Forever Mine
I Own Nothing
Chapter Nine
Hiccup's P.O.V
I awoke from my peaceful sleep and found myself alone, Dagur was nowhere to be found. I looked around for a few minutes, but nothing he was gone but the door was still locked tight, or from what I could tell from where I was at. I sat up for a few more minutes, then I finally notice a new pair of clothes waiting for me, along with my leg. I quickly scooted over and picked it up and strapped it back on, then I saw the new clothes, it was a long grey tunic along with long pair of pants, on the side was the boot. I put them on and just waited for a few minutes, then I finally got up and walked around, but as soon as I did that I felt winded as if my knees were getting ready to cave in.
I managed to catch myself, ever since I started getting sick I felt my entire body getting weak, I hadn't really eaten in a while son I really didn't think much of it. Dagur was trying his best to feed me, trying to get me to fattened up. I wasn't going to be putting on any weight anytime soon, even if I ate every hour it still wouldn't do much to me, I was always going to thin and lanky no matter what. I assumed I got all of this from my mothers side of the family, I was never going to be thick in muscle.
After a little while the door finally unlock, I looked up and Dagur walked through the door with a grin on his face."How are you feeling baby?"
I shrugged."Okay I guess."
He sat next to be, wrapping his arm around me, I was still looking a little pale from all the vomiting yesterday. I still didn't feel hungry, just weak and tired still as if I was getting ready to pass out again, I could feel my head spinning a bit, Dagur took a quick notice.
"Whoa Whoa Whoa, are you sure your okay?" He grabbed my face, looking at me with worried eyes."Hiccup your scaring me, maybe I should just take you back to the island, get you check out by a midwife." He pulled me close to him, he was warm, it felt nice to be honest."Lay back down and I'll go get you something okay?" he patted my cheek before kissing my forehead and leaving me alone again, but before he left me again."Oh don't worry, were almost done getting the Skrill out, will be going home soon." He then closed the door again.
I sighed and laid all the way back down, snuggling into the soft furs, I buried my head into the pillows, closing my eyes shut and taking in a deep breath. It was only time now until that beast was busted out from the ice, I felt scared thinking about that Skrill being out into the real world. It was only hours until he would finally have what he wanted, he wanted me and he wanted his dragon.
How was I going to help him? How was I going to help Dagur control this mighty beast? This dragon was going to kill me as soon as I stepped one foot near it, I couldn't help him tame this dragon he was nuts. But I really don't have a choice right now, I was sick and weak in the knees, but maybe I can get out of this somehow, all I have to do is pass out or start throwing up, Dagur won't let me go out in the cold if I'm sick like this, I could barely stand up at this point, I'm running a high fever I think, my hands were getting a bit clammy, my throat felt dry I needed some water or something.
I rolled over trying to get comfortable, I was getting really warm, maybe I should get up and get some water. I get up and walk over and grabbed a cup of water, pouring some water in and taking a long swing of it, filling me up a bit. I placed my hand on my forehead, I was getting warm. I stumbled a bit as I got back into the bed, pulling the covers over me trying to get comfortable as possible, but it didn't really help me, I tossed and turned for a few minutes. I could feel myself getting sick, oh no.
I grabbed my stomach again, it was still early morning, why am I throwing up every morning, it's been two days now, I don't think this is any kind of flu. if this was the flu would have been a lot worse. When ever I had the flu I would have been puking all over the place, my fever would have been much higher then this little one I have. I was over reacting at this point, this would soon pass I hope, I hated being sick, I tried eating but every time I did I would just throw it back up, my dad always made this soup that would make me feel better, I missed my dad, I wish he was here right now. But that was never going to happen, I was Dagur's property now, he was taking care of me now, I mean he was trying at least.
Then I heard the door open, I didn't bother to look because my stomach was hurting a bit, I knew I was going to throw up again soon, I didn't want to get up and start puking all over the place.
I then felt a little nudge."Hey wake up, I got you something to calm your stomach."
I slowly rolled over towards him, Dagur had a large steamy bowl of soup." It'll help settle your stomach, sit up and I'll help you."
He put the bowl down and helped me up, throwing a few pillows behind me so I could sit up, taking the bowl to his lap and started to feed me. I took the spoon fulls of the hot soup, calming my stomach a bit giving me some relief, at least I was keeping something down so far, but I was giving my self an hour until I would get sick. As soon as I finished I laid back down, Dagur laid down right next to me, putting a cold rag on my forehead trying to keep my fever down. Dagur buried his face into my neck, I could feel his steady breath on my neck and shoulder, his beard prickled me. I relaxed for a while, we both laid there for a while in peace, I still moved every now and them, Dagur would try to help me.
