Well here is Chapter 2 of Double Sided 2! (Hey that rhymes! I think). I'm so sorry! This chapter was SUPPOSED to be out yesterday but i got sidetracked and busy ALL DAY and never got more than 15 minutes to write in the ENTIRE DAY. So i finished it today! I am so sorry and i hope to do better.
CHAPTER 2: HE HAS RETURNED
Toothless was asleep, resting his entire body after the previous night of running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Except he wasn't a chicken, and he wasn't running around for the hell of it.
Suddenly, he woke up to the sound of the huge dome opening slowly. He only opened one of his eyes to see Hiccup and Astrid run in. Toothless then sighs and goes back to sleep.
Hours ago, at the first sign of light, Hiccup ran all the way to Astrid's hut and woke her up, he then explained the situation and they quickly ran off to find Toothless.
"Toothless!" Hiccup yells and skids to a stop in front of Toothless, fearing that he was injured. Hiccup looked Toothless over a couple of times before realizing that the dragon wasn't injured, he was exhausted.
Astrid walked over and sat down right next to Toothless, she slowly started petting his head. After the Nightmare T Incident years ago, she had been unable to stand in the same room with Toothless without freaking out, but she eventually worked past it. It was hard considering the words Nightmare T had said on the same night Toothless had been fatally injured "Say one fucking word and I'll kill Hiccup and eat his heart"
Astrid had become silent until she was sure Nightmare T was completely gone, she didn't want Hiccup to get killed because of her mistake.
"We need to tell everyone, the Berserkers, the Outcasts, the Defenders of the Wing, and every single one of our allies," Hiccup says and Astrid nods, they had to tell everyone the worst news possible...He has returned.
Eventually, they had moved Toothless up to the clubhouse and gathered everyone there. Stoick, Gobber, Dagur, Heather, Mala, Throk, Alvin, and a few others where all gather they're along with the other dragon riders.
"I have something important to announce! Nightmare T has returned" Hiccup announces and all the dragon riders, along with Stoick and Gobber, freeze and their eyes widen. While everyone else tilts their head confused.
"Umm, Hiccup, who are you talking about," Dagur asks and Hiccup remembers that he never told his allies about the Nightmare T Incident.
"Let me explain, every creature has a good and an evil side. Dragons are better at keeping it contained then humans, but one day i managed to make Toothless snap and his bad side took over. Then his bad side got a separate body from Toothless and got set on making Toothless' life a living hell that he would never escape from. We managed to help Toothless banish Nightmare T to a world in which you can enter but cannot exit, but somehow Nightmare T is back" Hiccup explains and Heather smiles.
"If Nightmare T is anything close to Toothless, then we can handle this. All we need is to get you in front of him and..." Heather starts and Hiccup shakes his head, causing everyone to gasp.
"Nightmare T is nothing like Toothless, while Toothless is a sweet and caring dragon, Nightmare T is his opposite, set on making Toothless' life a living hell, Nightmare T has killed many people and will try to kill many more if we don't stop or kill him. Nightmare T is the one who killed Snotlout" Hiccup explains and all of Berk's allies realize how grave the situation truly is.
"What can we do" Mala asks and Hiccup paces around for a few seconds before coming up with an idea.
"Maybe if we can capture Nightmare T by luring him, we can kill Nightmare T! But what thing will be enough to lure Nightmare T into a trap?" Hiccup asks and the Twins come up with an idea.
"What about Toothless? Nightmare T hates Toothless and wants him dead, so why not have Toothless being the bait for the trap" Tuffnut suggests and Hiccup shakes his head fast.
"I'm not risking Toothless' life" Hiccup states and then everyone looks behind him, Hiccup is confused for a few moments before he hears a familiar voice.
"I'll do it, just tell me what i have to do," Toothless says and rubs his aching neck, Hiccup then turns around to face Toothless. Hiccup was gonna say no but he KNEW it was Toothless' choice and that he couldn't stop him.
"Toothless, bud..." Hiccup says and Toothless shakes his head, his eyes showing that he had to do this.
Hiccup went over to Stoick while Toothless and the rest of the gang discussed the trap.
"Dad, do you have the hallucination prevention herbs?" Hiccup asks and Stoick nods, handing the herbs to Hiccup.
"Just give them to your dragon, and they'll take effect in a minute or two," Stoick says and Hiccup nods, thankful for the instructions.
They knew how to do the trap, all they had to do was set it up and wait for their prey.
The sun had just set and everything was in position, Hiccup was standing at the dome control lever, ready to spring the trap. Toothless was standing at the highest point in Dragons Edge, to where ANYONE could see him.
Everyone else was hidden inside the dome, ready to rope up and kill Nightmare T when the trap was sprung.
Toothless looked over Dragons Edge before spotting Nightmare T up by the clubhouse, stalking.
"I'M OVER HERE!" Toothless yells as loud as he can and then runs to the trap after making sure Nightmare T saw him.
He sprinted through Dragons Edge, Nightmare T trying his best to keep up with Toothless. Toothless was almost to the trap when he saw blood everywhere and he felt his heart rate rise.
He knew he was hallucinating, but it was causing a bad panic attack. And a panic attack right now would be fatal.
"N-N-No, n-not now" Toothless moaned as he collapsed, he tried his best to keep his heart rate down but it wasn't working.
Hiccup noticed Toothless, breathing heavily and trying to remain calm, that's when he realized that Toothless was having a panic attack.
