Chapter 33: View of the Skrill II
Hiccup flying Toothless on the night of a full moon searching for the missing Twins and Mira. They've been searching for them for hours but with no luck. They return to Berk to meet up with the others. Dagur and his men stayed for a while to help with the night watch. Insanity men will come back someday, so they're helping them until they find the other riders. Mira's siblings were with Gothi along with Sapphire and her siblings. Sapphire was still injured from the blast and she needs to rest. Hiccup and Toothless were at the Dragon Training Academy. Kishi in Mors's form came with Fishlegs, riding on Meatlug, flies up to them. They've been searching everywhere to find the Twins and Mira.
"Hiccup, any sign of them yet?" Fishlegs asked worriedly.
Hiccup shook his head. "None. The other Riders have come in for the night. They're resting their dragons. Dagur and his men are helping out in the night patrols, but they couldn't find Mira nor the Twins." Hiccup explains.
Fishlegs sighs a bit. "I don't blame them. I mean, look at Meatlug." He gestured his dragon. Meatlug was flying trying to stay awake the best way she can, but she couldn't. "She's sleep-flying."
"Meatlug and the other dragons are not nocturnal like me or Karma." Kishi explains telepathically.
"I got some provisions. I'm going back out." Hiccup said as he and Toothless get ready to go out.
"Wait, what are you gonna do, fly all night?" Fishlegs asked Hiccup in shock.
"If I have to, yes." Hiccup said.
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Fishlegs asked again.
"Well, I can't rest knowing the twins are lost out there somewhere." Hiccup said.
"We'll come along." Kishi said, referring him and Mors.
"Me too!"
They turn around to see Dagur walking up to them. "Dagur? What are you doing here?" Hiccup asked.
"Hiccup, the Skrill is the symbol of my people. Edgar can't have it. And Mira is like a little sister to me. She taught me that dragons can be allies. Also, I kind a want more of her lobster cooking." Dagur said with a grin.
"…We do need extra help." Kishi said to Hiccup telepathically, causing him to sigh.
"Alright, get on Kishi, we'll keep looking." He said. Dagur grins and went to Kishi and hops on his back.
Fishlegs sighs and soon agrees. "You're right. We'll go with you." He said. Then Meatlug falls from the sky and next to Fishlegs.
"No, looks like you guys need some rest. We'll be fine." Hiccup assured.
With that said, the dragons took off to the sky to find the missing Riders and possibly the Skrill. They fly above the clouds and through a thunderstorm. Hiccup thinks the twins went after the Skrill since the Skrill is attracted to lightning. And thinks that if they find the Skrill, they'll find Ruff and Tuff, and maybe Mira. They search while dodging lightning, Hiccup and Toothless have many metal in them as well as Dagur, so they should be careful. As lightning continues crashing around them, Hiccup takes out his spyglass to look around, but a close lightning bolt causes him to almost drop it. He learns that Gronckle Iron and lightning are not a terrific combo. Knowing the danger, Kishi and Toothless flies out of the storm while Dagur and Hiccup holds on to them. Then they spotted an island close by when they got out of the storm cloud. But it wasn't just any island, it was Outcast island. It wasn't the best island of choice, but they must avoid the lightning. So, they land on Outcast Island and stayed hidden. Kishi turns into his human form as they hide somewhere high and looks at the arena to see many Outcasts.
"That's a lot of Outcasts." Hiccup mutters.
"I know, right?" Dagur agrees as he looked at the arena.
"What are you up to, Alvin?" Hiccup questioned.
Suddenly, Ruffnut was beside them as she peers through the rocks. "All I know is he's planning something big with that Skrill."
"Alvin has the Skrill? Wai- Ruff?" Hiccup spoke in surprise when he saw the female Thorston. Dagur, Kishi and Toothless were surprised to see her as well. "You're-You're alive! I-I-I don't believe it! Whe-Where's Tuff?"
Ruffnut looks down sadly and answered him solemnly. "He didn't make it, Hiccup."
Kishi and Hiccup exclaimed in shock and horror with their eyes widen. "What?!"
Ruffnut looks at them and grins. "Kidding! He's right behind you." She gestured with her head.
Hiccup, Kishi, and Dagur turned around to see a dead tree, but no Tuffnut. However, they did hear his muffled voice in the tree. "What's up, guys? Cool disguise, huh? Ha. It's kinda itchy."
They just stared at the tree in confusion while Dagur just smiled casually at it. "Uh, yeah." Hiccup said almost awkwardly.
Ruffnut walks beside them. "Yeah, yeah, Tuff hollowed out that tree so he couldn't be seen. Problem is, he can't move."
"And I have bark beetles in my pants. I'm starting to like them." Tuffnut added as they heard the bugs inside the tree with Tuff. Toothless walked over to the tree and sniffed around the tree before making a face that caused him to stick his tongue out and walks away. "Hey, fellas. A little to the left. Really scratch around down there. See what you can find."
