Another chapter! Now we get some more of Hicca's adventures in the capitol. And some more sibling interactions. Anyway enjoy.
Chapter 13: Becoming a trooper
(The next day)
Just outside the capitol walls, Draconia, late morning, 266 ADF
Hiccup, Hicca and Valentine had just arrived at a structure outside the city walls that looked like a natural stone ring. Hiccup had explained that this was one of the natural meeting points for dragons and humans. It was one of the places where riders could bond, and they were well protected.
After dinner last night Hiccup gave her a brief explanation of what they were going to do. He told her that they would be staying for about a week before returning to Berk, in that time he would take the responsibility of giving her the most basic training before she could enter a training camp after they returned. Afterwards she spend the entire evening with Maery or Mae as she now also called her. Talking about basically everything, Hicca's early life on Berk, what she did during a normal day, Hiccup's early life, though mostly the embarrassing stories. And of course Mae's relationship with Valentine and in the end the hinted attraction to Astrid by Hiccup otherwise. When Mae teased Hiccup about it the whole palace could hear him shout Hicca's name and subsequently hear him chase her around the palace halls. Which resulted in the sibling's very first play-fight.
Afterwards the siblings and Valentine, who offered to come along to observe, left for the meeting point. When they arrived they saw several guard troopers with blue markings protecting the entrance. The group of three was allowed to enter without questions asked however. Guess Hiccup and the emperor did some preparations.
They walked inside what looked to be a stone carved hallway which looked to lead in a wide open space.
"So Hicca you must not be afraid when you enter remember?" Hiccup reminded.
"I know, I'm just a bit nervous." Hicca said.
"There's no need to be nervous, you will do great." Valentine encouraged.
They came out of the tunnel and stepped into an open area surrounded by natural stone walls. The entire place was like a green oasis with dozens of dragons flying or running around. Hicca could see a small pack of raptors running around, she saw the dragons she knew from home. Nadders, Nightmares, Gronkles, a few Zipplebacks and many more. She could also identify a few other species Hiccup and Mae had told her about. A Hobblegrunt was sleeping on one of the stone pillars and she thought to see a faint glimpse of a Changewing at the far side of the oasis.
"Uh… what do I do now?" Hicca asked timidly.
"You go and look for a dragon that chooses you." Hiccup said. Motioning her to step further into the oasis.
Hicca swallowed, she was still a little bit nervous about the whole situation. She looked back to her brother and Valentine with their respective dragons. They both gave her a thumbs up for encouragement.
Hicca looked back forward, took a deep breath and signed. She could do this. Then she stepped further into the oasis.
Some dragons started to notice the newcomer and eyed her curiously. As time passed and Hicca stepped further out into the open more and more dragons were poking their heads out to look at her.
Hicca felt the many eyes on her and although Hiccup and Valentine had assured her that she would be safe she couldn't feel but worried. She grew up in a village that killed dragons after all. But then one of the more curious dragons came closer.
It was one of the raptors from the pack she had seen running around when she entered. And Hiccup's description of them was very spot on, they were indeed three meters tall with sharp talons on their back legs and short arms. It got closer and sniffed Hicca cautiously. But otherwise made no aggressive moves at all. And this was an untrained dragon in the wild.
Hicca let the big, scaled creature come closer and inspect her. It had made no aggressive moves whatsoever, even when she moved around to take a better look it just kept calm. 'Guess all dragons are just misunderstood.' Hicca thought. From this moment on all images of dragons being monsters just… vanished from her mind. And she looked at the dragon with more confidence and a genuine smile.
"Hey there big guy, how are you doing?" Hicca said.
The raptor tilted its head and looked at her with dilated eyes but made no moves. Other dragons now began to come closer. Several touched down nearby to come take a look.
Hicca extended her hand to the raptor in hopes of making a bond. But the dragon itched away and shook his head. They were not meant to be. The raptor then moved away from a slightly dejected Hicca.
'Guess he wasn't the one. Farewell majestic creature, may you find your rider soon." Hicca thought. Then she turned to the other approaching dragons with new hope.
Hiccup and Valentine watched from the side, having witnessed her interaction with the raptor. "It's almost never the first one." Valentine said.
"Patience, she still has a lot of chances." Hiccup said.
"Or she could turn up empty handed." Valentine said. "That happens a lot too. You know only about fifteen to twenty percent of the Imperial military are dragon riders."
