Part 7
Hiccup grumbled as he came to. He wanted to move his hands only to find out that they were cuffed together behind his back. "Don't bother Hiccup" He heard from his left. He looked over and saw Tuffnut next to him, also cuffed.
"What happened?" He grumbled as a headache started forming.
"I'll tell you what happened!" someone shouted and Hiccup now looked to his right and saw the large bounty hunter from before. "We were captured by that no good lowlife pirate scum."
"Hey now, no need for name calling." Hondo appeared with a hand over his heart. "You'll hurt my feelings."
"Hondo why are we here?" Hiccup asked.
"Why you're my hostages of course." Hondo chuckled.
"But why three of us?" Tuffnut now asked.
"My friend as my sweet mother always said, 'son, if one hostage is good, two are better, and three, well, that's just good business!'" the pirate laughed. "Besides the two of you have bounties on your heads." he said while gesturing to Hiccup and Tuffnut. "What sort of businessman would I be if I didn't try to profit off of that."
Hiccup really wanted to punch the pirate and struggled to get out of the cuffs. "You can try all you want, I took the liberty of borrowing the Mandalorian's cuffs. Not even Force users can get out of those." Hondo laughed before walking away.
"He's right about those cuffs. They are known to hold Force users." The bounty hunter stated.
"Great just great." Hiccup sighed.
"I'm Eret by the way."
"Tuffnut's the name." The blond introduced. "The sulking one here is Hiccup."
"I'm not sulking"
Eret who was watching Hiccup closely commented "You look awfully innocent for someone who has a bounty on their head. So what are you really? You don't act like a Jedi even if that is what they are calling your group. Trust me. I've seen Jedi before."
"It's a long story." Hiccup mumbled. "Why are you so interested anyways?"
"Well we've got time." Eret said. "And I'm naturally curious."
"Not really, knowing Astrid, she's already coming to get us." Hiccup said even when he could only sense sincerity from the hunter.
"Oh man. She going to be furious." Tuffnut laughed.
"How about a summary then?" Eret asked. "It has to be something big."
"I guess I can do that, if you tell us why you are after Hondo. You mentioned a holocron." Hiccup said.
"Deal"
Meanwhile, ten minutes ago, Tuffnut's statement was spot on as the rest of the group had awoken and Astrid began cursing up a storm.
"Why that no good troll of a......"
"I did not need to hear that." Fishlegs whispered as the group kept their distance from the irate woman who was pacing.
"That son of a munch bucket eating......." Astrid continued pacing, not at all hearing the conversation the others were having.
"You and me both." Ruffnut whispered back. "Who knew such words existed."
"How dare he kidnap MY Hiccup!" Astrid slammed her fist against the wall. "I'm going to skewer him when I find that pirate!"
"Did she even realize what she said?" Heather now whispered as Huyang checked on the still unconscious bounty hunter. Fishlegs let out a sigh. "She has it bad."
