(A/N) Hey guys, new fan-shot here. Here's your story in A timeline.
Idea timeline: Hiccup is 18 almost 19 in this. Takes place in the episode 'No dragon left behind'.
Main idea of the story: What if not only Stormfly was thought to be poisoned, but Hiccup and Toothless were poisoned by the Slither Wing dragons. The poison doesn't take effect as fast as it did on Astrid because Astrid ran causing her heart to beat much faster than normal. Astrid and the others do everything they can to save there leader before it's to late.
Warnings/Details: Major spoilers for season 5 of dragons RTTE. Poisoned Hiccup! Rated K+ Maybe T i'll have to see but most likely K+. Betrothed in other words very close Hiccstrid! Poisoned Toothless.
Also: In this version of the episode 'No dragon left behind' Slither wing venom doesn't work on another person if it has already come in contact with someone's skin, so Astrid can't pull her hole 'Punch the Slither Wing so Fishlegs can get the poison off her hand to help make an antidote' move.
Summery:
Hiccup and the other riders have taken Garfenyarg the death song to A new island to live because he's getting to dangerous for the dragons on the edge. What happens when A new dragon called the Slither Wing poisons one of our favorite riders and his dragon? Will Garf survive being dragon napped by Slither Wings? Answers await!
"Uh, is anybody there?!" Hiccup called out after hearing something in the bushes on the island they took Garf the death song to. Suddenly A huge snake like creature came out of the bushes. Hiccup and Astrid looked at Fishlegs annoyed.
"What? Oh like I knew giant snakes were on the island, those are my favorite." He said sarcastically. One of the snakes opened A pair of giant wings. "Those are not snakes, those are Slither Wing dragons!" Hiccup shouted. "Slither Wing dragons!? Not Slither Wing dragons! What's A slither wing dragon?" Snotlout had to ask.
"There poisonous, very poisonous! And dragons!" Hiccup shouted, dodging A blast of poison. "Don't touch there skin, it's covered in well-" "Poison?!" Snotlout cut Fishlegs off, taking off his helmet to shield himself from A poisonous blast.
"Exactly! You touch these guys and you are dead by the next moon!" Fishlegs flew away from the snake like dragons. One of the Slither Wings lunged at Stormfly, knocking Astrid off of her. The dragon was about to kill Astrid who was sitting in the dirt, when Hiccup and Toothless flew in to grab her. "That was to close!" Hiccup yelled, before seeing Stormfly and Garfenyarg fly away from the Slither Wings.
"Stormfly!" Astrid shouted after they finally fought off the dragons. "Common guys!" Hiccup and the others flew to find the two missing dragons, Astrid on the back of Toothless. When they got there, Stormfly was in A Death Song amber cocoon.
"Easy girl." Hiccup ran over to Stormfly so he could break the death song amber with his flame sword. "Where's Garf?" Astrid asked, looking around. Death Song Amber was piled up everywhere. "I don't understand, Garf is normally an exhalant shot. How could he hit Stormfly but not the Slither Wings?" Fishlegs asked.
Suddenly Stormfly started panicking and acting disoriented. She knocked over Astrid and wasn't being herself at all. "The Slither Wings must have taken Garf." Hiccup said. "But not before they poisoned my dragon!" Astrid sounded panicked, trying to calm Stormfly.
"Hiccup just look at her, she's not acting normal at all!" Astrid said, standing by Hiccup wile Fishlegs looked in his notes for A cure. "She seems disoriented. She might be in shock...from the poison." Hiccup looked to A very panicked Astrid. "Here it is! The cure for Slither wing venom is sap from A shere tree (Can't remember the name of it so I'm coming up with my own okay?), one angle fern root, and..." "Let me guess, Slither Wing venom?" Fishlegs nodded as Hiccup cut him off.
"Alright guys, we've got to-" "Let me guess, split up? Put the team in equal yet peril danger?" Hiccup looked at Snotlout annoyed. "What? It's what we always do. Question is, who draws the short straw?" Snotlout Folded his arms. "Alright, Ruffnut, Tuffnut, Fishlegs, you three go get the ingredients for the antidote. Astrid you stay here and keep Stormfly come." Hiccup looked to Snotlout. "As for you, we're going to-" "Go get ice cream?" Hiccup frowned. "If by ice cream you mean go find Garf, then yes." "Yack dung short straw." Snotlout made his hands into fist.