"We can only hope Valentine." Hiccup said, though he really hoped Hicca would bond today.
Time went on and multiple dragons came to inspect Hicca. The process was repeated over and over again, but it always lead to the same rejection. A couple of hours later and no dragon had yet bonded with the girl, all of them just flew or walked away. By this time there were no dragons left around her and Hicca was left standing alone on the ridge looking at the oasis dejected.
Hiccup had come to her and laid a hand on her shoulder as a comfort. "It's alright sis." Hiccup signed. "Maybe some things just aren't meant to be."
"I know, but I really hoped I would find one for myself today." Hicca said.
They were about to walk away when they heard a growl coming from a nearby stack of rocks. Something was behind it looking at them. They turned around to see the black and purple body of… a Skrill.
Hicca was very surprised to see such a rare dragon in front of her. A wild on at that.
Hiccup released Hicca's shoulder and took a step back. If this was the one she had to do this alone.
Hicca stayed rooted at the ground when her brother released her. She took a glimpse backwards to see Hiccup gesturing to her to go to it. She looked back forward and took a step towards the lightning-based dragon.
The Skrill stalked towards her eying her every move. It made a full circle around her before coming to a halt about 1,5 metres directly in front of her.
Hicca and the Skrill looked each other deep in the eyes. For some reason she felt some kind of connection with the creature. Something she hadn't felt with the other dragons.
'This is it…' Hicca thought.
Hicca closed her eyes, turned her head away and extended her palm. She didn't know why but she felt she needed to look away, as if to place her full trust in the dragon before her.
A few seconds passed, they felt like hours however. Until she felt something warm and scaly press against her palm giving her a light shock, but the good kind. She opened her eyes and looked at the Skrill who had closed the gap and was resting its nose against her palm. Its eyes were fully dilated and she felt like she could look into the creature's very soul.
"Congratulations Hicca, you found your bonded dragon." Hiccup said with a smile. He was really relieved. "You should think of a name for him."
"Her… it's a she. Don't ask me how…I just…know." Hicca said.
Hiccup smiled. He knew the feeling, most dragon riders experienced things like this. "Do you have a name for her?"
Hicca didn't look up, she was too busy petting and scratching her new companion. She seemed to love this and snuggled closer to Hicca. Hicca however did have a name ready.
"Elysia… I'm going to name her Elysia. What do you think girl?" Hicca asked.
The dragon now known as Elysia nodded ecstatically and gave Hicca a big lick.
"Yuck… does this stuff wash out?" Hicca asked. Hiccup was chuckling at the sight and in the background Valentine was laughing his ass off.
"Hmm…I don't think so sis. You got to get used to it, like I did so many years ago." Hiccup said remembering his first encounter with Toothless. He looked back at the offending dragon to see a smug smile on the dragon's face.
Hiccup looked back to Hicca to see her looking at him with Elysia having stuck her head under Hicca's arm.
"So…, what do I do now?" Hicca asked.
Hiccup chuckled. "You play with her. Strengthen your bond together so you can trust each other with your lives when the time comes. I advise playing tag."
Hicca smiled and looked at Elysia to see if she wanted to play. She got her answer when Elysia tapped her lightly with her wing and flew a little distance, she wiggled her scaly body as a challenge to chase her.
"Oh. You're on!" Hicca laughed. She then gave chase to the black and purple dragon laughing all the way.
"So, a Skrill huh." Valentine said.
"Well, it's something different. They'll make a good pair." Hiccup said proudly.
"She'll be needing a saddle." Valentine said.
"Yes, and a specialised set of armour. To divert the lightning away. I'll take care of that.
The group stayed in the oasis for a while so Hicca could form a stronger bond with Elysia. Afterwards they made plans to leave for the capitol again.
"Hicca, you are going to have to ride with me and Toothless, since you haven't had any riders training yet and riding bareback is really uncomfortable for both you and Elysia." Hiccup said.
"Oh… but I do get to ride her soon right?" Hicca asked hopefully.
Hiccup chuckled. "Yes Hicca, you can soon. Now hop on." He said while mounting Toothless.
Hicca nodded and jumped into Toothless' saddle in front of her brother. Then they took off towards the capitol with Valentine and his sand-wraith beside and Elysia following behind them. It didn't take the group long to arrive back at the palace since all three dragons were reasonably fast. Hicca still found the experience exhilarating.
