Back on the outside.

Astrid gasped as Hiccup seemed to become violent. He had pulled his lips back and stared at her with eyes as black as night and before she could do anything he had started to kiss her jaw. Sending chills down her back.

The demon Hiccup ran kisses all the way down her neck and was about to tear her throat out just as Hiccup had regained control. He whimpered in shock and let Astrid go. He fell to the ground and backed away quickly.

"Hiccup what…were did that…?" Asked Astrid shocked. She looked into his regained forest green eyes and saw something she never wanted to see in him.

Horror.

Pain.

And worst of all guilt.

"I'm so sorry Astrid…that wasn't me…"

"Then who was it?"

"I…I don't want to scare you."

"Scare me! HA! I laugh in the face of danger."

"Then why didn't you laugh at me?"

"What do you mean Hiccup?" Asked Astrid totally confused.

"I'm a monster." Whispered Hiccup touching the leaf around his neck unconsciously.

"No you're not Hiccup."

"Yes I am!" Screamed Hiccup his eyes darkening as he stood up. He shook his head franticly and looked at Astrid his eyes still narrowed as slits. That's when Astrid saw it, the tears that ran down her best friend's cheek. Hiccup looked away from her.

"Can you help me to my house?" He asked. Astrid nodded and waited for Hiccup to move. Hiccup looked back at her and seemed to be asking her to help him start moving. Astrid walked up to him and noticed the leaf was completely brown with blood.

"First let's get a new leaf for you." Said Astrid going over to the pile of plants that she had left on the ground. She grabbed a new leaf and made her way back to Hiccup. She peeled the leaf off and was about to wrap the new leaf around Hiccup's throat until she noticed it was already healing.

The skin was a fleshy red but Hiccup's throat wound seemed to be completely healed over. Astrid gently touched his throat with her index finger, and swiftly pulled away as Hiccup gasped in pain.

"Okay so let's wrap this up to make sure the skin grows strong. It seems to have already healed over but the skin seems a little weak." Said Astrid wrapping the leaf around Hiccup's throat. Hiccup sighed and tried to walk but stumbled. Astrid let him put weight on her shoulder and helped him through the forest in the direction of the village.

They walked in silence for what seemed forever. Hiccup had regained some of his strength so he could walk little ways by himself and Astrid was still too shocked to understand what happened.

"Please don't tell anybody." Said Hiccup breaking the silence. Astrid nodded and they both continued to trek through the forest.

They finally made it out of the forest but Hiccup refused to go out while there were so many Vikings doing their daily chores. He walked in the shadows of the trees as Astrid walked on the outside boundary of the forest.

Once they reached Hiccup's house they went through the back door and Hiccup made sure Stoick was still not back from whatever he was doing. Hiccup gestured to Astrid to follow him down into the cellar and Astrid obeyed. Hiccups led the way into the dark damp tunnel that was under the foundation. He made his way to the very back of the cellar and Astrid followed quietly, wondering why Hiccup brought them here.

"This is where dad had me locked up. And this is where I'm staying." Said Hiccup grabbing the chains that were lying on the floor. Astrid grabbed his wrist but was promptly shaken off. Hiccup attached one of the chains to his right wrist and the other to his left. He grabbed a chain hanging on the wall and attached it around his neck. The leaf fell off showing a perfectly healed throat. Astrid looked upon him and gasped. He looked like a slave…in fact he was a slave to himself.

"Hiccup you don't have to do this." Whispered Astrid putting her hand on his shoulder.

"Yes I do Astrid. Don't you see how much pain I've caused? To you, to my dad…Even to myself." Said Hiccup his eyes begging her to understand. She nodded and then hugged him.

"I am so sorry Hiccup." She began. "I wish I could help you but I just can't." Hiccup nodded and gently pushed her away.

"You don't want to ruin that costume of yours more. Do you?" Said Hiccup smiling weakly and he untangled Astrid's makeshift wings away from one another. Astrid shivered at the sounds of chains rattling against the floor, but Hiccup thought she was just cold from the damp air.

"Go on…Don't tell anyone where I am and don't tell my father what happened…Just say that I am taking a walk around the island." Said Hiccup pushing Astrid gently towards the cellar opening. Astrid looked back at him as she reached the door and frowned as she saw him lean his head back against the wall and let out a growling sigh. She quickly left him in there and made her way out of the house and to the academy.


Again please look at the Minbender series and please review!
