Hiccup, Astrid, Ragnar and Snotlout were riding their dragons north looking for Bucket and Mulch.
"We're getting pretty far north." Astrid said.
"Bucket and Mulch are two days overdue." Hiccup reminded. "We have to keep searching."
"Yeah, but if we don't find them some we'll have to turn back." Ragnar said looking around like he was excepting something to happen.
"What's the matter?" Hiccup asked.
"I just I don't like going so far north it makes me uneasy." Ragnar explained.
"You don't really think Bucket and Mulch are up here, go you?" Astrid asked rubbing her arms to keep herself warm.
"You can't take the cold, huh, Astrid?" Snotlout said smugly.
"No, I just don't have a heated seat like you do." Astrid pointed out.
"That's right. You don't." Snotlout said smirking. He then clicked his fingers and Hookfang ignited enough to keep him warm. "Ah, toasty."
Hiccup looked down and saw Bucket and Mulch's ship next an iceberg, being attacked by Berserker ship.
"Looks like they're in trouble." Hiccup said. "Come on, bud."
They then dived down towards the two ships.
Meanwhile Bucket and Mulch ship was getting boarded by the Berserkers.
"Berserkers, commandeer this vessel for Dagur the Deranged." The Berserker captain ordered.
Two Berserkers lifted a plank and dropped between the two ships, so they could board it.
A Berserker ran across it and charged at Mulch, who pulled out an eel for defence.
"Slimy, stinking eel, meet slimy, stinky marauder" Mulch said as we slapped the Berserker, making him fall into the sea.
Two Berserkers charged at Bucket, but he just flipped them over his shoulder and into the sea. A Berserker then slammed his mace onto Bucket's bucket, but it didn't do a thing. Bucket glared at the Berserker, who then decided to jump overboard.
Mulch was jumping up and down on a Berserker's chest. Bucket then ran up and sat down on the Berserker's face suffocating him.
They turned around and saw the remaining Berserkers pointing crossbows at them.
The Berserker captain smirked and said. "Surrender or—" He didn't finish because he and the other Berserkers ducked to avoid getting bit by some razor sharp spikes.
The looked up and saw the Hiccup and the others flying at them.
"Nice shooting Astrid." Hiccup said and looked at Snotlout. "Snotlout, light them up." Snotlout flew down towards the Berserker ship and destroyed. "Okay, Ragnar. It's are turn."
"Right behind you." Ragnar yelled.
Toothless then fired a plasma blast and Skull let loose a powerful roar that sent the Berserker ship back.
"Retreat. Retreat." The Berserker captain ordered.
The Berserker ship then sailed away from the iceberg.
Moments later they were all on Bucket and Mulch's ship talking about what had happened.
"What happened here?" Hiccup asked.
"Well, we thought the Berserker hit an iceberg and so we came into help." Mulch explained. "They attacked us."
"I was wondering when we would hear from Dagur again. We haven't seen him since that night on Dragon Island." Ragnar said in a concerning tone. "But why did they attack you?"
"Because we saw it." Mulch said.
Hiccup looked at both Astrid and Ragnar and the three of them looked at Mulch. "It?" They said at the same time.
Mulch then took them to the iceberg and pointed. "It." He said.
They looked and saw and saw something frozen in the ice. Near it were tools, no doubt the Berserker had been trying to cut it loose.
Hiccup walked over to it and looked closely at it. "That looks like a…" He said and brushed some frost off it and saw dragon trapped inside. "Dragon."
"And from the looks like the Berserker have been trying to free it." Ragnar said examining the tools.
"Why would the Berserkers be trying to dig it out?" Astrid asked.
"No idea." Hiccup said and picked up a small hammer. "But I'm going to find out."
"Oh, great. Now we have to dig it out?" Snotlout complained.
"Actually, we'll have a far easier time digging it out than the Berserkers would." Ragnar said.
"He's right." Hiccup said.
He looked at Toothless, who was rolling around playfully in the snow.
About an hour later the dragon riders were carrying the frozen dragon with their dragons connected by rope. While Bucket and Mulch's ship followed them close behind as they made their way back to Berk.
Later that evening at the arena, the dragon riders were discussing what to do about the fozen dragon.
"I say we smash it." Snotlout said slamming his fist into his palm.
"I say we blast it." Tuffnut said as he and sister climbed onto the frozen dragon.