Imperial palace, afternoon, 266 ADF
They soon landed on the palace balcony where Mae came running towards them. "And did you find one?" She asked Hicca while she was dismounting Toothless.
Hicca just smiled, put two fingers in her mouth and whistled. Almost instantly Elysia came barrelling out of the sky and landed behind Hicca.
Mae looked with wide eyes. "A Skrill! Awesome girl!" Mae shouted enthusiastically.
"She really is, I named her Elysia. Say hi to my friend Mae girl." Hicca said.
Mae giggled when she was pushed by Elysia's nose. The big lightning dragon didn't seem so scary now.
"And make sure the armour has lightning diverging cables." Hiccup said to Valentine who sped off again on his sand-wraith.
"What was that about?" Hicca asked.
"Oh I just asked Valentine if he could get some things for you. Namely a saddle for Elysia and a cadet uniform for you." Hiccup said.
"Oh so that's why you needed my clothing size." Hicca deduced.
"Indeed." Hiccup said. "Now... ready for some dragon riding basics?"
"Alright!" Hicca cheered.
For the next few hours Hiccup instructed Hicca in the basics of dragon training. They did some exercises with Elysia to practice taking off and landing since a real flight wasn't possible yet. Hicca was an eager learner and sucked up all the information her brother gave her. By the end of the session Hicca had a pretty good idea how to fly.
A few hours had passed during this training and meanwhile Valentine had returned with a sleek black saddle with lightning diverging spikes and a few pouches and a large duffel bag.
It took the two siblings and Valentine a while to fit the saddle onto Elysia, mainly because she led them on another playful chase. Afterwards when the saddle was fitted and safely secured their attention went to Hicca and the duffel bag.
"So, what's in the bag?" Hicca asked.
Hiccup chuckled, opened the bag and pulled out a plain white helmet like Valentine's without any markings. It was also size for a smaller person. "Hicca, I believe this is yours." Hiccup said when he gave the helmet to his sister.
"Remember, when wearing that helmet. You wear the Draconian banner and all of us proudly with you." Valentine said.
"Woah…" Hicca gasped when she felt the helmet in her hands. Her helmet.
"Here, take the bag and go change. Everything could be in there." Hiccup said while giving her the duffel bag.
Hicca nodded and disappeared from the balcony for some time. She most likely went to Mae to help her undress and donned in her new Draconian cadet armour. It was about half an hour later when Mae appeared in the doorway.
"Gentlemen, may I introduce… Cadet Hicca Haddock." Mae announced while gesturing to someone outside their field of view.
Hicca stepped out onto the balcony, completely donned in her cadet armour. It was a fully white version of the standard trooper armour Valentine and by lesser extend Hiccup wore. The only colorations on the armour were the black edges of her white Kama and the Draconian insignia in her shoulder pads. The helmet she held under her arm.
"It looks good on you sis." Hiccup said observing his sister.
"Thanks, wearing the helmet is still a bit weird though. I tried it for a bit inside but I took it off so I wouldn't bump into walls." Hicca said.
"Well, there are no walls here." Valentine joked.
"Just put it on. You'll need to get used to it." Hiccup said.
To this Hicca put on the helmet and locked it in place just like Mae had shown her. She rolled her head on her shoulders to see how much she could move and found the body glove to be quite flexible. "Hmm, it isn't restrictive." She said. She then gave a few experimental knocks on different places of the armour. "Sturdy as well."
"It's supposed to be Hicca. Now, ready for a first flight?" Hiccup asked.
"Really?!" Hicca asked hopefully.
"Yes really." Hiccup said smiling. He then put on his helmet and moved towards Toothless. "Come on! Let's go!"
Hicca was ecstatic and al but shot to Elysia who was equally exited to go on their first shared flight. Hicca mounted her companion and Elysia spread her wings and gave a powerful burst propelling them into the air. The pair glided into the Draconian air free from any restrictions. Right now Hicca felt free like never before.
Hiccup and Valentine came flying next to her, the tree of them were gliding high over the city. They were flying higher and higher, around and over the towers. Next to other wings of dragons and Draconian airships flying in and out of the city. Valentine decided to do some stunt and had his dragon Scorch do all kinds of spins and barrel rolls around the two siblings. Hicca laughed and was amazed at the things he could do.
