Hey guys! I'm thankful for all the suggestions you guys left in the comments, I'm going to try and incorporate all of them into the chapter, but sorry if I forget to add your suggestion in or it just doesn't fit into the plot very well.
"Oh gods, how could I have let this happen." Stoick muttered as he paced around the armory nervously, Astrid stood at the forge and pounded on some glowing metal before dipping it into some water and she pulled out a shiny new sword.
"It's not your fault." She said, not really paying attention before getting some more metal and heating it up.
"Yes it is! If I had just eaten her food that night, then we wouldn't have gone to the Great Hall, which means that Mildew wouldn't have made her run off and get captured! And then Hiccup was captured because he risked himself for Toothless and I!" Stoick 0countered as Astrid made another sword and put it in a pile of weapons and armor.
"Uh huh." She mumbled.
"Oh gods I hope they are alright. I'm such a terrible husband and father." He complained before sitting down on a bench and sighing as Astrid polished a shiny new axe.
"Well maybe this'll brighten your spirits." She said before throwing Stoick the axe, which was shiny in the sun pouring from the window.
"Hmmmm, are you sure this will hold up in a fight? It seems kind of light." Stoick asked as Astrid laughed and grabbed one of the swords.
"Please." She said before grabbing a plain iron sword and handing it to Stoick.
"Hold it up in front of you." She asked as Stoick did so, Astrid then took a swing at the sword, which split in half the second the Gronkle Iron hit the blade.
"This will definitely be a good weapon in out siege of Outcast island." He commented as Astrid laughed a bit.
"Yep, Hiccup's a genius inventor. Now lets get him back from Alvin." She said as Stoick smiled a bit.
"Yes, just finish making the weapons and armor and Alvin'll be in prison the second we land on their shored." He said proudly as Astrid smiled.
"Yeah." She said before walking back over to the forge and pounding some more metal.
"Help me train my dragons!" Alvin snarled as he lifted Hiccup up by the hair, a look of pure horror on his bruised face as Valka stared at him in despair.
"D-Don't." He choked as Alvin punched him in the face, making Valka wince.
"N-No." She whimpered as he threw Hiccup to the side, who hit the wall with a thud and moaned in pain.
"Hiccup!" She yelped as he shakily got up, only for Alvin to stomp his foot on his back, pinning Hiccup to the ground.
"I-I'm not worth all these dragons." Hiccup muttered as Alvin growled angrily and pick him up by the throat.
"Your move Valka, your son or the dragons." He sneered as Hiccup feebly tried to rip his hands off his throat.
"Well...? I haven't got all day." Alvin threatened as his grip became tighter and Hiccup's struggling started to die down and Valka's eyes became wide.
"No! NO! I'll train your dragons!" She screamed as Alvin smirked and dropped Hiccup, who sputtered and coughed as he tried to catch his breath.
"M-Mom, n-no." He begged as an Outcast came by and dragged him away. Valka took a deep breath and nodded.
"I'll train your dragons if you leave him alone." She said as Alvin grinned and unlocked her cell, but still keeping a close eye on her as she walked out.
"First train those Night Furies. Then we'll talk about the hybrid." He said as Valka glared at him.
"His name is Hiccup." She snarled as Alvin poked her with his sword.
"I don't care." He said before unlocking the door and throwing her into the same cell Lily and the Night Fury hatchlings were in. She gasped as Lily's eye barely cracked open before they quickly closed again.
"Hey Valka." She muttered as the hatchlings perked up and tried to run over to her.
"Valka! Where's daddy?!" Rosie asked excitedly as Valka sighed and put her head in her hand.
"And Hiccup?" Forest added.
"I'm so sorry, we're on our own right now." She muttered quietly as Lily turned her head away.
"My parents always told me that if someone loves you enough, they'll be by your side no matter what. To protect you think and thin. Toothless is that someone, and Stoick is that someone for you, and Astrid is that someone for Hiccup. The Berkains will come with a plan. I can be sure of that." She said as Valka bent down and put a hand on her head.
"I wish I could be that sure." She sighed as she turned to see Darkscale limping towards her.
"P-Please help us." He whimpered as Alvin hit the metal bars.
"I don't see training! I'll get the boy if you-"
"No!" Valka pleaded as Alvin smirked, "I'll train the dragons."
