It was soon dawn and Dragon Tail had managed to survive the first assault, though it had left scars. Many of the houses had been badly damaged along with the temple and this was only a small vanguard compared to the rest of Alvarez army and to make matters worse the Thunder Legion was out of commission.

"We've managed to fend off the first wave of attacks," said Stoick addressing the Guild. "However, the fact remains that we're facing enemy forces coming at us from every direction."

"That's true," said Helga. "But now we have support from every other Guild in Septem."

"No worries with them in the fight, we've got this," said Ingrid.

"Hold on," said Master Hiccup holding out his hand. "This is a matter for Dragon Tail to resolve, I had hoped to keep our fellow Guilds out of this confrontation."

"That kind of attitude is only going to get us killed, you know," said Alvin. "Septem is being turned into a war zone so every Guild and its soil has to fight and as for me, I'll start by stomping the guy that attacked the Thunder Legion."

"Alvin makes a valid point, First Master," said Stoick. "We should accept help from the other guilds with gratefulness in our hearts and devise a new strategy accordingly."

"If it wasn't for Olatrand blocking that previous attack, everyone in the Guild would be done for," Hiccup reminded him. "Besides if we deny their help now, it would make everyone think we're just too proud to accept their help and pride has been the defeat of many an army."

Master Hiccup remained absolutely quiet, clearly, he wasn't happy with the situation but he knew there was nothing he could do to stop it.

Stoick turned to Speedfist. "Speedfist, give me a situation report."

"I'm on it, Master," said Speedfist as he brought the screen up.


Brandish was currently locked up in the Guild, no one had taken a chance and had put seal stone manacles on her hands and feet. Also guarding her was Spitelout and then he turned towards Gobber, who had created a steal stone.

"So this seal stone, it really stops him from using magic?" Spitelout asked.

"We don't have the fancy prison cells that the Viking Council users, but seal stone works just as well so long as we don't remove them," Gobber assured him. "And I think it's best that you don't look at her manner."

Spitelout had a somewhat lustful look when he looked down at Brandish, understandable since she was only wearing a bikini.

"Do all Western girls wear is something that skimpy?" Spitelout pondered.

Ruby then appeared out of nowhere and punched on the back head. "You're one guy who was never going to find out." She then scolded Spitelout. "Hiccup said we should treat every prisoners of ours with respect remember!"

"I did try to warn you," said Gobber shaking his head.

Ruby then turned towards Brandish. "Time for the truth, I need to know if you have some kind of connection to my mother. There has to be a reason why you call me Crystal's daughter back at my place?"

"I'm not telling you anything," she said. "If you're going to kill me, kill me."

"We don't do that kind of stuff to our prisoners," said Ruby. "So tell me how do you know my mum?"

"The only thing I'll tell you is you should kill me while you can, bringing me to your Guildhall like this was a major mistake. One that you won't live to regret."

"You're wasting your time with her," said Agatha.


Atran had managed to avoid getting caught and now he was lurking outside the Guildhall.

'So that's the enemy's base, huh,' he said smiling. 'Whether holding my lady against her will. Since I can control the Law of Space, I'll have no problem getting inside.'


Meanwhile, at the West, Krogan was informing both Drago and Yale about what had transpired at Berk.

"Your Majesty, it would appear both Chaghatai and Brandish had been defeated," he said.

"They have?" said Yale in shock.

"That's fine, we have to keep this fun and competitive," said Drago.

"Shaken by this," said Yale. "My son falling in battle so quickly."

"So two of the Twelve have already been killed, most unexpected," said Krogan.

"I assure you they're very much alive," said Krogan. "Which lights yet another one of our foes weaknesses."


Meanwhile, at the Guildhall, everyone was watching the advancement of Alvarez's forces from the East.

"There is a dire situation to the east," Speedfist announced. "The enemy is advancing through our eastern borders eliminating every single Guild in its wake."

"Oh no!"

"How could so many Guild to be defeated by one army?"

"That's not good!"

