Hey everyone! Here is Chapter 2 of Double Sided 4! Sorry, it took so long to write it, i have been very busy. So let's get straight into...

CHAPTER 2: RECOVERY AND CHOICES


One week. Toothless kept teleporting for one week.

He met so many versions of himself that he barely knew who he was anymore. He was starving, thirsty, tired, and just plain sick of it. He never stopped for a break, he never laid down for a rest, and he always kept running and running and running forever.


Toothless opened his eyes to find himself in a forest. He started walking through the trees until he eventually found himself at a river. He was gonna continue walking until the next teleport, but he collapsed from malnourishment.

"A-Alright, m-maybe I should rest and g-get something to eat," Toothless moaned to himself and then tried standing on his shaky legs, only to fall back down.

It took him a few minutes to get up and make his way over to the river. He stopped at the very edge and he looked into the river.

He saw so many fish, his mouth watered and his stomach growled from hunger. He licked his lips and his body shook.

Toothless waited until a few fish surfaced, and then he snapped them up in his jaws and swallowed them whole. He purred at the feeling of having SOMETHING in his stomach for the first time in a week.

He then quickly lapped up some water, then curled up and lay down. He closed his eyes and eventually fell asleep.

When he opened his eyes, he was in a different place entirely. The ground was not grass but stone, and there were no trees around him.

"Oh lovely," Toothless mumbled to himself and gets up. He gathers his bearings and sets out on finding someplace or someone.

He walked for what felt like hours, but was only around an hour. Then, he teleported again as the sun set on the stone mountains.


Toothless opened his eyes to find himself in the middle of the ocean. This was not the first time he had ended up in the ocean, but this time there was no land in sight.

"Oh, absolutely lovely. Thank Thor I can fly," Toothless muttered and tried to get out of the water, only for his tail fin to remain closed.

"Well, crap," Toothless muttered and looked at his tail fins. The mechanical tail fin was jammed because a bunch of rocks and sticks were stuck in the gears.

"Well...guess I'm swimming all the way to an island," Toothless grumbled and started swimming. The entire time he was growling under his breath.

Eventually, he managed to make it to land, but what he found horrified him. There where dragons and Vikings lying DEAD all around him. He walked through the fields of dead corpses until he made it to a group of familiar people...

Lying on the ground, dead, were Hiccup, Astrid, Snotlout, the Twins, Stoick, Gobber, Dagur, Heather, Mala, Throk, Atali, Minden, and so many more.

He went over to Hiccup and put his paw on Hiccup's chest, to see if he was breathing.

Suddenly, Hiccup's eyes snapped open and he grabbed Toothless' paw while blood slowly started coming out of his mouth.

"You...could have...saved us," Hiccup said before going limp. Toothless took two steps back from Hiccup before he broke into a full on sprint away from the mess and destruction before it broke him inside and out.

Then, he stumbled upon the dead bodies of all his dragon friends, and himself.

He walked towards his own dead body. He didn't know if this was the future or an alternate future, and that terrified him.

He laid one of his paws on the corpse, only to be met with a cold, dead body. He sighed and looked away. Toothless quickly started looking around for some sign of what caused everyone's death.

He then looked up to see 4 massive dragons grinning down at him, and then Toothless realized just what reality he was in. He was in an alternate future where he failed to stop the teleportation, an alternate future where he let everyone down.

One of the dragons raised their paw and started to bring it down on top of Toothless, and then Toothless took in a deep breath before going into a full on sprint.

He knew he wasn't going to make it, but he still had to try. Then, the huge paw hit him and started crushing him. He could feel his bones starting to crack and his entire body starting to split apart.

Then everything went dark as he was teleported.


Toothless opened his eyes to find himself inside a dragon's nest. He coughed loudly as oxygen made it to his lungs.

"That was...to close...for my comfort," Toothless moaned and then got up on shaky legs. He made his way over to a group of caves, which he hoped were healing caves.

"C-Can someone here please help me?" Toothless groans and uses his paw to rub his aching side. A dragon comes over and helps him make his way to a place to rest.

"Can you describe what hurts?" the dragon asks and Toothless coughs up a little blood.

"Umm, my left foreleg, my tail, my head, my stomach, my chest, and a few other places," Toothless says and the dragon healer nods while looking Toothless over.

"Can you flip onto your back?" The dragon asks and Toothless nods before flipping over onto his back, exposing his belly and throat to the healer dragon, who looks him over.

"Oh my..." The healer dragon says and Toothless coughs a bit.

"What's wrong?" Toothless asks while holding his aching side. He coughs up a bit more blood.

"Y-Your completely malnourished, and you have a few pretty fatal wounds, including this one right here," The healer says and uses his claw to point at Toothless' side, right where the Monstrous Nightmare had stabbed him.

"Oh, that wound. Well, a Monstrous Nightmare stabbed me right there," Toothless says and the healer nods. She quickly cleans up the wound and wraps it up with a piece of stolen cloth.

