Nightwolf stood. "Alright, so this isn't an episode. This will be a mini movie like the Gift of the Night Fury."

Everyone nodded except the new people who weren't there.

EXT. NORTH SEA/BERK—MORNING
A black dragon flies away from Berk leaving small rise of water in its wake. We pan over the small island and zoom towards the plaza. The town's people are setting up some jack-o-lanterns and chatting with each other.

Chatter rose in the theater. "This is on Hallows Eve!" exclaimed a very happy Fishlegs.

Hiccup looked like he was going to be sick. He really didn't want to see him actually be going crazy.

Hiccup (v.o)
"Here on Berk, we have a one day out of the whole year devoted on scaring. Hallows Eve or sat the dragons like to call it, Samhain. We love this holiday so much that we have a two day festival for it."

"Samhain?"

"Yup. I like that name better."

Viking #1
"Oh, how I love Hallows Eve! I'm so happy for today and tomorrow!"

Viking #2
"Right? I love the event where we try to scare each other!"

The two continue their conversation while walking away.

Hiccup (v.o)
"Yeah, I despise this holiday."

"What?" All the audience yelled.

"How can you despise this day?" asked Ruffnut.

"It will be explained!"

"Not that I'm afraid of it, more like people think I go insane during these two days. Hopefully, it's gone and will leave me alone for once."

Many adults groaned knowing full well in what was being said, while the teens and people that aren't from Berk, were confused.

The scene shows five teens and their dragons. They are helping out with decorations. One teen and dragon are missing from the group. Astrid purses her lips as she looks around for the missing teen.

Astrid
"Hey, have any of you seen Hiccup?"

Tuffnut
"I saw him yesterday, does that count?"

"Eh? Sort of," said Hiccup.

All of them stare at him blankly, while Ruffnut nods. The dragons look at each other with concern.

Hookfang
"He was acting quite strange, wasn't he?"

Stormfly
"You're right. Something is obviously wrong."

"Maybe the fact that I'm being spoken of? I don't know?" Hiccup gives them a smile to let them know he's teasing.

Belch
"Guyss, remember it'ss Ssamhain in tomorrow."

Barf
"You are not thinking—"

Meatlug
"No, I'm sure that that's not it, maybe we can talk to him later."

"Oh, but it is."

"Wait, what?"

"Nothing, nothing. Forget I said anything."

"We didn't even" Snotlout cut off. "Oh, you're talking to the drayeah never mind."

The others nod in agreement. Stoick and Gobber look at each other with concern and annoyance when the boy's name is mentioned.

"Oh, well don't I feel loved." He crossed his arms huffing.

No one, but the dragons notice the exchange and wonder what is wrong. Mulch comes up to the group followed by Bucket.

Mulch
"Ah, hello Chief. Are you ready for the festival, for today and tomorrow?"

Stoick
"Ah, of course. Who doesn't love a good scare?"

Gobber laughs and nods. He seems to have a plan. A scream catches their attention to see Fishlegs cowering under Meatlug. They see that the twins are laughing with masks in hand. They all sigh.

Stoick
"Leave the poor boy alone and look for my son. I need to speak with him."

"Huh, I wonder what I did." He muttered. Viggo and Alvin looked at the boy.

The teens agree and fly off.

EXT. WOODS
From something's point of view. The thing watches as the teens fly off before sinking back into the shadows.

Hiccup paled. "Oh, gods, no."

"Son, it's probably nothing. Now stop."

Nightwolf, Siren, and some dragons glared at the man. Toothless comforted his brother.

EXT. SKY—MORNING
They find Hiccup and Toothless doing aerial stunts. Before they can call out to him, they watch has he does a somersault off of the ebony dragon.

"Wow, you really are in insane."

"And have a death wish," added Alvin.

"No, I don't!" Hiccup said in annoyance.

"Yeah, you do," said Ryker.

Their eyes widen and are going to race towards him, when they watch as Toothless spins him.

Astrid
"That boy is going to get himself killed one of these days."

"See?"

