Hijack on the Orient Express (Belgrade to Venice)

PART ONE

As the train glided in Belgrade Station, one of its passenger secrets had risen like a cloud of steam. As Hiccup was in a state of panic, he wanted to leave as soon as possible. Faith must have been on his side when he realised that the train had stopped. “Sorry, but I would like to get a newspaper.” Hiccup just wanted to make an excuse. “Alright, but I won’t get off this train until Calais,” Elsa said as she was leaving the compartment. Hiccup grabbed his jacket and locked his compartment door.

As he steps down from the train he heard a paperboy saying “King’s son spotted in Istanbul, read the story here.” Hiccup had walked over to the boy and said: “Can I have a copy, please.”  The boy handed him copy when. “Mr Haddock is that you.” It was Nicholas, the Russian gentleman. Nicholas was walk up to him “I would like to about something.” Hiccup had enough drama on this train journey. Firstly he had that near-kidnapping in Sofia. Secondly, there was now a private detective now aboard, that knows his secret. Thirdly he started to growing feelings for Jack, his temporary neighbour. “I and your Scottish and English friends are having dinner tonight, so I was wondering if you would join us.” Hiccup simply said, “Two’s a couple, but three is a crowd.” The Russian laughed “What a funny phase, where did you hear such a thing.” “My grandmother, she was an Austrian.” Hiccup said, “Well enjoy the rest of your day.”

As the train left Belgrade, Hiccup was sitting in the Bar Car reading the Newspaper:

The Turkish Police have found evidence that the missing prince, Hamish Horrendous Haddock the III of the Isle of Berk. Stoick Haddock, The father and the King, said ‘That he would be travelling to Europe, and to hunt down the people who had taken his son.”

A couple of hours later, Hiccup was returning to his compartment to get dressed for dinner. Then he bumped into last person he ever on this train. Jack Overland. “Sorry… I was looking for you actually” Jack said, he looked nervous, like he was hiding something. “I was just wondering if you were free for dinner this evening.” Hiccup had no idea that how, one person could be forward, but something about that made him feel so excited. “Ok, we can see each other in, 45 minutes.” Hiccup replied by saying ‘Ok I will see you soon.’ As he closed the door to his compartment, Toothless was trying to get his attention. He looked down onto the floor saying to his pet, “Sorry I don’t have time to play, I have to get ready.” He got out his only clean black tuxedo jack; black bow tie; his dress shoes with his black socks and tuxedo trousers. He made sure his compartment door was looked to make sure he has no unexpected guests.

About after getting dressed. There was a knock on the door. “Wait a minute.” He then proceeded to unlock the door. Seeing Merida and Rapunzel in their (what they call) ‘Flapper Wear’. Merida says to Hiccup “You’re… DATE is in at the bar.” Hiccup’s face started to turn red and said “He’s not my date. I hardly know Jack.” “Oh whatever happened to Mr Overland?” Rapunzel replied. And then Hiccup started to cry. Then the girls said to each other. “Interfriendsion!” Then they went inside Hiccup’s compartment closing the door behind them.

They settled Hiccup, but he was crying even more. “I’m living a lie.” Hiccup cried out. “What make you say that Hiccup.” Repunzel said. “I have to let you something”. Merida started to sit down on a stool near the window. “Since we have known each other for some time now, and I feel like I can tell you to anything.” Then they both nodded their head in agreement. “I know that you have heard about the missing prince.” “What about the missing prince.” They both said with conceded looks. “For you I am…” Then the train started to break very hard with caused several items to move forward, Merida being one of them.

Once the train came to a complete stop they looked out the window. They saw train being surrounded by armed men and several men coming aboard the train and a woman. Then Hiccup said out loud in fear “He’s has finally catched up to me!” “Who?” Merida said. “My Father.”