"I say we blast it, then smash it." Ruffnut said as they sat down onto the frozen dragon.
"Then blast it again." The twins said at the same time.
"Stop saying what I'm saying now!" Tuffnut yelled at his sister.
"Yeah, that's certainly one approach." Hiccup said and walked up to the frozen dragon.
"Good sir, I believe it is actually three approaches, my fine fellow." Tuffnut said as he and Ruffnut slid off the ice.
"True. But I think we need a more careful way of studying this dragon." Ragnar said as he walked up to it as well.
"Rag's right. We need a better look at this thing." Hiccup said and looked at Fishlegs. "Fishlegs, give us a slow burn."
"With pleasure. Meatlug." Fishlegs said as turned to look at Meatlug and whistled. " Lava blast."
Meatlug then walked up to the frozen dragon and fired a lava blast melting a chuck of the ice.
"Nice, Fishlegs." Hiccup said.
Once the steam cleared Hiccup, Ragnar and Fishlegs walked up to it looked at it. It had large wings, a spiked back and tail. It slightly resembles a Thunderdrum and its head also resembles that of a Deadly Nadder. The three of them recognised the dragon and it made them both excited and worried.
"I don't believe it." Ragnar said.
"Is that what I think it is?" Hiccup asked.
"I think so, but I've only seen pictures." Fishlegs said.
"Do you two realise how huge this could be." Hiccup said looking at them.
"The word 'epic' comes to mind." Fishlegs said.
"And this could mean trouble for us if we're right.'" Ragnar said.
The other dragon riders were looking at them with blank faces.
"I hate it when they get like this." Astrid said crossing her arms.
"Don't you just?" Snotlout said smiling at her.
"I should check the Book of Dragons to be sure about this." Fishlegs said as the three of them walked out of the arena.
"And I'll check my drawing. I'm sure I've seen it in them." Ragnar said.
"Yeah. Good idea." Hiccup said. "Because Rag's right, if we're right, this could mean big trouble."
"If someone doesn't start filling me in, I'm getting my axe." Astrid yelled running after them.
Once they were gone, Snotlout and the twins turned towards the frozen dragon and smiled. Hiccup then reappeared and looked down at them.
"No one touches that ice while we're gone." Hiccup yelled.
Snotlout and the twins smiled and raised their hands in a surrender gesture.
At the Great Hall, Vikings were arguing about the Berserker attack on Bucket and Mulch.
"All right. Calm down." Stoick ordered.
"This is an act of war." Mulch said slamming his fist on the table.
"Don't jump to conclusions about what this attack means." Stoick said.
"I don't know, Stoick. Seems pretty cut and dry to me." Gobber said. "I mean, if you really think about it, an attack is an attack. And let's not forget that my son has seen the Berserkers will attack Berk. Am I right, people?"
All the Viking shouted in argument. Stoick sighed and mentally facepalmed himself. "And thank you, Gobber." He said.
"Always here to help." Gobber said as if he'd do nothing wrong.
At that moment Hiccup, Astrid and Toothless entered the hall.
"I think I know why Dagur's men attacked Bucket and Mulch." Hiccup said as they walked up to them.
"Go on, son." Stoick said and everyone turned to look at them.
"We got a better look at the dragon Bucket and Mulch found in the ice." Hiccup said.
"We found a dragon?" Bucket said excitedly and looked at Mulch. "Oh, can we keep it? I've always wanted my own dragon, Mulch."
"Uh, it's a Skrill." Hiccup said nervously.
Everyone gasped and looked at him in horror.
"Oh. I don't want one of those." Bucket said.
"Are you sure about this, son?" Stoick asked hoping that he was wrong.
"Oh, we are sure." Fishlegs voice said behind them.
They looked behind them and saw Ragnar carrying some pieces of paper and Fishlegs, who was running up towards them excitedly with the Book of Dragons in his hand. He warped his arms around Hiccup and Astrid and began to cheer loudly. Stoick and the other Viking looked at him with disturbed looks of their faces.
Fishlegs stopped once he saw those faces and said. "Sorry, chief, that happens sometimes when we discover a new dragon. I get a little—"
"Look, it's right here." Hiccup interrupted opening the Book of Dragons and showed them a picture of the dragon they found. "That is definitely a Skrill."
"And the Skrill is the symbol of the Berserker tribe." Astrid said.
