Hiccup was twisting and turning in bed repeatedly. It was happening again.

Hiccup opened his eyes slowly>

"Ugh.. where.. am I?"

He turned his head to only find out that he was on Berk, at the place where he supposedly get away from the world.

"What?"

"Glad to see your awake Hiccup."

Hiccup immediately turned his head to the sound, only to find out it was Grimmel along with two guards holding onto an oddly familiar figure with a bag over their head.

"What do you want Grimmel!"

"You know, your night fury."

"Or what?"

The guards took off the bag on the figures face only to realise that it was Astrid.

"Hiccup!"

"Astrid! Grimmel this war is between you and me! Get her out of this!"

"Hiccup Hiccup. She doesn't have to die, that is if you give up the night fury. Or we could make another deal, but with your life on the line."

Hiccup was at a loss for words.

"3...2..."

"Fine! Just leave her out of this!"

"Of course."

Grimmel pointed the crossbow at Astrid.

"Grimmel! I said that I would die not her!"

"My rules, my choice."

Grimmel shot the arrow out and a thud followed.

"Astrid!" Hiccup screamed running to her.

"H-hiccup..."

"Hey. Don't you fall asleep you hear me!"

"Thank...you...for...e-everything..."

Astrid eyelids started to close.

Hiccup stared at Astrid's lifeless body, tears welled up in Hiccup's eyes.

"Astrid... No..."

"Remember this Hiccup, I will make sure you lose everything and everyone you love."

"No... no!"

Hiccup jumped out of bed, beads of perspiration rolled down his cheeks.

Just then, Astrid ran into the room.

"Hiccup! Are you alright!"

"I-I... I don't know..."

Astrid sat beside him.

"What happened?"

"I.. had a dream... Grimmel killed you... it felt so real!"

Tears rolled down Hiccup's cheeks.

Astrid pulled Hiccup in close.

"Oh Hiccup.. It was just a nightmare, see I'm still here, let alone hugging you as we speak. I'm alright, I'm alive. It was just a nightmare."

"Astrid... I love you.."

"I know.. I know.."