"I don't their goal was contrite eastern borders, but it looks as if they have stopped their advance for now," said Speedfist. "There is some good news though, the enemy army coming from the north is about to be met by Sabretooth and Blue Pegasus! And although the invaders of the South have taken the Shivering Shores Valkyries Sword and Thor's Hammer are on their way to drive them out."

"They've got it covered so that just leaves us to deal with the forces coming from East and West."

"Well, hopefully, that'll be the case but there's no guarantee they'll be able to stop them."

"Hey, try to have a little faith in our allies would you?"

"Come on, we've got a go and help our friends," said Gustav.

"He's right," said Helga. "If they're coming to our aid we can't just sit here and let them do all the fighting for us."

"We've got a jump in there and manned the front lines with them," said Ingrid.

"Of course," Master Hiccup nodded. "We'll form some squads, Valka… you, Snotlout, Adelaide, Eret, Cloudjumper, Skullcrusher and Fishlegs will take the North."

"Let's make them regret they ever came here!" Snotlout roared.

"We won't let you down," Valka vowed.

"We can handle them," said Adelaide.

"Got that right," said Fishlegs.

"Let's show them what we've got," said Eret.

"No rest for the wicked," Cloudjumper sighed.

"Especially during wartime," said Skullcrusher.

"And providing support to the south will be Hiccup, Toothless, Ragnar, Heather, Merrill, Stormfly and Alvin," said Master Hiccup.

"I guess that means we'll be seeing my old buddy Lyon again," said Ragnar.

"To be perfectly honest I would rather not," said Heather.

"If I go south I can destroy that mechanical freak's real body," said Alvin.

"It'll be great to be with Shanyla again," said Merrill.

"Yes, the Sea Sisters back in action," Stormfly nodded.

Ragnar then noticed that they were shot, someone. "Hang on, where's Hiccup?"

"I could have sworn that he was here with us," Heather frowned.

Everyone immediately began looking around, but there was no sign of Hiccup which was very much unlike him.

Astrid then stepped forward, she was covered in bandages and had to use a clutch to move. "Hiccup had some important business to deal with…"

"Astrid?" Stormfly stared.

"I volunteered to go south in his place," Astrid offered. "I would love to see Camicazi."

"But you're still two injured," said Merrill.

'I hope he's okay,' said Ruby silently.

"Ruby and Agatha, you'll stay here to watch over the prisoner," said Master Hiccup.

"Oh, yes ma'am," said Ruby shaking herself out of her thoughts.

"Definitely don't want to leave her alone with him," said Agatha her eyes turning towards Spitelout.

"Hey!" Spitelout snapped.

Master Hiccup then turned and looked at everyone. "Everyone else will defend the Guildhall, there is still a high probability of a surprise attack."

"Agreed," Stoick nodded. "But what of the forces coming from the East and West?"

"The Western armies moving much more slowly than the others which means that's very likely where Drago is coming from," said Master Hiccup.

Everyone immediately went quiet.

"We'll have to deal with the other three groups first, once they've been neutralised we'll fend him off with everything we've got left. And the eastern army poses the imminent threat right now, given the situation we must counter them with the strongest fighters we can find."

"And who would that be?" Gustav asked.

Master Hiccup turned and looked at Speedfist. "I assume we're in contact Speedfist?"

"Yes, ma'am," he nodded. "Septem's mightiest are ready for action."

Regarding the East were none other than the four Emperors of Septem, the most powerful Vikings that the continent had to offer.

"The four Emperors of Septem!"

"That's so cool!"

"I never saw this coming."

"I feel kind of bad for them since they've all been working so hard to avoid going to war," said Fishlegs. "But it seems to me as if there is nothing they could really do about it. A pretty awkward decision to be in."

"If the enemy is somehow able to fight their way past them there isn't a soul in Septem that can stop the invasion," said Master Hiccup. 'We're counting on you Wade.'

Then all of them noticed a single power signature was making its way to the West at an incredible speed.

"Wow, look did you see that!

"It's got to be Hiccup, it looks like we found him!"

"Check out how fast he's moving."

"He can only move that fast with Toothless giving him a hand," said Ragnar.

"What is that boy doing?" Stoick yelled.

