HotXbun: Before we start, I want your guys opinions on something. I was thinking about changing the title of the story to just 'Chief of Berk.' What do you guys think?
DareDreamer: I'm not going to go that dark.

Chapter 6 What You Mean to Me
Hiccup's POV
One Hour Later
I was pacing back and forth in the blacksmith shop.
"Slow down Hiccup", Gobber commanded. "You're going to give me whiplash!"
"I can't help it", I stated. "I have this feeling that something bad has happened."
"You're just worried about your friends that's all", Gobber stated. "I'm sure they're fine. They're tough."
"Hiccup", a viking said as they flew up to me. "A boat has been spotted heading this way!"
"What", I asked in shock. "How many people are on it?"
"Not much", the viking replied. "And they don't appear to be readying themselves for battle."
"Then I'm going to talk to them", I revealed. "But keep your guards up!"
With that I flew the docks.
When I did, a group of people walked out of a boat.
"Who are you", I asked.
"Fret not", one of the people said. "We have just come to give you a message."
With that one of the people gave me an envelope.
It felt heavy. As if something else beside a letter was in it.
Then, the people left and I opened up the letter...and did not like what I saw.
Dear Dragon Master
If you don't want your beloved to be hurt, come to the location marked on this map.
Drago
As soon as I read this, it felt as if my heart had been torn out of my body.
I now knew what was in the envelope that made it feel heavy.
"Please don't be that", I pleaded. "Please be anything else but that!"
With that...I took the item out of the envelope...and dropped it as soon as I saw what it was.
The betrothal necklace I gave Astrid.
When I saw it, I dropped to the ground and covered my hand with my mouth.
"No", I breathed out. "Please no."
"Hiccup", my mom yelled before riding up to me. "What's wrong son?"
Then...my mom noticed the necklace and picked it up.
"This is the betrothal necklace your father gave to me", she pointed out.
"I gave it to Astrid", I revealed. "And this letter is from Drago. That means he...he..."
I didn't finish. Instead, I looked at the ship of people that was currently leaving.
My sadness turned quickly turned into anger.
I glared at the boat, then got onto Toothless.
We flew up to the boat, and then...I jumped off Toothless...and held one of the men at blade point.
The other men tried running up to us, but Toothless cut them off.
"Stay back", I commanded. "Or neither will he."
I then looked back at the man I was holding at blade point.
"Where is he keeping her", I asked.
"It's says so on the map", the man replied in fear.
"Has he hurt her", I asked.
"I don't know", the man replied.
"Take me to her."
Valka's POV
Gobber and I watched Hiccup from our dragons.
"I've never seen this side of him before", I pointed out.
"Can you blame him", Gobber asked. "The man who killed his father has kidnapped the love of his life."
"Love of his life huh", I asked before looking at my betrothal necklace. "He said that he gave this to her. She must mean a lot to him."
"He's practically loved her ever since he was a teenager", Gobber revealed. "Even if he didn't realize it at the time."
"Then I can't let anything happen to her."
HotXbun: Let's hope Astrid is okay.
Challenge: Tell me what you think is going to happen.
My Answer: Hopefully Hiccup will save Astrid.
