My Brave Pony: How to Train Your Dragon

Today the Viking teens and their majesties were flying through thick clouds so they could trust their dragons more. However the twins were not liking this idea.

"How are we supposed to see up here?" Ruffnut asked.

"You're not. That's the whole point." Hiccup said flying over to them. Their majesties and Dusk and Dawn came over to them as well.

"Oh. No, I still don't get it." Tuffnut said.

"When you two can't see, you have to trust Barf and Belch to see for you. Like this." Hiccup said then flew into the thicker and darker clouds.

"Why does he always have to speak in riddles?" Tuffnut said in frustration.

"I say we trust us." Ruffnut suggested.

"Yeah, I'm with you, sister." Tuffnut agreed.

"Barf, up." Ruffnut ordered.

"Belch down." Ruffnut ordered at the same time.

Barf and Belch tries to perform both jobs at once. This caused them to spin out of control and they slammed right into Fishlegs and Meatlug. "Oooh, that hurts." Celestia winced as she and their dragon flew down towards them. The three riders are knocked off of their dragons and fall into a dead tree. Once they got up they saw that the branch supporting them was breaking.

"Belch, get me down!" Tuffnut ordered.

"Barf, go for help!" Ruffnut ordered at the same time.

This leads to Barf and Belch to once again spin out of control. Fishlegs gave a whistle that caused Meatlug to look at him. He made a couple of hand gestures that made her go down and pick up the twins just before the branch broke. Hiccup saw the whole thing and flew down towards Fishlegs.

"It worked. I can't believe it actually worked!" Fishlegs yelled then the branch began to snap from under him.

Luckily for him Hiccup flew down just in time and he landed on Toothless' back.

"What was that hand thing you were doing?" Hiccup asked.

"If you must know, I have been crafting some rudimentary hand signals for Meatlug just in case we get separated, and they seem to have been well received." Fishlegs explained as he gestured to the Meatlug as she carried the twins.

"Hand signals, that's incredible, Fishlegs!" Hiccup exclaimed.

"Yeah, I know!" Fishlegs said excitedly

"We need to start working on those right away." Hiccup said.

Later that day in the arena the Viking teens were working on their own hand signals for their dragons. Melody was in Celestias' arms to watch. "This is what we'll do with you one day."

Hiccup was standing in front of Toothless with a shield around his left arm.

"Toothless, battle ready!" Hiccup ordered squeezing his hand into a fist. Toothless then got ready to pounce. "Toothless, plasma blast!" Hiccup held his hand up and pointed a finger downwards and simultaneously threw his shield upwards. Toothless then shot a plasma blast blasting the shield to pieces. Good job bud! Smile!" He said bring a finger to his mouth and moved it across his lips. Toothless then gave him a Toothless smile.

"Not bad." Astrid said watching the two of them and turned to face Stormfly. "Stormfly, spine shot!" Astrid ordered, holding her hands out at arm's length. Stormfly shot a several spikes. The spikes dug into the ground in a perfect ring around Astrid. "Well that's better than last time." She murmured, pulling one out from her boot, not seeming to have been injured.

Snotlout's laughed and looked at Hookfang. "Hookfang, annihilate!" He commanded, pointing at a wooden board with his fist. Hookfang launched his fire right at Snotlout, knocking him into the board with the force of the blast.

"Bulls-eye." Tuffnut said smiling.

"Meatlug, hug!" Fishlegs told her, wrapping his arms around himself. Meatlug enthusiastically pounced on him, licking his face repeatedly.

"Hmm, that could actually be useful." Hiccup nodded and then turned to look at Ruffnut and Tuffnut. " Ruff, Tuff, your turn."

"Barf, go." Ruffnut ordered pointed away from them.

"Belch, come." Tuffnut ordered made a 'come here' gesture with both hands.

Barf and Belch tried to split up again but the heads came slapping back together. The twins glared at each other then gave another order.

"Belch, ground." Tuffnut ordered pointed down.

"Barf, sky." Ruffnut ordered pointed up.

Barf and Belch attempted to follow both commands but was only able to do a back flip in the air and came crashing back to the ground.