"TOOTHLESS! CATCH!" Hiccup yelled and through the bottle containing a liquid version of the herb that he had made earlier.
Toothless caught the bottle in his mouth and swallowed it whole, hoping that his stomach would make quick work of the lid to it so that the herb would get into his bloodstream.
Toothless slowly started crawling and limping his way over to the dome, he made it almost there when he finally felt the herb enter his bloodstream, causing the hallucinations and panic attack to slowly fade away.
Toothless just barely manages to jump out of the way, causing Nightmare T to fall into the arena. The arena dome slowly closes and Nightmare T try's to escape but fails and is shut in the dome.
"NO!" Nightmare T roars and continues trying to escape, that's when the lights inside the dome go out.
"NOW!" Dagur yells and everyone quickly ties Nightmare T up and start holding him down. They knew they wouldn't be able to do it for long.
"Hurry up and kill him!" Stoick yells as Toothless manages to rush into the arena and see Nightmare T pinned down and ready to be killed.
Toothless then froze upon looking into Nightmare T' eyes, having a flashback to the Nightmare T Incident. "If i killed you, i would be just like" Toothless remembered and found himself froze, he tried to move but couldn't work up the will to do it.
"HURRY U..." Dagur yells but then loses his grip, along with Mala and Heather. Causing Nightmare T to break free. Nightmare T realized the situation and he quickly noticed Astrid, he smirked and bite down on her arm before running off, dragging her with him.
"HICCUP! TOOTHLESS!" Astrid yells as both she and Nightmare T disappear into the wildness, that's when Toothless snaps back to reality and he chases after them.
He runs and sprints through the forest, trying his hardest to catch up but falling behind just a bit too much.
He eventually stumbles upon a severed arm and severed leg, both sitting in a pool of blood. That's when he hears a girl scream in the distance and he realizes something...
Astrid's gone.
Toothless just continued staring at the leg and arm, horrified that this had happened again, first, Snotlout. Now Astrid? Toothless was guilt-ridden and shaken to the core. He couldn't even breath properly.
Eventually, the rest of the group caught up to him, and everyone started mourning Astrid. With Hiccup going through a lot of emotions.
"I don't...she can't...this...how," Hiccup said and started pacing around, he was shifting from sadness to anger to blame to loss to scared, he didn't know what to do.
"Why did you KILL HIM! IF YOU HAD KILLED HIM, ASTRID WOULD STILL BE HERE! SAME WITH SNOTLOUT, JUST ASK HIM! OH WAIT, HE COULDN'T BE HERE TODAY!" Hiccup yells and Toothless whimpers, backing up. Everyone was shocked that Hiccup was actually yelling at Toothless, who is his best friend.
"You know your problem, Toothless, for such a big strong Night Fury. YOUR SOFT, you DIDN'T POUND NIGHTMARE T INTO A FLESH PANCAKE WHEN YOU HAD THE CHANCE! MANY CHANCES IN FACT!" Hiccup yells while throwing his arms around in the air, they could swear Hiccup was actually close to physically trying hurting Toothless. Hiccup was blowing over with rage, and it hurt Toothless to the core.
Toothless closes his eyes and try's to take in a deep breath to keep himself from crying, it just hurt to listen to this.
"I-I'm afraid that Astrid's death has impaired your better judgment," Toothless said, trying to show Hiccup what he was doing.
"I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!" Hiccup yells and then starts crying, Toothless just backs away a few feet. If Hiccup wanted to hurt Toothless, he sure did it with those words.
Toothless ran off into the forest, with it still being the middle of the night. That's when Hiccup fully realized what he had said to Toothless, and he realized that before running off, Toothless was crying...
"Toothless...oh no, what have i done" Hiccup barely whispered under his breath and collapsed onto his knee's, feeling weak
Toothless couldn't think, he couldn't feel, he couldn't even breath at this point. His heart had been broken by the person closest to him.
He wandered around, running into multiple dragons. He eventually found a cave, he made his way into the cave and curled up, sobbing and crying.
"Why..." Toothless moans and buries his head in his chest. That's when he hears a faint laugh. He looks up and see's Nightmare T standing outside with a grin.
"Nice to see you here, unfortunately, I'm a bit too full at the moment, I'll just have to come back later when I'm hungry" Nightmare T says and pats his stomach, Toothless snarls while tears continuing rolling down his face in droves.
"Haven't you ruined my life enough already?" Toothless asks, weakly standing up to face Nightmare T.
"Nope, your life won't be ruined, it will be ended," Nightmare T says and charges. Toothless presses his entire body against the back of the cave, he closes his eyes and waits for the end to come.
That's when he hears a blast go off, he opens his eyes to see a gray six-eyed medium-sized dragon standing off in the distance, smiling. The cave's entrance then collapsed before NIghtmare T could get in, the six-eyed dragon then faded out of existence.
Toothless just curled up inside the cave, crying his eyes out. His heart had been broken by his best friend, and now he truly was completely broken.
Toothless was a broken dragon, and nothing could fix him except for himself.
That's a wrap on CHAPTER 2, CHAPTER 3: THE BROKEN will be up sometime soon. Please leave a review and tell me if you liked the chapter or not, and also please give me some constructive criticism. Thanks!
Note: The grey six-eyed dragon is the same size as Toothless. And also Astrid might not be dead forever :) But I'm not confirming anything!
