-Hiccups attempt-(No ones POV)
Hiccup was gonna do it. He started sobbing silently for a short while in his room, he kept thinking to himself 'it's best for everyone'.
He got himself up and wiped of the dry tears from his face. He went down the stairs to find his father revising all of the village plans and construction works.
Hiccup silently went back up the stairs and placed the note in his fathers bed, He took off his fur vest and placed it also in the bed with the note on top of it.
He walked towards his fathers bedroom door, but before he could open it he looked back at the note and vest. He thought to himself 'I'm doing the right thing'
He stared at the note and vest for a few moments before leaving. He ran to his room and locked the door. He reached under his bed and pulled out a rope. That rope had been there for 2 years, since the first time he tried to hang himself.
He placed the rope beside his bed and went towards the small drawer next to his desk. That's where he had his favorite cutting dagger. He took it out and placed it on his desk.
He wanted his father to know what his only son had been doing since he was 11.
He took the rope.
He quietly walked to his window and escaped by jumping of. It wasn't a hard drop, about 15 feet. He got up and started running to the forest. Little did he know that the 5 nightmares saw him with the rope and started to follow him.
-Hiccups POV-
'Im almost there' I thought to myself.
I kept running and running not being aware of my surroundings. I tripped a few times, my feet were killing me, but I didn't want to stop. Finally I reached Raven Point. I analyzed my surroundings trying to find the perfect tree.
Finally I found the perfect tree and next to it a log I could stand on.
"Perfect" I said to myself.
I tied the rope to the tree and made sure it was stable enough to hold me.
I placed the log under the rope and clime on top of it.
I took a deep breathe and said to my self 'Goodbye'.
The log roles over, I feel my legs kicking violently.
Everything is starting to go dark fast.
'A few more seconds and I'll be with mom, I'm so close I can feel it.
But suddenly I hear screaming voices from the out side and before I know it I'm free from the rope and I feel someone catch me.
Am I dead, probably'.
But before I can see the person or the people that cached me. Everything goes black and I loose consciousness.
-No ones POV-
Astrid, Snotlout, Fishlegs, Ruffnut and Tuffnut didn't know what to think in that moment.
Hiccup the Useless tried to commit suicide.
They all stared at Hiccups body lying in the grass unconscious.
"I-I...can't believe he tried to do that" said Astrid
"I don't understand why would he try to do such a horrible thing" said Snotlout
"I know why" said Fishlegs "He tried to kill himself because he believes that he doesn't have a purpose, he thinks the world around him is nothing but bad. He has been supporting all the neglect, beating and insults all his life..."
The others looked down in shame.
Snotlout was the first to cry, everyone shocked at the tears dripping from his face.
"You know..." Said Snotlout still crying "I never meant for things to go this far...He-He's family and I do love him..."Snotlout took a glimpse at his cousin.
Fishlegs put his head in Hiccups chest. He heard a "ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum"
"Guys he's alive, he has a heartbeat" Fishlegs shouted in happiness.
They all sigh in relief.
"He's my family, and I won't give up that easily"
Snotlout picked up the body and started walking towards the village.
The others followed him shortly.
"He will survive this" Snotlout said.
The others just stared at each other.
They all started crying and sobbing.
Thinking about the memories they had with him even thought most of them weren't good ones. They always ended with him being humiliated or beaten.
They started crying even more the moment they realized they never really had good times with Hiccup.
-Hiccups House-
Stoick had just finished his duties as chief.
He got up and walked up the stairs to his room, he assumed Hiccup had already gone to sleep.
He walked in his room and noticed Hiccups vest in his bed along with a note.
He stared at it weirdly as he picked it up.
'Whats going on' He thinks to himself
He opens it and begins to read.
As he read the words of the page, he started to feel a shortness of breath.
"Hiccup would never be capable enough to do this...would he"
When he was done reading the poem he started sobbing and crying.
He ran down the stairs and went outside and started running towards Raven Point.
-Back with the 5 nightmares-
They all kept thinking about Hiccup.
"Guys were almost there, the village is not that far away from here" Fishlegs pointed to a path that leads to the village.
"Perfect...Do you guys think he will be able to forgive us" added Fishlegs
The others didn't say a word. "I think so...the important thing is that we apologize and actually mean it" Astrid said glaring at Hiccups Body
"We have to stop everything...the beatings, the insults, the neglect...everything" Said Snotlout
"Imagine if we weren't there, imagine if we would have never followed him...Imagine if he would have actually done it?!" Tuff said barely above a whisper.
But still loud enough so everyone heard.
The others froze and tears began to fill there eyes. "He tried to kill himself...Key word:tried, he was not successful" Said Fishlegs
"If he would have done it, I would never forgive myself... I can't imagine a world without him" Snotlout said loudly
Suddenly they all stopped. They heard a noise, like someone was running towards them.
They looked around and only saw darkness.
The noise was getting louder, the person that was running towards them was getting closer and closer.
Suddenly in a split-second They saw there chief jump out and land on the floor right in front of was looking down.
"Oh my Gods, Chief are you alright" shouted Astrid
"No, no where is my son, where is he I have to find him"He said still in the ground with tears in his eyes.
They all froze and looked at each other.
"He's here we have him...he's alive" added Snotlout
At these words the chief shot up and looked at his son laying in Snotlouts arms.
" Oh, my son, how did you find him, where did you find him, and how is he still alive...The note said he was going to do it" The chief said the last part nearly above a whisper.
"Well Vast it's kind of a long story" Ruffnut said loudly.
" I do not wish to hear it now. We need to get Hiccup to a warm safe place and have an investigation of why he tried to do this. I would like to know what my only son has been doing in his room for years" Demanded Stoick.
The others nodded in respect and did what there chief ordered.