"Haha! I win!" Tuffnut cheered.

"What do you think you're doing to my dragon?" Ruffnut asked.

"Your dragon? Pa-lease, you've been breathing in Barf's gas again." Tuffnut said.

"Yeah, so?" Ruffnut asked glaring at her brother.

"Guys, guys." Hiccup said caught their attention. "Barf and Belch is one dragon. You have to use one signal at a time. Your majesties would you like to show them?"

"Certainly." they said in unison. Melody cried a little and crawled onto Celestias' shoulder.

Dusk and Dawn looked and them. "Dusk, Dawn. Fly."

The Zippleback flew into the air. "Now, spin." their majesties said moving their fingers in the circle. Their Zippleback flew in the shape of the cyclone. "Dusk, gas!" Celesto pointed to his mouth and Dusk let out some gas. The gas, with the motion of the dragon, moved in the shape of a cyclone. "Now Dawn, spark!" Celestia flicked her hands out and Dawn let out some gas, setting it a flame. Revealing a fire cyclone. "Woah..." Everyone gasped.

Dusk and Dawn landed near their riders. "Good boys." Celesto cooed.

"Good idea." Ruffnut said and as Tuffnut walked away from her. "Barf attack Tuffnut." She ordered with a pushing gesture. Barf used his head to ram Tuffnut from behind and sent him flying into Snotlout knocking them both over. "How's that?" She smirked.

"I don't think that's what Hiccup-" Fishlegs never finished that sentence because Tuffnut interrupted him.

"Belch, eat Ruffnut." Tuffnut ordered. Belch bit down on Ruffnut and lifted her slightly off the ground.

"Um, ow?" She said, muffled.

"Tuff, come on." Hiccup said.

"Whatever. Belch, drop Ruffnut."Tuffnut said and Belch let go of Ruffnut and she dropped to the ground.

Ruffnut shuddered. "I can't work like this." She said.

"Ugh, it's completely unprofessional." Tuffnut said.

"I'm taking my dragon and going home." Ruffnut said firmly.

"You touch that dragon and I'll-" Tuffnut said.

"You'll what?" Ruufnut asked glaring at him.

"I… I don't know. Don't rush me. Just, uh… uh. I'll tell you tomorrow!" Tuffnut said. Then they both ran to their dragon head and began to pull, like it would separate.

"Guys, come on. Stop, please. Leave the dragon out of it; it's over." Hiccup begged.

"Oh, it's over." Ruffnut agreed.

"Yeah, it's so over, it's under." Tuffnut said. The two of them left the arena very angry with one another, and left Barf and Belch snapping angrily at each other.

"What was that all about?" Astrid asked walking over.

Hiccup shrugged, "They'll be back." Barf and Belch continued snapping at each other until Dusk and Dawn came over and gave a small roar at them to stop it. The smaller Zippleback obeyed with a small huff.

Later that day, their majesties, Hiccup and Toothless entered Hiccup house. When they did the first thing they saw Gobber trying to put the belt with the Berk crest on it around Stoick's waist.

"Argh, suck in your gut, Stoick." Gobber said tightening the belt.

"It's sucked Gobber! It doesn't suck any more than this!" Stoick said sounding like he was in great pain.

"Ah, the ceremonial belt." Hiccup said as he and Toothless entered the house. "It's that time again?"

"Yep, tomorrow's the annual treaty signing with the Berserkers." Stoick said as he strained while Gobber still tried to fit the belt onto his waist.

"They've got to change that name." Gobber said. "When your chief's Oswald the Agreeable and you haven't been to war in fifty years?"

"Oh, please don't tell me he's bringing that lunatic kid of his." Hiccup begged.

"Dagur? Oh, he'll be here." Gobber said nodding.

"Oh great, and let me guess Dagur from breaking things." Hiccup muttered.

"Actually, no. I have a more important job for you, Celestia and Celesto. You get to hide all the dragons." Stoick said.

"From Oswald the Agreeable?" Hiccup asked rising an eyebrow.

"Hiccup, just because we've have had peace with them for fifty years doesn't mean they still can't go, well-" Stoick said trying to find the right word.

