Chapter 2
[Outcast island is in view, at night]
Everyone glared at the screen.
"Outcasts . . . " Stoick growled.
Outcast: Meal time, maggots!
[He starts to throw bread in the bars of the cage. He gives a special piece to Dagur.]
Prisoner: But that's not bread! Why does he always get special treatment? Oh Mr. Big-shot. Mr. Berserker Chief.
"What's Dagur doing in there?" Astrid wondered out loud.
"Who cares?" Fishlegs said. "Thank the gods!"
"Did he say - Berserker chief? What happened to Oswald?" Gobber asked
Spitelout grunted. "I suppose he died."
"Dagur can't be a very good chief if he's been caught. By Outcasts, of all people." Stoick observed.
"He's young, you can't deny." a random Viking yelled.
Another, a female, said, "What happened for him to get in anyway?"
Dagur: Oh hey you want some? Come here, I'll give you some.
[He reaches out. When the Outcast reaches out, Dagur grabs Outcast prisoner's arm through the bars]
Dagur: I've been meaning to tell you something for the last three years; Your. Voice. Is. Really. Annoying.
[Dagur twists his arm and knocks out the Outcast. He opens the napkin he's been given which is hiding the key to his cell]
Dagur: Gosh that feels good.
[Once the cage is open, Dagur starts attacking the guards]
Outcast: He's escaped! Dagur's got out! Sound the al-
[Dagur knocks him out. More Outcasts start showing up]
"That can't be good."
Dagur Oh goodie! A challenge!
[Yells]
Berserkers: Yah! Get 'em Dagur!
[cheering]
[As more Outcasts come, Dagur begins fighting all of them. Once they are all knocked out, he approaches the one guarding the exit; the same one who gave him the key]
Outcast: No. No, Dagur don't! I'm the one that gave you the key.
Dagur: Which makes you a traitor.
[knocks him out]
Dagur: I hate traitors.
[opens the door]
Dagur: It's a new day, Hiccup. Hope you're well rested.
"Hiccup? What does he want with me?" Hiccup said, worried. But he, unfortunately, had an idea. If he found out about Toothless . . .
[Scene cuts to Hiccup and Toothless flying through the air]
Gobber let out a low whistle. "What happened to you, laddie?"
Hiccup smiled. "Looks like it's all of my raw Vikingness, isn't it?"
"Vikingness is determined by how you can wield a weapon, not by looks." Astrid said, trying to look indifferent, but was impressed nonetheless.
Stoick, however, couldn't care less about his son's looks. "HAS ANYONE ELSE NOTICED MY SON IS RIDING A NIGHT FURY?!"
Vikings blushed and coughed into their fists. No, they hadn't.
Stoick glared at his son. "What?" Hiccup said innocently. "This is the future! I don't know . . ." he trailed off. If he tried to lie, everyone would know. He was a horrible liar.
Hiccup: Okay, Bud. Let's try the new move.
[Toothless dives down and shoots upwards]
Hiccup: Woohoo! Yeah, baby! That's it, Toothless. Push it, you've got it! Climb higher!
No one wanted to say it, but they were impressed at the aerial acrobatics the duo were performing. Never mind it was a Night Fury, they could really fly!
Finally, Gobber voiced what they all were thinking. "You're good at this, lad!"
"Thanks, Gobber." Hiccup said, eyes still fixed on the screen.
"It's the only thing you'll ever be good at." Snotlout said.
[Laughs. Unhooks from saddle and falls off]
Everyone gasped. Sure, the boy was Useless, but no one wanted to see him die.
Hiccup: What the... Oh no, not again! Uh hey, Toothless!
"Again?"
[Toothless dives down, parallel to Hiccup]
Hiccup: Hey. So, just plummet, or, uh any ideas?
The teens (minus Hiccup and Fishlegs) burst out laughing.
"The way . . . you look . . . and what you say!" Ruff said between giggles.
Fishlegs was white. "You guys, he could die!"
