Cliff Runner

by Minerva Fowl

I am the "dead" daughter of Hiccup and Astrid. (takes place where the 3rd movie left off) (I do not own How to Train Your Dragon, I do own the content of this story and some of the characters)

10. The Two Cliff Runners

I wake up and Adrian is awake looking down on my head, "How you doing, Princess?" I glare at him and he just smirks. He bends down and kisses me, I look at him, wondering if he didn't rat me out. I feel like he did.

I stand up and look around in the trees. There's no one. "Listen." I say. "Here's the plan. Tie my hands together." I explained as I put my hands behind my back and toss him the rope. " Take me to my father. Kick me, don't fake it. We need to sell this. Say, 'I'll let you have your daughter if you give me money and a ship.' Hold the ax to my head while you say it. I'll revolt. We'll say, 'Toodles!' and leave. Got it?" He nods and carries me down the steps.

We walk through the woods and into town. Adrian screams, "Chief!" Dad comes out and Adrian pushes me down to my knees. I look at dad straight in the eyes. I won't break eye contact. Adrian pushes the ax near my neck. "I want the two hundred. And a ship. Or she dies." I know that he won't actually hurt me, but I'm genuinely scared. Not that I'll die but that my father will see through the plan.

I jerk up a cut the ropes with the ax. I take it from him and step back. "You know what?" I ask. "Yes?" he replies. "I'm done with this." I walk up to my father who is standing there at a lost for words. I thrust the ax into his hands and fall onto my knees. "Go ahead. I know you want to."

Instead he gives the ax to my mother, which is standing by him like a statue. "Look at us." he said. "Did you think we would to you?" I smirked and replied, "Actually, I was counting on it."

I whistled, hoping my dragons would come. I ran grabbed my ax from my mother's hands. "WM!" I scream. I reach for his foot and I realize I shouldn't do this. I shouldn't make them do this. I run towards Adrian. "Do you trust me?" I ask. "Do I have a choice?" he replied. "This time you do." I say looking him in the eyes. "Yes. I trust you with my life Marigold." he said. "Then jump with me." I say hope draining from my voice.

We run towards the cliff holding hands. We jump and he holds me to his chest. I look at him before we hit the waves and kiss him. For what I believe the final time.

OK. Guys this is important. Do you want a sequel, another chapter, a happy ending? I need to know. PM or comment your vote. Thanks. (I feel like Rick Ridorian right now because I gave you guys a terrible cliff-hanger)