When Valentine levelled out and joined flight formation again it was Hiccup's turn to do something crazy. Hicca noticed he clicked his feet out of Toothless' saddle and began to stand up straight on Toothless' back. He balanced himself perfectly and looked at her, but what he did next amazed her even more. He began walking towards her on Toothless' wing. When he was on the edge he jumped over on Elysia's wings and walked over to her, gave her a light tap on the helmet and walked further over to Valentine and Scorch. He did the same jump trick he did when moving from Toothless to Elysia. Very soon he was standing on Scorch behind Valentine and underneath her helmet Hicca was gaping. The two friends bumped their fists and Hiccup moved to the far side of Scorch's wing. Before Hicca could say anything Hiccup reached the end and slipped off.
She was about to yell when suddenly Hiccup came rising up again. Toothless had flown around and caught him when he went of Scorch wing, just as planned. It had been an awesome display of skill.
They soon returned to the palace after flying around a bit more. When they landed Hicca dismounted Elysia and rushed to Hiccup.
"Okay, that was crazy! And insanely cool! Could you teach me that?" Hicca asked excited.
"All in due time sis, all in due time." Hiccup chuckled.
"Yay!" Hicca cheered.
Both Valentine and Hiccup laughed at the young girl's enthusiasm.
"Now, I'd love to stay longer but I really need to leave." Valentine said.
Hicca stopped hopping around for a moment and looked at her brother's human best friend. "Where are you going?" She asked.
"I'm needed back with my legion, there's still a war to be won." Valentine said.
"So you're shipping out again?" Hicca asked.
"Yep, we all have our duties. Now Hicca, I don't know when we'll be seeing each other again. So train hard so we may meet side by side on the frontline again." Valentine encouraged.
Hicca nodded vigorously. "I will! Good luck sir." She said while giving Valentine a salute.
Valentine returned the salute with a light chuckle. Then Hiccup laid a hand on Valentine's shoulder.
"Good luck out there man, come back alive." Hiccup said.
"No promises man…" Valentine joked.
Hiccup chuckled lightly. "You know…Mae is still somewhere in the palace. Maybe you should go say goodbye…" He suggested.
"Uh…yeah…I think I'll do that." Valentine stuttered.
Both Haddock siblings chuckled at Valentine's behaviour when he retreated into the palace. Scorch followed close behind.
"So, what's next?" Hicca asked.
"Now? Well before we return to Berk there are a few things that need to be done. We will use that time to give you some training here. I'll be taking charge." Hiccup said.
"Alright! So when do we begin?" Hicca asked.
"Right now." Hiccup said firmly. "We'll begin with basic exercises. Let's go for a few laps around the palace. On foot…"
Hicca gulped. This was going to be a long week.
(Six days later)
Capitol military complex, afternoon, 266 ADF
Indeed the week had been rough for Hicca. Hiccup might be an awesome brother, he was one hell of a strict drill instructor. On the first day she had run around the entire perimeter of the palace at least ten times. Afterwards she had been instructed in some basic unarmed combat forms and had gotten her as kicked by Hiccup.
In the days that followed she did more laps, push-ups and sit-ups than she could count. Hiccup said it was to improve her stamina and prepare her for what was to come. They also did some combat training with weapons, however she wasn't allowed to carry any of them with her yet.
It still took some time for her to properly hold a weapon since she only recently discovered that she had to carry her weapons left handed. The resulting effect were many training swords flying out of her hand and embedding themselves somewhere in the ground or wall. Though Hiccup showed an immense amount of patience with training her. Hicca honestly thought he would go insane with all her clumsiness, but he just kept going and didn't stop until he was satisfied with her progress for the day.
One of the things she was good at however was aiming. The first time she got a Draconian crossbow in her hands she was marvelled by its inner workings. A crossbow that was quickly to load, had two shots to fire and most of all was very powerful got her attention. The first few tries were horribly off mark, though when she was adjusted to the bow's size and knockback her aim improved with each shot. Being able to hit her target dead centre from a long distance by the end. Though reloading was still difficult as it required the user to have some arm strength to prime the cables.
Hiccup wasn't always around to train her however, sometimes he was gone for a few hours to arrange for their return to Berk. At least that's what he told her. He was being very mysterious about the conditions they would be travelling in, always avoiding the question. Anyways when he wasn't around she was further trained by members of the Imperial royal guard, also known as the first legion. They had her do basic exercises the kind Hiccup had done with her.
