Hiccup's POV
One Hour Later
I was in the blacksmith shop working on something.
"What you working on chief", Gobbler asked.
"I'm designing dragon scale armor", I revealed.
"Dragon scale armor", Gobbler asked.
"If I can't go with my friends on missions, I can at least make sure that they'll be protected", I said. "At least a bit."
"I know it must be hard seeing your friends go out on adventures while you're stuck here", Gobbler started. "But Spitetlout is right. You have responsibilities to Berk now."
"I understand", I said. "A chief protects their own right?"
"Right", Gobbler agreed. "Your father would be proud of you staying behind so you can fulfill your duties."
"You really think so", I asked.
"I know so", Gobbler replied.
Then I heard a roar.
I turned around and saw my friends riding back in on their dragons.
"They're back", I said. "Good."
With that I walked up to my friends just as they landed.
"Welcome back", I greeted. "How'd it go? Was it just a hoax?"
"Actually", Astrid started. "It wasn't."
"Wait", I said in shock. "What?"
"It was an actual Nightfury", Fishlegs revealed. "You should've seen it Hiccup! It was amazing!"
"I call dibs", Snotlout said earning a glare from Hookfang.
"I can't believe it", I said. "This is amazing! Did you hear that buddy? We've found you a new friend!"
"That's only if we can get it on our side", Astrid stated. "And that won't be easy. It looked like it had been treated badly. Getting it to trust humans won't be easy."
"And that's where you come in chief", Eret said as he put his arm around my shoulder.
"Me", I asked in confusion.
"You've tamed a Nightfury before", Eret pointed out. "So who says you can't do it again?"
"You have a point there", I stated. "Okay then. Get some rest and we'll ride out in the morning."
When I said that everybody cheered.
Then I heard somebody clear their throat.
I turned around and saw Spitelout.
"Hiccup", he started. "We need to talk."
"Okay", I said before turning to face my friends. "I'll see you guys tomorrow."
With that I left with Spitelout.
"What did I tell you earlier Hiccup", he asked me. "You can't just go running off! You have responsibilities here."
"But they really need me this time", I stated.
"And Berk needs you", Spitelout pointed out. "What if something happens while you are gone? What if somebody attacks?"
With that I looked down sadly.
"But", I started. "What about my friends?"
"Your friends are not your priority anymore Hiccup", Spitelout stated. "Berk is. Tell them that."
With that Spitelout left, and I turned to look at Toothless sadly.
"What am I going to do buddy?"
HotXbun: Poor Hiccup.
Challenge: Tell me what you think is going to happen next.
My Answer: Bad things.
