Day 1: Holding Hands
Astrid's POV:
Hiccup hated how Viggo outsmarted us. Or more correctly, him. Most days he spent inside his hut coming up with ways to attack Viggo. He only came out for training and to fly Toothless.
But now, things are different. Especially after what happened yesterday. Hiccup had led us to attack the Dragon Hunters with a full proof plan that I came up with. We'd attack different ships by sneak attack then attack Viggo's. Our dragons were fully equipped with Gronkle Iron.
Unfortunately, we were not. Viggo had the hunters shoot at us. Hiccup called us to retreat, but not before I got hit in the arm. And I guess they coated it with something because it knocked me unconscious.
And that's where I am right now. I'm assuming it's a coma or something because all I see is darkness.
I groaned, "How long must I-"
Then everything shook. I toppled over, and the floor I was underneath cracked. I gasped and tried to step back, but it didn't matter. The floor was breaking. I fell through the floor to a bright light. I shut my eyes pretending to feel pain.
Nothing came. I opened my eyes and saw the twins.
Ruffnut walked over to me and asked, "How could you Astrid?"
"Huh?"
Tuffnut growled, "Because of you, we're all dead!"
"Wh-what?" I said, "I didn't-"
"You're stupid plan got us all killed! Well most of us. I'm sure the others will join us soon." Tuffnut glared.
I said, "That's not possible. I saw us retreat… I'm not dead! We're just unconscious."
"Oh yeah?" Ruffnut seethed. "Look down."
So I did and I gasped. I just watched as Tuff and Ruff went down. Their dragons grabbed them and flew them away. Then I saw Snotlout and Hookfang. He had his eyes set on something.
I looked to see my own body covered in blood. Stormfly stood by me, protecting me against the fleet. Snotlout must've been going to grab me.
He didn't notice the archer on the other masthead.
I yelled, "Snotlout, look out!"
It didn't matter. The arrow soared through the air into Snotlout's chest. He collapsed on Hookfang's back. Hookfang roared and flew away after Barf and Belch.
I begged, "Please don't let him be dead."
"Astrid?"
I turned around to see Snotlout on the floor confused. He asked, "Ruff? Tuff? What's going on?"
Tuffnut stated, "We're dead… because of her… and her stupid plan."
Snotlout turned to me. He asked, "We're dead?"
I frowned and started sobbing. Then I felt a sharp pain in my cheek. I looked up to see Fishlegs. He stated, "We never should've followed through with your dumbass plan."
"Fishlegs… I didn't mean it… I'm sorry." I cried.
"Save it! I had so much left to do in life." Snotlout growled. "For once, I'm with Fish and the twins. This is your fault."
I cried then realized someone wasn't here. I whispered, "Hiccup…"
I turned back to the floor. It was now on a closeup. Hiccup was on Viggo's ship with me in his arms. He was crying as Toothless and Stormfly guarded us.
Hiccup cried, "Astrid, no! Don't leave me too… please! I never even got to tell you… I love you. Please, come back to me…"
I gasped. He loved me? More tears fell as I saw Viggo approach.
He said, "So sad. So… tragic. The girl you've loved since you were young… dead. And you never told her."
Hiccup growled. "You're a monster."
"No I'm afraid she is. She is the one who came up with your plan."
"No, Astrid would never mean any of this. And I'd never blame her either. I should've been there. It's my job to protect her… to protect them. I failed."
Viggo laughed, "That's right. You did. No you will join them."
Hiccup growled. "This isn't the end Viggo. One day, you will be beaten."
"Highly unlikely. If I'm able to defeat the mighty powerful dragon master, I think I can handle just about anybody. Say hi to Astrid for me." Viggo said raising his dagger.
It seemed to happen in slow motion. As Hiccup was run through, I collapsed to the floor.
I said, "No… no, Hiccup. I love you too… please."
Tears fell onto the floor. I've never cried in my life, and here I was.
"It's over…" Someone spoke.
I turned around. Hiccup stood there in shock. I ran forward to hug him, but he stepped back. Hiccup just frowned and walked away. Everyone joined him.
I said, "hey wait!"
I ran after them, but it seemed as the harder I tried the further they got. Giving up, I sat on the floor and cried.
"I'm sorry… I'm sorry."
Then the floor broke through and I fell into the ocean.
Immediately, my eyes shot open and it took a bit to register where I was. I sat up to look around. It was my hut! Hiccup was hunched over in a chair asleep, holding my hand. Stormfly was asleep with Toothless by the door.
I whispered, "Hiccup… wake up."
Hiccup opened his eyes a bit and saw me. His eyes widened and he beamed, "Astrid! You're awake!"
His didn't let go of my hand. I asked, "What happened?"
"You were shot by an arrow… we rushed you back to the edge. Heather and Fishlegs went to help… they said they didn't know and…" Hiccup trailed off.
I asked, "What? Hiccup?"
"There was so much blood. I thought I was going to lose you."
I became silent. Hiccup looked at me with those big green eyes. He didn't let go of my hand. I blushed a bit.
I said, "How long have you been there?"
"A couple days maybe?" Hiccup blushed.
I glared, "Hiccup!"
"Okay, okay… a week and a half." Hiccup muttered.
"WHAT?!" I shrieked.
"It's okay! It was fine. I'm just happy you're okay."
I smiled. "Thanks Hiccup. And I'm sorry."
"What for?" He asked.
"For creating that plan… I put everyone in danger. It's my fault I got hurt."
"No Astrid," Hiccup stated, "I should've been there. Your plan was great, but Viggo was smart. We'll be more prepared next time with armor for ourselves."
I frowned and sighed. Hiccup asked, "What's wrong?"
"I had this nightmare. We were all dead because of my dumb plan. And everyone blamed me. Then when you died, I never got to say… I never got to say."
Hiccup asked, "Say what?"
I gulped. "That I love you… you may not-"
Hiccup cut me off by a quick kiss still not letting my hand go. He broke away and whispered, "I love you too, Astrid. And I'm never letting you go."
I blushed and asked, "Am I allowed to get up?"
Hiccup nodded. I sat up, he still held my hand. He said, "You're just in time to watch the sun set."
I smiled and walked with him to the door. Stormfly squaked and I pet her beak. Toothless cooed and Hiccup pet him.
He asked, "You ready milady?"
I nodded. "I am."
And together, him and I walked to the beach to watch the sun set. And our hands stayed together as shall we.
