At the other location, Abyss, Groundspliter, Frost and Bansha were near the lake and cavern entrance and were currently finding out the hard way that sea serpents aren't what they used to be.

  "Since when can these things go on land" Bansha asked.

  "Who knows? Just keep fighting" Abyss replied.

  Dagron, Hunterbolt, Acidstorm, Smokescreen and Firefly arrived with Icebreaker to see the ladies surrounded by a few sea serpents.

  "Leave it to me, your majesty" said Icebreaker.

  He then headed in to deal with them himself.

  "Should we go in and help him" Hunterbolt asked.

  "If he says he's got it, he's got it" Dagron replied.

  A few sea serpents were hissing and slithering towards the ladies as they readied themselves when suddenly...

  BLAST! BLAST! BLAST!

  Three out of five Sea Serpents were blasted in the face were blasted in the face with a blue fireball and went down, only to quickly get back up and slither away.

  The ladies all looked up and saw Icebreaker glaring at the two remaining Sea Serpents, who were now hissing at him. He flew up and landed down a few feet away from them. They hissed one more time before attacking, only for Icebreaker to swing around and smack them away with his tail. He then turned towards Abyss and bowed down.

  "Greetings, your majesty" he said.

  "Thanks for saving us. You are" she asked him.

  "Icebreaker. I've been here in the Antarctic for quite some time now" he replied.

  "What for" Abyss asked him.

  "Exploring and seeing the sights, if you will" he replied.

  During their talk, one of the sea serpents Icebreaker smacked away with his tail got up and slithered away. The other one got up, let out a low hiss began to quietly slither towards him. Abyss saw it before it was about to strike and her eyes widened.

  "Look out" she said.

  Icebreaker quickly turned around just as the sea serpent lunged towards him with its mouth wide open.

  STAB!

  Icebreaker quickly managed to impale it through its head with the spike on his tail at the last possible second, killing it. He pulled out his tail and the sea serpent's corpse fell onto the ground, motionless. That was when Dagron, Hunterbolt, Acidstorm, Smokescreen and Firefly landed.

  "I see you ladies met our new friend here" said Dagron.

  "Yeah, showed up in the nick of time too" said Abyss.

  "Did you boys find anything where you went" Frost asked.

  "No, only Sea Serpents before Icebreaker showed up and helped us out" Hunterbolt replied.

  "The cavern you are looking for is across the lake. Let's proceed with caution" said Icebreaker.

  "OK, then. Lead the way" said Dagron.

  Icebreaker nodded and they set off. After flying for a bit, they saw a lake in the distance, along with the entrance to a giant ice cave.

  "There it is" said Acidstorm.

  That was when they all heard a sound that sounded similar to a whale call, but deeper and more monstrous. Everyone quickly landed behind a big mound of snow and peered over at the lake, only to see a giant, dark green scaly tail with fins come out of the water and slam back in.

  "A giant sea serpent. Why did it have to be a giant one" Bansha asked.

  "If it's in water, leave it to me" said Abyss.

  "No, it'll see you. Unless..." Dagron stopped talking

  Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

  "Unless what" Firefly asked.

  "Unless we all distract it and take it on together" Dagron replied.

  Abyss nodded silently as Dagron looked back at the others, who all nodded silently as well.

  "Let's do this" said Smokescreen.

  "Time to cook us a Sea Serpent" said Firefly.

  "I'll fully charge up and hit it with everything I got" said Abyss.

  Dagron nodded silently with a smile on his face as Abyss quickly took flight and headed up into the sky. Dagron and the others stepped out into view in front of the lake, Dagron being front and center. He took out his staff and hit the ground with the end of it a few times, creating a loud metallic sound. The giant sea serpent heard that and, a few seconds later, rose up out of the water. It saw them all and let out a loud hiss, showing off its big fangs and sharp jagged teeth.

  "Come and get us, you overgrown eel" said Smokescreen.

  It swam closer towards them, raised its massive tail high up and tried to slam it down on them, but they all scattered. It looked around and quickly locked onto Frost. She turned around only to see it swinging its tail towards her. It connected and launched her.

  "Frost" Bansha exclaimed.

  Hunterbolt saw that and he saw red. He growled as he began charged up a blast. Frost was slowly getting up as she heard something big approaching. She looked up, only to see the massive sea serpent approach her with its maw opened wide. Frost's eyes widened and she quickly closed them, bracing herself and expecting the worst.

  BANG!

  Suddenly, Hunterbolt shot the massive sea serpent in the face with an explosive fireball, sending it rolling away. He quickly got right next to Frost as she was getting up.

  "You OK" he asked her.

  "My hero" she replied.

  Hunterbolt blushed a little and Frost could tell.

