Hiccup and his group were sailing towards Arlong Park at full speed, there were making good time as they were using Moohoo to tell them tow them towards the island. However the increased speed did cause the boat to launch out of the water a few times.

Hiccup, however, didn't care in the slightest. All he cared about was getting to Arlong Park as quickly as possible. "Astrid, Fishlegs, just hang on."


Meanwhile Arlong was still being dragged away from Leefside by his men, he was still feeling enraged that Snotlout had been able to strike him the moment of his pride.

"Let go!" he roared. He then immediately shoved to the Fishman holding him and looked at them. "Find him! I want that snobbish human now!" He then looked down at his webbed hand enraged. "To think some lonely human scum would defy us, the Fishman."

He then finally managed to calm down. "Come on! We're going back to Arlong Park."


Snotlout meanwhile was still running, he was fully aware that Arlong had sent several men after him and he didn't fancy facing all them by himself.

"I just can't shake these guys," he said as he noticed three Fishmen chasing after him.

He then immediately jumped and went straight through a bush and the Fishmen lost sight of him.

"Hey, where did he go?"

"I'm right here, come and get me if you're brave enough!" Snotlout mocked.

The Fishmen smiled, because they immediately saw movement within the bushes and knew his precise location.

"You fool, you're dumber than I thought."

The three of them then immediately jumped when they saw the shadowy figure of Snotlout, but then they realised it was nothing more than a log. Then Snotlout made his move, he came rushing towards them raising his fist.

"Snot Punch!" he smiled.

He then immediately gave them each a powerful punch there was so strong that it not them to the ground. They probably would have been able to guard against the attack, but Snotlout use the confusion to his advantage striking them before they had their guard up.

After he took the three of them down he immediately ran off and smiled broadly as he ran down the side of a hill.

"I guess Fishmen aren't all that they're cracked up to be," he said. "Not one of those muttonheads can catch me, the mighty Snotlout."

He was so busy complementing himself that he failed to notice that he was approaching a steep cliff. Thankfully, he was able to stop just in time, but now he was trapped.

"Wait a minute, I'm back at the shore, how did that happen?" Snotlout pondered.

Unfortunately to make matters worse the three Fishmen he had attack were now back on their feet.

"I think I heard him over here."

Soon the three of them reached the cliff, but there was no sign of Snotlout much to their confusion.

"Huh, no one is here."

"Must have been hearing things."

"That guy sure can run."

"All right, men, let's move on."

Snotlout was there in fact, but he remained perfectly still behind a small tree.


However, at the bottom of the cliff was another Fishman, this one for a resemblance to a smelt-whiting fish. He wasn't as large as many of the other Fishman, but his mouth was much longer and he went by the name of Chew.

At the moment he was pinning a man to the cliff wall, no doubt to find information on Snotlout.

"I don't know," the man wheezed.

"Right, I hope for your sake you're not lying to me," said Chew.

Unfortunately that precise moment Snotlout lost his footing and tumbled his way down the cliff and that didn't go unnoticed by Chew. He then immediately dived into the water, but Snotlout was a bit winded to notice this.

The man that Chew had threatened to try to warn Snotlout, but he just assumed that he was waving asking if he was okay.

"I'm fine, thanks for asking!" Snotlout yelled waving. "I'm safe and sound as you can see!"

Then Chew emerge from the water and appeared right in front of him.

"I can't tell you how pleased I am that you're safe," he said.

Snotlout gulped.


Toothless meanwhile was still in the compound it was getting very bored.

"What's taking so long?" he moaned. "Hiccup, where are you? I can't just sit around waiting for you."

Then he suddenly heard some grunting sounds coming from the entrance to the compound. Upon closer inspection he saw three fishing hooks poking over the wall.

"Incredible, what are you?" said a voice. "Some kind of super fish? Not even the mighty Octron, Octopus Leader of the Arlong Pirates can pull you from the ocean! What an epic battle, I don't know who you are, but you're the gassiest fish in the East Blue."