Drago and the rest of his forces were aware of something making a beeline to them.

"My Lord, there's an object approaching us at high speed," said Krogan.

Drago smiled knowing very well who it was.

"It's time we end this once and for all, Drago!" Hiccup yelled.

Back at the Guildhall, everyone still can believe that Hiccup was making a move against Drago. Never before have they seen him do something so reckless, he didn't even inform them of what he intended to do.

"Don't tell me Hiccup thinks he can take on Drago all by himself?" said Adelaide stunned.

"Even I wouldn't do something that reckless," said Snotlout.

"It certainly unlike him," Alvin agreed.

"We need to back up, he needs us," said Ragnar.

Snotlout nodded. "You're right, I'll go too."

Astrid then raised her hand to stop them. "Hold on, we're all concerned but we must stick to the First Master's plan. Leave Drago to Hiccup."

Ragnar looked at her. "He told you what he was planning and you let him go along with it?"

"Don't forget that Hiccup told us he has the means to defeat him," Astrid reminded him. "I have no doubt that he will."

"I think you're letting your emotions cloud your judgement, you got way too much faith in him!"

Astrid narrowed her eyes. "Is that so? Meaning you don't have faith in him?"

Ragnar remained quiet, he had always trusted Hiccup and he had never let him down before. However, this time you'll be facing an opponent who is not only incredibly powerful but also immortal.

"The two of you will need to cool it down," said Ruby breaking the two of them up.

"What do we do?" Valka asked looking at Master Hiccup.

"We'll trust in Hiccup," he said. "I know it might seem like a reckless strategy, but there is some logic at its core. At the moment we're completely surrounded, killing off the head of the snake as early as possible my proved to be an effective way out of this situation. So, Ragnar, I want you to believe in him too."

Ragnar sighed. "I do have faith in him, and just don't like the idea that he's doing this alone."

"But he's not alone, he's got someone with him," Stormfly reminded him. "He's got Toothless."


Hiccup and Toothless were getting close to the front lines of the Western army.

"Okay, there they are," said Toothless.

"Hard to miss," said Hiccup. He wasn't kidding, the entire landscape was covered with enemy forces. "It looks like a big black carpet."

"And they're trying to roll the thing at our house."

"Take us down," Hiccup instructed.

"You got it!"

They then immediately dived down towards the enemy and slammed into them as fast as hard as possible. They had no idea what hit them as Hiccup drew his sword and covered in flames taking other men in front in mere seconds.

"What in the hell?"

"Enemy attack!"

"Let's go in for another attack," said Hiccup to Toothless.

"Still can't believe you want a fight all of them," said Toothless.

"No choice, it's the only way to draw out Drago and put an end to this quickly," said Hiccup.

Toothless then dropped him and he landed directly in front of the army and then he swung his sword unleashing a powerful burst of flames. The men in front were immediately incinerated as they were completely overwhelmed by such an attack.

"You're dead!"

"I'll kill you myself!"

Hiccup then charge out of the flames and headed straight towards them before they could brandish their spears he struck them with his sword causing them to fall to the ground. More soldiers charged at Hiccup, but there were no match for his strength and power as one by one they fell. They try to use their own magical attacks against him, but he easily not them aside.

"He knocked it away?"

"So what? Fire! Do not let him get closer!"

They then try to strike him down with a barrage of magical attacks, but he merely dodged every single one of them are advancing towards them. However one of them did get a lucky shot in which most of his time in the continue to bombard him.

"Hiccup," said Toothless looking slightly worried.

"I'm fine!" Hiccup yelled from the smoke. "I have to protect all of our friends which means I've got a fight… Fire Dragon King Roar!"

He took in a deep breath then unleashed a powerful burst of flames from his mouth, they were far more powerful than his ordinary flames at least about ten times more powerful. The attack was strong enough to wipe out a good portion of the soldiers in front and leaving a deep crevice which unnerved them.

"He just burned away the ground."

"No one said of fighting someone with that much power."

"How many of our did he take out?"

"973 men," said a voice.

All of the soldiers looked up and saw an orb of dark magic appearing before them. Hiccup immediately knew who was causing this and then when it dispelled appearing before them was Drago.

