The phrase "unexpected happened" is not correct or usable in written English.
It is missing a subject and a verb, making it a fragment and not a complete sentence. Instead, you could say "Something unexpected happened" or "The unexpected happened." For example: "We were caught off guard when the unexpected happened" or "I never could have predicted that the unexpected would happen."
