== Summary ==
Bjorn and Sammie set up some protections at the apartment to keep its inhabitants safe from witches. Then, Bjorn, Sammie, Henry, and Oliver head over to Sammie's old apartment to take her dad's truck to get them to Big Gator Swamp. When they arrive, they see a large group of people gathered there - about 10 operatives from each agency.
Bjorn addresses the crowd. He asks each group if they've been informed about what's going on. The leader of the H.U.N.T.E.R. group says he doesn't believe what he's heard and Bjorn manifests and flexes his dragon wings to prove his point. The man in charge of H.U.N.T.E.R. introduces himself as Agent Thor and the leader of the Dragon Knights introduces herself as just Angelina. Bjorn informs the group of everything they know about the hydra and talks strategy - they'll use the explosives H.U.N.T.E.R. brought to get the heads off the hydra while the Dragon Knights use their magical abilities to cauterize the stumps. Angelina says that her crew will mainly have control of the sky, while Agent Thor assures them they've brought their own air power as a helicopter flies overhead. 
Angelina reminds them they'll need to keep an eye out for witches as they go because they won't be happy they're trying to take down the hydra. Bjorn fills in the H.U.N.T.E.R. agents on witches and their capabilities. Sammie is shifting nervously in the background as the conversation turns back again to the witches that want to eat her. Henry puts a hand on her shoulder. 
Finally, they are ready to face the hydra. 
Sammie and Oliver load into a helicopter while Bjorn and Henry take to the sky with the rest of the Dragon Knights. Bjorn takes the lead and evaluates the situation. The hydra clearly notices them approaching and Bjorn calls this out over the radio. Bjorn swoops in for the first attack, hitting it with the rocket launcher. Henry swoops in and hits the same head, quickly diving out of the way of the hydra's tail as it tries to hit him. 
Sammie tries to take a shot with her rocket launcher at the same head but the rocket flies into the hydra's feet. It spits acid at the rotors of the helicopter and it begins to fall toward the ocean. The hydra snags a Dragon Knight out of the sky and starts to shake them violently. Sammie and Oliver jump from the helicopter as it hits the water. One of the blades cuts her across the shoulder. Sammie gets Oliver into a nearby boat and then dives under the waves to get the two H.U.N.T.E.R. agents who are still trapped in the helicopter's pull. She's able to free them and get them back to the surface. 
In the sky, Henry flies in close to the hydra head they've been targeting and lobs a grenade into its mouth. Bjorn gets another shot at it with the rocket launcher and the first head falls. Sammie waves down a Dragon Knight to get her into the air so that she can fireball the stump of the neck. Angelina scoops her up and brings her in close for an attack. Sammie is successfully able to hit it with a blast of fire, however, the center head of the hydra grabs Angelina's wing with its mouth and pulls. Angelina cries out in pain and nearly drops Sammie. The other remaining head of the hydra that had grabbed a separate Dragon Knight earlier swallows the man whole. 
Bjorn dive bombs into the hydra's jaw that is holding Angelina. The force causes the hydra to drop Angelina, but she now has a hole in her wing. She drops as gently as she can to the ground - Sammie and Angelina are now directly at the monster's feet. The other head grabs Bjorn by the wings and rips a hole in one. Henry shoots another rocket at the hydra, this time hitting it in one of its eyes. Henry swoops in to grab Angelina and take her to safety while another Dragon Knight follows him to grab Sammie.
The Dragon Knight flies Sammie up toward the center head and she releases another blast of fire. Another Dragon Knight swoops in to hit it in the same spot. They're hit with a spray of acid but put distance between them and the hydra. Bjorn, on a nearby boat, takes a moment to heal his wing. The golden glow draws the attention of one of the heads and it sprays in his direction with its acid attack. The boat he's on is destroyed and Bjorn jumps into the air again. The hydra grabs onto Sammie's arm. Its tail swoops up to swat the Dragon Knight holding her down. He hits the ground of the island and stops moving. Sammie forces a grenade through the gaps of its teeth while being held. The grenade rolls down its throat and explodes. It tosses Sammie and she falls into the water. 
Henry, having reloaded his rocket launcher, swoops in for a hit. As his rocket explodes, the head falls off. He quickly shoots a fireball and cauterizes the stump. There is only one head left, but suddenly Angelina's voice rings out around them warning them of approaching witches.
