3. Superglue does not go there!

"HICCUP! HICCUP!" Snotlout was screaming as he frantically pounded on the front door of Hiccup and Astrid's house. "HICCUP!!! FOR THOR'S SAKE YOU GOT TO HELP ME!"

When Hiccup finally opened the door Snotlout's fist connected with his face as the other was still frantically knocking.

"Ouch!" Hiccup uttered as he rubbed his probably bruised nose. "Snotlout what the heck?" Hiccup muttered as his cousin held up his other hand, which was attached to some type of pink and white wand.

"You gotta help me with this," Snotlout said before demonstrating that said pink and white wand was stuck to his hand.

"What did you do?" Hiccup now groaned.

"You know how Astrid roped us all into a themed Halloween night, right,"

"Of course, she handed me my costume before going out with Ruffnut and Heather to get their hair done." Hiccup answered as he let Snotlout inside.

"Right, so well..... I was helping to make the scepters and then this happened!" Again Snotlout showed off his hand that was glued to the pink staff.

Hiccup made a face and then said "The Crown Earth sceptre looks good though,"

"Hiccup, I just spent ten minutes on a bus super glued to your wife's pink Sailor Moon sceptre! I LOOKED LIKE A MADMAN!" Snotlout waved his arms around for dramatic effect, nearly hitting Hiccup on the head with the sceptre.

"Okay, Okay! We still have time before the party." Hiccup said as he thought for a moment.

"Have you tried soap and water?" Hiccup asked as he inspected his cousin's hand. There was no way Snotlout would fit into his Luna costume like this, that was for sure.

Snotlout gave Hiccup an incredulous look before muttering "And ruin my work? Look at this! Just look at this!" He emphasized while pointing at the sceptre. "It's a to-scale replica made from clay, cardboard and glitter!"

"Then why weren't you careful?!" Hiccup groaned.

"I thought the glue was dry okay!!" Snotlout shot back. "What gave Astrid the idea to dress as Sailor Moon characters anyways?"

Hiccup said nothing but he was avoiding eye contact with Snotlout which caused the other to catch on. "It was you wasn't it?! YOU GAVE HER THE IDEA! OH MY THOR!"

"I just casually mentioned Anime cosplay one night while we were heading to bed!" Hiccup defended himself. "I didn't think she would plan a whole Sailor Moon theme!"

Snotlout shot him a dirty look before pointing at his stuck hand. "I have a pink Japanese Magical Girl sceptre stuck to my hand....." he grumbled as if to emphasize a point. "Right now I blame you for this whole idea."

"We could try petroleum jelly," Hiccup thought for a moment as Snotlout huffed. He went upstairs to get it, leaving Snotlout alone in the living room. It was then that the front door opened and three giggling women, already in costume, stepped inside.

"Snotlout, What are you doing here? I thought you were going to meet us at the party." Heather, dressed as Sailor Mars asked.

"Dude, that looks wicked!" Ruffnut, dressed as Sailor Venus, exclaimed once she laid eyes on the sceptre. "Can I see?" She reached for it and ended up tugging Snotlout's arm with her.

"Snotlout, I found Vaseline!" Hiccup yelled as he descended the stairs. He stopped on the last step of the stairs to see Astrid and the others already back.

"You guys already changed?"

"Yeah, we stopped by Ruff's place so Tuffnut could do our makeup," Astrid answered as she showed Hiccup her Sailor Moon costume with a twirl. She then gestured with her head towards Snotlout and asked "Should I help?"

"I was going to try the Vaseline on his hand..."

"Nope, no, won't work," Ruffnut interjected as she studied the area where the rod was stuck to the skin. "This baby's glued real good."

"Then what do you suggest Ruff?" Heather frowned.

"Well since Snotlout already has a wand we could dress him up as Chibiusa instead of Luna." Ruffnut stated while a wicked smirk graced her features.

"NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!" Snotlout shouted. "I am not wearing a pink pigtail wig!"

"Funny how he objects to the wig and not the Sailor outfit," Astrid raised a brow at Snotlout's outburst.

"How would we even get Snot into a sailor outfit Ruffnut? The wand is glued to his hand." Hiccup asked purely out of curiosity. The glare Snotlout shot his cousin was telling enough.

"Right... well there is always the other way." Ruffnut thought for a moment. "I happen to be a super glue specialist by now, given how many times Tuffnut has glued his hands together or to the floor and coffee table."

"You know what, I'm not even going to ask," Hiccup muttered.

"Astrid, do you have some nail polish remover? We could use that. The acetone in the remover should dissolve the bonds, that is... unless Snotlout here used Krazy glue, then the acetone won't react with the carbonyl groups of the cyanoacrylate, and well... he'll pretty much have to wait it out for a couple of days."

The room was quiet as everyone looked at Ruffnut in shock. "What?!" The blonde asked.

"We're not used to you... well.....," Heather mumbled.

"Did you guys forget that I'm a Chemistry teacher?" Ruffnut laughed. "Oh my Thor, you guys actually forgot! This is priceless! I need to tell Tuff,"

"I'm never going to live this down am I?" Snotlout groaned as Ruffnut snapped a quick picture with her phone.
