Currently, we were fighting the Dragon Hunters; Heather had given us a heads up that they were caging a bunch of dragons and keeping them on their ship. So, Hiccup being Hiccup, came up with a plan and that brings us to the present where we were shooting at the ship.

"Fishlegs, flaming boulder!" Hiccup yelled a warning as the Hunters sent just that in the Viking's direction. Meatlug's eyes widened and sparkled as the Boulder came at them and she swallowed it whole.

"See, girl? I told you we'd have time to eat." Fishlegs grinned and patted his dragon who was still in bliss of eating such a big rock.

"Arrows coming next, guys!" Astrid yelled to us. "(Y/n), go for it!"

"You heard the woman," I said to Spike who rose up high in the sky then barrel-rolled down at the ship while firing multiple plasma blasts; making a smokescreen for Hiccup and Toothless who set a bunch of dragons free. Once those two were in the air again a yell from Dagur caught my attention.

"They're down! Pull them aboard!"

"Okay, Snotlout, you gas, I spark." Tuff said.

I was very confused until I saw Snotlout riding the other half of the Zippleback while Ruff and Hookfang were in the water

"Yeah, I got it, I got it! Okay." Snotlout whined and then the two blasted the boat before they were pulled aboard.

"Yes! How awesome are we?" Tuff yelled.

"Um, let me think." Snotlout pretending to think before cheering. "Totally awesome! That's who we are."

"All right!"

"Hey!" Ruff yelled, still stuck in a net. "When you're done handing out the Viking of the Year awards, you mind getting us outta here?"

"Shall we?" Snotlout asked.

"We shall." Tuff agreed and helped untangle the two and got them back in the air. "That was indescribable."

"You! Get off my dragon." Ruff yelled and flew Hookfang close to the Zippleback.

"Uh, actually, my boy Snot and I are gonna hang for a bit." Tuff said casually and checked his nails. "You know, relive the glory of battle. You don't mind riding Hookfang, do you, sis?"

"Ugh! Come on, Hookfang." Ruff scoffed and pulled the Monstrous Nightmare away.

"Finish her!" Ryker yelled and pointed to Astrid and Stormfly.

"Single spine shot, girl." I heard Astrid tell her dragon who shot a spine that grazed Windshear.

Not gonna lie, I know Heather is getting close to meeting the one who's the leader of the Dragon Hunters, but recently things have just been getting way more dangerous. I do want to find out as much as possible but I don't want Heather risking her life for it. I was okay when it was just the odd battle and freeing dragons, but Ryker's plans have been getting a lot more complex, to the point that I would suspect a mole because of how well we dragon riders 'predict' his moves.

"Ooh! Did you see that look on Ryker's face?" Snotlout laughed as he and Tuff recounted the story for the millionth time after returning to the Edge. "I was like, 'Tuff, now!' And, you were like..."

"'Your wish is my command, Snotman!'And then..." Tuff continued

"BAM!" They yelled and mimicked explosions with their hands.

"But can you recite it in French?" I asked them with a smirk.

"Challenge accepted!" Tuffnut yelled as starting spouting the few French words he knew.
