How You Doing Insane Gang?

Its been a while but there should be a new Road to Victory chapter this weekend for now enjoy chapter 40. This is based on the RTTE Time to Skrill episode and I thought this should have been added to the episode. So consider this a what if moment.

Disclaimer: I don't own HTTYD franchise.

The Skrill wanted revenge namely on Hiccup and Toothless. As the Skrill attacked Berk the Auxiliary team met with it first although it didn't take long for the dragon to incapacitate them it gave enough time for the gang to swoop in and save the day.

"Oh Thor that is one angry dragon!" Fishlegs exclaimed worriedly.

"Astrid lead your team in putting out the fires, everyone else follow me." Hiccup commanded all of them.

Hiccup led precision attacks on the dragon but soon the others went down and now it was only the angry Skrill and Hiccup. The Skrill was only interested in the duo.

"Okay Bud, if its us he wants then us he gets, plasma blast!" He half mutters.

At the same time the Skrill launched a lightning bolt. Both attacks met each other in the middle and exploded.

Hiccup was thrown from Toothless's back as he couldn't react quick enough to deploy his new wings. He hit the ground hard on his right side. The wind was momentarily sucked out of him as he was trying to suck in air. Letting out a pained groan he shook his head to clear out the fuzziness.

Hiccup carefully rolled on his stomach as he was in the position to push himself up with his arms. Something crackling was not to far off in front of him as Hiccup knew the dragon was charging for another attack. Seconds later a bolt came soaring heading towards him. Hiccup rolled to the side as the lightning bolt struck the ground turning the once soft green grass black and hard where he laid only moments ago.

The second strike was a lot less forgiving as Hiccup didn't have time to roll out of the way, he was only lucky enough to raise his Gronckle Iron shield to block it. The large bolt was absorbed into the shield as Hiccup let out a large grunt in pain and exasperation. He had to clench his jaw tight trying not to scream in pain but it slipped through his teeth. His left arm holding the shield felt as if it was on fire as the rest of his body felt liquified as the shock coursed through his body.

Only did the agonizing pain stop was when Toothless attacked the Skrill from behind shooting well placed plasma blasts of his own. The Skrill roared angrily and then retreated into the safety of the clouds.

Hiccup watched blearily as it disappeared into the sky. He didn't register the calls of Astrid or the rest of the gang as his ears were ringing; pounding into his skull giving him a skull splitting headache. The shield thumped to the ground in front of him as he was on his knees. Hiccup took one last glance at Toothless cooing in concern before him as blackness swam his vision and he fell to the ground.

An hour a half later he heard the sweetest voice in the whole of Midgard calling his name, he thought he was finally in Valhalla and the voice belonged to a beautiful Valkyrie. Hiccup groaned though as light shined through his closed eye lids and he groaned. The world came into focus again as he was in Gothi's hut.

The voice he heard was to no surprise belonged to Astrid.

No wonder why I thought I heard a Valkyrie Astrid basically is one to me. Hiccup thought slowly.

Hiccup tried to sit up but a shooting pain in his left arm stopped him as he winced.

"What happened?"

Stoick came up to the other side of the bed.

"The Skrill struck you with a lighting bolt, your lucky that you weren't killed Hiccup."

Hiccup took his left arm out from under the thin blanket as he rubbed the top of his head.

"Okay so the usual then?"

No one responded as they seemed to be staring at something on him.

He raised his eyebrow confused. "What?" "Is there something on me?"

Astrid took his left hand as she straightened out his arm.

"Hic...you arm..."

Then Hiccup actually looked at his left arm for once as he pushed up his red sleeve on his tunic. Branch/fern patterns dotted up his arm starting at his inner forearm as it snaked around onto the outter side and traveled the rest of the way up his arm.

He instantly pulled at the back of his shirt to lift it up over his head as his pendant of Thor's hammer thudded against his chest.

The gang gasped as they all saw the extent of the figure. It traveled all the way up his shoulder and branched out to cover only a little bit of his chest as almost didn't reach his the half of his left pectoral.