"And I found these." Ragnar said showing them some of his drawings.
One of them showed the frozen Skrill in its icy tomb. The second one showed them fighting the Skrill and the Berserkers.
"Just as we feared." Hiccup said.
"According to the Book of Dragons the Skrill is the only dragon that can go toe to toe with a Night Fury." Ragnar said as the five of them along with Stoick and Gobber walked out the Great Hall.
"Legend has it the lightning comes from the Skrill's mouth and thunder from its—well, you know." Gobber said.
"Remind me never to get behind one." Astrid said.
"That's actually inaccurate." Fishlegs said. "According to the Book of Dragons, the Skrill drew lighting from the clouds and redirected it."
"It could use that lightning to hit several targets at once, which is why it was a feared dragon." Hiccup said.
"And it's a strike class dragon, that when it is fully charged it is the second fastest dragon in the known world." Ragnar said.
"It could also store the lightening in its body and use it later." Fishlegs added.
"I've heard enough." Stoick said. "We need to get rid of that Skrill. It's just the excuse Dagur needs to go to war."
"You all know I love a good fight as much as the next person, but why not just give it to them?" Gobber asked. "It's just a frozen dragon carcass after all."
"Did you forget the seconded drawing a showed you?" Ragnar asked.
"Rag's right. Because of their internal body temperature, Skrills can stay safely frozen for decades." Fishlegs said.
Moments later they were all walking down to the arena.
"So let me be clear. This dragon may still be alive and you left Ruffnut, Tuffnut and Snotlout to guard it?" Stoick said to his son.
"Okay, that sounds much worse when you say it." Hiccup admitted. "But it's frozen solid in a block of ice. How much dragon could it possibly do?"
At that moment there was a huge explosion coming from the arena.
"I think we're about to find out." Ragnar said.
"One of these days I've got to stop saying things like that." Hiccup said rubbing his forehead.
Toothless then roared and ran towards the arena.
At the arena, it was still covered in smoke and Snotlout and the twins were on their dragons.
"It's not that bad." Ruffnut said.
"Yeah, maybe Hiccup won't notice." Tuffnut said.
"No he's definitely going to notice." Snotlout said.
The smoke then cleared and reviled the Skrill, which was now free and wide awake and glared at them.
"Yeah, for sure. He's going to notice." Tuffnut agreed.
Toothless then ran into the arena and saw the Skrill. The other dragons approached it and it roared at them. It then flew up, but hit the safety chain and electricity pasted right through it. The Skrill then crashed down back on the floor and roared at the dragons that were advising on it.
Knowing it was outnumbered it pushed past Stormfly and Skull and flew out of the arena and into the sky.
"I got a plan." Tuffnut said.
"Great." Ruffnut said. Then she looked at him. "What is it?"
"Blame Snotlout." Tuffnut said.
At that moment the other dragon riders ran into the arena along with Stoick and Goober. Hiccup groaned and glared at them.
"Their fault." Snotlout said pointing.
"Hey. He stole our plan." Ruffnut said.
"I told you guys to leave it alone." Hiccup said.
"It jumped us." Tuffnut said as he and his sister hopped of Barf and Belch. "Sneak dragon."
"From inside a block an ice?" Hiccup said raising an eyebrow.
"Uh… very sneaky dragon." Tuffnut said.
Hiccup muttered to himself and saw Stoick groaning as he examined the ice. "What is it, dad?" He asked.
"When I was lad, my grandfather used to sit me on his knee and tell me stories." Stoick said and got up and looked at him. "I thought they were just tales."
"Tales about what?" Hiccup asked.
"Berserker fleets attacking behind harnessed dragons that brought down lightning from the sky and destroyed everything in their path." Stoick explained.
"That explains why the Berserker crest is that of a Skrill." Ragnar said.
"You thing the Berserkers could actually control a Skrill?" Hiccup asked.
"I didn't think anyone could ride a Night Fury or could see into the future in their dreams." Stoick said. "We just can't take the chance. If the Berserkers find that Skrill and know some way to control it—"
"We'll find it dad. I promise." Hiccup said.
The next morning the dragon riders began to look for the Skrill. Today it was cloudy with thunder clouds.
"Any idea what we do after we find it?" Astrid asked.
"We catch it, we tame it, we train it, keep it away from Dagur so he doesn't us it against us." Hiccup said.
