EXT. WOODS - DAY ON AN OPEN NOTEBOOK
"Did you go and look for that dragon alone?!" Astrid exclaimed. "Are you mad?"
"Awesome! Did it try and kill you? Do you have a scar?" Tuffnut asked, picking up Hiccup's hand and checking it for marks.
"No-no, I don't have a s-scar.." Hiccup stuttered removing his hand from Tuffnut's grasp.
The teens stared at Hiccup and wondered how he had managed to kill a nightfury and get away
"You did kill the Night fury right?" Fishlegs asked paling.
"Of course he did!" Stoick laughed clasping his huge hands together in amusement.
A drawn map of the island, covered in X's. Hiccup looks up from it and peeks over a gorge, expectantly. Sees nothing. He adds another 'X' to the page, then scratches his pencil over the whole map in frustration. He snaps the book closed and pockets it.
"Hiccup, lad, don't take your anger out on the book" Gobber laughed trying to relieve the tension of the previous conversation.
HICCUP Uggh, the gods hate me. Some people lose their knife or their mug. No, not me. I manage to lose an entire dragon.
"Maybe it got loose and flew away" Fishlegs said as the Vikings started to laugh at Hiccup's misfortune.
Stoick wasn't laughing; he was busy watching in anticipation at what was going to happen next.
Hiccup WHACKS a low-hanging branch. It SNAPS back at him, hitting him in the face.
"Nicely done" Snotlout snorted, he wanted to embarrass hiccup as much as he could before he killed the Night fury.
He looks up to see a snapped tree trunk. His eyes follow it to a long trench of up-turned earth.
Many of the Vikings paled, not sure if they were ready to see Hiccup kill the legendary nightfury, however Stoick watched the screen with fascination.
He follows it to a downed, black dragon, its body and tail tangled in a bola. It appears dead.
Hiccup winced, he hated seeing Toothless wrapped up like that, and it was worse knowing that he did that to him; He was the one who injured him enough to make him loose the ability to fly.
The teens looked at him wondering why he, for some reason, looked like he was in pain and they began to question if killing the Night fury had scarred him for life.
Hiccup approaches, beaming.
HICCUP (CONT'D) (IN SHOCK) Oh wow. I did it. I did it. This fixes everything.
(ELATED) Yes!
He strikes a victory pose, planting his foot on the fallen Night Fury.
HICCUP (CONT'D) I have brought down this mighty beast!
It suddenly shifts.
HICCUP (CONT'D) Whoa!
Hiccup chuckled at his first meeting with Toothless and many of the Vikings looked at him in fear he'd gone mad, why was he laughing?
Hiccup springs back, terrified. He turns his blade on it. Rattled, Hiccup creeps along the length of the weak, wounded dragon, dagger poised to strike. As he reaches the head, Hiccup finds the Night Fury staring coldly at him. Hiccup tries to look away, but he's drawn back to its unnerving, unflinching stare. With the dragon safety tangled in the ropes, Hiccup jabs with his dagger, puffing himself up with false bravado.
HICCUP (CONT'D) I'm going to kill you, Dragon. I'm gonna cut out your heart and take it to my father.
Hiccup scowled at the screen- He was so glad he made the right decision.
He would never have thought that a dragon could be a better friend to him than any human in his village.
Meanwhile Stoick beamed at everyone, his son was thinking about impressing him when he killed the dragon! He had never been so proud of him and started to realise that his son was a true Viking.
I'm a Viking.
(BEAT) I am a VIKING!
Hiccup quietly chuckles "Why did I ever think that"
Hiccup raises the dagger, determined to prove his Viking- ness. The dragons laboured breathing breaks Hiccup's clenched concentration. He opens an eye, uncertainty leaking through. The dragon holds the stare. Something profound is exchanged.
The Vikings waited with anticipation but Hiccup was trying not to look at his past self on the screen, he knew he'd made the right choice, but he also knew that the rest of the village wouldn't agree.
