The next day in the ring, the gronckel hovers above it's victims as the teen recruits scramble. Astrid ducks behind a barrier to find Hiccup already there. She forces her axe at his throat.
"Stay out of my way! I'm winning this thing!" She said holding down his shield getting uncomfortably close to his face.
"Please, by all means." He says as she darts off closing fast on the Dragon. The crowd above cheers her on.
Hiccup stands and look around, seeing the crowd of onlookers. Stoick watches keenly, beaming with pride.
He looks eyes with Hiccup, giving him a nod of encouragement. Hiccup adjusted his new helmet and have him a halfhearted smile.
Unbeknownst to Hiccup, the gronckel spots him and makes a bee-line his way.
As for Astrid, she catches his breath behind a barrier. She scowls, focused, determined.
"This time. This time for sure.." she slightly muttered to herself.
"AHHHHHHH!" She hallowed as she cleared the barrier. She sees that Hiccup as already knocked the gronckel out.
AhhhhhaAhhhhhhUGGGG!! NO! NO!!" She screamed as Hiccup shrugged if he's as unhappy about the situation as she was.
A loud clack rang out from the crowd above. Gothi, the village elder, steps towards tapping her staff. Everyone lights up excitedly.
"Wait! Wait!" The chief exclaimed.
"So...later!" Says Hiccup. Gobber snags Hiccup as his attempted to leave.
"Not so fast!" Gobber warns.
"I'm kinda late for..." Hiccup started but got interrupted by Astrid.
"For what!!?? Late for what exactly!!??" She pants as she held up her axe up to his throat.
Stoick holds up his hands to quiet the crowd.
"Okay! Quiet down. They elder has decided!" Thrilled, Gobber stands behind Hiccup and Astrid. He points to Astrid as the crowd waits silently in anticipation.
Gothi shakes her head 'no' the crowed goes, "ohhhh." Gobber then points to Hiccup, as she nods her head, 'yes' in affirmative. The crowd erupted in cheers.
Astrid turns slowly to give a seething, deadly glare at Hiccup.
"You've done it! You've done it, Hiccup! You get to kill the Dragon!!" Gobber cheered.
"Ha ha! That's my boy!" Yelled his father from the stands.
Hiccup was hoisted up onto the recruits shoulders, and carried out into the cheering spectors.
Hiccup, trying to hide his panic, says, "heh heh! Yeah, yes! I can't wait. I'm...so..."
"Leaving... "
Cuts off to Hiccup near the lake, and a big basket that he leaned against a rock.
"We're leaving! let's Pack up, it looks like you and me are taking a little vacation.... forever...."
Toothless is nowhere in sight. Hiccup sets his basket down and opens it, his head flowed with troubles.
"Oh, man..." Hiccup mumbles under his breath. He looks up to the sound of shinks. He looks up startled to find.... Astrid sitting on a rock right in front of him, sharpening her axe.
"Ahh, what the!" He says almost stumbling over a rock.
"What are you doing here?" He asked.
She hops off the rock and backs his down, spinning her axe threatening.
Hiccup eyes darted around nervously searching for Toothless.
".... I want to know what's going on, no just gets as good as you do, especially you! Now start talking!!" Astrid said getting closer as word escaped her mouth.
"Uh, training?" Hiccup muttered nervously.
"It better not involve this!!"She says pulling him up by his harness.
"I know this looks really bad, but you see, this...uh..." They heard rustling coming from the other side of the cove.
Astrid drops Hiccup to the ground and goes forward to investigate.
Hiccup tries to block and distract her, "Your right, your right, I'm threw with the lies, I've been making....outfits. so you got me, it's time everyone new, drag me back, go ahead, here we goooo..." Astrid interrupted him by grabbing his arm and twisting it back. Making him fall backward.
