I'm baaaaaacccccckkkk! Okay so a little summary for this chapter, it's just a flashback of how Hiccup's father and mother knew about what happened. Enjoy ;)


"It started the night after you guardians left and when Pitch placed fear in him. He was never really gone that day, he was simply was hiding..."


"Stoick, I'm worried for our son." Valka confessed, looking down at the crib with their baby son, sleeping soundly after a rough day. Stoick looked at his wife," How's that Valka?" Valka took a deep breath before sighing," It's just... It may seems like Pitch is gone now but..." She still looked down at her son. "What if... What if Pitch comes back to scare our son, or worse? I can't afford to lose him, already he's very precious to me."

Stoick placed his hand on her shoulder and gave her a reassuring smile, "If that happens, if Pitch was to ever get his evil hands on Hiccup, we'll fight him until our son is safe in our arms." Valka then smiled, once the moon was on the midnight sky, they were sleeping soundly until they heard a familiar baby cry in his crib. "Wahh...Wahh...Waaahhh..." The parents rushed to the baby, as Valka gently lifted her crying son out of his bed. "Shhh.. It's okay Hiccup... It's okay, mommy and daddy are here, it's okay..." While she was soothing their son, Stoick noticed something on Hiccup's tiny arm. It was some sort of black raven mark on his left arm, like in the middle which began to glow in a dark light.

"Valka, look at his arm. It has a mark that's glowing." Valka did what Stoick told her and was shocked while Hiccup continued to cry. "How...When..." Stoick seemed to know the answer but before he could answer her, they heard him. Pitch's laughter, but he only appeared as a shadow. "I see you found the gift I gave your son, well if I'm going to put fear in him, I'm going to have to put that mark to control his amount of fear..."

"PITCH! I swear if you hurt our son, I'll..." Valka began but Pitch interrupted her with a laugh," Ahaha, you amuse me Valka. Here we are, once friends, now enemies. I like that, anyway. You'll do what Valka, Stoick? You'll go call for the guardians?" Stoick brought out a silver whistle that has an inscription that stated, 'Blow to summon us.' as he held on to it, threatening to blow it any second while Valka hid Hiccup from Pitch's shadows. "I wouldn't do that Stoick..." Pitch smiled, then the glow grew and Hiccup was crying even harder, causing Valka to panic. "STOP IT, WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HIM!?" "LET HIM BE!" "YOU'RE GOING TO KILL HIM WITH THAT!"

"Oh Valka, Stoick." "I'm simply testing out your son on how much fear he's holding on. If you get your loyal guradians involved in this, then I'll have no problems making sure my nightmares make your Hiccup die in fear. Or I can simply kill him right now..." He was ready to make the glow stronger but Stoick stopped him. "Wait...We won't blow the whistle, take it, so that you can be satisfied.." He handed Pitch's shadow the whistle, which he crushed it into tiny pieces. "Very wise, but be warned, your son's destiny is only beginning... Ahahahahahaha!" With that, The shadow disappeared and the poor baby was still crying until his mother sang him the lullaby.

My little brave son, Why are you so red.
Because, I had a sad dream last night.
My eyes are red from the tears I've shed.
Swollen as I cried.

My little brave son, Why've you lost your way?
I'm searching for a child whose gone afar.
He can't be found, though I've searched all day.
My sad dreams come once more.

Once she finished, Hiccup finally went to sleep, she placed him on his crib as both parents went down stairs. "It seems that only my lullaby's will calm him down... Oh Stoick, what are we going to do!?" Valka sat down, and began to cry softy as tears streamed down her forest green eyes. "Pitch has control of his fear... Why?" "Why does it have to be our son?" Stoick rubbed her back, still shocked from what Pitch said but he did his best to comfort his wife. "I don't know, but all we can do is hide this from the guardians and make sure our son is safe." "We have to hide that mark from everyone, no one must know." "That's all we can do..."

'We thought that was the only time Pitch will show up, during that, we had Hiccup were the long sleeved tunic to hide his mark, he knew about his mark but he never faced Pitch, but unfortunately we were proven wrong two weeks after Hiccup turned three.'

