Hello. this story happens after Hiccup is chosen to kill the Monstrous nightmare. credit to The Wizard Rider for the inspiration to make this. his story is Dragon Rider's Return. I don't own HTTYD. Please review. Don't put hurtful comments. Some Hiccstrid possibly may be included as well.

Now, onto the story!

"You did Hiccup, You get to kill the dragon!"

"Yeah, I am so..."

"leaving." said Hiccup. "That's it. Looks like you and I are taking a little vacation... forever."

Toothless sat up and tilted his head, curious at this unusual idea Hiccup was presenting forward.

"Yes. We're leaving. We can't stay. After everything I've done. How can I truly stay here on Berk? We have so leave. So eat up. This will be a long journey so eat." Said Hiccup as Toothless made Purring noises. he liked the sound. it was rather calming. he quietly waited for Toothless to eat.

After training a dragon, he couldn't kill one. It was hard to believe that he had once wanted to kill dragons. But Toothless changed everything. He showed Hiccup that everything he had Thought he knew about dragons was wrong. They were no longer beasts to him, but now they were more like friends. Toothless had changed his mind about dragons. But he couldn't change what everyone else thought.

That was why he needed to run away. Leaving was the only way to avoid killing the Nightmare and keep Toothless safe from the rest of the tribe. This was the only good solution. His father would be sad, if that was even possible. Astrid would get her wish of being the viking to pass the final test. He almost felt bad for her. He had cheated to win. Snotlout was a Viking, so was Fishlegs and the twins. But now he could put it all behind him. No more Berk. No more secret training. No more jealous Astrid. This was going to be great and he could tell.

Hiccup checked his bag. He had his drawings for tailfins, weapons, saddle designs, and a jar of dragon nip. He had left a copy of the drawings in his room because they should eventually know about his secret training, if they were smart enough to. Where he and Toothless would go he didn't know, but he wasn't coming back and he knew it. Toothless knew it to. After he was sure he had all the supplies, he had one last look at the place where he and Toothless had trained.

"Take a good look bud, cause we won't come back any time soon." After saying this he jumped on Toothless and flew off, away and never wanting to come back To the island.

"Hiccup!" Yelled Stoick. "Today's the day!"

He barged into Hiccup's room, a smile on his face. His boy! Hiccup! would become a true Viking! Who knew? One day he's the runt of the island, the next he's flying through his training. Astrid was promising but Hiccup was even better at defeating Dragons. But this happy smile faded as soon as he that saw that Hiccup wasn't in his room. Where was he? Maybe he was to happy to sleep? Perhaps Gobber knew.

He ran to the forge and busted open the door off it's hinges.

"Gobber! Where's Hiccup?"

Gobber was still half-asleep.

"Give me back my sock! That's my favorite one!" he yelled, swinging his hook around

"Um, Gobber?"

"What? Oh, hey chief. How'd you get here? And what happened to the door? Did I sleep through another raid again?"

"Have you seen Hiccup?"

"No."

Stoick told everyone to search for him. They all came up empty. The search went on all day, but no anvil. The docks, forge, armory, and arena were all empty.

"We couldn't find him Stoick." said Spitelout. "You're driving everyone into the ground like this."

"I don't care!" Yelled Stoick. "We have to find him."

"And if we don't?" said Gobber "Some of them, well not me, are wondering, when the search will stop. And what if we don't find him."

Stoick remained very silent to this. Spitelout and Gobber went on with the almost endless search.

"Hiccup." whispered Stoick, a small tear slowly crawling down his cheek. "Where are you?"

"I think this was a good idea bud." said Hiccup. "Now that we're away, imagine what we could do. Find new dragons, explore, whatever we want! The world's our's to see. No raiding for you, and a life away from Berk. No killing dragons."

Toothless just flicks his ear-flap and grumbles, clearly board and uninterested at the speech.

"I know, I know. We'll land soon."

After a while they stopped flying and glided to an island and decided to stop for the night. They camped out under the trees. As they were eating, Toothless spit out some fish and looked up at Hiccup, his ears perking up.

"Eww... Gross. I mean, Toothless, I've already eaten."

Toothless just swallows it right back up. Hiccup nearly vomits at the sight. Hiccup then lays down on the soft grass to sleep. Toothless wraps his wings around him, and they slept unaware what dangers might be might be out there watching him.

When Hiccup woke up he was in complete darkness. He panicked for a moment, then realized he was under toothless's wing. It was warm, and he didn't want to get up, but he had to. He crawled out, careful not to wake the sleeping night fury, and meet fresh air and sunshine. But Toothless had already woken up, cause he sat upright and yawned.

"OK bud, time to get going."

After eating a fish or two they took off, but Hiccup heard a strange noise. He looked behind him and saw four dragons, each with three tails, staring up at him. They yelled at each other they started flying at Toothless. Hiccup had never seen these dragons before!

"OK, we have REALLY got to get going now."

They flew away from the island, and into a storm. Even with dragons firing behind them, and a storm ahead, they still went on.

That was, before the two started spiraling. Hiccup looked back to see that they had hit Toothless's prosthetic tail. They fell towards a small, foggy island with smooth black pebbles covering the shore. The two crashed and Hiccup was tossed off Toothless, hurling him into a large rock. His vision blurred and the last thing he saw was what looked like a golden night fury defending Toothless and beating back the wild dragons. He also saw a person quickly running over to him. Those were the last things he saw before he lost all consciousness and blanked out.

What a cliffhanger! Right?

And yes, for you dragon nerds, those dragons were were triple-strikes. (sluether could have been there, you decide.)

This my first "Hiccup runs away" so reviews will be helpful.