Suddenly, A hissing sound was heard in the tree's. "Shh, did you hear that?" Hiccup froze wile listening. "Astrid behind you!" Fishlegs yelled. A large Slither Wings was about to attack Astrid. Hiccup ran into her knocking her over. In the process, Slither Wings venom hit the back of his neck, though no one saw and Hiccup didn't notice in the heat of the moment. Toothless tried to attack the dragon, but wound up getting poisoned as well. He roared loudly, and the Slither Wing retreated.
"Toothless!" Hiccup got up and ran to Toothless. When he got beside his dragon, he suddenly started feeling sick. His legs became weak and Hiccup fell at his best friends side. "Hiccup!" Astrid ran to Hiccup and knew what happened when she saw A red mark where the venom had seeped into his skin. "Guys he was hit to!" Astrid sat Hiccup up, leaning him against her. Hiccup opened his eyes, and found it hard to move. "Toothless." He said, turning towards his dragon.
Toothless started feeling disoriented, and the only thing keeping him still was Hiccup scratching below his chin. "Okay guys new plan! Snotlout and Ruffnut will go find Garf. Fishlegs and Tuffnut go get the ingredients. I'll stay here with Hiccup, Toothless, and Stormfly." Everyone was A bit hesitant to leave there leader, but ran off obeying Astrid's orders.
Hiccup leaned against Toothless, his head laying on his dragons neck. Astrid ran to Stormfly, trying to calm her down. "Stormfly calm down! The more you move the faster the poison will move thorough your body." Stormfly knocked Astrid over, running to A nearby tree. Hiccup frowned, looking up.
"That's strange. When Toothless got poisoned he could hardly move and still can't. He became tired and his eyes aren't doing what hers are doing. She seems more upset than sick." Hiccup said, watching the dragons behavior.
"What are you saying?" Astrid sat by Hiccup, pushing his hair out of his face. "I'm saying she's not showing the symptoms Toothless is. Toothless also has A faded mark in his scales where the poison got thorough." Hiccup moved his hand over the warm spot. "I'm thinking she could be suffering something else." Astrid looked at Stormfly who fell down, roaring sadly. "I think your right, but what could be wrong with her then?" Astrid had some hope in her voice.
Hiccup thought about it, then had an idea when Stormfly looked up, roaring loudly. Stormfly and Toothless had done that one other time as well, when they thought there friend was going to die. "Hang on, let me try something." Hiccup sat up with some trouble, and cuffed his hands over his mouth. He used the best death song call he could, and tried to hum the tune of Heathers lullaby wile using the call. It came out sounding A lot like Garf, and Stormfly imediatly ran to Hiccup, before realizing it was him and nudging him sadly. She then lay down, refusing to look at anyone.
"Wait is she-" "She's grieving the loss of Garf." Hiccup said sadly. "It's the only explanation. All her symptoms aren't ones of poison, there ones of A sad dragon who's in distress, just like when we found Garf and thought we would lose him thanks to the dragon hunters. It's so much worse now though because Stormfly has become so attached to him. He's important to her, special. For example she's not affected by his call, instead she's always hanging out with him. Now she lost him." "The loss of A friend." Astrid finished him in realization. She sat by Stormfly, petting her dragon. "I'm sorry girl. Garf was an amazing dragon, and he really had an impact on our lives. He saved you, and we will never forget him." Astrid drew A picture of Garf and Stormfly in the dirt.
Hiccup smiled weekly, leaning against Toothless again with his head on his crossed arms on the dragons back. His body was starting to ache, and he became sick to his stomach. His amputation sight was starting to become sore to as his muscles became tense under his prosthetic. Astrid noticed Hiccup's discomfort, and sat beside him imediatly. She could tell Hiccup was becoming week, and his skin became pale.
Astrid lay A hand on his shoulder, and ran A finger thorough his hair. Hiccup groaned, moving his leg. Astrid moved to his leg, and started untying his prosthetic, Hiccup hissing in pain. "Shh, it's okay Hiccup. You just need to keep fighting, and hold on." Astrid moved back to his head, laying her hand on his cheek. Hiccup closed his eyes, leaning into his hold. "You need to stay with me, I can't imagine A world without you in it." Hiccup smiled and slightly opened his eyes.
