Astrid gasped for air as she came up from underwater. That was the 3rd wave that she had to dive under in the past 5 minutes. Then she saw Tuffnut slumped over the back of Billy bob.
"Tuffnut!" She shouted, "are you OK!" Then a long steel tentacle wrapped around her body and dragged her beneath the waves.
Hiccup felt a strange numbness in the back of his skull. Either from Toothless` fire blast knocking him and Snotlout off thier feet , or the tiny voice in the back of his skull telling him something was wrong. As they climbed through the hole in wall, they noticed that something was chained to the floor, a very peculiar Dragon. Although the dragon's tail, wings and the back of its head had lime green feathers with blue tips. Its scales were silver, and its eyes were blue. The dragon had a very cat like body; it's had two curved ram horns on the sides of its head. The dragon hissed and shot purple fire as the group got closer to it. Toothless roared and put himself between the imprisoned dragon and his rider.
"It`s ok, bud." Hiccup said trying to calm his dragon down. "Why don't you break those locks, and we`ll see if her mood improves."
Hiccup could tell this dragon was a girl because all girl dragons are slightly smaller and leaner then boy dragons.
Toothless used his teeth to rip the chains apart. Then the dragon was free. She happily sprinted in circles, when she realizied this.
We`ll call you… Zoey, Hiccup decided.
The dragon jumped into the air and did a loop.
"I guess you like that name." Snotlout said with a laugh.
Zoey then looked at Toothless and began circling him. Toothless` eyes got bigger; he nervously shifted from foot to foot. Then crackle of lightning hit the three dragons in the room, knocking them unconscious.
"NO!" Hiccup shouted rushing towards his dragon.
Then a flash of light hit him, and he fell to the floor feeling like he`d been hit by Gronckle`s tail. Then he blacked out, as he was dragged into the shadows. Snotlout drew his mace as a pack of gold and silver robotic wolves surrounded him.
"Stay back." he warned.
The wolves had glowing green eyes, silver skin with occasional patches of gold. The wolf opened its mouth as it howled revealing hundreds of tiny spinning saw blades for teeth. The claws on its feet were actually knife blades. Then one of the jumped at Snotlout ready to devour him. Snotlout smacked its head clean off with one swing. Oil spilled all over the floor. Then another jumped onto his back from behind and began biting into his shoulder. Snotlout yelled out in pain as the wolves overwhelmed him. Then Zoey sprang into action, having recovered from the electrical attack. She began fighting the wolves. She picked one up with her claws and ripped in half. She set several more on fire, before crushing the rest with her tail. Toothless and Firefang groaned and got up. Then Toothless snarled as he realized that Hiccup had been captured by the Atlantians. Then Firefang looked at Snotlout who was unconscious on the floor. Toothless knew that they had to get him to safety before they went after Hiccup.
Stoick the Vast paced back and forth in his home. It had been almost 8 hours since his son and Snotlout had left for the ruins. It had also been three hours since Astrid and Gobber had went to go find Ruffnut and Tuffnut. Ruffnut and Thorn had returned. But the other had not. He was getting nervous. The typhoon had left the area over 15 minutes ago. Then Gobber scrambled into the room.
"Stoick! It's terrible, it dragged them under." "I barely got away but still!" He shouted.
"Gobber calm down. What happened?" Stoick asked.
"Some kind of giant, squid dragged Astrid, Tuffnut and Billy Bob under water." Gobber shouted.
"Curse those Atlantians, and their automatons." Stoick grumbled. "We`d better tell their parents."
The two walked outside and passed Stoick`s dragon, a Timberjack named Paul. It had a body similar to a Monstrous Nightmare, but it was several times larger, and had razor sharp steel tipped wings, and the horns of an Ox. Then Toothless, Firefang, and another dragon landed in front of the duo, catching them of guard.
"Where`s Hiccup?" Stoick asked.
Toothless looked down sadly at the ground.
"What would they want with a bunch of kids?" Gobber asked.
"They`re going to use them to manipulate us, force us to surrender before the war even starts." Stoick explained. Then he looked at Toothless.
"I need you to help me once again." He told the dragon.
Hiccup awoke on a cold marble floor, next to Tuffnut and Astrid. Numerous Atlantian Automatons had surrounded them, in the form of Bears, Tigers, serpents and Giant spiders.
"Welcome, my friends to Atlantis!" A teenage boy said from above them. He had thick blonde hair, green eyes and a devilish grin on his face. Almost as if he knew a very funny inside joke about the three of them.
"Hi." Astrid said quickly. Almost too quickly, Hiccup narrowed his eyes.
"Why did you bring us down here?" He asked.
"Who are you anyway?" Tuffnut snarled.
"Where are my manners?" The boy murmured. "My name is Triton. I am prince of Atlantis. Take a look around, I trust you`ll find our city nothing less than amazing."
The trio took a look around, Skyscrapers made of coral and metal, and numerous other structures rose off the ocean floor. Hundreds of people swam through the water, along with thousands of sea creatures.
"It is pretty nice here." Astrid murmured.
"You still haven't answered my question" Hiccup grumbled. "What do you want with us?"
"We wish to negotiate with you." Triton said. "Our first kind gesture of peace was granting you the ability to breath underwater."
"How`d you guys do that?" Tuffnut asked.
"We fed you seaweed nectar, it grants the ability of being able to breathe underwater once it's been digested."Triton replied.
"How long does it last?" Astrid asked.
"Around 5 hours." Triton mumbled.
"Cool!" Tuffnut shouted.
"Sorry, but we should be going." Hiccup said walking towards the bronze door behind him.
"No." Triton pleaded, "Stay a bit longer we have lovely rooms for our guests to sleep in."
"Hiccup can we stay just a bit longer?" Astrid asked.
"Astrid, these guys sent a giant bat to attack your house." Hiccup whispered.
"If they wanted us gone they would`ve killed us already." Astrid protested.
"True." Tuffnut said.
"Alright one hour." Hiccup said with a sigh.
"I`m glad you`ve seen sense, maybe we can negotiate a cease fire while you're here." Triton said to Hiccup.
"Captain, take our guests to their rooms until dinner is ready." Triton ordered.
"Men," the one of guards said, "take our hostages to their cells."
Hiccup drew is two long swords. "I knew it!" He yelled.
Astrid took out her axe and shield. Tuffnut took his sword staff of his back. Triton laughed and took out a weapon that looked like a giant fork.
"It doesn't matter, its impossible for three Vikings to escape from Atlantis, at least not before they run out of dragons banished us down here and now it's time for them to suffer." Triton said shooting Hiccup with a shock of electric from his fork.
"NO!" Astrid shouted.
"We will have or revenge!" Triton shouted, "and you will be the first to die in this new war."