"That's an image I could do without. Wait a second, how did you guys end up here?" Hiccup suddenly asked.
"Yeah, when we saw the blast, we thought you were goners." Kishi said.
"Alvin grabbed the Skrill out of the water, we decided to follow it." Ruffnut explains casually, pointing it out.
"Weird, right?" Tuffnut said in the tree.
"Kind a." Dagur said with his arms crossed.
"No, actually, it was good that you followed it." Hiccup said almost disturbed, still can't believe that they did something smart.
"We knew that. That's, why we did it." Tuffnut said stupidly.
Kishi shook his head and then realizes something. "Wait, was Mira with you two?"
"No, we haven't seen her, why?" Ruffnut asked.
"After the blast, she got separate from the blast with you two." Hiccup explains.
They heard Tuffnut gasps in the tree. "Mira's missing! I'll save her!" He yelled as sound of struggling was heard inside the tree. They could hear him saying: 'Gotta break free!' or 'Find Mira, so she can date me!' and all.
"If she wasn't with you two, then where is she?" Hiccup asked.
Meanwhile, Mira was slowly waking from her slumber. Her body felt numb after the explosion. She was lucky to survive but something was wrong, very wrong. She slowly remembers why, Sapphire and her friends. Mira slowly opens her eyes to see cave ceiling. She slowly sits up and looks around, she was in some cave with two openings on each side. Mira was close to one and there was even a warm fire few feet away from her. And the other side of the entrance was occupied by some stranger. Mira covers her mouth from releasing a gasp. She saw a shadowy figure sitting near the other entrance, watching the darkness of the outside. Mira slowly stands up from her position and tries to tip-toe away, but the figure's head rises as if it heard her. Scared, Mira made a dash towards the entrance, not knowing that the figure went to the other. As she runs out, she yells in shock when she saw that she was high above and saw the deadly waters bellow. She tried to stay in her balance, but she slips, and she falls to her doom with her final scream. But before she could hit the water, a flying figure came from the corner and quickly grabs her and taking her back to the cave that is at the sea stack.
Once they reach there. Mira was gently put down as she collapses on the floor with fright. Her heart was still beating from that fall. She then looks up to her savior and gasps in shock. Standing right in front of her was a being of unknown. She quickly backs away as she got a better look of the stranger. Well, for starters, it was a male. He's very tall, he's twice the size of Kishi and muscular. His appearance was...terrifying. He looks like human, but he also has...dragon parts. He has claws for hands, his feet are talons, his wings were like dragons, he has two sharp pointy horns on top of his dark purple back spiky hair. And his eyes are blood red and looked like dragon's eyes. He wears a black baggy pants and there was even a tail that was attached to him! Mira looks at him again and notices that he has huge x like scar on his muscular chest that has some scales on his shoulders and sides, and some parts have human skins. His face has some scales, yet he looks somewhat handsome. The two of them stared for a while, not taking each other's eyes off. Mira was still shock on this being before her. The male just looked at her calmly before offering a claw. Mira stared at the sharp claw, she didn't know what he was doing, but she guessed that he was offering help. Mira hesitated a bit, but she accepted his claw, it was rough and scaly, yet soft at the same time. She was then lifted from the ground with ease and stood in front of the being. Mira almost blushed when she almost pressed against the male's chest. He lets go of her hand and Mira holds her hand before moving away a bit from the stranger. The male looks at her before taking something behind him. Mira became tense, fearing that he might have a weapon, but to her surprise and relief, he took was an apple, a big juicy apple. He holds it up in front of Mira, who stared at it. Mira didn't move as the male offers her an apple. It was strange since this...person was being so hospitable to her. Mira hesitated at getting the apple before accepting it.
"Um...thank you?" Mira mutters out almost awkwardly.
The male said nothing as he walks towards the other entrance and sits on the edge. Mira stared at him in confusion as she looks at the apple in her hand. She was still confused by his generosity and she wonders who he is. Mira walks over to the male to get a better look of him. He resembles almost like the Skrill that she and her friends face off. Mira has a strange theory that this male was actually the Skrill that attack her and her friends. Yet, he seems so…docile.
The stranger looks at the vast ocean, resting his right arm resting on top of his right leg while his left leg was resting at the edge and his left arm was down. He didn't bother to look up at Mira when she sits down next to him. She was sitting somewhat close to him, looking at the apple in her hands. She wasn't sure what to do or say. Mira has never encounter this being before. Maybe her aunts know. After all, they are all knowing. However, Mira wonders who is and what's his name. Mira turns to him, taking a deep breathe and sighs, as she looks at him.
"M-My name is Mira." She stuttered a bit, still nervous about this being before her.
