Alright, let's give chapter 2 a try! For those of you who don't know, I changed Chapter 1 up a bit. See if you like it better!

Theresaw2010: Honestly, I don't think Alvin cares about what Hiccup looks like as long as he gets what he wants out of him, but your idea is a great idea and I'll put it into the next chapter! :) The only reason he didn't act like you said is because Mildew had already told him who the Dragon Conqueror was.

LookingUp: Here's your update! Thanks for reviewing! (and cliffhangers are my specialty! ;) )

Gir240: Good idea. I tweaked Chapter 1 up a little bit. Read and tell me what you think!

imaginationflies: How will it turn out? You're about to find out!

Thanks to all my viewers! Feel free to tell my if there's something that you'd like to be changed. I'm open to all ideas! Now, without further ado, Chapter 2! (Hey, that rhymes! XD)

Chapter Two

"Expected him to be a bit bigger than this," Alvin said with a malicious grin. "Doesn't matter, though." Hiccup had no idea what he should do. If he ran, he would probably get caught. His prosthetic leg would trip him. He could yell for help, but it was highly unlikely anyone would hear him, this far away from the village. The only other option was to try and fight (yea right) all the Outcasts, or obey them. He didn't like the sound of any of those options, so he just picked the first thing that had come to his mind: running.

Without another word, Hiccup turned and bolted for the thick leaves. He got a head start, since it took the Outcasts a moment to establish what had just happened. He could hear Mildew and Alvin's yells of "After him!" in the distance. If he got to the village, Mildew would be punished too.

Lost in the chase, Hiccup didn't notice the high-growing roots at his feet. His prosthetic foot caught on one and he fell to the ground.

"You've got to be kidding me," he mumbled. He quickly pushed himself up, but before he had time to run, a hard fist slammed into the side of his head, knocking him back down. Hiccup called for help as loud as he could, but cut off short when he found himself up against a tree with a hard pressure on his neck. Hiccup started to panic; he couldn't breathe!

"You'll feel the consequences for that later," muttered Alvin darkly. The pressure on Hiccup's neck suddenly disappeared.

Now if you want to stay in one piece, come with me." Hiccup, exhausted from his run and the blows, had no choice but to obey. An Outcast grabbed his shoulder and kept a firm hold on him, all the same. There was a flash of yellow in the woods and Hiccup turned his head to see what it was. He was able to regain his composure before the Outcast steering him saw his reaction, however.

Hiccup's heart leapt when he saw Fishlegs's head pop up from among the bushes. Their eyes locked, and Fishlegs mouthed something. He ran off stealthily, but not before Hiccup had caught one word: father. Fishlegs was going to get his father! There was still hope! After a few minutes of walking,(Hiccup couldn't believe he had run that far!) they were back at the boats. Come on, Fishlegs!

"Stop," Alvin suddenly commanded. All the Outcasts (and Hiccup) stopped instantly. "Did you hear that?" Everyone fell quiet and started to listen, and soon Hiccup heard it. Heavy footsteps could be heard, shaking the ground. Whatever it was,(and Hiccup had an idea) it was big and it was coming fast.

"Lets go," Alvin yelled at his men, and before he knew it, Hiccup was being rushed up onto the Outcasts' ship. He began to struggle, but in the condition he was in, it did no good. He was on Outcast property, now.

"Put it in him," the lead Outcast commanded. Hiccup was roughly pushed onto the floor, finding two Outcasts holding him down. Another plunged a needle into his arm, and most of the world was lost in pain and screaming. (Hiccup later suspected that it was his.) The last thing he saw before he lost consciousness was the huge, dark body of Toothless bounding out of the forest.

~Page Break~

Stoik burst through the trees only to find Toothless on the beach, roaring his head off. He stared in shock. 'I'm too late,' was all he could think. 'I'm too late.' Toothless kept jumping into the water, but whenever he had to swim, his fake tail dragged him down. The dragon growled in frustration that he had no way to get to his rider.

The blonde boy that had alerted Stoik of Hiccup's predicament earlier came out of the thick green brush, panting. With one look at his chief's face, the boy knew what had happened. Too late.

Out of nowhere, the great Stoik the Vast broke down and started sobbing. Fishlegs just stared at him in terror. What would happen to Berk if the chief of the island couldn't keep his composure? He decided not to tell anyone. As long as they didn't ask him if Stoik had started sobbing in the middle of nowhere, it wouldn't be lying, right?

Fishlegs turned toward the forest and began to walk slowly, dreading that he would be the one to tell Berk what had happened.

~Page Break~

Hiccup woke to find himself in a small, dark room. It took him a while to remember what had happened, then to realize his wrists were shackled to the wall. He squeezed his eyes shut, telling himself not to cry; he would not cry. The tears came out anyway.

After a while, he started hallucinating. He saw his Mom, his Dad, Toothless, Astrid, Fishlegs, Snotlout, Ruffnut, Tuffnut, Mildew... Mildew! That name smacked him back into reality. He could feel the anger building up inside of him. He hoped that they would find out, hoped that old man would get what he deserved. After observing the cell he was in a little closer, he could clearly smell the scent of fresh blood, not in it, but around it.

"Oh, Odin," he murmured to himself, "What have I gotten myself into?"
