"What's going on?" Hiccup asked.

"Now the time has arrived, at last, my beautiful Oars!" Moria announced.

Hiccup looked at his zombie and was completely stunned by its sheer size.

At the same time, Cindry apparently lost the ability to move and was actually crying.

"Hey, Cindry, what's the matter with you?" Hogback asked frantically. "Cindry, answer me! What's going on here? This isn't funny, Cindry! Please, say something already!"

"My body, it won't move, and these tears won't stop," she said.

"Your body won't move? Do you expect me to believe that and stop the crocodile tears! If you didn't have a shadow put into your body, you would be dead, and who do you have to thank for that, huh? A zombie's purpose is only to serve its master, I made you, and I can unmake you just as easily!"

"It's strange; it would seem as if the original owner of the body is fighting back," said Heather.

"Yeah, but that person died over 10 years ago," Chopper frowned. "Does that mean a body without a soul can still have a will of its own?"

"Who can really say, even if we read every book in every library in the world, we wouldn't know."

Cindry then suddenly stumbled as if she was fighting the urge to walk.

"I will kill both of them," she said.

"There we go, that's the Cindry I know and love," Hogback smiled. "Good to have you back. Tried to buy me some time, okay. I'm getting the hell out of here."

"It's a shame; for a moment, I actually thought a miracle had happened," said Heather as she raised her hands. "It's time, Twelve Flower!"

Arms then immediately sprouted out of Cindry, and they wrapped themselves around her, trapping her in place.

Hogback cursed and then attempted to run away, but Chopper saw this and chased after him.

"You get back here!" he yelled.

"Are you kidding? Do you think I'm crazy?" he yelled back.

They then felt the entire mansion shake.

"Uh-oh, it sounds like Oars has finally returned," said Hogback.

Chopper then jumped at him and grabbed him.

"You stupid pirate deer! Why are you siding with a corpse instead of a genius? Let me go! You're not even human, to begin with, so why the hell do you even care, you monster?"

"The captain of our crew is just fine with monsters like me," said Chopper. "And cyborgs and almost get along just fine. And unlike you, our captain doesn't need to turn people into zombie slaves to get them to listen to him!"

"I don't care; let me go!" Hogback yelled as he tried to wiggle free.

"Now!" Chopper yelled at Heather.

"Certainly, leave it to me," she smiled. "Leg Flower!"

Then suddenly sprouting from the soles of Chopper's feet were pair of legs.

"Why do I suddenly feel as if I'm walking on air?" Hogback asked and then looked down to see that he was now being lifted off his feet as more began to sprout.

"Help me!" he screamed as he was lifted up into the air.

There were now roughly 50 feet up in the air, and Hogback quickly realised just how much trouble he was in.

"T-time out, Doctor Chopper, let's be reasonable," he said. "Try and consider the consequences here for a moment? If you splatter my genius brain all over the floor right now, you would be doing a disservice to the medical community."

"I don't care; that genius brain of yours is even more rotten than your zombies!" Chopper spat.

"I told you that your manner reason Doctor Chopper, can't we work something out?"

"Eat this… now, Heather-Chopper Suprax!"

Hogback began to scream as they swung to and fro before they headed straight towards the ground.

Hiccup, meanwhile, was staring at his zombie. "This guy is even bigger than a giant. Is that really my zombie?"

"You kept me waiting, haven't you, Oars?" said Moria. "It seems your body and shadow have finally fused properly. I take it that you will be obedient from now on? Let's find out, answer me who is your master?"

"Moria Gecko, you are my master," said Oars.

"No way," said Hiccup.

Moria laughed triumphantly.

Hiccup just stared at his zombie, perplexed. "Would you think you're saying? I thought you were supposed to be my shadow. You can't listen to this guy; he's everything we hate."

Oars turned and looked at him. "And who are you?"

"Now that everything is in order, let me give you your first mission," said Moria. "Take a look at your arm; I've placed wanted posters there."

Oars looked down at his left arm and indeed saw the wanted posters for the Dragon Riders stuck to it.

"These dastardly fellows are causing a ruckus on your poor master's island; they are called the Dragon Riders Pirates. Find them, crush every last one of them and then put them back on their ship. If you kill one or two of them, it's no problem. Besides, their bounties are over 100 million, so they won't fall apart after a few punches, even from you. So don't hold back; I want to see every ounce of your power. Understand?"

"You got it, Master," said Oars and then turned his eyes upon Hiccup. "And it would seem as if I found one already, the Dragon Conqueror."

