Hey guys, I have to be quick. I really hope you enjoy this last chapter and don't forget to review. Bye!
DISSOLVE TO:
A whiteout of ash. And through it comes...
STOICK
Hiccup? Hiccup!?
Stoick appears, searching desperately. Everything is
scorched. Even the ground is smoking from the terrible heat.
"there's no way Hiccup could survive that" Snoutlout said sadly
Tuff punches him, as if to say Dude, not now
Astrid was crying silently, not wanting to believe the truth. Hiccup was dead. Suddenly, Hiccup put an arm around her and pulled her close
"how can you be so calm about this?" she asked. He shrugged
"because crying won't solve anything"
Stoick's hands is covering his face, trying so, very hard not to cry. His son was gone.
STOICK (CONT'D)
Hiccup!? Son!?
Through the ash, Stoick the motionless silhouette of
Toothless.
STOICK (CONT'D)
(GRAVE)
Hiccup.
Everyone gasped and Stoick looked up
He hurries to the dragon's side. Toothless is roughed up, but
conscious. His scorched saddle, however, is vacant.
Stoick looks to the sky in despair. He buckles at the knees, overwhelmed by the loss.
STOICK (CONT'D)
Oh son...I did this...
Astrid pushes through the crowd, her eyes welling up.
Followed by Gobber. They flank Stoick as he kneels, slumped over.
Behind them, a ring of Vikings form, keeping a respectful
distance. As the dust and smoke clear, a ring of wild
dragons can also be seen, gathering just behind and between
the Vikings.
Toothless stirs and groggily rolls his head toward Stoick.
Their eyes meet.
STOICK (CONT'D)
I'm so sorry...
Toothless unfolds his wings, revealing Hiccup, unconscious,
clutched safely against his chest. Stoick's eyes widen.
Everyone gasped again, a little spark of hope filling everyone's hearts.
STOICK (CONT'D)
Hiccup.
He scoops Hiccup into his arms. Listens to his heart. Bursts
into relieved laughter.
STOICK (CONT'D)
He's alive!
The crowd roared, followed by Toothless. Astrid started sobbing in relief and embaced Hiccup. Then, much to the boy's surprise, she grabbed his face gently and kissed him on the lips.
Astrid pulled away and smiled when she saw Hiccup's dazed expression.
The teens were also cheering and they clapped Hiccup on the back, obviously relieved.
Yay smiled when she saw everyone so happy.
(TO TOOTHLESS)
You brought him back alive!
The crowd roars. Followed by the dragons. The Vikings look
around to find themselves surrounded.
Stoick leans close to Toothless, meeting him eye to eye.
STOICK (CONT'D)
(PRIVATELY)
Thank you... for saving my son.
Gobber looks Hiccup up and down.
GOBBER
Well, you know... most of him.
Stoick glances back at him. Gobber shrugs, redirecting his
eyes toward...
"Yay? What does he mean?" Hiccup asked
"ehhh" Yay looked at her shoes, and tucked her hair behind her ear
INT. STOICK'S HOUSE - DAY
CLOSE ON
HICCUP, asleep, his head on a pillow. Healing scars on his
face show that maybe a week or two have passed.
Toothless hovers over him, WHINING and GRUMBLING impatiently.
Hiccup stirs. Opens his eyes.
HICCUP
(GROGGY)
Oh, hey Toothless.
Toothless excitedly nuzzles and nudges Hiccup.
HICCUP (CONT'D)
Okay, okay! I'm happy to see you
too, bud. Now just-
Toothless steps on his groin, causing Hiccup to sit BOLT UPRIGHT with a YELP.
He looks around, confounded. He's in his bed, moved beside
the fire pit on the main floor of his house.
HICCUP (CONT'D)
I'm in my house.
(re: Toothless, leaning over him, excited)
You're in my house.
Toothless TEARS around the room, knocking things over, far
too big for the space.
Everyone laughed at Toothless playful attitued
HICCUP (CONT'D)
Uh...does my dad know you're in here?!