The male didn't respond as he continuous to look outside. There were still storm clouds, thunder was heard from afar. Mira could tell that this male isn't a conversationalist. Mira was about to speak, when suddenly a lightning bolt came out from the sky and was about to strike Mira when the male quickly stood up and pulls Mira away and uses his body to block the lightning. Mira lands roughly on the ground and shielded her eyes when the lightning strikes at the strange male, causing a bright light to brighten the cave. After the light dies down, Mira looks up and gasps to see the male unharmed. His body has static flow through his body. He looks at Mira casually as she slowly gets up, still looking at the male in shock.
"A-Are you okay?" Mira almost exclaims, feeling worried to him.
The male didn't respond, he just stared at Mira before cracking his shoulders, causing his bones to pop a bit, and then his head. He wasn't harm by the lightning at all. In fact, he was immune to it like the Skrill. The male then looks at Mira's arm, noticing that she hurt herself after she roughly lands on the ground when he pulls her away from the lightning. He gently grabs Mira's injured arm and looks at it carefully. Mira could feel herself blushing when she felt the male's scaly claw holding her skin.
"It's just a scratch." Mira said almost in an assuring voice.
She pulled away a bit and holds her slightly injured arm. She turns her head a way a bit before looking at the male. He tilts his head at her as he looks at her in the eyes. Mira finds it rather adorable yet scary that this stranger act like a dragon and still be a human. It was really strange for her to be with him, but she at least should know his name.
"D-Do you have a name?" She asked.
The male didn't respond to her, he just looked at her in the eyes. It felt like eternity, he didn't say anything for a while. But after a while, he spoke in a in deep voice. "X."
"X? Your name is X?" Mira asked.
To her surprise, the one known as X nodded. Mira felt happy that she got a response but wonders why he was here. She's always curious about hybrids. She has two hatchling hybrids and a friend who has a dragon hybrid to become one with him. It didn't take long for her to understand this since she's used to it, but how can X be a human dragon hybrid. Then X went to the entrance again and sit back down, looking at the stormy sky. Mira, still feeling a little shaken up from the lightning incident, walked over to him and sits back down. She looks at X and then to the stormy sky. She was skeptical at first, but she thinks that X was waiting for someone.
"A-Are waiting for someone?" Mira asked him and X responded with a nod as he continues looking at the sky. "Who?"
"Brother…" He answered with a growl like voice.
"Your brother?" Mira asked in surprise, earning another nod from X. "Is he like you?"
X shook his head and answered in a growl like voice. "Dragon…"
"Full dragon?" Mira asked, earning nod from X. "I-Is he a…Skrill?"
Again, X nodded as he looked at the sky. "We…froze from…blizzard."
"You two were caught by a blizzard and were both frozen in glacier, right?" Mira guessed.
X nodded again. "Yes…ice break…I free…brother missing." He explains the best way he can.
That's when Mira realizes something. The glacier where they found the Skrill…it was X's brother! No wonder why X has these Skrill features, he was somewhat related to the Skrill, but how? Can a dragon be with a human or something else?
However, all questions about X moved aside when she realizes about the Skrill just right now. Her friends and family are probably looking for her. She can't imagine how Sapphire was feeling right now. She got separated from the blast and somehow was found by X.
"X?" Mira spoke, causing X to glance at her. I have friends that found your brother."
This caught X's attention as he fully turns to Mira. Mira explains to him the best way she could. They found his brother on where he was also frozen. They brought him to Berk, and he escaped, thanks to the Thorston Twins. And he went on a rampage. They soon found him but were soon attack by Edgar and his Insanities. They tried their best to get the Skrill away from them, but soon got blasted away when the Skrill almost hit the twins if Toothless and Sapphire didn't blast the attack with their plasma blast. X listens to her words, understanding the best way he could, wanting to find his brother so badly.
"And maybe with your help, we can find him." Mira said.
X stared at her for a few second before getting up and offered a claw. Mira looked at his claw for a while before accepting it. Soon, she was lifted from the ground and was soon carried bridal-style. Mira blushed by this but soon vanished when she lets out a yelp when X jumps off the cliff. Mira holds his neck tightly with her eyes closed, she could feel the wind whistling in her ears. Then X spread his wings and they took off to the sky with Mira in his arms. X zooms off through the sky as Mira hangs on with her dear life.
She just hopes that her friends are okay.
Speaking of her friends, Hiccup, Kishi, Dagur, Ruff, and Tuff (who was still in the tree) were trying to figure out on what Alvin plans on doing with the Skrill. They spy at the arena from the afar and saw Skrill being brought out from his cage and is restrain by two Outcasts. Hiccup and the others watched from afar as the young chief was using his spyglass.
"Yep…there it is." Hiccup mutters out.
"Yeah." Tuffnut agrees in the tree,
"Man! This is not good."
"No."
"We are in serious trouble." Hiccup added.
"With a capital 'T', no, 'S'. Wait, would you capitalize 'serious' or 'trouble'? Both?" Tuffnut asked, causing Hiccup, Kishi, Dagur, and Ruff to glare at him with grunts. "I'll shut up now."
