Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. I was unmotivated and I had online school to worry about but I saw how this story unexpectedly got to 1k reads so I decided to update. I will try to update more over the summer but I won't make any promises. Sorry

It was a becoming a daily routine now for Astrid to be worried and lost in thought. So much so everyone was getting worried and she wouldn't focus when they would get into trouble. Usually getting away with Astrid apologizing and one of the gang getting hurt.

Snotlout: *grumpy noises*

Snotlout had gotten is arm broken when they ran into wild dragons. Astrid wasn't paying attention and didn't help out when a wild Nadder was gonna attack Snotlout and he broke is arm. Luckily it was a clean break so it should heal soon.

Tuffnut: *trying not to touch his eye*

Tuffnut was also hurt. During a Changwing attack they poked his eye with their tails while trying to fight them off alone. There's a high chance that he won't see out of left eye again.

The rest of the gang on the other hand has had a few scratches and bruises but otherwise fine.

Astrid: Looks guys I'm sorry but-
Valka: Astrid I know you are worried but you need to calm down and have hope. We already have two riders that might         
            not be able to fight that well and we don't need more.
Eret: Valka is right. If you don't loosen up it can be horrible, and believe me I know.
Astrid: I'll try... but I'm still worried....
Tuffnut: Maybe we can help you calm down. I'll teach you what helps me and Snotlout not be mad at you. -_-
Snotlout: Yeah, and im not gonna lie when I say it works. -_-

Astrid just stared at them and then looked at Valka and Eret.

Astrid: I'll give it a try... and I said I was sorry
Ruffnut: Sorry doesn't cut it for blinding my brother!

At Grimmel's Base

Ever since Hiccup killed the Nadder we was silent and lost in thought. He let all of it get into his head and now he doesn't try to rebel because what would his village and friends think when they find out? What does Toothless his best bud think that HE killed a dragon in front of him? But in other words he was obedient and Grimmel was happy that he wouldn't try to rebel anymore. Now he could control him and train him with ease.

Grimmel plans to use Hiccup and Toothless to destroy New Berk and the peace between dragon and man. After he's done then he will kill the Night Fury and finish what he started. He hasn't decided if he wanted to kill Hiccup so he's leaving that in fate's hands.

Right now Hiccup was in his cell twiddling his thumbs. He was doing well in training that Grimmel have him the day off and so he could really figure out his actual plan.

Grimmel: Oh do cheer up. Soon this will all be over and you'll either be dead or in the hands of your friends and village.

Hiccup looks up from his hands and looks at Grimmel

Grimmel: You don't have to look at me like that. I'm not the one who killed that dragon in front of my best friend. I've been keeping him away from you for a reason.

Hiccup just looked out the tiny window that showed the arena. He hated himself for what he did and that he was letting this go to his head. But in his mind it's all over and there was no hope.

Toothless on the other hand left betrayed that his friend had killed an innocent dragon but knew he didn't do it on purpose. The Light Fury on the other hand was furious but Toothless had tried to explain to her that it wasn't on purpose, yet it didn't chance the fact that he did. Grimmel would also come down to train both of them to be under control. Toothless was more stubborn so he had use the Light Fury as his leverage. Toothless hated this but he didn't want him or Hiccup getting hurt no matter his actions so in his mind also there wasn't much of a choice.

It was getting harder and harder for him to have hope for Hiccup everyday. Seeing him training and under control doing things he wouldn't willing do without a fight really broke him. His hope was slowly fading but he still hoped that Astrid and the others were coming to their rescue.

At New Berk

It was getting difficult for Gobber and Fishlegs to control the village for it was taking forever to bring Hiccup and Toothless back. Getting hit with questions like 'Where are they?', 'How much longer?' and 'What if they never come back?'.

Fishlegs was freaking out under all this pressure and Gobber was losing his mind. But they still tried to give them hope that they had it all under control and it would all be fine. At least they hoped it was.