"There you go. I recommend you get something to eat and drink, and then you get a good 24 hours of sleep," The healer says and Toothless fakes a smile. He could get something to eat and drink but he couldn't get more than 45 minutes of rest.

He quickly sprinted down to what he hopes is the eating hall, and finds a storage room.

"Damn it," Toothless mumbles and continues running throughout the nest, trying to find a place to eat. Then, he started fading and he groaned in annoyance, especially considering that his stomach was growling loudly.

"Great, guess I can't even eat anymore," Toothless muttered before fading completely.


Toothless opened his eyes to find himself in the middle of the forest. The moon was high in the sky and he could hear the sounds of Vikings and dragons sleeping.

"Wait...is this..." Toothless whispered under his breath and then quickly ran towards the noises, and that's when he found himself just outside of the village of Berk.

He looked up at the Haddock house, and saw that the front of the house was not the new one. It wasn't even the one from after Nightmare T blew it open. It was the old one.

"Nightmare T hasn't escaped yet..." Toothless whispered under his breath, and instantly he thought about changing the timeline. He could do something to stop Nightmare T from getting a body, or stop Nightmare T from escaping at all.

He ran down to the food storage, and he quickly sneaked inside and found two small baskets that had his name on them. One was empty, and the other...the other was the same one that had had the eel in it.

Toothless quickly emptied the basket out completely. He searched through the pile of fish and tried finding an eel, only to find nothing. That's when Toothless realized something.

"There was never an eel in the basket in the first place. Hiccup knows eel makes me sick," Toothless mumbled as he came to the realization that SOMEONE had to have put the eel in there SPECIFICALLY to get Nightmare T to come out, and no one else could have had the opportunity except for him.

Toothless knew what he had to do. He had to put the eel in the basket with the fish so that the timeline would continue as normal. But...he didn't want to.

Toothless stood there for 30 minutes contemplating whether or not he should put the eel in the basket. He then realized something. If he never put the eel in the basket, then he would never go on to NOT put the eel in the basket, thus causing a paradox.

Toothless sighs as he realizes that he had to put the eel in the basket. He had no choice, because he had ALREADY done it.

Toothless quickly grabs an eel from a nearby basket, and he puts the eel in the basket with the fish. He sighs and puts the basket back in its place for Hiccup to find later.

That's when his stomach growled loudly and Toothless whined. He looked around for a basket of fish he could take without anyone noticing, and that's when he spotted a small basket hanging on the wall.

He grabbed the basket and he ran to the cove. Toothless knew he had only had a few minutes before he was teleported again. He quickly ripped the basket open and he dived in, eating and munching on the fish inside.

He eventually finished eating all the fish inside and small basket, and he moaned happily. He didn't realize just how GOOD having a full belly felt.

"I'm never going without food...ever...again," Toothless said to himself before getting teleported.


A few teleportations later and Toothless found himself walking in a forest. He was alone and the forest was empty and quiet. Just a bit too quiet.

Toothless then felt something hit him hard on the back of the head, and he collapsed as his ears rang. He whimpered and whined while everything started fading to black. The last thing he heard was two people chuckling and laughing.

Everything faded back in a bit later, and he realized he was being dragged by two dragons, who were laughing.

"So, what does she want us to do with this one?" One of the dragons, a Monstrous Nightmare, asks the other. The other, a Deadly Nadder, chuckles.

"Get him to THE CHAMBER," The Deadly Nadder says and they both chuckle while Toothless falls back asleep.

Toothless wakes up later to find himself tied to the ground in the middle of an empty room, Toothless starts struggling and biting at the bonds that are keeping him tied down.

Eventually, one of the stone walls pops open and the two dragons walk in, Toothless groans in annoyance before realizing just what kind of dragons these are. Torturers.

"Listen, Night Fury, your either gonna attach THIS metal band to your arm, or you're gonna KNOW what it feels like to die but still be alive," One of the dragons says and Toothless's breath stopped for a few seconds. Suddenly, a metal armband was dropped in front of him. He growled at it.

"No," Toothless says and the dragon smirked.

"We hoped you would say that," The dragons say and then leave the room, and then they return with a bag, and something STRUGGLING in that bag. They pulled a small green Terrible Terror out from the bag and they sent a punch to the Terror's face, hurting him badly.

"If you don't put that armband on, this Terror will die," The Deadly Nadder says and Toothless growls. The other dragons smile and slowly start trying to pull off the Terror's head, the Terror roaring and whining in protest.

Toothless then recognized this one terror, and he gasped. The terror is Sharpshot, and Toothless sighs before slapping the band onto his arm. It beeped and locked on his arm.

"Good Night Fury. See you in death," The Monstrous Nightmare said and threw Sharpshot aside. The Monstrous Nightmare then pressed a button, causing Toothless to be stabilized and teleported.


That's it for Chapter 2 of Double Sided 4! I will see you all in CHAPTER 3 THE CASTLE!