"I look pretty calm and used to this." Hiccup pointed out.
[flips body and lands on Toothless]
Cue sighs of relief.
Hiccup: I seriously have to get my own pair of wings.
Toothless: [grumbles]
Hiccup: Oh, quiet, you. Don't even start.
[Flies to Berk]
Hiccup: This is Berk
[Toothless soars over village as villagers wave]
Hiccup: This is Berk, too
[Toohtless flies over Hangar under construction]
Hiccup: And so is this!
[Toothless flies over dragon feeder]
Hiccup: And this also.
"No, that's not Berk." Stoick said. "What happened?"
[Toothless glides over windmills]
Hiccup: Yeah, it's been three whole years since the war with the Berserkers. And Berk has changed a lot.
Snotlout snorted. "You think?"
"War with the Berserkers? I thought we had a peace treaty!" Spitelout cried.
"But, remember, Dagur is the new chief, apparently." Stoick reminded him. "Dagur probably cancelled the treaty."
[Tootless flies over Snotlout]
Hiccup: But then again, so have we. Snotlout works at the armoury now. Gobber gave him the title of "official weapons tester."
[Snotlout gets into a catapult and gets launched away]
[laughs]
Snotlout: It works!
"I look awesome!" Snotlout cheered.
Hiccup: The twins, to absolutely no one's surprise, have decided to dedicate their lives to Loki.
"Yeah!" the Twins said together and high fived.
Most of the villagers were running horrible scenarios over in their heads of what could happen. Nothing good.
[The twins rush below Snotlout with a wagon of weapons]
Snotlout: Uh, Hookfang! Hookfang!
"Don't look so awesome anymore, huh, Snotlout?" Ruffnut smirked.
"Who's 'Hookfang'?" Snotlout asked no one in particular.
[gets caught by Hookfang]
"Oh. I have an awesome dragon, see?" Snotlout reverted to his fallback when he was confused: Brag about something. He never thought he would be bragging about a pet dragon.
Hiccup: The God of Pranks. Lucky us.
Snotlout: You just have to cut it that close, don't you? Hookfang! Ugh! There will be repercussions for this! Repercussions!
Twins: [laugh] Yes! [High five each other]
The Twins did the same in real time.
Hiccup: And then there's Fishlegs, who has really found his calling, teaching the children of Berk the history of dragons.
"Yes!" Fishlegs cheered quietly, so no one but his neighbor - Hiccup - could hear. Hiccup gave him a small smile.
[Toothless flies over Fishlegs with Meatlug and a bunch of kids on her]
"Is . . . is that my dragon?" Fishlegs wondered aloud. "What's her name?"
Fishlegs: And if you look closely at the walls of the Great Hall, you'll still see puncture marks where the Speed Stingers attacked. Interesting fact about these dragons...
"When'd that happen?"
[turns towards the steps of the Great Hall and sees Stoick and Gobber]
Fishlegs: Oh! Oh, look, kids! We're in luck. Here come two of Berk's most famous heroes.
Stoick: Ho ho! Heroes? I've got some Chiefing to do, but I guess I could spare a moment...
Fishlegs: Hiccup and the amazing Toothless!
"Hero?" Hiccup said playfully. "Me? Why, thank you Fishlegs." With a more serious tone, he said, "But seriously. What happened? Why am I a hero? And why are we riding dragons?"
[Toothless soars over them]
[The kids cheer]
Stoick: ...eh, to introduce my son and his Night Fury! [laughs] Hooray.
Stoick blushed and Gobber laughed.
[Toothless flies over sea, when Stormfly and Astrid fly towards them]
Astrid studied the dragon she was riding. She approved. Beautiful, but deadly, like her.
Hiccup: Hey, there you are.
Astrid: Hiccup, I've been chasing you since the armory.
"Stealthy . . . You'll never see her coming 'till you're dead!" Tuff said. His Twin laughed, and Astrid smiled mischievously, which shut both twins up pretty quickly. The rest of the teens gulped.
