Day 30:poison - Hiccup

Today is a very hard day the Riders go and check on islands and make sure that Viggo isn't causing mischief. Astrid went east, Snotlout went west, Fishlegs went south, and Hiccup and the Twins went North. Hiccup, Ruff and Tuff have been flying for a while and all have been well but the twins were getting bored so they decided to have a little fun by going sliding on the snowy island they came across. (Like they didn't learn last time) But what they didn't know they caught the attention of a herd of young Speed Stingers and they followed them down the hill where Hiccup was waiting for them. "What were you thinking? Did you not remember what happened last time?" "Uh no we did not?" Tuffnut replied shaking his head no. Hiccup was rubbing his head when Toothless starts growling. "What's up bud?" Hiccup looks and sees the herd and was about to say something but it was to late a young speed stinger got to Barf and Belch before he could say something. "Barf!" "Come on we got to get to cover." They try to run for a cave but then Hiccup gets hit by one and Toothless helps him, and when they get there Barf starts letting out gas. "Great now what? We can't breathe in here and Hiccup can't walk." "One of you will have to take Toothless and go get the others." Hiccup said sitting on the floor. "Wait, wait, wait, are you trusting us with Toothless?" "It's the only way to get out of here faster the effects last for hours and hopefully you can find someone faster than that." "Ok." Ruff went to go find one of the riders while Tuff tried to figure out how to get Barf's gas to not effect them. After a while he decided to just put his head near the exit so it was not as effective. They sat in silence for a while until they heard a Nadder and a Nightfury outside they knew that Ruff had returned with Astrid and that they would be getting back to the edge.
