And the last chapter for the day. I'll be writing more today and hopefully the internet will be connected back to my laptop so I can update tonight or tomorrow. Anyway, don't forget to review.

The next morning, everyone got up and started work just like any other day. Everyone except two slaves. The twins ran off to the far end of the island where Hiccup figured Alvin would dock his ship. He was right. On the shore of the island was a ship with the Outcast crest on the mast. The twins pounded fists before sneaking over to the ship and climbing up the side of it. Three of the men were standing guard but were doing a very poor job of it. One was picking wax out of his ear while another was staring up at the clouds. The third one was nearly falling asleep leaning against a barrel.

The twins looked at one another and nodded. One jumped down and ran to the other side of the ship. He climbed up and peeked over the ships wall to where he could see his brother. They nodded again before one let out a soft whistle that sounded like a bird tweeting.

"What was that?" The Viking staring at the clouds said looking to the other two men.

"What was what?" The one picking at his ear asked.

"That sound."

"What sound." He asked.

"Shut up you idiot." The man said growing irritated with the man. A scratching sound then caught the man's attention. The Viking picking at his ear stopped and listened. A finger still stuck in his ear.

"What was that?" He asked. The cloud gazer looked over at the man and rolled his eyes.

"Maybe if you got your finger out of your ear you would know." He said.

"I heard scratching."

"Maybe it was your finger scratching that shriveled up peanut in your head that used to be a brain." He said in annoyance. The twins held back snickers.

"Oi! Who are you calling an idiot?!" He shouted as he stepped up to the man.

"The only numb skull on this ship, pea brain." The man said.

"Why I aught a-" He said before pulling out his axe and swinging at the man. The other man pulled his out and blocked the swing before the two when into a full out axe fight. The Viking who was falling asleep jumped awake at the sound of clashing metal. Once he saw his crew mates fighting, he jumped up and ran at them with his axe in hand. He tried to break them up but they both swung at him. He looked shocked before anger filled him and he joined in the fight.

The twins giggled out of earshot at how idiotic the men were. Suddenly they heard loud footsteps coming up from below deck. A large man with a black, frizzy beard stomped up on deck.

"WHAT IN THORS NAME IS GOING ON UP HERE!" He shouted. The three men seized their fighting and stood straight facing the man.

"S-sorry Alvin. We uhh. We were practicing our fighting in case of an attack." The cloud gazing man said.

"Oh fighting practice eh?" Alvin asked as he walked up to the men. "Good, good. But, have you three ever thought that we're on an island, owned by a man AND HIS WIFE! WE WON"T BE ATTACKED! WE'RE THE ONES ATTACKING YOU MUTTONHEADS!" He shouted. The men shrunk back in fear as Alvin screamed in their faces.

"S-sorry Alvin. I-it won't happen again." The man stuttered. Alvin glared at the men for a moment before turning around.

"All crew above deck!" He shouted. All of the men on the ship ran up to the deck. The twins were quick to count them all.

"Now listen up." Alvin said. The twins stayed out of sight as they listened in. "Stoick's little runt is here on this island. Where he is we're not sure. But when the sun sets tonight, we go out and search the island for them. If any of you find the Dragon Conqueror, bring him back to the ship alive. Any one hiding him or protecting him, kill em. I'll have that boy one way or another and no one is gonna stop me this time." Alvin said.

The twins eyes went wide in shock and fear. They silently climbed down the ship and ran to the forest were they hid and slowly made their way back to the main part of the island. Maldrigard was just coming out of his house so the twins had time to tell Hiccup what they found out.

The two ran to the orchards and found Hiccup and Fin in an Apple tree. Fin was on the ground while Hiccup was in the tree.

"Hiccup! Hiccup!" They shouted as they reached the tree.

"Guys! What did you find. How many men are on the ship?" Hiccup asked as he climbed down to the lowest branch.

"There's about twenty men. But we heard something else." One said.

"What is it?" Hiccup asked.

"Alvin's plan. He said when the sun sets he's sending all of his men out to search the island for, who they called, Stoick's little runt. He called him the Dragon Conqueror and that if anyone is hiding him, Alvin's men will kill them and take the Dragon Conqueror back to his island." The other said. Hiccup's eyes went wide.

"What do we do now, Hiccup?" The two asked at the same time.

"Go find Mudgut and tell him to get that telegram to Maldrigard. We need to get him alone first and then worry about the Outcasts."

"But wouldn't it be better if we had more people to fight to Outcasts?" Fin asked.

"We're not gonna fight, remember? We're gonna trick them all." Hiccup told him. "Now, you two. Go to the docks and count how many row boats are there. Come back and tell me when you're done." Hiccup said. The two nodded and ran off to find Mudgut.