Hiccup was understandably concerned; he doubted that even he could take on Oars or by himself.

"So long, Dragon!" Moria yelled as he ran away.

"What?" Hiccup yelled. "You running away? Get back here!"

"Dragon…" Oars roared as he raised his fist.

"That's my move," Hiccup gasped.

"…Fist!"

He then swung his fist down upon Hiccup, and then suddenly, the entire mansion began to shake.

In the dancing hall, everyone could see the ceiling was beginning to crack and suddenly, smashing through the ceiling, was Oars.

"Uh-oh!" said Chopper as he and Hogback began to fall.

"What now?" Hogback screamed.

"T-that's Hiccup's zombie," Chopper gasped as they fell past Oars.

"Oars!? Help!" Hogback screamed.

The floor then began to give way.

"The floor is going to collapse!" Heather yelled and quickly turned to Chopper. "Chopper over here quickly!"

"Got it!" said Chopper transforming to his animal form and kicking off Hogback to launch himself over to her.

Hogback reached the bottom floor, but that was immediately pinned down by some rubble and was soon joined by Cindry.

"That was a close one," said Chopper with a sigh of relief.

They then saw Oars walking towards them.

"That giant is Hiccup?" Heather gasped.

Chopper looked down the hall to the bottom floor. "Hogback and Cindry fell to the floor below, but it doesn't look like they're moving."

Oars was making his way through the abolished dancing hall and were walking in the path of Hogback, who was unable to move thanks to the rubble pinning him down.

"Too heavy, damnit!" said Hogback as he failed to get up.

Cindry then rose to her feet.

"Cindry, hurry up, get over here and move this rock," Hogback ordered as Oars moved closer towards them, and Cindry still didn't move. "This isn't funny, Cindry; I really need your help right now. Oars is going to crush me like a giant cockroach. I'm going to die; I'm far too smart to die! I have so much left to give! I'm your master, damnit! Why are you just standing there? Hurry!"

Chopper and Heather just looked down, and they could plainly see that Cindry was fighting the urge to obey that order.

"I can't move," she said. "My body won't move."

"Say what?!" Hogback yelled.

Oars was getting even closer towards Hogback and showed no signs of stopping.

"Enough already!" Hogback spat. "I don't want to hear any more! The only will is on the hands is the will to follow orders. So hurry up and save me! You're nothing more than a corpse with a pretty face, don't pretend you're human!"

Cindry then turned her head towards Chopper and smiled, just like the photos in Hogback's shrine, much to the surprise of him and Heather.

"Hey, I'm dying here, Cindry!" Hogback wailed. "Oars is going to stomp me!"

Oars was now directly above him and was just seconds away from squashing him.

"Oars, down here!" Hogback cried. "What we are stepping, damnit! It's me, you oaf; you'd still be dead in a block of ice right now if it wasn't for my genius!"

Oars then stepped towards him.

Snotlout was still running through the mansion in search of the others when he felt the entire place shake violently.

"That last tremor was one thing, but this feels like the whole mansion is coming down," said Snotlout as rubble fell from the ceiling.

He then looked up and suddenly saw the giant fist smashing right through the ceiling, and soon the ceiling gave way to reveal Oars on the next floor.

"It's that Hiccup zombie!" Snotlout cried and immediately ran in the opposite direction.

Oars then looked at the wanted posters on his arm and looked down at Snotlout.

Ragnar and Fishlegs were in the chapel when they saw the entire place crumbling.

"Uh-oh, that doesn't sound good," said Ragnar.

"What's going on?" Fishlegs asked.

"I don't know, but I don't like it," said Ragnar, then suddenly saw the ceiling was about to give out. "Crap, what now?"

A split second later, a giant foot smashed right through the ceiling.

"Is that thing Hiccup's zombie?" Fishlegs gulped.

"I hope so," said Ragnar.

"You hope so?" Fishlegs stared.

"Because if not, that means another giant zombie roaming the island, and I think one is enough, don't you?"

Fishlegs couldn't disagree with that and immediately looked at Astrid. "Come on, Astrid, now would be a good time to wake up."

"Is nothing we can do; we have to run for it," said Ragnar.

Unfortunately, before they could do anything, Astrid disappeared from Fishlegs' arms.

"Where did she go?" Fishlegs panicked.

"I'll give you three guesses," said Ragnar.

Moments later, they heard growling noises coming from Absalom, who was still invisible.

"I knew it," Ragnar grumbled.

"Looks like the tables have turned," said Absalom, though from the sounds of it, he was still reeling from the damage Ragnar had dealt him.