"That's my line." He said jokingly. "Well I just used it. Your just so good at coming up with the right things to say." Astrid leaned down, kissing Hiccup's forehead. Hiccup smiled weekly, closing his eyes again. Toothless groaned, and Hiccup's face tensed in discomfort. He opened his eyes again, trying to sit up. Astrid had to help him, supporting the boy against her shoulder. "Toothless." Hiccup's voice was quiet, and Astrid looked up to the see the sun starting to go down.
"He'll be okay, you both will be." Hiccup and Astrid pet Toothless, Hiccup hardly able to lift his arm. His muscles were more sore, and his face more pale. His face showed he was clearly in some pain, but mostly discomfort. The rise and fall of his chest was becoming more spaced out, and his tense form was becoming more limp. His eyelids hardly fluttered as he tried to stay awake. Astrid began to get more worried.
...
"I've got it! We swim under the water with A bucket. Slither Wing drinks, Slither Wing slobbers. We're in, and We're out." Tuffnut was explaining how he and Fishlegs could get Slither Wing venom. They'd already gotten the angel fern and the sap, now they just needed the harder to get ingredient.
"Tuffnut, the poison will touch us!" Fishlegs said. "Eh." Suddenly A giant Slither Wing jumped out of the bushes, and Meatlug had to get Fishlegs and Tuffnut (Ruffnut had Barch) to safety quickly. Once they flew to the area where Astrid, Toothless, Stormfly, and Hiccup were, they looked saddened at the sight.
Stormfly looked sadder than ever, Toothless couldn't keep his eyes open, breathing heavily, Astrid was rubbing Hiccup's back, and Hiccup was shivering with his eyes closed tightly. "Astrid, is he okay?" Fishlegs kneeled down next to Astrid.
"He'll be fine. Did you get the cure?" Fishlegs shook his head sadly. "I have to ask, why does Stormfly seem to be getting better?" "She wasn't poisoned, I'll explain later. Right now we need to get the cure." Astrid pat Hiccup's back quiet harshly when his breathing became more spaced out. Hiccup coughed and started breathing more evenly, clutching Astrid's hand witch was holding his.
"Wait Hiccup never gets sick. I mean remember eel pox? The scourge of oden? When we all got colds? He was the only person we knew who never got sick. So if he's this bad then..." Tuffnut trailed off. "Then that means it's really bad, we know Tuffnut." Astrid looked to Hiccup who opened his eyes wile moving his hand to Toothless' neck. It was obvious he was making sure the dragon was still alive.
Toothless roared softly, and Hiccup smiled weekly, petting the dragon and seeming to gain the slightest amount of more strength. Toothless made him stronger, it had always been that way. Astrid watched the to, looking at Hiccup's free hand holding hers. She looked closer and could tell he was in pain. One thought ran thorough Astrid's mind.
Hiccup closed his eyes again, mumbling something that sounded like "You'll be fine bud." To Toothless. "I can't lose them." Astrid said quietly to herself and ran into the forest. She got into A battle ready stance, before punching A Slither Wing. She ran back to the others, looking extremely fain imediatly because how fast her heart was beating and how much Slither Wing venom coated her entire arm, making it so much more poison went thorough her body.
"Hope you have enough for three doses." Astrid fainted wile Fishlegs caught her. Hiccup imediatly tried to sit up despite his pain and week form. "Astrid!" He shouted despite his sore and dry throat. Fishlegs looked to Hiccup worried. "Tuffnut go calm him down!" Tuffnut nodded and ran over, kneeling beside Hiccup.
"Hey H. Calm down, you're going to get more sick." Tuffnut tried. Hiccup still breathed heavily. "She'll be fine, you know how Astrid is." This seemed to calm Hiccup A bit. The boy opened his eyes, watching Fishlegs take care of Astrid and make the cure for Slither Wing poison.
...
