How You Doing Insane Gang!
Another one-shot from my many plans, most of these new ones will take place during Racing to the Edge.
Hiccup and Astrid are 17 or 18 (Don't exactly know how old they are in Race to the Edge.)
Disclaimer: I don't own HTTYD or Race to the Edge.
Hiccup groaned as he was punched in the stomach by Dagur.
While on a mission from the Dragon Eye to find another dragon Dagur intercepted him and brought him and Toothless down. The latter was currently being held in a cage muzzled. The other had his hands tied behind the mast of the ship.
"Where is the Dragon Eye brother." Dagur exclaimed once again.
Hiccup cracked a tired smile.
"Once again I told you I don't have it or is your thick skull blocking you from understanding?"
Dagur popped him in the mouth flooding his senses with the metallic taste of blood.
Hiccup spit blood on Dagur's boots.
Dagur kicked Hiccup with the same boot in the gut.
"Okay I kind of deserved that one." He wheezed out clutching his stomach.
"Hiccup, brother, why won't you make this easy for yourself."
"You don't faze me Dagur, do what ever you want, I'm used to it." Hiccup snorted.
"To bad what if I say that I have one of your friends." Dagur cackled while leisurely walking in front of him.
Hiccup raised his eyebrows.
"Oh yeah and who would that be?"
"The beautiful and feisty one, what was her name...oh Astrid, thats it."
Hiccup's body stiffened and his eyes widened.
Dagur smirked and glanced at him from the side.
"Haha looks like I found your week spot!" Dagur exclaimed in glee.
"Who knew Hiccup that you would be such a heartbreaker."
"Good news for you though I don't actually have her in my possession but I am pretty sure Savage would love to go fetch her for me."
"Don't touch her." Hiccup growled.
"Oh did I struck a cord?" Dagur asked innocently.
Hiccup narrowed his eyes.
Dagur snapped his fingers and Savage was by his side.
"Savage why don't you pick up Astrid for me?"
Savage nodded enthusiastically. "Right away sir."
Just then a spike buried itself right in-between Savages feet.
"Looks like you don't have to look very far."
A Deadly Nadder squawked.
"Astrid?!" Hiccup exclaimed.
Astrid jumped off Stormfly as she hovered above the ship.
Without anyone seeing as she jumped she threw a well aimed throwing knife at the mast near Hiccup's side.
When Astrid landed she unsheathed her axe from her back.
Dagur glared at her but then smiled.
"Ah Astrid so glad you could join us on this lovely interrogation."
"Let Hiccup go."
Dagur sucked in a breath. "See I can't do that, not until I get the Dragon Eye."
Astrid twirled her axe. "Yeah thats not happening."
"Astrid what are you doing here?" Hiccup asked.
Astrid turned her head to see Hiccup for the first time, her eyes widened in surprise at his bruised and bloody appearence but then hardened.
Hiccup had blood running down his chin coming from his mouth and his cheek is bruised and swelling. He was also sure he broke a rib or two.
"What do you think I'm here for?" "I'm saving your reckless ass, again."
"Where are the others or did you foolishly come alone?" Dagur prompted.
Astrid didn't answer him but instead told Stormfly to rip open the cage containing Toothless.
"No!" "You imbeciles kill that dragon!" Dagur yelled at his men as he unsheathed his own sword.
Dagur charged at Astrid which she parried it with her axe.
Hiccup looked worriedly at the battle before him.
If anything happened to Astrid I'd...no, I have to focus on getting out of here! Hiccup thought as he carefully pulled out the small throwing knife to try to cut the bindings off his wrists.
Astrid summersaulted away from the on coming attack.
"Come on, come on." Hiccup muttered under his breath as he was almost through his bindings.
Stormfly pulled away Toothless's muzzle with her beak and now Toothless with Stormfly was actively taking down the rest of Dagur's men.
Hiccup saw the concealed weapon first even though he was the farthest away.
He grabbed a rope and swung himself across the ship and slide directly in front of Astrid.
Dagur didn't have anytime to delay his movement as he whipped out his conceal dagger and plunged it into Hiccup's right shoulder.
Astrid shocked at Hiccup taking the dagger was able to flip Dagur over board in his shock also.
Hiccup let out a short yelp and crumpled onto his knees using his left hand to hold his injuries shoulder as blood poured out of the wound.
Dagur's dagger wasn't that small at all and the fact that he was able to conceal it is impressive. The dagger measured 6 inches long.
Toothless and Stormfly finished off the last of the men and hurried to their riders sides.
"Hiccup!" Astrid exclaimed as she fell to her knees beside him.
Hiccup sucked in a gasp of pain and squeezed his eyes shut.
"You're such an idiot..." Astrid breathed out as she tried to force back her tears.
"Thanks for reminding me." Hiccup muttered.
Astrid took both of her hands and cupped them around Hiccup's jaw.
She wiped away the blood running down his chin with her thumb.
Hiccup gave her a tired smile.
"Think you can make it back on Toothless?"
"Yeah but set his tail on solo glide incase I don't."
Astrid got up and pulled down the lever for Toothless's tail to expand. She then helped Hiccup into Toothless.
They rushed back to the Edge as fast as they can.
"Fishlegs!" Astrid called out once they reached the clubhouse.
Astrid had a hold of Hiccup's side as he pressed a hand against his still flowing wound.
The rest of the gang gathered around to see what is going on.
"What did you guys do?!" Snotlout exclaimed.
"Hiccup was taken by Dagur, he took a dagger for me." Astrid breathed out.
"Snotlout find Fishlegs and tell him to come to Hiccup's house immediately."
Snotlout nodded his head and took off on Hookfang.
Astrid helped Hiccup into his house with Toothless worriedly behind them.
Fishlegs busted through the door about a minute later with supplies.
Hiccup was starting to see black spots from all the blood loss.
"Odin, that is a big knife." Fishlegs commented.
"Yeah, I know just get it out of him." Astrid pleaded while brushing one stray tear from her cheek.
Fishlegs cut away his tunic so it exposed his shoulder.
"Okay Hiccup this is going to hurt a lot, Astrid hand me that solution and bandages right after I take it out of him."
"1...2...3!"
Fishlegs yanked out the dagger and threw it across the room with Hiccup giving a shout.
Astrid hurriedly gave Fishlegs the items to stop the bleeding.
He poured the solution on a cloth to press on the wound to slow down the blood.
Hiccup hissed out a curse as he squeezed his eyes shut against the pain.
"Almost done Hiccup, just got to stitch it up." Fishlegs soothed him.
Once Fishlegs was done he gathered his supplies but left the bandages in Astrid's care.
"Thanks Fishlegs." Hiccup sighed as he opened his eyes again.
Fishlegs gave him a small smile and left.
Once Fishlegs left Astrid exploded on him.
"Why would you do that?!"
Hiccup flinched at her tone as he carefully took off his armor and the rest of his tunic.
"Which part?" "Leave to go find a dragon or taking a dagger to the shoulder?"
Astrid crossed her arms and sighed trying to calm down.
"If you weren't hurt right now I would so punch you."
"Thats comforting."
Astrid sighed loudly and sat behind Hiccup to begin wrapping him up.
"You did not have to do that for me." Astrid said softly.
"You know heat of the moment thing..."
Hiccup turned his head to see Astrid's face.
"But really I can't imagine anything happening to you."
Astrid finished wrapping up his whole torso and his right shoulder.
She then gently hugged him from behind.
Astrid kissed his left shoulder blade before laying her head down on it.
Hiccup laced both of his hands into hers.
"Thank you." Astrid breathed out softly.
A small smile graced Hiccup's lips.
"Anytime."
