It had been a week now. A week since the tragic day of which, Stoick the Vast, Hiccup's father and chief passed away saving Hiccup. But saving Hiccup from whom? And the sad answer to that was his best friend and dragon, Toothless.

It wasn't that Toothless wanted to harm either of them, no. He loved them both dearly; they were his family after all. But he was under influence of a mind control by the alpha dragon. And the alpha dragon was under the control of Drago Bludvist. Drago was a mad man who sought war with the dragon riders of Berk and the rest of the world. So naturally, he took control of all the dragons he could. Toothless was one of them who fell to the strong persuasions of the alpha dragon.

But Toothless can still remember the look on Hiccup's face as his father lay there dead, how much he cried and all the hate in his eyes and voice when Hiccup told the dragon to leave. How he yelled at him for killing his father. It still haunted Toothless, even now as he looked into the pool of the grotto.

The Night Fury just stared at his reflection in shame. His acid green eyes appeared like little orbs in the water. He studied the reflection, his ears, his horns, his eyes, and every scar his body held.

He knew it wasn't his fault. He knew it wasn't. The rest of Berk knew that it wasn't his fault either and Hiccup forgave him immediately and wasn't mad. But that didn't mean that Toothless didn't have any hard feelings towards himself. Under the influence or not, he did it. And that's what haunted his mind. He felt so much heart ache at times when something or someone would remind Hiccup of his father and he would fall into a somber silence. He most certainly missed him, and Toothless knew it.

He was utterly clueless to why he hadn't gotten himself a new dragon by now. Hiccup assured him constantly that he wasn't mad and that it wasn't his fault in the least, but Toothless was never sure. Every now and then he thought he saw Hiccup eying up other dragons he'd been seeing. Which did make Toothless' very sad, but he did understand. Hiccup had every right to replace him if he wanted and Toothless wouldn't protest. He figured it was more likely to happen than not. After all the dragons they'd found with Hiccup's mother, Valka, he'd have plenty of amazing dragons to choose from.

'Maybe even rarer than a Night Fury,' Toothless thought, not lifting his eyes from his reflection once. Toothless had gotten to know the dragon in the water so well now; he knew every feature, every feeling, and every thought. But as he continues to stare at his own face, he noticed at how foreign it looked. He felt so old. So worn out. Even though in reality, he was only as old as Hiccup.

'Why couldn't have I just drowned back at the sea? Why did those dragons have to save me? Hiccup's father could have been alive. He could have taken charge of Berk, so Hiccup didn't have to take on all the pressure yet. And dragons are easier to replace than parents…' Toothless sighed and let out a low groan.

A roll of thunder made him jump a bit. Then he shivered as rain suddenly fell from the clouds and drenched the poor dragon from head to tail. He groaned in annoyance. He and Hiccup were going to go swimming today, and it was hard enough getting him alone anymore. Between Astrid and the village's needs, it seemed as though he barely had any time with the human at all. But it wouldn't work today sadly, it would be too cold for a human and the dragon was nearly freezing.

Toothless turned away from the pond and scanned around him. He spotted one of the trees he and Hiccup would sit under together. It was the spot where Hiccup would usually draw in his notebook or he'd be studying something dragon related. Ever since he was younger he'd been doing that. He hurried over to the tree and sat. He wrapped his tail around his front like he usually sat and huddled as close to the tree as he possibly could. He set his head on his crossed front paws and listened intently to the rain. Toothless grinned when he thought of Hiccup when he was fifteen. When he first shot him down and the first time they flew.

Pit, pat.

Pit, pat.

It was getting dark. The heavy storm clouds continued through the sky, dragging their massive bodies across the hidden blue sky.

Toothless watched as little puddles of water began to collect on the mossy ground. They seemed to gather around the entire grotto. Like they had lives of their own, they all bubbled with rain. This would usually be the part where Toothless would splash some mud at Hiccup, or something along those lines.

'Where is he?' Toothless wondered, 'I'm sure he'd still come if it was raining to get me, wouldn't he?'

Toothless began to think that it was a good idea to head back up to the village and meet Hiccup up there. It really wasn't fair for Hiccup to have to walk all the way down to the grotto and back. He decided that was probably best and was about to get up but thought for a moment. If he left and Hiccup came then he didn't want Hiccup to think he bailed on him. So he decided that it was better to just stay put and see if Hiccup would show up anytime soon.

After a good ten minutes the dragon felt a bit relaxed and just a tad sleepy. He was still very tired from the battle and he hadn't been sleeping his best. He fought his best, but his eye lids fought harder. His vision began to fade soon. And he just let go and let them close. But only for a minute, he didn't want to fall asleep. The darkness behind his eye lids felt good. It seemed to relieve an ache that he had in his head. Maybe he was more tired than he realized. Way more tired.

Suddenly he heard someone call his name. The voice sounded shaky and nervous.

His eye lids flew open and he saw Hiccup. And a truly terrified look plastered his face. Tangled in his auburn locks was snow and he was surrounded by an ice burg.

"What's wrong Hiccup?" Toothless asked in a growl, walking slowly towards him. He couldn't understand what was wrong. Why was Hiccup cowering like that? It was only him.

"Toothless?" Hiccup said his name in a different way. Like he was unsure if it was really Toothless walking towards him, which confused the dragon very much.

