~Hiccup's Dream
"You're right bud, it's time." Hiccup began. "I was so busy fighting for a world I wanted, I didn't think about what you needed."
Hiccup looked over at the white female light fury, her blue eyes dilating at little.
"You've looked after us long enough, it's time to look after yourselves."
Astrid felt her heart sink, sadness washing over her as she walked over towards her dragon. She ran her hand under Stormfly's chin until she reached her saddle straps. She snapped the saddle straps off, then pulled it over to the side until it fell to the ground.
"Oh Stormfly, my good girl." Astrid said, her voice cracking.
"Alright Grumpy, off you go." Gobber said sadly as he dismounted the saddle from his Hotburple.
"So long, you big ugly beast." Eret son of Eret said as he threw the saddle off Skullcrusher. "I'll miss you."
Along with their leaders, the rest of the village began to snap the saddles off their dragons' backs. Some dragons shook their bodies while others hugged their riders.
"Oh Cloudjumper." Valka said tearfully as she began to stroke his chin.
Tuffnut gently bumped his sister, who looked to be in complete despair. Barf held his head close to her as she closed her eyes, her shoulders slumped.
The village turned towards their chief, petting their dragons one last time.
Hiccup gently stroked Toothless as the attention was turned back on them.
"Go on Bud, lead them to the Hidden World." Hiccup said. "You'll be safe there, safer than you could ever be with me." Toothless purred, sadly looking at Hiccup.
"It's okay, I love you too, but I want you to be free." Hiccup said, hugging Toothless. He hopped back a few inches, looking at the other dragons, then back at Toothless.
"Our world doesn't deserve you, yet." He said.
Toothless gazed over at the light fury, then back at his now former rider. He stood up on his hind legs, wrapping his front claws around him so that he could hug him. Hiccup gently hugged his dragon back, tears flowing through his eyes.
Where man and dragon both stared into each others eyes, sadness, but freedom, could be seen.
"Go Toothless, go." Hiccup said, removing his hand away from his dragon. Toothless closed his eyes as he felt Hiccup's hand move from his face. He slowly opened his green eyes, staring at Hiccup. He smiled at his dragon, though tear streaks were clear on his face.
Toothless looked at the light fury, then gave a loud, commanding Alpha roar, spreading his wings wide and standing up on his hind legs. The other dragons roared back, standing up on their hind legs and flapping to copy their Alpha's movements.
The light fury purred at Toothless as she opened her wings to take first lead back to the Hidden World. She looked back, then continued forward into the open sky. Fishlegs gave Meatlug Fishmeat as all of the other dragons began to take off and follow after the light fury.
All of the villagers watched their dragons leave, tears coming to eyes, heads bowed. Gobber wiped a watery eye away as Eret son of Eret gave him a pat on the back.
Hiccup looked up overhead to watch the rest of the dragons leave with the others, but his focus soon fell on the night fury. The only dragon that remained with them.
Toothless looked back at Hiccup, and Hiccup gave him a reassuring smile. Toothless gave a small whimper, then he opened his wings and followed along with the rest of the dragons.
The villagers came to stand by Hiccup's side, and Hiccup smiled as one last tear fell from his eye.
Hiccup reached out his hands at Astrid's. She looked up and smiled at him before she reaching her hands into his. She smiled wider, nodding as Hiccup smiled back at her. Her blonde hair tumbled down her back, and her pink flower crown matched perfectly with her white and gold wedding dress.
Gothi held a piece of cloth and began to wrap it around their hands before she touch the center with her staff. Gobber wiped away tears, knocking some flower petals onto the ground.
Hiccup and Astrid kissed tenderly as one shouted "TO THE CHIEF AND CHIEFTESS!"
The village began to cheer and Gobber threw the flowers in the air, and somehow Eret son of Eret caught them. Snotlout wiped a tear away then sniffed; however he quickly made a hard face so that it did not appear that he was crying.
Tuffnut grabbed Snotlout, holding him close into his chest.
"Come, cry into my full thick beard." He said.
Fishlegs began to hysterically cry, "Oh its so beautiful!"
"Gross.." Ruffnut said, looking to the side.
Fishlegs looked around for someone to hug, then bear hugged Ruffnut. She gasped with shock, then relaxed.
"Okay, you win." She said, hugging him back. "I like sensitive guys."
The cheering from the village continued as Hiccup and Astrid held hands and looked back at their people.
The dragon riders all gathered back together, Valka, Eret, and Gobber too, to the place where they set their dragons free. It had felt like forever since they had done so.
Astrid leaned against Hiccup as Hiccup passionately hugged her back, both of them looking into the sky..
