Chapter 26: Night Vision Undergrown
The riders were at the academy early in the morning for a training mission tomorrow. Fishlegs, the Thorston Twins, and Snotlout prayed that the training mission would be Mira's, because hers were easy. But sadly, it wasn't Mira's training mission, it was Astrid's.
"Okay, gang, over here. Tomorrow's training mission was actually Astrid's idea, so I will let her explain it." Hiccup said, gesturing Astrid up front.
The other teens, minus Mira, groan and mutter in anger. They didn't want Astrid to do the training missions. Astrid looks at them in confusion. "What?"
"Your training missions are so hard!" Fishlegs whines.
"They are not." Astrid defended.
Fishlegs hold up his bandaged hand. "Hand-to-Claw Combat?" Fishlegs stated. Meatlug gently licks Fishlegs bandaged hand, giving her a hug.
"Spine-Dodging?" Snotlout added, remembering that he was almost hit by one of Stormfly's spikes.
"Hot Lava-Swimming?" Tuffnut added as well.
"Tuff, we never did that." Mira said. "We actually did was climbing up a cliff."
"Yeah, but she should've, way better than Hand-to-Claw Combat." Tuff stated.
Astrid rolled her eyes as she points at the map. "Well, this mission is easy like Mira's. Dragon Island. You just have to go from this beach on the East side to this cave on the West side." Astrid explains.
The teens begin to think that doesn't seem too bad, as they walked over, but soon, irony came when Astrid added, "At night."
The teens, minus Mira and Hiccup, lets out annoyed groans.
"With no camping gear."
Again, another annoyed groan came from the four teens.
"And no dragons." Astrid added the last part as she walks away.
Fishlegs, the twins, and Snotlout are angry and annoyed by the idea.
"What?! That's crazy! What's the point?!" Snotlout exclaims.
Astrid turns to him. "To work on our stealth skills and our Wild Dragon Defense." She explains.
"Astrid's right. We all know how strong we are with our dragons, but we have to be able to survive and defend ourselves if we ever get separated from them." Hiccup added.
"I, for one, agree." Mira said. "I've been dealing being separated with my dragon and trying to survive by myself is kind of rusty, and maybe Astrid's training mission will help us."
Astrid grins and walks away. "Trust me. It'll be fun!" She said to the others as she heads out while the other teens think otherwise.
Later that night, the riders were at Dragon Island, Kishi and the other dragons stayed behind to watch over Mira's siblings and Sapphire's. The one who came to watch Mira was Sapphire and Rose. The gang came to the beach of Dragon Island with weapons and lanterns.
Hiccup announces to the riders. "Okay, one of us is gonna have to skip the drill and take the dragons to the cave on the other side of the island. That way, they won't try and help us."
With that said, a wild Nadder appeared out of nowhere and tries to attack, but Stormfly, Toothless, and Sapphire chased it away and protect their riders.
Hiccup gestured the scene. "Just like that. Ok! So, who's going to watch the dragons?" He looks at the riders.
Fishlegs, who wants to be safe, step forward. "I think the obvious choice is-"
He was cut off when Tuffnut butts in. "Me! I volunteer!" Tuff yelled out.
Fishlegs was shock as he tries to reason. "But-but I have way more dragon knowledge!"
Tuffnut scoffs. "Yeah, from a book! But I…I feel them." Tuff puts his hand on his heart. "In here. Wait, where is it? In…" He moves his hand to his stomach. "In here." Tuff rubs his stomach as it grumbles. "Yeah. In my stomach. Besides, I did say "Me" first!" He stated.
"I can't believe I'm saying this, but, uh, Tuffnut is right. Fishlegs, no one can argue with your dragon knowledge, but if Alvin attacks with wild dragons, we need to be able to face them. Any time of the day or night. On our own, without help." Hiccup said as he walks away.
Fishlegs sighs in disappointment. "I hate it when you make sense." He mutters.
Tuffnut chuckles and elbows Fishlegs gently. After the explanation, the riders say goodbye to their dragons for the night and assuring them that they will be fine.
"See you later, Stormfly." Astrid pats Stormfly gently.
"You stay tough." Snotlout said to Hookfang.
"Bye, Meatlug!" Fishlegs hugs Meatlug.
"I know you're really gonna miss us. We're gonna miss you, too." Ruffnut said to Barf and Belch.
"You two behave, alright?" Mira said to Sapphire and Rose.
As the riders headed out, Toothless watches Hiccup leave before he follows him. Hiccup saw this and stop his dragon. "No-no-no-no-no, Toothless. You have to go with Tuffnut. I can't believe I'm saying this either, but, uh, he's the boss." He said, a little annoyed by saying that Tuff is the boss.
"That's right!" Tuff exclaims. "You heard that! Boss-Man! Head Honcho. The Big Boss-Honcho Guy. The Honch-Boss. Hey, anybody know where this cave is?" Tuff said.
The other riders look at Tuffnut in disbelief, but soon stopped when Tuffnut said. "Just messing with you…or am I? Hahaha! Even I don't know." He laughed as he and the dragons leave.
The riders headed out to do their training mission while Hiccup reminds them what to do. "Remember, this is about stealth, not speed. It doesn't matter how fast you get there. What's important is how you handle a wild dragon if ever you come across one. Understand? Alright. Good luck, everybody. I'll see you back at the cave."
Hiccup looks back to see Fishlegs standing in the same spot. Fishlegs notice him and said. "What? I'm formulating a plan."
"Fishlegs, you can do this." Hiccup said as he walks to the forest.
Fishlegs sighs. "Aw man, I should've just stayed in my nice warm bed this morning, Meatlug peacefully licking my toes, but NO!"
"Move out, Fishlegs!" Hiccup called out.
"Don't rush me! I'm having a moment!" Fishlegs called back in frustration, and then his lantern goes out. Scared, he rushes after Hiccup and the others.
Back at the cave, the dragons are in comfortable spots to sleep, but Tuffnut decided to stay up all night. "Alright! Who's up for an all-nighter? You guys are gonna love my ghost stories."
Tuffnut's ghost stories aren't that scary, in fact, they're boring. They make dragons and human feel bored or fall asleep. Toothless can't stay around and sleep or hear stories. He must go out and find Hiccup. So, he tries to sneak out of the cave, but Tuffnut stops him.
"Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah, not so fast, Mr. Night Fury. Remember the mission! No dragon help, and that means you! Besides, I'm in charge." Tuffnut said.
Toothless growls at him annoyance, he turns and walks away, but not before he flicks Tuffnut against a stalactite with his tail, causing Tuffnut to get stuck. The dragons were amused by this when they watched Tuff on the stalactite.
"I KNEW that was coming!" Tuff lied as he was stuck on the stalactite. Feeling that he couldn't get down, Tuff asked the dragons for help. "L-Little help here? Help out your Boss-Honcho?"
And they did, well, Toothless did. The male Night Fury shoots a plasma blast near Tuffnut, unsticking him from the stalactite, but made him fall to ground with a loud. "OW!"
Meanwhile, Astrid was making her way across the island with ease, she has no trouble to survive since she's a born warrior. Until out of the corner, she comes across a Nadder.
"Ok, a wild Nadder, should be simple." Astrid said as she moves to the blind spot. "Move to the blind spot, and-" As Astrid was about to move away, the Nadder tries to block her. This cause Astrid to smirk. "Playing the spine game, huh?"
The wild Nadder tries to shoot her with its spines, but Astrid somersaults out of the way with ease. She brushed her bangs and smirks at the Nadded. "So, what do you want to do now?"
Seeing that it could not beat her, the Nadder decided to walk away, making Astrid smile as she continues the training mission.
To Snotlout, the young Jorgenson was making his way across the island, sword in hand. He jumps onto a large rock and was boasting about himself.
