(A/N) Another fan-shot for you amazing people! I need to say something, I was watching the Hiccup's dream scene from wings of war in RTTE season 5 and can't help but thinking about the possibilities of why Hiccup's dream upset him so much as you see him wake up screaming "No!" before telling Toothless sorry and that it's okay. Here's my take on why flying into the explosion just as you hear someone yell when the hut explodes scared Hiccup so bad. I think it could've had something to do with one, the scream you hear during the explosion probably made him scared that he hit someone and it also resembled Viggo's yell when he fell into the volcano before. Two, Hiccup and Toothless flew right into the hut, and Hiccup probably had the fear they might have crashed. Three, Hiccup's flown near many explosions, but the last time he fell directly into one like that was when he fell into the red death explosion.

Rusher Girl: Your reviews really make my day.

Guest Johnathen: I really like all your ideas and will try them sometime.

Story idea timeline: RTTE Season 5 during the episodes wings of war.

Story idea: When Hiccup wakes up from the nightmare he had after sleeping in the Defenders of the wing's huts, he is left with fear and memories. Later in the day, the dream affects Hiccup more when he has an odd flashback of it, witch never really happened before. Can Hiccup get his thoughts under control with the help of Toothless?

Warnings/Details: Rated K for my randomness in writing. Some Hiccstrid, mostly Hiccup Toothless bonding, and the newer shown bond I love between Hiccup and Mala who are both leaders. Spoilers for season 5 to the max as I write A hole scene from it here.

Summary:

After the dragon flyers took over the edge, Hiccup and his friends stayed the night at the defenders of the wing. Hiccup had Nightmares of the battle he had and when he nearly crashed into his hut witch he exploded. When the Nightmares, stress, and memories of his previous fights start frightening Hiccup, can some advice from Mala, care from Astrid, and the bond he has with his best bud help Hiccup clear his mind and formulate A plan to get his home back?

Hiccup was flying on Toothless after battling the dragon flyers on there Singtails that took over the edge. Hiccup looked over to see none other than the bounty hunter who threw A chain around his neck to take him to Viggo flying the opposite direction. Hiccup's hut came into view, and he knew what he had to do. "Now bud! Do it!" Toothless shot Hiccup's hut, fire going everywhere and A mans voice yelling from inside. They flew strait into the fire Hiccup terrified.

"No!" Hiccup shot up into A sitting position panicked. When Toothless nudged him letting him know where he was, Hiccup calmed down. "Oh, I'm sorry. It's okay bud." Hiccup looked around and remembered he was in one of the defenders of the wings huts.

Hiccup looked down, the dream he had still fresh on his mind. Toothless nudged him again and Hiccup sighed. "Y-Yeah I'm fine. Just A nightmare Toothless. Nothing more." Toothless crooned worriedly but gently. Hiccup tried to slow his breathing more.

"Just been A wile since I had A dream like that you know? There's just so much stress going on, I don't think I was prepared to wake up from A Nightmare. So, should we go uh..." Hiccup looked around the hut and saw everyone else was gone. "Face the music?" Toothless nodded and the two walked outside.

Hiccup and Toothless walked outside, seeing everyone was bored and bummed out. Ruffnut and Tuffnut had two bores trying to get there attention, but were to bored to pay attention. Snotlout was in A distant world. Fishlegs just looked depressed. Astrid spotted Hiccup as he walked up to her.

"Uh...I've seen worse." Hiccup tried to be optimistic. "Remind me when that was." Astrid said wile folding her arms. She turned around and stood beside Hiccup. "So should we talk about our next move? I was thinking we should try to get the edge back." She said. Hiccup looked up about to respond when Fishlegs cut in.

"How do we even know if we can get the edge back? We have no idea how many more flyers are out there." He said and Hiccup looked down again. Fishlegs was right. With the memory of his dream on his mind, Hiccup remembered over A dozen flyers it seemed with how much fire there was. A part of him feared going into that again, the other part though, wanted to take his home back.

Ruffnut and Tuffnut were going on about nonsense about Tuffnut's stupid questions when Mala walked over. "You will all have time to plan the correct course of action." Hiccup turned around as her and Throk stood near him. "But right now you are all mentally and physically exhausted." She finished.

Hiccup looked at all the riders, there expressions tired and sad. "You need to rest, regroup. You are welcome among us for as long as you need." Hiccup walked towards Mala, trying to look pleased but looking saddened as well.

"Thank you Mala. You have no idea how much this means to us." He said. Mala looked at Throk, then smiled wile looking at Fishlegs with A sly smile. "Uh Fishlegs? There's an ore mine in the middle of the island. Oxide, sulfide, silicates." Meatlug suddenly stood up, looking exited.

"Oh no, no, no don't say silicates it makes her.." Red and orange lava started pouring out of Meatlug's mouth. "Drool." Fishlegs finished wile smiling weakly at his dragon who seemed in A distant land, probably full of rare, delicious ores.

Throk stepped up, looking at Ruffnut and Tuffnut with A smile. "My Queen has had me scouting out some pristine locations, where one could build A temporary bore pit." He said. The twins looked up at him, Ruffnut shrugging. "Bore bit." "So last year." Ruffnut and Tuffnut said in A super bummed out voice.

Throk wasn't giving up. He spoke again in A taunting voice. "What about A Lava pit? Very dangerous. Hot, smoldering magma?" Ruffnut and Tuffnut suddenly perked up, ideas of crazy things only they could think of flooding there minds.

"Sounds spicy!" Ruffnut stood up wile rubbing her hands together as if preparing herself for causing trouble again. "One might even say, muy picante." Tuffnut said in Spanish meaning 'very spicy'. "Como es tu EspaƱol Throkman?" Tuffnut asked again in Spanish meaning 'How is your Spanish, Throkman?'. Tuffnut laughed and said something else making Throk's name sound like it was A Spanish name.

