Ch-15 We're Trapped!
Our hopes of going in the "Secret place" were ruined by the question which was asked by Tuffnut. We were thinking what to do when we saw a cave. 'Do you think it will lead us to the "Secret Place"?' asked Ruffnut. 'I don't know' replied Hiccup. 'It seems like the only thing we can do,' said Astrid. 'I guess,' replied Hiccup. 'We just have to keep hope that it will lead us to the "Secret place" said Fishlegs.
Ya, I know, it was a stupid decision but that was the only thing we could do! We went into it. We saw many horrible things there. A skeleton with a dagger stabbed into the place where its heart should have been and many things I don't want to discuss. We went inside and saw another nest of monstrous nightmares!
It was all sleeping. I whispered 'Don't make a sound, or we'll be lunch for a group of dragons!' We tip-toed further and when we saw that the nest was going to end, we were the most relieved people in the world! But Alas! Fishlegs had to trip and fall on one of the dragons as a result; the dragon started roaring and waked the other dragons.
'Run!' I shouted. We ran and ran with a group of dangerous fire-breathers following us! "Just what I wanted," I thought. A dragon came so close to me that I was like "Please save my life, god! Please save my life, god!" It tried to bite and took the bit of cloth on my hand. "Great! Fishlegs had to trip on a dragon!"
We went out of a narrow path which was not so big that a dragon could fit through it. 'We're saved!' cried Fishlegs and in turn was slapped by Astrid. 'You idiot! You could have killed us!' she said. 'Fishlegs, another thing is, if you shout like that then I think some Outcasts will hear us!' said Snotlout. We kept walking and went through a weird room in which I was tempted to go but Hiccup reminded me that we were on a rescue mission.
Then, after quite a short time we reached "The secret place" where I saw my friends. The room was filled with treasure chests and other chests having the Berk symbol. Some were kept above the other.
'I'm so glad you're alive!' said Thomas. 'Who are they?' asked Donald. 'They're my new friends who helped me save you' I replied. Suddenly someone leaped on top of me as a result, I fell down and kissed me in the cheeks and slapped me in the face. After it got off, I saw it was Anna. 'What'd you do that for?' I asked. 'The kisses were for seeing you after so long and the slaps were for worrying me so much' said Anna. 'Oooh, I think we got another Astrid' said Snotlout.
'So what adventure did you go through after coming here?' I asked. They recited the whole story. 'What about you?' asked Thomas. I recited my tale. 'You too have a dragon?' asked Ronald. 'Well, ya' I replied. 'Awesome!' said Ronald. 'Peter, is this the time for getting to know each other better?' asked Hiccup. 'Oh,' I replied quite forgetting that we were on a rescue mission.
'We'll talk when we get back to Berk. For now, let us just get out of this cursed place,' I said. Everyone agreed. We started to get up when suddenly, Alvin came inside and said, 'So, this Peter has come at last!'
We were awestruck. 'You must be wondering that how did come to that you were inside Outcast Island?' said Alvin, 'Well, I heard someone's voice crying "We're saved!"' We all looked at Fishlegs. Fishlegs face went the color of red. 'Oh, so you must be Peter,' said Alvin. 'I might, jerk!' I replied. 'You've got a big mouth! I would've shut it if I were you!' replied Alvin. 'But, you're not me, are you?' I replied. He just said 'Ok, you've asked for it! You're eating day will be after two days instead of three!' and shut the door and went off telling two of the Outcasts to be on guard.
'So, I think we're trapped here, till we get eaten by them after not three but two days!' said Alice. Again that thought made us want to cry. "There must be another way!" I thought. We just tried to keep talking so we would get our minds off it and the day ended.
