someone like me?"

"People with our intellect are few these days. Together, you and I could go many places." He came closer and you looked up at him, thinking about his words. You only wanted Dagur to pay, you didn't want to turn on your friends. 

"No. I won't. What I want is something you don't care about." You refused. 

"Very well, but, just to let you know," He suddenly grabbed you and pinned your hands behind your back, holding a knife to your throat from behind. "You can do anything with my help, but there is nothing you can do to stop me." You swallowed hard, scared. He let you go and you were stunned. "As I said, I'm nothing if not a good sport. You may go and find your precious Hiccup. It does not matter. This game is already finished." He walked off and you were shocked. At that moment, you didn't care that he'd gone. 

"Come on, girl, we have to find Hiccup. Now."

You looked for him, but you couldn't find him. You regrouped with the others. They were confused when you came back alone.

"Where's Hiccup?" Arrow asked.

"I don't know!" You called back.

"Let's check the tunnels!" Fishlegs offered. You nodded and you all hurried off. Suddenly, Hiccup and Toothless rushed out of one of the tunnels.

"Guys, out of the way!"

"What? We just got here." Ruff called. The Flightmare suddenly came out behind him.

"This isn't a very fun reunion!" Tuff exclaimed. You all flew out of the way, trying to avoid its mist. Snotlout and the twins were down soon enough."

"We need to get this thing out of here, back on its food trail." Hiccup said. Then, somebody new came out of nowhere.

"Heather!" Arrow called happily. 

"Don't hurt it, girl. We just need to scare it off." She helped you scare it away and then Hiccup turned back to all of you.

"Let's sweep the tunnels! Come on!" He called.

"Hiccup, there's no way he's still down there. You know Viggo had this whole thing figured out from start to finish. He's long gone by now." Arrow told him. Hiccup growled before screaming out, angrier then you'd ever seen him. You knew not to bother him. He needed time. You went to help the others, but then you all realized something.

"Where's Heather?" Hiccup asked. Arrow shook his head. Heather was gone.

"He got the Dragon Eye, didn't he?" Arrow asked and Hiccup hung his head. "We'll get it back, Hiccup. Besides, he has no Snow Wraith key. Without that, it's useless." 

"And he knows that. So, why did he want it so badly?" Hiccup wondered. Meanwhile, you couldn't get what he said out of your head. "People with our intellect are few these days. You, my dear, are of great value to me." You shivered slightly. What did he even mean by that? Why am I...different? You looked over at Hiccup. If he knew Viggo wanted me to join him, he'd flip out. You kept your mouth shut that day. He can't know about this. Not ever. I can't have him doubting me. I just can't.
