第六章：巫婆Excellinor有点生气了(5)
A witch that walked on all fours like an animal. The witch Excellinor, Alvin the Treacherous’s mother. Her poisoned iron fingernails scraping on the flagging, made that rat-scratch of a sound. She stopped dead in front of Hiccup. And then slowly, like an automaton, she turned her head. And stared… right into Hiccup’s eyes.
6. THE WITCH EXCELLINOR IS A LITTLE ANNOYED OH FOR THOR’S SAKE. Hiccup’s heart melted within his chest as the witch’s hollow eyes looked straight at him. She was like a living skeleton, a shock of hair streaming out behind her, all human kindness dead within her. Twenty years of living in the darkness of a tree trunk had bleached all the light out of her, and she was whiter than a slug, and meaner than a snake, and bowled into a hoop by the prison of the trunk. They were caught red-handed. She had been tearing up the Wilderwest in her hunt for this very same boy for the past six months.

The witch sniffed once, twice. ‘Dragons…’ she hissed in horror. ‘Dragons…’ She looked straight at him, and barked like a dog. But the witch was so blind she could barely see a foot in front of her nose. She did not see them. At that distance she could only sense movement. Don’t move, Toothless, thought Hiccup, teeth gritted in terror. Don’t move…