"Hya! Snotlout Jorgenson." He said as she jumps up a couple more rocks. "Hoo! Ha! Super-Viking." He then lays down on a fallen log. At home in the wilderness, and-"
Snotlout didn't finished as he falls off the log into the water below with a loud "AHHH!". After a few minutes, Snotlout climbs out of the water when he heard something. Looking up, he saw a flock of Terrible Terrors appearing out of some bushes.
Snotlout got out of the water as the Terrors come closer. "Alright! Bring it on, Wild Dragons! I'm ready for you!"
The Terrors were in front of him as they stared at the Jorgenson curiously. But instead of being gentle, Snotlout did the total opposite. "Ok, you want some? You want a piece of Snotlout?! Bring it on, you little-"
One of the Terrors growled at him and soon the Terrors attack, causing him to fall into the water again as he lets out another "AHHHH!".
On the other side of the forest, Ruffnut was trying to make her way to the other side when she came across a wild Monstrous Nightmare. Ruffnut froze in fear as the Monstrous Nightmare stalks towards her.
Ruff tries to remember about the Monstrous Nightmare. "Monstrous Nightmares, fast in a straight line…Bad at turns!" Ruff mutters to herself as the Nightmare stalks towards her. "He's probably just as afraid of me as I am of him, right?" She said to herself fearfully, but when the Nightmare came close, she panicked. "Nope! I'm definitely more afraid!" She said as she drops her weapon and lantern and made a run for it.
Ruffnut tries to run away from the Nightmare, the Stocker Class Dragon was chasing her from behind before releasing his fire, which she dodged. Ruffnut runs around a tree while yelling. "LEFT! LEFT!"
But it only made her come back to the Nightmare, who is standing still. Ruffnut She runs around the same tree the other way while yelling. "RIGHT! RIGHT!"
But it made her come back to the Nightmare once again. "It's like he's inside my head!" Ruffnut yells as she runs away while the Nightmare just watched her run away.
To Fishlegs, Ingerman was walking through the woods, muttering and mumbling in annoyance because Atsrid gave them a hard training mission. "Cold and miserable and-" Fishlegs was cut off when he heard the bushes rustle, causing him to jump in fear. "What was that?! Who's there?!" He almost screamed.
He looks around some more and reluctantly continues while muttering sarcastically and in annoyance. "Thanks, Astrid. My death will be on your hands."
But Fishlegs didn't know that he just walked passed a Typhoomerang, which shows itself behind Fishlegs and made the Ingerman scream in fear, causing him to run away in fright.
Meanwhile, Mira was walking through the forest with her axe behind her as she holds her lantern. Mira made sure to be aware in her surroundings. Then she heard something from behind, she quickly turns around to find nothing. Confused, Mira turns back and continuous walking, but stops again when she heard something following her. Mira turns again to find nothing, when she turns back around, she almost stumbled when she saw a small Terror like dragon on the ground, looking at her.
Mira blinks and the dragon copies her, she slowly moves away from the dragon and headed to the direction that she needs to go. The dragon watched her leave and decided to follow her, Mira had to ignore the dragon as she made her way to the destination. The dragon continued following Mira on her journey to the west side. The dragon continuous following her, until it stops when Mira stopped. Sighing, Mira turns to the dragon. She kneels-down at the dragon who walked towards her and outstretches her hand.
"Hello there." Mira smiles at the dragon.
The dragon tilts its head before opening its jaws, and did something that shock Mira, it spoke using her voice. "Hello there."
Mira gasps in shock as she stood up quickly. The dragon spoked with her voice! But how?! That's when, Mira remembered Kishi telling her about a dragon called Mimic Dragon. It's a Mystery Class type of dragon found on warmer islands. They have colored feathers instead of scales. And this is Mimic Dragon is a female since females have yellow eyes and males have brown eyes.
Mira smiles gently at the dragon and gently strokes it, earning happy purrs. "Aren't you a copycat?"
"Copycat. Copycat. Copycat." The Mimic Dragon repeated by using Mira's voice.
Mira then had an idea. "And that's what's I'm going to call you, Copycat." Mira said. "Come on, let's show you to the others." Mira started walking, followed by Copycat, walking beside her happily.
Somewhere else, two male Gronckles were fighting each other, trying established dominance, when some quartzes were thrown out of nowhere and they went towards the quartz before munching them happily. Hiccup walks out of the corner and smiles at his plan.
"Quartz, you guys are so predictable." He said then Hiccup looks out over the valley and sees a campfire from a distance. This was not part of the training, it's about stealth, not camping.
"Are you-Campfire?! Really?! How is this stealthy?" Hiccup begins to walk towards the campfire.
Back to the cave, Tuffnut was telling his 'scary' story to the dragons, who were falling asleep by the story. Rose was already asleep as Tuff continuous his story. Tuffnut was making 'scary' movements to make the mood scary.
"Scratch, SCRATCH! Who stole my golden hook?! SCRATCH, SCRATCH! And you turn around and he says: YOU DID!" He points to Meatlug, who just stared at him blankly. All the dragons seem unimpressed by Tuff's story. They just want this night to be over.
Tuffnut rubs the back of his neck. "Ooh…tough cave." He mutters out.
Toothless, who was awake, tries to sneak out again, but when he looks back for a bit, he turns and found Tuffnut in front of him. Toothless lets out a yelp in surprise to see him as the Thorston stops him once again.
"Hey Hey! Going somewhere?" Tuff asked sternly, causing Toothless to grumble and turns back in annoyance.
"Look, I get it. You're worried about your other half. I feel your pain. Well…not really." Tuff explains while the dragons listened in annoyance or in boredom. "I kind of like it when Ruffnut's in imminent danger. One time she was on fire and I just watched for a while. Anyway, you can beat me with your tail. You can barbeque me with a Plasma Blast! You can lightly massage my shoulders and neck. You really could! I need it, BUT I will not shirk my responsibility to the-" He was cut off when he saw Toothless was asleep along with the rest of the dragons.
"Sleeping?! You're all sleeping. Huh. Not a bad idea!" Tuff said as he begins to fall asleep while snoring.
Hiccup reached to the campsite to find out who cause the campfire. He could only guess it would be Snotlout, Fishlegs, or the twins. It couldn't be Snotlout because he uses Hookfang to make the fire, even though Hookfang would chase Snotlout around for telling him what to do. It couldn't Fishlegs because he need some help. And it most certainly wasn't the twins because they would cause a whole forest fire if they try to make a simple campfire. But, he has to know why there's a campfire.
"Ok, come on out. Show yourself, Snotlout." Hiccup guess it was Snotlout. "And I will go easy on you-" Hiccup was cut off when he unexpectedly tackled by someone. Hiccup looks up to see who tackled him, and it made his eyes widen in shock and horror to see non-other than Edgar the Insane, Leader of the Insanity.
"Edgar!" Hiccup exclaims in shock.
Edgar looks down at Hiccup and gave him a glare as he picks up Hiccup. "Hiccup Haddock, I'm surprise you're alive." He said coldly.
"Uhh, last time I checked." Hiccup laughs awkwardly. "So, uh, haven't seen you since-"
"Since you saved me from that dragon attack back on Berk and you were able to fiught off a Night Fury.
Edgar was little impressed by Hiccup's heroics. Hiccup maybe scrawny and weak, but he got to admit, Hiccup got some fighting spirit. And this made Hiccup feel even more awkward.
"Oh. Right. Yes, the dragon attack."
Edgar unsheathes his sword and admires at it. "You show some courage, Haddock, I was…impressed by it. You risk your life to save mine and stayed to fight the Night Fury and-" Edgar hesitates mid-sentence and he turns on Hiccup suspiciously, pointing towards him with his sword. "So…what are you doing here?"
Hiccup takes a step back and mutters to himself. "What am I doing here?"
Edgar continues to point his sword in Hiccup's face. "Don't answer that! I know EXACTLY what you're doing here."