Hiccup: Well, I thought we'd try out the far North today.
"For what?"
Astrid: Uh, can we talk about something first?
Hiccup: Yeah, sure, if you can catch me.
[Scene cuts to Hiccup's view through his spy glass]
Hiccup: I'm just going to say it, I have a really good feeling about today, Astrid.
Astrid: You say that every time we go searching for new dragons. Hiccup, can we have a second? I wanted to talk to you about...
[Hiccups tosses her spyglass]
Hiccup: Whoa, look, look, look, look! Did you see that? There's definitely some movement up ahead. Long neck... Large head... Behind that rock formation.
Astrid: Yeah, anyway, I wanted to tell you.
[Toothless and Hiccup zooms ahead] [Astrid sighs and rolls eyes]
Hiccup: This is it, Toothless! A new species of dragon, bud!
[stops in front of rock formation and sees the twins and their dragon]
"Cool! Our dragon!" both Twins said together.
Everyone else groaned. Two heads was bad enough, but four?
Twins: Loki'd!
Tuffnut: You totally thought "Barch" was was a new dragon!
Hiccup: Oh, come on! Did not! Let's go, bud.
"You did! You totally did!" Tuff laughed.
Tuffnut: Wow, who yakked in his mutton?
[Scene cuts to Hiccup and Toothless sitting on a sea stack]
Astrid: Hiccup, those guys are muttonheads. But you have to admit, we've visited every island, every sea stack and every rock in the archipelago, twice! And we haven't spotted a new dragon in a long time.
Hiccup: This can't be all there is! There has to be something more out there!
"What if there isn't?" Astrid asked Hiccup, who was staring intensly at the screen, his expression a mix of horror and fascination. "Hiccup? What happened?"
"MY LEG!" Hiccup shouted. "WHAT HAPPENED TO MY LEG?"
Everyone's eyes shot to the screen. It was true. Hiccup was missing a leg - the left one, to be exact.
"Oh, lad . . . " Gobber said sadly. "Youngest amputee . . . " As a double amputee, Gobber knew that missing one - or two - of your limbs wasn't a good thing. It was inconvenient, hard, and sometimes painful.
Hiccup shook his head. "At least I look used to it, right? And I could tinker with it . . . " he trailed off, and everyone could practically see the gears in his head turning.
Astrid: What if there isn't, Hiccup? What if we're done? What if the search is over?
Hiccup: It can't be.
Astrid: [sighs] Well, it's over for me. I've been trying to tell you. Stormfly and I... We're joining the Berk Guard.
"Good for you, Astrid!" Stoick said proudly.
Astrid smiled. She had always wanted to join the Berk guard.
Hiccup: Oh. That's great... I'm happy for you guys... [sulks]
"You don't look too happy."
Astrid: Look, maybe you should give some thought to what's next for you and Toothless.
[mounts onto Stormfly and flies away]
[Scene cuts to Hiccup and Toothless standing in the Academy at night]
[Hiccup closes Astrid's door]
Hiccup: I guess it's just you and me for now, bud.
[leaves Academy with Toothless]
[scene cuts to Mulch and Bucket's boat in the ocean]
[struggles with fishing net]
Bucket: I can't get it!
[pants]
Mulch: What's the problem, Bucket?
Bucket: I'm not sure, Mulch! I can't raise the net! Something's pulling that end down!
Both: SEA MONSTER!
Snotlout and the Twins laughed. "The looks on your faces!"
[net pulled into ocean]
[sea water shoots at them]
[The twins emerge from under the water, waving their hands]
Twins: Loki'd! [they laugh]
The Twins are still laughing.
Bucket: Oh, you!
[realizes Trader Johann is sitting behind Tuffnut]
Bucket: Johann?
Trader Johann: Help me!
Astrid turned to the Twins, furious, at the same time as Stoick did.
"YOU KIDNAPPED JOHANN?" they yelled at the same time. They looked up and smiled.
