Chapter 7
Snotlout awoke to his worst migraine ever! Had Hookfang rammed his head into a bolder again?
The boy slowly rises to his feet before studying his surroundings. He was currently at the bottom of a large pit, how had he … Suddenly the memories came tumbling back. Him wanting the treasure, forming the plan, kidnapping Hiccup and then … His eyes widened as he moves to climb the wall Hiccup had gotten away! He couldn't let him tell his father what he'd done!
Once he reached the top, Snotlout took off in a dead run after his cousin, the only good thing was, Hiccup was unconscious when he was brought here and therefore the boy had no idea where he was, or how to get back to the village.
"Hookfang!" Screams Snotlout into the lifeless forest. Minutes later, the pig headed dragon finally appeared Snotlout revealed the rag he'd used to gag Hiccup "Smell it and find him."
The dragon glared, but did what it was told it was a long shot to actually find a trace of Hiccup, but that wasn't going to stop his rider.
"Got his scent?" Questions Snotlout, his dragon turns and glares, lightly shaking his head in approval as the boy hopped on "After him!"
Hiccup had been wandering the forest for what felt like hours! Where had Snotlout taken him? The boy had long ago given up getting free of his ropes, Snotlout really knew his knots.
"Great, so I'm stuck, tied up in the forest with a crazy Snotlout." States Hiccup sarcastically even though that was his exact situation. His thoughts roamed to his cousin, what was Snotlout thinking? Kidnapping him? The son of the chief! He could be exiled for what he'd done.
"Snotlout, why would you do this?" Questions the boy to himself, his gaze falls to his tightly bound wrists and torso. Suddenly a loud sound is heard, many trees falling around him.
"Ok, hiding is definitely out." Declares the auburn boy before the figure of his large cousin comes into view. "But running isn't!"
Snotlout was beginning to get restless, where was he? The boy is quickly jerked from his thoughts at his dragon's proud growl "What is it Hookfang?"
Said dragon lets loose a small ball of fire, burning down a group of trees. "Hookfang! What are you doing?" Screams Snoutlout until he catches sight of a bound boy in the middle of all the destruction.
"Good job Hookfang, now let's get him." Both boy and dragon took off full speed for the now running Hiccup. Snotlout knew Hookfang could catch Hiccup no problem, but he couldn't keep him quiet and that was essential at this point of time.
"You can't run forever Hiccup!" Speaks the black haired male as the dragon begins flying alongside the now gasping boy.
Hiccup turns to stare at his cousin, why was Snotlout doing this?! He couldn't wrap his brain around the situation. "Snotlout … This … is crazy!"
The older male only smiles as he grabs hold of Hiccup's vest, pulling his small cousin onto his dragon, holding the bound boy tightly, keeping a large hand over Hiccup's mouth.
Hiccup jerked and yelled muffled screams that went on deaf ears, Snotlout wasn't releasing him anytime soon
Once the three were far enough away that Hiccup's screaming wouldn't matter, Snotlout finally released his mouth.
"Thought you could get away Hiccup?"
Hiccup glares angrily at his cousin "What's the point of all this?"
Snotlout remains silent, what was the point? He wondered, Hiccup had told him what he'd needed! He could easily get the treasure now, so why was he dead-set on keeping Hiccup?
For once in his entire life, Snotlout finally really looks at his dweebish cousin, quickly becoming entranced by the boy's girlish figure, the slight red tinge in his brown locks, if only he could see his eyes …
"Hiccup."
Hiccup slightly turns his head at the mention of his name "What?"
"Look at me."
Slowly Hiccup turns his head backwards, craning his neck to face his cousin. Snotlout only stared back, as if he were studying every single detail. "Uh … Snotlout?" Begins Hiccup, only to be stopped by Snotlout's large finger to his lips.
The tension between the two continues to build until finally Hiccup turns away. On that note, Snotlout decides then and there he has no idea what is going on, but Hiccup is a part of it.
"Take us to the caves, Hookfang."
Hiccup's eyes widen "The caves? Why are we going there?"
Snotlout stares as Hiccup's body begins to harden and shake slightly, of course he was scared! The caves were one of the most dangerous places on Berk, If the tide washed in while you were inside, you were a goner.
"Relax Hiccup. It's only temporary."
Hiccup turns to glare at his cousin, giving his signature "I don't believe a word you're saying" look
Snotlout smiles as the group lands just outside a large cavern, quickly he forces a very not willing Hiccup inside before revealing more ropes. "Sit down over there."
When Hiccup shows no signs of listening or moving, Snoutlout takes matters into his own hands as he drags his cousin over to a large rock.
"We can't stay here, Snotlout."
Hiccup slowly fills with fear at the site of the rope in Snotlout's hands, there's no way he'd leave him! He can't! If the tide comes in then … Hiccup is dragged back to reality as the feeling of tight ropes wraps around his body.
Upon inspection, Hiccup can see more ropes knotted to his already bound wrists leading behind him and … Around the large rock!
"No! Snotlout stop!" Cries Hiccup as the rope is knotted even tighter, forcing his wrists into his stomach.
"You can't do this!"
Snotlout glowers in his victory, Hiccup wasn't getting away this time and he had control over him. He smiles at the thought of having complete domination over Hiccup as he wounds another rope, first around Hiccup's body then the rock before pulling tight and starting a series of many knots.
"Let me go!"
Once the boy couldn't move a muscle, Snotlout turned his attention to his legs … Well leg. How could he bind just one leg? Well, the prosthetic is considered a metal leg so what's stopping him from simply tying the two together?
"Snotlout!"
Hiccup attempts to struggle as Snotlout appears in front of him, more rope in his hands, the two stare at one another until Snotlout firmly forces his leg and prosthetic together. Hiccup winces as the metal from his prosthetic is tightly pressed against his right ankle.
"You don't know what you're doing! Snotlout, the tide will come in!"
Once the ankles were done, Snotlout moved to Hiccup's stump and knee, binding the two together painfully, followed by the boy's thighs. He then moves to marvel at what he's done "All wrapped up good and tight."
"Snotlout, you don't have to do this!"
"I'm not going to kill you Hiccup." States Snotlout as he hunches down to Hiccup's face. "I just need to keep you here until I find a new island."
"A new island? What are you planning Snotlout?!"
Snotlout begins to laugh; Hiccup really had no clue what he was in for! And he loved every minute of it. Hiccup was his, he didn't know why he wanted him so badly, but he wasn't planning on letting him go.
" It'll be dawn soon." Says Snotlout sadly
Hiccup's eyes narrowed, why was Snotlout suddenly so sad?
"I have to go for a little while."
Suddenly all of Hiccup's fear came rushing back; he didn't want to be left alone in this cave "No! You can't leave me here!"
Snotlout stares sadly as he pulls the rag out from his pocket, he really didn't want to leave Hiccup here alone, gagged none the less, but if he wanted to keep him in his possession, he'd have no choice.
"No! No, Snotlout don't!" Screams Hiccup as Snotlout gets nearer with the rag.
"I'll drown!"
All resolve was over, Hiccup needed to get out of there
"Help! Someone help me! Hel... Mmmmpphff!" Hiccup's cries are muted once the gag is wrapped tightly over his mouth, as Snotlout ties the final knot securing his silenced fate.
Once the gag was tightly over Hiccup's lips, Snotlout went to leave; the whole time listening to Hiccup's muffled cries and pleas.
So yeah, that just happened. Not sure yet if I am going to make this a SnotloutXHiccup or what, but I do know that Snotlout's desire to possess Hiccup is clouding his judgments. Will Hiccup survive? Will he ever be rescued?