Hiccup looks guilty, scared, and nervous. "Uh, you-you do?"
"Oh, yes, I do. You're here for the same reason I am, Haddock. You're here to hunt dragons." Edgar said as he sheeted his sword.
Hiccup relaxes, looking relieved and plays along. "Ok! You got me! That's what I am here for, all by myself!"
Edgar gets in Hiccup's face, making Hiccup back up again. "So, whatever happened to that Night Fury, Haddock?" Edgar asked suspiciously.
Hiccup gulps a bit. "Oh yeah, well, just. Bad news, uh…it got away." He lied.
Edgar chuckles darkly as he grabs Hiccup's shoulders and was looking delighted. "That is a great news!" Edgar grins evily.
Hiccup looks at Edgar is disbelief and shock. "It is?!"
Edgar nods and throws his arm around Hiccup. "Yes! You and I are going to hunt "the unholy offspring of lightning and death itself". We are going to take down that Night Fury once and for all!
Hiccup was nervous and answered weakly. "Uhh…ok?"
Edgar laughs evilly as it echoes through the island. Later, Hiccup and Edgar were both sitting on a log by the fire. Edgar was sharpening his sword in his hands, making it sharp for slicing any dragons' heads off.
"Hiccup, ever since I left Berk, I haven't been able to stop thinking about you and that Night Fury."
Hiccup looks slightly uncomfortable and nervous. "Well that's…kinda strange. Well, I'm flattered and disturbed.
"You and that Night Fury, it's like you knew that dragon. As if you were inside its head, rattling its cage, and making it look weak." Edgar said. "Do you know the reason why I'm hunting down dragons?"
"Uuuhhh…to have them as your trophies?" Hiccup guessed nervously.
"Well, that, and to know more about dragons, too. So, I came here, and I learned about them one by one." Edgar pulls out a Nadder spine to show Hiccup. "The Deadly Nadder. Got this spine in the leg."
Edgar throws the Nadder spine away and points to a dragon skull stuck on an upright spear. "The Monstrous Nightmare." Hiccup looks angry until Edgar pulls out a leg of meat. "And the Gronckle-"
Hiccup looks disgusted and shock. "Uhh, I-I-is that?!"
Edgar looks at the meat and said. "No, it's…yak. Anyway, those big boys are quicker than you'd think-"
They hear a roar in the distance. Edgar drops the yak drumstick and jumps up from the log, picking up his crossbow and aiming it at any moving target, ready for battle.
Hiccup looks at the crossbow in surprise. "Woah…nice crossbow."
Edgar smirks. "My hunting weapon of choice and you carry…" Edgar turns back to Hiccup and frowns at his lack of weaponry. "…a shield?"
Hiccup puts his hand on his shield. "Yeah, Yeah, just-just a shield. Just a plain old shield." Hiccup said, not telling him that his shield has some special features.
Edgar rolled his eyes. "I the field of battle, never hide in combat." Edgar said before letting out a battle cry, causing Hiccup to jump, before turning back to the woods with his crossbow again.
"Yeah…so, just how long have you been out here, Edgar?"
Edgar glanced at him with his crossbow ready. "Months, Haddock, months. So, keep your eyes in front and be ready for anything." Edgar said seriously.
Hiccup gulps and looks around before looking at Edgar. "Hey, maybe you should take a little break."
"I won't rest until I take out that Night Fury. I know it's on this island, Haddock. I can feel it!" Edgar said as he turns to Hiccup. "And YOU are going to help me find it, so I can have his head!"
And with that said, Edgar and Hiccup moved out, and are now "on the hunt", walking across Dragon Island together.
Edgar paused and whispers. "Shh! That could be him!" He could tell there was something coming.
Hiccup shook his head. "No, it sounds too big."
A dragon roars close by. Edgar grabs Hiccup and pulls him behind cover as a Monstrous Nightmare appears, roaring and breathing fire. Once the dragon fly past, Edgar and Hiccup step out into the open again.
Edgar whispers to Hiccup. "You're right. Let's keep going, I'm not wasting my arrows on an easy prey." He said as he and Hiccup moves out.
Back to the cave, where Tuffnut and the dragons are sleeping. Tuffnut was talking in his sleep, "Give it back. It's my blanket." As Tuffnut continues snoring, Toothless woke up by a roar, looking at the entrance, he saw Monstrous Nightmare flying past the cave, probably the same one Edgar and Hiccup saw earlier. Toothless became alert and stood up and wakes up the rest of the dragons. The dragons got on their feet, and they escape the cave while Tuffnut was still asleep. As they left about ten seconds, a rock falls from the cave roof and lands near Tuffnut, causing him to wake up.
Tuffnut quickly stands up and looks around the cave. "What a great drea-What?!" Tuffnut realizes the dragons are gone and looks around angrily.
"Oh really?! That's how you're gonna do me?! I don't think so ..." He runs out of the cave with his lantern. "Oh, it's on, dragons. It is SO on."
Back to Hiccup and Edgar, who are still hunting dragons, searches for the Night Fury aka Toothless. Then they heard something, Edgar grabs Hiccup and pulls him behind a rock.
"Sh-Sh-Sh! Listen! Smaller this time. Could be the Night Fury!" Edgar readied his crossbow.
Hiccup listens and mutters. "That actually sounds more like a wild yak to me."
Edgar points his crossbow towards a shaking bush, laughing to himself. Hiccup prepares to take action against Edgar and his crossbow, but instead of a dragon, it was Snotlout, who steps out of the bushes. Edgar looks annoyed and disappointed that it wasn't a Night Fury as he lowered his crossbow.
Hiccup was relief to see it was only Snotlout. "Ehh, close enough." He mutters.
They leave their position behind the rock, causing Snotlout to see them and approaches them thankfully.
"Hiccup! Woah, am I glad to see you! You would not BELIEVE what I've been through! This place is CRAWLING with wild dragons!" Snotlout said happily.
"Yep. It's called "Dragon Island", Snotlout." Hiccup said as he thinks of a plan to get the dragons and the riders out of here.
Snotlout suddenly notices Edgar, who is standing behind Hiccup, looking bored and annoyed. "Edgar the Insane! What are YOU doing here?"
"I should ask the same thing, Jorgenson." Edgar said angrily before looking at Hiccup. "I hought you said you were here alone."
Hiccup had to play along. "I thought I was!" Hiccup turns to Snotlout, hoping he could understand the signal he was going to give him. "Snotlout, why you were supposed to STAY at base camp!" Hiccup pretended to scold him.
Snotlout was confused. "Huh?!"
"While I am hunting dragons here in the forest…"
Snotlout was looking even more confused. "You're doing WHAT in the WHERE?!"
Edgar walks away in boredom. "Not the sharpest arrow in the quiver, is he?"
"Not even close." Hiccup mutters as he and Snotlout watch Edgar walking away. When Edgar was out of range, Hiccup turns back to Snotlout. "Play along! We cannot let Edgar know about our dragons! He'll try to take them home and mount them on his wall!" He said as he follows Edgar.
Snotlout realizes what Hiccup meant as he follows him in shock. "Wait…you mean?"
Tuffnut was is still looking for the lost dragons. If the others find out he lost them, he won't hear the end of it. Tuffnut spies some dragon tracks on the ground and smiles.
"Huh, Zippleback tracks."
Tuff follows the tracks and saw a sleeping Zippleback. Thinking it was Barf and Belch, he walks up to the sleeping Zippleback and kicks it, which woke the two-headed dragon up and galred at him.
"GOTCHA!" Tuff laughs. "Now, back to the cave-Whaaat?!" He realizes the Zippleback is not his dragon, but a wild one, since it's not wearing a saddle. Tuff begins to back off.
"I thought, uh…I thought you were someone else." He said, but the wild dragon continuous glaring at him. Then Tuffnut made a run for it, but the Zippleback chases after him and tries to shoot him with its gas and flames.