The Twins inched away from them both. Astrid alone? Scary. Stoick? Terrifying. But both?
Tuffnut: Oh man, you should see the looks on your faces. Priceless!
Twins: Full Loki'd!
Tuffnut: Bet you've never saw a full Loki coming, am I right, Johann? Johann?
[Scene cuts to the Haddock house, when Hiccup enters]
Stoick: Hiccup! What are you doing home so early?
Hiccup: Oh, I just... wanted to spend some time with my dear old dad. Yeah, you know, we never get to talk anymore. So…
"You are a horrible liar." Tuff laughed.
Stoick: Alright. What is it?
"See? Even Stoick knows it!"
Hiccup: What's what?
Stoick: What is it?
Hiccup: Can't a son spend some quality time with his family?
Stoick: Not this one. Not usually, at least. So, let's hear it.
"No quality time?" Snotlout gasped. "Me and my dad spend loads of time together!"
"Well, maybe I'm just too busy exploring." Hiccup glared.
Hiccup: [sighs] All right. Did you know Astrid just joined the Berk Guard?
Stoick: I heard that. Good for her.
Hiccup: And the other riders have got their different things going on?
Stoick: What are you saying, son?
Hiccup: I'm saying, I don't know. Maybe it's time for me...
[door opens with the twins supporting Trader Johann]
Stoick: Johann! What happened to you?
Trader Johann: [moans] Ooh... Dagur!
Hiccup: What about Dagur?
Trader Johann: He's out! He's more Berserk than ever! And from the way he was talking, Hiccup: You're number one on his revenge list!
[passes out]
"Oh, that's . . . nice. I am dead." Hiccup sighed.
"Not necessarily. You do have a Night Fury." Fishlegs pointed out.
[Scene cuts to the Academy]
Hiccup: All we got from Johann before he passed out was this, Dagur escaped from Outcast Island by commandeering his ships.
[points to map]
Hiccup: He threw Johann overboard about here.
"Since when do you teach us?" Snotlout sneered.
"Well, alot has changed. We are riding dragons, so me teaching can't be that stunning." Hiccup said.
Snotlout: Oh, so what you're saying is Dagur could be anywhere by now.
Hiccup: Well, technically, yes.
Snotlout: Oh, great. Great, great, great. So So that just leaves... I don't know, let me think about this... the entire ocean to search! No, thank you!
Trader Johann: Master Hiccup.
Hiccup: Johann, you're awake.
Trader Johann: And feeling much better, thank you for asking.
"I didn't ask."
Johann: More importantly, I have more than a strong suspicion of where our nefarious foe may be heading.
Hiccup: Outside the Archipelago?
Trader Johann: No! Just inside the fog bank on our outer group of islands.
Hiccup: We've never been out that far.
"That's why you haven't found any new dragons, me!"
"That sounds really weird." Astrid told Hiccup. She was starting to warm up to Hiccup, and she knew everyone else was too. She also knew everyone was thinking that maybe Hiccup wasn't Useless.
Trader Johann: When Dagur commandeered my precious ship, he also came into possession of a very important map... one that leads to a graveyard of ships hidden in that fog bank.
Snotlout: Wow! That's the first place I'd go.
Trader Johann: If I may be allowed to finish?
Snotlout: Johann, last time we allowed you to finish, we ended up on Breakneck Bog. So, no... No finishing.
"Breakneck Bog? My grandfather told me it was haunted by pirates!" Astrid said.
"Pirates? It was a fog monster. But yours is way better, babe!" Snotlout said.
"Call me babe again, and that will be the last thing you will ever say."
Hiccup: Enough! What's so special about the graveyard and why would he go there?
Trader Johann: Well, you see...
Hiccup: The short version, please.
"Puh-lease! That isn't possible, for Johann." Tuff said.
Trader Johann: It's where I store all my treasures and wares.
"Or not. Wow, concise and to the point."
"Who knew he had it in him?" Ruffnut finished for Tuff.