"Oh, yeah. That sounds easy enough." Astrid said sarcastically.
"And it'll have the normal success we have when training wild dragons with a bad attitude." Ragnar said remembering Toothless' rival.
"Actually, the Skrill does have some weaknesses." Fishlegs said. "According to the Book of Dragons, it can't redirect any lightning if it's in the water."
"That's a start." Hiccup said.
"No, a start would be having any clue where this stupid thing is. We've been circling the island for hours and I'm starving." Snotlout complained.
The moment Snotlout said that Hiccup got an idea. "Snotlout, you just said something unintentionally brilliant." He said.
"Of course I did." Snotlout said proudly. He thought for a moment and looked back at Hiccup. "What was it again?"
"When you wake up in the morning, what's the very first thing you want to do?" Hiccup asked.
Snotlout looked at him and said. "Well, usually I have to—"
"No, after that." Hiccup interrupted.
"Oh. Eat." Snotlout said after facepalming himself.
"Exactly." Hiccup said and looked up at Fishlegs. "Fishlegs, what is the Skrill's food of choice?"
Fishlegs thought for a moment and lead them towards a farm.
When they got there they found the entire farm and been attack. There were scorch marks on the ground and some of the sheep were still smoking.
They then asked the questions about the Skrill for the farmer. But was difficult because this was Silent Sven and like his name suggests he was mute and they could ask his wife because she was tending to the sheep.
Silent Sven looked at them and made some gestures with his spear.
"And then you fought off the Skrill with your head?" Astrid asked not sure to believe him or not.
"This guy Silent Sven? Remind me not to rustle anymore sheep from his farm." Snotlout said to Fishlegs.
At that moment Silent Sven glared at him and pointed his spear at his chin. Snotlout chuckled nervously and raised his arms up in an 'I surrender' gesture.
"Uh, he's silent, not deaf." Fishlegs said and careful pushed the spear away.
Astrid then shoved Snotlout out of the way and continued to ask questions. "Any idea which way the Skrill went?"
Silent Sven shook his head.
They then heard a crash of thunder. They looked around and saw lightning coming from the thunder clouds.
"I'll give you three guess where it went." Ragnar said.
"That way?" Hiccup asked.
"Got it in one." Ragnar said.
Moments later the dragon riders were flying through the thunder clouds to find the Skrill.
"Shh, it's okay baby." Fishlegs said to Meatlug. "Nothing's out here. Nothing's going to scare you."
"Hold up, everybody." Hiccup said.
They stopped and saw a shadowy figure coming towards them and it looked a lot like the Skrill.
"Okay, now what?" Astrid asked.
"Everybody stay back." Hiccup ordered. "If the Skrill sees just one dragon, maybe it won't attack."
"That's a big maybe." Ragnar said.
Hiccup ignored him and flew towards the Skrill. The Skrill was fast and it nearly threw the other dragon riders off their dragons as it flew by. Eventually Hiccup caught with the Skrill, only for it to glare at them and give out an angry growl as they flew closer to it.
"There, there, fella. You've been asleep a long time, huh?" Hiccup said as he stretched out his hand towards it, only to pull it way as a shot of electricity past through its body. "I'm guessing you're pretty cranky and hungry too."
The Skrill then shot off and turned to face them. It then began to draw lightning into its body.
"Hiccup!" Astrid yelled as she and the other dragon riders flew down towards them.
The Skrill was about to shot lightning at Hiccup, but he and Toothless flew away. The Skrill then saw the other dragon riders flying towards it and fired lightning blasts at them. Skull then came forwards and took the blast head on, only for him and Ragnar unharmed.
"How come you two didn't get electrocuted?" Astrid asked puzzled.
"I'm guessing Skull's armour acts as an insulator." Ragnar said. They then nearly missed another lightning blast. "But there are limits on how much one can take."
All the dragon riders had to move fast to dodge the lightning blasts from the Skrill. Fishlegs and Meatlug had to fall to avoid one. The Skrill then flew away.
"And stop." Fishlegs said and Meatlug flapped her wings to stop them falling. They stopped falling and flew next to Snotlout, Fishlegs then took a deep breath. "Wow, that was impressive."
"Sure, if by impressive you mean terrifying." Snotlout said yelling the last part.
"Follow me. I've got an idea." Hiccup said. They then flew out of the clouds and close to the sea. "I'm going to dive through the clouds from above and drive that Skrill down to you guys so we can all drive it into the water."