"Berserk?" Gobber asked.

"Exactly. The dragons could be seen as a sign of aggression. Better blissful than bloody I always say." Stoick said chuckling a bit.

"And the last thing we want is another Berserker skirmish." Gobber said. "They tend to play for keeps."

"So, just hide the dragons, son." Stoick said.

"Even Melody?" Celestia asked, rubbing the baby Death Songs' head.

"Yes, even Melody." Stoick added.

The next day the their majesties Viking teens, minus the twins, were flying with a huge herd of dragons. They were taking them to a spot that will be out of the Berserkers way.

"Back in line, back in line!" Snotlout ordered to some Terrible Terrors that he was herding. "Is Dagur coming? He's so cool." Snotlout asked

"Cool? Last time he was here, he used me for a knife throwing target." Hiccup said.

"That guy should be locked up in a cage." Astrid muttered.

"That's what he did to me!" Fishlegs said. "He wouldn't let me eat for three days!"

"Then he forced-fed you rotten cod heads." Snotlout said laughing.

"Thanks, I almost erased that from my memory." Fishlegs said pitifully.

"Oh dearm he's that awful?" Celestia asked.

"YEP!" Hiccup and his friends stated.

"Look out, incoming Zippleback!" Astrid warned. Barf and Belch then flew past them wildly. "Where's Ruffnut and Tuffnut?" Hiccup asked. "Someone go and get that dragon."

"I'm on it." Snotlout said and flew over Barf and Belch. He jumped off and landed on Belch.

"Snotlout, you need two riders." Hiccup said. "We'll get him." Celesto said. Dusk and Dawn flew after Barf and Belch. Dusk and Dawn flew direct over top of Barf and Belch. "That's it boys, easy." Celestia said. Their majesties lept form their dragon and landed right on Barf and Belch. Celestia landed on Barf and Celesto landed on Belch. "Alright boys, back to hiding." Their majesties grabbed the Zippleback's horns but the Zippleback shook violently and toss the two of them off. "YAAAAHHH!" Luckily, Dusk and Dawn caught them. "Thanks boys."

Hiccup looked on as Barf and Belch flew away. Astrid flow a long side him. "Wait here. I need to find the twins to get that Zippleback under control before the Berserkers-" A horn blared.

"Are here." Astrid finished.

"Great. Just great." Hiccup said.

Hiccup makes it back to the docks and ran up to Stoick to warn him about Barf and Belch.

"Dad, there's some-" Hiccup started.

"Not now, son. Oswald is here." Stoick said cutting him off.

They saw Berserker's ship sailing towards them. They could tell they were Berserker ships because on the sails was an image of a Skrill which was the Berserker crest. One of the Berserker boats landed in front of the dock and laid out a plank so Oswald and the others could come down. A Berserker stood up and held a spear in the air.

"Presenting the high chief of the Berserker tribe; cracker of skulls, slayer of beasts, the great and fearsome-"

"Oswald the Agreeable?" Ragnar and Gobber said at the same time confused.

"Dagur the Deranged!" He finished.

Dagur stood behind him and spit off the edge of the boat. He turned towards then and chuckled his usual, sinister chuckle.

"Dagur?" Stoick asked.

"Deranged?" Gobber asked.

"Oh, no." Hiccup said. Dagur then throw a knife towards Hiccup. The knife flew over his head. "Oh, perfect." Hiccup muttered. Dagur then walked down the plank and towards us.

"Dagur? Where's your father?" Stoick asked.

"My father had been 'retired.' He lost his taste for blood. I, on the other hand, am starving." Dagur sang then chuckled. He turned serious after a short moment then looked around, "So, where are you hiding them, Stoick?"

"Hiding what, Dagur?" Stoick asked.

"Do I look stupid to you?" Dagur asked.

"Trick question; don't answer it." Gobber whispered to Stoick.

"We both know what's going on here. I have an excellent authority that you're amassing an army of dragons." Dagur said pointing an odd shaped battle axe at them.

"Excellent authority?" Stoick asked. "And who would that be, Dagur?"

