HI READERS!
SO THIS IS MY THIRD STORY AND IT'S A LITTLE BIT DRAMATIC. THIS IS IN THE CHAPTER "THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTERS PART 1" WHEN ASTRID GETS THROWN OF STORMFLY AND HICCUP COMES TO RESCUE HER. I LOVE THAT PART.
Hiccup was worried about Astrid.
She had been out all day and she hadn't come back yet. It's fine, come on is Astrid. But another voice inside his head was still screaming ASTRID IS IN DANGER!
He remembered the time when he was eight, there had been an attack and Hiccup was underneath his bed, crying quietly. Suddenly, he heard a scream and a bright light outside his window and went to check what was going on. There was a house on fire. The Hofferson house. Astrid's house. He quickly went down the stairs, although his dad had told him not to get out of the house, he did it anyway, that happened a lot. He found the Hofferson family cuddle up outside the house, but Astrid wasn't with them. He suddenly heard a scream. It was coming from inside the house. Even an eight year old could figure out what was happening. Astrid was inside the house. He ran to get a closer look but some Vikings ordered him to get inside his house. He remember yelling at them and one of them just picked him up and carried him into his house. He screamed, punched the Viking but it was like punching a rock. They left him there, told him to shut up or they would called his father. Which made him close his mouth immediately. He was so frustrated when they left that he started to throw things around the house. His chest was filled with worried and he didn't sleep at all.
Now, ten years later, that same felling he had experimented when he was eight, was back, and know ten times stronger.
Finally, when the sun was setting down, he couldn't stand it anymore.
"Everyone, get to your dragons we're going to search for Astrid"
Nobody disagreed with him. They all knew, even the muttonhead twins that when it came to Astrid, no one could change his mind.
Astrid didn't know how much of this she could take. She had been drifting at sea all day, too weak to do something. She tried to think about Hiccup, but even know her thoughts were starting to get blurry. She didn't know why, this reminded her the day after the battle of the Red Death.
Not many boats had survived, so it was several days until they got everyone home safe and sound. One of the first ships that sailed was the one that took Hiccup home. She insisted on going with them so the finally let her. When they finally reached Berk, they called Gothi immediately and they took Hiccup to his house. After shouting, and getting her axe, they let her be in the operation. She almost relaxed. Almost. After the operation Hiccup was breathing heavily and tears dropping from his eyes. Gobber, Gothi and Stoick left them alone. And Astrid just couldn't stand it two single tears ran down her cheeks silently.
"Astrid?" she almost jumped out of her skin.
"Hiccup?"
"where are we? What happened? Where are we? Where's Toothless? Where's dad?"
"you are safe Hiccup. We are all save. And it's all thanks to you" she said.
"Astrid?"
"yes, Hiccup?"
"why does my leg hurt so much?" she sobbed
"you should rest Hiccup"
"rest" he said dreamily "I could do that" he closed his eyes.
She couldn't give up. She had to see Hiccup again and say that she loved him and so many thing she hadn't said to him. So she fought, trying to stay conscious but she new it wouldn't take long until she got tired and fall asleep to never wake up.