Tuffnut: Wow, concise, to the point. Who knew he had it in him?
Tuff and Ruff blinked.
Johann: Which reminds me of the first time I was labeled as "concise"! He was a young man, very ugly, I actually...
Hiccup: Johann.
Trader Johann: Yes?
Hiccup: Focus. Is there anything else?
Trader Johann: As a matter of fact, there is one ship you must avoid at all cost. It's called... The Reaper. Riddled with booby traps from stem to stern. Barely made it out with my life the only time I dared venture aboard. Oh, wow!
Hiccup: Okay, Toothless, let's go. Unless, of course, any of you can make time out of your busy schedules to capture a dangerous maniac?
[scene cuts to the gang flying in the air]
Hiccup: This is pretty great, huh, bud? Seems like forever since we all flew as a group. Let's see how rusty they are. V Formation!
"'Since we've all flown as a group'? When did that happen?" Hiccup said.
[dragons form a 'V' shape in the air]
Hiccup: Not bad. Diamond Formation!
[dragons form a diamond in the air]
"Cool! You guys listen to me! I'm starting to like this future." Hiccup exclaimed.
Tuffnut: How rusty does this guy think we are?
Fishlegs: [squished between Barf and Belch and Meatlug] Uh... guys? A little tight on the diamond, are we?
Hiccup: [chuckles] Just like old times.
"Old times?" Fishlegs questioned, eyebrow raised.
Snotlout: Five thousand pounds of flaming muscle coming through!
Hiccup: Ever classic.
[scene cuts to the Ship Graveyard at night]
"OOOO, spooky! Anyone think there are ghosts? They'll take us down, and torture us by tickling us for eternity!" Tuff cried.
"Nieflheim?" Ruffnut gasped.
Hiccup: I knew it! I knew there was more!
Astrid: Some of these ships, I've never seen anything like them before.
Hiccup: Okay, everybody fan out! If anyone sees any signs of Dagur, sound the signal.
[with Stormfly and Astrid]
Astrid: It's alright Stormfly. Nothing to worry about.
[with Meatlug and Fishlegs]
Fishlegs: Don't be nervous, girl. We don't want you to... [Meatlug spews] do that...
[eels swim up from under the water]
[with Hookfang and Snotlout]
Snotlout: Haha, Hookfang! These guys are awful sailors!
"'Cause you'd do better?"
"Yeah, I could!"
[crashes into mast]
Snotlout: Oof! A little help here...Hookfang! Hey! I saw that look! What did we talk about?
[with Hiccup and Toothless]
Hiccup: That's gotta be The Reaper.
[The gang gathers]
Hiccup: No sign of Dagur.
Astrid: Looks like we've got here first. What's the plan?
Hiccup: We wait.
"I have to admit - that was really bad thinking on my part. We can't just wait there forever."
Fishlegs: Wait a minute. For how long? This fog really gives Meatlug the willies.
"It would give anyone the willies." Gobber agreed.
Astrid: He has a point. We can't wait here forever.
"I just said that!"
Hiccup: We can't just leave Johann's treasure here either. Dagur will steal them!
Astrid: And use the profit to build a new armada.
Ruffnut: Not if we steal them first!
Tuffnut: That is the dumbest idea I've ever heard! I hereby disown you.
Hiccup: Actually, you known what? I actually like it!
Tuffnut: Welcome back to the family.
Tuffnut glared at everyone who laughed. Which was, everyone.
Hiccup: Here's the plan. We search the ship, gather Johann's treasure and take it back to Berk. But keep your eyes open for Dagur. He could show up anytime...
[loud hissing]
Astrid: What is that?
Tuffnut: Has Dagur's voice changed?
Hicup: Eels! Everybody get to your dragons before they get spooked and take off!
"What?" Spitelout said.
"Dragons are afraid of eels, by what my son just said."
Fishlegs: Ohhhh... Hold me, Meatlug!
[All dragons except for Toothless take off]
Snotlout: Hookfang!
