Back at the scene where he freed the Skrill Hiccup was thinking of what happened that day looking at the cut bolas Gobber's words running through his head "Dragon's will always go for the Kill, Always remember that" why did a Skrill the most feared and elite of Dragon-Kind in the archipelago spare him if dragons always go for the kill "So why didn't you?" he said to himself "Then again it did give me a scar I guess I got off easy, in a dragon version way of showing mercy" he added.

Hiccup remembered the way it flew off, it was really hurt from the fall he had more doubts he would ever kill dragons when Hiccup was close to the Skrill he wasn't filled with anger or fright but awe, he never been close to a majestic creature such as a Skrill, but it was barely functioning properly it was vulnerable "Well this is idea is crazy and stupid lets get prepared and go look for it" he stated.

Minutes later the young viking had fire starting stones and black powder, magnesium and a water canteen and lamb chops for a snack, he also had his dagger with him. Hiccup decided to follow the trail of disturbed vegetation he tracked for 3 miles, til he arrived at a rocky place with a cliff and a cave he saw the Skrill near the entrance.

Hiccup carefully walked towards the dragon, it opened it's eyes and got up with a snarl "I'm not here to harm you, you and I both know I'm useless against dragons and I wouldn't attack an injured dragon" he soothed, he got 4 feet from it and saw it didn't eat for yesterday and now, Dragons eat more than humans do it looked thinner than yesterday.

The viking and dragon made eye contact, Hiccup could tell it was scared just then it roared weakly looking to the side, Hiccup looked and approaching them were 4 boars "Great they sense your helpless and now they'er here, or they caught my scent and chose to follow me, so in this case it's both our fault" he told the Skrill, just then 3 more boars showed up.

Hiccup then had the twins and Snotlout voices and sneers in his head

"Hiccup the Useless screwing up again"

"You'll always make a mess"

"Everywhere you go disaster follows" Hiccup now heard Stoick's voice "Stick to Forging"

"You'll always be a helpless Viking creating messes for others to clean up"

The Boars drew closer making Hiccup freeze from fear, he then glanced at the Skrill who was just frightened and drew closer inside the cave, just then the courage that Hiccup got when he saved Heather earlier came springing to life again and his eyes closed and snapped open the once terrified eyes filled with panic were now steeled and determined "No I'm not useless and I don't care what you or anyone else says about me, I say take your discriminative words and stuff it!" He spoke with strength and grit.

Hiccup stepped back placing magnesium and black powder in his canteen ran to the Skrill after he squirted the flammable water in the boar's face making them recoil "Okay try to produce a little static flicker of lightning" he told it, The Skrill looked at him then the boars and with effort static was built up and crackle of lightning came off his wingclaw into Hiccup's canteen making it smoke where he chucked it at the boars.

'BAM!' rang as the canteen exploded into a puff of flames as the boars squealed as they were set on fire and fled "Okay they'll be back and with more" Hiccup said to himself, he then placed several lines of black powder and around the area he scooped some water from a vet of water in his basket after he emptied it, he then laid sticks and stones around in channels and placed water in them placing black powder and magnesium in them.

Just then the Skrill nudged him in the back with it's head with a firm nudge knocking him over on his hands and knees, Hiccup looked and twice as many boars arrived with the ones he scared off, all looked really mad particularly the ones with scorched fur and faces.

"One of these times I hate being right" Hiccup frowned he then placed a clump of dried grass on the ground and struck together the fire starting stones creating sparks that set the grass on fire and placed a stick in set it alight with flames and stood up with a determined expression and walked forward with courage and resolve lighting up his eyes "Back for more?" he challenged with strength in his voice.

"RAAGGHHH!" Hiccup yelled out with a scream of courage and ran at the boars waving his burning stick at them, Hiccup then jumped back dodging a boar and striking a black powder line setting on fire making the line blow up in flames and smacking it in the face with his stick, then he swiped his stick across more lines making the black powder explode into small streams of fire the boars ran forward and Hiccup moved to the channels when the entered them he threw the stick in them he ran forward as huge wall of fire blew away the boars sending them flying back he then threw his basket filled with black powder and Magnesium and water into the fire adding a more explosive effect to the mix the boars squealed in pain of being burnt and retreated.

Hiccup looked and saw 8 and there was 15 of them, then the last of them came at him Hiccup would've recoiled and freeze in fear and panic in the past but he remained with resolve flickering inside and braced himself with his dagger, then as the boars charged something shot in front of him, it was the Skrill!.

When Hiccup was facing the Boars The Skrill wanted to know why this one viking was so different rather than using brawn not like he could, he used his smarts, brain and creativity but before this viking froze but then his eyes snapped open they were steeled and brave and spoke loudly filled with resolve and courage pushed the boars back then the viking was setting flammable traps around the area it nudged it firmly to let the teen know they boars returned and with more but Hiccup remained undeterred and scared most of them away.

The Skrill then gathered his fading strength moved by the young viking's courage and grit hulled itself to it's feet and darted forward ramming it's head in the boar's chest knocking it back then smacked another with it's tail clamping its teeth on another's leg spun around smacking it into another boar letting go sending them flying back, A boar jumped on it's back bad idea because it just stabbed it'self in the legs on the unbent sharp metallic spines and Hiccup smacked it across the face with another burning stick the Skrill rammed it's shoulder into a boulder knocking it off.

The viking and Skrill stood next to the other the boars got up "RAGGGHHHH!/ROOOAARRRR!" the pair roared ran forward and the Boars squealed and ran away, the two waited then the Skrill fell exhausted "I'm going to get you out of here but first follow me quietly" he told it gently, the Skrill looked at him with a curious and calculating gaze but complied.


Hiccup then led it to The Cove "No one knows about this place but me, I come here when I want to be alone" he explained "Now be careful and glide down" he said the Skrill did just that but a bit clumsily it grunted annoyed which Hiccup picked up.

"No need to be ashamed you've been hurt, besides I'm the king of being clumsy" Hiccup told it, Hiccup then lit a fire and cooked the lamb and gave them to the Skrill "Here you need it more than i do at this point" he said gently.

The Skrill ate the lamb then Hiccup eyes were steely and determined again he stood up and it gazed at him "Since it Was my fault your in this predicament, I'll get you out of here" he said with resolution in his expression and words "Now I know I can hold my ground, I'll no longer take a step back" he said with grit

"don't force yer-self to be something yer not" Gobber's words rang through his head "Your right Gobber, I'll stop trying to be like everyone else and be me, but what else is there for me?" Hiccup agreed then questioned.