  "D-don't mention it" he said.

  She smiled as she got up.

  "It's alright, Hunter. It's perfectly alright with me" she said.

  Hunter, noticing her smile and expression, realized something about the dragon he had a crush on all this time – the feeling was mutual. He smiled as they both looked back at the giant sea serpent that was slowly getting back up. It looked at them and hissed before Dagron shot a fireball at its back. It loudly screeched in pain as Dagron's fire melted some of its scales and fins. It turned around, looked up at him and loudly hissed.

  "Come on! Come at me" he said.

  He then turned around flew out towards the middle of the lake, the massive sea serpent quickly following him. Dagron quickly made it to the middle of the lake and flew further up so the sea serpent couldn't reach him. He looked back down at it as it resurfaced and loudly hissed at him. Just then, a bright light began to glow from behind him. He turned around and saw Abyss flying down to him, her body pulsing with blue electrical arcs. Dagron smiled and flew away to give Abyss room. She charged up and fired a big blast of lightning at the sea serpent. It hit and caused a bright flash of light. When the bright light stopped, everyone looked and saw the massive sea serpent dead and floating in the water, belly up. They all roared in triumph and quickly met up at the mouth of the large cave.

  "You did it, girl" said Bansha.

  "No, we did it" said Abyss.

  "Haha! Take that, you big, ugly sea snake" said Firefly.

  "Now, then. Shall we proceed" Icebreaker asked.

  "Yeah, we have a titan to find" Dagron replied.

  They all nodded and headed into the icy cave. They got inside and found that it split off into 3 tunnels.

  "Looks like we have to split up. Icebreaker, you're coming with me and Abyss down the middle" said Dagron.

  "Me, Hunter, Smokescreen and Firefly will go down the left" said Acidstorm.

  "And you girls go down the right" said Abyss.

  They all nodded and headed down the tunnels to find their titan. The ladies were walking down their tunnel and talking about what just happened.

  "That was a close call back there, Frost" said Groundspliter.

  "Yeah, I'm so thankful that Hunter saved me" said Frost.

  "So...when were you gonna tell us you have a crush on him" said Bansha.

  Frost started blushing.

  "W-well, I...he's" she was cut off.

  "Relax, Frost. It's alright, you and Hunter do kind of make a cute couple" said Bansha.

  "Shut up" she said.

  "It's adorable" said Groundspliter.

  "Speaking of, G, why did I see you blushing when we met Icebreaker earlier" Frost asked her.

  "W-what" Groundspliter asked.

  "Wait, Groundspliter, you like the new guy" Bansha asked her.

  "N-no, I don't" she replied.

  "Then why are you blushing right now" Frost asked her.

  "I'm not blushing! I never blush! It's just...cold in here" said Groundspliter.

  "The cold doesn't make only your face red" said Bansha.

  "S-shut up! You're one to talk, liking Smokescreen of all dragons" said Groundspliter.

  "Wait, what" Frost exclaimed.

  "N-no, I don't. Don't be silly" said Bansha.

  "Oh, really? Then why are you blushing" Groundspliter asked her.

  "S-shut up" she replied.

  Frost got in between.

  "Hey! Come on, girls, no reason to argue over things like having a crush on someone" she said.

  Both Bansha and Groundspliter got quiet.

  "Let's just say it, I like Hunter because even though he acts tough and ruthless, he's actually kind" said Frost.

  Bansha sighed.

  "OK, fine. I admit it, I like Smokescreen. His jokes sometimes get a giggle out of me and while he isn't the toughest or bravest, he'll always do the right thing" said Bansha.

  "Awe, that's so sweet" said Frost.

  They then looked at Groundspliter.

  "I know we just met him, but...when Icebreaker saved us from those Sea Serpents like that and killed that one with his tail. Just...so hot" she said.

  Frost and Bansha smiled and rolled their eyes. Of course only Groundspliter could find a big tough dragon like that hot.

  "Come on, you two. Let's get going. We still got a titan to find" said Frost.

  After that, they continued walking down the tunnel.

  Meanwhile...

  Dagron and Abyss were walking down their tunnel with Icebreaker.

  "This place looks like it hasn't been disturbed for thousands of years" said Abyss.

  "May the gods forgive us for trespassing" said Icebreaker.

  Dagron smiled and shook his head. They all soon entered a giant opening in the icy cavern.

  "Whoa, this place is huge" said Abyss.

  "Yeah, it's-" Dagron stopped talking.

  Abyss and Icebreaker looked over and saw him looking forward and up.

  "Honey? What's wrong" she asked him.

  Her and Icebreaker then looked up to see what Dagron was staring at and that was when they saw him – Quetzalcoatl, frozen in the ice.