"Aw there more creepy when there asleep. There creepers." Snotlout shook in fear as he walked thorough A cave full of Sleeping Slither Wings to find Garf. "Shut up Snotlout! Your quaking knees are gonna wake them up." Ruffnut whispered rather harshly. Snotlout frowned and continued walking on.
"What's that?" Snotlout pointed to A giant amber Cocoon. "I don't know, let's check it out." Ruffnut walked on, before hearing A familiar roar. "It's...Garf?" Snotlout sounded unsure. "Of course you idiot. Now common, have Hookfang help me get thorough this thing." Ruffnut wacked Snotlout in the head who growled and had Hookfang heat up the cocoon. They tried there best not to wake the Slither Wings, working slowly.
...
It was nearing Sunset, and Astrid woke up after Fishlegs gave her the cure. "Astrid take it easy. The antidote is still making it's way thorough your body." Fishlegs tried. "I'm fine, where's Hiccup?" Fishlegs frowned. "Astrid you didn't give me A chance to tell you. Slither Wing Venom doesn't have the same effect if it's already someone else's skin. It should give him more time but it won't cure him." Fishlegs gestured to Hiccup and Toothless.
Astrid kneeled beside Hiccup who was now running A high fever. He seemed A little less pale, but still very, very sick. "Hiccup." Hiccup opened his eyes, and looked at Astrid with A week smile. "I'll be fi-" The boy began coughing as his throat started burning when he spoke. Astrid hated seeing him like this. She felt helpless, and she had that awful feeling in her that no one likes. He's not going to make it. Something in the back of her mind said.
Astrid couldn't keep the feeling back, and tears started pricking her eyes. She tried to wipe them away, but some managed to go stray. "Wait is Astrid...crying? What do we do? I mean no ones prepared us for something like this." Tuffnut said surprised.
"It's fine if she cries Tuffnut. No bodies perfect, and it's A normal thing for humans. No one can go there hole life without crying. If anything, I'm glad you care so much." Hiccup's voice was weak and strained, but Astrid smiled warmly at him. "You never cry." Tuffnut countered. Fishlegs and Astrid looked at him, not being able to help but agree. "Tuffnut, everyone cries. Just...not around others." Hiccup shrugged, his voice growing weaker.
Astrid tried to keep her tears back, Hiccup's soft voice helping A little. "What are we going to do?" She said to no one in particular, laying her head on Hiccup's chest who was on his back against Toothless. "We'll figure something out. We always do." Hiccup whispered, running A finger thorough Astrid's hair after using all his strength to lift his arm so he could do so.
"But what if we can't Hiccup?" Astrid's tears started coming again. "What if you-" "Don't think like that Astrid. What ever happens happens, but don't think about the worst happening. I'm sure when Snotlout and Ruffnut get back, we'll find some way to get this taken care of. Besides, I'm not the only one who needs the cure, and you know I'd never give up on Toothless." Hiccup moved his hand from Astrid's hair to her arm and grabbed her hand.
Astrid bit her lip, fighting her tears and nodding at Hiccup determined. "Your right. Fishlegs do you or Tuffnut have any ideas?" Astrid looked at the two wile Hiccup rested back, obviously feeling worse along with his dragon who made A low moaning sound as his skin got hotter.
"Well we can't touch the poison, and we can't get it from the Slither Wings without being spotted by them. If we could get them to shoot something, like when A change wing shot Snotlout's helmet and we used the acid on it to activate the dragon eye, then we could remove the poison from what ever was shot and use it." Fishlegs started coming up with ideas. Not really plans but ideas.
...
"Uh oh!" Hookfang had just gotten Garfenyarg out of his cocoon, but Garf roared accidently waking up the Slither Wing dragons. The giant Slither Wings started attacking and the two riders tried to fight them off. They were cornered and Garf called for help.
...
Astrid was sitting by Hiccup, and the boy was started to have trouble breathing. "Hiccup common stay with me." Astrid held him against her shoulder and Hiccup coughed once more before finally falling unconscious. "No." Astrid listened to his heart, and his pulse was week. She knew that if they didn't have the cure, there was no way he would live.
"Hiccup I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, I tried but.." Astrid couldn't take it, and started crying over the dying boy in her arms. Fishlegs kneeled down, starting to cry as well. Toothless nudged his rider, roaring sadly but then falling unconscious as well, unable to hold on.
