Ok, from now on. I'm going to make chapters longer to about 1000 words or just following the episode in general and see how much words I have done.
Enjoy this chapter!!!

Hiccup

Once again, the hunter's were at it with capturing more dragons. Our resistance was too strong and that wouldn't stop us from freeing every last dragon in the archipelago from Viggo's control.

Nearly complete in our mission, I was about to shot down when a violet plasma blast shoots down a barrage of arrows. "Nice shot Y/N!" I yell happily, she smiles as she leads the last few dragons away. I followed behind to make sure we were completely out of range.

Back at the Edge; Y/N, Fishlegs, and I were organizing a formation with the Night Terror's. When they make a formation of a rumbleborn, but an actual rumblehorn makes an appearance. "Can't a chief get respect around here?!" He shouts, we look at each other with a weird expression on our faces when my dad hovers in front of us.

"What is it Dad?" I ask. "Not a single trade ship has come to Berk for weeks, and when I sent scouting ships to investigate the straits neither one returned also." He explained. "The waters might've been infested tidal class dragons-" My dad cuts him off.

"The Auxiliary riders investigated and they reported the ocean was empty and quiet." He finishes. "We will tackle the issue dad." He gives one final nod and flies off as we head to get the rest of the riders.

The next day, we arrived at the straits. "I don't see anything." Snoutlout complains. A roar from a adolescent Scauldron cuts him off as he was swimming up and down in the water. "Looks like it's just a Scauldron, we'll grab ropes and other tools then it's just a transition from now on." Everyone nods, but then a horrible smell overtake's the air.

"Ugh!! What is that smell!? Snoutlout is that you?!" Ruffnut complains, Snoutlout snaps back and says that it wasn't him and it was coming from the water. Then, out of nowhere a giant whirlpool emerges and tries to suck us in; including the Scauldron. "AHHH!!!" Fishlegs screams in panic, but we make it through and focus our dragon fire at the mouth of the whirlpool's mouth and it stops.

"What was it? A sea monster?" Y/N asks, her dragon hovering next to us. "Not a sea monster. A powerful Tidal class dragon, the Submaripper. I've only read about them in the Book of Dragons. Much scarier in person." I explained, that memory about it still loomed somewhere in my head.

"But why would a Submaripper take told in a narrow area? They prefer deeper, open water. They're typical very reclusive." Fishlegs adds on. "-I don't know. What I do know is we have an extremely territorial and dangerous dragon on our hands."

At Berk, we were flying over the village, looking over them as they had nothing to get from the carts. "Dad. What happened here?" I asked confused. "With the trade routes closed, we've had no way to get provisions." He says, we continue to fly over the village as he speaks once more.

"Without any gold, we have no means to purchase them either." We passes by Gothi's hut as she helped a man, but there was no herbs left to heal. "Son, if the trade routes aren't opened soon, the reserves will run out. And when it does, we won't be able to feed our people." He told me, I quickly think of a plan.

"Heather, Astrid, Ruff, Tuff, help the Auxiliary gather more provisions. Fishlegs, you help feed the village." They nod as they fly off to get more food and Fishlegs heading down toward the village. "Y/N and Snoutlout, come with me. We're going back to the straits. We have a Submaripper to remove." As we suddenly head off to the strait at full speed.

When we were closing in on the strait, I hold back and toss Y/N and Snoutlout some goggles. "Here, take these. We're gonna need them." Y/N looked taken aback at the object she was holding. "Death Song amber goggles?" She looks over to me for a explanation. "They should help us see underwater. Once we dive down, we'll drive the Submaripper out to open water, away from the trade routes." Ask I fly ahead, and dive underwater.

We all stayed together as we descended further down, I squint a bit because I couldn't see and I see the back of the giant dragon. I look back and give the signal to open fire to get its attention. One of its eyes opened and it growled a bit as we grew closer and closer. It growled more and more furiously as it suddenly turned around and howled a massive amount of water at us.

Y/N and Crystal jumped back when the dragon tried dragging them both down with its jaws. We swam back toward the Submaripper when I noticed a giant stack of rock, I pointed at it and Toothless fired a plasma blast at it as we swam back to the surface. I looked back and noticed a chain around its leg as I caught up with Y/N and Snoutlout.

"Well, that went fantastic. And I'm really glad you gave us these goggles. It really helped me see how clearly we nearly came to getting killed!" Snoutlout yelled. Y/N and I took off our goggles and breathed heavily. I looked back to the water. "What is it, Hiccup?" Y/N asked.

"That dragon didn't wander into the straits. It was chained here." I tell her. "Chained?" She replies. "With dragon-proof chains. And there's only one person capable of that."

"Viggo? But- -" Fishlegs tried to understand. "I'm not sure how he did it. But this is a message. He's telling me to back off. Or Berk will face the consequences."