"Never mind, just know that if I find it to be true than my armada will attack with the force of 50,000 brave Berserker soldiers." Dagur said and his soldiers stood to attention.

"Stand down, Dagur. There won't be any need for the armada. Now let's get to the treaty." Stoick said and Hiccup ran towards the village.

"Yes, let's." Dagur said strapping his battle axe to his back. "According to the treat, my visit starts with a tour of berk, the armoury, the feast in the great hall, the killing arena. You do still kill dragons here, Hmm?" He said counting them off his fingers.

"Your father never found the tour necessary." Stoick said.

"As you can see, I'm not my father. Am I?" Dagur taunted. The two stared at each other and then Dagur smirked. Stoick reached for the sword on his belt but Gobber stopped him.

"Not in front of the armada." Gobber warned pointing at the hundreds of Berserker ships out at sea.

Meanwhile Hiccup ran into the village panicking.

"Oh, this is bad, this is bad. This is really bad. We have to find that Zippleback!" Hiccup said as they ran.

Astrid then pulled them aside. "Guys we have a problem." She said.

"Oh yeah, you're telling me? Dagur's the new Berserker chief!" Hiccup said.

"What?" Astrid gasped.

"Yeah, his father 'retired'!" Hiccup said..

"And he thinks we're hiding dragons." Hiccup explained.

"Well, we kind of are. Which brings us to our next problem." Astrid said pointing down.

Hiccup looked down and saw a fresh Hideous Zippleback foot prints. "Huh, Barf? Belch? Here?" Hiccup gasped. They heard a roar and saw Barf and Belch eating a basket of fish. They looked fever ahead and saw Stoick, Gobber and Dagur walking towards them. Without a moment thought the three of them ran up to Barf and Belch and lifted the basket of fish out of the way and Barf and Belch followed them. They were just in time because five seconds later Dagur would have seen them.

"And we're walking, walking." Gobber said. They then stopped outside the food storage house. "Here we have our food storage. It's where we... well."

"Ooh, ooh! Let me guess... store your food." Dagur said rolling his eyes.

"No wonder they made him chief." Gobber muttered.

They then entered the food storage house just as Barf and Belch ran past with Hiccup and their majesties on their tails.

"Barf, Belch, come back here!" Celesto whispered. The second they ran past Dagur walked out. "Boring!" Dagur sang. "I want to see the dragon killing things!"

"Follow me." Stoick muttered and they made their way to the armory.

"Where did they go?" Astrid asked panicking.

"I have no idea. You keep looking, and I'll go warn my dad." Hiccup said.

Then he ran towards the armory leaving Astrid behind.

Meanwhile in the armory, Dagur got his hands on a sword and begin to swing it around.

"You want some of this, Gronckle? How 'bout you, Nadder? That's right; plead. Plead for your pathetic dragon lives." Dagur said and threw the sword into a shield between Stoick and Gobber.

"He's really got a handle on that whole "deranged" thing." Gobber said.

"I'm about to make him eat this sword." Stoick said and pulled the sword from the shield. Dagur had already gotten a hold of his own sword and swung it around wildly.

"Why don't we get to signing that treaty now?" Gobber asked quickly and put a hand in front of him.

"Sounds like my father." Dagur muttered. "'Sign the treaty, Dagur.' 'Leave that chicken alone, Dagur!' 'Ooh, ooh! Put down that axe, Dagur!'" He mocked.

"Your father was a great man, and I'll not have you disrespect him." Stoick said stepped foward.

"My father was… a coward. I intend to return the Berserkers to their former glory. Something he was… incapable of doing."

Barf and Belch ran past the door outside with Astrid following them. "Zippleback." Stoick breathed.

"I knew it! Where is it?" Dagur said as drew the sword and pointed it around towards the door. "Let me kill it!"

Gobber feigned laughter and quickly shut the door. "He's joking Dagur! That Stoick, always the prankster." He said then he placed his hook on his shoulder. "Tell me Dagur, what are some of your deranged plans for the Berserker tribe?"

Meanwhile Hiccup was outside the armory looking for Barf and Belch.

