Chapter 5

Let me save you?

Hiccup looked down at the unconscious for laying before him. The rosey red burns on her cheek and arm told him what had happened to her. The back draft carried her all the way out of the window. If it hadn't of been for the snow Rai would probably have died. Hiccup found himself praising the snow for once rather then mocking it. He was glad it was there for once.

"The burns will take time to heal Hiccup. She'll probably have a fever tonight and tomorrow, but these burns will heal…in time." The healer said and looked at her son. "Fishlegs go get more water!" She barked orders.

"Yes mother." He said and ran outside with a bowl to retrieve the water.

"Now boy…I need to ask you…who she is?" the healer asked. Hiccup smiled at the woman then his smile turned into a frown.

"Well…she's a goddess of lightning and Toothless' great great grandmother." He said and looked around as Toothless' ears perked up hearing his name. The woman didn't seem to amazed at this.

"Are you sure she's not lying boy?" She asked which got Toothless and Hiccup on the feet angry at the old woman's words. "No! She can't be lying! Because of her I can hear my dragon speak in my head." Hiccup yelled.

"I wouldn't go saying that out loud there Hiccup…people might think your crazy for hearing voices in your head." Fishlegs said as he walked back inside with the water. Toothless walked forward snarling at Fishlegs and his mother.

'How dare they say things like that about my Hiccup. I will smolder them! I will burn there lousy stinking skins to the floor!' Toothless growled gnashing his teeth.

"Easy Toothless. I don't like what they're saying anymore then you do." Hiccup said and looked down at Rai who moaned as the wet cloth was placed onto her head. Hiccup reached out and touched her cheek. He leaned in and put his forehead to hers.

"Hiccup…you can't save her by standing there. These burns aren't going to heal properly to put her back in fighting conditions. Her arm…probably won't work again. But she'll live." The healer said. Toothless roared at that knowledge.

"No…no she…is there a way? Any way? I'll do anything." Hiccup said looking around at Toothless who put his head on Hiccups shoulder.

"There's a medicine woman on the mountain…if you find her she'll probably have something that might help. No promises." The healer woman said waving them off. Toothless bounded toward the door as Hiccup leaned back down and put his forehead back onto Rai's forehead.

'We're leaving for a bit we'll come back.' Hiccup whispered to her.

'Don't go…' The weak response whispered into Hiccups head. Hiccup smiled kissing her forehead.

'We'll be the ones doing the saving for once.' Hiccup said and ran toward Toothless who ran through the village until they were away from the people where he could climb on and Toothless could fly toward the woman's hut.

"It would seem your boy is coming here." Loki told Alvin who was picking his teeth with a fish bone. Loki looked down into the steal bowl and smiled, a stark chuckle echoed into the room.

"Well…it looks like my jobs about to start isn't it?"

"Come little one…the closer you come, the sooner your doom will come." Loki chuckled and looked at Fury who tossed his head in his feverishness. "Alas I believe Fury may still feel the ghost wounds that are coming from his long forgotten wife."

"You sure its not going to hurt him when I kill this kid?"

"I don't think you should be worried about that Alvin, you should be worried about how your going to get that Night Fury away from the young Prince." Alvin nodded as much as he liked it the god of tricks was right.

"When that boy comes…his dragon is to big to come through the door…you'll ask him inside." Alvin said drinking deeply from his cup.

Hiccup steered Toothless down when he saw the little hut on the hill. Although instead of a terrible looking hut like Alvin saw, Hiccup saw a lovely home surrounded by pretty flowers, and a large willow tree shading the home from the harsh sun.

'Be safe brother.' Toothless said laying down sniffing the flowers and snorted the pollen back out.

"I'll be fine Toothless, seriously this is an old woman…what can she do?" Hiccup asked walking over to the house. "Hello? Is there anyone home? My names Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the third and I need help!" He called into the house.

"Come, come in young man. Tell me how I can help you." The old hag walked out of the door. Hiccup looked back around at Toothless who put his head down to snooze. Perhaps Hiccup was right, she was an old female human. Hiccup sat down on a stool in the corner.

"My friend was burned by a back draft is there any way I could help her?" Hiccup asked seeing Fury in the corner in a cot sleeping. Hiccup suddenly wondered if he had seen the man before. Surely not in his memory, but in Rai's…

'Fury…' Hiccup whispered.

' Run!' Suddenly a yell in his head echoed making him so dizzy that he nearly threw up as he stood up and ran toward the door. He reached out for the door knob but he found that he stooped mid stride.

"Going somewhere Princeling?" Alvins voice purred in Hiccups ears as a hand came up and clapped Hiccups mouth shut.

'Toothless help!' Hiccup yelled out as he felt a fist connect with his ribs causing him to spit out whatever air he had in his lungs. He tried to catch his breath, but all he saw was darkness.

Rai slowly sat up in bed winching as she did. Fishlegs pushed her back down. "Now you should be resting Rai. Hiccups gone to the medicine womans hut and he'll be back so…"

"He's been kidnapped…Alvin…" She panted the fever was worse. She wasn't sure she would make it if she hadn't of heard a familiar roar outside the door.

'I'm coming…' Rai pushed Fishlegs away and slowly got out of the bed. She didn't even have her boots on much less a jacket when she walked out the door and over to a white dragon. "We must ride fast Ariya."

'Mother you are injured.' The female whispered to her mother, her voice ever gentle to the woman.

"I know little one, but if we do not leave now your brothers may die."

Authors Notes: Who wants some sibling rivalry! Ariya and Toothless aren't going to get along and Hiccups gonna be smack in the middle of it hehe.