We both tried settling down for a while, but soon a knock came to the door, Dagur immediately got up to answer the door, it was Savage.
"What is it?" Dagur asked annoyed.
Savage looked breathless."It's done sir, the Skrill is out, it's starting to wake up."
His entire face lit up,"FINALLY!" he yelled all happily, causing me to jump up in fear. He then turned back to me, remembering that I was still sick, then turning back to Savage."I'll be there in a minute." He nodded as Dagur closed the door and walked back to me.
I was already up, looking at him weakly."Listen to me Hiccup, I just need you to show me how to control this dragon, okay?" he cupped my cheek looking at me sweetly."I just need you to show me how this works, okay?"
My heart was pounding the entire time, but I nodded. Dagur picked me up bridal style, taking me out of the chamber and leading me up all the way to the deck, all his men were gather around the now thawing off Skrill she was slowly waking up, the thought of her waking up made me scared. This Skrill was more free rage, the only weakness for them was water.
Dagur was enjoying the entire thing, he was looking at her like she was the most wonderful thing in the world, the Skrill was a large dragon with dark purple and grey scales and large wings and long claws, able to blend into the clouds, with a spike crown on it's head. She was all he ever wanted in a dragon, she was intimidating and fearsome with a deadly attitude. It was as big as a monstrous nightmare, it's speed was eleven nineteen on lightning witch was worse in this case, because the Beserker tribe was known for it's violent lighting storms.
She was a kill on sight, a perfect killer in the making.
"There she is Hiccup." Dagur whispered to me in a dark tone."Theirs my dragon, and your going to help me train her."
I gulped as I looked right at her, I was scared, and I couldn't afford to be afraid if she were to even get a whiff of that fear I would be dead in a second, I felt weak in the knees then I got closer to her, Dagur continued to carry me up, I just wanted to run and never look back at her. She was twitching a bit, slowly coming to after being frozen for the last three years. I had to be strong, Dagur stopped for a second, looking at me wanting to know what to do next.
"Put me down." I whispered, after a few minutes he did. I slowly got on my hands and knees and crawled up to the unconscious Skrill, my hand was shaking as I was getting ready to press my hand onto her snout, but as soon as I was getting ready to do it, her eyes open wide looking into my soul, I jumped back as she growled at me, I slowly back up as she started to move against me. I froze for a second as we both looked at each other for a minute, she was still pissed being woken up like this, having a human straight up in her face like that. I clenched my fist still shaking a bit, I tried my best to calm myself before trying to do it again, I just need to focus.
I calmed down for a minute and tried again, but this time she snapped her jaws at me, causing me to jump back again, she started moving towards me, then turned her snout onto my belly, giving it a whiff almost scenting something inside of me, I looked at her confusedly wondering what the Hell she was doing. But before I could react, darts were shot out of no where as she quickly let out a roar and collapsed right next to me, I looked back up as Dagur held a dart pipe in his hand, putting it down as he helped me. The men started started to pick the knocked out Skrill, putting her into one of the cages and quickly locking her inside of it. Dagur held me tight in his arms, knowing I was scared of what could have happened, but he knew I was alright.
I gripped his shirt, still scared of what just happened.
"Well...I guess she was just a little pissed from being woken up from her nap." He shrugged as he picked me up."Oh well, we're going home now so don't worry we can get her trained later." He led me away, as I gave the dragon one last look before heading back down.
Once we got back down there, I was put back into bed.
I let out a soft moan, I was starting feel sick again, I tried to ignore the pain, but I couldn't.
Dagur rubbed my back a little."Feeling sick again?"
I quickly nodded, he brought over the bucket and I leaned over, waiting for the awful vile to come up, for a second I waited until it started to come up. This lasted for a few minutes, while dagur held my hand for some odd reason, rubbing my back telling me to let it all out until I was done. I pulled away, tears in the corner in my eyes, my entire mouth was dry and on fire from all the throwing up. I felt light headed as I collapsed back onto the bed."Shhh it's okay Hiccup, It's probably just a little stomach bug, it'll pass soon." He rubbed my back as we made the ship ride home, I couldn't wait to go back, I needed to see Toothless as soon as possible.
My vision was blurry, Dagur put the cold rag on my forehead, trying to get me better, slowly brushing my hair away, feeling my fever, his eyes widen a bit as he felt how warm I was."God you're burning up, as soon as we get back your seeing the healer first." He said concerned, making me feel a bit better. At least Dagur was going make sure I wasn't going to sick on his watch, that was the thing I needed was some illness making my time here with him worse, I didn't want to be anywhere near him, but in a fucked up way he was doing his best not to get angry with me.
The sooner we get back hopefully the better.