Astrid's shoulders shook, and she tried as hard as she could to wake Hiccup up. Tuffnut whipped his own tears as well, punching A tree as A wave of unfair rage went over him. "No!" He shouted, crushing A piece of fruit that hit the ground under his feet.
Suddenly Stormfly's head perked up as she heard Garf. The others heard it to. Fishlegs and Tuffnut agreed to go help Snotlout and Ruffnut, Astrid staying to hold Hiccup who was becoming more pale by the second.
...
"Guys! Thank Gods your here!" Snotlout said. He used his helmet to shield his head from another attack. The Poison coated the top, and Fishlegs suddenly got an idea. "Snotlout! Don't take off your helmet!" He shouted. "What do you mean?! If I don't take it off-" "Snotlout if you take that helmet off and spill that poison then Hiccup will die!" Tuffnut said loudly in Snotlout's face. His fists were clenched and his voice stern.
Snotlout was admittedly terrified of Tuffnut at the moment and agreed. They fought off the Slither Wings and flew back to Astrid and Hiccup.
...
"Astrid! We got the venom, I can make A cure!" Fishlegs shouted. Astrid looked more relieved than ever and nodded. Fishlegs made the cure and gave it to Hiccup and Toothless. What was puzzling though, was why Hiccup and Toothless wouldn't wake up.
"Hiccup?" Astrid shook him, but Hiccup remained limp. Astrid shook him again, nothing. "Hiccup? Common wake up." Astrid sat him up against her, but Hiccup was unresponsive.
"No." Fishlegs kneeled down, and placed his hand on Hiccup's neck. Hiccup's pulse was... "Gone." Fishlegs said in A quiet, sad, broken voice. Astrid shook her head, and the others went silent. She began crying again, clutching Hiccup's hand tightly.
"I know how to restart A heart. Give him to me." Snotlout said. Astrid gave Hiccup to Snotlout. Snotlout folded his hands over each other started pressing on Hiccup's chest. "Common Hiccup. We need you." Hiccup just wouldn't wake up.
Suddenly Toothless woke up, the cure working on him. He stood up, and imediatly noticed Snotlout pushing on his rider. Toothless growled, and knocked Snotlout over. He bared his teethe to the boy, and Snotlout covered his face.
"No Toothless! You don't understand, Snotlout was trying to help him!" Toothless heard Astrid, and imediatly got off the boy. He then walked back to Hiccup, and his face went from worried to pure horror as he saw his riders condition.
"Toothless." Astrid whipped her tears as Toothless roared sadly, trying to wake his rider up. "Toothless he's-" Suddenly coughing was heard, and Hiccup's eyes fluttered open. He gasped for air, and Astrid smiled bigger than ever before, helping him sit up.
Hiccup's entire body was sore, and he had the worst headache he'd ever had in his life. He groaned wile clutching his side, tears starting to find there way down his cheeks. I guess you do cry Astrid, Fishlegs, and Tuffnut thought.
"Hiccup! Your okay." Astrid brushed his hair out of his face. Hiccup calmed down, and looked at her with A weak smile. "Told you so." Astrid shook her head, then saw Hiccup smile wile reaching up to pet Toothless. Toothless didn't have to do CPR, he didn't have to give Hiccup A cure, he just had to let him know he was okay.
Realization suddenly struck Astrid. "You were waiting for him to wake up, weren't you?" Hiccup looked at her confused at first, then got what she was saying. "Not exactly, I was unconscious after all. I could feel my body dying though, and I tried but didn't think I could hold on. I thought it was it but yes...knowing Toothless was safe and so worried...it did give me some sort of strength I can't explain." Hiccup pet his dragon again.
"You two really do have an unbreakable bond." Astrid smiled, kissing Hiccup who happily kissed back. "Yeah, truth be told on that. I do know one thing for sure..." Hiccup trailed off yawning. "Say no more." Astrid held Hiccup against her, rubbing the boys back and playing with his hair.
Hiccup attempted to say she didn't have to, but within A minute he was fast asleep. A dragon and dragon rider bond, his girlfriend who would always protect him, and his best friends are what got Hiccup thorough the fight against poison when Slither Wings struck.
