Instead of Stoick getting hit with Toothless's plasma blast it was Hiccup. He died instead of Stoick but when a special, inside the mind, friend comes back it might mean more than just death to Hiccup. It might mean the death to all of his friends and family as well. (Sequel to Happy Nightmarenight Hiccup) Summary might change.

I call this. It's my idea! Nobody elses... I really hope no one already did this. I've been working on it since I watched the movie. Please enjoy.

A Twist in the Tale

Hiccup backed away from Toothless begging with him to snap out of the trance the new alpha put him in. "Snap out of it!" Cried Hiccup loudly pointing at Toothless trying to get thought slited eyes back to their normal round shape.

One step forward.

One step backwards.

Drago started to walk away as Hiccup and Toothless started to walk behind one of the ice shards. Stoick was running towards his son as fast as he could. Valka a ways behind him, calling his name. 'Hiccup's in danger.' Thought Stoick as he ran on a plank to the other side of the smoking boat.

Toothless's throat filled with gas and Hiccup saw his father getting nearer and nearer. He raised one of his hands and pointed it at Toothless and pointed the other at Stoick trying to stop him. Stoick was about to push Hiccup out of the way when all too soon Toothless shot out a plasma blast.

It sent Stoick flying back the way he came and hit Hiccup directly in the chest. The twenty year old was sent flying backward into the ice shards.

Toothless had his head bowed breathing heavily eyes seeing none of the destruction that he caused. Valka gasped and stopped in her tracks before continuing. Stoick got on his hands and knees and shook his head trying to clear it from the sound that filled his ears. When he stood back up he was met by the sight of his son covered in the most likely back breaking shards.

"Hiccup!" Yelled Stoick running over to the pile and throwing them off of his boy. The young man laid still on his side on the frozen ground. Stoick rolled Hiccup on his back and stared at his pale face. Blood leaked out of his mouth and his eyes were closed. "Hiccup? Hiccup wake up! This isn't the time for sleeping Hiccup! Son please wake up."

Valka landed on her knees on the other side of Hiccup and brought her head down towards the spot over Hiccup's heart. There was no 'Ba bum. Ba bum.' Only Stoick's ragged breathes and her own shaky ones. She looked at Stoick and eyes filling up with tears shook her head before resting it on her son's chest.

"No!" Yelled Stoick shaking Hiccup's shoulder. "Hiccup wake up. Come on. You're not dead. You're not. Please stop with the tricks…please. Please." Stoick wrapped an arm around Hiccup and started to cry silently as Toothless started to snap out of his trance.

The dragon shook his head and walked over to the once whole Haddock family and sniffed at Hiccup's body. He bushed his nose against his riders hand and purred. He didn't understand why his rider was so cold and limp in his father's arms. He was trying to wake him up so that Hiccup would jump onto his back and they would defeat Drago and the alpha's control over the dragons.

Why was his rider's father crying? Why was his mother sobbing also? Why? Why? Why? That word passed through the Night Fury's skull so quickly he couldn't understand them.

"Get away! Get away from him!" Yelled Stoick pushing the confused and hurt Night Fury away from his son. Toothless stared at Hiccup's father then back at Hiccup realizing what he had just done. He hadn't just shot him he had killed him. It had been his plasma blast that hit his best friend's chest. His plasma blast that threw him backwards. And his plasma blast that drew Hiccup's last breath.

The teens and Gobber stood shocked close by. And Astrid tears pouring down her face ran over to her boyfriend and sat beside Valka as she cried. "It's not his fault Stoick." Whispered Valka as Toothless slunk away.

The alpha called for his "minions" and the dragons started to fly towards him. Toothless's eyes returned to slits and as soon as they did Drago got on his back and they started flying towards Berk.

But before they could get far all the dragons stopped and looked over at where Hiccup was laying supposedly dead. His body was floating just above the ground and soon even the alpha wasn't able to make the dragons move so he too watched as the transformation continued.

Stoick gasped and Gobber ran up to them and unbuckled Hiccup's left arm brace and rolled up his sleeve showing a black Strike Class birthmark on his wrist. The mark was pitch black and looked like it was burned into Hiccup's flesh.

Had to start it out some way right?