"Shush, Gobber."

Fishlegs
"Lay off. He's having fun."

"Thank you 'legs."

While they are talking, they don't notice that the duo are gone until they hear:

Hiccup
"Hey guys!"

They all jump and look up to see Hiccup and Toothless flying upside down. Fishlegs turns green.

As does some of the audience. "Ha! Wimps."

Fishlegs
"How can you stomach that?"

Hiccup just grins and has Toothless to fly in front of them.

Hiccup
"I don't know. I guess I'm more like a dragon than a human."

"Did you really just spill your secret?"

Hiccup chuckled.

Toothless rolls his eyes.

Toothless
"What happened to keeping it a secret?"

Hiccup
"Listen."

Snotlout
"If that was true, I wouldn't be surprised. Now, for the real reason why we're here. Your dad needs to talk to you."

"And you guys never believed it. Haha!"

Hiccup falls onto his back. He stares up at the sky, groaning.

Hiccup
"Fine. Why though?"

Ruffnut
"Maybe to ask why you didn't help with the decorations."

Hiccup sits up and looks at her confused with his head cocked to the side.

Hiccup
"What decorations? I didn't even know there was something special going on."

"Wow, you" Astrid cuts off shaking her head. Nightwolf (begrudgingly and full of complaining) had let her go.

Everyone let out gasps. This confuses Hiccup further. He gives them the "what's wrong" facial expression and hand motion.

Astrid
"It's the Hallows Eve festival! How, in the name of Odin, did you forget?!"

Hiccup pales and looks away into the distance.

Hiccup
"Oh."

"What's wrong Hiccup?"

"You'll find out later."

Astrid isn't the only one to glare.

Snotlout
"'Oh?' That's all you have to say?"

Hiccup shrugs not seeing the huge deal.

Hiccup
"I'm sorry? I don't know, I just—I really despise Hallows Eve. Hate it and hate everything to do about it."

More gasps of horror from everyone even the dragons. They start to bombard him with questions until Toothless roars at them to stop. He can feel his rider's annoyance, granted he isn't the only one annoyed. The teens notice him scowling and draw back a little.

"Wow, you're scary when angered."

"Shut up Viggo!" Nightwolf yelled.

Hiccup
"Look, just because you all like something, doesn't mean I have to like it as well. There's a reason why I despise the holiday, so drop it."

He stares specifically at Astrid. She looks offended that he will seek her out, but before she can retort, he and Toothless are gone in a flash.

Toothless
"Riegan, what was that about?"

Hiccup looks down at the dragon and sighs.

Hiccup
"It started when I was younger . . ."

EXT. BERK

"Wait, we get no story?"

"Nope. Too early."

The teens are in the plaza with worried looks. They go up to Stoick and Gobber who are chatting with each other. Gobber is the first to notice them and can tell something is wrong.

Gobber
"Where's Hiccup?"

Everyone steps back, leaving Astrid on her own. She glares at them before looking at the adults nervously.

"Thanks for the support guys."

"Heh, now you know how I feel."

Astrid
"Hiccup, he um, he got angry with us and flew off."

Stoick sighs and shakes his head mumbling something. He turns back to the gang.

Stoick
"Leave him be for now. I forget sometimes that he wants nothing to do with Hallows Eve."

Astrid
"Why though?"

Ruffnut
"Don't answer Chief. Astrid, Hiccup told us to drop the matter. We should at least respect that. You hate it when we pry, so what makes it okay for you to do the same to him?"

"Thank you Ruff."

"No problem Hic."

Nightwolf had left the building to go fangirl.

(I ship Ruffcup, but don't worry it might not be cannon.)

The adults nod at the girl.

Gobber
"Aye, if the lad finds out that you're trying to find something about him, without his concept, he'll lose all trust that you have built."

"Thank you Gobber."

"She's still going to pry."

"No doubt."

They leave when a woman comes by for some help. Astrid glares at the other girl before storming off with a determined gleam in her eyes. The teens look at each other with knowing gazes. Sighing, they fly off to their own plans.

