I've been working on this story all week...and guess what! I'm almost done! Yah it will be the first story that is more than 1 chapter long to be finished...I've been thinking and i want you guys to tell me if it's a good idea. What if I post the parts of stories that I will never finish and just let you guess read them. I will probably never finish them so why should I have all the fun with reading them...I might let some people have them so they could finish them...though I don't know how to give them to anybody...but anyway your choice I'm leaving this exciting choice to my readers.

THREE MORE MONTHS TILL JUNE! I'll have to hurry up and finish Berk and Dragons before the sequel comes out or else my inspiratioon to do the story will be gone. And to all those not finished storis in my favorites HURRY UP AND FINISH THEM!

disclaimer: I own nothing but the clothes on my back and the food that I eat...and the new creature in this chapter (Spoiler!)


Hiccup stared at his claws his eyes dilating back to normal. He then looked at Snotlout and loosened his grip on Snotlout's neck. Said Viking fell to his knees gasping for breath.

Hiccup then looked at Astrid, who was sitting up on the ground her hand up to her cheek the blood dripping over her hand and traveling to the ground. He took a couple of steps back his ears flat against his head and a look of pure horror plastered on his face.

Astrid looked at him and Hiccup took a step towards her but stopped when the teens, who weren't on the ground bleeding or gasping for breath, stepped in front of her and got in a threatening position.

"Stay away!" Ordered Tuffnut in a commanding tone, Ruffnut nodded in agreement, and Fishlegs didn't do anything but stare at his friend terrified. Hiccup looked at Astrid then at Snotlout and finally at the teens protecting their friend. He spread his wings and, giving Astrid one more glance, shot into the air and flew away from the village.

The three teens who had "protected" Astrid kneeled down to her and asked if she was okay.

"I'm fine it's just a few scratches." Stated Astrid standing up. Once she dusted herself off she started the way Hiccup had flown off.

"Where are you going?" Asked Fishlegs walking over to Snotlout and helping him up.

"I'm going to find Hiccup." Answered Astrid ignoring the gasps of shock.

"You can't, didn't you see what he did to you?"Asked Ruffnut.

"Yes I do see, but Hiccup needs us. Especially now." Stated Astrid entering the forest.

"Is anyone else thinking what I'm thinking?" Asked Fishlegs.

"If it's to stay here then yes."Stated Tuffnut not moving an inch from where he was standing. Ruffnut nodded in agreement and when Astrid disappeared behind the trees they went over to Snotlout who was trying to untangle his basket weaved wings from each other.

oOo

As Astrid walked through the woods she spotted a patch of ground that had footsteps in it. She guessed Hiccup had landed and walked the rest of the way, so she went in the direction the footsteps looked like they were heading.

After half an hour she started to spot claw marks on the trees around her. She noticed how in each incision they got deeper and deeper into the tree bark. Astrid looked around her and noticed that she was close to the cove where Hiccup had trained Toothless.

After guessing that was where Hiccup was, she started to run through the trees to the entrance of the cove. When she got there however she stopped in her tracks and stared horrified at the rock entrance leading down to the bottom.

On the rock there were five sets of claw scratches going all the way to the bottom. She followed them hesitantly and as she finally made it to the bottom she heard a wild scream. It wasn't a dragon and it wasn't a human cry either.

"Hiccup!" Gasped Astrid as she raced into the clearing. When she spotted him, her eyes widened and she quickly grabbed her ax.

There on the ground near the lake was a shadowy creature its teeth latched onto Hiccup's throat. Astrid started running towards them with her ax brandished over her head. The creature didn't seem to notice as shadows started to surround the cove. Hiccup screamed again and his eyes connected with Astrid's. He gasped for breathe as the grip around his neck tightened.

"Astrid…run!" Gasped Hiccup watching through half lidded eyes as Astrid rushed upon the creature.

"I'm not leaving you to die!" She yelled and swung her ax just missing the creature by an inch. Its eyes were a glowing yellow as it looked at her but did not let Hiccup go. Its shadowy tail came up and quickly snatched Astrid's ax away throwing it aside easily. It then used its tail and wrapped it around Astrid's neck lifting her up off the ground.

Hiccup struggled harder against the creatures grip but was failing miserably. Astrid was gasping for breath clawing at the tail with her nails, trying to get it to loosen its grip.

"Hic-HICCUP!" Screamed Astrid as it became clear that she wasn't going to be able to survive at this rate. Hiccup used one of his clawed hands and threw it up getting it to land on the creature's left eye. It hissed in pain and loosened its grip on Astrid while Hiccup pulled his throat out of the beast's jaws. Hiccup, bleeding heavily out of his throat, launched himself at the creature and screamed. "Leave her alone you coward!"

Hiccup held on to the creature as it tried to buck him off. Hiccup seemed to go into a craze and Astrid sat on the ground panting staring up at the scene in front of her. Hiccup planted his teeth into the scruff of the creature and bit down hard. He tore the skin away from the creature's scruff and used his clawed hands to rip away more flesh.

The creature turned with remarkable speed and latched its teeth into Hiccup's neck and ripped him off of its back. Hiccup screamed as the creature quickly tore his throat and threw him aside to lay motionless on the ground before leaping into the air and spreading its black shadowy wings, and flew away. Once it left the cove was showered in dazzling light that reflected off the crimson blood that was all over the ground.

Astrid finally got some courage and stood up. Her eyes instantly met the unmoving form of Hiccup. She quickly ran over to his body and fell to her knees before rolling him over so she could see his throat. As soon as he was moved to his back, he quickly pounced on Astrid thinking she was the creature. Blood splattered Astrid's face as Hiccup's throat bled out.

Hiccup showed his teeth in a snarl and Astrid gulped as it looked like he was going to tear out her throat, but Hiccup's eyes were out of focus and he jumped off her once he started to get dizzy. He tried to flap his wings but they wouldn't move. And as soon he realized that he wouldn't be able to escape he fell to the ground and let out a pained scream.
