How You Doing Insane Gang!

This one-shot takes place in season 2 when Stormfly was taken by Ryker.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

"She should have been back by now." Hiccup got up from leaning against the clubhouse table.

Fishlegs seemed hesitant. "I don't know Hiccup, the storm is coming up pretty fast."

"Then let's hurry before it reaches us. Toothless!"

Fishlegs sighed, "I was afraid you would say that."

The further they got from the Edge the more claps of thunder was heard. Rain hailed down around them making their saddles slippery and hands numb.

"Alright! Spread out!" They swept in a line scoping the vast ocean for a single rider and possibly a dragon.

Hiccup stayed hunched over Toothless, his eyes were blown wide with fear. Astrid...Astrid...Astrid...where in the name of Thor are you? I can't do this without you. I didn't even get to te—There!

"Wait! Toothless slowdown! You see that bud?"

An object was bobbing in the water as the waves get rougher with the raging storm upon them. It disappeared before Hiccup could get a good look. Not taking any chances, he dove under. He tried to keep his eyes open in the stinging cold. There she was, sinking deeper and deeper into the darkness. Astrid must have finally passed out from exhaustion.

Grabbing her by the arm, he was able to haul her body across his lap. Hiccup pulled her body against him to offer some heat. Her lips were blue and her skin shone a sickening pale white. He placed a hand on her cheek.

"Astrid, Astrid, come on open your eyes." He takes a deep breath to call over to Fishlegs who was the closest one to him. "I got her!"

"He got her!" Fishlegs booming voice reached the others as they raced back to get Astrid somewhere warm. No one questioned it when Hiccup landed outside his own hut.

"Snotlout, start a fire in the forge, it's the only place that will heat up enough. Twins get me blankets, as many as you can."

Fishlegs followed Hiccup in carrying Astrid bridal style. "Her body temperature needs to adjust gradually Hiccup if it warms up to quickly she will die."

Snotlout worked on billowing the fire and the place eventually became warmer.

Hiccup stripped his bedding and began laying it on the floor instead to have Fishlegs place her down gently.

"Has she woken up yet?" Snotlout asked.

Hiccup shook his head and unhooked Astrid's shoulder pads and skirt. The twins came bursting in carrying as many blankets as possible. It's a miracle that they could see through the thick plush.

"Woah, are you sure you should be doing that H? She's going to punch you when she wakes up." Tuffnut commented on the state of undress.

A small blush blossomed on his cheeks. "It'll be faster for her to warm up if she doesn't have wet clothes on her." He said hurriedly. He proceeded to cover her with as many blankets as he could.

The others began to settle down around her, each wrapping their own blankets around themselves to warm up after all the heavy pounding of rain and sleet wasn't letting up. Hiccup unbuckled his own water-logged armor, now realizing how cold he really was. His hair stayed plastered to his forehead, shaking his head like a wet dog, he peeled off his shirt and was making his way to untie his pants.

"Ow! Ruff! What the hell?"

Hiccup picked up the heavy boot that nailed him in the head.

"What? I didn't have any money on me and you were putting on a show."

Hiccup tossed the boot back to her. "Oh, my Thor."

He silently took the blanket handed over by Snotlout and decided to tuck his legs into Astrid's blanket mass.

"Thanks, guys for following me out, I just knew something was wrong." He said breaking the silence.

Snotlout rolled his eyes. "No duh, she's our friend too you know."

Coughing, Astrid sat straight up trying to get the water out of her lungs.

A chorus of Astrid went around the room. Hiccup was by her side instantly, rubbing her back and drawing goosebumps on her flesh.

Hiccup turned his head towards Snotlout. "There's a water skin in my desk."

Retrieving it and handing it to Hiccup, he uncorked the cap and held it up to Astrid.

She placed her hand over his on the skin and took several big gulps. Trying to get rid of the burning salt in the back of her throat.

Once she was done, Hiccup corked it and set it down by his side.

"Thank Thor you're okay Astrid," Fishlegs commented relieved.

Astrid pulled up one of the blankets up and over her nose, her eyes were slits as it appeared she was sensitive to the moving flames of the forge.

Hiccup ceased rubbing her back and instead trailed slow soothing lines up and down her spine. "What's the last thing you remember?"

"Dragon Hunters."

Gasps were heard as Hiccup's eyes widened.

Snotlout shook his head and held up his hands in denial. "Dragon hunters? Astrid are you sure you didn't hit your head out in the sea?"

Astrid's eyebrows knitted together, giving him a glare. Ruffnut elbowed him in the diaphragm, making him lose his breath.

"Okay, maybe you didn't" He wheezed out.

"They had these arrows and once Stormfly was hit she went down, I remember bits and pieces of being dropped into the ocean but that's it."

Tuffnut crossed his arms. "That's it huh? Imagine, a huge thick guy with a gnarly mustache shouting at poor Astrid and Stormfly in some terrible accent that no one can really understand."

Ruffnut nodded. "I bet he was bald too and would have a cool skull as a belt, ooh ooh, maybe as a helmet."

Astrid looked impressed, "Actually yeah, his name's Ryker."

The twins head banged while Tuffnut shouted, "Nailed it!"

Hiccup's eyes peered around the room. "Okay then, first thing tomorrow we go to the island that Astrid was attacked and look for clues."

Astrid weakly shoved his shoulder. "No! Let's go now, we don't know how far they're taking her."

Hiccup stilled his hand on her back and instead reached around to grip her hip. "You almost drowned Astrid, you've been out there for Gods know how long, we just need to rest and regroup before going back out there."

Fishlegs butted in, "Plus the storm is still raging outside and I don't know about you guys but I don't fancy getting wet again."

At the mention of being soaked a shiver past through Astrid. Relenting, she drew the blankets tighter around her.

"Fine, but first thing in the morning, we're setting out."

Hiccup continued his ministrations. "Deal."

Astrid turned over to go back to sleep before taking into account that she was only in her undergarments.

"Guys...where are my clothes?"

Tuffnut pointed a frightened finger at Hiccup.

I don't know why it took me so long for this one-shot but its here. A lot more gang fluff than Hiccstrid but still great.
