With you ~ ?????? ????????? ? ???! ??

Talulahh's POV:

We looked around at the scorched village. "I don't like it." Ruff muttered.

"Weird. I don't see any arrows or spears." Hiccup said.

"No boulders from catapults." Fishlegs added.

"This really doesn't seem like a Dragon Hunter attack." Hiccup concluded.

"Well, whoever did this meant business." Astrid said. I ran my fingers across one of the rocks. It left ash on my hands, which I dusted off.

"And where did everybody go?" Fishlegs looked around.

"They must have evacuated." Astrid proposed.

"What could possibly scare the Outcasts off their own island?" Fishlegs made a point.

"The Outcasts?" Dahlia asked Hiccup quietly.

"They're one of Berk's very fierce allies." He explained. She nodded in understanding.

"Mutton famine?" Tuff said, giving a very strange reason why they would have left.

"Bed bugs? Once those things show up, you can never get rid of 'em." Ruff said.

"I think this has something to do with it." Hiccup looked at the large, lightning shaped crack that was running down one of the boulders.

"These scorch marks..." Hickey trailed off. "Do these look familiar to anyone?"

My heart dropped when I realized. "Hiccup, do you think it could be..." Fishlegs said. I could tell we were all thinking the same thing. Except for Dahlia. She was looking around like a lost sheep.

We flew towards an island. "There. That's the one." Hiccup said. We all landed and slipped off our saddles. Including Dahlia, who now had a very comfortable looking saddle.

We all peered down the crack that we had trapped the dragon in originally. "Yep. The Skrill is gone." Snotlout confirmed.

"That's a good title for a song." Tuff said. "I'm gonna work on that when we get home."

"How did this happen?" Fishl asked.

"Shoddy workmanship, I'd say." Tuff replied.

"Aren't we the ones who sealed him in that big whole?" Ruffnut recalled. Tuff cleared his throat and pointed at Barf and Belch.

"It doesn't matter how it got out." Hiccup stood up. "We've got to get it back before it hurts anybody else, or before Dagur gets a hold of it."

"The question is, where is it heading?" Astrid asked from beside me.

"Since the Skrill gravitates towards storms to channel its lightning, I would say it's following that storm headed due South from Outcast Island." Fishlegs concluded.

"Hey, isn't Berk... Oh, no." Snotlout realised.

We rushed towards Berk, where the Skrill was attacking. "Hey, look at that. The A-team,already on the case." Astrid said approvingly.

"Yeah, okay, it might be a little early in their dragon riding careers to..." Hiccup trailed off. Then, almost all of the auxiliary riders went down, having been struck by lightning.

"Cover the downed riders!" Hiccup instructed. "Dahlia, go help them get to safety." I could tell Hiccup only told her to do that so she would get away from the highly dangerous dragon.

"Toothless? No. What are you doing?" Hiccup asked as his dragon hovered in place in front of the Skrill. I flew towards them, trying to see whag was wrong. "Toothless, no!" Hiccup yelled as him and the Skrill both shot at each other. Their blasts collided in middle air, sending a shock wave which caused Hiccup and I to fall off our dragons.