"Look, it's a simple misunderstanding." Tuff scream as he was nearly blown to bits. Tuffnut runs around a tree and the Zippleback tries to follow, but it got stuck with one head on either side of the tree.
Tuffnut stops and looks at the dragon before laughing happily. "Dragon Trainer: 1, Wild Zippleback: 0." But the Zippleback fires at him again which caused him to yell in fear and runs away, and continuous searching for the dragons, not knowing that they were close on finding their dragons.
Meanwhile, Fishlegs was still making his way across the island, jumping at anything that moves. He begins to walk backwards, stepping away from something that might be lurking in the dark, and ends up stepping back into Snotlout, who also happens to be walking backwards. They both scream at each other for a couple of seconds before Hiccup interrupts their scream off.
"Fishlegs, would ya look?! It's Edgar! Who-Who is also out hunting dragons, just like us." Hiccup said, trying to tell Fishlegs to play along.
Snotlout jumps in enthusiastically and placed both his arms around Fishlegs and Hiccup. "YES! We are Dragon Hunters…out hunting dragons!"
Edgar looks at them in confusion. "Haddock, your definition of alone and mine, are very different. But perhaps, this one can help us." He said, pointing his crossbow at him, making Fishlegs whimpers in fear.
Snotlout continues to play along, but in a stupid way. "Yes! He'll help us HUNT dragons, cause THAT'S what we are doing! Hunting…"
"Dragons." Hiccup added, trying to signal Fishlegs to play along.
Luckily, Fishlegs understood. "Ok. Got it." He whispers.
Just then, something rustles in the bushes and they hold their position. While doing that, Astrid appears and puts her hand on Snotlout's, motioning for him to be quiet. Instead, Snotlout puts his hand on hers. Snotlout stares at Astrid in delight, but the Hofferson girl punches Snotlout in the face with his own fist and somersaults back into the bushes.
Edgar and Hiccup are expecting that it's gonna be one of the Riders again behind the rustling bushes, but to their surprise, it was actually Toothless when he fired his plasma blast, nearly hitting Edgar. Edgar finally spots the Night Fury in joy, and thanks Hiccup for leading him right to the dragon. Edgar has Toothless in his crossbow's sights, He was about to shoot Toothless, until a group of Terrible Terrors distract him, and unintentionally fires, missing Toothless in the process. While blinded by the Terrors, Hiccup signals Toothless to flee, and he did.
Edgar gets rid of the Terrors, as they flew away, and Astrid walks up to Edgar, pretending to be angry.
"What's wrong with you?! I almost had those Terrible Terrors. They were right in my hands!"
Edgar scoffs at Astrid. "Terrors are nothing, hunting a Night Fury is better." Edgar turns back to Hiccup. "Did you leave anyone back on Berk?!"
Hiccup laughs awkwardly as Edgar walks away. "Very funny, Edgar." Hiccup said awkwardly.
Astrid speaks to Hiccup in a low voice. "Did he say…hunting a Night Fury?"
Hiccup whispers to her, "Yep. That's exactly what he said
"But Toothless is-"
"I know, and if he's loose, then so are the other dragons. You guys need to find Ruff and Tuff, grab your dragons, and get out of here." Hiccup said.
The other riders look uncertainly around at each other, thinking it would be a bad idea to leave Hiccup with Edgar.
"Don't worry. Edgar won't hurt me…yet."
Edgar appears behind Hiccup and throws his arm around him. "Come, Haddock, while the dragon trail is still fresh!" He said.
Hiccup turns to the other riders and lied. "I can't hunt with an entourage. Go back to Berk. Leave us to our business!"
As Edgar steers him away and disappeared through the undergrowth, Snotlout started complaining. "That's just great! How are we supposed to find our dragons?!"
Fishlegs looks behind Snotlout and said. "Actually, it shouldn't be that hard."
Snotlout didn't understand until he felt a steam blew behind him. Turning around, he and the others saw their dragons, even Mira with Copycat. Mira was riding on Sapphire with Copycat perched on her shoulder.
"Mira? How did you find our dragons?" Fishlegs asked.
"They actually found me and Copycat." Mira gestured the Mimic Dragon on her shoulder. "I was heading towards the location when they found us."
Fishlegs gasps at Copycat. "Is that a Mimic Dragon?" He asked excitingly.
"Yes, her name is Copycat."
"Copycat. Copycat. Copycat." Copycat repeated by using Mira's voice.
"Incredible!" Fishlegs awed.
"We'll talk about it later, right now, let's find the twins." Astrid said.
Speaking of the twins, Tuffnut was still looking for the dragons. He finally finds another Zippleback. He thinks it's another wild one, this Zippleback is actually Barf and Belch, sleeping on the ground. So, Tuff hides behind a tree, and then he sneaks forward.
"And the Tuffnut sneaks up on the Zippleback to teach him a lesson." He whispers to himself.
Tuffnut goes to scare Belch, but instead is kicked by Ruffnut, who snuck up on him from behind.
"OW!" Tuff yelled in pain.
"What are you doing out here?!" Ruff asked angrily.
Tuffnut rubs his behind and thinks of an excuse. "Uhh, I'm looking for you! I thought you would be lost, so I came to save you."
Ruffnut rolled her eyes. "No! But what are Barf and Belch doing here?" She gestured their dragon, who's heads were both on either side of Tuffnut's.
Tuffnut glanced at them before lieing. "Uh, they, uh…they were both hungry, for outdoor food…" Ruff didn't believe him because she knows that he let them out with the other dragons. "Agh, the dragons ran away! You happy?!" He exclaims.
"No, I'm not happy. What, d'you tell 'em your stupid scary stories?!" Ruff glares at him.
"No…Maybe…Not…Yes." Tuff mutters.
Ruffnut turns around and starts walking. "Come on! Let's find the others!"
"No need to." Mira's voice said. The twins turned and saw the others, except for Hiccup and Edgar, as they stepped forward from the darkness.
"Could you guys argue any louder?" Astrid whispers harshly.
Tuffnut, being the stupid one, yelled. "SURE, YEAH, BUT WHY WOULD-" Before he could finish Astrid shoves her hand over Tuffnut's mouth to shush him. "Shhh!"
Ruffnut joins in, "SHE DIDN'T LEARN ANY-" Then Rose appeared beside her and uses her paralyzing sting to freeze her for a while. Astrid rolls her eyes at the twins and began to worry about Hiccup being with Edgar.
Meanwhile, Toothless was chased relentlessly, he needs to save Hiccup from Edgar and get the heck out of the island. However, Edgar suddenly fires an arrow with flames towards the sky. Hiccup wonders why he did that. Turns out, Edgar has brought a fleet of Insanity warriors that can help them with their hunt and they were waiting for Edgar's orders just out in sea, and they respond back with Edgar's rendezvous signal with hundreds of flamed arrows at their location. Hiccup then becomes worried that Edgar and his men will be able to capture Toothless, as Toothless is no match for the Insanity Armada. Edgar plans to drive out the Night Fury towards the Insanities' field of vision. Hiccup comments it's not very fair or sporty, but Edgar doesn't care as he only wants the dragon's head as a trophy.
Hiccup had to put a stop to this and this means he has to reveal the big secret. Beofre Edgar could harm Toothless, Hiccup called to Toothless with his dragon call and it cause Edgar to be shock that he can tame a dragon. Edgar was furious because Berk lost its interest in killing dragons and attacked Hiccup and Toothless. The battle took long since Edgar wasn't an easy warrior to deal with. But Toothless then flies forward and blasts the sword out of Edgar's hands. Unarmed and angered, Edgar had no choice but to retreat, only to be blasted off of a cliff by Toothless. However, he lands near the Insanity Armada and runs to them for his safety while calling out.
"DRAGON ATTACK! DRAGON ATTACK!"