"Called it!"

The dragons let out their own little laughs.

"Toothless called something and he yelled 'called it,'" explained Hiccup.

EXT. COVEDAY
Hiccup is sketching in the dirt as Toothless is hanging off a bough napping. A rustle catches the boy's attention. His head snaps up. The temperature drops to make the boy shiver. The boy pales and looks straight into the forest with terrified green eyes. They meet red-orange eyes.

Hiccup's breathing became eradicate causing Nightwolf to come back and calm the boy.

Hiccup
"Toothless! Toothless wake up!"

Mortuus
"Naïve little boy. The dragon will not wake."

"Uh, that isn't what I'm thinking is it?"

No response for the chief.

A red-orange Aura wraps around the forest green one. It's voice is raspy and ancient. Like dragging a blade against stone. Hiccup doesn't break contact.

Hiccup (shaking)
"What did you do?"

Mortuus
"I didn't do anything. But I will have my fun."

Then, Mortuus lunges at the boy.

"No!/no!"

Before it lands, Hiccup shoots awake.

"Phew, just a dream."

"That must've been terrifying."

"It is. Especially since . . ." Hiccup trails off shuddering.

The twins and Toothless stand over him with concern filled looks. Hiccup seems to be confused and looks around.

Ruffnut
"Hey, you okay?"

Hiccup
"Hmm? Oh, uh, yeah! I'm fine. Why?"

"Smooth, Hiccup."

"Leave me alone Daggur."

"Just calling it as I see it."

Tuffnut
"We've been trying to wake you for half an hour now. Snot and Fish went to go get your dad and Gothi."

"Half an hour?"

"Yeah, that is one messed up dragon."

"Right?"

"Can you three shut up?" said Astrid.

Hiccup looks over at Toothless who nods in confirmation. Rustling catches their attention. Hiccup jumps to his feet and scans the woods. Green landing on red-orange. He goes stiff and pale.

Tuffnut
"Hic, something wrong?"

The twins look to where he's staring at but see nothing.

"Uh, why can Hiccup see it and not us?"

"Only its victims and other dragons can see it."

Hiccup slowly turns towards them and forces a smile. He knows that they don't see it, so he nods not trusting himself to speak. When he looks back, the eyes are gone.

"That is bad."

Everyone nodded.

Stoick (o.s.)
"Hiccup!"

Hiccup looks to see his father, Gothi, Gobber and the other two boys walk through the boulders with their dragons trailing behind them. Hookfang and Meatlug go over to the Zippleback and Night Fury. Their Auras are shown as Hiccup blocks them out.

Gothi makes Hiccup kneel for her to check on him. After a few minutes, she writes in the dirt.

Gobber
"She says 'that he needs to wear more scarves and eat bark?'"

Some people laugh as it was pretty funny when Gobber misinterprets something.

Gothi whacks him over the head.

Cue more laughing.

Gobber
"Ow! Sorry. He needs to sleep more since he is too exhausted and will start hallucinating."

Hiccup looks at Gothi. She winks at him.

Hiccup turned to Gothi. "You knew?"

Gothi nodded and wrote something. Siren was the one to read it. "She says that you're not the only one who went through the same thing."

He looks at her confused but before he can say anything, a roar cuts through the forest. He and the dragons snap into attention to where the roar was. This dumbfounded the teens, but the two adult men sigh.

Stoick
"Let's get to the village."

They walk out of the cove.

EXT. PLAZANIGHT ONE HALLOWS EVE FESTIVAL
Kids go around jumping at each other or at some adults yelling "boo." They squeal with delight and run off.

The two hostess cooed at the kids.

The dragons all watch amused as some chase the kids in merriment. The teens walk around greeting and helping adults. One teen is again missing much to Astrid's irritation.

Astrid
"Gah! Where is he?"

"Aren't you an impatient little-" Nightwolf trailed off mumbling the rest.

Ruffnut
"Uh, maybe with Toothless. He did say that he loathed everything that had to do with Hallows Eve, so it makes sense that he wouldn't be here, Astrid. Now drop the matter, geez."