When Hiccup turns back to the arena, he was shocked to see Mildew which was weird. He even saw Insanity soldiers. And then Edgar. Edgar and Alvin together with the Skrill is really not good. Edgar was there. The reason he was there was Alvin. He contacted Edgar and made wagers to have a…'unity' with one another. Edgar grungily agrees as he takes a closer look at the Skrill. But was cut off short when Mildew barges in saying that the dragon is no good and does not believe that the Skrill draws its power from lightning.
However, he immediately regrets it after the Skrill harness energy from the lightning and strikes Mildew, sending him flying and crashing. He was able to recover with some scorch marks, but he was unable to speak properly like Snotlout did when he was struck by the Skrill's lightning. And this pleases Edgar. When the Skrill was taken back to its cage, Edgar promises to the Skrill that he'll be free of striking anyone that he likes. Well, mostly Edgar wants to use the Skrill to take over Berk and Berserker Island. But before Edgar could do anything, Alvin reminds the Insanity Chief that he needs to fulfill the terms of their agreement. Alvin needs Edgar's fleet and his knowledge of the Skrill to occupy Berk. Edgar glares at him but agrees the terms as he walks away.
Savage walks up to Alvin. "Remind me again why we're dealing with this lunatic?" He asked the chief of the Outcast.
"He has the knowledge of the Skrill from the Bersekers and he has an army. We need both to make sure we reclaim Berk. After we have, we'll dispose of 'em all." Alvin informs with a dark grin on his face.
After they seen enough, Hiccup planned to sneak into town and find out what Edgar and Alvin are up to. Hiccup and Dagur can't go, they'd recognize them. Kishi can't go either because they will be more suspicious. Ruffnut would but she informs them that Outcast food gives her gas. And another image that he can live without. The only one available was Tuffnut to be their spy. Tuff was able to get out of the tree. Tuff needs to go down there and get as much info as he can without being seen.
"Way ahead of you!" Tuffnut grins. "I'll move like the wind. They won't even see me coming!"
With that said he starts crawling around, but he slips and falls off the cliff screaming, crashing into some rocks, and lands in front of an Outcast Guard, who was near the door. Tuffnut grins on the fall and said: 'That was great!' Yet, he was seen by the Outcast Guard as he pointed his spear at him.
"Halt! What are you doing there? And who are you?" He asked suspiciously.
Tuffnut quickly got up and think of an excuse. "Who am I? I'm…uh…I'm Buffnut. Yep! That's it! Insanity Buffnut "IB," they call me. Ol' Buffynut. I was sent by Edgar to check your defenses. Yep! I gotta check 'em out. See if they're strong." Tuffnut explains, hoping that his lie work, which it did.
"Oh, yes! Yes, sir! I'm ready for anything." The Outcast Guard said saluting.
"Okay. Good! Now, where's the big meeting? You know, the powwow." Tuffnut asked.
"You mean Alvin and Edgar?"
Tuffnut came to his face. "Did you seriously just ask me that, soldier? If you think I know the answer, you are sorely mistaken, mister. Did you just ask me that? I've forgotten." He said stupidly, crossing his arms.
Outcast Guard became confused. "Uh, so do you want to know?"
"Don't sass me!" Tuffnut exclaims. "I'm still talking about whether or not you did seriously just ask me that!"
Outcast Guard became scared of this and points at the direction where Tuffut needs to go. "Alvin's throne room. Just opposite the harbor. They're celebrating the treaty, Sir." He explains.
"Awesome! Ju-uh, just…uh, stand there, at attention." Tuffnut explains, causing the Outcast Guard to straighten up a bit. "Straight-Straight back. A healthy spine is a happy spine. My fine fellow." Tuffnut said while patting the guard before he walks away.
"Yes, sir!" The Oucats Guard said before he lets out a sigh that he was holding when Tuffnut left.
Alvin's throne room, Edgar and Alvin were sitting at polar ends of a table while their guards stand to their right sides, glaring at each other. They were negotiations for the Insanities and Outcasts invasion on Berk and Berserker. Alvin will bring his army to take Berk themselves first and only then can Edgar take the Skrill. Edgar had no choice but to agree. They didn't know that Tuffnut was in as he sneaks around and finds a table filled with food. Forgetting to be stealthy, Tuffnut immediately went to the food. When the meeting was over, one of Edgar's men asked why they are working with Alvin again.
Edgar informs him this. "Because we want that Skrill. Once we have it, we'll dispose of him." He said.
Before he could think his plan further, he hears an someone chewing very loudly, which annoys him greatly. "Who is smacking their food! I hate smacking!" Edgar yells as he turns to the direction where the loud chewing was coming form.