"Barf? Belch?" Hiccup whispered. He then looked up and saw Barf and Belch on the roof of the armory looking down at them and somehow Melody is with them?!

"Melody?! What are you doing here?!" Celestia hissed. The baby Death Song flew into her arms and whimpered. "She didn't want to be away from you." Hiccup said.

"Oh Melody. You have to. To be safe." Celestia cooed. Melody cooed and flew back onto Barf and Belch. "Guys you can't be here!" Hiccup whispered.

"Oh, come on. We need to think like Ruffnut and Tuffnut, I can't believe I just said that. Barf sky!" He ordered and began to try and wave them off but they didn't move.

They then heard Dagur's voice came closer to the door and it opened. Hiccup winced as Dagur opened the door. "Nice weapons, very clean, no blood stains, pity. Ah, Hiccup, there you are, great."

"Dagur! I was just thinking about you. Hey, remember that time we went swimming and you tried to drown me?" Hiccup said and gave a nervous laugh.

"Oh, the laughs we had. Bored again!" Dagur said and walked past them. "Just a moment. Something is going on here." He said stopping and turned to face them.

"I can explain." Hiccup said.

"Where is it?" Dagur asked.

"Your leg Hiccup." Dagur interrupted. They looked up and saw that Barf and Belch and Melody were gone. "Never mind, I heard all about it."

"You heard all about what?" Hiccup asked.

"You. The Red Death. Defeated it all on your own." Dagur said looking at Hiccup closely and then looked at Ragnar. "I also heard that your real father was Alvin the Treacherous."

"Yeah, that's true but I'm nothing like him." Ragnar said crossing his arms.

"Then you and me have something in common." Dagur muttered and then looked at Hiccup. "But back to you and killing the Red Death."

"Wha-Me? Look at me. How is that even possible?" Hiccup asked as if it was a joke.

"Right? That's what I thought, too." Dagur said and Hiccup gave a sigh of relief. "But then I heard about the trained dragons and it got me, well, uh, kind of tingly."

"Train dragons? How would you train dragons?" Hiccup asked.

"I don't know. How would you?" Dargur asked tauntingly.

"Alright then. Whose hungry?" Hiccup asked to break the tension.

Stoick finally came outside and looked at Dagur. "It's this way, Dagur." He said.

"I said this way, Dagur!" Stoick repeated and pushed him on then turned back to Hiccup and their majesties. "You guys get those dragons dragon under control."

They all ran to the back of the armory and found out that Toothless had been pulling on Barf and Belch tails.

"We need the twins." Hiccup said.

Later that evening their majesties, Hiccup and Astrid entered the twins house.

Then Tuffnut swung down between them. He had his legs wrapped around a wooden beam. "What are you guys doing here?" Tuffnut asked.

"Hey, Tuffnut, feel like talking?" Hiccup asked.

"Um, can you come down?" Astrid asked.

"Whatever." Tuffnut said and backed flipped to the floor. "Whoa. Yeah, I love that part."

"Look, about Barf and Belch, we need you and Ruffnut to get your dragon under control." Hiccup said.

"Uh-Uh. No. No, thank you. I am officially out of the dragon business, and the sister business, and the dragon and sister business: The dristisderness." Tuffnut said.

"What's going on with you two?" Astrid asked.

"Simple. You know what this is?" Tuffnut asked holding up a spoon.

"Uh, a spoon?" Hiccup answered.

"No it's our spoon. Just like this is our dish, and our axe, and our well groomed stuff yak." Tuffnut said pointing at the stuff he mentioned. "Everything is ours. I'm sick of ours. Just once I want something to be just mine. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go pack up my half of the yak." He said as he picked up a satchel.

"Go? Where?" Hiccup asked.

"I don't know. To my dark, soggy alone place. Not to cry. This house, it has too many memories." Tuffnut said and walked out of the house.

"Tuff!" Hiccup yelled as the three of them watched him walk away.

"Dark, soggy alone place?" Astrid asked.

"Yeah, I really don't want to know." Hiccup said.

Later that night, Hiccup and their majesties joined Stoick, Gobber and Dagur as they feast with the Berserkers in the great hall.