"Mommy, look!" Young Hiccup was outside with his mother who was hanging up the laundry, showing her his newest drawing. "Oh Hiccup, it's outstanding! Why you drew that bunny so well, I almost thought it was real." Hiccup smiled and once he father came up the hill, he showed him his new drawing," Daddy, look. See I drew all by myself!" "It's amazing son, so you only found a bunny that can actually stay still?"

"Yeah, I could have drawn a wolf, or a bear, or a boar, but... They make me afraid just like the dragons," Hiccup then frowned for a bit before his mother patted him on the back," It's okay Hiccup, everyone is afraid of something. I used to be afraid of dragons too, until I faced those fears. Don't worry love, you'll become the bravest, the most strongest viking ever." "Thanks mommy." Before the family can head inside, a gust of wind blew his paper put. "Hey, I'll be right back! Meet you in the house! Just as soon as I get that drawing! Come back here!" Hiccup chased his drawing with the wind while his parents giggled for a bit.

"He's quite special Stoick." Valka commented as they began to enter the house while Stoick nodded," Aye, he is, so deteremined to face his fears, like a true viking." They were about to enter their home before they heard a fear shocking scream of a child in the forest, but not just any child... "HICCUP!" They left the door opened as they quickly ran and ran towards the source of the Hiccup's voice as the child continued to scream,

"AHHHH! MOMMY! DADDY!" "ANYONE, HELP!"

The parents rushed to the cove and there they saw their son, laying on the ground crying while familiar dark sand was surrounding him while a tall black figure stood before them. "Pitch..."

"Oh I see you remember me." " I was just fooling around with the wind until this clumsy boy of yours seem to have fallen in, right where I want him to be." "I decided that it'll be nice for me to show him a little reminder of the last time I visited him, look at him. Such a adorable child." "He was so full of hope and courage so I decided that all he needed was a touch of fear." Pitch pointed to the crying boy who was now curled up in a ball until he saw his parents. That's when he rushed to them, holding on to them as he hid behind his mother while his tear still fell. "Hiccup, just look how wonderful you look when you have fear, so perfect."

"Anyway I have com here to now tell you all Hiccup's destiny that I created, it's going to be good." "Hiccup will of course grow up to be a misfit, rejected, alone, and broken. Until he does the impossible and becomes well beloved but... One day I'll return and place the chaos fear in his chest, making him fall asleep and dream his worst nightmares that'll make me stronger and conquer the world." He looked down at Hiccup who was trying to avoid him by trying to hide himself even more.

"You Hiccup. You have the honor of having the destiny to be... My Nightmare Dreamer. Live while you can, time is limited and not a word Stoick and Valka. Unless you two want to see your son die right now."

"We'll do what you say, just leave him alone!" "Please, he's too young to know this yet!" Valka shouted, covering her now paralyzed son.

"No Valka, he's the right age to know his destiny. His destiny to serve evil! Ahahahahaha!" With that the nightmare king was gone as the family stood in fear while rain began to fall. Tears slowly went down Hiccup's face and soon stopped as the family went home, ate dinner in silence, and went to bed. Valka and Stoick stayed up, looking up at the roof while their son was supposedly sleeping. "Stoick, I don't know what we can do now..." Before either parent could respond to each other, they heard a certain child's cries from another nightmare. They hurried up the stairs and found Hiccup under his blanket, curled up in a ball as he cried. Valka pulled the blanket while she and Stoick sat down beside Hiccup, who some reason flinched to the side as he cried," D-Don't come any closer...I-I don't want to hurt you! I don't want to hurt anyone!" "I DON'T WANT TO HELP PITCH!"

He buried his head on his pillow, continuing to weep until he felt both arms of his parents pull him close into an embrace. "Hiccup, we know you don't want to serve evil, neither do we. All we can do is not tell anyone for your sake, and you will never be evil..." Stoick tried to sooth, while rubbing his son's back. "Shhh...It's okay son, your father's right, you are to bright and strong to be evil and help Pitch... He's not going to get you, that's a promise..." The family stayed in that spot throughout the night, wishing that Pitch never came into their lives and hoping that he'll forget about the destiny Hiccup was given.