Turns out, it was Tuffnut. Tuff was chewing on a cooked chicken leg but stops chewing when he was spotted. He spits out the meat in his mouth as sheepishly grins at them.
"Sorry. I hate it when my mouth does that. Ha, ha." He points at his mouth and his nose. "Cut it out, mouth. Shut up, nose. They don't like each other."
Edgar came towards him and points his sword at Tuffnut's throat. "Who are you?" He asked dangerously.
Tuffnut swallows hard as he looks at the sword and then to Edgar. "Uh, me? I'm, uh…I'm Buffnut. You know, Buffnut the Insanity."
Edgar stared at 'Buffnut' suspiciously. "You're one of mine? What were you doing back there?" He asked with a growl, dangerously pointing the sword at Tuffnut.
Tuffnut quickly thinks of an excuse. "Uh, well, I was, uh, composing a poem in honor of your new deal with Alvin, and I got hungry, 'cause poetry is very exhausting. Geez, you gotta have a little something every six lines."
Edgar raised a brow and moves his sword off Tuff. "A poem? Let me hear it. If I like it, kill you…well? I'm waiting."
Tuffnut quickly thinks of a poem for Edgar, so the Chief of the Insanities don't kill him. "Uh, Okay, yeah, definitely want to live." Tuffnut clears his throat. "There once was a village called Berk, run by a big viking jerk. Blasting him would be thrilling, then you'd go a-skrilling, and show us how to be, insane?" Tuffnut said.
Edgar stared at him blankly. Tuffnut made cross eyes as his face shows nervousness. As if like an eternity, Edgar finally spoke. "I, would go, a-skrilling?" He thinks for a while and shrugs. "Hmph, not bad. You can live. Give this boy yak ribs and burly cakes." Then he points his sword at Tuff in a angry matter.
"But no smacking. I hate smacking!"
As Edgar walks away, Mildew walks over with a plate on hands, but soon stops when he sees Tuffnut, who became shock by this, and drops his plate in surprise and points at Tuffnut. He tried to tell everyone that he's a Berkian, but no one could understand him.
"What is this old man gibbering about now?" Edgar asked Alvin in annoyance.
Tuffnut pushes Mildew down as he made an excuse. "Uh, so did I mention how much I hate Berk?" Tuff laughs almost nervously. "Hey, directions to Berk! North till you smell it, west till you step in it. Am I right, people? Come on."
This cause the Outcast guards to start laughing at his joke, finding it amusing. But Mildew gets back up and tries to seize Tuffnut but he pushes him away, trying to keep his identity a secret.
"Great idea, babbler! A song! I should sing a song. So…Hooligan tribe, won't you come out tonight, come out tonight, come out tonight. Hooligan tribe, won't you come out tonight or die by the light of the moon!"
The Outcast guards enjoyed Tuffnut song while Mildew stared at them in disbelief. "Oh, by the light of the moon. Oh, by the light of the moon. Remember to use your fork and your knife and also use your spoon!"
As finished, the Outcast guards start laughing again hard at Tuffnut's song. Mildew points a Tuffnut and Blathers 'Berk! Berk! Berk!' and no one seems to understand him. Tuffnut elbow Mildew in the head and fells unconscious.
"Nobody likes a heckler." Tuffnut said to Mildew, earning laughter from the Outcast guards. "Right?"
X was flying through the sea, carrying Mira as they headed towards the location of Berk. Mira holds on him tightly as she guides him where Berk is. Getting there was easy since X is really fast. But before they could reach their destination. Mira saw something in the water. She looks at the ocean and saw two figures jumping in and out of the water. Mira looks at X, who looks at her.
"X, there's something in the water, I think we should check it out." She said.
X who surprised Mira even more, nodded and flies down to water. He hovers above it, making sure he doesn't touch to water, preventing Mira from getting electrocuted. As they were close to the waters, two figures emerged out from the water. It was two of Mira's aunts, Blódughadda and Hrönn. They were the ones who were reaching out to them, trying to get their attentions.
"Aunt Blódughadda? Aunt Hrönn? What are you two doing here?" Mira asked in surprise.
Blódughadda and Hrönn looked at X, who was carrying their niece in bridal style. Blódughadda would yell at him to put her down in the water, so she can turn to her mermaid form and swims to Berk, but she decided not to because he doesn't seem to interest in Mira…yet.
Hrönn was the one who answered Mira's question. "We come to you, our precious niece. To inform you that some your friends are in Outcast Island along with the Skrill.
X's eyes widen by this. "Brother…"
Blódughadda nodded. "Yes, your brother is there, but not he won't last long. Alvin and Edgar are going to use him to attack Berk and Berserker Island if they aren't stop."
Mira became worried. If the Outcast and the Insanities worked together, Berk and Berserker Island will have full scaled war. She knew that they have to be stopped. They must go to Outcast Island save X's brother.
"X, we have to go to Outcast Island. We can save both my friends and your brother." Mira said.