Finally, the Night Fury closes its eye and lowers its head, resigned to its fate. Hiccup tries to go through with it, holding the dagger aloft... fighting himself... until finally lowering it with a frustrated sigh. He looks over the dragon's chaffed rope wounds.
HICCUP (CONT'D) (muttered, ashamed) I did this.
"Sorry, bud" Hiccup whispered
Stoick glared at the screen, Hiccup was going to kill the dragon, right?
He turns to leave. Pauses. And glances back at the dragon, chest heaving. Hiccup GRUMBLES. He checks over his shoulder to ensure that no one is watching... then hurries back to cut the ropes. The Night Fury's eye shoots open. With the dragon watching his every move, Hiccup hurriedly saws through the bola ropes.
Stoick felt his anger building up, Hiccup didn't kill the dragon, he set it free. He was trying to regain himself, waiting to see if Hiccup changed his mind.
As the last rope falls free, the Night Fury suddenly POUNCES! In a blur, the dragon is upon him, pinning Hiccup down, grazing his neck. Looking like it's about to kill him. Hiccup is paralyzed.
A flood of gasps came from the Vikings, they were waiting for Hiccup's end.
The dragon's breath ruffles his hair. Hiccup opens his eyes to find the Night Fury's wolf-like stare boring into him. The exchange is intense, profound. The dragon draws a deep breath, as though it's about to torch him, then lets out an ear-piercing scream instead.
The teens let out breaths that they hadn't realised they had been holding.
"You were lucky there!" Fishlegs exclaimed.
"Lucky!" Astrid shouted "That wasn't luck that was.. Hiccup, Why didn't it kill you?" Everyone turned to look a Hiccup who was unable to muster a reply and began to redden at everyone looking at him.
"Or better question. Why did you kill it?" Snotlout asked angrily- Hiccup could of killed the dragon but didn't because he was scared? Guilty?
It turns and takes flight, flapping violently through the canopy of trees. It bashes against a nearby mountain side, recovers, and drops out of view some distance away.
Winded, Hiccup struggles to his feet, staggers a few steps, collapses to his knees, and faints.
There was a brief pauses and then Stoick's anger built up again at the thought of the Night fury getting away.
"HICCUP HOW DARE YOU SET THAT THING FREE! YOU LET ME THINK YOU'D KILLED IT! WHY DIDNT YOU KILL IT, IT DESTROYS EVERTHING, IT COULD OF DESTROED YOU!"
"YOU DONT THINK- THAT MONSTER-" Stoick began.
Hiccup flinched, insulting him was fine; everyone always insulted him, but insulting his dragon was going too far
"LEAVE TOOTHLESS OUT OFTHIS-"
"Who is Toothless?" Stoick fumed, had his son named the Nightfury?
"Th-that doesn't matter, just he isn't as bad as we think!"
"HE!?" Stoick growled at the fact that Hiccup not only named the dragons, but referred to it as if he knew it.
"YES HE! DRAGONS ARE NOT THE MONSTERS WE THINK THEY ARE!"
Stoick laughed and it boomed against the walls.
"You've betrayed us- all of us! You're not my son- You never were" Stoick said sitting down once more.
Hiccup felt a pain- this was the worst he'd ever felt before- His own father didn't accept him, 'well that's fine, I have the dragons.' He thought.
He felt the glares from the whole village, but the stares that bothered him came from the teens and Gobber- what did they think of him? Did they think that he was a traitor?
"Is there anymore we should see, or can we just go?!" Stoick boomed standing up again and turned around scanning the room for an exit.
Suddenly the girl from earlier appeared
"STOP!" She shouted before Stoick could leave.
"What you've to see isn't over yet! There is more! Lots more!" "Now sit down!"
She waited until everyone was comfy and then said "Now I understand how you are feeling towards Hiccup, but watch the rest before you make a final judgement on him, please" She said as stoick shot her a look and grumbled as he sat down, looking at Hiccup as though he was planning on how he would kill him.
The movie began to play once more. Thanks to everyone for reading! I hope you enjoyed it and did you think I did the argument ok?
