"What was that about?" Asks Snotlout as the group continue to stare at the spot Dagur had stood "Has Dagur been sniffing dragon nip or something?"

"He's definitely on something!" Agrees Ruffnut

"Should we be worried?" Questions Fishlegs "I mean Dagur seemed deadly serious."

Astrid scoffs "He's a big talker, Fishlegs, he's just trying to scare us."

"That maniac is not getting my boy's dragon." Declares Stoick, his eyes shine as the sun begins to rise.

"We planned to have Hiccup's party early, but let's postpone until tonight and get some rest, Odin knows we need it."

The teens all nod in agreement and follow their chief back towards the village, Dagur's threat was empty and they had nothing to fear.

Stoick makes sure each of the teens gets home safely, after saying hello and goodnight to their dragons who they'd left home to setup the party they each tucked themselves into bed.

Stoick had attempted to get a few moments of sleep, but couldn't get the deranged berserkers words out of his mind, were the threats empty? If not, what had Dagur done? What was he missing?

A nagging feeling at the back of his mind kept saying Hiccup's name over and over, it would make sense that Dagur had done something to his son.

Stoick began his own investigation into Hiccup's disappearance, going first through the boy's room, noting the scuff marks on the floor.

A fighting scene began to play in his head, Hiccup had been woken up and attacked in his bedroom, by the looks of the footprints his son had managed to run toward the stairs.

Stoick walks the path from the other set of prints to the stairs, Hiccup's weren't seen going down the steps, but a large blob at the bottom told the story.

Hiccup had been pushed or thrown down the steps as the attacker watched from above. Stoick made his way down as the scene continues to play.

Once the attacker makes it downstairs he catches Hiccup, only to lose him judging by the prints a few steps from the door, followed by drag marks.

There was no doubt now, Dagur had attacked and abducted his son. Angrily the father and chief slams the front door as he runs towards the cove.

Meanwhile, Dagur watched the small island from his ship, quite shocked that no one had noticed the missing heir.

The deranged boy smiled as he remembered his little hostage, Hiccup would prove to be useful, he knew it, once that stupid father realizes his baby boy was gone, he'd hand over anything to get him back.

Sneering Dagur makes his way to just below the deck, looking down through the metal bars at the bound and gagged heir.

Hiccup looks up to meet Dagur's gaze, his green eyes stabbing into his deranged kidnappers, he would have spoken a comment he knew would make Dagur mad, if it wasn't for the stupid gag.

"I forgot today was your birthday, brother! You're sixteen now, well let's hope you get to live to enjoy it."

Hiccup yells a muffled retort, but it's indistinguishable so Dagur continues "By this time tomorrow you'll either be back home safe and sound or at the bottom of the ocean, it really depends on your daddy."

Hiccup struggles in the ropes, his father would give up anything to save him, he begged he wouldn't give up his best friend.

Dagur smiles before grabbing a bucket of fish guts and oil, the deranged teen dumps the content straight on Hiccup's head "Can't have your dragon tracking you down, I gotta go finish some business with your daddy now, be a good little captive, Hiccup."

Hiccup continues to glare in anger and disgust as Dagur begins to shut the hidden door used to cover his prison.

Just before the boards completely over Dagur whispers "Happy Birthday Hiccup."

Happy Birthday indeed, Hiccup's captured and no one knows ... Or do they? ;)