"Got it." Tuffnut said. He then thought for a moment and looked at Hiccup. "No I don't sorry. Could we go back to the first part about how you're in the cloud, or the cloud in you? It's all—it's sort of nebulous for me. Like a cloud in fact."
Hiccup had his face in his palm not believing what he was hearing. "Just do what everyone else does." He said.
"And how exactly are we going to find the Skrill in that cloud?" Astrid asked.
"Yeah, you'll be flying blind in there." Ragnar pointed out.
"Toothless doesn't need to see to find something, remember?" Hiccup reminded them.
"Does that work in clouds?" Astrid asked.
"There's only on way to find out." Hiccup said.
Then he and Toothless flew up through the clouds. They then dived down through the clouds.
"Toothless, now!" Hiccup ordered.
Toothless then began to fire plasma blasts into the clouds. They soon found the Skrill and both dragons circled around one another. They then flew out under the clouds and passed over Astrid and Ragnar.
The two of them chased after them and caught up with the Skrill. Once they were in range Stormfly and Skull fired streams of fire at it and Toothless fired plasma blasts to assist them. The Skrill was having a hard time to dodge the attacks.
"It's working!" Astrid cheered.
"Then let's keep up the pressure." Ragnar said.
The twins then caught up to the Skrill.
"Time to give this dragon a bath." Tuffnut said.
"I'll bet he hates it as much as we do." Ruffnut said.
Barf then let out some gas, but before Belch could spark it a fire arrow it the gas and there was an explosion. The Explosion was big enough to send the twins and their dragon flying.
Astrid and Ragnar looked were the arrow came from, but saw a couple of boulders heading their way. Stormfly managed to dodge one and Skull knocked the other one back with his tail.
"We're under attack!" Astrid yelled.
Hiccup the saw several arrows heading his way. Toothless moved out of the way in time. Fishlegs was having the same problem and Meatlug had throw him up so they missed the arrows.
Snotlout was having a different problem. The Skrill had sneak up behind him without him knowing. He then heard the electricity past through its body and looked around and saw the Skrill behind him ready to attack.
"Oh, no." Snotlout said.
The Skrill then fired lightning blasts at him. Hokkfang did everything thing he could to dodge the blasts. The Skrill then passed over him and sent electricity through his helmet and into his body. This caused him to babble uncontrollably.
Hiccup then saw who had been attacking them.
"Uh, is that…?" Hiccup asked.
"I'm afraid so." Ragnar said.
Below them were three Berserker ships and standing on the flag ship was Dagur the Deranged himself.
"Surprise, surprise, Hiccup!" Dagur yelled. He then began to laugh uncontrollably. "Now get your dainty little hands off my Skrill."
Then Berserker soldiers aimed their crossbows and catapults at them. Then arrows and boluders headed straight at Hiccup, Ragnar and Fishlegs.
Toothless quickly fired a plasma blast destroying one of the boulders, Skull wacked the second one away with his tail and Meatlug ate the last one.
"Let's get out of range before they reload." Hiccup said.
Then Fishlegs zoomed past him. "Already a head of you." He said.
"Let's go, bud." Hiccup said.
They then all flew away from both the Skrill and the Berserker ships.
Minutes later they all land on a nearby sea stack. Snotlout was still smoking from the electric shock he got from the Skrill.
"Het, Snotlout, are you okay?" Hiccup asked.
"Ha, his better than okay." Tuffnut said. "Did you see that lightning bolt to the head?"
Snotlout then said thinking, but no one could understand him.
"Tuffnut's right. Better than okay." Astrid said cheerfully. Snotlout then blathered. "And making more sense than usual."
"Okay, he's out of it, so the rest of us will—" Hiccup said before Snotlout interrupted by blathering with his arms crossed. "Snotlout, we have no idea what you're saying."
"Sure we do. He said, 'I'm perfectly fine.'" Tuffnut said and Snotlout blathered. "Said it again. I told them." Everyone just stared at him. "What? I speak post-lightning Snotlout."
"How many times has this kid been hit by lightning?" Hiccup asked not believing what he was hearing.
"Often enough." Tuffnut said and Snotlout blathered again. "Oh, really? 12 times?" Snotlout then blathered angrily. "He said, 'enough talk. Dagur's all mine. And Tuffnut is the toughest of us all.'" Snotlout then blathered again. "He implied the last part."
