Hiccup quickly backs off of her. "Hey Hiccup..." Hiccup turns around and walks toward his cave. "Hiccup..." I've been waiting here for you for a few days. Can you at least let me talk to you?"

Astrid follows him and Hiccup turns around. "What?!"

The full moon floated overhead and bathed the cove in an appropriately eerie greenish whiteish light. The nightfury tilted his head upward to look into the eyes of the female viking. "I can't." "I can't." "I just can't!"

Hiccup turns away from Astrid and goes over to where her as is and picks it up with his gums and brings it over to Astrid. Astrid reluctantly picks it up. "Hiccup, please. Don't make me do this." "Hiccup, please, no."

"I've changed Hiccup, we all have!" "Hiccup. I can't."

"I can't kill the one I love! There I said it! Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, I am in love with you and therefore I cannot kill you!" Astrid then hugs his neck and cries into his muzzle. Hiccup shakes her off and then turns away and resumes the walk to his cave.