X looks at her. Mira wonders if he's okay being with other humans. But to her surprise, X nodded with a grunt. She smiles at him and then looked at her aunts, who were looking at her.
"Thank you Aunt Blódughadda and Aunt Hrönn. We'll stop this before they start a war."
"Be safe, out precious niece." Blódughadda and Hrönn said unison.
Mira nodded and looks at X. "Let's go, X." She said.
X lets out a Skrill like roar to the sky before flapping his massive wings to the sky and flies towards another direction that leads to Outcast Island. Blódughadda and Hrönn watched as the Skrill Human Hybrid flies towards Outcast Island with Mira in his arms. Blódughadda wasn't very pleased that her niece was being carried by some male hybrid but didn't hold a grudge. Hrönn, on the other hand, was thrilled to see that her niece was being well taken care of by this male. Unlike the males on Berk, scratch Hiccup, X was more responsible and somewhat well behave.
"He makes a wonderful husband for Mira." Hrönn said to Blódughadda with a smile
Blódughadda gave her sister an annoyed look. "He has to get our blessings first." She said seriously before she and Hrönn dives in the water.
Hours later, Tuffnut explain the situation to Hiccup, Kishi, Dagur, and Ruffnut back at their hiding spot and told them the negotiations of Edgar and Alvin that they are going to attack Berk and Berserker Island with their fleets.
"The plan is to smash those dirty Berkians and Berserkers to pieces with both fleets! It's gonna be awesome." Tuffnut explains to them.
"Yeah, uh…you do realize we're the Berkians? And Dagur is the Berserker, right?" Hiccup stated.
"Yeah, and I'll let that slide you enjoy smashing my people." Dagur said almost annoyed.
"Oh, right…still gonna be awesome." Tuffnut mutters with a grin.
Hiccup rubs his chin. "Two fleets and a Skrill are gonna be pretty tough to beat." Hiccup mutters.
"And if Edgar knows how to control the Skrill, it will be even harder." Kishi added.
"No, Alvin has made it pretty clear. Edgar doesn't get the Skrill until after they destroy Berk and Berserker Island. I think they have trust issues." Tuffnut informs.
This caught Hiccup's attention. "Wait, what did you just say?" Hiccup asked.
"I said they have trust issues." Tuffnut repeated.
"No, before that." Kishi said.
"You said, Edgar doesn't get the Skrill until after the attack. Think about it. No Skrill, no alliance. No alliance, no invasion. Tuff, we need you to get back into town and distract the arena guards. Toothless, Dagur, Kishi and I are going to free that Skrill." Hiccup said.
Tuffnut stops him there. "Uh, hang on a sec. I'm pretty sure Edgar threatened to kill me."
"So?" Ruffnut asked, not caring that her brother will die.
"Just wanted to get that out there." Tuffnut said while he looks around at them to care but no one acknowledges his concerns. Sighing defeat he stood up to do his job. "Ah, fine! I'm going. And my legs are on your head." He said to his sister before walking away but comes back to correct his words.
"I mean, not…you know what I'm saying. You'll be thinking about these legs if I lose 'em." He said to his sister, who smiled in amusement.
So, with that said, Hiccup and Toothless flying down with Kishi, in his Mors form, and Dagur to get the Skrill. But when they got on top of the arena, they were surprise when they spotted the guards unconscious.
"Good job, Tuff. That was quick." Hiccup said.
"Too quick." Kishi said suspiciously. "I don't think Tuffnut did this."
And Kishi was right, Tuffnut didn't do this. Tuffnut was at what appears to be a mess hall. He was telling jokes to an audience of Outcast guards. He forgot the task that he was supposed to do.
"Okay, okay, okay, okay. I-I got another one. How do you get a one-armed Berkian out of a tree?"
Outcast Guard raised a cup with a grin. "How?"
Tuffnut did a waving motion. "You wave." He said, causing them laugh. "That's assuming that he isn't just sitting on a branch!"
Outcast Guard sighs, trying to catch his breath. "Ah, you kill us, Buffnut."
Tuffnut waves him stop. "Oh, stop! You-You guards-you guys are just saying that. I almost said guards. Wait, guards? Aren't I supposed to be doing something with guards?" He asked himself. That's when Tuffnut remembers something and quickly starts running.
One of the Outcast Guards called out to him. "Oh, hey, don't leave! Oh, tell the one about the Viking girl with the woolly igloo!"
Back to Hiccup and the others. They entered the arena and found the cage that the Skrill was being put was empty. They were shocked to find out that it was gone.
"It's gone!" Hiccup exclaims in shock.
"But it was in its cage when the Outcast put it there." Dagur added.
Then Tuffnut came, he was on top of the arena and saw that they done it already. "Oh, good. I thought I was too late." Tuffnut said jumping in. "Nice job with those guards, by the way."
They stared at him in confusion. "Wha-What are you talking about?" Hiccup asked.
