You and Taran swooped below and above the swarms of arrows that flew past you. You glared at Ryker's ship. "How about we free these dragons eh bud?" You asked him. Taran nodded, still not used to the saddle on him, and dove downwards, sending a short blast of lightning to open the doors leading to the cages below deck. You jumped and pulled the chains which opened each cage on either side of you, freeing all of the dragons you found. Taran shot out of there like a flash of lightning with the other dragons, Dagur watching you in both adoration and anger. You high fived Hiccup as Toothless and Taran snorted at each other. They still weren't very trusting of each other, but you were pretty sure that after Toothless helped to save him and you explained that all of your group wanted to keep Taran safe, the skrill was coming to like his new home. Even if storms weren't exactly common. He still had his fire power of course. Just not as much as he would have during a storm. But he would stay faithful to you. You watched as Heather and Astrid stared each other down for a moment before Astrid sent a single spine towards Windshear and sent them hurtling towards the deck of Ryker and Dagur's ship. You looked down at him. He was already staring up at you. You blushed madly and flew off towards Hiccup, hearing his deranged laugh a you went.

"Hiccup we have to get Heather out of there, if I hadn't reacted her cover would've been blown!" Astrid told Hiccup as you listened in, loosening some of the straps on Taran's saddle. He nudged your chest and you chuckled, patting his head. "I wanted to weeks ago but someone stopped me!" Hiccup fired back "That was different!" "Different how?" You asked curiously, walking up with Taran behind you, equally curious about this human he didn't know. "This has gotten crazy Hiccup! And she hasn't even met up with this Viggo character!" "Dear Odin I'm glad I didn't call you that.." You sighed, patting Taran's nose. "Exactly! If we take this Viggo Grimborn character down, the entire Dragon Hunter operation will be without a leader and it'll collapse!" Hiccup told her as you, Toothless and Taran watched Tuffnut and Snotlout wrestle on the floor. 

"Ok Everyone, get your dragons ready. Heather and Viggo Grimborn are going by themselves to capture a Flightmare. We need to meet them there and take on Viggo so all of this can end." Hiccup instructed you when he and Astrid landed. You were a little surprised but tighened the straps on Taran's saddle and mounted him carefully. "You ready bud?" You asked him, stroking some of his spines before he took off. An hour or so across the ocean, Fishlegs was gushing over Heather's mapping and tracking skills. "Can we just talk about the Elephant in the sky for a second?" Tuffnut called from near the back, "No!" Hiccup shouted back, clearly frustrated. "Ok cool, so why do we think Viggo wants the Flightmare so badly?" "Maybe he likes the way the algae stuff glows when you rub it all over yourself!" You rolled your eyes and chuckled before hearing Hiccup say "You know what? You may actually not be that far off! He must be using the algae or the paralyzing spray for something!" "We could ask him ourselves!" You replied, speeding up on Taran with Astrid as she said "Yeah, if we were waiting for him before he gets there!" 

You stood silently near the cliff next to Taran, watching the single boat sail calmly towards the island, something else caught your glance out of the corner of your eye. You turned and gasped, "Hiccup!!" You called him worriedly, pointing at the approaching 4 ships on the other side of a group of some small sea stacks "Yeah and there's more!!" Fishlegs shouted as he noticed another 3 coming towards the island as well. "I thought Heather and Viggo were coming alone!" You asked him worriedly. "They were! Which probably means they weren't coming at all..." Hiccup trailed off as fire balls launched at you from the ships. You launched yourself onto Taran as he swooped from the cliff. "Ok that was a little too close!!" You shouted as the others swerved around the blazing boulders being catapulted at you. 

Dagur stood on the ship and watched as Taran edged closer in the sky. "Make sure not to hit the Skrill or (y/n)!! Just capture them!! The others, bring them down!! And don't let them out of your sight this time!!" Dagur shouted at the Dragon Hunter soliders as you dodged net after net, Taran sending lightning waves at the ship, charring the wood. You gasped as the twins hysterically flew towards you on their dragon with the Flightmare following, its paralyzing spray billowing from its mouth in attempts to eat Ruff and Tuff, who had clearly not listened to Hiccup's earlier instructions of 'don't eat the algae or get it on you'. It was pure chaos, Dagur laughing insanely as you kept dodging each net and arrow sent towards you, the weapons barely missing and getting closer to bringing you and your dragon down at each attempt. Hiccup and the others were fighting different ships and you could see Heather fighting Dragon Hunters to get to Windshear. "Guys we need to get the Flightmare to do something to help us or so help me!!" You shouted in annoyance as you barely missed being hit in the face by an arrow -afterwards hearing Dagur scream at his men "WHAT DID I TELL YOU?!"- "Yeah! we should take it in for the big win!" Tuffnut shouted at Hiccup. Your brother seemed to have one of his lightbulb moments and told you all to collect as much algae you could in bags. You did so, and when Hiccup told you to, you threw them at Dagur and Ryker's ships, just missing hitting Dagur in the face. "Damn it!!" He heard you shout before pulling next to Hiccup. "Dagur, Ryker, we'd like you to meet our friend, the Flightmare!" You announced, showing that grin Dagur had fallen so hard for. 

Turns out the trick hadn't worked, Dagur's men had captured the Flightmare and Heather had gone in to try and rescue it. You and Taran took off after her before being held off by arrows and boulders. "Heather!!" You shouted as she crashed onto the deck of the ship with Windshear. "(y/n)! Astrid! You go after Heather! Its about time this Viggo character and I were properly introduced!" He shouted. Hiccup was angry. You'd never seen him so wound up. You tried to move in closer and could see the ship getting closer and closer, Dagur glaring at Astrid and his gaze softening at your slowly approaching figure on the dragon he had once 'owned'. His gaze turned to shock when an arrow scraped your shoulder, making a deep cut. You gasped and gripped your arm "EVERY TIME!!" You shouted in anger before being told to retreat my Astrid, glaring at Dagur and his men in rage before Taran fired one last lightning blast and fled. That was the point that Dagur truly began to re think everything. Everything from 3 years ago, he had done for you. But now...you hated him for it..he could see it in your eyes. And it broke his heart.