Hiccup turns to see that the other Dragon Riders are now joining him. Ruff was still paralyzed since the Speed Stinger venom hasn't wear off yet, and Belch had to be extra careful.
"We better go now. His men are on the way." Hiccup said.
"Come on, we can take them!" Snotlout said, readying Hookfang to attack.
Hiccup stops him. "Not today. Edgar will be back, and when he is, we'll be ready.
Hiccup and Toothless leave to join the other Riders, they are going to tell Stoick about this and be high alert.
Edgar was in one of the Insanity's ships, looking enraged and is joined by other Insanities. He now knows that Berk's young warriors ride dragons. And is now going to war with him and his kin.
"You may won the battle, Haddock, but you won't win the war.
Elsewhere in the sky, Hiccup and the other Dragons Riders are seen flying off into the sunrise. Hiccup looks back at Dragon Island and remembers his confrontation with Edgar, now concerned about the consequences that will follow.
On a calm beautiful morning, Berk's residents were ready to do their job and make sure that their defenses are in high alert. When the riders told Stoick about Edgar, the chief was in high alert as he made sure that they are ready for Edgar's attack. But for now, everyone will do their daily work in peace…well almost. Today is going to be a trill of a ride, but now there's someone they have to get from the dock. A figure was running away from the villagers. Stoick was determine to cath it with the others.
"Cut him off! Make sure he doesn't escape!" Stoick ordered
Mira and Sapphire were chasing the figure through the stairs as it made its way to the other side.
"Hiccup! He's going to you!" Mira called out.
Hiccup and Toothless blocked the figure's way out, but it went to the other side to the village. "I didn't think he could move that fast." Hiccup said as the figure made its way to village, causing some roosters to cluck in surprise. "Astrid! He's headed your way!"
Above the sky were Astrid and Stormfly, the two saw the figure making a run for it. "On it! Stormfly, spine shot." Astrid told Stormfly.
Stormfly obeyed and fires her spines at the ground, blocking the figure's escape. The figure was actually Gobber, he was holding an axe on his good hand and was looking angry.
"I won't do it, Stoick, and you can't make me!" Gobber yelled as Mira, Astrid, Hiccup, Stoick, and their dragons surrounded him. "None of you can make me."
"Keep him surrounded!" Stoick ordered.
"A Viking is supposed to smell this way! It's a badge of honor!" He yelled with pride.
Then a Terror appeared on from behind him and sniffs at Gobber. It pulled away and cringed at the horrible scent of Gobber and dizzily flies away, but only got hit by a pole.
Turns out, it was Gobber's bath day, he hasn't bathed for weeks. His bad smell made everyone annoyed, even the dragons! The Berk's dragons had flown away to Dragon Island to be away from Gobber's bad smell. Mira's dragons, minus Sapphire, left too. They couldn't stand the stench anymore and left. Karma and Kishi stayed with the humans to help catch Gobber while Warfire watched the dragons. Mira and Sapphire's siblings are with Gothi along with Liz, Seasons, Lily, and Aqua. They can't go because they're sisters are there while Liz, Seasons, and Lily wanted to stay close to their 'mother' Mira and watching Gobber being chased by the whole village for their entertainment. Giving Gobber a bath was the hardest thing to do in the village because the blacksmith hates baths. He would try to avoid it and hide for his life. They this for years because Gobber is stubborn as a yak.
Back to give Gobber a bath, Fishlegs was pulling the bucket of water out of the well, Meatlug was with him as he pulls the rope.
"Hurry! We've gotta get that tub filled. So, we can give Gobber his bath." He said to Meatlug. The riders and the dragons made sure Gobber doesn't escape.
"It's for your own good, Gobber." Stoick said to Gobber sternly.
"Actually, it's for the good of the town." Hiccup added, all the villagers were getting annoyed and angry by Gobber's bad smell and they want him to take a bath, now.
"Get in the tub!" Stoick ordered sternly.
Snotlout and Hookfang appear from behind Gobber. "Hookfang, toss him in the tub." Snotlout ordered.
Instead of listening to his rider, Hookfang tosses Snotlout to the tub, casuing him to scream as he crashes in the tub with a groan. When he got up, he glares at the smirking Hookfang. "Every. Single. Time! Doesn't this get old for you?!" Snotlout exclaims to his dragon, who just snickered at him. Hiccup rolled his eyes as he made signals to Astrid and Toothless, they understood and readied themselves. Toothless sneaks behind Gobber as he was busy telling Stoick that he would never take a bath.
"I won't do it, Stoick!" Gobber said.
As Gobber was distracted, Hiccup gave the signal to Astrid. "Now, Astrid!"
Astrid made Stormfly to fly up, causing Gobber to look at them. Distracted, Toothless sneaks under Gobber and tosses him to the tub, Gobber lands on the tub and Stoick marched towards Gobber and holds him down, preventing hom from escaping.
"Fishlegs! Soap and water!" Stoick ordered. Meatlug zooms towards them with Fishlegs, who was carrying the bucket, and dunks the bucket to Gobber, but only a drop of water came from it, making Gobber sigh in relief. The others, minus Gobber, looked at it in disbelief.
"You're gonna have to do better than that, son." Stoick said to Fishlegs.
"I can't, sir, the well, it's run dry." Fishlegs said to Stoick, who became surprise to hear that news. So, he and Hiccup check the well, Stoick pulls a bucket from the well and find it empty.
"Empty." Hiccup mutters in shock.
"We just dug that well two summers ago." Stoick said.
"Water doesn't just disappear." Hiccup said, looking at the well. "There has to be a reason."
Stoick throws the bucket away and sighs. "We'll have to dig a new well and until it's done, we'll have to ration water. Which means…"
Gobber came from behind with a grin on his face and placed his hand on Hiccup. "No more baths!" Gobber said happily. Hiccup sniffs at Gobber's hand and almost puck by his horrible smell, but Gobber didn't notice it. "Always a silver lining."
The Riders and their dragons were at the academy, Hiccup was explaining the plan to them about the water problem. Kishi came to help because he wants Gobber to take a bath now.
"Okay, we need to figure out a way to keep berk supplied with water until a new well can be dug." Hiccup said to the riders as he each give jobs for them. "Ruff, tuff, strap on the washtub and head to Lars Lake to fill it."
"Okay, but that thing's pretty big." Tuff said. "I mean, it's bigger than Ruff's butt." Tuff points at Ruff, who checks her behind. "It could take a while, a week or two." He stated, but he didn't know that Ruff got mad and gave him a punch that sends him flying across the room.
"Well, I was assuming you would use your dragon." Hiccup stated, referring to Barf and Belch. Their dragon can carry the tub of water for Gobber to take his bath.
Tuff slowly stands up, recovering from the blow that his sister gave him. "Why would you think that?" Tuff asked stupidly.
"Because…okay, Kishi, can you please help the twins with the tub?" Hiccup asked Kishi.
Kishi nodded. "Sure thing." He said.
Hiccup smiles in relief before turning to Mira, Astrid, Snotlout. "Moving on, Astrid, Mira, Snotlout, head to the mountain streams, and fill as many canteens as you can." He said. The Cove was there, and it has refreshing cool water.
Snotlout smirks as he looks at the two pretty girls, liking the idea. "Mountain streams, romantic." Snotlout was about to put his arms on Mira and Astrid until the Hofferson girl grabs him and tosses Snotlout half away across the room, causing him to let out a loud "OW!"
Hiccup turns to Fishlegs. "Fishlegs, Meatlug, you're going to help me figure out what happened inside that well." He said.
Fishlegs was nervous with the idea. "Um, you may not know this, but Meatlug and I don't do well in tight spaces." Fishlegs said, trying to get himself out of this job, but Hiccup gave him the look and Fishlegs has to follow. So, the riders went to their jobs, Kishi has to help the twins with the tub of water, Mira, Astrid, and Snotlout went to mountain stream to collect water. And Hiccup and Fishlegs investigate the well. Let's go to the cove, Astrid, Mira, and Snotlout were collecting the water for the villagers, but Snotlout has an idea that was 'genius'.