Toothless buildings when he saw the butt of a Fishman poking over the side of the wall. It didn't take a genius to find out that Octron had somehow managed to hook himself and he soon became aware of it as well.

"Hey, what the?" Octron blinked. "It was me all along?"

The line then snapped and he landed on the ground. "You are indeed the gassiest fish in the East Blue, me." He then blinked when he tried to make sense of what he said. "That's weird."

"It sure is," said Toothless as he looked down at him from the wall.

Octron looked up and saw him. "Hey, who are you? Speak up now!"

"I take it that you're a Fishman too," Toothless assumed.

"The name is Octron and I'm just your regular old octopus Fishman and it would seem as if you are just a Drake," he noted.

"Yeah," Toothless nodded.

"A Marine or possibly a guest," Octron assumed.

"A guest?" said Toothless and looked at the unconscious Fishman in the compound. "Hmm, you could say that."

"Arlong isn't here, is he?"

"No, I thought you might know where he is."

"Apparently there is some snobbish looking character running around causing trouble. So Arlong locked that guy's friend here and then went to Leefside Village to hunt down that pesky troublemaker."

Toothless sighed. "Oh man, Snotlout." He then shook his head. 'Well, I had better save him.'

He then immediately jumped down from the wall and landed next to Octron. "So, this Leefside Village how do I get there?"

"Get in," said Octron pointed towards a container with three of his arms. "Your guest, hop in, I'll take you, swordsman."


Arlong had just entered the compound and that's when he and his men saw the carnage everywhere. He then immediately rushed towards the nearest Fishman and held him in his arms.

"What the Hell happened here? Who did this to you?" he demanded. He then immediately looked up into the sky. "Tell me who did this, brothers?"

"Toothless," said the Fishman in his arms weakly.

Arlong didn't hear him and drew him closer to his head. "What? What did you say?"

"Toothless," he repeated.

"What?" Arlong stared. "The Pirate Hunter, has he come to collect my head?"

"We had him, that man we caught, that was him. He was Toothless."

"That's him?" Arlong stared.

"Yes, that swordsman was Toothless."

He then fell unconscious and it was at that point that Chew arrived dragging Snotlout by his hair.

"Arlong, found him, he," he said and then stopped when he saw the carnage. "What is this?"

Arlong looked at him. "Took you long enough, Chew."

Snotlout just stared. "Don't tell me that Toothless is—"

Arlong looked at him with a murderous look.


Meanwhile Octron had dropped Toothless at the outskirts of Leefside village.

"Well, here we are," he said cheerfully. "Leefside Village, Arlong should be around here somewhere."

"Oh, great, thanks," said Toothless.

"No problem. Bye now."

Octron then jumped back into the water and swam away.

Toothless smiled. "It even bother asking me my name, not the best security on the world."

He then immediately ran off towards the village in order to rescue Snotlout.


Unfortunately, Snotlout was no longer there but at the compound that Toothless had just left. Snotlout was now completely at the mercy of Arlong and his cronies. Chew had just dumped him at Arlong's feed as he sat down on his deckchair.

"Capturing this scum is it enough to satisfy my hunger," said Arlong as he placed a foot on top of Snotlout's back.

"Then you could just let me go," said Snotlout.

Arlong then plunged a dagger in front of him. "You're one of Toothless' men. It's only natural for well-known bounty hunters to come after me."

Seablade then immediately began to inspect Toothless' cell and frowned the ropes had been cut.

Snotlout looked at them. "What made you think I know anything about this Toothless character."

"Even if you don't know him, you still must pay for defying us," said Chew. "You'll die either way."

Snotlout looked at them. "Do that and Toothless will come back here for a vengeance and he won't be alone."

"So, if I kill you Toothless will show up," Arlong smirked bringing the dagger closer to his face.

Snotlout looked at him. "Maybe, but it's not him you should be worried about."

"What I want to know is how he escaped," said Seablade as he appeared holding the ropes.

Alrong looked at him. "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is someone let him escape," he said dropping the ropes onto the floor. "I think that somebody has betrayed us. Perhaps it was Astrid and Fishlegs, who let him in so that bastard could take your head."

