Losing control (Hiccup x Reader)

Chapter 10

"Wait, wait, waitwait...wait!" Snotlout holds his hands out in front of him "(y/n) is under some sort of control?"
"That's what I said!" Hiccup replies bitterly "Alvin has done something to her and Spear. Neither of them recognise me." He lowers his head "Alvin is using her, he's manipulated her mind to do whatever he commands...like what happened with Toothless....and dad."
Valka rests her hands on Hiccup's arms and rubs them comfortingly "what are we going to do?" Astrid asks "I...I don't know. I don't know how or what he used to control her." He replies, leaning into Valka, she looks down at him "was there anything noticeable different about either of them?"
"T-their eyes. They were purple. Like glowing."
Everyone goes silent "never heard of that." Fishlegs says, scratching his chin, Valka looks to Gothi who shakes her head, she sighs "I think the best way of undoing whatever this is, is to get (y/n) back and try to find a way." She says, Hiccup let's out a shaky breath and walks away.

"Poor boy." Eret sighs, Valka sits at the table next to him and looks over at her son who was sat on the sofa. Chin resting on his hands, he'd been sat there for almost two hours, completely silent "why do you think Alvin has (y/n) under a control?" Eret asks, Valka twiddles her fingers "i don't know, but part of me thinks that Hiccup does."
Eret stands up and goes over to sit in front of Hiccup, he doesn't move, eyes fixated on one spot on the floor "Hiccup?"

Nothing.

"What else happened? You know why Alvin has her don't you?" Hiccup's doesn't flinch. "Is there something you aren't telling us?"
Hiccup finally moves his eyes to look at him, still saying nothing.
"Come on man. You must know something! Is he using her as bait to lure the dragons?"
"Eret that's enough." Valka cuts in, sitting beside Hiccup "don't push him." Eret nods and stands up "son, look at me." She cups Hiccup's chin, gently turning his head to face her "we will figure this out and get her back and out of the control she and Spear are under." She says softy, Hiccup gulps, unsure about what to do.
He was torn, now Alvin had you under his control. He could use you and your ability to his advantage and that risked everyone finding out, but at the same time he knew he couldn't face Avlin and his men alone. He groans rubbing his eyes with the palm of his hands, then it clicks, he had an idea "we can't sit around and wait for Alvin to turn up. We need to go to him first. Toothless can help track where Spear is." He explains, Valka thinks for a moment "look, I need you guys to make me a promise. I'll deal with Alvin and get (y/n) back, just me. You run off his men." He says.
She nods, she wasn't sure why he was being so secretive but she trusted him.

Toothless sniffs the air, trying to get any trace of Spear "found anything, bud?" Hiccup asks. Toothless shakes his head "head over to where we last saw them and we will go from there." Toothless picks up his pace.
He quickly catches a scent and follows it. "I think he's got something!" Hiccup calls to the gang "Rodger that, chief!" Tuffnut replies with a salute.
They approach what looked like an abandoned area, Toothless signals to Hiccup who turns to the gang "alright, it's pretty late so they probably won't be expecting us. We need to be sneaky and efficient...and quiet." He stares at the twins as he says those last two words "can't count on that." Snotlout sniggers "hey, we can be quiet!" Ruffnut protests
"Ha! what a load of yak dung!"
"Guys, quiet!" Hiccup cuts in "you know the plan. Let's go."
They all and nearby, still on their dragons as they creep forward. A group of hunters were standing at the door, Astrid, Ruff and Tuff sneak round the side and wait behind some rocks.
Snotlout walks over with Hookfang and taps one of the men on the shoulder "good evening!" He beams before punching the man square in the nose, the other run over and Hookfang sets himself alight stopping them in their tracks "now, now gentleman. You wouldn't want my Hooky here to burn you all into dust would we?"
The men stand guard, holding their weapons up at them both, Astrid and The twins sneak up behind and slam their weapons around the men's heads knocking them all to the floor "huh, easy." Snotlout dusts his hands "celebrate later. Come
On!" Astrid says, grabbing his arm.
