Ragnar was standing outside the base looking up at the stars and even though he can't see them anymore he could feel them shining down on top of him.
"Fancy meeting you here," said Astrid's voice. Astrid approached Ragnar and joined him. "You know you can't see them don't you?"
"I know," said Ragnar. "But I can sense their presence even more vividly than ever before. Hiccup managed to accomplish a great thing eliminating the Sith Lords and proving that the Emperor is not invincible."
"We still have that Pureblood Sith to worry about," Astrid reminded.
"It may not be a total victory, but neither was it a total defeat and we must take all the good news we can even if some of it is bad," said Ragnar folding his arms behind his back.
Astrid began hugging herself as she looked up at the stars. "I can't believe he's gone."
"It is hard to believe," Ragnar agreed.
"No, I really mean that I can't believe that he is gone," said Astrid shaking her head. "I've got this feeling that he is still alive out there somewhere, but maybe it's just me hoping that he is not gone."
"Astrid, I agree with you," said Ragnar.
Astrid immediately turned towards him. "What?"
"I have known Hiccup a long time to know that he's far too stubborn to die and I would have sensed his passing," said Ragnar. "Besides our reports say that the Emperor survived as well, though wounded. There's a strong chance that Hiccup survived."
"Then should we head back to Korriban?"
Ragnar shook his head. "No, I get the feeling that he's not there anymore and that he is still in danger."
"If the First Order had him they would have informed the entire galaxy before killing him," Astrid frowned.
"I know, this indicates that someone is involved and I'm determined to find out," said Ragnar.
Astrid looked at him and stared at the bandages he was still wearing. "But what about your eyes?"
"I don't need my eyes, I just need the Force," said Ragnar calmly. "Just informed me if you hear word of Heather."
"You be the first to know to know," Astrid promised.
"And can you do me a favour," Ragnar added. "Keep a good eye on Gustav, I fear that he has taken Hiccup's pretty hard and I think its best that we don't informed him that there's a chance that Hiccup survived until we have proof."
"You have my word," Astrid promised.
In the ruins of the Sith Temple Hiccup laid their completely motionless and unable to move a single muscle. He then saw someone approaching him and adversity believe that it was Gustav, but then coming into view his saviour turned out to be an enemy.
"It would be so easy to kill you right now," said Boba Fett pointing a blaster at Hiccup. Then to his surprise he loaded it. "But I have something more perfect in mind and it will be able to get me credits at the same time."
Hiccup could only watch as Boba Fett removed him from the rubble and he began to wonder what sort of punishment he had in mind.