Many of the Fishmen that began to agree with that statement.

"Now that you mention it, those two have been acting strangely lately."

"Yeah, Astrid did help Toothless by jumping into the water."

"Don't tell me, they were working with Toothless from the start?"

"And tricked us all."

Unbeknownst them Astrid and Fishlegs had been listening to the entire conversation.

"And don't forget their chief skill is deception," Seablade reminded.

"Enough of this," said Astrid as she walked into the compound with Fishlegs directly behind her. "You should be ashamed, this is pure conjecture."

Snotlout blinked. "Astrid? Fishlegs?"

The Fishmen and then watched as the two of them began making their way towards them without a shred of fear on their faces.

"How dare you," Astrid challenge looking at them all. "You would call me a traitor, we swore that we were members of this group 8 years ago. Haven't we proven our loyalty time and again?"

Alrong looked to the two of them. "I'm sorry. It is natural for you to be upset, but you should know that I don't suspect you or Fishlegs of anything treacherous, I trust the two of you. After all we have known each other for eight years, we're just a little on edge now that's all surely the two of you can understand that. We need to focus on Toothless and his gang of bounty hunters."

He then looked at Snotlout. "Now you mention that this someone we should be more concerned about than Toothless. Now who would that be?"

Snotlout narrowed his eyes. "I'm not talking."

Astrid sighed. 'He just had to go and do that.'

Seablade looked at the two of them. "What's wrong you two, you're looking a little pale."

Fishlegs looked at him. "We were just accused of treachery, by you."

Seablade shrugged. "True enough, but we really should do something about this guy here." He then reached for the dagger and pulled it out of the ground. "Not even the two of you can save him now. Not when he defied Arlong."

Astrid scolded him. "How long? How long will I be suspected of betrayal?"

"You're too clever for your own good," said Seablade and then looked at Fishlegs. "Both of you are."

"We'll have the amount that we and Arlong agreed to soon, it doesn't make any sense for us to betray you now," said Astrid bluntly.

Snotlout looked up. "The amount they agreed to?"

"I know," said Seablade holding out the dagger. "Eight years ago, you agree to purchase Leefside village 100 million Gill, but I just can't figure it out. You your families and your village for it so why do you care for this village now? This puny little heap of houses, I thought long and hard about it, but I found this in Fishlegs' room."

Seablade held out a piece of parchment and then opened it up revealing a bloodstained map of the island.

Astrid eyes widened. "It can't be that's—"


Toothless meanwhile had finally reached Leefside then immediately asked for the whereabouts of Snotlout. However, he soon discovered that he had been captured and taken to Arlong Park.

"What? What do you mean?" he said looking at the villages. "You're saying he was captured?"

"Yeah, they took him back to Arlong Park just a little while ago," the villager quivered.

"That courageous young man stood up against Arlong and those Fishmen," said another villager. "He's probably dead by now."

Toothless grimaced. "This is bad. They won't be forgiving, he got caught after my little visit."

He then immediately ran off as quickly as he could back to Arlong Park.

"Snotlout, hold on."


Meanwhile at Arlong Park, Seablade was still holding the bloodstained map to everyone.

"This look suspiciously like a treasure map and it seems to be pointing to Leefside village," said Seablade.

"I can't believe you have the nerve to go through my personal belongings!" Fishlegs yelled as he attempted to grab the map. "That's my map and it has nothing to do with you!"

Seablade pulled the map out of his reach. "So you're angry, is there something on your mind?"

Fortunately before tensions could go any higher, Octron returned and found the carnage inside the compound.

"What is this?" Octron cried. "Why are all of these guys dead? What happened?"

"The Pirate Hunter Toothless, did it," said Arlong simply. "Why wouldn't you hear Octron, huh? This could have been prevented if you had been here."

"I've course it could have been prevented if I were here!" Octron roared as he jumped out of the water. "This is unforgivable!"

