HTTYD - Truth or Dare - RTTE

Living with the Scares and What a Strange Dream

The sun had risen over the edge but the light or the twins morning show wasn't what woke everyone up, instead...it was a scream.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Dagur was now running around the hut screaming his head of, trying to pry of the creepy mask of him while Hiccup was trying to calm him down.

"Dagur, calm down!" but it was pointless. Now Dagur was seriously out of control cause now he was swinging Hiccup's inferno all over the place.

"GETITOFFMEGETITOFMEGETITOFME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"How has this hut not been set on fire yet," Toothless grumbled but then jerking back, avoiding his tail catching fire. Hiccup tried to pry the mask of him but each time having to dodge one of Dagur's blows. And then Astrid burst into the hut.

"What is going on here," she asked.

"Dagur's gone insane what do you think!" Toothless yelled before jumping up to avoid a slash of the inferno. Hiccup (somehow) managed to  grab Dagur's hands and pin them behind his back.

"Dagur seriously, as your friend, get it together,"

"Yeah, think of your sister," Toothless said and dodged another swing, "WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME?!?!?!!?!" and he began to whine loudly. 

"Shut it Toothless!" Dagur yelled leaving Toothless shocked.

"He knows what I'm saying?" Dagur struggled frantically before Astrid pulled the mask off.

"Now breathe," she said. Dagur took in deep breathes and calmed down.

"Where did this mask even come from?!" he yelled.

"What did I tell you about staying calm," Hiccup said and let go of Dagur's hands.

"Ok, I'm calm," he said and he picked up the mask but then threw it away.

"Twins," he said through gritted teeth and then the others came bursting in.

"I heard the scream, what happened, did someone die?" Snotlout asked hurriedly. Then Dagur shoved the mask in his face, making the stocky Viking yelp and hide behind Toothless.

"This, " Dagur said pointing at the mask," is what happened,"  Gustav scoffed.

"I bet I could live with that," 

"Alright then, I dare you to stay in your hut all night while these kinda things are all over the house and while I tell scary stories," Dagur said and waved the mask in front of Gustav's face. And then, the light's turned out for both Dagur and Gustav, making him yelp in surprise. "I know of someone, a little girl. A girl...about your age, innocent, kind, likeable...until...one day...she heard a knock outside her bedroom door," now Gustav was shivering, "she felt something pin her to her bed. She never opened her eyes because she was too scared to, but when she did...she saw...a dark shadow...looming over her bed...and that was the last thing she ever saw..." Gustav was now sweating from fear, his heart beating fast and trying his hardest not to scream but it all came crashing down when he heard a loud noise. He screamed and ran out of the darkness that just so happened to be created by Toothless when he covered the two with his wings. Dagur and the others laughed. "Wimp," he said.

"Nice one bud," 

"I should really do more of this," Toothless laughed to himself. 

"Hey, I have a question," Fishlegs said, "where's Tuffnut?" And as if on cue, Tuff bounded into the hut, spinning around with Chicken in his arms.

"I found her! I found her!" he exclaimed but the others either rolled their eyes or face-palmed, not really caring about Tuff's 'achievement'. 

"So since Gustav is too chickened out to play his part and since he's the fake me, I'll go," Snotlout said, "ok Heather, truth or dare?"

"Truth,"

"Ok...what's the weirdest dream you've ever had," Heather thought for a moment, recalling her mind back into the past.

"Hmm...I guess it would have to be time I was maybe six or something," she began, "so I was in my room reading a book when all of a sudden, a wolf, around the size of Toothless." Toothless ears perked up at that.

"There's no way there's a wolf the size of me,"

"It was a blueish, grey colour with gleaming, ice-blue eyes growling. I stared at it, not doing anything until it fired some sort of icy blast at me. I dodged it but the second time it shot , I was hit. I then felt ice travelling through my body, as if it was cocooning me, but before it could get to my upper half I then found myself standing in a hall. People were running around, screaming as if we were being attacked and it turns out, they were being chased by these weird looking humans in suits. They were what you would see through the vision of a Snow Wraith and they had ice skates on even through the ground was wood," no one even said anything because it was so weird, "eventually, on of those suited people touched me and I collapsed in heat as I felt it spread through my body and then somehow, I ended up in a training arena. Weapons were scattered all over the place and in the middle was a giant squirrel just standing there. The last thing that happened was a Whispering Death drilled its way out of the ground and lunged at me before I woke up," Heather finished her story and the others looked at her like she was a complete wacko. 

"Someone repeat that in Norse," Snotlout said.

"You asked for it,"

"Wait, so basically, every time you collapsed, the scene changed," Astrid said. Heather nodded.

"Well that's a strange dream," Dagur said before walking away.

"What do you mean 'strange', that pretty much defies the meaning of strange," Toothless complained.

Well I really have nothing to say apart from this: Heather's dream wasn't made up. I had that exact same dream when I was around six.