"Thank you once again Ruff."

"Again, it's not a problem."

The girl and her brother alongside Fishlegs walk away from the girl. Snotlout looks nervously at the girl and nods slowly before leaving her alone as well.

The four who had left ran into Hiccup. He gives them a fixed smile that they don't catch and he looks around for something or someone.

Ruffnut
"Hiccup, uh, hi?"

Hiccup
"Hi, Ruff. Where's Astrid?"

Tuffnut
"Ditched her."

Hiccup
"Why?"

Toothless
"Who cares? She's too annoying."

"Hiccup!"

"What? I can't control what he says."

Hiccup glares at his dragon before adverting his gaze to the teens in front of him.

Ruffnut
"She's going behind your back to find out why you despise Hallows Eve. Even after we, Gobber and the Chief told specifically not to."

The dragons and the three boys nod in agreement.

Hiccup (scoffs)
"Why am I not surprised? That girl is going to get herself killed. Where's she?"

"Like you're not?"

"I'm a different story."

Astrid
"Hiccup!"

Astrid runs up to them and smiles at him expecting for him to smile back. Noticing his foul mood, it melts off and replaced with a frown.

Toothless
"Oh, come on!"

Astrid
"What's wrong?"

Hiccup
"What's wrong?! I told you, they told you and everyone had told you to leave it alone. Astrid, look, you're not going to get everything you want in life. You really need to learn how to mind your own business."

Stoick walks up to them and sees his son and Astrid glaring at each other.

Stoick
"What's going on? I heard Hiccup shouting."

"Which is very rare."

Many nodded.

Ruffnut
"Astrid won't leave Hiccup alone after you told her to."

Hiccup sighs looking at Toothless.

Hiccup
"It's fine Dad. I was just going to say that Toothless and I are going to go on a flight. Just so you wouldn't worry. We'll back around midnight?"

Toothless nods slowly as if contemplating. Hiccup mounts the dragon and they fly off not waiting for an answer. They watch the boy fly off and continue on with the night.

"You really need to learn how to wait for an answer."

"You really new to learn how to shut your mouth but I don't say anything, Ryker." Hiccup glared.

EXT. TRAINING ACADEMY–MORNING
Hiccup is sitting crossed legged while drawing. Toothless is beside him, napping. The pitter patter of feet catches the boy's attention. He looks up and sees none other than the dragon that haunts him.

Hiccup took a breath and kept his eyes on the dragon.

The dragon is pitch black with some golden designs and red-orange eyes that looks like fire, its head is adorn with frills. It has four wings both looks to be torn, front wings are black and the shredded parts with orange stripes, the back wings are orange with the golden designs. The legs are adorned with orange stripes and golden designs, its claws are ivory. Along its spine running down to the tip of its tail are orange spikes, the tail fins is in an arrow formation that is the color of fire like its eyes.

"That dragon looks cool."

"That dragon has been terrorizing me since I could form coherent thoughts."

Silence.

This time, Toothless jolts awake and ready to protect him. Growling, he keeps his eyes adverted from the beast in front of him.

Toothless
"Don't look him in the eye!"

Hiccuplooksat the stone ground.

Toothless
"So you're the one after my brother?"

Mortuus
"Oh, I never meant any harm to the poor boy. It's just fun to show people their fear. Young Hiccup here is very fun to mess with."

"Never meant any harm my foot."

Hiccup and his dragon both glare equally at the dragon.

Hiccup
"Who are you?"

Mortuus
"The name's Mortuus. I'm what you would call an Ash-winder."

"What does-"

"It means death."

Astrid
"Hiccup!"

Hiccup and Toothless look up. Astrid runs towards them.

"Oh no."

Astrid
"What was that? Where did it go?"

"Wait, you saw it?"

Hiccup looks on shocked. He can't say anything as he is frozen. Toothless nudged him out of his stupor.

Hiccup
"Y-You saw it?"

Astrid looks at him weirdly.