"We get it, you weren't here," said Seablade. "So you don't know where he is, is that right?"

Octron rubbed his chin. "Well, let me think about it. I saw one guy, that's right, it was a slightly suspicious Drake swordsman." He then immediately dawned on him who that mysterious Drake swordsman had been. "That's him!"

Seablade looked enraged. "You did see him you idiot! So where did he go?"

"He told me that he wanted to see Arlong so I gave him a ride to Leefside Village," said Octron.

Arlong smiled. "Excellent, that means we have any need to hurry. He's going to come straight to me."

"Sorry, Arlong, but if I had known you would have been back so soon I would have kept in here for ya," said Octron apologetically. "But he said that he was a guest and I thought I should get into the village as fast as I could."

Snotlout smiled. 'Toothless, huh? Which means if I can buy just a little more time.'

Astrid then noted the corner of her eye that Snotlout was clenching his fisther and immediately realised what he was about to do.

'Why do you keep on getting in the way?' she said as she dashed towards him. 'Everything is so close to working out.'

She then immediately pulled out her battle-axe and then slammed the flat of the blade against his face and sent him sprawling across the floor.

Snotlout lifted himself up and narrowed his eyes at her. "Damn you, Astrid! You want to fight, don't you?"

"This is your fault, Snotlout," said Astrid plainly. "You're the one who's getting in the way, this is what you get from messing with Arlong."

Snotlout spat out some blood and rose to his feet. "I can't believe I was into you, even after you stole our ship and ran off Hiccup had complete faith in you. He trusted you completely and you haven't even shown amounts of guilt how can you betray someone like that? Are you really that coldhearted?"

He then immediately turn to Fishlegs. "And you, I knew that you were wimp, but I didn't think that you were coward. I mean here you are after everything we've been through cowering behind a bunch of walking seafood platters."

"Save your breath, Snotlout," said Astrid. "It's not my fault you guys were dumb enough to be fooled by us."

"How can you say that?" Snotlout glared.

Astrid closed her eyes. "You idiots. It was going according to plan." She then immediately dropped her axe and grabbed the dagger in Seablades hand. "I'm not going to let you and your friends ruin eight long years of hard work. So long, Snotlout, it's nothing personal it's just business, you understand?"

Arlong smiled. "Well, I'll be damned. Looks like you've become a pirate when you were gone."

Snotlout looked at her. "'So long?'" He then laughed. "You think you can kill me?"

"That's right," Astrid smiled sadistically. "I wouldn't underestimate me, you know what I'm capable of."

Snotlout eyes widened. 'Looks like got no choice, I'm going have to fight my way out or else I'll be a dead man.'

Snotlout then immediately raised his fist. "Snot Smash!"

He then slammed his fist right down into the ground and he must ahead it so hard that he turned the stone floor to dust. Then a powerful gust of wind exited out of the cracks he had created spreading the dust around in a large area. The Fishmen then immediately began coughing and spluttering and the visibility diminished.

"Now is my chance," said Snotlout as he ran off.

He immediately rushed towards the water hoping to swim through it, but then suddenly appearing right in front of him was Astrid.

"I have no idea you were able to punch solid stone into sand and then create a powerful updraught to dispel it," said Astrid impressively. "Not a bad plan all things considered, but I knew you would try to escape."

"Astrid," said Snotlout. Astrid then immediately plunged the knife into Snotlout and he just stood there with his eyes widened. "Don't do this."

Finally the dust began to dispel and all the Fishmen watched as Astrid had just plunged the dagger right into Snotlout.

"It's for my business, this was my only choice," said Astrid.

Snotlout looked at his hand and saw that it was covered in blood. "Astrid, how could you?"

Astrid then removed the dagger. "Now go and die."

Snotlout stumbled for a bit and then fell into the water, the moment he struck the water the Fishmen cheered. However, unbeknownst to anyone watching from afar was Ruffnut and she had just seen Astrid kill Snotlout in cold blood.

"I can't believe it," she stared. "Astrid actually killed Snotlout and Fishlegs didn't even raise a finger to help him."

