Hiccup and Alaric walked inside the cabin to have a talk, Alaric pulled a chair and told Hiccup "please sit", Hiccup sat down and waited for what Alaric had to say. Alaric sat down in a chair; he cleared his throat in preparation for what he had to this confused youth.

Alaric:" Hiccup I know you heard me say this before but before you say anything give me a chance to speak out my mind first."

Hiccup nodded in respect to his offer

Alaric continued.

Alaric:" I understand that you are confused, sad and lost, believe me when I came here I was confused, sad and lost I missed my family I cried every day for them I prayed every day for them I prayed that they won't forget me and my prayers and cries fell on deaf ears, I begged the Valkyries to send me back to Midgard for I can reunite with my family and be finally at peace but I was already at peace when I came up here. I understand that you're young and you died young and that is the most heartbreaking thing to ever happen to anybody but you need to understand that this place is a place of peace and happiness now I know you want to deny this place but Hiccup understand and hear me out stop torturing yourself, you're destroying yourself more just by thinking of your death and family, I don't want you to forget them I just want you to understand that you're here and not on Midgard stop remembering Midgard stop blaming yourself stop torturing yourself Hiccup please".

Hiccup listened deeply to his words and let them sink into his mind, he looked at Alaric and said "it just seems impossible to let go "

Alaric:" it was impossible for me to but I let go of my nightmare, and speaking of nightmares do you mind telling me of that nightmare you had while you were sleeping in the forest and that vision you had at your worktable".

Hiccup:" how do you know?"

Alaric:" you show it everywhere you go with me, the pain follows you and it follows me."

Hiccup got up but Alaric motioned him to sit back down

Hiccup:" I don't want to talk about it Alaric"

Alaric:" I insist you talk to me Hiccup, if its bothering you tell me then maybe I can help"

Hiccup:" please just let it go I don't want to talk about it"

Alaric:" you said your dragon murdered you but I don't know the flashback content and detail"

Hiccup swallowed a lump in his throat and stammered "please Alaric leave me alone I just don't want to talk about it it's just a nightmare a normal nightmare"

Alaric:" waking up crying in fear isn't just some normal nightmare"

Hiccup:" yes it is"

Hiccup got up and headed to the door but before he opened the door Alaric started with "on the beach you're dragon pinned you down and you begged him not to kill you, it was a Nightfury, Toothless was its name"

Hiccup sighed and faced Alaric eye to eye he shrugged his shoulders and said "okay now you got me I'll tell you if you promise to leave me alone and never ask this question again"

Alaric nodded his head

Hiccup:" yes he did kill me okay, yes I have nightmares okay I am terrified of dragons of now after I just broke the barrier between them and us but after what Toothless did I don't know if I can ever ride or look at a dragon without being scared. I'm terrified of dragons, I'm terrified of going back to visit him I don't want to see him I don't think I could look at him without being scared now, I need help"

Alaric:" and help you I will"
Hiccup:" how"

Alaric pointed at Hiccups bed and said "lay down"

Hiccup:" why"
Alaric:" trust me on this one, I'll help you"

Hiccup walked towards his bed and layed down with his head relaxed. Alaric placed his hand on his head but before Hiccup could react or say anything he blacked out.

Hiccup awoke in a forest, but this placed seemed familiar to him, it was the cove where he and Toothless always hung out at. He remembered all the games they played and faraway places they talked about, he tried not to remember Toothless at all but he couldn't resist thinking about him.

Hiccup heard wings flapping around the tree line, he looked up to see a black shadow figure with green orbs pin him down, Hiccup yelped when he was pinned to the ground. He covered his face but was soon stunned to see he wasn't being attacked or mauled by the mass, he uncovered his face to see a the only thing he didn't want to see, Toothless. Hiccup quickly got up and backed away slowly from the creature, he was terrified out of his mind but Toothless was beyond joyed to see his master but Hiccup didn't share the same.

The dragon leaped forward playfully but Hiccup shouted "get back go away." the dragon stopped dumbfounded by his response but he saw the look on his face was the same look he had on his death day. All thid didn't make sense to Toothless he was supposed to be happy they were supposed to reunite and be a family again, why is he scared why is he crying.

Toothless walked towards Hiccup but Hiccup once again shouted "I said stop go away, go back I don't want to see you" those words were like a dagger in both Toothless and Hiccups heart. Hiccup didn't want to say these words to the most adorable creature he knew but he didn't know if he was friendly.

Toothless bowed his head down and cooed, he did it to show him he was friend not foe. Hiccup saw Toothless do this but he didn't care, no matter how many friendly gestures and movements he did he wanted Toothless out of site and out of mind.

Toothless remained with his head bowed but Hiccup looked at him with disgust, a voice rang in his head," don't hurt him, don't let him suffer" Hiccup ignored the voice knowing it was Alaric but soon Toothless looked at him in the eyes, his eyes were glossy, was he crying, do dragons even cry do they even feel pain of course they do.

Hiccup sighed heavily and finally caved in to Alaric's demands, Hiccup took a knee and said, "Toothless…buddy come here…I'm sorry" Toothless looked up at Hiccup and saw his expression changed from fear to concern, without hesitation Toothless went over to Hiccup and nuzzled him. The dragons head layed on Hiccups chest, Hiccup hugged Toothless with all his strength hoping to never let go.

Hiccup felt his arm wet only to see drops of tears coming from the dragon's eyes. He nudged his head on Toothless snout and cooed out the words"I won't let you go I won't leave you I won't hurt you I won't blame you, never. It's not your fault, your my friend my best friend"

Toothless playfully pinned him to the ground and began playfully nudging him, Hiccup broke out laughing and said " I was so wrong Toothless….please forgive me"

Toothless warbled in response and Hiccup took it as a yes
