((This is the story I already told you guys about. 'The Battlenight' is my idea of how Hiccup's mom was kidnapped and how Astrid's mom died. I'm going to build the whole story up with flashbacks of the people who live arround Berk. Please enjoy!))

~The Battlenight~
It had been a calm evening. It had been quiet. It had been almost perfect that day. Nobody had expected something like this would happen. Nobody had known it was silence before the storm.
Even the old wise women had thoughed it would be okay. Even she had thoughed nothing would happen. Even she was wrong...
It had been awfull, that night. Worse than anyone could imagine. Worse than their most feared nightmares.
A lot of lifes had been lost. Most of them were dead, some were catched by dragons and taken away. They had never lost this much before.
And it had been like the dragons wanted to destroy Berk. They didn't take any food, no, not at all. All they did was burn everything down. They had tried to destroy Berk. And they didn't fail.
Stoick was sitting in the great hall with Gobber. He was staring blankly at the wall. Gobber had tried to talk to him, but Stoick kept staring into the emphty space.
Flashbacks. That was all that he saw.
Don't you dare look out your window, darling everything's on fire...
The war outside our door keeps raging on...
Everything was burning. Everything. I looked arround and saw our own house was on fire too. All I could think about was saving Hiccup and Valka. They were indoors. Inside of the burning house. When I ran to our house, I saw Valka was outdoors, holding Hiccup tightly. Our little son had blood all over his face, he had a cut on his forhead, that was probably the reason why he was bleeding. He was crying. Valka handed Hiccup over to me, she was wounded too. Her back was completely burned. Just when I tried to ask her if she was alright a Monstrous Nightmare came and took her. I yelled at her and the dragon. I pulled my sword out and threw it towards the dragon, but I missed him. I was too late. They were too high and he was taking my wife away, leaving me behind with our 6 year old todler. She yelled at me that she would be fine, but we both knew she was going to die. "Take care of Hiccup!" Was the last thing I heard her saying before she dissapeared between the clouds.
"Stoick?" Gobber put a hand on the man's shoulder. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Are yah sure?"
"Yes, Gobber! I'm fine!" Stoick stood up and left the great hall, walking towards the nurse hut. He walked in and looked at all the wounded people. His eyes stopped searching when they found a thin, auborn haired and green eyed boy. He walked towards the boy who was sleeping, a nurse was by his side. "Is he okay?"
When all those shadows almost killed your light,
I remember you said 'Don't leave me here alone.'
Fire. Fire, everywere. I heard my mom screaming. "Hiccup?! Hiccup where are you?!" "I'm here mommy!" Was my reply. She ran towards me with a shield in front of her, to protect her for the fire. She let her shield drop as she saw me with this bleeding cut on my forhead. She looked worried. Worried about me, I guess. I looked at her with wide eyes, I saw the reflection of the fire in her eyes. She smiled lightly at me and hugged me. "It's gonna be okay..." She said. I nodded and she lifted me up. She forgot her shield so she turned her back towards the flames to protect me. Once we were outdoors, we saw dad coming towards us. She handed me over to him and I hugged him tightly while I burried my face in his chest, I didn't want to see the battle. I heard dad screaming and felt him throwing something, so I looked up. Mom was in the air, held by the claws of a Monstrous Nightmare. "MOMMY!" I yelled after she dissapeared.
The small boy suddenly woke up and sat up, breathing heavyly. He saw his dad and began to cry. Stoick took his little son on his lap, wiped his tears away and stroke his back for comfort.
"It's all gonna be okay... No one can hurt you now."
Just close your eyes, the sun is going down...
You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now...
((I hope you guys liked it! This was a short chapter, and I used the lyrics of the song 'Safe and Sound' by Taylor Swift and the Civil Wars. The lyrics fits perfectly with this story and the song itself is awesome.))