During all this training Elysia was definitely not forgotten. Both were instructed in dragon calls and hand signals that could help them out in the field. She was taught how to be a better rider as well as how to fight better and more efficiently alongside her dragon. One of the important lessons was not to rely on strength alone in a fight. They instructed her to actively analyse her opponent and find his weaknesses. They called it fighting smart. Hiccup told her this was exactly what he did when fighting Snotlout back on Berk. She also learned to be agile in a fight, to dodge a blow was always better than to block it. It also came handy to outmanoeuvre your opponent.
Though training wasn't the only thing she did during the week. When she was finally relieved from her training and drill-sergeant Hiccup she spent some actual quality time with her brother and Mae. Forming a very sisterly bond with the latter over the course of days. Together she had her first actual girls-only time. Gossiping was fun, and the main target was of course… Hiccup.
When he could even the emperor would make time for the youngest Haddock. Teaching her about Draconian politics and the known world. She could spend hours in the vast palace library reading books about all kinds of things or places. Or just stare for hours at the maps printed on the tables in the various war-rooms.
In truth she could always find something to do in the palace.
Though eventually all good things need to come to an end. At the end of the week Hiccup informed her that they would be leaving very soon. Just before Hicca had said goodbye to Mae and the royal family. She did however promise to come back soon. Afterwards she had packed the little possessions she had, donned in her armour and flew on Elysia alongside Hiccup towards one of the training centres. Right now they were walking along the catwalks in the building seemingly going to some sort of balcony outside.
"So, we're leaving for Berk?" Hicca asked.
"Indeed, though I have a feeling arriving there won't be a smooth ride." Hiccup stated.
"How so? It's because of our dragons isn't it?" Hicca asked.
"For some part it is. But you need to remember I made a rather dramatic exit last time I was there, and some villagers already found me suspicious." Hiccup said.
"But once we explain what happened…" Hicca began.
"I fear it might not be that simple Hicca, you know this entire coup was set up by our own uncle. I knew of his plan because I did my fair share of espionage in the village. The day before you were kidnapped I witnessed a meeting in which I learned he wanted to use me as a scapegoat. He planned to pin the blame on me, and I am quite certain he made work of that." Hiccup explained.
"In other words the whole village will by now see you as an enemy." Hicca deduced sadly.
"Indeed, and by extend everyone wearing the Draconian insignia. Since during the raid I wore my trooper armour and they all know my affiliation to the empire. Well, they know I'm from here." Hiccup said, chuckling when he said that last part.
"Yes, 'All Hail Marshall-commander Hiccup Haddock! Leader of the Third legion and slayer of giant queen dragons!'" Hicca bellowed laughing.
"Ugh, I hate it when people do that. You know I'm still having nightmares about that day." Hiccup signed.
"Oops… sorry…" Hicca apologised.
"It doesn't matter sis, I can take a joke." Hiccup laughed.
"Heh, right. Anyway, how are we going to convince the village to listen to what we have to say? Since we both are wearing Draconian gear and there's only two of us?" Hicca asked.
Hiccup chuckled. "Hicca, do you know why I sometime couldn't train you?" Hiccup asked.
"You said it was because you needed to arrange for our return." Hicca said.
"And I did. I knew Berk and mostly Stoick wouldn't listen to us if we didn't have some… let's say… force of persuasion." Hiccup said.
"Force of persuasion?!" Hicca asked.
By now they had reached the exit to one of the balconies that looked out over the landing deck.
"I arranged a little escort for the trip." Hiccup said as they reached the edge of the balcony.
Now Hicca could see what her brother was talking about. On the landing deck were three Bastion-class transports lined up and a lot of soldiers were standing were waiting outside them for their turn to enter. It took Hicca a second to connect the dots, but soon she realised that this was their escort. The entire Third legion was about to be shipped to Berk. Hiccup's legion was going with them.
The troops marched inside the airships in long lines of two, there were still some raptors on the ground patrolling, though the rest of the dragons were already loaded up.
"You're taking your legion with you?" Hicca asked since all the troops she could see were wearing the same type of armour Hiccup was wearing.
"A little back-up never hurts. And it will make them listen." Hiccup said.
"So…we're kind of invading Berk." Hicca said while looking at the hundreds of troops who were soon going to be standing on her home island.
"Eh…Invading isn't really the right word. Call it a personal guard for a very important person." Hiccup said while looking at Hicca.