Astrid
"Of course I saw it. Why? Was I not supposed to?"

Hiccup shakes his head.

Hiccup
"No, not really."

Astrid glares.

"Dadada I'm dead."

Astrid
"Oh, now I see. You're keeping this dragon a secret because you think that we can't handle it."

"What? No! I would never do anything like that!"

Hiccup
"What? No. That isn't even close."

Astrid
"Oh, and what is?"

Hiccup shrugs helplessly.

Astrid
"I get it. You don't want us around to distract you. I'm so sorry, Mr. I-can-train-dragons-better-than-anyone-because-I'm-the-first-ever-dragon-trainer. Well, guess what? Just because you're the first one doesn't mean anything."

"Actually it does. He is a hybrid and can learn many secrets from them," said Valka.

She stomps off fuming in anger not letting him have the chance to explain. Hiccup looks at Toothless with sadden eyes.

Toothless
"It's okay, Riegan. Her pride has been wounded. That's all."

Hiccup looks uneasy but nods. He's right. The dragon stalks both brothers before disappearing into the woods

EXT. VILLAGE- DUSK- HALLOWS EVE
The Vikings are having the time of their lives as they wear costumes, making fun of each other, and drinking. Hiccup in his hybrid form (ears, wings, and tail with some scales around the eyes and nape) looks around at them with his back against the wall.

"That's a great plan!"

"Thanks, Fishlegs."

The gang see him and rush up to him. They all are wearing costumes of their dragons. They look at his and look on in awe.

Fishlegs
"That's an awesome costume, Hiccup! So authentic!"

"Because it is," the chubby boy grumbled.

Hiccup
"Thank you Fishlegs."

They all start talking and cutting up like always. Astrid comes up. She too is wearing a costume of a nadder. She glares at the heir who looks away. She starts talking to the others. They notice her behavior but don't question it as Hiccup looks over at Toothless.

Hiccup
"Well, I'm not surprised that she hates me."

"I don't hate you, just angry."

Toothless
"Neither am I."

Hiccup sighs. The others look at him but he shakes his head.

Hiccup
"I'm going to go and get some rest. I'm too tired right now."

Astrid sneers at his back.

Astrid
"Too tired from training that dragon?"

Hiccup stops dead in his tracks as the teens seem to be interested about it.

Hiccup
"Just stop. You need to learn how to know the details before you accuse someone."

This makes all of them more curious, but stop as he continues on his way. Toothless glares at the blonde and growls before following his rider.

"Ha! Toothless really doesn't like you."

His face was introduced to fist and floor.

EXT. HADDOCK HOUSE-NIGHT
There was a lot of muttering following him. Each step he will appear even more shaken before putting a hand on Toothless head to comfort him. At the door, he scans the woods searching for something.

This caused everyone, and I mean everyone, toshiver.

Hiccup
"Let's get inside. Hopefully, it won't be able to get to us."

Toothless nods and follows him. Once inside, Hiccup sighs.

Hiccup
"Mortuus really needs to leave me be. I mean, years upon years of terrorizing me? Doesn't that get old?"

Toothless shrugs.

Stoick
"Doesn't what get old?"

The two jump and spin around to see Stoick and Gobber sitting at the fire. Hiccup looks at Toothless who shakes his head.

"Why do I feel like there's going to be an argument?"

"Viggo, if you were here the last time, you'd understand."

Hiccup turned away before the man could say anything.

Hiccup
"Nothing Dad."

Gobber
"Who's Mortuus?"

Hiccup shakes his head.

Hiccup
"No one Gobber."

They look at him with a "we're not buying it" face.

Toothless shakes his head as Hiccup shrugs helplessly. The two adults watch in confusion and wonder. Hiccup sighs and shakes his head.

"Wow, you really can understand them well."

Hiccup shrugged.

Viggo and Ryker shared a conspiring look.

Hiccup
"Do you remember all those years that I saw a dragon on S-Hallows Eve?"

"You were about to let Samhain slip weren't you?"