"Did you get that Zippleback under control?" Stoick asked in a whisper.

"We're working on it." Hiccup whispered.

"A toast! To death in battle!" Dagur said and raised his mug into the air.

The rest of the Vikings stood up with their mugs in the air and cheered "To your father! To Oswald!" Gobber said.

Dagur sat back down with a glare on his face. "Fine, whatever. 'To Oswald! To Oswald! To Oswald!' Bladady Bladady Bla!" He mocked then got out a knife and drove into the bowl sitting in front of him with absolute anger coursing through him.

"Well, on that cheery note, shall we sign the treaty and send you on your way?" Gobber suggested holding out a piece of parchment with Norse letters on it.

"Great idea! Let's sign that treat. Bring us the dragon's blood!" Dagur announced.

"Uh, did you say dragon's blood?" Hiccup asked.

"Well, this is going to be fun." Ragnar muttered.

Stoick gave somewhat of a nervous laugh and stood up. "Don't be ridiculous, Dagur. Your father and I haven't signed in dragon's blood for years." He said.

"Why would that be a problem, Stoick? Unless, of course, you don't kill dragons anymore." Dagur said the last part tauntingly.

"We still kill dragons." Stoick said.

"The problem is; we've killed so many there isn't a dragon within two hundred miles of here." Gobber explained. Then there was a banging on the door and Barf and Belch burst through the door. "Except that one."

Barf and Belch then ran back outside. "A Zippleback! And a baby Death Song! It's a sign! A head for each chief!" Dagur laughed and pounded a fist against the table then shook Stoick by the arms with excitement. "It's going to be amazing!" He stood on the table and threw his knife down. "Tonight, we hunt dragon!"

"Yeah, Yeah, Yeah! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!" The Berserker soldiers cheered.

"You need to find those dragons before he does." Stoick whispered to Hiccup.

The next day Hiccup and the other Viking teens were flying on their dragons looking for the twins.

"Hiccup, you heard Tuffnut, he went to his dark, soggy, alone place. That could be anywhere." Astrid said.

"Not really. That could only be one place." Snotlout said and everyone gave looks of disbelief. "What?"

"Why didn't you say something?" Hiccup asked.

"Why didn't you ask?" Snotlout asked.

"Snotlout, we've been looking for them all day." Astrid said angrily.

"And?" Snotlout asked.

"And if you don't tell us right now, I'm going to throw you off that dragon!" Astrid threatened.

"No need to get violent. He's probably at the lost cavern. They used to play hide and go kill there when they were kids." Snotlout explained.

"Astrid, you and Snotlout go and check the south entrance of the cavern. Celestia, Celesto, Fishlegs and I will take the north." He said and we broke away to go to the other ends of the cavern.

"Let's go." Astrid said looking at Snotlout who raised an eyebrow. Astrid groaned knowing what he was thinking.

Once Hiccup, Ragnar and Fishlegs were at the cavern, Hiccup stood in front of the cave with a torch in his hand.

"Alright bud, do your thing. Search." Hiccup said giving him 'search' gesture. Toothless gave a low grumble and they entered the cavern.

Meanwhile Astrid and Snotlout had reached the south entrance. Astrid was leading the way with a touch in her hand.

"Pretty dark in here. If you need to hold my hand, Astrid, it's okay." Snotlout said as the entered the cavern.

"Sure Snotlout." Astrid said giving him smile.

Snotlout grabbed it without even looking. "Ooh. Soft as I thought it would be." He said. He turned to look and saw he was holding Stormfly's tail and let it go instantly.

Meanwhile Hiccup, their majesties and Fishlegs followed Toothless and saw Tuffnut leaning against a large rock.

"Tuffnut?" Hiccup said.

"Ugh, you guys. Would you quit following me?" Tuffnut said annoyed.

"Ruffnut!" Astrid called out.

"Would you quit following me?" Ruffnut's voice asked.

"Did you guys hear that?" Hiccup asked.

"Duh, it's called an echo." Snotlout said walking out behind the rock.