Hiccup groaned and facepalmed himself with both hands. "Well, you heard the man, Astrid. Take Snotlout and Fishlegs and try to keep the Berserker ships occupied. Ragnar, the twins and I will go after the Skrill." He said. "If Dagur gets his hands on it first, we won't stand a chance."
"Be careful. The lightning is attracted to metal and you two are wearing a lot more of it than the rest of us." Astrid reminded.
"Don't worry." Ragnar said. "I'll make sure nothing happens to him."
Astrid nodded and they all flew their separate ways.
Astrid and her group were flying towards the Berserker ships.
"Stormfly, let's rock some boats." Astrid said.
She then dived down and fired a stream of fire at one of the Berserker ships. Snotluot then came down firing on another one blathering as he did. Fishlegs was hovering next to one of the burning ships.
"Oh, hello." He said to a Berserker and Meatlug fired a lava blast at him.
Dagur was watching the battle giving orders to his soldiers. "Stay on target." He said. "He's trick that Hiccup." He then hid behind the mast to avoid getting hit by Stormfly's spikes.
Meanwhile Hiccup and his group were flying up into the clouds, towards the Skrill.
"Okay, I think I have a way to get the Skrill into the water, but it's super risky." Hiccup said.
"You, my friend, are speaking our language." Tuffnut said.
"Yeah, I'll be disappointed if it wasn't." Ragnar said.
"Ruff, Tuff, you two will be flying blind through the cloud and have Barf let out as much gas as possible." Hiccup said. "Don't let Belch ignite it until you get to the other side."
"Feel my heart, because it comes forth and is bursting through my chest." Tuffnut said teary-eyed.
"Hopefully the blast will drive the Skrill out of the cloud towards Toothless, Skull, Ragnar and I, where we can knock it down with a plasma blast and a tail smash."
"That's a lot of gas." Tuffnut said. "You have any idea how big a blast that will be?" Tuffnut asked.
"No." Hiccup and Ragnar said at the same time.
"Me neither!" Tuffnut said excitedly. "How awesome is this?"
Then the twins flew into the cloud. Hiccup and Ragnar waited outside it hoping that the plan will work.
Once they were over the cloud, Ruffnut looked down at Barf. "That's it. Let it loose." She said. Barf then began letting out gas into the cloud.
Belch was about to spark it, but Tuffnut stopped him. "Not you Belch. Not yet." He said. They kept on flying through the cloud. "Wait for it. Wait for it." Once they reached the other side of the cloud Barf stopped letting out gas. "Go!" Belch then sparked the gas.
Then there was a massive explosion. Hiccup and Ragnar looked around for the Skrill and saw it flying pass them. They then dived down after it and it began to fly back up into the cloud.
"It's flying back up!" Hiccup yelled.
"We have to stop it before it enters the cloud!" Ragnar yelled.
"Okay, bud, not too much. Just enough to bring him down." Hiccup said.
"Then we'll finish the job." Ragnar said.
Toothless fired a plasma blast straight the Skrill, but then it fired a lightning blast. Once the two shots hit they created an explosion that cancelled each other out.
"Okay, that's a new one." Hiccup said.
"Looks like this is going to be harder than we thought." Ragnar said.
"Well, let's see how it handles this." Hiccup said.
They then flew after it and once they flew beside it, Toothless fired several plasma blasts, but the Skrill fired several lightning blasts cancelling each other out again. Skull tried to slam it with his tail, but the Skrill dodged and fired a lightning shot that nearly missed Ragnar, forcing them back. It then dived into the cloud and lightning drew towards it recharging it.
"This is bad." Hiccup said. The Skrill then zoomed out, now with lightning coursing through it body and fired a lightning blast that nearly missed him. Hiccup quickly flew away from it, but it started to chase him. "This is worse."
The Skrill then began firing lightning blasts at them. Toothless had a hard time dodging each one of them as it chased them into a cloud.
Meanwhile Astrid's group were still attacking the Berserker ships. Snotlout was firing fire blasts at the ships blathering that sounded a lot like 'Snotlout! Snotlout! Oi! Oi! Oi!'
As they were fighting Astrid noticed a Vorg, who was pushed overboard by Dagur because he felt like it, climbed back on board the ship and saw Hiccup trying to avoid getting hit by the Skrill's lightning blasts.