As Throk walked away with the twins, Queen Mala approached Snotlout using A 'we need help really bad' sort of sweet voice. "Snotlout? Eh some of our younger worriers are in desperate need for hand-to-hand combat training." Mala then looked the other way wile gesturing to Snotlout. "But, if your to tired I..." Snotlout suddenly perked up as he processed this new information.

"Ha! The Snot doesn't do 'tired'." Snotlout stood up and imediatly got on Hookfang. "Where are those little guys?" And with that, Snotlout was off. Only Hiccup, Toothless, Astrid, Stormfly, and Mala were left alone near the hut the dragon riders had slept in. Hiccup smiled wile walking towards Mala.

"Uh...again thank you Mala." Hiccup thanked her gratefully as Mala turned around after using her hand to shield her face from the gust of air Hookfang's massive wings produced. "I've been precisely where you stand Hiccup Haddock. When one leads, one is looked upon for all answers. Some of witch...they haven't yet found." Hiccup looked down at Mala's words, and Astrid lay A hand on his shoulder.

"Key word being yet." Hiccup smiled as Astrid looked at him confidently. Her confidence rubbed off on him and made him feel A little better. Toothless walked up beside Hiccup, and Hiccup's mind wandered. He remembered the dream that was more of A memory he had last night. How many flyers there were, when him and Toothless flew at his hut and timed there blast A little wrong nearly crashing, Hiccup had no idea what to do about everything.

Suddenly another thing happened. That dream that scared him for many reasons came back as A sort of flashback, the fire filling his vision and reminding him of the red death explosion he'd been in A few years back. Then Krogan, and memories of how dangerous the hunters had been wile trying to kidnap Hiccup when he had A bounty on him.

This happened quiet quickly, and Hiccup wasn't used to flashes like that. He couldn't see anything but them, and when they went away, Hiccup was shaken up. "Are you okay?" Mala asked, apparently seeing Hiccup's odd body language as he went thorough the memories. "U-uh y-yeah." Hiccup said wile trying to slow his breathing.

"You know, maybe you and Toothless should go do something to. To clear your minds and relax A bit." Astrid tried recommending. "How do you suppose I do that?" Hiccup asked confused. He had way to much to worry about right now, so how could he relax at the same time he needed to work?

"She's right. If your thoughts are clouded and you let stress overwhelm you, you won't be able to think the speed you need, and will be worried about to much at once to concentrate. There's A lake with A waterfall on the west side of the island. Maybe you and Toothless could fly over there and try to clear you minds." Mala gestured the direction they should go.

The flashes happened again, and it scared Hiccup to see the Singtails attacking the edge and his friends so suddenly like that. It filled most of his vision and took up his hearing. When the flashes stopped, Hiccup looked down. "I-I think I should stay here and try to figure out-" "Hiccup you and Toothless need this. I'll stay and make sure the other riders are okay and doing what there supposed to be okay?"

Hiccup looked down into Astrid's warm eyes as her hand lay on his chest over his heart. Something about her gentle yet firm at the same time voice made him want to do what she said, and he knew deep down her and Mala were right. He did need some alone time with Toothless.

"Alright. Thanks again, it means more than you think." Hiccup looked at Mala then at Astrid. "I'll be back soon, I promise." With that him and Toothless took to the air. Hiccup was already feeling A little better. How long had it been since him and Toothless just flew in the clouds and over the water for relaxation or trick flying, without trying to plan something or being in battle? Hiccup was becoming more and more better as they flew thorough the slightly chilly air.

Once near the lake Mala mentioned, Hiccup and Toothless flew under the water fall. The cool water splashed over two, causing Hiccup to laugh. They then flew over the dark lakes water, Hiccup laying on Toothless' back with his hands behind his head.

"Feels like forever since we just flew like this huh bud?" Toothless crooned softly, smiling as the water hit his skin. Hiccup's mind wandered again, thinking and trying to plan, but Hiccup remembered what Mala had said. He needed to clear his thoughts, collect himself, and then think more clearly about what to do later. Right now he was mentally and Physically exhausted after fighting flyers and having nightmares all night.

Hiccup took A breath, and closed his eyes. He tried to replace bad memories with good ones. Hiccup remembered when him and Toothless were younger and would fly away from Berk because everything dragon training threw on him. He remembered trick flying, gliding over the ocean, romantic flights with Astrid, soaring thorough the night, and more. Suddenly Hiccup got an idea.

"You own the night bud. Maybe we could use that to our advantage and get the A team on bored to help us out? With everyone fighting together and you as our advantage, we should be able to fight the hunters. I don't know exactly how we'll do it without hurting the dragons, but we have A start right?" Hiccup smiled and pet Toothless.

Toothless made A soft sound and pushed the top of his head harder into Hiccup's palm witch was scratching his scales. Hiccup smiled, knowing Toothless believed in him no matter what decision he made. "Alright. So...wanna try out some tricks with the new flight suit?" Toothless made A sound and Hiccup laughed.

"Aw common Toothless. It'll be fine! Besides we're right over the lake so if something happens the water will break our falls." Hiccup unhooked the clip holding his suit in the saddle. "Ready?" Toothless got in position and Hiccup went for A suicide dive before using his flight suit to glide in the air. Man he didn't know how much he missed this. And with A clear head and new perspective, Hiccup was confident he'd figure out how to fight the flyers, just like Astrid and Mala said he could.

(A/N) So not exactly how I expected it to go but my mind wandered and I typed what it told me to. I've got A lot going on up here, heh.