Astrid's hand was now covered in blood, no doubt belonging to he's dead Snotlout. "You wish came true, you died at sea."

Seablade then approached. "Astrid, I'm sorry for doubting you. Without question you are friends."

"Friend, huh?" said Astrid sceptically and then handed the blood he dagger back to him. "There's only one reason why I joined this group and that's to buy Leefside Village back." She then snatched Fishlegs' map from Seablade and then went over to join Fishlegs. "You got that? Just business, not friends."

The two of them then immediately walked past Arlong. "Keep your end of the deal and I will have that Gil soon," she added.

"Yes, of course," said Alrong. "I would rather cut my stomach open and die then break a promise concerning money. That is the kind of man I am."

"Glad to hear it, Arlong, you know the score," said Astrid.

Seablade looked at the bloody he dagger. "She gives me the creeps."

Arlong laughed. "What a great woman she's become."

Ruffnut was completely shocked with everything. "He's dead, she really killed him. That witch killed him!"

She then immediately ran off.


Meanwhile Hiccup and the others had finally come into view of the island and could see Arlong Park in the distance.

"There it is, Arlong Park," said Hiccup. He then looked down at Moohoo. "Just give us on a straight course."

Tuffnut rubbed his chin. "Don't you think you guys really overdid it with the attacks?"

It turned out that he was right, Moohoo was still a bit dizzy and began to drift away from Arlong Park.

"You're going the wrong way!" Hiccup yelled. "Go to the left!"

However, Moohoo kept on reeling off to the right and was heading straight towards the cliffs. All three of them immediately screamed as they were about to slam into it.


Meanwhile Astrid and Fishlegs made their way inside a large room which was filled to the brim of sea charts and books of navigation. Right in front of them was a desk filled with pens, rulers and other equipment to make sea charts.

Fishlegs began to cry. "You know it's strange, I made it all this way. I have endured eight long years since that day."


Fishlegs began to remember when he was just a small boy, Arlong was holding him by the hair and had forced him into a room.

"All right, as of today this will be your room," he said. "Your desk, your pens, everything you'll need is in here."


Back in the present, Astrid placed a gentle hand on Fishlegs' shoulder. Her arrest was now covered in a bandage and it appeared to have bloodstains right down the middle.

"Eight years I persevered, I had no choice but to endure it," Fishlegs cried.

Then suddenly the entire ground began to shake.


That shaking was caused when Moohoo slammed into the side of the cliff, as a result a massive column of water erupted into the air. Then shooting straight out of it was Hiccup on the others on Ragnar's boat and all them were screaming.

They were now flying directly over the island, over the forest and all them were bit shaken up.

"It's almost like with flying," said Tuffnut.

"Almost?" Hiccup questioned.

"We are flying you idiot!" Ragnar yelled.

"No, we're falling!" Hiccup corrected as they hit the forest.

At the same time Toothless was making his way towards Arlong Park as quickly as he could when he heard the commotion. He turned and his eyes widened, because skimming across the ground was Ragnar's boat and it wasn't stopping.

The boat slammed into Toothless and kept on going until exited the forest and landed on an open plain. It only came to a stop when it slammed right into large hall smashing into a hill.

Hiccup lifted himself up. "Okay, who's not dead?"

There were a lot of groaning noises.

"What were you doing?" Toothless demanded as he climbed out of the rubble.

"Well, we're here to pickup Astrid and Fishlegs," said Hiccup simply. "Have you found them yet and where is Snotlout and Ruffnt?"

Toothless looked up. "Snotlout? Oh, no, come on, we've got to hurry."

"Why? What's wrong?" Hiccup asked now looking concerned.

"That muttonhead has gotten caught by Arlong, we've got a hurry before they kill him," said Toothless.

"He's already dead," said a sad voice.

Immediately they looked up and saw Ruffnut looking at them with tears in her eyes. "We're too late." She then fell to her knees. "Snotlout is dead Astrid murdered him!"

Everyone's eyes widened in shock.
