safely in Stormbreakers claws, asleep with a quick spell Uma had cast at him so he wouldn't awake until she was sure his love spell was gone.

Mal hadn't even tried to counterattack, the threat of Rose Tougard-Hook much too high for her to risk a crippling defeat. With how close she came to death only weeks before, this was probably Mal’s smartest move since deciding not to call Cordelia shrimpy jr anymore when Rose was around.

It would take a lot more planning to take Mal and her mother down, to free the rest of Auradon, but they had Mal’s threat away, she had no one to hover in front of them, no one to taunt them with, no prize to show off.

The dragons had shown the false ones what it meant to be a true dragon. And soon; the rebellion would show them exactly what was coming to them.

And with an army of dragon riders on the way, Mal and Maleficent didn’t stand a chance.