Then Ruffnut head poked out and Tuffnut poked his head out. It would seem that the two of them had hiding from each other but have only been a few feet apart.

"Toothless, plasma blast." Hiccup ordered. Toothless tilted his head up and fired into the air.

"What are you doing in my soggy place?" Tuffnut asked standing up.

"This is my soggy place and I'm not sharing it with you." Ruffnut responded standing up as well.

"Okay, listen, please. We need to get you guys to your dragon. It's important." Hiccup said dropping the touch.

"Melody, Barf and Belch are in real trouble." Astrid said.

"I'll go with but not with her." Tuffnut said stubbornly.

"I'm not going anywhere with her either." Ruffnut said being just as stubborn.

"Yeah! Wait, what?" Tuffnut said.

"No, you don't understand. You both have to go." Hiccup said. The two turned from each other and stared at the ground. "Guys, listen; like it or not, you are connected to each other and the two of you are connected to that dragon. Just like me with Toothless."

"And me with Stormfly." Astrid said as she pet Stormfly's nose.

"And us and Dusk and Dawn and Melody." Celestia added.

"Us too." Fishlegs added.

"We can get you another spoon, another dish, another stuffed yak; what we can't get you is another Barf and Belch and we can't get their majesties another Melody." Tuffnut sighed and the two looked away. They were both think about what Hiccup said and gave glances towards each other. "Do you think they got any of that?" He asked.

"Fine." Tuffnut said. The two spit in their palms and shook each other's hand then banged their heads together. "You know, I did spit a little more on my hand."

"They got it." Astrid said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go, we're out of time." Hiccup said.

"So why is this so important anyway?" Tuffnut asked.

"The Berserkers are holding down your dragon to use its blood for ink." Snotlout said quickly and nonchalantly. Everyone gave looks of disbelief towards his insensitivity, but he only shrugged, "What? Is that not what's happening?"

Moments later they were flying over the forest looking for Barf and Belch and Melody. Tuffnut was riding with Hiccup and Ruffnut was riding with Astrid. They then saw Barf and Belch and Melody through a clearing and tried to walk their own separate ways, which didn't work since they were attached to each other.

"Okay, let's get you guys down there." Hiccup said.

They were about to fly to the ground, but it was too late, Berserker soldiers came out of nowhere and threw ropes around their necks and dragged the two to the ground. Melody fell to the ground where a solider grabbed her.

"No!" Tuffnut yelled.

"Melody!" their majesties cried. Quickly they all dove their dragons down and hid them in the tall branches of the thick trees surrounding us. "What are we doing here? We have to get our dragon!" Tuffnut exclaimed.

"And our baby!" Celestia stated.

"We can't afford to be spotted by the Berserkers." Hiccup said.

They watch helplessly as Dagur approaches the downed Barf and Belch. Dagur pulls out his sword with relish, points it mockingly in the dragon's face, and then brought it down for a killing blow. But then he was blocked by Stoick's sword.

Dagur glared up at him. "How dare you?" He said furiously.

"How dare you? We're supposed to slay this dragon together, and that's what we'll do, in the arena, where dragon killing is done." Stoick said firmly.

Dagur glared and put his sword away in its sheath. "To the arena!" He said to his Berserker soldiers.

They then dragged Barf and Belch away. Once they were gone everyone landed on the ground.

"The chief's not going to let them kill our dragon." Tuffnut said. "Is he?" Both Ruffnut and Tuffnut asked.

"He won't have a choice unless we can figure out a plan." Hiccup said.

"I have a plan." Snotlout said. "One word: annihilate!" He made a pointed gesture just as he did in the arena. Hookfang blew fire over Snotlout's head and hit the back of his helmet and that moment. "Hookfang!" He said glaring at him.

"Or not." Astrid said.

"Actually, that could work!" Hiccup said.

In the arena, Barf and Belch were tired down unable to escape by some Berserker soldiers. Melody was still in the hands of one of them.

"According to the treaty, the killing of the dragon must be-" Gobber said reading the treaty.

"Bored!" Dagur interrupted and towards Barf and Belch with sword in hand. "I want the head on the right."

