Hi everyone! Soo this is basically my version of the story if Stoick hadn't died.

What if the plasma didn't hit him? I wanted to take a break from all the angst of y other stories and this came out. Besides, if I think about the fact that Stoick actually dies in the movie I start to cry like a baby so I wanted to write something where he lives.

Seriously, this fandom needs more love or we'll all be dead before httyd3 even comes out.

Enjoy!

"Hiccup!"

Hiccup turned around and his eyes narrowed when he saw his father running to him.

Panic overwhelmed him.

He couldn't die trying to save him.

"DAD NO!" he yelled holding out his hand to stop him.

In one second Toothless' blast was flying in the air and Hiccup was thrown away, a heavy body pressed on his.

When he was able to think again he opened his eyes to find himself trapped under the ice with his father on him.

"Dad!" he shouted.

For a terrifying long moment his dad's body was still, then he stirred and looked up.

"Hiccup?"

"Dad!"

Stoick laughed in relief and Hiccup gasped under his shaking body "Dad... you're crushing me"

"Oh, right, sorry son"

He pushed the ice aside like it was nothing and helped him up.

"No! You missed!" they heard a roar.

He turned to see Drago hop on Toothless' back whose eyes were still thin lines.

He smacked his staff on his head and the dragon whined.

"NO!"

Hiccup launched himself forward but his farher held him "Toothless! Let him go!"

Drago didn't pay attention to him.

He spurred Toothless and took flight.

Hiccup struggled without any success, watching his dragon fly away with the black Bewilderbeast and the other dragons following them.

They were instantly tackled to the ground by her mother "I thought you two were dead!" she screamed, her green eyes filled with tears.

Stoick took her in his arms gently "It's okay, Val. We're both alive"

"HICCUP!"

He didn't have to turn to recognise the shriek.

Astrid was running towards him.

No, not running. Limping.

He jumped on his feet and rushed over her.

As soon as his arms were around her she abandoned herself against his chest, breathing heavily.

"Astrid, why are you limping?" he asked worriedly.

She waved dismissively "It's just a sprained ankle. Stormfly just unsaddled me. I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!"

He rolled his eyes "I'm fine. Let's see your ankle"

"Not it's okay" she exclaimed "Are you hurt-"

She pushed him away to look at his face but as soon as she didn't have any support she fell to the icy ground with a scream.

"Thor's hammer!" she shouted in frustration.

Hiccup knew she was like a feral cat when she was hurt so he knelt slowly beside her.

"Can I see it?" he asked softly.

"No!" she snapped "I'm perfectly capable of- ow!"

"Oh, dear"

His mother knelt in front of her and Astrid's blue eyes narrowed.

"Can I?" Valka asked.

Astrid bit her lip "I don't-"

"Let her see it, Astrid" said Stoick coming behind her and placing his big hands on her narrow shoulders.

She looked up at him and sighed "Okay"

Hiccup groaned "Why do you listen to him but not to me?"

Astrid scoffed. In the meanwhile his mother was watching that little exchange with her eyebrows knitted together.

She was probably wondering who that blonde girl was to them. He was about to make introductions when Astrid's cry made him tear his eyes off his mother.

"You can't fight with this ankle" Valka said wrapping it in a weird green bamdage she had taken from her suit.

Astrid scrolled her shoulders "I've been worse. I can fight. I have to. That madman took my dragon and I'm going to get her back"

Hiccup sighed in annoyance and Valka looked at Stoick with wide eyes.

The chief shrugged "She's like this, Val. Nothing will make her change her mind. I wonder how the two of them have lasted this long since they're both so goddamn stubborn"

Valka gasped and let go of Astrid's ankle "So... you're..." she turned to Hiccup "You didn't tell me you had a special someone, Hic"

He rubbed the back of his neck "It didn't really... you know, come up"

His mother smiled tenderly at Astrid "So you're...?"

"Astrid Hofferson, my lady"

"Soon to be Haddock" Stoick said.

"Stoick" Astrid said blushing furiously.

"You two are- ho gods, how many things I missed!"

"It's no big deal, mom!"

"No big deal?!" Astrid yelled and Hiccup flinched realising that he had pissed off his girlfriend to calm down his mother.

"I didn't mean it like that, I meant, you know... oh"

He groaned.

He definetely wasn't ready to deal with two women in his life.

"We have to go back to Berk"

He turned to see Gobber talking with his father.

He felt a lump in his throat as the painful reality hit him.

Drago had Toothless. He was going to destroy Berk.

"Well... with what?" Ruffnut said stepping in.

"Yeah" Tuffnut agreed "That crazy man took all of our dragons"

Valka's mouth dropped open and Hiccup looked at her.

They shared a quick understanding glance.

"... all but the babies of course, who listen to no one"

Hiccup smiled broadly "Not all of them"


Good? Bad? Horrible?

What do you think?

Should I continue it?

Let me know what you think! ;)