"You know, girls, I've been thinking." Snotlout starts, placing canteens in the basket.
"We talked about you thinking, Snotlout." Astrid said as she helps Mira carry the basket of canteen to Sapphire. "It's not good for anyone."
"Agreed." Mira said, earning a grin from Astrid.
Snotlout ignores that and continued his plans. "Who says we have to give this water away?"
Mira and Astrid glanced at each other, not lining where this is going. "What are you talking about?" Astrid asked.
"It's simple supply and demand, follow me here." Snotlout said.
"No." Mira and Astrid said unison as they ready the next canteens.
Snotlout didn't listen as he said plan. "The people of berk are parched, desperate for fresh water. And who's got all the water, girls? Snotlout, that's who. Ha Ha! I'm gonna make a fortune." He grins at his idea.
Mira and Astrid gave Snotlout a disbelief look. They think his plan was stupid, which it is. "You're gonna charge people for water." Astrid said. "That's the dumbest thing I ever heard!"
"And selfish." Mira added. "We're in a water crisis here, Snotlout, we don't charge people with water."
"Is it? Ha. Do whatever you want, just don't ask me to cut you in later." Snotlout said, causing Astrid to roll her eyes and Mira shaking her head.
Meanwhile, at the village's empty well, Meatlug flying overhead, helping to lower Hiccup down the well, so he can see why it was dried up. Fishlegs was guiding her to be careful on lowering Hiccup. Toothless was worried for his rider as he constantly checking on the well, letting out a worried rumble.
"That's it, girl, just keep it steady." Fishlegs said to Meatlug.
Hiccup was in the well as he was being lowered by Meatlug. "Lower. Keep going, just a little more…okay. Hold it right there!" Hiccup called. As he stopped, Hiccup began his investigation. "The water level was way up here. And it's still wet.
He found that the water level was far from dry and empty, as the walls are still wet, but somehow it disappeared. Hiccup then grab a piece of rock from the well and throws it down to check if there's any more water but hears no splash. Wanting to know what happen, he called out to Fishlegs.
"Fishlegs, get me all the way down!"
Fishlegs was kind of nervous about the idea. "Are you sure? It looks awfully dark and scary down there."
"Fishlegs!"
"Okay! Take him down, girl." Fishlegs said to Meatlug. Toothless was nervous as he watched from the well.
While Hiccup was being lowered gently, Meatlug spots a pile of rocks and suddenly changes her mind and decides to eat them. The pulling of the rope disorients Hiccup, Fishlegs tried to stop Meatlug, until the rope snaps, causing Hiccup to fall down the well, while Meatlug crashes to rocks. Toothless became shock as he quickly goes after him, leaving Fishlegs to worry about what would happen.
Hiccup crashed bellow the well, he was fine, but as he stood up, he heard Toothless roar coming from the well as the Night Fury crashes in. Hiccup checks his dragon if he was okay, since Toothless couldn't fly without him.
"Toothless, you okay?" Hiccup asked his dragon, earning a lick from Toothless.
"Hiccup! Hiccup!" They heard Stoick's voice from above.
They look up at hole and Hiccup called to his dad. "We're okay, dad!"
"Can you fly back up?" Stoick called from above.
"No, it's too narrow." Hiccup said.
"Someone get me a rope. I'm coming down after you, son." Stoick said.
"Dad, don't, then all three of us will just be stuck down here." Hiccup said as he picks up his lantern.
"Well, just stay right there Until I can think of a way to bring you both up."
"We're fine. The water had to go somewhere." Hiccup said. "Besides, I have Toothless with me. We'll find another way out."
"He makes an excellent point, sir." Fishlegs said as he begins his explanation. "The Night Fury has an uncanny ability to navigate…" Fishlegs didn't finished when Stoick gave him the look. "…And this is clearly none of my business."
"Wait." They heard Hiccup from bellow. "I-I think I found something. It looks like…a tunnel!"
"Well, just be careful down there, son. We'll be standing by if you need us." Stoick said.
Hiccup understood as he and Toothless searched through the tunnels. "Okay, bud, what do you say we find out where this lead? Okay, uh This way." Then Hiccup has a feeling that they're not alone and Toothless hears brief noises. "I don't know about you, But I get the distinct feeling we are not alone down here."
They continued walking until they find themselves inside another cavern. Hiccup stepped something and saw that it was an eggshell. Looking around the cavern, they spotted dozens of dragon eggshells. Turns out, they were Whispering Death eggs. They also spot a crate that has the Outcast symbol imprinted on it and spot a very large tunnel. And Hiccup doesn't wanna know who made that.
Meanwhile, Snotlout selfishly sells the water canteens to innocent 'thirsty' Vikings. Astrid and Mira were there with their dragons, giving water for the ones who needed it, and they were annoyed because Snotlout was being selfish to the Vikings.
"We're going to put a stop to this, aren't we?" Mira asked Astrid.
"Oh, yeah." Astrid said with a nod as they went over to Snotlout.
"That's it, keep the line moving. One bucket each. Water, water, water, water, water, water! Get your Snotlout's mountain fresh water here." Snotlout said as he trades his water for a chicken by a Viking woman. "Ha! This is too easy."
Astrid and Mira came to him as he gave the two girls a smug look. "Who's dumb now? The guy with the big cart full of loot or the girls with the big mouths full of hot air?"
"You're taking advantage of innocent people." Astrid said with her arms cross.
"That's low, even for you." Mira added.
"Correction, innocent thirsty people." Snotlout corrected.
"This is not what Hiccup had in mind, Snotlout." Astrid said.
"We're suppose to give the water, not selling them." Mira added.
"Yeah? Well, that's what makes him Hiccup and me, Snotlout." Snotlout chuckles.
"Ha, that's just the tip of the iceberg. Trust me." Astrid said as she steals three of his water canteens and tosses it to some of the Vikings for free, they caught them and thanked Astrid happily.
"Hey! You're cutting into my profits." Snotlout yelled angrily.
Astrid was about to punch him but stops when she saw someone behind him. She smirks as she crosses her arms and Mira made a surprise look on her face. Snotlout notices their reactions and asked. "What's your problems?"
Then he felt a huff behind him. Snotlout froze as he slowly turns around and became pale when his face meets with Karma's. Karma came to the village to get the little ones some water. But the well was empty, but when she heard Snotlout 'giving' water, she decided that the kids should get water from him because he can't say no to her, nobody say no to her and lives to tell the tale, except for Mira and Warfire.
Karma looks at the water canteens that are in the basket and to Snotlout with a snort. Snotlout saw this and points at the water canteens with her snout.
"Oh! You want some water? O-okay, take it, take them all, they're on the house." Snotlout said fearfully as he gives her the basket of canteens. Karma gave him a blank look as she turns her head to the little ones and snorted while gesturing the canteens with her head. Joe and Jon slide off her and went over the canteens before getting many canteens. The boys gave some to Liz, Seasons, and Lily while giving the others to the rest of the villagers. Snotlout wanted to stop them but Karma was giving him a deadly glare which made him froze in place with a nervous smile on his face.
Astrid smirks in amusement as Mira's brothers give away free waters to the villagers while Karma keeps Snotlout in his place. She so loves this Reaper Fury. Mira, on the other hand, was wondering what Hiccup was taking so long.
