The woman stares at Hiccup as she puts her hand on his chest. perfect, his heart beat is around a beat a minute, just barely alive. she knows what the others are going to think, but her and Hiccup know this is mandatory, if he wants to end this, and if he wants to live. Hiccup is passed out, barely living, and she knows the plan is in full effect. the only other thing that knows is Toothless, because he is coming with them. so he is the only other one that has to fake this. she gets up and walks out to the others.
"Hiccup" she clears her throat, "Hiccup, is no longer with us" she says, as everyone stares at her with upmost sadness. Astrid runs in the room where Hiccup is, and hugs him. and when the healer tries getting her off, she wont do it. Stoick walks in, staring at his son. valka stormed out, swearing at the sky.
"Hiccup, i'm so sorry" Stoick says, putting his hand on Hiccups head, tears rolling down his face. Toothless walked out with Brenda, trying to hide his "i know something you don't" face.
"No Hiccup, you cant leave me. im widowed now" Astrid says, and Stoick gets her up and gives her a hug. Astrid knows she would never get another guy other than Hiccup, but he didn't have to leave so soon. shes only twenty five for crying out loud, widowed at twenty five must be a new record. She gets out of Stoicks grip and puts her head on his stomach, as his almost lifeless head comes to rest on his shoulder.
she wipes her tears, but more just keep coming. Gobber comes in and pats Stoick on the back and gives him a hug, because Gobber knows what loss is. Astrid gets up, wiping her tears away again, and walks out, alone. she is alone. alone is something she feared, being without Hiccup is something she never wanted. first svieen now Hiccup, what has this world come to? taking out the two best men she knows. the only problem is she is a single mother for life, no matter how many men want her, she just cant anymore. not without Hiccup.
Stoick and Gobber leave soon after, leaving just the healer, the old woman, and Hiccup.
"So it was successful?" The healer asks and she nods, as they pick up Hiccup, and instead of taking them to the boat they put the dead on, they take him to the healers boat. "Get him out of here, we hope to see you soon" The healer says and she waves goodbye, as they set sail to the womans island. Toothless then climbs aboard where he was hiding after Brenda left him.
"Be a good boy, he will wake up soon enough" She says and Toothless purrs, and falls asleep right next to Hiccup.
Ten minutes later.
The healer walks into the shack where he has a wooden doll with details to look like Hiccup. he only needs to fool them for a minute with it, so he hopes to put it to good use, as he brings it to the other boat.

an hour later

As the boat passes by, "Hiccups" body sitting inside it, Astrid and Stoick take there bows as Gobber says his speech.
"Today we have lost a warrior, a father, a Husband, a friend. may he reach the gates of Valhalla, and do take his rightful place at the table of kings, where he belongs. may he rest in peace" Gobber says as the duo light their arrows, and shoot them. the rest of the villagers fire at it also, to show respect.
Astrid starts crying again and Stoick holds her, trying to keep her calm, but she cant stop. she lost the one love of her life. the one man that loved her for more than her looks. sure shes good looking, but Hiccup didn't just want her for that, while that's all the others wanted, her body and looks. as the boat continues onward, slowly burning her love, she sits down while everyone leaves. but Fishlegs sits down with her, and gives her a friendly hug.
"I just don't know what to do now, i lost the only husband ill ever want to get" Astrid says and Fishlegs sighs, because great loss doesn't come with many things to say.
"He was my best friend, i know what you feel. even though hes just Hiccup, what other person would you wanna be with?" Fishlegs asks, and Astrid smiles, because its true. he was just Hiccup, but that's all you ever needed.
"I would trade the world to have him here again" Astrid says and Fishlegs nods. he hears his little girl crying so he gets up, pats Astrid on the shoulder, and walks away, leaving Astrid to herself.
When Brenda heard about it, she nearly cried herself to death. she sat on Hiccups side of the bed all day, not moving, until she got hungry. Toothless went missing, probably sad over the fact his best friend, and his mate are gone. so he is most likely in a tree or sitting under a over hang. she just wishes he was still alive. she walks away, heading to her now almost empty house.

miles away, another hour later

"wakey wakey" The woman says as Hiccup slowly opens his eyes. the light is way too bright to be sunlight, but somehow is sunlight. Toothless wakes up and stares at Hiccup, who for the first time in two hours, is awake.
"I see both potions worked well for you" she says as Hiccup sits up, still feeling the soreness on his chest. "I um, never caught your name" Hiccup says and she laughs, and helps Hiccup stay sitting up.
"Lifa is the name" she says and Hiccup laughs as he drinks some water that was left next to his bed. the potions have a nasty effect on the body. one was to make it look like he was dying, and one was to make it look like he died. fakeness all the way. He gets out of bed, stumbling a bit, because he hasn't been out of a bed in a day.
the only thing Hiccup can think about is regret. he wouldn't make everyones heart break if he didn't have a reason. he knows Snotlout is coming back because everyone is weakened, and Hiccup made sure word got around.
"Thanks, Lifa, for everything" He says as he walks out. thank goodness its nice warm day out, because he doesn't have his suit, or at least he is too lazy to get it from the boat. He decides its best to get a little work out.
he gets set for a nice jog, and Toothless comes and joins him. Toothless didn't know he faked about the whole, barely living thing. But they start jogging, toothless trying not to go faster than Hiccup. hiccup is surprised that he even has any muscles, because all he does is ride dragons, he shouldn't have too much muscle. but during his jog he sees ruffnuts boyfriend land, and Hiccup freezes.
"Don't worry i already knew, my aunt had to let someone know" Erit says, as lifa comes out and walks to where Hiccup and erit are.
"I got some mail for your friend" Erit says, handing it to Hiccup. he opens it and its no surprise on who its from.
"Dear Berk, now that Hiccup Horrendous Haddok III has fallen i would like you all to bow the fuck down to me, im on my way. you all, better listen -Snotlout Yorgenson"
Hiccup laughs and leave the pair to it, as he head to a pull up bar they made with a branch. Hiccup hangs from the bar as he pulls up, 1. hes just glad that he didn't have to see Astrid sad, 2. he struggles on the third pull up, the wound on his chest is an asshole, not letting him do his pullups. Toothless comes to him, and the dragons stomach growls, of course he is hungry. luckily Lifa left some fish for the dragon. Huccup grabs the fish and feeds him, as he sits down, looking at the sky.
"Astrid, im sorry it had to happen like this, but baby don't you cry, ima make everything alright. ill be back" Hiccup says, staring at the sky.
Astrid looks at the empty bedroom, staring at his favorite shirt, thinking of all the possibilities, it really was the worst outcome to have happen.
"Hiccup, why did you have to leave? why did this have to be your final chapter when i need you the most?" Astrid says, staring at that shirt, and she screams. she would have never asked for this. Hiccup died trying to get Brenda out of harms way. He went fighting to protect her, and he died because of her. but she isn't the one to blame.
Snotlout is the one to blame.
Hiccup continue staring at the sky.
"Snotlout, Payback is truly a Bitch" he says before walking towards Erit, to get a little swords training.

So here it is, Hiccup is ok and everybody's Heart is broken. done and done. But the set up for the "Payback" theme is coming to play. and you better bet Hiccup is looking for Payback. you can guess why. so we have a fastly recovering Hiccup. a breaking down Astrid. a Toothless, and a very hateful Snotlout. really, that fucking hater. oh well, the way ive written it, i actually got a few of you actually hating him, and that's a achievement for me. so with that said, ill most likely post tomorrow, so expect it. see ya soon
