it was getting dark as all the people of Berk we're getting back to their huts, stoick was left alone with nothing but his thoughts
he had the whole jail to himself, he hated that he was lone and couldn't get the information he needed so easily anymore, stoick had to think of something, something get him out of this jail, something that he could use, he had more then enough time, and he could still use that to his advantage, he hated to wait but was his only option and in the meantime he practice some more strategies for when he got out.
hiccup walked to Alvin's hut making sure he wasn't seen by wear a hooded cloak, he knocked on the door and smiled when seeing alvin opened it, walking in he removed his hood " so how did things go to day alvin?, good i hope " Alvin smiled and chuckled at the silly little boy acting like some shadowy bad guy, it was cute really, hiccup turned around with goofy smile, big green eyes look up at him
alvin and him had fun chat that night before hiccup left to go to bed, happy that everything was coming together
months later the berserkers were getting ready to go to berk to sign their annual peace treaty, dagur could barely wait to see hiccup again, hiccups shy and sweet demeanor was a welcome change of pace for dagur, dagur couldn't wait to teach hiccup to hunt and show him how a real man is, dagur could already see hiccup looking up at him in awe, he was already so gitty as they board and ready for the long trial head, not knowing the surprise they were in for
hiccup was running around excited for this year's peace treaty signing with the berserkers, Alvin smiled at hiccups excitement and burst of energy, oh to be young again Alvin enjoyed watching hiccup run around but he was waiting for the right time to give hiccup his gift and now seemed perfect, Alvin called hiccup over to his hut " lad, can you come here for a minute?" walking in hiccup was smiling from ear to ear, Alvin handed him a present " lad I want you to 'ave this " hiccup looked at him with big eyes and carefully open the gift inside was a ram horn halmet, grayish white tunic, grayish black pants, a pair of spiked forearm gauntlets and wolf skinned boots like one's he had when he was little he looked up at Alvin and smiled looking delighted with the gift, hiccup got up a gave him a hug, tears started to roll down his cheeks " this is one of the kindest gifts I've ever gotten..." he smiled and patted the boys head, hiccup left to go get changed
hiccup got dressed in the new outfit with a smile and walked around the village, gobber was happy to see hiccup to have gotten a kind gift he just hated that it was Alvin who got for it him but he did have to admit that Alvin wasn't looking like such a bad guy and even some of villagers were starting to like him a bit, not trust I mind you but like him, gobber knew that stoick still had some tribesman loyal to him but knew that stoick may never get out so he had no need to worry
dagur was eagerly waiting on the boat to to dock in the harbor, all he could do was wait seeing hiccup, would be great and dagur could make hiccup a great warrior like him and the rest of the berserkers and maybe they could play a prank on stoick, dagur let out a laugh as he fixed himself up a bit when he heard the horn signaling that they were close to Berk, he was getting gitty all over again
they landed on the dock but when Oswald and Dagur stepped out on the boat there was no sign of stoick or hiccup anywhere, the father-son pair were usually at the dock waiting for them to show them respect for coming to the treaty, they got off the boat and walked up the dock way, something seemed off about berk, the more they looked they more evidence that found that something was definitely not right about Berk, there were people that had never met before working around the houses and when there was a dragon flying around they didn't shoot at it or even alert the others to its presence nothing, as they went deeper into the village it suddenly hit Oswald, these people weren't from Berk they were from outcast island... Oswald tried to quickly grab dagur, when he saw hiccup the boy was dressed like an outcast and was running to them " dagur, mister Oswald how are you!" dagur was confused seeing hiccup like this before they saw Alvin coming there way
he was wearing the chief stoicks cape, dagur was mirroring his father's expression of surprise and horror, Alvin chief of the outcasts was here on Berk and was wearing something the represented power to the village, what surprised the more was that hiccup was completely fine no bruises or marks on him " i see ya found your way here safe " hiccup smiled and jumped around something he or dagur never seen before
" dagur you wanna go to my hut and play?" hiccup was all full of energy rocking back and forth on his feet and was smiling ear to ear before he drag dagur back to his hut, Oswald couldn't have heard that right did hiccup just say his hut as in he lives alone?, they that couldn't be right he then remembered alvin and looked him with non to pleased look on his face " so you finally did it, i can only assume stoick it dead?" he hated to think the hiccup was left for our father but what caught his attention was what was said next " no, the ass is still alive " Alvin walked off and didn't look back all seemed to be at peace but something was rubbing him the wrong way
hiccup drag dagur all the way to his house
and showed him around, dagur looked at the place it looked nice and warm but he didn't see stoick anywhere and his door was locked " hiccup, where your dad at? " dagur notice the way the hiccups face changed, it was no longer bubbling full of life but now is slightly full of dread " we talk about that later dagur, im sure you'd like the look around a bit around the village" dagur could see that he would get no where by asking questions so he left , the village normal looking but what bothered him was the fact that everyone seemed so relaxed around the dragons almost as if it was normal for them to be there, dagur had to get to the bottom of this, he found his dad and headed back to ship for a talk and what to do next
