I am sooooo sorry. I know I said this would be up by Wednesday LAST WEEK. Well, that didn't happen. 1: I had to go to Sydney for a family thing and 2: School= exam block. Enough of my blabbing:

(I forgot to tell you, Hiccup hasn't killed the Red Death yet so he hasn't lost his leg)
Being tossed into the arena was quite a powerful moment for Hiccup. He used to step in a Berks lowlife, now he steps in as Berks most wanted. You might be wondering why he is Berks most wanted, the answer is- wait...let me just tell you:

After the question was asked about his identity, Hiccup ran off. If ANYONE knew who he was, everything would be ruined. He could be killed, Toothless would be killed! Hiccup ran to the rock wall of the cove, "If you let me go, the dragon won't shoot.". He protested. To Hiccup's surprise, the to blondes standing in front of him, let him go. Once Hiccup knew they were out of the cove and had left, he and Toothless scrambled of the cove to a deeper part of the forest, somewhere Hiccup knew he couldn't be found. Hiccup set up camp in a small cave and decided, at night, he would go to the forge and craft a new connection rod.

Walking past the arena, Hiccup noticed the amount of dragons locked in cages. He had no choice, running down through the open gate and to the cages. Very quickly, one by one, Hiccup opened them. From the amount of dragons he had released over the years, he had a bit of experience with the locks. Once every dragon was free, he set of for the forge.

After awhile, the duo were back up in the air, headed in the direction of south. After a few hours of flying, Hiccup realised something. They would continue trapping and hunting dragons if he didn't do something. So he changed his cause and head back to Berk. Hiccup was right. For the 5 hours he was gone, 6 new dragons had been captured. Repeating the process from before, he got them free.

Continuing to repeat the process, day by day, Hiccup set more dragons free. A few days days went by and the chief of Berk, Stoick, was getting mad." Why are all our dragons disappearing?!". Astrid here Stoick yell. A sneaky suspicion was growing in her gut. That man, he rode a dragon. It must be him. So, Astrid organised a stakeout after the camping exercise. It took awhile but during the night. A jet black dragon entered the arena. To make the explanation quick; Hiccup and Toothless got captured.

Now that brings us back to the present. Hiccup is standing in the kill ring being charged with theft. To normal people, theft means prison, to Vikings it means death." State your name!". The Chief yelled. Hiccup could recognised that voice anywhere, his father. Hiccup dared not speak. Luckily, he still had his helmet on, otherwise all hell would break loose. "I SAID STATE YOUR NAME. OTHERWISE YOUR DRAGON GETS IT!". Stoick yelled again. Fear rose up in Hiccups heart, but still he didn't speak. Stoick unsheathed his sword and was about to strike when a villager yelled, "DRAGON RAID!". Everyone stared going out and preparing for battle. "We will deal with this tomorrow.". Stoick said to Hiccup." Astrid, take him to the cells.". The Chief order.

Hiccups POV
"I can't believe you! We should have killed then and there.". Astrid yelled and complained." I knew we should have let you go.". I listened to this until we got to the Great Hall. "I'm sorry ok, but you were going to kill me and then Toothless would have been killed as well."." You care more about dragons than Viking, don't you?". I went silent." Yes, yes I do.". I answered. By now we were underneath the Hall where the prison was.

After the raid, I was taken back to the arena. Same process as before except this time, when the Chief asked for my name I said." I can stop the raids an Save your village.". Of cause being Vikings no one believed me. "I ride a Night Fury, anything is possible.". I stated. This got the Chiefs attention so he let me live but I had to stay in the prison until I proved that I could stop the raids. I got a small portion of food each day and an hour each day to explain my plan.