"Yeah! We just got here." Dagur informs.
"And where's the Skrill?" Hiccup asked again.
Tuffnut's face grew pale. "Uh-oh…"
"Uh, yeah, 'uh-oh'." Hiccup stated.
Tuffnut points out to them. "Well, if you guys don't have the Skrill, and I don't have the Skrill, then who has the Skrill?" He asked in shock.
"I believe I know who has it." Kishi said to them telepathically.
Then they heard voices were approaching them. this was their cue for them to hide. They hid somewhere far and were able to listen to one of the Outcast Guards saying the Skrill is gone and telling the others to sound the alarm.
Hiccup turns to Tuffnut. "Tuff, you go get Ruff. We're gonna try and find that Skrill before Edgar does."
With that said Hiccup gets on Toothless while Dagur gets on Kishi's Mors form and flies away. It didn't take long to find Edgar and his men. They were escaping on one of his ships, but Alvin finds him first before they could do anything to stop him. Edgar has broken the terms of their agreement has taken the Skrill. Edgar cuts the ropes on the sail to reveal the Skrill flying with ropes attached, being held in place by two Berserkers.
Betrayed, Alvin lashes out and jumps on Edgar's ship and fights him. The two chiefs fought with their swords. Alvin and Edgar have both intention on killing one another. Alvin disarms Edgar and knocks him on the ground. Alvin would have won if Edgar didn't jump away before he could pierce him with his sword. Edgar grabs the Skrill's ropes and uses it to aim at Alvin. Edgar tugs the ropes and the Skrill gathers lightning and Edgar made the Skrill fire at Alvin, who jumps away to dodge the attack. Edgar mocks him as he tugs the ropes again and the Skrill fires at Alvin who keeps dodging.
Alvin then jumps into the water, avoiding the Skirll's attack. Edgar glares at him as he aims the Skrill at the Outcast Chief. Alvin dives in the water and Edgar makes the Skrill attack the water while he laughs evilly. The remaining Outcasts watched in horror as their leader was taken out by the Insanity Chief. Edgar didn't attack them, but he did offers them a chance to join him. They didn't need to think twice as the saw the dead fish floating to the surface of the water or the fact the Skrill gathers more lightning to make Edgar to look more threatening. So, the Outcast surrender and pledge their loyalty to Edgar.
Hiccup and the others knew that they can't handle this situation, so they fall back to come up with another plan. Hours later, both of Insanity and Outcast fleets are ready for their invasion to Berk and Berserker Island. Edgar has waited for a long time for his revenge against them. Until Hiccup and Toothless shows up from the sky. Edgar glares at them.
"YOU!" Edgar yells in anger.
"Hello, Edgar. I thought we could settle this like real Vikings, just you and me." Hiccup said challenging.
Edgar glares at him. "Very well, Haddock." Edgar said as he went over to the ropes that are bounded to the Skrill. "Me and my Skrill against you and your Night Fury!"
Edgar makes the Skrill fire at Hiccup and Toothless multiple times, but they dodge while flying away. Edgar went after them with the Skrill in bounds and made it follow them to the rocky cliffs. Toothless fires twice at the Skrill but it blocks both shots. The Skrill's hides were immune to Night Fury's plasma blast since he stored a lot of lightning in his body. Edgar was about to make the Skrill fire again when another Skrill roar was heard, but louder and scarier. Everyone froze from their spot, and suddenly a figure lands on the ground, separating Hiccup and Edgar. They saw the figure has Skrill wings, making them think it was another Skrill, but when the wings revealed who it was. It shocked everyone around them.
It wasn't a Skrill. No, it was a human who is half Skrill!
The Human Skrill Hybrid glares at them before turning to Edgar. He saw him retraining the Skrill and uses him as a weapon. The Human Skrill Hybrid lowers head before shooting upwards as he lets out a powerful roar that shook the earth. Hiccup covers his ears along with Toothless while Edgar did his best to block the roar. The Skrill stared at the hybrid in shock and yet happiness, he knows that hybrid.
As Human Skrill Hybrid stopped, he glares at Edgar and releases a dangerous snarl at him. Edgar glares at him and made the Skrill fires at him. The Human Skrill Hybrid didn't move as the blast hits him, but it didn't kill him. Instead, the Human Skrill Hybrid absorbs the attack, storing the lightning in his body like the Skrill. Hiccup and Edgar stared in shock when he did that. The Human Skrill Hybrid didn't faze, he simply cracks his shoulders, before opening his claws to summon lightning and forms them into spinning shuriken like blades and fires at Edgar. But instead of hitting him, the lightning shuriken blades cut the ropes that bounded the Skrill, freeing him in the process.
"NO!" Edgar yelled but soon was cut off when the Human Skrill Hybrid was right in front of him, with an angry look on his face.