"It's okay Hiccup! It's only me! Don't be scared!" Toothless told him in a snarl. He didn't mean it to be a snarl. Why was it a snarl? Then he realized. He wasn't in control of his body. It was like he was a puppet. What was going on?

Then to his surprise, he felt his jaws opening up wide and he could feel the scorching sensation coming from the back of his throat. And then he knew why Hiccup was looking the way he was. He was going to blast Hiccup!

'No! No! No!' Toothless yelled at himself. He tried desperately to stop the plasma blast. He really tried. He attempted to shut his jaws, but it was a futile effort. His body just wouldn't listen. Now he was terrified.

He felt the blue fire beginning to leak its way into his mouth and he drew a breath to blast his best friend to death.

"Toothless?" Hiccup near shouted with fright. His fear was shining bright in his forest green eyes. He looked as though he could cry right there and then.

Then came a loud roar and a cry of urgency, a cry of courage, and a cry of love. And Toothless shot his blast. Then suddenly Stoick came from the right of Hiccup and pushed him out-of-the-way. His strength sent Hiccup tumbling over. But even his strength couldn't handle the sudden plasma blast that slammed into his gut.

"Stoick!" Toothless cried out, finally regaining control of his body. He looked over at Hiccup.

Hiccup met his eyes with anger in them.

Then suddenly he was falling. It was night and the stars were shining bright. He panicked. He could feel the strange sensation of having nothing between him and the earth. He felt gravity taking its toll. He felt the wind brushing up against his scaly face. He quickly tried to spread his wings, but he felt large ropes confining him. He was going to fall. He let out a roar of rage and fear as he fell to the earth far below.

The trees began to come into view and they grew from little specks to large full-sized monsters. It felt as though he was falling in slow motion as he hit the first tree. It knocked the breath out of him. Then he felt a sharp pain at his tail fin. Then he heard a rip. And then came the searing hot pain that shot up his body as he saw that his tail fin had been ripped from his tail by a hidden tree dragon trap.

He hit the tree hard enough that it fell over with him, snapping in two. When he hit the ground he could feel some of his scales roughly rubbing off on the ground. Some even fell off. He rolled across the forest floor and then across a dip in the ground. He felt so dizzy as his spun. The pain he felt was immense.

He finally came to a halt. He let out a breath of air, along with one cry for help and he felt the world slipping around him. He shut his eyes in defeat. Then suddenly he heard a noise.

"Oh wow. I-I did it!" He heard a human voice say.

"Oh, I did it! Th-This fixes everything! Yes! I have brought down this mighty beast!" Then Toothless felt a boot being pressed down on his arm. He growled and shrugged it off carelessly and heard the human male gasp. For some reason this scene sounded so familiar to him. But he couldn't figure out what it was. He opened his eyes to check his surroundings.

There stood a boy of fifteen. With forest green eyes, auburn hair, and a small gap in his teeth.

'Hiccup?' Toothless thought, remembering what was going on here.

Hiccup had the little dagger pointed at Toothless' chest; he gave him a look. He exhaled, inhaled, and exhaled again. His breath was uneven and weak. He began to shake slightly; the adrenaline was nearly visible in his body language.

"I'm gonna kill you dragon… I'm gonna… I'm gonna cut out your heart and take it to my father," Hiccup turned the knife over so it pointed down in his hand, one hand holding the handle and the other over the top. He shut his eyes briefly.

"I'm a Viking," he breathed. He opened his eyes and flashed a vicious look at Toothless.

"I'm a Viking!" He shouted this time. He spat the words at Toothless like he was cussing at him.

Toothless growled desperately at him. He couldn't understand why he wanted to kill him, "Hiccup? What's wrong? Don't you remember me?"

Hiccup went back to his previous stance with the knife. Took a deep breath in and out and lifted the knife above his head.

Toothless began to feel worried, "Hiccup? What are you doing? Hiccup?" He whimpered.

Hiccup opened his green eyes one last time to look at Toothless. Toothless gave him the most pleading look he could muster up.

"Please… Hiccup," he begged. But to Hiccup, the growling not understandable.

Suddenly, it all came back to Toothless. This had happened before. This was when they first met. This is where Hiccup lets him go! Toothless felt a wave of relief.

Then Hiccup shut his eyes again and lifted the knife once more. Toothless knew just what to do. He let out a low whine of defeat and lowered his head to the ground.

He waited. He waited for Hiccup to give up, cut him loose, and that was that.

But it wasn't happening.

He waited a bit more.

Why wasn't it happening?

He opened his eyes cautiously to see if he was still there.

"Hiccup?" He growled.

Then with a cry Hiccup lifted the knife and brought it down, plunging it into Toothless' chest. Pain shot all through Toothless' body.

"Hic-!" He tried to growl, but he was cut off as the world faded around him.

Crash!

He woke with a start as a crash of thunder was beginning to mellow into a low roll. His breathing was up and he could feel his heart beating in his chest.

'What a nightmare,' Toothless thought with disgust. He raised his head and looked around at the gloomy grotto surrounding him. The pool of water had definitely risen a few inches. But Hiccup was nowhere to be found.

Toothless sighed, his ears folding back in disappointment. He yawned, stretched, and stood up slowly. He thought about what Hiccup could be doing, probably some chiefly duties and such. Not every job required a dragon.

With one last thought on his nightmare, he decided it was time to head home. To Hiccup.