"We're going to scare the life out of them though." Hicca said slightly smug.
"That we will. And we will teach Spitelout not to mess with the Haddocks nor Draconia." Hiccup said.
"Time to ruin uncle Jorgenson's plan." Hicca said.
"On that we can agree. Ready to go cadet?" Hiccup asked.
"Sir, yes sir!" Hicca said while mockingly saluting.
"Let's go then." Hiccup said.
They both mounted their respective dragons and flew down from the balcony onto the landing pad. There they send their dragons to board the command-ship via the back hangar, while they themselves went up the boarding ramp along the rest of the troops. Hiccup had offered her to stay in the captain's cabin but Hicca refused saying that she was no more important than the rest of the troops. Hiccup did feel a little proud of her. She ended up bunking with a few other female troopers a bit older than her.
Later both sibling were standing on the command-ship's bridge waiting for launch. They were still waiting for the all clear message from docking control.
"So, we'll be back on Berk in about a week?" Hicca asked.
"Yes, so it will be three weeks after you got abducted." Hiccup answered.
"But are you sure we'll be on time to stop Spitelout?" Hicca asked.
"I have no doubt. Uncle Spitelout in in for one hell of a surprise." Hiccup said with a grin.
Just then a message terror flew in carrying a small note. Hiccup the note from the terror and gave it a light scratch. Then he read the note.
"Alright, we're cleared for departure." Hiccup said. "Attention! Clear the deck, close all hatches! Start the engines!" He ordered.
"Affirmative." The pilot nearby said.
A few moments later they could hear the engines start and the turbines come up to speed. The ramp was retracted and the landing legs were unlocked.
"Pilot, take us up and set a course north. We're going to Berk." Hiccup ordered.
"Aye aye sir." The pilot answered.
About fifteen minutes later all three ships were flying north out of the city in a V-formation. Hicca soon retreated to her bunk. Hiccup had promised her he would continue her training during the trip and that they would start in the morning. For the moment she was free to rest and mingle with the rest of the troops. She should do that.
After all, they would be her brothers and sisters in battle soon. And they would stand with her on Berk within a week.
End of chapter 13. We've been given some more insight in the inner workings of the empire and the Haddock siblings are officially on their way back to Berk. Next chapter will be their arrival and the inevitable confrontation with their "uncle". Now I have a question for you guys, when the time comes and Spitelout needs to be trailed, what should I do with him? When I first developed the story I didn't really decide what to do with him. In the reviews I've heard the term 'Blood eagle' drop several times. Let me know what you think. Also, how long should Hiccup and Hicca stay on Berk? I was thinking at least one night, but I can maybe prolong this to two or maaaybe three. Let me know as well.
Reviews:
orca3553: I think this chapter answers your question. She will be notifying them of her choice and many more things.
Grima: in the next chapter there is going to be an explanation of what happened on Berk when they were away. But they didn't go to Draconia. One, because they can't find it without a map (Hiccup had the only one) ant two, the trip would take too long and certain people would push back against the idea.
AkaDeca: no, I'm not kidding you. I'm very serious. Lol
Ghost Dragon Master: your theory makes a lot of sense actually. I've decided to incorporate this into the plot. Thank you for the feedback. And the Hicca reveal and the other things, I have my ways. Don't worry.
Thearizona: indeed, but someone will be very surprised when Hicca turns up again with an entire army backing her up.
Maerk Andrew: great idea, I made sure to do that. In the beginning I was planning to send only one ship, but in retrospect that doesn't make much sense to leave a large part of the legion behind. So what the heck, just bring them all. And the joint prosecution of Spitelout was a good idea as well, I'll find a way to incorporate this. Thanks!
5: nah, overkill is fun. And it's something different, it mixes things up a bit. Also, welcome back sergeant. I'm glad to have you back! Side note: the bazooka hasn't been invented yet.
ArthurShade: yeah I know, story clichés. Sin on me.
JHawkins: yes, they are indeed worried. But they are on their way back. Also Hicca is indeed very dangerous for Spitelout when she returns, and Hiccup even more. Certainly with the documents he has with him.
mc arno: thank you. I really appreciate the support you're giving. Until next time.
Anyways I hope you all enjoyed. I've been ( my name should show up here but I recently noticed it sometimes doesn't. likely a bug)
Dismissed