His right claw has lightning energy in it before punching Edgar in his stomach. Edgar's face shows a painful expression before he was sent flying off the cliff and into the water. The Human Skrill Hybrid lets out a victory roar and Skrill soon joins him. He soon took off to the sky and flies towards the Skrill. The Skrill roars with joy as the two beings flies around to one another, clearly happy to see each other again. Hiccup and Toothless stared in shock on what they just saw. But their shock soon replaced by worry when the Human Skrill Hybrid and the Skrill turns to them. The Skrill growls at them dangerously as he was ready to attack them, but Human Skrill Hybrid stopped him with a bark like roar. The Skrill turns to the hybrid with confusion as he began making dragon like growls and grunts. Hiccup and Toothless watched them have their conversation and the Skrill glanced at them and then to the Human Skrill Hybrid. After their 'talk', the Skrill and the Human Skrill Hybrid turned to the duo. They stared at them for a while before they bowed their heads at them, showing the two their respect. Hiccup couldn't help but sigh in relief, knowing that there won't be any trouble.
"HICCUP!" Kishi's voice rang in his head.
Hiccup turns around and saw Kishi in Mors's form and Dagur, who was riding him, came to them with the twins and their dragons. They soon stopped in mid-air to see Human Skrill Hybrid. Kishi/Mors stared at the Human Skrill Hybrid in shock. They had heard stories of human dragon hybrids before, but this was beyond that.
"Kishi? What is it?" Hiccup Kishi with concern.
Kishi snapped out from his thought and said to him. "The Insanities and Outcast are coming our way, we need to get a move on!"
Hiccup understood and doesn't need to be told twice. He turns to the Human Skrill Hybrid and the Skrill. "Come with us, you'll be safe." He said before he and the others left the island.
As they fly to the sky, Hiccup turns around and saw the Human Skrill Hybrid and Skrill following them. Hiccup felt a wave of relief inside of him as he turns to Kishi. "I guess we have a new species in the Book of Dragons." Hiccup said.
Kishi chuckled in their minds. "I believe we do." He said before looking at Dagur. "Care to stay and help us examine your people's dragon?"
"Yeah! I am not going to miss this opportunity!" Dagur said with a grin.
"We can do that later. But first, we need to find Mira and-" Hiccup was cut off when he saw Human Skrill Hybrid made a turn, followed by the Skrill. "Where are thy going?"
"Don't know, let's follow them." Kishi said.
They followed the two males towards another direction. The Human Skrill Hybrid and the Skrill fly towards some sea-stacks. Hiccup saw someone on top of one of the sea-stacks. The Human Skrill Hybrid flies towards to the person before scooping that said person from the sea-stack. The Human Skrill Hybrid return to the riders, Kishi/Mors, and Dagur with the Skrill following behind him. Everyone's eyes widen in shock to see who the Human Skrill Hybrid was carrying.
It was Mira!
"MIRA?!/MIRA?!" They exclaimed in shock and amazement.
Mira was being carried bridal-style by the Human Skrill Hybrid. She looked at them with relief and happiness. "I'm so glad that you guys are okay."
"You're glad?! We're glad that you weren't killed by the blast!" Hiccup almost exclaims as he was still happy to see her alright.
Mira couldn't help but giggled before turning to the Human Skrill Hybrid carrying her. "Well, I wouldn't survive if it wasn't for X." She said, causing X to glance down at her.
"X? Is that his name?" Hiccup asked.
Mira nodded. "Yes, he's the one who saved me and took care of me." She said as she looked at X with a smile.
Hiccup smiles at her. "Well, you can tell us more when we head to Berk. Let's go home." He said.
"Thought you'd never ask." Ruffnut said dreamily as she stared at X happily.
"I am gonna miss some of those Outcast guys. They could really carry a tune." Tuffnut said as they headed home.
"I know, right?" Ruffnut said, didn't her brother's words right as she continues staring at X dreamily.
And this cause Tuffnut to sing. "Hooligan tribe, won't you come out tonight, come out tonight, come out tonight..."
Kishi shook his head. "Somethings never change." He said.
Hiccup laughs a bit. "Well, there's one thing that won't change, is that I won't miss Edgar, that's for sure." He said.
"Amen to that!" Dagur grins as they headed home while ignoring Tuffnut's singing.
Ruffnut was able to snap out from her trance of looking at X's muscles and angrily said to her brother. "Uh, they could carry a tune, not you!"
Mira smiles as X carries her home with his Skrill brother following them, knowing that they won the battle. And head back home.
However, they didn't know that Edgar has survive the fall and was inside the Outcast hideout, glairng at the drawing of Toothless. When Savage came in, he informs Edgar that search parties tried to find Hiccup and the Skrill have failed because they were heading to Berk's territory. And this cause Edgar to be enrage as he stabs a knife in a picture of Toothless.
His revenge has grown even more when they defeated him. He won't rest until his enemies are good as dead.
