What have I done, to be loseing you?

Chapter 14 light agents a dark sky

Normal hiccup's POV

I could only do so much at the moment but still, I couldn't keep the darkness at bay for long.

I sat down from stretching my aching legs which had been asleep for a long time I thought back to when I was still young.

I walked around the village aimlessly looking around curiously looking for her; I had to admit she was really good at playing hide and go kill with me I can't find her anywhere!

"Hey Hiccup!" Astrid said as she ran up to me panting.

"Aren't you sappost to be hiding from me?" I asked.

She nodded.

"Y-yeah but I think you should see this!" She said.

I looked at her confused this had been the first time I couldn't understand someone other than myself.

But I followed her all the same.

-a few minutes later-

Know I understood what she wanted me to see a ruin. I didn't even know that we had ruins on Berk!

"You want to explore?" She asked curiosity in her eyes.

I smiled. "Sure but we need to be very careful okay."

She nodded.

I lit two torches and we walked into the ruins.

After some time we entered a throne room.

I felt a chill go down my spine and I turned to Astrid.

"Do you have a feeling that were not alone?" I asked.

"Y-Yeah i-I sort of do." She said.

Then all around us were ghosts!

I think I almost fainted but I didn't.

{Friends look we have guests.} A young lady with black hair and blue eyes said.

{Yes and it looks like the boy is the one we've been waiting for.} Said a young boy looking to be about sixteen.

"I-I don't understand w-what are you talking about?" I asked.

{The maiden has come with him} Said another.

"Uh…H-Hiccup p-please tell me you have a plan!?" Astrid said.

"U-Ummm yeah about that…I-I d-don't have one!" I said.

{We must hold the ritual tonight my friends} Said a man.

"I-I'm s-sorry we h-have to b-be g-going k-know." I stuttered.

{Non-sense you don't need to leave.} A woman said smiling.

"He said we need to go." Astrid repeated.

{You can try but you'll never escape.} A little girl said laughing.

I locked my eyes with Astrid's and we run, well at lest Astrid can, I'm stuck were I am unable to move.

"Hiccup!" Astrid cried.

"Astrid!" I yelled back.

I suddenly watch a ghost enter her body.

"No Astrid!" I yelled.

The ghost imettitly is thrown out of her body and disappear thought the wall.

"Don't you ever try that again or so help me I'll make you regret entering my body!" Astrid snapped.

A ghost approached me and did the same thing I gasped and felt strange like I was beginning to take the ghost's place.

Astrid waked my neck making the ghost exits my body.

"Thanks." I said.

"I'll do the something if you try to take him over to!" She yelled.

The ghosts then went on with their biasness.

"It's my fault we're in this mess." Astrid said.

"Not at all Astrid, we didn't know this would happen." I said.

-Later at moon rise-

{The moon is rising} the woman with black hair and blue eyes said.

"What's so important about the moon rising?" Astrid asked.

The moons ray began to hit the ruins that are on the ground before me and I read them aloud.

"A young boy and a young girl will appear one day and on that day the moon will steal the light!"

I knew what this was know! I'd read it from one of the books I got from Trader Johann.

"Astrid get away from the moons rays!" I said

She dose.

"But what about you!" She asked.

"I-I can't move reamber. Stay there; don't come into the moon light do you understand! Promise me that no matter what happens to me you'll stay there!" I said.

"Hiccup…okay i-I promise." She said.

I can hear the fear in her tone.

The light begins to hit me and I scream.

"Hiccup! Stop it what are you doing to him!" She screamed.

{The light in the dark sky} Said the woman with black hair and blue eyes.

I struggled I begun to feel my body starting to move with the moons rays, one of the effects of the ceremony.

"Astrid I'll explain it to you in a way you'd understand. This is a ceremony that was done contrivers ago to protect the world from darkness; it was banned long ago because of what it does to people! In some cases it could only have side effects but if done like it is now, I'll disappear and my spirit will be trapped here just like these souls! I know this is hard to take in but I can't risk you ending up like me!" I said.

"No! You can't disappear!" She yelled.

My body is know in perfect rithum with the moons rays.

"Astrid I don't have a choice as soon as the moon reaches its highest point in the sky I'm gone!" I said tears falling from my eyes.

"No! I don't care about the promise anymore I need to get you out of the moonlight!" She said running towrords me when the ghosts take control of her she emeditly throws them out but she was stuck to the ground.

"Let me go!" she yelled.

{We cannot let you interfere with the ceremony.} Said one of the ghosts.

She gritted her teeth and struggled trying to free her feet.

I looked up at the moon and it was nearing its peck in the sky.

My bodies light begun to shine into the sky and my true body begun to start fading.

Astrid broke free and entered the moons light she screamed out of pain, but held me tightly and pulled me free and out of the moon light just as it reached its peak in the sky.

{No she ruined the ceremony!} Cried one of the ghosts.

{No she hasn't look} Said an elder.

I looked down at my hands they were ghost-like.

"Oh no…" I said looking at Astrid.

"I-I need to get out of here… before I become a ghost!" I said

Astrid helped me up and we ran as fast as our legs could take us, my body disappearing quickly.

We make it outside.

I looked back down at my body; full and normal.

"Let's never do that again." Astrid said panting.

"Agreed." I said.

I re opened my eyes looking at my body seeing the mark that had been placed on me when I had been young, a crescent moon scar on my left wrist; fading away. We never did go back to that place. I'll bring it up next time I see Astrid. I closed my eyes again and fell asleep.