"Which leaves 999,027 remaining," he said.

Upon seen their Emperor, everyone single one of the soldiers had a massive morale boost.

"I thought I had a take-out more of your guys to get you out, but I'm not complaining," said Hiccup.

Drago huffed. "I must say I did not expect this move from you, attacking my army head and single-handedly."

Hiccup lifted his left sleeve and began undoing the bandages. "It's time we ended this once and for all… Drago."

The soldiers looked one another confused.

"Did you hear that? I think he called his Majesty Drago."

"Drago?"

Krogan then stepped forward. "That his Majesty's name in Septem."

"General Krogan?"

"They call him the Black Tyrant… Drago Bludvist," Krogan continued. "Perhaps that is his true name."

"You best give us some space, Krogan," Drago advised.

Hiccup looked up at Toothless. "Toothless, you step back as well."

"Right," Toothless nodded and flew higher up into the sky. 'He's planning on using it right off the bat? Best of luck, Hiccup.'

"I suggest that you take several kilometres back to the West," Drago advised to his men.

"Are you going to engage this fool?" said Krogan. "Your power is wasted on one such as him."

Drago gave him a dark look. "I'm the only one who can."

Krogan decided not to argue and looked at the army. "Now men, retreat to the West. His Majesty will clear the path for us!"

Hiccup looked at Drago. "I won't let you lay a hand on my ancestor."

"The only reason we got to this point because he failed to destroy me," Drago reminded him.

"Then I'll finish the job," he said as he finally undid the bandages on his left arm and then Clinton flames began to cover it and within the flames, Drago could see some strange markings which resembled a dragon.

'What is this magic power?' said Drago looking concerned. 'This blistering heat?'

"Let's do it," said Hiccup as he clenched his fist.

He then shot out towards Drago and then punched him in the face as hard as he could, he then spun around and struck again. He hit him with so much force that he was sent flying and skidded across the ground creating a new crevice before he was shot up into the air.

He however quickly recovered and fired an orb of death magic directly towards Hiccup, but he merely raised his blazing arm and burned away the spell much to Drago's surprise.

"My spell vanished as he burned it away?" Drago stared.

Hiccup then appeared directly in front of him and then slammed his fist right into his stomach. Using every ounce of strength he had he sent Drago flying once more and he skidded across the ground. Hiccup didn't give a chance to recover and began to pound him with blazing fist after blazing fist.

Drago attempted to block each and every single blow, but the power behind each strike was immense and eventually, he was not to the ground. Hiccup then began channelling his magic into a single fist hoping to finish this quickly.

"That's the way! Show him how it's done Hiccup!" Toothless cheered.

However, Drago uses this chance to get behind Hiccup's guard fired a spell directly towards him. Hiccup was able to move his face just in time, the spell did graze his chin which burned away the skin across the right side of his face leaving a nasty scar.

The two of them then slammed their fists against one another and began striking one another with immense speed and power. The soldiers could see why Drago insisted that they stay back because if they had gotten any closer they would have been caught in the crossfire as they danced around the arena striking one another.

The two of them then immediately jumped back, it was clear they were evenly matched which was a shock in itself.

"Very surprising, seems you've developed a new skill," Drago noted.

"My mentor Ingeel gave it to me," said Hiccup. "This is the last of his power, I've been holding it. I spent 10 months in training just so that I could release it now."

"The last of his power you say?"

"That's right, I have to make it count because once it's gone it'll never come back. Every last bit of Ingeel's determination in one shot."

Drago watched as the flames around Hiccup flair and he could have sworn that he saw Ingeel standing behind him. 'This power is the last will the dying, it may very well be the one power that can kill me.'

"Fire Dragon King Mode!" Hiccup roared at the top of his voice in the flames shot up towards the sky and somehow he managed to ignite the ground beneath their feet.

'He turned the ground to fire?' Drago stared as he looked around. "Incredible…"

"This is the end, Drago!" Hiccup yelled. "Goodbye!"

Drago was actually terrified upon seen the power that Hiccup possessed, the power to kill him.