Astrid: Stormfly!
Snotlout: [giant eel emerges] AHHHHHH!
Hiccup: Calm down, bud! It's only a couple of eels! Really big, screaming mean eels...
[Eels start sinking the ship]
Tuffnut: AHHHH!
Fishlegs: The eels are pulling the ship down!
Snotlout: Fishlegs! Grab my foot! [Fishlegs grabs his foot] Oh, you ate a full breakfast! [entire gang grabs each other's feet] You ate everybody's breakfast!
"I only eat my breakfasts, thank you very much."
"Breakfasts? As in, plural?"
Tuffnut: We're gonna live!
Astrid: [slips] Hold it- AHHHH!
Hiccup: Astrid! No!
Tuffnut: Most of us are gonna live!
Astrid: HICCUP!
"OOOO, interesting choice of name! Why call on Hiccup? Calling on your man?" Gobber teased. with a huge smile on his face.
Astrid and Hiccup blushed.
[She lands in the water and the giant eels surround her. She draws her axe, then Hiccup and Toothless dive into the water and save her.]
Astrid: Thanks, Hiccup!
Snotlout: Pardon me. Does anyone else think that Johann could have warned us about... I don't know... THE GIANT SCREAMING EELS?!
Hiccup: Snotlout, would you relax? The dragons will be back. In the meantime, we stick with the plan. We find Johann's treasure. Quietly.
Snotlout: [stomps heavily]
[Hiccup sighs]
Astrid: Why are you staring at that ship?
Hiccup: Because I'm thinking of checking it out.
Astrid: The Reaper? The ship Johann warned us about?
Hiccup: Exactly. A ship covered with booby traps from stem to stern. I'm thinking, what is on there they don't want people to find?
[Hiccup and Toothless fly to The Reaper alone]
Hiccup: This boat is definitely not from the archipelago. These carvings, the design on the sail... I've never seen anything like this. And this metal...
[On board Toothless growls and glances into a cage.]
Hiccup: Come on, bud, it's just an empty cage.
Both: [bird flies out the cage] Ah!
Hiccup: Okay, now... now it's an empty cage.
[scene cuts to the ship the rest of the gang is on]
"Wow," Snotlout breathed when he saw all the treasure the Twins had found. "I call dibs for the Jorgensens!" Spitelout puffed out his chest.
"Actually, since we found it, they're ours." Ruff said. Spitelout deflated his chest when Stoick nodded.
Tuffnut: Jewels, jewels! You know what we're gonna do? We're bringing them back for the family. Mom will be so happy.
"I'm glad you thought of me."
Tuff: Wait, but how are we going to carry all these back to Berk?
[Ruffnut reveals jewels in her mouth]
Everyone in the room sighed, except for Tuff, and Ruff.
Tuffnut: [gasps] Great idea, sis! I can't believe I didn't think about that. Here, I may do it too. I'm also gonna put jewels in your mouth. [shoves jewels into Ruffnut's mouth] Yeah! I gotta keep mine empty so I can talk.
"Oh no! Put jewels in your mouth!" Snotlout said dramatically. "Spare us!"
Ruffnut: Ah! [muffled] Keep comin'. Keep 'em coming. Ah! Ooh!
Fishlegs: Whoo! Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah! Fishlegs! [giggles] Maps, old books, charts! Oh ho ho ho! There's no greater treasure than knowledge.
[Rolls around in books and paper]
"That's something you only see once, and only want to see once."
Snotlout: I'm gonna be rich! I'm gonna be rich! Rich, rich, rich, rich, rich! [spies an ornate chest] Hmm, well, hello, Mr. Ornate Box. What treasures do you hold?
"I'm betting more jewels. Or gold!" Spitelout said.
Sven said, "I'm betting it's not!"
"You're on."
Snotlout: [laughs] Rich! Ho! Rich! [opens box] Hair! Ew! Who keeps hair in a box?
Spitelout handed his due to Sven, albeit grouchily.