Cue glare from angry hybrid.

Stoick
"I was hoping you'd stop with this, Hiccup. It's not real."

"Oh, but it is," murmured Hiccup.

Toothless nods his head vigorously agreeing with Hiccup.

Stoick
"Hiccup, please just stop. You're old enough and smart enough to know what's real and what's not. Now, drop the matter. I'll be in the village."

"Well, nothing changes."

Hiccup
"But I'm telling the truth."

Stoick
"Hiccup, enough. There is no dragon after you. You made peace with them."

Hiccup
"Not with all of them."

"That is true. There are some that still try to kill him."

Stoick
"Hiccup, you've kept this up since you were six, this has gone on long enough. Stop it."

Hiccup
"Listen to me, Dad!"

Hiccup looks stressed and worn out.

Wow, this is showing many sides of Hiccup, I've never seen, thought Viggo. He came up with an idea. Once, he is sent back to his time, he will move onto the plan.

An argument is brewing between the two as Gobber watches from the sidelines.

Stoick
"Enough Hiccup! How does this not get old for you? The same dragon for years and every single time you 'see' it, it's not there. I'm done with this."

No comment. Hiccup was too busy trying to keep Toothless from killing Stoick.

Hiccup growls, but covers it up with a cough. He takes out his sketchbook and flips to a page.

Hiccup
"Then how would you explain this? Dad, I have loads of drawings about that dragon! How would you explain it?"

Stoick
"You made it up son! I love you, I really do, but you need to stop with this!"

"I'm not that talented. I have to see something to draw it."

Gobber takes the sketch and looks at it. Toothless growls threateningly at Stoick every time he raises his voice.

Hiccup
"But Dad, it appeared again and Astrid saw it. Now, she's angry with me thinking that I'm keeping it a secret as I 'train' it. I'm not. I swear I'm not! That dragon, it's not normal!"

"You got that right," said Heather. Many people jumped forgetting that she was there. Dam, she was quiet.

Stoick sighs.

Stoick
"Hiccup, until I get evidence of this dragon other than a sketch and some assumptions, I can't do much about it."

"Maybe believing your child could, I don't know, keep him safe," said Heather.

Hiccup groans and glares at his father.

Hiccup
"Ask Gothi. She knows!"

"She does and has always," muttered Hiccup.

No response.

Hiccup
"When have I ever LIED?!"

"Exactly!" Hiccup throws his hands out. "Exactly. Thank you!"

Stoick and the other two flinch at the boy's anger as he stomps off into the woods, leaving Toothless behind. He stares at his rider's fading figure before turning to the chief with a glare.

"Well, you're screwed," said Daggur.

"Eh, wouldn't be the first time I've come face to face."

Gobber
"Ye know Stoick, the lad has never lied. Why would he lie about this? We used to think it was for attention, but now we know that he hates being the center of attention. What would he gain from this?"

"Exactly. What would I gain?"

No response.

With that he hobbles out of the house. The dragon sighs and curls in the corner. Stoick looks back at the sketch.

EXT. WOODS
Hiccup is walking by himself in the woods. He seems to be muttering something. There is no one with him which would be a rare sight to anyone when usually Toothless or another dragon or person is with him.

"I have a horrible feeling," muttered Valka. She watched with anticipation as she watched her son walk through the woods.

"Mom, I'll be fine." I hope.

Hiccup
"Why can't Dad see that I wouldn't make something up like this? What would I even gain other than attention? He knows that I despise it, so why?"

"I'm sorry son."

"It's fine Dad."

Stoick wanted to argue but Hiccup is stubborn and the argument would go nowhere, so he kept his mouth shut.

Hiccup abruptly stops. His eyes scan the woods as his ears pick up on sounds. He is about to turn and leave when something pounces on him.

Someone screams as others yell, "Hiccup!"

Looking up, he finds Mortuus on top of him. He grins and shows his sharp, jagged, pearl white teeth. Hiccup shuts his eyes.

"Good," muttered the dragons.