Toothless pauses at the foot of the bed, tongue wagging. He
eyes the rafters... and LEAPS UP onto them, brimming with 'happy dog' energy.
HICCUP (CONT'D)
(DISTRESSED)
Okay, okay - no Toothless! Aw,
come on...
Hiccup shifts to get out of bed... then pauses... sensing
that something is wrong.
He peels back the covers slowly. What he sees startles,
horrifies, and overwhelms him - all at once.
Everyone looked at the screen, eager to find out what had made Hiccup look like that all of the sudden.
ON THE BARE FLOOR
His booted foot touches down. Followed by a mechanical prosthetic in place of his second leg. It's an ingenious spring-loaded replacement, made of wood and iron. Toothless lands by the bed and approaches calmly, sniffing
the new leg.
A lot of people gasped and started muttering. Hiccup went pale and Yay stopped the movie.
"hiccup" Astrid called softly "are you okay?" he didn't resond immediately
"y-yeah I'm fine" he finally said
"are you sure?" Yay asked
"y-yes" Toothless purred, Hiccup smiled "hey look bud" he pointed at the screen
"one day, I'll be like you" Toothless jumped on the boy and started licking
"ugh Toothless! That's discusting! Stop!" he laughed
Once Toothless made sure that Hiccup had had a good bath, Yay pushed the play button.
He raises his eyes to meet Hiccup's, seemingly aware of what Hiccup is going through. Hiccup braces himself on the bedpost and tries to stand on
it. He winces and stifles the pain...
HICCUP (CONT'D)
Okay...okay...
... but STUMBLES with the first step. Toothless catches
Hiccup's fall with his head... and slowly lifts him up, stabilizing him.
HICCUP (CONT'D)
Thanks bud.
Hiccup leans on him like a crutch. They take a few steps
together.
Their missing parts form a poetic silhouette as they make
their way toward the door.
Hiccup pries it open (as he did in the opening scene), revealing a MONSTROUS NIGHTMARE flapping outside the door.
Hiccup YELPS and slams the door closed. He turns to
Toothless, alarmed.
Everyone groaned. Another raid.
HICCUP (CONT'D)
Toothless? Stay here, bud.
Hiccup pauses... and cracks the door open again. He peeks
outside, his eyes widening. He allows to door to swing open,
revealing...
... the Monstrous Nightmare, carrying Snotlout on its back.
"What" Ruff said
"the" Tuff said
"heck?" Fishlegs finished
SNOTLOUT
Come on guys, get ready! Hold on
tight! Here we go!
A class of newbie dragon riders follow him through frame on a
variety of dragons, pulling back the curtain on an amazing
vista in which:
Vikings and dragons mill about by the dozen, basking on the
rooftops, weaving along the plaza. No one seems upset, there
isn't a sword in sight.
Under the framework of a MASSIVE BARN, a Nadder BLASTS fire
onto a metal brace. It steps back to let a Viking hammer it
into shape. Nearby, a Gronkle lands, carrying a tree trunk in
his mouth. He shows a Viking what he's found. The Viking pats
his head. Another Viking backs a Zippleback into a stall to
check it for size.
Hiccup takes a step outside, finding Stoick waiting for him
on the step.
HICCUP
I knew it. I'm dead.
Stoick laughs.
"No, but you gave it your best shot" Stoick said, smiling
STOICK
No, but you gave it your best shot.
He puts his arm around Hiccup, steadying him. He gestures to
the transformed village.
STOICK (CONT'D)
So? What do you think?
Hiccup just shrugs, amazed.
Below, the plaza, villagers take notice.
VIKING #1
Hey look! It's Hiccup!
They rush over, surrounding him with a hero's welcome.
VIKING #2
Hiccup, how you doin' mate?
VIKING #3
It's great to see you up and about.
STOICK
(SWEETLY)
Turns out all we needed was a
little more of...
(GESTURES NON-SPECIFICALLY AT HICCUP)
... this.
HICCUP
(PLAYING ALONG)
You just gestured to all of me.