Snotlout: There's got to be more! More hair? Ech! Man, what a rip-off.
[sees a picture of royalty and realizes it is hair of deceased royalties]
"And Johann never told us! Those are historical artifacts!" a viking yelled. Everyone murmured their assent.
Snotlout: Or is it?
[Styles hair differently each time.]
Snotlout: I'm Stoick the Vast!
"I don't look or sound like that, lad!"
Snotlout: Hiccup, you're such a disappointment! Why can't you be more like Snotlout? Eh, I'm Ruffnut... or am I Tuffnut? Who can tell? [laughs] I'm... Oh, actually, this is kind of nice.
"No, it's not," Astrid said.
Hiccup: Come on, bud. Don't you want to see what's down below?
[Toothless growls]
"Smart dragon,"
Hiccup: All right, fine. Guess I'm going alone.
[rope latches onto Hiccup's foot and almost drags him off the ship]
HIccup: Ah! Whoa! Whoa!
[Toothless shoots a plasma blast, which saves him]
Hiccup: Okay. Nobody goes to this much trouble unless there's something on this boat that they don't want found.
[enters ship]
Hiccup: Watch your step, bud.
[bear trap clamps onto Hiccup's leg]
Everyone gasped and winced in sympathy.
Hiccup: Oh, Toothless. One of the benefits of a metal leg, I suppose.
[Pries open the trap]
Hiccup: Okay, let's just take this nice and...
Toothless: [whines, stares into a cage]
Hiccup: Dragon bones. I'm sorry you had to see this, bud. Whoever commanded this ship was certainly no friend of dragons.
"Ya think?"
Hiccup: Let's get out of here.
[steps onto a plank, arrows shoot out from walls]
Hiccup: All right, come on, Toothless! Let's go! Commander's quarters. Stay close, bud. Okay, so here's the plan...
[Toothless blows up the door]
Hiccup: I like yours better.
[Toothless 'laughes']
"Was that . . . laughing?"
[Spots the Dragon Eye]
Hiccup: What is this thing?
[approaches Dragon Eye held by a skeleton]
"Okay, that is seriously creepy," Astrid shivered.
"It gives me the willies," Gobber said.
Hiccup: Whatever it is, if it's on this ship, it's no good for dragons. Which means we're not leaving it here for Dagur.
[lifts up skeletal hand]
"How are you touching that?" Fishlegs squeeked.
"I don't seem to like it too much."
Hiccup: Eww... Huh. Well, that wasn't too...
[axe falls down]
Hiccup: GIANT AXE! Toothless, run!
[spikes jut out from the floor]
Hiccup: Watch it, Toothless!
[arrows fly towards them]
"How did the people that owned this ship get around?"
Hiccup: Whoa!
[runs out ship, closes the hatch and sees Dagur]
Hiccup: Toothless, hold.
Dagur: Hiccup! Did you miss me? 'Cause I sure missed you. Every day for three years, I thought about you.
"I didn't really think about this last time . . . but what happened to Dagur?" Snotlout said
[Steps aside to reveal the Dragon Riders locked in the cage behind him]
"He would never catch me. Snotman!"
"Well, apparently he did. What I can't see is how he got me . . . " Astrid trailed off.
Hiccup: Astrid!
"Same with you! Calling your gal?" Gobber teased. Hiccup and Astrid blushed again.
"I am offended. You didn't call me!" Snotlout said.
"Or me!" Tuff said. Ruff nodded, a mock disappointed look on her face.
Dagur: And you too Mr. Night Fury.
Astrid: Sorry, Hiccup. He got the drop on us while we were searching...
Dagur: Uh, quiet! Can't you see my brother and I are having a moment?
"Brother?" Hiccup said.
"Brother?" Stoick echoed.
Hiccup: I'm not your brother and we are definitely not having a moment.
"Good," Hiccup sighed. "No way I am brothers with that deranged maniac."
