A/N

So you know that story I was telling you about with the terror like…who knows how long ago? Well IT'S DONE! So I had several good requests BUT I decided to wait until this one got finished because I finally got inspired to work on this one again. Once again my super beta Irako helped make this one better. Sorry this took so long, me and Irako where both very busy and we both took awhile on this (me writing and her editing it). So here we FINALLY go…


Toothless used to hate Monstrous Nightmares, they think they deserved Hiccup more than a crippled Night Fury. They had it in there head that they where the best dragon. But now, Toothless wasn't sure. Terrible Terrors, especially one in particular, had recently been the object of his loathing. He'd never thought that would happen until Hiccup brought one home.

Hiccup was always bringing sick or injured dragons' home to take better care of them. It bothered Toothless, a lot, but he dealt with it. Hiccup was just too nice for his own good, and Toothless knew that he meant well. Hiccup would spend days with those dragons and almost completely forget about Toothless. Those days were the worst because he was stuck on the ground, watching Hiccup give other dragon's fish, scratch them and just do everything he was supposed to do with Toothless and only Toothless.

This Terror though had crossed the line though. It had managed to, in less than a day, go from just mildly annoying to completely unacceptable. According to Hiccup, this Terror's wing was broken, so he needed special care. He took it everywhere with him, even to the forge, which had once been the only place were no other dragons where allowed. It rode on Hiccup's shoulder, acting like it was Hiccup's dragon instead of Toothless.

Toothless glowered at the Terror while Hiccup hand-fed it cod. Hiccup even allowed the Terror to sit on the table while they ate. Hiccup never let Toothless sit on the table. The Terror looked at Toothless with a little smirk on its face, like it knew exactly how annoyed Toothless was. Toothless growled at it softly as it ate more cod, being bold enough to steal some of Hiccup's food. The worst part was Hiccup just laughed and told it to stop! If Toothless did that, he'd get thrown outside. Toothless's growling got louder as he continued to watch the Terror, then started snarling when it hoped down and curled up in Hiccup's lap. Toothless roared at the Terror and was satisfied when it jumped and ran away in fright, but it was short lived.

"Toothless!" Hiccup scolded, standing up and dragging Toothless outside. "Bad dragon!" Hiccup slammed the door in Toothless's face. The Night Fury ran over to the window to look inside, feeling a whirlwind of emotions. There was fear and anger but most importantly, betrayal. Hiccup was calling to the Terror in a soothing voice. It soon creped out of its hiding place and crawled onto Hiccup's lap. Then Hiccup scooped it up and let it climb onto his shoulder. Toothless paced in front of the house angrily, unable to do anything else.

Toothless wondered why Hiccup was suddenly so attached to this dragon. Was the Terror there to catch Hiccup when the boy stumbled? No. Did he comfort Hiccup through the nightmares? Definitely not! Toothless really hated being ignored because while Hiccup tended to the dragon, Toothless was stuck doing nothing. He relied on Hiccup to live. Not just for getting food or even flying, but Toothless didn't know what he'd do without Hiccup. Hiccup was Toothless's only friend. He loved Hiccup more than anything and yet the boy spent every day with dozens of other dragons. Toothless would rather die than live without Hiccup. Yes, he'd spent most of his life without Hiccup but [he hadn't known the boy had existed then. Now he was much happier being with Hiccup.

Toothless paced in front of the house angrily, occasionally looking in the window to glare at the intruding dragon. Hiccup cuddled it and fed it and scratched it where he should only scratch Toothless. Toothless wished Hiccup could see how much Toothless loved Hiccup and how much the dragon hated it when Hiccup was with other dragons, but Hiccup could never understand him. As the sun started to set, Hiccup finally let Toothless in with a warning.

"Behave, Toothless." Toothless growled slightly at the Terror but made no move to pounce [on] him. Hiccup sighed in relief and went to get Toothless's dinner. Toothless greedily ate his food, glaring at the little dragon if it got too close and for once Hiccup didn't protest. He simply watched the two dragons wearily. Hiccup tiredly dragged himself up the stairs into his room, the Terror riding on his shoulder and Toothless grudgingly following behind. Hiccup placed the Terror on a small bed that he saved for his dragon guests while Toothless crawled onto his own bed. Hiccup pulled off his prosthetic leg and laid down, falling asleep instantly.

Toothless looked over at his Hiccup sadly, cooing softly. Hiccup hadn't been sleeping well the past few nights. He'd wake up in a cold sweat, clutching his stump in agony and unable to get to sleep again. Toothless hoped that tonight would be different.


Toothless was woken by Hiccup's cries. The Night Fury slithered over to Hiccup and started to prod him, trying to wake him up. Hiccup woke up unexpectedly and sat up so quickly that he hit Toothless. Hiccup was breathing heavily, looking around the room frantically. Toothless jumped up on the bed and started licking Hiccup's face. Hiccup hugged Toothless tightly, burying his head against the Night Fury's cool scales. Toothless wrapped his wings around Hiccup in a dragon hug.

Toothless noticed the Terror cringing in the corner. It started snarling, trying to be more intimidating. Toothless glared at the Terror, making it go silent. That was another reason Toothless hated other dragons, they all became afraid. Whenever Hiccup woke up from a nightmare like this, the dragons would suddenly be scared of Hiccup. They would hide from him and not listen to him. Hiccup would eventually calm them down, but it always stung Hiccup whenever it happened, and it happened every time a dragon stayed on a night Hiccup had nightmares which was most.

"I'm sorry, Toothless… you of all people-well, dragons- deserve a good night's sleep." Toothless rumbled deep in his chest soothingly. Hiccup slumped against Toothless, sighing contently. They sat there like that for a while, Toothless rumbling gently, Hiccup leaning against the Night Fury. Slowly, reluctantly, Hiccup pulled himself away from Toothless and laid back down, shutting his eyes in a futile attempt to try and sleep. Toothless wrapped his paws around Hiccup like he did when he saved the boy from Green Death, still rumbling soothingly.

Toothless then realized that the Terror wasn't in the corner anymore and looked down and saw the Terror on the floor next to the bed watching Toothless and Hiccup. The Terror had seen how calm The Night Fury was around Hiccup, despite the screaming and had come a little closer to see. As Hiccup drifted off to sleep, the Terror determinedly jumped on the bed. Toothless glowered at the Terror, silently telling it to go away, but the Terror ignored Toothless.

Toothless saw that the Terror still looked shaken up by Hiccup's reaction. It inspected Hiccup slowly, watching the boy sleeping peacefully. The Terror walked over next to Hiccup and lay down next to him purring comfortingly. The Terror kept looked up at Toothless worriedly and twitched slightly every time Hiccup moved, but it refused to leave its spot by Hiccup.

Toothless watched as the terror snuggled closer to Hiccup, completely unafraid. Hiccup was asleep again, his breathing even. Toothless hated other dragons trying to take away his Hiccup. He even hated it when they got to close to Hiccup, but for once; he found that he didn't mind this little dragon being there. Yes, Toothless would be ecstatic to see it go, but right now, this dragon didn't seem so bad anymore. How could he hate anything that cared about his Hiccup like he did? Yeah, it wasn't so bad.
