The Adventurous (HTTYD Hiccup x Reader)

Snowy Secrets

"I'm not trying to kill Hiccup." Fishlegs defended, Ruff then walks up behind to trap him between the two.

"That's exactly what someone trying to kill Hiccup would say," Tuff exclaimed, at this point, the two were scaring Fishlegs.

"Indeed. We're keeping our eye on you, pal." Ruff told him, I walked over to Hiccup and look over at him to see he was just waiting for the Twins to be done with their antics.

"Our good eye." I heard Tuff finish and they walked away from him at last.

"So, what do we try next?" Fishlegs asked after the twins moved away from him.

"I think we have to go thinner. That should make it lighter and more flexible." Hiccup explained and I hummed in agreement with what he said.

"Definitely. The lighter and flexible it is, the better time Toothless will have flying." I explained and I heard Toothless agree with me in some way.

"But it won't make it Snotlout-proof. Nothing can. It's a good thing for you guys that I'm on your side." Snotlout explained, causing me to mentally facepalm at him. He was cut short, however, by Stormfly knocking him down.

"You are? Huh. Honestly, sometimes it's hard to tell." Astrid said to him with a smug face.

"Astrid!" I exclaimed happily, then frowned in confusion because it didn't make any sense on how she would be back from Berk already.

"You're back from Berk already?" I asked, she narrowed her eyes at Hiccup and me after I asked the question.

"Never made it there. I ran into Trader Johann along the way and he had some interesting news. Hiccup, Y/n, we need to talk." She stated, causing Hiccup and I to look at each other with curiosity and we all went up to the clubhouse to talk.

"Johann flagged me down on the way to Berk to tell me that he'd seen Ryker, Heather and the Dragon Hunters in the Northern Markets buying all the cold weather gear they could get their hands on," Astrid explained to us.

'Why but cold winter clothes in the summer-- The Snow Wraith!'

"Why would you buy winter gear in the summer?" Snotlout asked, not seeing the bigger picture.

"Hello! That's when you get the best prices." Ruff exclaimed out of nowhere, scaring me a little because of her sudden outburst.

"Ruff is an excellent shopper," Tuff stated proudly to Snotlout.

"Uh-huh."

"She actually got both our outfits, two for the price of one," Tuff explained and Snotlout rolled his eyes.

"No one's surprised by that." He told the two before we all turned back into the actual conversation at hand.

"Yeah, but they're not wrong." I heard Dracul mutter from my left.

"Where would the Dragon Hunters be going that would need heavy weather gear this time of year? Did Johann hear anything else?" Hiccup questioned Astrid and she looked up, trying to remember, for a split second before looking back at Hiccup.

"They needed the gear right away. And they were after something rare. A bone or a claw..." Astrid answered, trailing off at the end.

"Or maybe a tooth?" Hiccup said to himself, realizing they were after the Snow Wraith.

"They want to get to the Snow Wraith, to get one of its teeth," I answered, remembering what my dad told me about the Dragon Eye and its key when I was ten.