Toothless whimpered and rubbed his head against Hiccup's leg.

Mortuus
"Come now, Riegan. You know you want to look me in the eyes, don't you?"

"Don't answer!"

"Toothless, I'll be fine. You'll save me."

Toothless gave a nod but it didn't stop the worry.

Hiccup doesn't answer as he struggles under the weight of the beast. Mortuus isn't happy and bites the boy's shoulder causing his eyes to fly open.

"No!/no!"

Hiccup rubbed his shoulder wincing. "I am so not looking forward to that."

Mortuus takes this advantage holds the boy's stare.

Daggur looked over at Hiccup. "You have the worst luck."

Hiccup nodded.

Hiccup's face is lack of blood as he starts to shake and thrash and scream in terror.

Stoick gripped his chair as some Vikings turned away not wanting to see this. The screaming made them want to rip their ears off and the sight made them want to gouge out their eyes.

He is full of fear which fills the dragon's hunger. Blood is slowly seeping out of the boy's wound, but with the thrashing, it's getting worse. The dragon's white claws dig into the boy's chest drawing a lot more crimson liquid. Hiccup let's out another painful and fearful scream.

The dragons cowered. They didn't like the boy this way. They felt horrible that they couldn't help.

HADDOCK HOUSE
Toothless shoots awake startling Stoick. Upon noticing his face, he frowns. Toothless nods at the door. The chief getting the message opens it and the dragon rushes off. This act confused him before realization dawned.

"Good," muttered Valka.

"See? Toothless will get there in time."

"You have too much trust in that beast," commented Alvin.

The dragons growled.

"This 'beast' is the reason why I'm still alive. So if I were you, I'd be quiet." Hiccup glared.

Alvin huffed and rolled his eyes.

Stoick
"Hiccup."

He rushes off tailing the dragon. The teens watch this and walk up to them.

Toothless
"Riegan! He's in trouble! Mortuus has him."

"Wow, how did he know?"

"He's smart enough to put two and two together."

The teens can see the frantic look on Toothless's face.

Tuffnut
"What's wrong with T?"

Fishlegs
"Where's Hiccup?"

That one question is enough to send the teens to mount their dragons and they head off.

"Yay, I'm loved," said Hiccup.

EXT. WOODS
Hiccup is bloodied and barely alive as more blood pools around him. The Ash-Winder licks the boy's cold pale cheek.

Toothless growled menacingly. "He DARES lick Riegan! I shall kill him!"

"Toothless don't. I don't care, just not yet."

"What did he say?" Heather asked.

"He promised death to Mortuus."

Heather nodded. "Remind me not to get on his bad side."

Mortuus
"Your fear and blood taste quite amazing. Too bad this is where our fun e–"

A plasma blast knocks him off the boy.

"Take that!"

"Toothless no."

"Toothless yes." Toothless gave a smug smirk making Hiccup laugh and rub his head.

"You're so weird."

"Yeah, yeah, but you love me."

Hiccup rolled his eyes.

The humans especially Stoick are frozen in shock. Stoick remembers the sketch that Hiccup made.

Stoick (whisper)
"That's the dragon."

"Ha! I told you!"

"You're dying."

"Pfft, I-" Hiccup looked at the screen. "True."

"You really are insane," said Alvin.

"I'd love to insult you, but it goes beyond your intelligence."

Alvin grumbled a few inappropriate words.

The teens hear this and look at him questionably. Hookfang bucks Snotlout before rushing over to the wounded dragon trainer.

"Hey, Hookfang!" He turned to Hiccup. "This is all your fault."

"M-my fault? What? It's not like I can control every dragon. They just choose to."

Snotlout glared. "Whatever."

This brings everyone out of their stupor and they help the boy. Stormfly and Hookfang help Toothless.

When the dragon gets the fact that it's a losing battle it says:

Mortuus
"There will be a day when his fears come to reality and he will regret ever defying me!"

"Defying you? When did I ever defy you?"

"You know he won't answer, right?"

Hiccup sighed and stayed silent. "I know."

