The next morning the group departed from New Berk, Zephyr and Nuffink were left with Valka and Gobber who volunteered to watch them. The dragon riders went to Defenders of the Wing first, to prepare. Snotlout was talking with Throk who was also going to join them to free the people of Hutsgalor.
The Rescue Riders were dorking off in the corner while the adults talked. Axel had been given a weapon to use for the battle, which was one of Mala's older swords. Finn on the other hand promised to stay in the sky and not fight anyone without Aggro, but was given a weapon just in case.
Leaving Defenders of the Wing, the group of them flew to where they knew Gunnar's camp was. The dragon riders' set plan was that the adults would attack the ships getting the attention of the hunters while the rescue riders went to find the people of Hutsgalor.
The dragon riders landed on a cliff looking over Gunnar's camp, Hiccup was looking over the camp with a telescope.
"The camp looks just how it should." Hiccup tells them.
Handing the telescope to his wife who was next to him, who looked over the entire camp. One of the ship flags looked familiar but she didn't know how, Astrid handed the telescope back to Hiccup who put it in his saddle bag.
"So on to the plan?" Dagur asks his brother.
"Yep." Hiccup replies.
The older dragon riders mounted their dragons, Hiccup and Astrid started firing on the first line of ships while the rest of the dragon riders took out the remaining ones.
"I've missed this!" Snotlout yells, while Hookfang fires on one of the ships.
"You and I, both Snotman!" Tuffnut yells, after Barf and Belch release a ball of fire at another ship.
Hiccup laughs at his friends, while Toothless counties blasting ships.
"You missed this too, didn't you?" Hiccup asks his dragon.
"A little bit." Toothless responds.
"I really wish I could understand you like the twins can." Hiccup mutters, causing the night fury to laugh at him.
"Ha ha." Hiccup mutters.
"Um, Hiccup!" Astrid yells, catching his attention.
"Yes, M'lady?" Hiccup asks, flying over to his wife.
"Do you recognize those ship's flags at all?" Astrid asks.
Hiccup looked towards the ships his wife was talking about.
Most of the ships were the same size except for one, this ship is more elevated and consists of three masts and four sails. The sails depict a Monstrous Nightmare head with a sword through its middle.
Hiccup noticed the sail on the biggest ship, looking at the other ships' sails to see if they were familiar.
All of the joining ships had a similar design to the first one, such as a similar dragon head with arrows, shackles coming down towards it or catapulted rocks around it, or the same logo viewed from its left side, others include crossed swords and a dragon head with a large lower jaw.
"Aren't those the flags Drago used?" Snotlout cuts in.
"Yeah." Hiccup responds, "But he's dead, so someone else has to be doing it."
"We know who." Tuffnut cuts in.
"That Gunnar dude." Ruffnut finished.
"Make sense, he was also trying to tame dragons like Drago." Fishlegs responds.
