The Soul Of A Night Fury [How To Train Your Dragon] EDITING

Raw Fish

Astrid's P.O.V.

I sit with the others waiting for Hiccup. He's still with his father.

Ruff and Tuff were fighting over a roasting stick, Snotlout was quietly cooking a chicken and Fishlegs was reading the dragon book.

I'm a little worried about Hiccup. I hope he's not sick or something.

I could tell what happened earlier scared him a little. It scared me too.

I sighed roasting my fish over the fire.

"Hey, sorry i didn't mean to this late," I hear Hiccup's voice.

All of us look over to see him come to us.

"Well at least you're here!" I say as he sits beside me.

As he sits the crew climb over to him.

"What's going on?"

Ruff squashed his face looking at him closely.

"Is it true you're eyes were like a dragons?" She asked.

"Um...." Hiccup started.

"Weren't they blue?" Snotlout asks him.

"Yesh...." Hiccup answers unable to speak properly.

Fishlegs looked closely to Hiccup.

"Will you pwease leht go of meh!" Hiccup hissed pushing then away from him.

The all sat down looking at him.

"So did you're dad take you to Gothi?" I ask.

He looked at me. His eyes were still blue, but they weren't slits.

So I guess they'll stay that colour for a while.

"Yeah, but she doesn't know what it is, but she thinks it has something to do with this scar," hiccup told me moving his bags to reveal a long red scar on his forehead.

Was that for the Red Death battle? All his cuts and bruises have healed already.

"Where'd it come from?" Tuff asked as he started cooking a fish.

"I dunno, I never noticed it before," Hiccup told him.

"You can never see you're forehead, you're bangs are too long stupid!" Snotlout told him.

Hiccup shot him a look.

"What does that have to do with anything?" I asked.

"I don't know. He said he's never seen it before, so I figured it's because of his really long bangs." Snotlout admitted.

"Whatever," Hiccup hissed.

His temper is changed to. He never snaps this much.

"So, she doesn't know?" Fishlegs asked.

"No!"

"That's weird. It's not like anyone to have their eye colour change." Fishlegs told me.

Hiccup didn't respond. He picked up a fish giving it a small sniff.

"These are rotten," he says.

How does he know that?

"How do you know that?" Tuff asked.

" 'Cause, I can smell it!"

"But we just caught them!" I tell him.

"Well, a lot of them are either rotten or have been poisoned." Hiccup told us.

Ruff and Tuff insanely spit their fish out.

"Poisoned?"

"I'm just staying, I'm not saying they are but they might be," Hiccup told them picking up another fish giving it a quick sniff.

"This ones fine!" he adds slowly picking it apart.

"Hiccup? You feeling okay?" Snotlout asked him.

Good I'm not the only one creeped out about Hiccup.

"I feel great! Why?" Hiccup asked slowly putting a piece of the fish in his mouth.

That was raw! That's so gross!

"Um.... You just ate a raw fish," I tell him.

He looked at me.

"Yeah so?"

"You hate raw fish!" Snotlout told him.

"We'll it just tastes good!" Hiccup told us.

"But, you swore you'd never eat raw fish after you were forced to eat it by Toothless," I tell him.

"People change!" he said to me.

"Tell me about it.." Tuff whispered to Ruff.

"Heard that!" Hiccup said out loud.

He heard that?! Tuff barely whispered.

It was quiet, not even a person with the best hearing could hear him. Hiccup has terrible hearing. He never listens. And he heard that?!

"You heard that?" Fishlegs asked him.

"Apparently."

"You sure you're okay?" I ask him.

"I'm fine,"

"... Okay...."

Hiccup slowly stood up.

"I got to go, my dad wants me home. He wants to keep close eye on me." Hiccup told us going to Toothless.

"Okay, do we have training tomorrow?" I ask him.

"Yes,"

He opened Toothless' tail.

"Later!" He told us the shot up into the air disappearing in the dark.

I tuned to the gang after he left.

"Is he?" I starting.

"Acting weird? Yes!" Snotlout answered.

"He ate raw fish!" Fishlegs said.

"And he heard what I said," Tuffnut added.

"He could tell if the fish was rotten or not!" Snotlout piped on.

"And he ate raw fish!" Fishlegs repeated.

"You already said that!" I say.

"I know, but this is all not Hiccup like." He says.

"No, it's not. you're right!" I say.

"What's making him act like this then?" Ruffnut asked.

"I dunno, let's keep our eye on him." Snotlout suggested to us.

"And once we know what's up, we'll come down and confront him, he's known to be a bad liar. He'll snap under the pressure." Snotlout added.

"Yeah," we all agreed.

He sneered taking a bite of his chicken.

"Hiccup won't even know what hit him."