Hiccup stared down with wide eyes at the huge marking. He checked the rest of his body to find no other figures.

"Snotlout, go get Gothi now."

Snotlout didn't even make a complaint as he ran out to find the old healer.

Minutes later Snotlout returned with Gothi in tow.

"Gothi what is wrong with Hiccup's arm?" Stoick asked her urgently.

Hiccup kept on twisting his arm this way and that to see all of it. Most branches at the bottom were more red and then once you keep traveling up his arm it gets pinker.

Goth sighed as she wrote in her sand.

"What is she saying Fishlegs?" Stoick asked him.

The only people who know how to read Gothi's scripture was Gobber and Fishlegs.

"She says the figure on his arm is not harmful, it was the result of the lightning coursing through his body."

"If it was the lightning then how come he isn't covered with these figures?" Astrid asked.

"It makes sense, I blocked most of the lightning with my shield that I was hold with my left hand, when I was struck it felt like my left arm was mostly on fire." Hiccup told them.

"Will it ever go away Gothi?" Stoick asked her finally.

She scribbled with her stick as it scratched against the worn floorboards.

"She says only time will tell."

"So I could have this forever?" Hiccup asked.

Before anyway replied to him the twins interrupted him.

"Cool!" They both shouted at once as they banged helmets.

"For what its worth Hiccup it is cool looking." Snotlout told him.

Hiccup snorted. "Thanks Snotlout."

"Well I better get back to work on repairs, the stupid dragon destroyed my house." Stoick told them.

"Yeah we can help with some repairs and then we have to go find that Skrill before Dagur and Ryker get their hands on it." Hiccup said.

He slipped his tunic up over his head again, he didn't bother putting on his riding leather yet as he wanted to help with some repairs first.

The others left to start repairing some of the charred houses. All that remained in the hut was Hiccup and Astrid.

"Are you sure your arm is okay?" She asked him.

"Yeah, I mean its a little sore but other than that I'm fine."

"Just don't push your self too hard."

"Don't worry about me, we will help with some of the repairs and then go hunt the Skrill again."

"Sounds like a plan."

Astrid kissed the side of his head before heading out the door. Hiccup rolled up his sleeve again after making sure she left and traced the pattern there. The angry redness died away some making the whole figure a pale pink. During the repairs Hiccup started favoring his right hand. Whenever he tried to lift something heavy with his left arm he would let out a quiet groan and quickly shift his arms. No one else noticed this but being the observer Astrid is she took quiet a notice.

In the night back at Dragon's Edge after defeating Dagur once again Hiccup was in his hut. Toothless was snoozing on his bed rock fast asleep. Hiccup had his tunic and leathers off looking at his arm in his iron shield. Astrid softly knocked on his door.

"Come in."

Astrid opened up and sighed.

"Still looking at that arm I see."

Hiccup grunted. "When is it going to go away?"

Astrid walked up to him and put her head on his left shoulder. She traced the pattern absentmindedly.

"Why do you want it to go away so badly?"

Hiccup growled. "I already lost my left leg, do I really need a heavily scarred arm too?"

Astrid took her unoccupied left hand and laced it with his left.

"Hiccup your arm and your leg shows to everyone how you conquered over something that everyone else feared and overcame it even at the possibility of losing your life."

"That's something you should be proud of, not to hide them away."

"You took on that Skrill to yet again save Berk from more damage by protecting the gang, your father, Toothless and me." "Be proud of what you've done Hiccup."

Hiccup rested his forehead on top of Astrid's head for a few moments.

"Thank you."

Astrid lifted her head fro her place on his shoulder. She gave him a short kiss on the lips telling him you're welcome.

Others have done one-shots but with Defenders of Berk. All of you who don't know the figure on Hiccup's arm was a Lichtenberg figure which is what a person gets if they were hit by electricity aka lightning.

Also for those sneaky Insaners who caught on to Hiccup's new necklace which will be explained in another one-shot in the future.
