Gobber tried and failed to open the cylindrical object.

"Have you ever seen anything like this Dragon Eye before?" Hiccup asked.

"Dragon Eye? How do you know it's called a Dragon Eye?" Tuff asked the question we all had.

"Because I named it." Hiccup said.

"Whoa, whoa. Aren't we supposed to vote on stuff like that?" Snotlout protested.

"Fine. All in favour, say 'Dragon Eye'" Hiccup said.

Everyone but Snotlout said "Dragon Eye!"

"Just wanted to make sure we voted." He muttered defensively.

"Can you open it, Gobber?" Astrid asked.

Gobber was still pulling like his life depended on it. "Can I open it?" I once opened a 500-year-old giant clam at the bottom of the ocean with my bare hook. Can I open it? Ha! I think it's going to be... Huh. Aha." All of the sudden, a dart shot out of Dragon Eye and hit Tuffnut in the chest.

"Ugh. What is that? That looks like a..."Tuffnutt slurred then passed out.

Ruffnut just laughed

"(Y/n), would you mind?" Hiccup asked.

"I'm on it," I said and went through the pouches on my saddle, pulling out some Flightmare gel and kneeling next to Tuff. I pulled out the dart and put the gel on puncture so it would stop any poison in its tracks.

"He'll be fine, most likely higher then Terror on Dragon-Root when he wakes up though. So pretty normal," I shrugged.

"Well, that was... something, maybe," Gobber said awkwardly.

"Gobber, maybe you shouldn't..." Hiccup tried to reason.

"Trust me. I'm... It's all right," As he said that, green gas sprayed out of Dragon Eye.

Tuffnut woke up. "I'm okay. I got hit with something, but now... *sniffs* No, scratch that." And he's out.

"Yeah, I'm thinking we should probably go get Gothi." Hiccup said and grabbed the Dragon Eye.

And we then went to Gothi, who shoved some medicine into Tuffnut's mouth.

"My teeth are itching. My teeth are itchy." Tuff woke up hacking and coughing.

Gobber translated Gothi's writing on the sand. "She says that's a good sign. Means it's working."

"Thank you, Gothi. We really appreciate this." Hiccup said.

Gobber continued fiddling with Dragon Eye and Gothi's eyes widened in shock as she pointed to a keyhole on the Dragon Eye. She then turned away, looking troubled.

Hiccup and I looked at each other and he spoke up.

"Gothi, are you okay? What is it?" He asked.

Gothi pointed to a scar on her arm and left.

"Gothi... Her... Her scar... it matches the keyhole." Hiccup gasped.

"Yeah, and it looked like a dragon bite to me." Fishlegs pointed out.

"Oh, it is," Gobber spoke up. "But she doesn't like to talk about it."

"She doesn't like to talk about anything." Fishlegs sweat-dropped.

"Or talk in general," I added.

"Oh, that's why she writes in the dirt with her stick," Tuff said in realization.
"I thought that was just, like, her thing."
