AAHHHHH! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DAGUR!—you know, for a villain—probably one of my favorites. He's like extremely crazy and I can't believe he killed his father (He kept mocking him in the past tense and when he was saying, "Ah, Dagur put down that ax!" yeah, that was probably how he killed him)! I mean I didn't know the guy, but Oswalt the Agreeable sounds like a pretty nice guy. I very much enjoyed that episode and I want to see a rerun of it before the next episode—which is, by the way, also going to be epic!

"…You should know better than to make a deal with me."

Stoick studied Alvin's face real hard. If it were anyone else, they'd be frightened for Hiccup and their own lives, but this was Stoick, and he had a plan. Not a secure plan, it'd only work by a slight chance, but hopefully the Gods were merciful.

"And you should know that I don't back down too easily, Alvin." He said in his authoritive voice and swung his arms up from behind, knocking the outcasts back and jumped to swing his arms under and around to the front. The outcasts tried to subdue him again, but Stoick swung his tied up arms into their faces and with a quick lash of a sword, the rope broke and Stoick's bound hands were free.

"That's your plan?! I didn't know you'd be willing to sacrifice y'er own son." Alvin laughed in unbelief.

"Who said this was my entire plan?" Stoick come backed with.

Toothless roared and jumped unto the boat from up out of the water; water spewing onto the deck as he did so. He swung his tail and hit Alvin square in the face, flinging him over the edge and into the water. Hiccup sat where he was dropped, a little shock, but recovered when Stoick grabbed him and jumped on Toothless.

"Burn the ship!" Stoick ordered to the teens waiting, and they got right to it.

Ruffnut and Tuffnut went first, Ruffnut spraying the gas and when in the clear, Tuffnut sparking it. They laughed and fist pumped when the boat started to burn up in flames.

"You call that destruction? I'll show you destruction!" Snotlout called out as he and Hookfang dove down and landed on the ship. Hookfang lit himself up and started to shoot fire at everything in sight. The fire increased rapidly as it was giving more fuel; Astrid and Stormfly shot as many blasts as Stormfly could, purposely running into the sails and knocking down the poles that stabilized the latter.

Meatlug fly in towards the ship and Fishlegs looked a little scared at what she might do.

"Uh, Meatlug…?" he asked worriedly. Meatlug just ran into the side and came out the other, completely destroying it into a ball of fire as the boat began to sink.

"WOOOOHOOOO!" Snotlout cheered.

"Now that was awesome!" Tuffnut commented.

"Ha! Let's do it again!" Ruffnut added.

Stoick smiled as he saw Alvin's ship burn up, but soon turned his attention to Hiccup in front of him.

"Are you okay?" he asked in a fatherly tone.

"I-I think so." Stoick noticed his head wound.

*gasps* "Hiccup, y'er head." Stoick touched the spot on his forehead.

"Its fine dad,"

"No it's not fine; you probably have a concussion. Have you slept at all?"

"Uh…"

"Uh, yeah, you don't remember. But I'm glad y'er safe and sound." He hugged Hiccup and Hiccup embraced it the best he could.

Back at Berk, Stoick took Hiccup straight to the Haddock house where Gobber would be able to fix any broken bones or cover any open wounds. Luckily for them Hiccup had little for them to worry about, except maybe the concussion he might of got.

Stoick demanded to know what Alvin had done and Hiccup complied to tell him what he remembered. It pleased Stoick that Hiccup had managed to escape five or six times, and also that Toothless arrived when he did or else Hiccup would have been a goner.

"Okay, all cleaned up; again." Gobber said while patching up Hiccup's head wound and various other scratches he got from his visit to Outcast Island. Hiccup smiled and thanked him.

"I'm so sorry we couldn't come any sooner. The moment I got that dreadful news that Alvin escaped and you were missing—I prepared ships immediately and was ready to fly ahead on Thornado, but—" Stoick tried to explain.

"Then that storm hit; talk about terrible timing." Gobber finished.

"We were stranded, and our dragons couldn't fly through the rough winds."

"Don't blame yourself, dad. You came just in time, thank you." Hiccup hugged his father. Stoick returned it with a more forceful hug and Hiccup's breath was caught in his throat. Upon letting go, he could breathe again and smiled up at Stoick before going outside to join up with his friends.

Hookfang and Stormfly were roaring back and forth at each other. Snotlout didn't really do anything while Astrid pulled Stormfly over and away from the hot headed idiots.

"Snotlout, control your dragon!" she complained and Snotlout shrugged his shoulders before approaching his Monstrous Nightmare. He was going to knock its horns to the ground, that always worked, but Hookfang had something better in mind. He knocked his rider over and then sat on him like a chicken egg.

"huhkfun-gt-off-fme!" Snotlout mumble from under the fiery beast; Hookfang just sat there with a goofy grin on his face.

"Or Hookfang can control his rider, whatever works is fine with me." Astrid commented with a smile and a giggle.

Hiccup came up from behind and looked at Snotlout's predicament.

"Uh, why is Hookfang on top of Snotlout?" he asked, making Astrid turn around.

"Who cares? All that matters is you're back, safe and sound." She hugged him tightly. Then she punched him in the arm causing Hiccup to grunt.

"That's for scarring me…"

"Sorry—"Hiccup's words stopped as Astrid's lips touched his. The two shared a deep kiss, not wanting to let go.

"Uh, hllo? Asrd? Yu till ot tere?" Snotlout mumbled again from under his dragon.

Astrid pulled away and smiled; Hiccup was blushing.

"…And that's for coming back." Hiccup smiled warmly; the two looking over at Snotlout. They thought for a moment and then walked away.

"Hookfang; stay there," Hiccup said as they walked away.

"Hllo? Ayboy?" mumbled Snotlout again, but this time it was just him and his dragon. Hookfang smiled mischievously and let out a fart. Snotlout's mutters of screams could be heard throughout Berk.

Hiccup and Astrid walked over to the edge looking up at the sunset before them. They held each others hands and Astrid leaned her head down on Hiccup's shoulder. Hiccup furrowed his eyes as a little dot appeared ahead. Astrid saw it too and squinted her eyes to see what it was.

The golden Monstrous Nightmare that Hiccup freed from the outcasts earlier came up to them and landed. He purred at Hiccup and nudged his arm to pet him. Hiccup did so,

"Who's that?" Astrid asked.

"Oh, a friend I made." Hiccup said with a smile and Astrid returned it.
