Hiccup’s POV

I woke up with a scream. I had nightmares again. This was the fifth time that I had the same nightmare over again. Every night from five nights ago I had started dreaming about a man. This man was no ordinary man, he was the nightmare itself, he had black hair and a crooked smile. He reminded me of a poem my mother had told me when she was still alive.

Within the time that I lie in despair,

No one gives for this misery of mine to share,

They won’t spare some time for me to explain,

The weakness inside of me,

That would drive any man insane,

I’m only here because they put me here,

No reason to escape,

When there’s nowhere to go,

No way to show my gratitude,

It’s just something called attitude,

There’s no will to win.

I sighed and sat up. That poem had been banished from our house a long time ago. When mother died my father forbid me to speak of it again so I never did though I did think of it every night before I went to sleep. I climbed out of bed and walked over to the pile of clothes that was mine to wear today. I put them on and then looked down at my feet. I didn’t have my boots and I didn’t know where I had put them. I looked around the room and finally found them tossed into a corner in the room. I put them on, grabbed my saddle for Toothless. I opened my window and then I climbed out of my room. I started running towards the forest where I knew Toothless would be.

                                                      **************

I flew through the air with Toothless, nothing could stop me from flying higher than ever now. I had a chance to be free from all that life had given me. I was a disappointment to my father and no one in the village liked me, so why should I stay there? I screamed in happiness when Toothless flew faster and faster. The speed gave me the adrenaline and courage to do something so stupid that I couldn’t believe it myself. I stood up on Toothless back and then I jumped off of him. I was racing down towards the cliffs by the sea and I didn’t care at all, I knew Toothless would catch me, he always did. But suddenly I heard Toothless growl. I turned in the air to see another dragon bite Toothless in the throat. Toothless growled in pain and then became all limp. The other dragon let go of Toothless and Toothless fell through the air towards the ground.

- Toothless! I screamed, but there was nothing I could do to save him or myself.

How could the other dragon attack Toothless? Toothless was one of the greatest dragons in the history. I looked up at the other dragon and just before I hit the ground I saw how the dragon dissolved into black dust.

I woke up shortly after my fall but I couldn’t see a thing. At first I thought I was blind but then I realized that a dragon held me tight in his paws and that he had wrapped me inside of his wings. It was Toothless.I started shaking him but he didn’t move and then I felt it. There was no warmth that came from Toothless body; he was as cold as snow.

- No… I whispered.

I pushed Toothless paws away from my body and climbed out of his grasp. There he was, eyes closed, dried blood that had been streaming down from his head. I felt tears welling up and closed my eyes.

- No… This can’t be happening… Toothless! I screamed and fell to my knees.

Toothless couldn’t be dead, not now, not when I just had found him, my first and best friend.

- I should have died to! This is my fault! I screamed in agony.

Just then a light appeared above us, the light was so clear that if Toothles wasn't laying beside me I would have thought it was one of his fire blasts. I covered my eyes and when the light had disappeared I looked up to the sky again. Above us, a similar dagon to Toothless were flying. I stared at the dragon and then it saw me. It flew down towards me and when it landed I could see Toothless smile on that dragon.

- Toothless? I asked with a faint voice.

The dragon nodded as to say that it really was Toothless. My eyes widened and I gasped.

- How? I asked without expecting an answer.

- This is what happens to the ones that's choosen by the man in the moon. Someone said behind me and I quickly turned around.

Behind me flew a girl, atleast I thought it was a girl, she had an amazing and colorful costume that covered all of her body except from her face. Her hair stood up in a cool hairstyle and I couldn't help but to open my mouth in wonder.

- Who... who are you? I asked and she cocked one eyebrow.

- Well I'm the tooth fairy of course. She said and smiled.

- Oh the tooth fai.. Wait what? I exclaimed.

I had since I was very little believed in the tooth fairy that my mother used to tell me about. My father thought it was an embarassment to have a son who still believed in the tooth fairy but I obviously didn't care.

- Yep, I'm the tooth fairy and your dragon has been choosen by the man in the moon.

- What do you mean with “been choosen”? I asked with a bit of panic in my voice.

- Your dragon is dead and there is nothing you can do to change it but he was choosen by the man in the moon for a mission, a mission bigger than everything in this world. It's beyond your imagination and Manny has declared that he needs Mord's help.

- Mord? I asked, not understanding who Mord was.

- It's your dragons name, Manny gave him that name the second he was born. Manny already knew by then that Mord was destined for greatness.

I looked at her like she was crazy. Toothless name was Mord? If the man in the moon, or Manny as she called him, was going to use Toothless what would that leave me with? Would Toothless come back to me? But she had said that he was dead and that I could do nothing about it.

- What would that leave me with? I asked, confusion and agony filling my voice.

- A normal life, without the dragon, like Manny had decided from the beginning. The dragon wasn't meant for you. She said and smiled a sad smile.

- You can't do this! Toothless! I screamed and tears weld up in my eyes once again.

I looked up at her and saw a single tear slide down her cheek. She flew up to me and touched my forehead.

- I don't want you to feel pain, I wish there could be another way but this is how Manny wants it to be. Therefor, to cause you a minimum of pain, you will now forget that I ever was here and that your dragon ever excisted. She said and a pain struck down in my head.

- No! Toothless! I screamed.

The last thing I saw was when the tooth fairy and Toothless disappeared then everything went black and I fell to the ground.