With that the dragon is gone. Stoick takes his son's limp form, but Snotlout takes him from his uncle.

Snotlout
"It'd be best if I take him on Hookfang."

Reluctantly, Stoick agrees.

Stoick
"Oh, son. This is all my I'm so sorry."

Toothless nudges the man then proceeds to shake his head telling him it is not his fault.

"Thank you Toothless," said Stoick.

Toothless nodded.

Stoick
"Thank you. If it wasn't for you, my son would be dead."

Toothless purrs and nods. They leave for the village.

The audience watched in silence. They didn't know if the heir would be okay or not.

EXT. GOTHI'S HUT.
Toothless is pacing as the dragons watch him. The teens are worried about their friend that they are quiet.

Toothless
"Ugh! I can't take it anymore! What's going to happen to Riegan?"

"Don't worry Toothless, I'll be fine. You got there in time."

This didn't stop Toothless from worrying.

Hookfang
"Calm down, Toothless. After what happened with that Ash-Winder, it could be a while until they tell us. Let's just hope that he isn't traumatized or then it'd be tough."

"Let's just hope to the gods that Hiccup will be fine and nothing like that happens."

Stoick comes out of the hut.

Stoick
"He'll be fine. Just don't do anything too drastic. Hiccup is a bit unstable. Whatever that dragon did made Hiccup a bit jittery."

They nod and walk in. Hiccup has his back against the wall. His eyes are clouded over with a small fear, which is slowly fading away. Once he sees Toothless and the dragons, it completely vanishes.

"Wow," whispered Gobber, "the dragons really do good for the boy."

Stoick nodded.

Toothless licks his cheek and gives him a smile.

Astrid
"Hiccup, I am so sorry."

"It's fine."

"But-"

"I said, it's fine."

"Way too forgiving for your own good."

Hiccup looks between the two.

Toothless
"Stoick told them about Mortuus. About how the reason you despise Samhain is because of that sorry excuse of a dragon."

Hiccup nods while gazing at his hands.

Hiccup
"The Ash-Winder is a mystery class dragon that shows one's greatest fear when they look into the eyes of their victim."

"We need to write this down," said Fishlegs.

Hiccup nodded.

Astrid
"What did it show you?"

He looks up and shakes his head.

Ruffnut
"Hiccup, you don't have to tell us if you're not ready."

Hiccup smiled.

Thegang nod in agreement. He smiles and nods. Taking a breath, he points to the door and lays back down going to sleep. They respectively leave after giving the boy one last glance.

"I'm sorry, but it's best if I don't tell you."

They nodded. "It's fine."

EXT. VLLAGE–DAYS LATER NOON
Hiccup is walking in the village with the help of Toothless. He rolled his eyes and nudged Toothless who retorts with a nudge to the side.

Astrid
"Hey Hiccup. How are you doing?"

Hiccup
"Hi. I'm good. Thanks for asking."

Fishlegs
"Hiccup! Can you help me fill out the chapter on the Ash-Winder?"

Hiccup nods.

The scene cuts to Hiccup and Fishlegs talking and laughing at something Hiccup says.

"Hiccup's hilarious."

"I know I am."

"Only you'd understand the joke."

"Maybe if you grow a few brain cells it'll help."

Hiccup(v.o)
"I've learned that fear can be helpful yet be harmful. I just need to have hope for the better and I know, I have friends and a dad who loves me for me. Those dark days ahead may be unknown."

The audience, except the few, smiled. Viggo just needed to find this dragon and force it to help him.

The riders smile at Hiccup who nods back with a huge grin.

Hiccup(v.o)
"But that doesn't mean I won't have people there with me every step of the way."

Fade to white.

"There y'all have it. Hallows Eve special." Nightwolf grinned.

"I despised it."

"Yeah, I know you would but hey, at least it won't be terrorizing you."

"True."

For long, thought Viggo.


Okay so sorry if it wasn't good and for the lack of reactions. I will probably go back and add some, but this is what you'll get for now. Have a safe Halloween.
