Chapter 4 folks, so be prepared, and...enjoy ;)

The meeting ended and it was already night, and everyone was home, sound asleep in their dreams, well if they can try to sleep when Magness was coming the very next day. Especially for a certain overprotective father when Magness is coming to do something to his son, but he finally got to sleep, eventually.

Fog, darkness, that was the first thing Stoick saw when his eyes somehow opened wide. He was up, and then he heard the wind blow like tiny whispers, and once some of the fog cleared, he saw something unbelievable but it was right infront of his eyes..

The village...it was burning to the ground as villagers fleed while dragons flew off with their masters except for the teens, who were trying to put out the fires. "Come on, we can take this off!" He heard Snotlout reassure the rest of the teens who apparently had worried looks on their faces.

"But...he has Hiccup...THAT CRAZY MAN HAS HICCUP!" Astrid then yelled as she flew over the burning homes. That was when Stoick noticed that he only saw that all the teens were up in the sky, all except...Hiccup.

"WHAT HAPPENED HERE!?" He suddenly yelled towards Fishlegs, since he was closest teen flying by him.

"M-Magness came and after looking at the village, and at Hiccup, he lied and said everything was fine. But he then set the whole village on fire, you went to get the villagers out, and Hiccup was supposed to led us to put the fire out, but..." Fishlegs paused, trying to maintain himself then finished,

"He and Toothless got captured by Magness over there by that second hill, we tried to help him, but he commanded us to leave and take this fire out..."

Fishlegs didn't have to say anything else before Stoick began to run faster than he could ever have to the second hill. The closer he got to his desination, he could his father laugh so eagerly, Hiccup's screams of pain and horror, and the roars of a trapped Toothless.

By the time he got to the second hill, there he was, infront of his father, and Hiccup, who was on the ground struggling to get up, but was being pushed down by Magness. Hiccup'as forehead had a huge cut as crimson blood came running down slowly, his right eye was purple, indicating that he was punched in the face real bad.

His left arm was dangling by his side, as if it was broken, his nose was bleeding along with his bottom lips, and the back of his tunic was turning red since his vest was tossed to the side.

Stoick tried to approach his beaten up son, but the distance of his father's sword towards his son, made him stop in fear as Magness laughed,

"Ah Stoick, I was just having a marvelous time torturing your son the way he was supposed to since he's a pathetic excuse of a viking, oh wait I forgot, he's a hiccup, the runt..."

Stoick was infuriated and charged towards his father, until his father, lifted Hiccup up, with the sword close to his back, as the boy trembled in the same fear he had when he was a baby.

"Not so fast Stoick, you don't want me to push this sharp, killing sword through your son's chest, now do you?"

Stoick looked at his father in shock and fear, his own father was threatening to kill his son, right in front of his eyes. "Dad, please, let go of Hiccup,please. He's all I have left, please father, I'll do anything..."

But Magness answered in a snigger," Oh sure, give me this whole village, teach me how to train these dragons and then I'll release your runt."

Stoick knew he could't betray the village and hand it to his father, but what choice did he had, he had to save his son, no matter what. "Alright, the village is yours and we'll tell you all the dragon secrets, now give back my son..."

"No,I know you Stoick, once I give you the boy, you'll turn on your deal like what you did to that attacking fleet a few years ago. I warned you the day before you married Valka that if your child will be nothing but trouble to you and himself, just look how scared and cowardly your son acts. Ha, I've seen you be braver than that..." Magness began and held the sword with a tight grip, while shaking Hiccup very violently, making him remain silent in trembling fear.

"Father, please don't..Hiccup's your grandson..."

"SHUT UP! This runt is no grandson of mine, no, this is what should have become of this weakling the second he was born!" Stoick's blood turned cold when he saw his father rise the sword and without hesitation, Stoick ran up to him, grabbed Hiccup, and ran off, while holding his beaten up son.

He ran off the hill until everythinh was not so dark and foggy. Stoick looked around the fog desperately until he heard Hiccup cough and whimper," Dad, he's going to get me..."

Before Stoick could say another word, Magness was right there in front of both father and son, holding a crossbow that was already armed. "Now don't think you could escape from me that easily," he sneered and began to shoot, but Stoick dodged each blow, making Magness even more angry.

"YOU GET BACK HERE, I'M NOT LEAVING UNTIL THAT HICCUP IS DEAD AND GONE!"

The crazy man then pushed Stoick to the side, causing him to drop Hiccup on the other side. Stoick went for his son, as Magness continued to shoot arrows everywhere. Hiccup got up and once Stoick got to him, the unspeakable happened.

Just before Hiccup could warn his father, bam, and arrow shot right through Hiccup's chest , like a sword penetrating through a shield. Hiccup stood still, heavily breathing with his eyes wide open as blood began to pour out of his chest like a leaking sack of water.

He fell, and Stoick ran up to his son while his father laughed crazily. "Hiccup, no please stay with me.."

"Its okay dad...I didn't wan it to end but at least...grandpa got what he wanted..." And with that Hiccup laid still when his eyes turned pale, no breathing of any sort, on his fathers arms. Stoick began to shake as tears ran through his eyes.

"Hiccup, no. NO! PLEASE DON'T GO!"

"DAD WAKE UP! Oh for the love of thor, wake up!"

Stoick jumped up from his sleeping chair and realized that he was back home, and Hiccup was right by his side, shaking his arm.

"It was about grandpa, wasn't it?"

Stoick looked at his son, tears formed as he leaned forward, and embraced Hiccup, who didn't seem to mind. "Oh Hiccup, it was awful, your grandfather, he...he...he killed you..." He just continued to cry until he calmed down and then Hiccup reassured,

"Don't worry dad, I have you and Toothless, nothing is going to happen."

Stoick still held on to his son as if he was his treasure and replied," And I'll make sure that nothing will ever happen."

The father and son held on to each other close and eventually fell asleep on each others arms, never to let go. Not ever.

Okay, just to give you a heads up, the next chapter is when Magness comes to berk. See ya :)
