Hiccup was alone after what felt like an eternity, he was alone in viggos library. Surrounded by loads of books he'd never seen before, ones that contained the language of the dragon eye. Ones which were just facts about dragons. Hunting books. Maps, that showed places he'd never seen before. Maps outside of the archipelago. But one book out of them all stood out to him the most, a golden cover book which was left on a table. The book had the same patterns as the dragon eye. The language was also the same. Hiccup knew deep down he had to get this book somewhere else. It couldn't be in the hands of the dragon hunters, but how?

A terrible terror. Hiccup could give the book to a terrible terror, send the said terror back to dragons edge.

Hiccup grabbed the dragon eye book, and began to walk towards the door, he placed his hand on the handle twisted it. Locked.

" shit. " hiccup muttered.

Hiccups eyes drew towards the big stained glass window, holding his breath he glanced back towards the door. Sighed. Then drew his attention back towards the window, tightening his grip on the book, he made a run for the window. Closing his eyes as he felt his body burn, the sound of glass breaking filled his ears. His body ached as his legs hit the floor. Gasping to try catch his breath, hiccup made a run for it to one of the terrible terror cages. He looked around but couldn't seem to find one. It felt like an eternity before hiccup saw one.

Hiccup began to sprint to the cage faster than ever before, once he reached his destination. He paused trying to catch his breath once again, eyed the dragons cage. Hiccup pulled out a pice of the glass shard that was stuck into his leg, biting down at the sides of his mouth to hold back his scream. Once the glass was out of his leg, hiccup sighed looking at the glass pice. Covered in his own blood, hiccup could hear Viggo's men running around like crazy shouting at one another to find hiccup. Hiccup reached up to the lock with the said glass pice and shoved it in, twisting and turning it until he made the perfect shape unlocking the cage. The terrible terror was just as scared as him. Hiccup tried to calm the male terror down showing him he doesn't need to be scared. Placing his hand of the snout of the dragon, feeling the warmth of the dragon filled hiccup with joy. He pulled out the book, showed it to the dragon. The dragon grasped onto the said book, while hiccup pulled out a cloth. Let the dragon sniff it, holding the sent into its snout. Before hiccup could do anything more he felt a hand grasp at his shoulder, hearing the cries of the terrible terror, as it was impaled with a dragon root arrow. Hiccup turned his head to see no other than viggo grimborn. Hiccup tried to speak but he couldn't his throat was filled with pure fear, as he look at the dragon eye book back in viggos hands.

" tut tut tut " viggo said in a cold, mocking tone. Looking down at his property. He held the book up more so hiccup can see it.

" you were so close my dear, but not close enough. " viggo whispered Into hiccups ear. He held the book tight in his right hand while his left was on the younger male. Inflicting pain into his already cut shoulder. Viggo released his hand which held the boy down and replaced it with his foot, fully sending hiccups whole body to the floor. Hiccups body began to ache, as he looked up to see Viggo's right hand was high up in the sky, signalling for something. One of  Viggo's dragon hunters, handed over a needle to viggo, this filled the younger male with pure fear as he watched the grin grow over the older male, viggo knelt down, and injected the needle into hiccups right arm, as Hiccup began to try move away, he was held down by viggos other leg. Hiccup cried as he felt the liquid go through his arm. Burning. It wasn't long until he was unconscious.

" cage up the terror. " viggo spoke in a low tone.

Picking up hiccup and throwing him over his shoulder. Still holding the dragon eye book. Viggo began to walk back to his house. Once he reached there, he tucked the book under his arm, opening the door, walking in and relocking it. Viggo walked upstairs towards the library, replacing the book on the shelf. Before taking one look at the broken window. Sighing, while walking away.
