Hi guys! Sorry for the long wait I'm just a bit busy with other books, but I'll try to get as much done today!!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------

The next morning, at the crack of dawn, a sickening crash on the bars on my cell woke me up.

"GET UP! It's yer trial."

Shouted Gobber. I stood up and stretched.

"You might wanna reconsider the beds in the cells. They're extremely hard."

Gobber just glared at me and slowly pulled me towards the door. 5 more burly Vikings walked in and got Toothless who was struggling against the bonds that held his mouth, tail and wings together. I started to get a bit worried, but nobody could see that because of my helmet.

30 minutes later, we arrived at the huge dragon training arena, the whole village piled on wooden seats around it, making it look slightly desolate.

I was walked to the middle before forced on my knees and toothless on the ground next to me. 

See the rows and rows of villagers with stony faces around me made me feel slightly claustrophobic.

"Stranger! You refuse to tell us who you are and your name, not even saying why you are friends with the beasts. Even worse, you mock us and expect us to not get mad!? We are Vikings. We are not stupid."

I snort loudly at the last sentence of the cheifs speech, making the rest of them gasp in horror! 

Stoick went bright red with anger, and stood up, getting closer to the bars, screaming,

"THIS IS THE BIGGEST OFFENCE POSSIBLE, BUT WE WILL HAVE MERCY, SO YOU SHALL BE WHIPPED THEN HAVE 2 WEEKS IN THE CELLS, THEN YOU SHALL BE BANISHED FROM THIS PLACE FOREVER!"

Everyone just whispered among themselves, saying, 

"How dare this stranger come here, then insult our chief!"

"He deserves to DIE!"

"Who is he...?"

At the sound of 'he deserves to die' made me shiver. I guess 2 weeks isn't that long... 1 year was longer but I guess Toothless won't be hurt this time.

I was dragged through the entry of the arena again and was brought to my cells again.

They brought me to a separate room off the prison, and pushed me on my knees, holding a whip in hand. I braced myself, ready for the impact. I heard a struggling growl as Toothless tried to get to me, but was stuck, locked in his cell.

-----------------------------

WARNING!! If you're squeamish then skip this part. It might get ugly XD

-----------------------------

I bit my lip as the first fist-clenching hit plunged into my back. I felt the first spot of blood drip down my back, and I grit my teeth. 

For the next 2 hours, I get whipped constantly. By the time I get out into my cell, I'm about to faint and my top is ripped at the back, the leather has completely worn out, blood dripping everywhere. 

When I walked out, Gobber looked at me sadly, while I gave him a death glare, taking him by surprise.

---------------------

Hey guys! Sorry for the bad ending... XD!

So I did this because everyone who does this kind of book does it so they find out who he is as soon as they see him, so I thought I'd give it a sort of twist.

C ya next time!
