"That's what you think!"
No it can't be! Why is he here? He should be at the apartment building. He shouldn't be here!
Having heard want he believed to be Jack's voice Hiccup found strength to get up, even if it was only to his knees. As Hiccup sits there, on his knees, he takes in the scene in front of him.
Nest to him stood Dagur with the remote to his shock collar, grinning. In the center of the room stood the Dragons, surrounded by Berserkers but glaring at Dagur.
Then blue eyes capture green. There stood Jack away from everyone else holding the staff Hiccup was still working on making perfect for him. He looked so natural with the staff, just like the sculpture Hiccup made him for Christmas.
Hiccup's heart swelled with love at see the younger male after so long but then it filled with dread.
He shouldn't be here! He could get hurt!
Don't worry we will protect him.
"Ha. You're Jack right?"
Dagur's voice broke through Hiccup's thoughts. He noticed Jack stiffen a little.
"Yes. And?"
Dagur looked like he was trying to hide his laughter.
"Nothing I was just thinking. All the people Hiccup cares about, ALL he tried to protect have voluntarily walked in to the war zone."
Hiccup's eyes widened.
"No, Dagur that was part of the deal."
Dagur turned his head towards Hiccup placing a hand under the brunets chin, forcing his head higher.
"No Hiccup. We promised we would not threaten, attack or harm them. That means we couldn't go after them. This is different, they have come after us. We are only defending ourselves. You understand right?"
Dagur turned back to Jack.
"Now how about I show you what happens due to you being here and threatening us."
With another grin on his face, Dagur pushed the button once again.
Hiccup felt the pain straight away and once again could not stop a scream from being released. His back arched once again, forcing him to face the ceiling. Laughter could be heard over his screaming as well as shouting from the others.
Suddenly the pain left. Hiccup's body relaxed collapsing forward. Leaving him in a daze.
"You see Jack. Every time you threaten us you cause Hiccup pain. I'd be more careful if I was you."
"Hiccup! Hiccup are you ok? Please be ok!"
Jack's frantic voice cut through the warehouse and snapped Hiccup from his daze. Once again Hiccup somehow found the strength to at least sit up. His muscles twitching still from the shock.
"I'm ok Jack. Don't worry."
Even to Hiccup his voice sounded weak and nowhere near convincing.
Dagur's laugh catches Hiccup attention.
"Of course you are. They won't be though."
Hiccup's head jerks up towards Dagur before looking towards Jack. The Dragons had already started fighting the Berserkers again. A couple were fighting Jack, who to Hiccup's surprise was able to easily able to defend himself using the staff.
"Don't you love it Hiccup. Watching the Dragons being crushed by the Berserkers after all these years."
Hiccup let a growl rumble from his chest.
"Now, now Hiccup. Those sounds should only be heard in the bedroom."
Hiccup had stopped paying attention to Dagur and had his eyes focused on Jack. Hiccup noted that Jack's fighting abilities had improved and he was easily defending himself from the Berserkers. Unfortunately Jack is used to one on one and was struggling with three. One managed to strike him, making him collapse on the floor. They moved to grab him when a voice cut through the air.
"DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH HIM! LEAVE HIM ALONE!"
Raged ripped through his body before everything went black.
