Although Hiccup wanted to burst with questions, he knew better than to interupt, so he stayed quiet and listened.

"do we have any other information of the one who did it?'' The red head growled.

"all we know is that it was male, and he came from Burgess, George had the mark of the cresent moon burned onto his skin"

"what about Merida?'' Dagur pinched the bridge of his nose.

"she checked in with me earlier,she managed to steal intel from Burgess, maybe she got something from the guy. But once she was back in Berk, she found a spy from Burgess in our territory and got in a fight with her."

Before Dagur could speak again his phone buzzed in his pocket, checking it, he sighed and walked towards the door.

"You're coming with me" he pointed at Fishlegs and then at Hiccup,  "and you're free to go" he said before leaving. 

"Looks like I came at the right-" Fishlegs was cut short when he felt two arms wrap around him.

"If you wouldn't have come, who knows what he would've done to me" Hiccup's voice cracked.

"Hey hey" Fishlegs turned his head around and then back at Hiccup before whispering, "between you and me, you should thank the mystery Assasin,  if he hadn't killed, I wouldn't have had a message to deliver" he smiled and guided Hiccup to the door.

"I have to go, you go do your own thing" Fishlegs smiled before he walked out. Hiccup sighed in happiness and relief, knowing that he won't have to deal with Dagur in a while. Securing the mask to his belt, he made his way back to the rooftop of the Gym and stared at the glistening stars.

The white specks of light made his thoughts go back to the hodded figure,
Could he be the mystery assasin?

Without thinking,  his hand went to his neck and tugged at the chain hidded within his clothes. He had to thank lady luck that Dagur hadn't seen it. Slowly, he pulled out the small dragon pendant with emerald eyes.

He couldn't help but wonder where it had come from, no matter how much he tried to remember,  his memory went blank.

"Why don't you just get rid of that old thing?" He jumped at the sudden Scottish voice.

"How do you manage to sneak up on me Merida? " he chuckled and shook his head. "I can't throw it away, I feel like if it's important, special, I don't know, when I look at the dragon I feel...happy"

"Is Dagur still giving you those pills Hic? Because obviously if he stopped, your memories would've came back already". He nodded. "Forced or willingly"

"Forced"

Merida growled and stood to throw a piece of brick off the building. 

"I swear if he keeps feeding you those pills I will personally cut off his hands" she threw her arms up in anger.

"Oh calm down, they haven't killed me"

"Yet!" She interrupted.  "Hiccup those pills are designed to destroy the memory cells in your brain, what if something goes wrong and you end up dying from them?" Before she could continue her anger outburst, Hiccup wrapped his arms around her and forced her to sit next to him. Although, what she was saying was true, he could die from them one day.

"Ok ok, I promise I'll try not to swallow them, but I told you he forces me, but I'll think of a way" he assured her.

"You better" she smiled and pushed him away, "I don't like hugs and cuddling remember?"

"Yeah I remember" he smiled and gasped when he saw the same flash of white. He quickly stood up, startling Merida.

"Hey! What's-"

"Shh!" He cut her off and stared at the hodded figure, without another word, he quickly put on his mask and have chase.

"Hic wait!" He heard Merida yell from afar but he kept running towards the other male. I won't let you get away this time.

He quickly managed to catch up to the guy only to notice how much taller the hodded man stood. They both came to a stop at the rooftop of some apartment complex, the hodded man's back to Hiccup as he faced the edge of the building. 

Slowly the man turned around,  although his eyes were hidden within the darkness of his hood, Hiccup could still feel his gaze burn through him. The masked assasin watched carefully as the hodded man slightly shook his head, and before he knew it, mystery man had reached behind him and flung a dagger at Hiccup's direction.
