Stoick's POV.
I had just sent down a group of men to go look for any survivors to take hostage. Those men stabbed my boy through his stomach. No man will live for cause if so much damage.
I went into the hut where Hiccup is laying unconscious. Astrid has been there the entire time crying. Yes, it's only been maybe an hour, but that blow should have killed him.
I do t know what Astrid had poured all over that, but it's healing him. I'm thankful she saved him from death. At least I hope it's from death.
I asked her
"Astrid, what was it you put on my son? You may have saved his life."
She looked up crying. I know she loves him, but I don't know what happened between the 2. But she spoke
"I put...the saliva from....Vulcan on him....it heals everything..."
She had trouble speaking while she cried but saliva? That dragon is something. Nothing I expected.
Than I heard some men yelling for me.
"Stoick! Chief we have something."
When I heard those words I ran out of the hut. I saw my men with somebody shackled behind them.
"Move, who is he? Who's the scum you found?"
Than I heard it. The same murders laugh that we heard before the fight.
I turned red with rage. When the men moved I saw him. Gregovich StrongHammer. How did he survive from that blast. He lost his arm and still survives.
"HOW IN THE HELL DID YOU SURVIVE?"
"Hello Stoick. Long time no see." He laughed after he spoke.
"Did you not here me, Gregovich? I asked you a question. And you best answer if you want your life right now."
He stopped his laughing to speak.
"Well you see Stoick. After the stunt with your son... How is he by the way? Dead?"
That's when I punched him with force. My men held me back. So I yelled
"ANSWER THE QUESTION!!"
"Well you see, after that. I ran into the water to get it cleaned. Sea water helps that. When I heard the fire coming I dived in. So now I'm here with you"
He smiled as he finished. I just looked at him in disbilief. Than I saw Astrid run out of the hut. She must of heard my yelling.
Astrid's POV.
I ran out of the hut crying and saw Stoick looking at a man.....that man. His arms missing. When I noticed that I knew who it was.
I ran over to him and punched him in the face hard. He dropped to the ground. Stoick picked me up, away from him. Than Gregovich spoke.
"Hahaha, so your the young lady who put so much grief in Stoicks boy.... Well bravo, bravo for making him recklace."
I couldn't take it anymore, I got away from Stoick to hit him again. So I did a few times. I got pulled off and I was crying. He's the scum who cheated in the fight. He would be dead right now.
Hiccup would be awake and happy. Well hopefully happy but still!! He has no right to talk about him! Than Stoick said to me
"Astrid, walk away. This man will be put in out prison. We will let Hiccup decide his fate. Hiccup will kill him."
"That's not fair, he should die."
"He will in due time. Just go check on Hiccup."
So I did as he asked. I left and went back inside to see him. When I walked in I saw the team looking at him in disbelief. Than Ruff whispered something
"I never thought he would one day die or come close to save us all....."
That made me start to cry harder. I always knew Hiccup would sacrifice more for us. But she was right. I never thought of him doing it to this point. I walked back and sat in my chair by his side.
The team all gave me their sorry's and Ruff stayed behind to talk to me.
"Astrid how are you? I know it's only been a hour or so but are you ok?"
It was hard to speak as I cried but said
"I'm ok..... It's just so.... Hard to see..... Him like this..... It's heart breaking."
She gave me a hug and it was nice. I just wish it was Hiccup's arms. He laid there so peacefully. Toothless sat by his side since he got in here.
I just couldn't believe the sight. The way he was damaged will always be in my mind. The sword through his back and his stomach. Blood all over and his armor cut through. Blood all over his neck and mouth.
It was the worst thing I had ever seen. It's easy killing and seeing blood, but seeing the man you love like this. I couldn't bare it. I hate war, knowing it does this to him.....
Omniscient POV.
After a day of the war ended and Gregovich taken prisoner, they set to leave the island. The journey was long and hard with carrying Hiccup. But within a week, the two tribes had gotten to Berk.
Once they set foot on Berk, the villagers who stayed behind, children and women saw the chiefs son getting carried. The children looked down not knowing if he is dead or not. Nor the women.
Hiccup was carried to his home and set down on his bed. He had still not waken. Astrid and Toothless stayed by his side as the rest of the village celebrated the harsh victory.
But as they celebrated, Lankton went to have a talk with Gregovich. And this talk was all for what Lankton wanted.....