"You bastard, so you're still alive, huh?" said Ragnar. "If you want to finish this, stop hiding and bring it on."

"I think we might have other problems," said Fishlegs looking behind him.

Fishlegs was right, walking towards them was Oars, and Absalom laughed.

"Well, well, that troublemaking giant is finally under our control," he said. "In other words, you're screwed. I think I'll be taking my bride for good this time."

"Like hell, you will!" Ragnar spat. "You give Astrid back right now! Be a man and show yourself!"

"Feeling lonely, are we? Then why don't you play with Oars here?" Absalom suggested.

"Ragnar, watch out?" Fishlegs yelled.

Ragnar looked around and saw Oars' giant foot heading straight towards him.

Toothless and the others could hear the commotion coming from the main mansion.

"Hey, that the like an earthquake. What just happened?" Eret asked.

"I haven't a clue," said Skull.

"Whatever it was, it sounded big," said Tuffnut.

"You don't think that it was Hiccup's zombie, do you?" Ruffnut asked.

Toothless was looking down at his new sword and smiled but stopped when he heard another tremor coming from the main mansion.

"What is that?" Eret asked.

"No idea, but whatever it is, it's giving me goosebumps, an impressive feat considering I have no skin," said Skull.

Then moments later, they saw the wall smash, and Oars emerged.

"Oh man, it's some kind of giant monster!" Eret yelled.

"I've never seen a creature like this before!" Skull stared.

"That's not just any monster's Hiccup's zombie," said Tuffnut.

"What was he doing in the mansion? The last time we saw him, he was heading towards the woods," said Ruffnut.

"Look down there!" Eret pointed. "Someone else came out of the building, and it looks like our chef and navigator!"

Ragnar and Fishlegs and managed to survive, though only just, and were a bit shaken.

"That was close," said Fishlegs.

"No kidding, but we lost Astrid," Ragnar cursed.

"We'll find her," Fishlegs assured him.

"If they don't move, they gonna get stomped on," said Toothless.

Hiccup, meanwhile, was trying to chase Moria through the slowly collapsing mansion.

"Moria!" Hiccup yelled. "Get back here!"

"Are you running from your shadow or chasing me?" Moria asked.

"That zombie of mine is going to be a problem, but if I wanted anyone's shadows back, I'm going to have to take you down first," said Hiccup.

The chapel was now all but demolished, but Absalom was happy that he still had Astrid in his arms.

"Too bad, it looks like the last laugh belongs to me," he smiled as he looked at Astrid, who was still out cold. "She still out cold; I'll take her someplace safe. Don't you worry, it may be in private, but we will have our wedding yet, my sleeping beauty?"

The Wild Zombies had located Perona and were rather surprised to see her out cold.

"Is Mistress Perona all right?"

"I think so; she passed out but doesn't look like she was injured."

"Where's Captain Treacle? Did that guy purify him?"

"How could this have happened?"

"Let's get out of here. This mansion is good is done for. We can let the Special Zombie take care of the Dragon Riders for us."

The rest of the zombies were running around in a panic.

"This is bad, man. We've got to get out of here like right now!"

"The Special Zombie is going on a rampage!"

"I'm going back to my grave!"

"Loki is taller than the mansion! He's just stopping over everything; we could be next!"

Snotlout had made it outside and was now looking down at Oars from the bridge that connected the two mansions. He was looking for a pair of binoculars when he suddenly saw the wanted posters on his arm.

"That is not good," he gulped.

"Snotlout!" Chopper cried as he and Heather arrived.

"Hey, Heather! Chopper! We're in trouble here, big trouble," he said frantically. "That Hiccup zombie has our faces…no, wait, I mean on his arm, he has our wanted posters!"

They all knew what this meant; he was hunting for them.

"What are we going to do?" Snotlout cried. "He's going Hunters down!"

"Show yourselves! Come on out, Dragon Riders!" Oars demanded. "You cannot hide from me!"

" I get the feeling that Hiccup's zombie is going to be a real pain in the ass," Ragnar predicted.

"What, the captain turned down his own crew?" said Snotlout.

"It seems he has been given the order," said Heather.

Chopper returned to his hybrid form and looked over the bridge. "I just hope the real Hiccup is all right."

"I do not like the way things have turned," said Skull.

"Are we supposed to fight that damn thing?" said Eret.

Everyone knew, looking at Oars, that this was not going to be an easy fight, and they would be lucky to survive at all.

Toothless, for some reason, just smiled. "Looks like fun."