Dagur: Oh, well, I was. Look at you, all growed up! And quite the ladies' man, I'd wager. Hmm? Hmm?
"Hmmm?" Gobber repeated, as if expecting an answer. As Astrid stopped blushing, Hiccup's cheeks were tinged red again.
Hiccup: Dagur, what do you want?
Snotlout: Duh, [flips his new-found royal hair] he wants the jewels.
"Son, that looks horrible on you." Spitelout told him.
Tuffnut: He's not getting my family's jewels. No way! And I'll protect them at all cost! Also, what is with that hair?
"Couldn't have said it better myself," Ruff said.
Snotlout: Ha! It's royal hair, I'll have you know.
Dagur: Haven't gotten rid of the Greek Chorus, I see. Anyway, yes, I'll take the jewels. His too.
"HER! I'm a GIRL!"
Ruffnut: [Crew member hits her] Watch it, pal!
Crew member: [laughs]
[Ruffnut spits a jewel into the crew member's mouth]
Crew member: Oh! [gagging]
Dagur: Oops, thought that was the guy. Never can tell with those two. And I'll also take whatever it is you're hiding behind your back. Come on, hand it over like a good boy. Brothers share, you know.
"NOT your brother!"
[hands over Dragon Eye]
"Why'd you give him that?" Astrid asked.
"Well, he could've hurt you guys? Ever think of that?" Hiccup huffed.
This gave everyone in the room something new to think about. Hiccup was being selfless, a different concept to them.
Hiccup: You know you're not going to get very far with that thing, right?
Dagur: Oh, boy, here we go. Must we always do the same dance, Hiccup, you and I? Not that you're not a fabulous dancer.
Snotlout turned to him. "Are you?"
"I dunno."
"We'll find out soon enough," Gobber looked mischievously at Astrid, then back at Hiccup. They realized it at the same time.
"No!" they both exclaimed. Gobber chuckled.
[Toothless growls]
Hiccup: Easy, bud, not yet.
Dagur: That's right, Mr. Night Fury. Today is not the day, but it's coming! And soon. Now, if you'll excuse me. I've got people to see, an army to build, revenge to plot. Ooh, so much to do and so little time! Isn't this exciting, Hiccup? You... You must have been so bored over the last three years.
Tuffnut: Yeah, he's got a point about that. Not enough explosions.
"Exactly!" both Twins said together.
Dagur: Alas, my time here has come to an end. Farewell for now, brother. Until we meet again on the field of battle.

[Hiccup tries to open the cage]
Astrid: Forget about us! Go after him!
Snotlout: What are you waiting for?!
Hiccup: Are you guys sure you'll be okay?
Astrid: We're fine! Go!
Dagur's crew member: Here they come, sir, just like you said.
Dagur: Still predictable, aren't you, brother?
"I'm not that predictable!" Hiccup cried indignantly.
Snotlout coughed into his fist, but it sounded remarkably like 'yesyouare'
[crew members pushing a catapult]
Crew Member: Fire!
[crew fires catapult]
Hiccup: You missed, brother!
"Oh, so now I call him brother too?"
Dagur: Hiccup, you should know by now, I never miss.
Hiccup: [realizes he hit the ship and the gang will sink with it] Oh, NO!
Gang: Oh! Hiccup! Get us out of here!
"I thought you said you'd be okay!"
"We didn't know Dagur was going to shoot at us!" Snotlout almost yelled.
Dagur: What's it going to be, Hiccup? Catch me, save your friends? Ooh, tough one! Glad I'm not in your shoe.[chuckles]
"Oh, the leg thing. That's appropriate." Hiccup sighed. Gobber shot him one of his rare (And not very effective) sympathetic glances.
"So . . . " Snotlout prompted.
"I think that's it," Fishlegs said tentatively.
"What?" Astrid said. "So we don't get to know what happens next?"
"You do," said Voice. "In the next episode."
"Episode? I thought it was a video." Stoick said.
"It's both." Voice advised. "So, without further ado . . . "