Hiccup and Toothless try to find a way out but discover that it is blocked by many rocks. Suddenly Hiccup's lantern goes off for a moment, and once they put it on again a Whispering Death was behind them and it startles Hiccup. Toothless quickly fires a plasma blast at it, causing it to be distracted. They quickly flee to find a way out of the caverns, but two more Whispering Deaths join the pursuit. As they fly off, the three Whispering Deaths suddenly disappear. They go back to investigate and discover that they are going instead to the surface and wreak havoc. Hiccup and Toothless must stop them before they cause absolute chaos. Back on Berk, Joe and Jon gives away free water and Karma was making sure Snotlout doesn't move, Gustav Larson was walking towards Mira's brothers to get water, until he feels the earth shaking and becomes suspicious. He looks at a bucket with water and notices it shaking as well as the ground. Then the shaking grows violently, and a Whispering Death exploded from the ground and in front of Gustav. Mira saw this and gasps in horror.
"GUSTAV!" Mira yelled in horror.
The Whispering Death fires, but luckily, Gobber appears with shield on hand as he protected Gustav.
"Stand back!" Gobber yelled as he shielded Gustav from the fire. Gustav escaped while Gobber fights the Whispering Death. Gobber was able to fend it off as it burrows underneath and throws off Snotlout's profits and water canteens.
"Hey! You break it, you bought it!" Snotlout yelled.
But, in the process, the Whispering Death digs towards Snotlout, casuing him to be scared. "Okay, store's closed."
Within minutes, the other two Whispering Deaths emerge and begin their onslaught. Stoick signals the Vikings with a loud horn and gives it to a Viking who he orders to keep blowing. Stoick orders the Vikings to form a defensive line in the middle of the town. Snotlout runs for his life while a burrowing Whispering Death is in pursuit. He almost gets caught but is rescued by Hookfang.
Astrid and Stormfly arrive to fend off the Whispering Death in pursuit of Snotlout and Hookfang. "Stormfly, spines!"
Stormfly screeches and fired her spines at the Whispering Death, scaring it off. as they were distracted, they didn't know a Whispering Death was about to attack Astrid and Stormfly from behind, until…
"Astrid!" Fishlegs voice came and fireball hits the Whispering Death, scaring it off. Astrid turns around and saw Fishlegs and Meatlug. "Nice shot, girl." Fishlegs prasied Meatlug, patting her gently. "Impeccable timing as usual."
Stoick is surrounded by the 3 Whispering Deaths and he only manage to stop two, the third one is about to finish him but Stoick was able to block it.
"Want something to chew on, do ya? Dinner is served!" Stoick quickly grabs a wooden umbrella and shoves it into its mouth. The Whispering Death tired to remove it, by shaking its head with Stoick holding to it, but Stoick got tossed at Gobber, knocking him down. The Vikings are overwhelmed at all sides. The two men stood up as Stoick looked at the Whispering Deaths seriously.
"Gobber, take care of the village." Stoick ordered. "I'm gonna see how our new friend Matches up with Thornado." Stoick runs off to get Thornado. Gobber watches him leave, but almost got hit by a wheelbarrow by some random villager who yelled.
"Sorry, Gobber!"
Meanwhile, Sapphire and Karma were firing at two Whispering Deaths, Mira grabbed the little ones and Gustav and gave them to Karma.
"Karma! Take them to a safe place, away from the village." Mira said in a hurry. Karma nodded, she picks up the little ones and took off to a safe distance to protect them. Mira gets on Sapphire and took off to meet up with Astrid and Fishlegs in the sky.
"Where did these Whispering Deaths come from? And why are they so much smaller?" Astrid asked loudly, looking at the Whispering Deaths destroying wreaking havoc on the village.
"They must be hatchlings." Fishlegs explains to her and Mira.
"Well, that's good news, right?" Astrid asked.
"Actually, it's not." Fishlegs said. "Newly hatched Whispering Deaths can be more deadly than adults. They don't have control of their jaw muscles or their spines. They're kind of like out of control saw blades." Fishlegs stated.
"Sounds about right." Astrid said.
"We have to stop them before Berk gets destroyed." Mira said.
Astrid and Fishlegs nodded as they fended off the Whispering Deaths. Meanwhile, Hiccup and Toothless navigate their way out of the tunnels, thanks to Toothless' ability to see in the dark. As they emerge, they discover that the village is under attack. They saw Kishi in Mors's form as he fired at an incoming Whispering Death. He and the twins heard all the commotion and flied straight to Berk and found it nearly being destroyed by Whispering Deaths.
"Stormfly, fire!" Astrid said as Stormfly fires at an incoming Whispering Death. She flies towards the twins and said. "We can hit them better when they're above ground." Astrid notcies that they weren't listening to her. "What are you two doing?" She asked as she notices the twins are just observing their destructive behaviour, it serving as entertainment for themselves.
"Whispering deaths." Ruff began. "I could watch them all day."
"The way they rip through solid rock, it's glorious." Tuff said, sniffing a bit as he was about to cry.
"Uh, are you crying?" Ruff asked, noticing some tears coming from Tuff's eyes.
"No…maybe…don't judge me!" Tuff defended, acting all though.
Astrid gave them an annoyed look before noticing a Whispering Death behind the twins and their dragon. "Uh, guys." Astrid point behind them.
The twins and their dragons turned and saw the Whispering Death was about to attack them from behind, until Barf sprays gas at the Whispering Death, casuing it to retreat back to the ground. Fishlegs and Snotlout were near the hole.
"We need to flush it out, Snotlout!" Fishlegs said loudly to Snotlout, so he could hear him from all the noise.
Snotlout agreed for once. "Yeah, we do. That's the one who took my water." Snotlout exclaims, pointing one of the Whispering Deaths. Hookfang flushes out the Whispering Deaths by bursting the tunnels into flames forcing them to come out.
Meanwhile, Hiccup and Toothless headed towards Gobber shop. Hiccup runs inside and said to Toothless to cover him. Then a juvenile Whispering Death appeared and spots Toothless. Toothless growls at the Whispering Death and they attack each other brutally. It looks like Toothless would lose the confrontation, but luckily a small reflection of the sunlight went into the Whispering Death's sensitive eyes and it gets disoriented and flees, saving Toothless's life. Hiccup was holding his Gronckle Iron Shield, he was able to get little sunlight on a cloudy day.
"Rule number one: Never forget a dragon's weakness." Hiccup said as he rushes over to his dragon, Toothless help Hiccup as he readied himself. "Come on, Toothless. Let's get after 'em."
They took off to the sky to meet up with the rest of the riders. Sapphire fired at incoming Whispering Death, Toothless flies beside her with Stormfly next to Sapphire.
"The whispering death tunnels drained our water supply." Hiccup said to them.
"Yeah, kinda figured that." Astrid said, gesturing the Whispering Deaths.
"In the hard way." Mira added.
"We need to keep them in the sunlight." Astrid said.
"That would be a problem since it's cloudy today." Mira added.
Hiccup brought out his shield. "That is why I have this." Hiccup said as a little light came from the shield and disoriented and flies away from the light.
"It's working. We're driving them away from the village." Astrid said as the riders advance, scarring away the Whispering Deaths.
"That's right! You better run." Snotlout said as Hookfang fires.
They reach the far side of the island and the Whispering Deaths seemingly flee from the island, though the twins miss them. They like them in their own way.
"I'm gonna miss those guys." Tuffnut said with a smile. "They were, like, dangerous but cool at the same time, kind of like me."
But Hiccup feels it's not over. "I don't think this is over yet, not by a long shot." Hiccup said.
"What do you mean?" Mira asked worriedly, not liking this.
"Stop being so negative." Snotlout said. "Enjoy the moment, Hiccup. Buy some water." Snotlout said.
As soon as he said this, the island shakes more violently this time, the riders and their dragons were freaking out on what's happening until something exploded from the ground, something big, and more terrifying. It was a huge white dragon that resembles to the Whispering Deaths but bigger and more terrifying. It emerges and attacks one of the Rider, luckily, they dodged on time.
"Uh, so that's what I was afraid of." Hiccup said. "Uh, suggestions, anyone?" He asked loudly as the big dragon flies towards Berk.
