There was Fort Sinister, rapidly getting smaller as they rose away from it.
And there swinging from the bottom of the basket by his hook alone, was Alvin the Treacherous.
He made a savage swipe at Hiccup with his free arm, and Hiccup ducked quickly back into the safety of the basket.
"Right," said Hiccup. "I wouldn't put it past him to climb in from that position ... Everybody start running clockwise. Toothless, I want you to grab this rope and pull it in the same direction. We have to get this balloon spinning around ..."
All together, they began to run and the balloon began to spin, slowly at first and then with gathering speed, round and round and round like The Hopeful Puffin having one of her turns.
And as that balloon spun it slowly, slowly, slowly unscrewed the hook of Alvin the Treacherous.
He felt his hook loosening and realized what was happening, but there was nothing he could do. "I'll get you, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third!" cursed Alvin as the hook unscrewed as far as it would go. "I'll get you one daaaaaaaay!" and he plunged downward into the sea and a mass of waiting Sharkworms, leaving only a great, golden hook swinging from the bottom of the basket.
