Toothless smiled, placing the last couple of bolts on the robots' heads. Done! Both robots were now complete! Good thing too, he only had three months before the machine needed to be completed so he could get the voices out of his head! And on top of that, he had a sparring buddy too!
The sparring buddy had three main levels and about thirty less main ones. Easy, medium, and hard.
Easy was Haddock's style, medium was his and hard was every superhuman to have ever won their cape fightx2… hell yeah, this thing was awesome!
He had, however, decided to not keep it as a fighting buddy. As useful as it was, it was way more valuable to Baldy than it was to him, which was why he was going to give it to Baldy that night.

Hiccup dodged a punch thrown in by Astrid, only to receive three from Fishlegs.
"Come on, Hiccup," she hollered at him, throwing in another two punches to his gut and hearing him gasp in pain and fall to the floor.
He groaned and took the blindfold off.
They were practicing blind fighting. Wasn't fair, he thought, everyone else was using their element to guide them.
Snotlout sighed from his place as a spectator. He wanted to tell his cousin not to be a baby and to just use his element, but look at what had happened the last time?
Yes, Snotlout was probably the only person in their entire team who understood what it was like to have a dangerous element, after all, he and Hiccup were both very high up in the fire element.
There were, of course, several elements. Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Darkness, Light, Sound, Plants, etc. the highest for each of them varied. For fire it was electricity, for water it was tsunami, Earth's was earthquake, Air's was tornado, Darkness was Void, Light was sun, Sound was… well, Sound had no 'more powerful' aspect to it, but the higher the frequency and amplitude you could go, the more powerful you were considered, and Plants' was… again, same as air, everybody had at least the power to manipulate them, but then again some people had the power to hear what they said as well, and use them to heal and could seek them out.
There were others, like Animals, for example that were super rare, but not necessarily powerful. Your elemental aspect had nothing to do with your genetics, however your element had a chance of being influenced by them.
If you were twins, however, ninety percent of the time you were born with the same, and or complimenting powers, such as The Hideous Zippleback, as well as The Twins.
The Hideous Zippleback had complimenting powers, whilst the Twins had similar ones.
He sighed, Fishlegs was sweating, so he turned himself into metal, picked off the drops and turned himself back. No harm in some spare metal… note, his haircuts were always hell for the poor hairdresser, and cutting his nails was hell for his nailcutter… meh, he mostly just used his lasers to do both anyways.
It's OK, the Vikings never ran out of metal. Never. Seriously, even when they did Fishlegs would just chug down a gallon of water and spit it back up as metal… yes, there was probably some sanitation regulations about how they got metal, and yes they were definitely not following a single one, but that was OK, after all, who didn't love metal?
Hiccup grumbled, when his robotic arm was finished he wouldn't need any of this stuff, he'd be powerful enough to defeat Nightfury without it, there was just one teensy, tiny problem.
He needed Ii for it, and there was no possible way to retrieve Invilion without receiving a ton of attention.
He sighed, of course he'd need a villainous power source for it. The Super Periodic table mostly consisted of metals found in space, but some were found underground, in rare plants, under the ocean floor, in certain fish…
There were 122 elements total in it, and the one he needed was probably one of the most powerful, not very high on the reactivity series though, only like the twentieth most reactive, after Oxhengen, and probably Julesion.
He sighed, announcing he was done training and heading down to his lab. The hand was literally almost finished! Gah, fucking Ii!
.
Toothless was currently testing out the fight bot. He dodged a right hook, jumped out of a kick, rolled under it and landed a kick to the machine's legs, knocking it down.
Test 1. Easy, complete.
Test 2. Medium, fuck this was going to be a challenge.
.
Hiccup groaned, he didn't even give a damn anymore, like, fuck it, tbh. Who cared if he passed his exams or not? Worst case scenario he had to find some deadbeat job, and even then the Viking's would still be paying him a certain amount of money every month for all the bad guys he beat up! At the very least he'd be able to afford rent on a small apartment with a roommate, which he figured wouldn't completely suck!
Yeah… Superheroes didn't get paid much. Every League had a bunch of jobs that they did, for example, the Vikings were into the bond business, he knew that the Dragons were loan sharks and that they helped out a bit in the drug trade.
Nevertheless, both Leagues had tons of money, money that was used for all sorts of things, such as wages, and mining, and maintenance of lairs, etc.
Mining was carried out by supes in Superland, a small city where Super-people lived in harmony, regardless of class, a sort of… retirement area, if you will.
Hiccup snorted, OK, so maybe not in harmony, yes there was still a lot of, 'You filthy Villains,' and, 'You pathetic Heroes,' but it was still a pretty OK place.
It was no place to raise super-kids though. Everyone knew everyone, if your supervillain/hero found you, you weren't safe.
Hiccup sighed, he could never settle down there. It wasn't safe for him, heck, nothing was safe with him, he thought, heading back to his lab and donning a cloak, nothing was.

well, we know what he's doing, even if he is wasting precious revision time.