"What is that thing?" Snotlout asked in fear. The dragons were also scared, they never seen a dragon that big, hence the Red Death.
"Ah, Fishlegs? Is that in the book of dragons?" Hiccup asked Fishlegs, who was mumbling indistinctly, clearly that he was terrified by the dragons. Hiccup snaps him out of it. "Fishlegs! Is that thing in the book of dragons?"
"Uh, definitely not." Fishlegs answered in fear.
"Are you sure?" Hiccup asked.
"Hiccup, I am certain I would have remembered an all-white, boulder class, Titan-Wing Whispering Death with bright red eyes that bore a hole right through your very soul." Fishlegs explains fearfully.
"Toothless, plasma blast." Hiccup ordered.
Toothless fired his plasma blast at the dragon to get its attention. The white dragon grows furious and emits a loud scream that disorients the riders' dragons and Kishi.
"Its scream! It's is affecting our dragons!" Hiccup said loudly. "It's disorienting them."
Once it finished, the dragons were able to focus, and Tuff gave it an official name for its legacy. "Screaming death. I love it!" He yelled happily, but the scream wasn't only for disorienting the dragons, but to call the three Whispering Deaths. Tuff took back what he said. "Okay, maybe love is too strong a word."
"Hiccup, what are we gonna do?" Mira asked. "We can't handle a dragon that big before."
"You guys focus on the Whispering Death." Hiccup ordered. "I'll try to keep the screaming death busy."
"Okay, have fun." Snotlout yelled fearfully before Hookfang flies away. "See ya!"
The riders too off to fight the Whispering Deaths. Hiccup reminded them this. "Remember your flight club training!"
"I knew we should've gone that day." Tuff said, remembering that he and his sister didn't went to it.
The Screaming Death begins its rampage and startles a Viking lady, luckily, Hiccup and Toothless fend it off but get whacked by its tail, and they crash into the ground. The Screaming Death is about to attack them, but suddenly gets blasted by Stoick and Thornado, who finally arrive. Hiccup and Toothless regain to fly again and set off to get it out of the village while Stoick and Thornado follow. Meanwhile, Astrid, Mira, and Snotlout who are being followed by a Whispering Death, split up and Snotlout separates from Astrid and Mira. The Whispering Death follows Astrid, Mira, Sapphire, and Stormfly, who try to evade the Whispering Death. Just ahead of their path, Hookfang bends a tree and waits for Astrid and Stormfly to pass by, as soon as they do, Hookfang lets go and the Whispering Death gets battered by the tree and the Whispering Death flees.
Meanwhile, Fishlegs and Meatlug wait for the perfect moment for the to attack the Whispering Death. The Whispering Death closes in but gets farted on by Meatlug. It makes the dragon angry, but it gets whacked by Meatlug's tail bludgeon and plummets into the ocean. Back on Berk, Hiccup and Toothless try to fend off the Screaming Death by using the Whispering Death's weakness of being blinded by sunlight. It appears the Screaming Death hates it too and burrows underground, but only for a brief moment. It becomes angrier and quickly emerges and shoots between Stoick and Hiccup, even though it's still being shined on by sunlight. The Screaming Death screams again and disorients Toothless and Thornado, Toothless fires a plasma blast to shut him up. The Screaming Death chased Hiccup and Toothless towards sea, and Stoick flies for help, but gets blocked by a Whispering Death. He fended it off with a sonic blast. As soon as the Whispering Death falls back to the ground, it gets blasted by the Twins, who are ordered by Stoick to find and help Hiccup. Meanwhile, Hiccup tries to shine some light again onto the Screaming Death's face and discovers that it is attracted to sunlight, and uses it as an advantage, he diverts it to the sea stacks while the Riders follow him from behind. Astrid and Stormfly quickly manage to catch up with Hiccup and Toothless.
The two separate, but the Screaming Death manages to force Hiccup and Toothless to land. The Riders attack it ruthlessly, providing covering fire for Hiccup, but the Screaming Death fires multiple fire balls to fend off the riders. Hiccup tries to get its attention by attracting it to his shield which reflects the sunlight onto the great dragon. They use evasive maneuvers, darting through the sea stacks. Hiccup discovers that he can use its own size against it. The Screaming Death crashes through all the incoming pillars of rocks. Hiccup and Toothless stop for a moment near a large pillar and the Screaming Death dives in towards them quickly, but they manage to fly upwards and the Screaming Death hits the pillar hard and painfully, and it is finally stopped. The pillar it bumped is beginning to collapse and giant boulders crash into its wings, injuring it and making it unable to fly properly. It calls for the Whispering Deaths, signaling that he needs help.
The Screaming Death tries to fly off, but it can't, and it crashes down the cliff and onto the platform beneath it. The Riders observe this, and they also see the Whispering Deaths aid the Screaming Death, and they fly off in retreat. Toothless wants to finish them off, but Hiccup decides to let him go and the Whispering Deaths and the Screaming Death fly off for a new homestead. Back on Berk, the Vikings repair the damages done to the village.
Hiccup explains to his dad about what he and Toothless found. "I found outcast markings on a crate in those tunnels. I think Alvin planted those eggs, knowing they would hatch and tear berk apart. He might not be riding dragons yet, dad, but he is using them."
Stoick lifts a pole up. "We'll deal with Alvin and his wild dragons later. Right now, we have to fix our water problem." He said.
"You, guys, look!" They heard Fishlegs near the well. They went over to him and saw the water of the well filling up, and it looks full. "The well's filling back up."
"The Screaming Death's digging must have created a new channel for the water and redirected it back to our well." Hiccup said with a smile, relief that the water crisis is over. Which means that they may return to the original problem, and that's forcing Gobber to have a bath.
Speaking of Gobber, the blacksmith was sneaking away. "Right…well, I'll be going now." Before Gobber could escape, Stoick grabs him by the shoulder to stop him.
"Not so fast, Gobber." Stoick said sternly.
In a few minutes later, Gobber was in the tub screaming on top of his lungs as the twins gave him a bath. The Thorston twins are the only two who volunteer to give Gobber a good scrubbing.
"No! Oh, mercy! Oh, the humanity!" Gobber screamed as the twins gave him a bath.
"Make sure you scrub behind his ears. I think I saw a bird fly out of there." Stoick pointed out, causing the twins to laugh.
Meanwhile, Hiccup and Toothless were at the cliff, looking at the horizon. Hiccup was thinking at the Screaming Death and how it was born. Then Mira and Astrid came with their dragons.
"There you are." Astrid said as she gets off Stormfly. "We missed you at the scrub-down. You should have seen what came out from between his toes."
Mira shudders with Astrid. "It was disturbing to watch." Mira mutters in disgust.
Hiccup was worried about something. "I'm more concerned about what came out from under berk." He said, remembering the Screaming Death and the Whispering Deaths.
"What are you talking about? That thing's long gone." Astrid said.
"I'm not so sure." Hiccup said solemnly. "Whispering Death hatchlings are known to return to their birthplace and claim it as their own."
"So, what are you saying?" Astrid asked, fearing to know the answer.
Mira's eyes widen in realization. "It's coming back, isn't it?" She said in a low voice.
Hiccup nodded. "Yeah, and I don't think we've seen the last of the Screaming Death."
And because of this information, they know that the Screaming Death will claim Berk to itself, no matter at what cost, meaning also that the Screaming Death will one day return to haunt them speaking of the Screaming Death, it was on a far island, the temporary rest stop for the Whispering Deaths and the Screaming Death, the Whispering Deaths gather fish for the Screaming Death who is resting its injured wing, so that it will one day return for its revenge on Berk.
Okay, so the story was different from the episode, but I really wanted my Oc Edgar to be the bad guy in the "Night and the Fury" instead of Dagur. So, every story of Mira of the quick is double. So, I can be quick in updating. I hope you all like it. And for those who didn't like it, then don't read it.