"Just follow my lead." She whispered before winking and holding out her hand.
"Come on little hatchlings, work for Alvin." She coaxed as she walked a bit closer to the hatchlings.
"Just bow down to Alvin now," She glanced over at him, "You dumb dragons." She added before mouthing, 'sorry.'
"Hey." Valka muttered before slowly standing up and turning to face Alvin.
"Where's Cloudjumper?" She asked as Alvin's grin fell.
"It's not doin' too well, but if course he would get much better if it saw you again." He said as Valka gulped.
"Bring me to him. I already trained them for you." She said before turning around and winking at the Night Furies.
"Very well, but this better not be a trick, for your son's sake." He threatened as he escorted Valka out as a few more Outcasts walked up to the cell and towards the Night Furies.
"Act like they're friendly." She called out as Lily nodded and cooed as one of the men walked towards her.
"Now where's Cloudjumper?"
Hiccup's lip quivered as the sound of footsteps came from down the hall. He used his wings to try and hide in the shadows in the cell. He poked his head out from his wings really quickly and gasped. Astrid stood next to Stormfly with a crowbar.
"Astrid!" He exclaimed as she quickly shushed him.
"We need to get out quickly and quietly." She whispered before using the bar to pry open the cell door and let Hiccup out. He tackled her into a huge hug and kissed her on the forehead.
"Oh Thor, thank you, thank you so much." He said as Astrid laughed and pushed him off.
"Y-Your welcome. And here's a Gronkle iron sword and your shield, we're taking over Outcast island." She explained before a shadow darted from the corridor and Toothless covered him in a layer of saliva.
"Hiccup! Oh my gods I'm so happy to see you! Thank the gods you're alright, mostly." He commented, gesturing to his bruised face.
"Yeah, Alvin roughed me up pretty bad. He wanted information out of my mom, but she didn't crack. Well, she cracked only a few minutes ago. But if you just got here then she wouldn't have had enough time to help him, right?" He asked as Astrid shrugged.
"Sure, I hope. Your dad is getting her now. Now we need to get out." She muttered before jumping onto Stormfly and Hiccup onto Toothless.
"Come on bud, let's crack some skulls." He said as Toothless grinned and they started to race down the hallway, until something made the dragons and Hiccup stop and they're eyes turned to slits.
"Hiccup?" She asked quietly as he growled and she looked around in confusion.
"Looking for this?" A voice asked as Fen stepped out of the shadows and tossed a little plant in the air and caught it, he held it up and shook it, making the dragons snarl and slowly walk towards him, he poked a string through it and tied it into a necklace.
"Dragon root. Makes even the most intelligent and civilized dragons into bloodthirsty monsters." He said befor throwing it around Hiccup's neck, who snarled and clawed at it, the other dragons starting to attack him as well.
"Heh, they'll tear him to shreds in minutes." Fen said as he casually walked away, shooting a smirk at Astrid as he did so.
"Hiccup! Toothless! Stormfly no!" She screamed as she lunges towards Hiccup, trying to take the necklace off, but instead ended up in the middle of the Frey.
"AHHHHHHHH!" She wailed as Hiccup threw her against the wall in anger before walking towards the other dragons.
"Did you just hear that?" Valka asked as Stoick punched Alvin in the face.
"Yes." He said before looking down at Alvin, who smirked and got up.
"Fen deployed the dragon root." He said as all the color drained from Valka's face.
"You monsters!" She snarled before kicking Alvin across the face and sprinting in the direction of the scream.
"What is dragon root?!" Stoick demanded as he picked Alvin up by the collar of his shirt, who laughed and wiped away the blood from the bloody nose Valka gave him.
"A plant that makes dragons go nuts and attack each other. Or at least that's what Fen tells me." He said as Stoick's face turned white and he threw Alvin to the side before racing after Valka.
"Val! Hold on!" He screamed as Alvin got up and started to cackle maniacally.
"Yes, have the dragons tear them apart."

Eeveecat1248: Hmmm, well if you kill Alvin first then the Outcasts will fall, if you kill Mildew first then, well, he's dead (which is my dream XD ), and if you kill Fen first, then the Outcasts lose their leading dragon expert. Man this is a hard decision.