"I'm putting a stop to this. If it means war, it means war." Stoick said looking at Gobber.

Dargur approaches Barf and raised his sword ready to strike. Barf cowers and whimpers in fear and tried to break free. Melody whimpered at the sight and squirmed in the soldiers grip. "Hey!" the baby Death Song broke free and flew over to Dagur knocking him in the head. "What the- Hey!" Stoick and Gobber were shocked. Melody spit amber at Dagur hitting his arm. "What is this stuff?!"

Then, they heard Hiccup's voice. "Help! Dragon attack!" Hiccup shouted as he, Astrid and Fishlegs ran in.

"The dragons are attacking!" Astrid called out.

Hookfang sticks his head through the chain roof and Snotlout who was standing outside gave him the 'annihilate' gesture that Hookfang followed. Hookfang then blasted fire at the Berserkers who are holding Barf and Belch captive..

"What is going on?" Gobber asked.

"Gobber, dragon attack." Stoick emphasized.

It took a second to click in Gobber's head then he came to the realization. "Oh, dragon attack! Everyone out of here!" He yelled.

Stormfly, Dusk and Dawn and Meatlug then came swooping into the arena and the Berserkers soldiers readied their weapons. Astrid gave Stormfly a 'tail spine attack' command and she fired several spikes at a Berserkers soldier. Fishlegs gave Meatlug a 'hug' command and she slammed into a Berserkers soldier. Their majesties gave Dusk and Dawn the 'fire cyclone' command and they performed their cyclone and flapped their wings, making it hit the soliders.

"We must protect our honored guests." Gobber said tried to escort Dagur away from the battle.

"Run if you want, but Dagur the Deranged will not retreat!" Dagur said and turned to face the now freed Barf and Belch.

Ruffnut and Tuffnut were standing above the arena's entrance and gave them a 'gas' and 'spark' command this time one at a time. They obeyed the commands and sent Dagur flying back by a huge wall of flame. Then the twins gave them the a 'Attack' commanded and 'Bite.' The two then gave a 'come' gesture and the Barf and Belch began to walk out.

Dagur got up and saw them leaving and grabbed a spear and threw it straight at them. At that moment Toothless and Dusk and Dawn leaped into the arena and grabbed the spear in his jaws. Dusk and Dawn growled at Dagur.

"Night Furies, they do exist! And a Titan Wing Zippleback!" Dagur said.

"Back, you fiend. You will not harm my friend Dagur." Hiccup said carrying a dagger and shield. He then hit Dagur in the face with his shield to make it look like an accident then pointed down so Toothless would pick up his 'plasma blast' gesture. Toothless then fired a plasma blast and Hiccup shoved Dagur away toward the entrance and the Berserkers soldiers followed him.

"Please, Dagur, save yourself" Hiccup said. Then Toothless knocked him to the ground and Stoick ran up and pretends to unsuccessfully pull Toothless off his son by the tail. "You owe it to your people!"

"Berserkers, to the boats!" Dagur yelled as Hookfang fired down at them.

Then Dagur and the Berserkers soldiers ran out of the arena. Gobber ran out after them holding up the treaty. "What about the treaty?" He asked.

"Consider it signed!" Dagur yelled.

Once they were sure Dagur and his soldiers were gone everyone stopped fighting.

"Well done, Hiccup. I doubt we'll be seeing much more of Dagur the Deranged." Stoick said.

"Let's hope not." Hiccup said.

Later that evening everyone was cleaning up after the fake dragon attack. Stoick and Gobber told their majesties about Melodys' attack on Dagur. "She acutally fired at him?" Celesto asked.

"Yes and it made it's mark." Gobber stated.

Melody cooed and nuzzled Celesto. Celesto picked her up, "Hehe, your one amazing baby, Melody."

Melody cooed and nudged his chest. Meanwhile, Snotloud was cleaning up with the twins nearby.

"I still think Dagur's pretty cool." Snotlout said to the twins.

The twins looked at each other and grinned and ordered Barf and Belch to 'gas' and 'spark' Snotlout. His eyes widened and there was an explosion. They banged their head together affectionately and Barf and Belch followed right after.
