Night had fallen upon the ship as dragon riders discuss Heathers betrayal and joining of the dragon hunters.
"Trusting her was a big mistake." Astrid growls as she rest her head upon the cell bars.
"Yeah I mean who puts trust before there brother before trust before there friends." Ruffnut huffs out as her brother replies.
"That's right sister." Astrid huffs and turns towards the others.
"We have to figure out who are these dragon hunters and what do they want from us." She status just before Heather answers her.
"Well your about to find out." She smirks as one of the dragon hunters open the cell doors, the other one walks towards Liang's and opens his.
"Ryker wants to have a little chat with you." She says mincingly as she forces her out of the cell. Meanwhile Liang quickly wakes up and slides his mask back onto his face as he is yanked up by his hair causing him to wince in pain.
Astrid and he are lead to the door that he had saw Heather enter hours earlier, as they are once again forced inside Ryker sits at his desk while Dagur stands to Ryker's left. Heather forces both them onto their knees, Astrid grunts and glares back at Heather while Liang stays still and does not move. Dagur steps forward and walks towards the two.
    "Well hello Astrid and weird water controlling girl." He smirks as he leans down towards them, he smirks and reaches out for Liang's hair taking a small chunk of it and lets it rush through his fingers.
     "So long and smooth quiet opposite of any vikings." He states just before he yanks off the mask to reveal there face.
"Where did you fine this girl she has quite a smooth completion." Dagur smirks as he rubs his hand against his cheek, he earns a glare from the beauty.
"Get your filthy blood covered hands off of me." They growl causing Dagur to laugh insanely.
"Dagur you can flirt with her all you want later but now we have to ask some questions." Heather crosses her arms and glares towards her brother causing him to give a long sarcastic sigh as he walks away from them.
      "Now listen up you two Ryker wants us to ask you some questions so, Where is the Dragon eye?" Heather looks down at the two as they both glanced at each other.
      "Dragon eye? Never heard of it." Liang states sarcastically.
       "I'm not asking you I'm asking her." She points towards Astrid.
         "As if I would ever tell you." Astrid growls and glares daggers towards Heather. Liang sighs and attempts to stand up but is quickly shoved back down by Dagur.
     "I guess it's time for me to start asking some questions for you, What are you?" He questions with a grin, Liang rolls his eyes and huffs.
    "I'm human, same as you dummy." He states with a teasing tone smirking after words. Dagur suddenly loses it and punches the male extremely hard. He falls onto his side and spits up some blood, a bruise begins to form on his face.
     "Next time I won't be as gentle so answer the question!" Dagur demands as the boy sits up and sighs.
"I am the avatar, the avatar is a human being who can control or bend all the for main elements including sub elements like metal and lava for earth and fire and bloodbending for water." He states in an annoyed tone. Ryker raises an eye wanting to hear more.
     "How exactly did you get these powers?" Dagur questions.
      "Many centuries ago a man named Wan fused with a very powerful spirit and learned how to use the for elements. He learned to coexist with spirits that once ruled over the land." He begins to explain reluctantly.
     "Great so now we have some information on him." Heather rolls her eyes and then looks towards Astrid.
"So are you going to tell us anything?" She glares towards her. Astrid doesn't respond until an idea pops into her and she smirks.
An hour later Astrid is returned to the cell and is forced inside, the others began to question her what had happened. She explained that she tricked them into thinking that they had more dragon riders at the edge.
"We need to get out before they find out I was bluffing, any ideas?" She ask as they all attempt to think of something when Fishlegs notice that only Astrid returned.
"Wait where's Liang?" He questions as Astrid takes in a deep breath and sighs.
"They believe it's better to keep him in there, a few hours ago he tried to escape so..." she looks off to the side as Fishlegs gets ahold of the situation Liang is in.
"Great so we have to now free our dragons, free the other dragons and free Liang but I'm pretty sure he could escape on his own." He states as she nods.
"But first let's come up with a plan to get ourselves freed first." They nod and go back to plan an escape.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile in Riker's office Liang sits in a corner chained up, his arms tied securely to his back. He stares off into the distance until he here's someone cough for his attention, he slowly looks towards them and raises an eyebrow.
"What do you want?" He glares towards the girl with the strange axe.
"How do you know the dragon riders?" She questions him for the fourth time in a row. He groans and rolls his eyes.
"Fine! I tell you...I befriended some of them after I got here through a portal on there island and before you ask anything else, no I will not show you where it is and if you do find it you can't get in without my guidance." He states with annoyance in his voice. Heather rolls her eyes and looks towards Dagur who's making google eyes towards him.