"Sir, look." Vorg said pointing.
Dagur looked at what he was pointing at and smiled happily. "Well, well, it doesn't look like Hiccup will be catching my Skrill either." He said.
"Then perhaps we should withdraw, come back for the Skrill another day." Vorg suggested.
Dagur glared at and raised an eyebrow. "Um, didn't I throw you overboard?" He asked.
"Well, I am and excellent swimmer." Vorg said.
Dagur then threw him overboard and looked at the other Berserkers. "Press on." He ordered.
Astrid then flew up to Fishlegs. "Dagur knows what we're up to." She said.
"What do we do?" Fishlegs asked.
"We keep attacking and make sure Dagur is focused on us." Astrid said.
"I hope Hiccup is having an easier time than us." Fishlegs said as Mealtug fired a lava blast at one of the Berserker ships.
Up in the sky, Hiccup just missed getting hit by one of the Skrill's lightning blast.
"Oh, that one made my hair stand up." Hiccup said. "We need a plan and fast."
The Skrill then flew straight at them, but got hit by a gas and spark attack from Barf and Belch. Then it got sent back, by roar from Skull. Hiccup looked up and saw Ragnar and the twins flying towards him.
"Yoo-hoo! Remember us?" Tuffnut asked. "Gas me, Ruff."
"With pleasure." Ruffnut said. Barf tried to let some gas, but he was all out of it.
The Skrill then flew towards them and fired a lightning blast that went in-between Barf and Belch's necks and the twin flew away. Skull tried to slam it with his tail, but the Skrill was too fast and missed. Hiccup and Ragnar then flew after it.
The Skrill was still chasing the twins. They both looked at each other wondering what to do.
"Maybe we should take off our metal helemts?" Tuffnut suggested.
"Or maybe we should grab all the metal we can!" Ruffnut said.
Tuffnut nodded and they both pulled out their swords and cheered.
The Skrill was getting closer to them and was ready to fire a lightning blast at them. Behind it was Hiccup, with Ragnar following close behind.
"Don't wait up for me, Hiccup! Go!" Ragnar yelled.
Hiccup nodded and zoomed ahead, just as the Skrill fired its lightning blast. Hiccup then came up in front of it and Toothless fired a plasma blast.
The two blasts collided and created an explosion so big that it sent everyone in different directions, including the Skrill. Ragnar and Skull landed in the sea, while Hiccup and Toothless landed on Dagur's ship.
"Hiccup." Dagur growled getting up.
"Sorry about your deck." Hiccup said and flew off.
Dagur yelled in frustration and pushed Vorg that was climbing abroad into the sea.
Hiccup and Ragnar, who was as well as Skull soaking wet joined up with the other dragon riders. The only ones who were missing were the twins.
"Did anybody see where the Skrill went?" Hiccup asked.
"No." Astrid said.
"No." Ragnar said as he drenched the water out of his shirt.
"No." Fishlegs said.
Snotlout looked at him and blathered. Hiccup could only guess that he said 'no.'
"Anyone see where the twins ended up?" Fishlegs asked.
Far out at sea, the twins and just crashed landed on a sea stack hard. Barf and Belch got up and rearranged their necks. The twins then saw a ship in the distance pulling the Skrill on board.
"Oh, great. We do all the work and the Berserkers get the Skrill anyway." Tuffnut complained.
"And that is way we don't work." Ruffnut said. "It accomplishes nothing."
"Yeah." Tuffnut agreed. That's when he saw that it wasn't a Berserker it was an Outcast ship and on board it was Alvin. "Wait a minute. That's not the Berserkers. That's Alvin the Treacherous."
They then saw the Outcasts pulling the Skrill on board and Alvin chuckling.
"Why would Alvin what a Skrill?" Ruffnut asked.
"Why wouldn't he? Did you see that thing?" Tuffnut pointed out. "He could take out Berk with it."
"Oh, yeah." Ruffnut said. "So we should do something, right?"
Tuffnut thought for a moment and then said. "Yes, yes, we should." He thought for a second and looked at his sister. "Okay, I say we follow him."
"Okay. And then want?" Ruffnut asked.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's not get ahead of ourselves, okay?" Tuffnut said.
"Yeah. Good point." Ruffnut said.
They then flew into the air and followed the Outcast ship that was heading for Outcast Island.