GOBBER (O.S.)
Well. Most of you.
Gobber pushes through the crowd, beaming proudly.
GOBBER (CONT'D)
(re: the prosthetic leg)
That bit's my handiwork. With a
little Hiccup flare thrown in.
Think it'll do?
HICCUP
(bittersweet, coming toTERMS)
I might make a few tweaks.
Yay laughed "trust me, you made more than 'a few tweaks'"
Astrid appears and jabs Hiccup in the arm. Hiccup recoils
with a grumble.
ASTRID
That's for scaring me.
HICCUP
(PROTESTING)
What, is it always going to be this
way? Cause I...
She grabs him aggressively... then kisses him. Hoots and
hollers follow.
Hiccup blushed as Astrid rolled her eyes
"you are such a dork" she said exaspearated. She grabbed his tunic and kissed him again.
Hoots and hollers were heard and Yay laughed .
HICCUP (CONT'D)
... could get used to it.
Gobber presents Hiccup with a rebuilt saddle, rigging, and
tail.
GOBBER
Welcome home.
Suddenly, Toothless pounces on the crowd, crushing several
unsuspecting Vikings under his weight.
VIKING
Night Fury, get down!
"see! I told you they would never learn" Hiccup told Yay, who laughed
Toothless eyes the new tail excitedly, tongue wagging. Amidst the groans and grumbles, Hiccup and Astrid exchange a sheepish grin.
CLOSE ON
Hiccup's prosthetic foot, snapping into the modified stirrup.
The two pieces click together, forming a single shape.
Astride Toothless, he's whole again. He rotates the pedal.
The new tail opens. Bright red with a skull and Viking horns
emblazoned on it. Hiccup approves.
"Nice" Hiccup said
CUT BACK TO REVEAL...
Hiccup and Toothless, saddled up and ready to fly. Astrid
backs her Nadder into position.
HICCUP
(TO TOOTHLESS)
You ready?
Toothless SNORTS an excited 'yes!'
From his mount, Hiccup looks out over the changed world.
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)
This... is Berk.
(BEAT)
It snows nine months of the year...
and hails the other three.
They LEAP into the bright blue sky, together as one. Astrid
follows, giving chase.
HICCUP (CONT'D)
Any food that grows here is tough
and tasteless. The people that grow
here are even more so.
Everyone laughed, not ofended at all.
Hiccup and Astrid race their dragons through the village -
under eaves, over rooftops, down cliff-sides, and between
ship masts. It's a high energy, romantic dance of sorts.
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)
The only upsides are the pets.
While other places have...ponies or
parrots, we have...
Their fellow recruits join them as they take to the open sky,
rocketing far above the village. The Northern sky swirls with
blazing, multicolored dragons.
Hiccup and Toothless break from the pack, spinning into the
blinding sun.
HICCUP (V.O.) (CONT'D)
(PROUDLY)
... dragons.
The screen went black and everyone cheered and clapped.
Yay stood up and signaled averyone to silence. Eventually, the vikings calmed down.
"well guys, I have to send you back now, and I have to warn you, you won't remember anything" everyone started muttering sadly
Hiccup spoke up "will we see you again?" she smiled
"probably, but it might take sometime"
"why?"
"well, the battery of the remote-"
"what is a battery?"
"oh, well, a battery is like, the power source, and it takes a lot of time to get the energy back, so until it gets it's energy back, I can't bring you here" even with this explanation, only Gobber and Hiccup understood.
"alright everyone, I need you to stand and come close, if the remote doesn't sense one of you, you'll be stuck here" they all stood close to each other but before she pushed the button, she ran and hugged Hiccup tightly
"I'll miss you" Yay said
"me too" he said. She laughed
"no you won't, you won't remember me"
Then, she gave Astrid a sisterly hug and Toothless licked her
"Goodbye everyone! See you soon!" she pushed the button and everyone dissapeared.
"I hope" she added silently. Then she went to her living room and started at her enormous house. She was alone. Again. But she knew that not for long.
