Warning this could allude to SPOILERS FOR HTTYD 2. For people who have not seen it I will be careful and try to avoid them but no promises.

ANOTHER WARNING: This contains death. So yeah. Saddness and depressing stuff.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

By the way Dragon speech will always be in italics like this: I'm a dragon.

Wind gushed over Toothless' black ear flaps, bringing the moaning cry of dying Vikings.

It was all over.

Berk had lost.

In his reptilian forelegs, Toothless held the only thing that tied him here.

Hiccup.

The Viking's name resounded tenderly in his mind and out through his nose as he nudged a smallish young man with shaggy brown hair. Coarse wounds ran along his freckled, pale, grimacing, face. His deep green eyes closed in agony. An arrow stuck out from his abdomen. The archer who had once owned this arrow now lay in pieces all over the battlefield. No one survived the Night Fury's wrath.

The Berkians had already fallen to enemy weapons when Hiccup had called for a retreat. Up in the air, Hiccup seemed to be safe with Toothless. Then the lucky arrow hit. Hiccup toppled off of Toothless' back and onto the blood-spattered ground. The Night Fury followed him landed quickly on his feet. Toothless raced over to his rider, his best friend in the whole world. The injury was deadly, causing blood to flow endlessly from it. Rage built inside Toothless' heart until it burst from him like fire. His first targets were the archers. Even though Toothless was unsure which had harmed Hiccup he made sure all of them met a cruel end. The enemy ships soon retreated to their shores, fearing the enraged Night Fury.

After the enemies defeat, Toothless returned to his fallen rider. He had cuddled Hiccup close to his chest, placed his nose on Hiccup's forehead and prayed that the boy would wake. Hours passed and Hiccup's breathing became more and more frail. Toothless was beginning to lose hope when Hiccup's deep green eyes finally opened.

"Toothless?" Hiccup wheezed.

Toothless smiled, his gums hiding his sharp teeth.

Hiccup laughed softly as the Night Fury began to lick his face excitedly.

"You know that doesn't wash out bud…" Hiccup's laugh soon turned to a gasp.

He clutched his wounded stomach and felt the arrow. Toothless lowered his ears and looked at his friend worriedly. Hiccup's eyes widened in horror as he stared the shaft and the feathers attached to it. He twisted his frightened glance to Toothless who purred nervously. The light in Hiccup's eyes began to fade and the boy felt faint. He slowly brought his hand to the Night Fury's nose. Toothless met Hiccup's hand without hesitation. Hiccup sighed sadly,

"I love you, Toothless."

Toothless crooned softly,

I love you, Hiccup.

Hiccup's hand gradually fell from Toothless' snout. His arm hit the ground with a placid thud. Toothless nudged him. He would not rouse; his eyes stared blankly into the orange, painted, dusk sky. Toothless whimpered,

Hiccup…
