Okay, my THIRD update today, sorry for the wait. Shoutouts:

Jesusfreak: YES! I WILL DO IT AND PROBABLY POST IT LIKE, TODAY OR TOMORROW! :)

midnightsky0612: My thoughts exactly. Why can't Ruffnut just follow the simplest orders? :) Seriously though, why can't she?

Arcaane: You could write one about the first Snoggletog after the events of HTTYD2. I think it would be cool to see how it is. :) And yeah, I've noticed that sometimes. It's a pain, but at least it works, right? Kinda. :)

xFaerieValkyriex: LOL! Ruff and Tuff prevention? They should have like, a "Ruffnut and Tuffnut Prevention Week" on Berk. Actually, they probably already do. Hahaha!

Hiccup wished he had a sword.

He wished he had a lot of things, actually; reinforcements, a better chance, better weapon training, friends to fight with him, his left leg...a lot of things.

And there were also a lot of things he wished he didn't have; enemies, the fact he was outnumbered, amongst other things.

And there were also things he was thankful he did have; Toothless fighting beside him, and a weapon to fight with.

It could have been worse. He could have been alone without a weapon. But, it could have been better.

He parried with an Outcast as he approached. Hiccup ducked as the Outcast swung the weapon. Toothless whacked the Outcast away with a plasma blast.

"Thanks bud!" said Hiccup.

He came up against another Outcast. The soldier was about two times his height with a sword half that length. Hiccup fought him off with the dagger, but the soldier twisted his sword as he parried. Hiccup staggered backwards and fell on his side. He cried out in pain.

Great, he thought. Now I've dislocated my arm.

He stood up with effort and saw Toothless by his side, sniffing his arm and hissing at it.

"It's alright, bud," said Hiccup. "We have to get out of here, though."

"You're not going anywhere, boy!" shouted the voice of Alvin the Treacherous. "Neither of you are!"

The Outcast soldiers parted the way for their leader, creating a hall-way like path. Alvin walked down it, a sword swaying gently at his side.

"How do you do, Alvin?" said Hiccup. "Nice weather we're having."

"Don't try to talk your way out of this, Dragon Conqueror," said Alvin.

"Oh, what makes you think I would do that?" asked Hiccup.

"You're doing it right now," said Alvin.

"Oh, I am?" asked Hiccup. "Oops. Sorry about that. Bad habit. I remember this one time-"

"NEVER MIND!" said Alvin. He grinned mischievously and ran his fingers over the non-sharp part of his sword. "Why do you stall death?" he asked.

"Why not?" asked Hiccup. "Stalling death is one of my greatest talents! Kind of goes without saying. I remember this one time that there was this dragon-"

"My point is, Hiccup, you can only stall for so long," said Alvin.

"And my point is as long as I can stall, I will," said Hiccup. "And technically, right now, you're the one stalling my death." He nodded to the sword Alvin was holding. Alvin looked at the sword and then back at Hiccup.

"It could be easy, Hiccup," said Alvin.

"Are you seriously going there again?" asked Hiccup.

"All you have to do, is train my dragons," said Alvin. "Now, how hard could that be?"

"I choose not to answer," said Hiccup.

"Well, Hiccup," said Alvin, "tell me honestly. What have you got to lose?"

"Everything you've got to gain," said Hiccup.

"Good answer," said Alvin. "You're a smart boy, Hiccup, but I can't let you leave this island alive."

"And you're a smart, murderous barbarian, Alvin," said Hiccup. "You know I'll find a way."

At that, Alvin advanced. Hiccup tried to fight back with his dagger, but he was left-handed, and his left arm was currently dislocated; Alvin swung and easily flung the weapon out of Hiccup's hand. In another instant, the sword was at Hiccup's throat.

"We'll see about that," Alvin said. He broke out into a chuckle. Toothless growled, but before he could pounce, Outcasts came up behind him and pinned him down.

"It's okay, Toothless," said Hiccup. "I'll get you out soon."

"He's not going anywhere," said Alvin. "And neither are you, Dragon Conqueror." He laughed and pushed Hiccup forward, towards the Outcast prison. After they came to an empty sell, Alvin shoved Hiccup in.

"Put the dragon in there with 'em," said Alvin. "If Hiccup won't train a dragon, we'll kill his own."

Hiccup gasped. The Outcasts pulled Toothless in and shoved him inside the same cell with Hiccup.

"Enjoy your last night together," said Alvin, shutting the door and locking it. "Tomorrow, you either train, or you die."
