Vera and Estrella were currently flying over the ocean, Vera was wearing her dragon scale armor with her clawed gloves tied around her belt and she was riding on Estrella's back with the baby goregutter and the five other baby dragons were flying with the female night fury and their human surrogate mother. The baby goregutter and the five other baby dragons were flying in a V formation beside Vera and Estrella with the baby goregutter leading the front with the other baby dragons flying behind him, which the five other baby dragons were a baby Hideous Zippleback, a baby Hackatoo, a baby Terrible Terror, a baby Woolly Howl, and a baby Sand wraith. The six baby dragons were all wearing sashes with small bags sewn on them.

Vera: ( to the six baby dragons, with a smile: ) Okay, bebés, this is your first mission, so we're doing something easy... We're stealing some loot from a trader that foolishly leaves his treasures and wares in a ship graveyard.

The six baby dragons roared excitedly in response, making Estrella chuckle and Vera smile.

Vera: That's my little gang of tiny thieves! Now, only take as much treasure that can fit in the bags on your sashes and don't try to take something that you can't carry. Work smarter, not harder.

When Vera, Estrella, and the baby dragons got to the ship graveyard, the baby terrible terror whined slightly when she looked down at the water, which Vera heard and quickly gave the baby terror a reassuring smile.

Vera: ( to the baby terrible terror, reassuringly: ) Don't worry, Pebble. The scary eels won't hurt you or your siblings as long as Mama and your hermana Estrella are here to protect all of you.

The baby terrible terror now revealed to be named " Pebbles " purred slightly in response before she smiled at Vera, seemingly feeling less scared knowing that Vera and Estrella were there to protect her and the other baby dragons.

The dragon thief and her seven dragons then landed on one of the ships that was next to the ship called the " Reaper ". The baby dragons then splited up to searched the other ships for treasure to take, and Vera watched with a proud smile.

Vera: ( to Estrella: ) We only had them for a week and they are already growing up so fast on us, girl. Come on, let's see what we can find on this ship.

Vera and Estrella then went below the deck of the ship they were on, and Vera quickly grabbed anything that she saw seemed valuable and that could fit into Estrella's saddlebags. After a while Vera and Estrella began hearing voices coming from above the deck, causing them to become somewhat curious about who besides them would go to a ship graveyard.

???: Here's the plan. We search the ship, gather Johann's treasure and take it back to Berk.

Vera then silently signal Estrella to stay below deck as she slowly began going above deck to check out the possible danger.

( With the Dragon riders, above deck )

Hiccup: ( to the gang: ) But keep your eyes open for Dagur. He could show up anytime-

Suddenly a loud hissing sound filled the air, causing the dragon riders to be on their guard.

Astrid: ( as she looks around: ) What is that?

Tuffnut: Has Dagur's voice changed.

???: ( a female voice with a slight accent: ) It's not a person, idiotas.

As the riders looked around for who just spoke, several giant eels emerged out of the water and surrounded the ship.

Hiccup: Eels! Everybody get to your dragons before they get spooked and take off!-

???: ( off-screen: ) Too late for that, Guapo.

The riders then saw that the mysterious voice was right as the dragons quickly got spooked as soon as they saw the giant eels.

Fishlegs: Ohhh... Hold me, Meatlug!

All the riders were unable to handle the large eels, and all of them except for Toothless flew off, leaving the riders behind. Then, before the riders knew it, a whistle was heard and a large black blurr came out from below the deck of the ship and they see two plasma blasts were fired at the water, scaring off the giant eels. They then watched as a figure dressed in some kind of armor made from multi colored dragon scale from different kinds of dragons walked out from behind the mast, and the riders watched in shock as a three legged night fury with stunning sapphire blue eyes and a saddle with a built-in prosthetic leg gracefully landed beside the figure. Hiccup and Toothless couldn't believe their eyes as they looked the night fury with the armoured figure as the riders looked at the duo with shock until...

Tuffnut: Ah! Demon!

Tuffnut then threw his helmet at the figure, hitting them in the head, and causing them to groan in slight pain from the blow and causing the night fury to growl protectively at the Thorston twin. The figure then removed their helmet to reveal that... It was a girl with black hair and dark green eyes, causing the dragon riders to look at her in shock.

Vera: ( to the riders, with a glare: ) You hit me in the head with a helmet?!

Tuffnut: ( is shock: ) You're a woman?

Hiccup: ( silently: ) Whoa...

Vera: ( scoffs ) Amateurs. ( To Estrella: ) Come on, girl.

Vera then calmly got on Estrella, and the riders watched as the duo flew off the ship and they watched as the two calmly landed on the deck of the Reaper.

Hiccup: Ah, Miss-

Vera just ignored Hiccup as she and Estrella calmly went below the deck of the Reaper.

Snotlout: Pardon me. Did anyone else see the incredibly attractive demon girl and the three legged night fury? And does anyone else think that Johann could have warned us about... I don't know... THE GIANT SCREAMING EELS?!

Hiccup: Snotlout, would you relax? The dragons will be back. In the meantime, we stick with the plan. We find Johann's treasure, quietly.

Snotlout angrily stomped away as the gang split up to find Johann's treasure while Hiccup sighed as he and Toothless looked at the Reaper with worried looks, which Astrid noticed.

Astrid: ( to Hiccup, knowingly: ) You're planning on going after her, aren't you?

Hiccup: Yes.

Astrid: You do realize that she and her dragon went on the Reaper. The ship Johann warned us about.

Hiccup: Exactly. A ship covered with booby traps from step to stern. That girl and her night fury could get themselves hurt, plus I'm thinking what is on there people don't want to be found?

Astrid then watched with a blank expression as Hiccup got on Toothless and flew to the Reaper.

Astrid: ( sighs ) I should've seen that coming.

Astrid then went to join the others in the search for Johann's treasure.
