72Ok, this is it… I think this is gonna be the next to last chapter. I am so excited, but so nervous at the same time. I hope you guys like this, I know some people are gonna hate what I am doing but I can live with that. This story has gone exactly as I wanted it to go. I hope you guys continue to follow me, and I am planning on starting a new story after I finish this chapter. I will be writing the last chapter as I begin a new story, no idea what it's called yet but it's going to be a Rise of the Guardians one.
Disclaimer : I do not won How to Train Your Dragon.
Astrid walked into the hall shortly after Stoick left, her movements seem mechanical though Hiccup does not notice.
"Astrid… Help…" Hiccup moaned, looking at her pleadingly. His right eye and the right side of his face was beginning to swell and turn purple. The young woman walked up to him and smashed a sprite swaddled fist into his chest, sending him flying into the wall.
"You're a traitor. I only pretended to care so that your dragon wouldn't eat me. I hate you, your father hates you, and your tribe hates you. Just give up…" She turns to walk away,
"Your father is ashamed that you were ever born… I heard him say that your mother would be ashamed of you too… Just so you know… you need to be gone before they get back or they are going to kill you. I'm only warning you for what could have been…" She walked out of the hall, leaving behind a stunned and broken young man.
Hiccup lay there for several minutes before getting up and making his way out of the hall. As he walks through the village, people glare at him, some even throw rocks. The young man walks as fast as his injured body can take him towards the woods.
"This is my only chance… they may hate me… but I will never be a murderer." Hiccup mutters as he makes his way to Tiandras cove. Once he gets there he walks up to her tree and gently lays his hand on it. The blood crawls up his arm, penetrating his skin as it goes. Out of the thick substance sprites slowly form and begin to circle him. The ooze crawls to his wounds and begin to knit them together.
"I am your master…" He says through gritted teeth, slowly pulling his hand away as the sprites land on him. For just a moment his eyes flash Black and his voice turns feral as he growls, the sprites seap into his skin, for just a moment an image overlays his own. We see a creature with glowing black eyes, horn, and shaggy hair wearing Hiccups cloths.
The Vikings all reel back in horror at the image. Hiccup stairs at the screen, as if in shock. He hasn't moved sense his father first hit him, his eyes glazed over as he silently took in what had happened.
"Why don't I remember this?" He asks, his voice void of emotion. He looks at Zyenna, her eyes are watered.
"T… They locked it away… I'm sorry Hiccup, but you have to understand. You were dead… Odin himself couldn't coax you awake… You no longer responded to Toothless… We… They… They had no choice… You won't ever remember this as your own… We made sure of that…" She spoke with an honest, unapologetic tone that angered Hiccup. He stood up and got in her face.
"What right do you have to take my memories?" He hissed, his eyes flash black for just a moment, the in a flash Zyenna slaps him, sending him to the floor..
"We have every right… You would be comatose if they hadn't done that… You couldn't handle what had happened to you. You are made of a special kind of steel, but ALL metals have their breaking point…" Zyenna helps him up and sits him down, before sitting herself. The two sat in silence, watching the movie continue.
Then with a growl Hiccup pulls himself back together and he grabs the black liquid running into him and yanks it out with his temporary enhanced strength.
"I have to do this alone… that's what she said…" He says, tears rolling down his cheek as he steps away from the tree. The sprites try to follow him but he growls threateningly at them and then he turn and runs. We see him sneaking through the village back into the arena. The place is deserted, which is exactly what Hiccup wants. Strapped to his back are a pair of chain cutters and to his left side is a sword.
"Nothing to lose now…" He seems to remind himself, then he opens the Nightmares cage. The dragon slowly slinks out, its hide is covered in scratches from both Toothless and the sprites. It hisses at him, Hiccup growls back, his eyes flashing black for a moment causing him to shake his head. The Nightmare looks at him as he slowly raises his hand, turning his face away from the dragon. The Nightmare looks at him in confusion, it's pupils dilating as it slowly sniffs his hand before putting its snout in his hand. Hiccup chuckles as he turns and scratches the dragon affectionately.
"You have to take me to the island girl… My dragon is there and I have to save him…" The dragon growls a warning to him, as if trying to talk him out of going.
"I will die either way… I won't take anyone but that beast with me…" Hiccup says with a finality, the dragon shakes her head and leans down to lets him climb on. He pats her softly on the side of her neck, before the dragon can take off black tentacles burst form the ground and wrap around her.
"Mistress…" Hiccup says softly, his back straight as he gazes at the daemoness unflinchingly. Tiandra growled at him, she shoots black tentacles at him as if to spear him. Hiccup gazes at her unflinchingly as the tentacles spear his shoulders. Around the intrusions other tentacles burst from his skin, leaving angry wounds that heal slowly behind them.
"You're going to fail you foolish boy." She says harshly. Hiccup stares at her for a few minutes then smiles softly.
"Then at least I'll die trying." He says softly, smiling slightly. Tiandra just growls at him and retracts the tentacles. The Monstrous Nightmare whimpers softly, its eyes downcast as it stands unsteadily. Hiccup softly pats the Nightmare on the side as she takes off, leaving a fuming Tiandra behind.
Hiccup sagged against the neck of the Nightmare as they few away, tears slowly began to fall down his face as what he was going to do hit him for the first time. He leaned over and looked at his village as he flew over it.
'This is it…' He closed his eyes and smiled as the island slowly disappeared behind him.
Ok, I know I said this was gonna be the last chapter, but I have hit a major case of writers block. So I decided to break this up into more than one chapter, because this seemed to be a good place to end it. I am drowning in homework cause of college so I will try to work on the last chapter but I can't guarantee that I will be able to get it out before summer gets here.
a random person: I know, I had to do it though because it fit my story. I have no idea how the rest of it is gonna differ from the rest of the movie. Like I have said I am stuck right now.
DragonTrainerBoss: Yes… yes he has… Lol
ladipretender: I know I have been more violent but when you interject daemons things get violent. I did, just not completely. I would really appreciate some ideas if you have any.
Death Fury: I couldn't get to the battle scene in this chapter. I hope to add extra twists but I am just a bit out of steam because I'm just so busy all the time.