'When he finds out that I'm a dude he's going to be so heartbroken, curse me and my girly voice, I already hit puberty what gives?' Liang huffs and looks around so more until Riker stands up and walks over to his two minions and begins to explain to them a plan that he has set up. Liang listens in carefully hearing what they are going to do, knowing that he would attempt to break free again Dagur storms over and knocks him out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Dragon Riders are forced to walk down the halls seeing how they are treating there dragons, each one objects to the Riker he threatens them much worse things to come. He demands more straight forward answers, each one of them glares before Ruffnut begins to beg a guard but quickly gets up and walks back to the others.
"Fine then, if you don't want to save your dragons then I shall continue what I'm doing to them. Now get them out of my sight!" Riker orders as they are all forced back to there cell. The Dragon rides begin to continue figuring out a plan until Astrid states she has memorized the guards patterns but they still need to find away to get out. Ruffnut reveals that she had stolen a key from the guard she was begging. The others stare at her in shock.
"See Ruffnut idea farm, back in business." She smirks as she hands over the key to Astrid and they begin to put there plan in motion.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Liang begins to wake up to the sound of an alarm going off, his eyes slowly begin to open then he blinks a few times. He notices that he's alone in the office and smirks until a headache begins to cloud his vision.
"How hard did that jerk hit me?" He grumbles to himself as he stands up he then meatlbends the chains off and runs out to find the others. By how long it took him to get the chains off the alarm had long since been silenced, he sneaks his way up to the deck hiding in the doorway. Unknownest to him a guard had spotted him and quickly captures him and brings him out with the others.
"Oh so you escaped also...how!?" Dagur yells in complete confusion. Liang smirks and then begins to laugh.
"Were you all not listening? I said I could been the four elements but also the sub elements like......metal chains." He looks at them as if they were stupid and then goes back to laughing. A few minutes later the others are put to work while Liang is dragged back to his cell with guards to watch him, he huffs and pulls his knees up to his chest trying to come up with a plan to help his friends escape knowing full well he could get out of here himself. While he is doing this he hears a guess shout that Dragon riders were headed there way, his eyes widen then he stands up quickly.
'I'm guessing Hiccup and Snoutbrat have returned, great timing guys' he thinks to himself. Bending the water out from in between the wood of the ship he knocks the guards out then freezes them, summoning more water he cuts the door open and rushes up to the deck. He sees the fight had begun and begins to attack, he jumps a guard and steals steals his weapon. Using it he attacks the other guards using his water bending to freeze some to there place, he sees the others run off to save there dragons. As the fight begins to come to an end Riker sneaks up behind Liang after failing to shot down Hiccup and Toothless, he knocks the boy out causing him to fall over the side of the ship. In his dazed state before he fell he hears Hiccup call out his name.
Liang slips into his unconscious mind as he begins to sink into the dark sea, Hiccup attempts to fly down but his stopped by a barge of arrows.
"Dang it! We have to save him." He growls as Astrid flys up next to him.
"I'm sorry Hiccup but it's to dangerous to fly down there." She states looking back down to where Liang fell with a sad look in her eyes. Just before they flew off the sea erupts into a funnel of water that pushes the Dragon hunter ships away from it and at the center of the funnel there was Liang.
While Liang was sinking a force called to him to open his eyes, he listens and does as told. He feels his body rise up from the sea as he feels the past Avatars come together to save him. The Dragon riders stare in shock seeing the damage he was doing to the ships, he broken some of the sterns, caused some to nearly sink as he caused massive waves to go over them. Riker stares in complete awe seeing the power the kid possess, he laughs silently wanting to see Viggo react to this sight of a human controlling the sea. Liang feels the past avatars begin to leave him knowing there work had been done, for there last trick they made him get closer to the Dragon riders so one of them could catch him, as the glow fades from his eyes he falls back towards the sea but luckily Hiccup was able to catch him, he helps him get on top of Toothless then they all quickly fly off before anything else happens. Liang rest his head on Hiccups back and quickly falls asleep. Astrid flys up next to them.
"Hiccup we're going to have to ask Liang more about what just happened when we get back." She states looking back towards Liang with a hint of fear in her eyes.
"He has to recover first before we do and trust me I have as many questions as you do." He looks back to look at the sleeping male.
'Liang what exactly are you?' He thinks to himself with a worried expression as they make there way home.
