If a sentence is in italics that means that you as a character don't know about whatever it says.
"D-Dad?"
You call from the little room he left you in in the boat. He told you to stay put here no matter what you heard or saw. He wanted to protect you because you were the last family member he had.
You still couldn't help yourself. It's been 30 minutes and he said he would check back with you in 10. Plus, you've heard some crazy explosions outside.
You exited your little room and made your way to the top of the ship.
"Oh my goodness."
Looking around, you found yourself in the middle of a ship debris filled ocean. You found some other ships sort of intact, but they all looked like they were about to sink. You still looked around for your father.
"Dad? Dad where are you?!"
No answer.
"Oh no, please no… NO! Not ANOTHER one! Please.." you sob onto your jacket.
Off into the distance you could hear really loud cheering and dragons shooting fire into the air.
"M-Maybe Dad's over there…" you thought, wiping away your tears.
You walked to the bow of the ship where the wheel was and tried to steer. Looking down, you knew the boat wouldn't move because half of it was already destroyed. It would sink soon, but you knew no matter what you had to get to that island. Your dad might be there.
Giving up on the boat, you jumped into the water and began to swim. You felt the ice cold water penetrate through your navy blue skirt and jacket. The cool water touched your skin and you cringed. Shivering, you made it halfway to the island, feeling like it had been in hour since you got into the water. But you couldn't give up. Not now.
Thinking about your dad, you sped up your pace and finally made it to the island. You never realized how far you really were, trying to catch up with your breath, lying in the cinnamon brown sand. You whisper yelled a help, seeing a large group of people carrying someone on top of them, cheering and bringing him somewhere.
"H-Help.."
A woman with long brown braided hair heard you whispering, and quickly ran over to you.
She kneeled down to you and felt your face with your hands. She had a worried look on her face.
"Astrid!" she yelled over to the crowd. "Come here please! I need your help!"
You see a girl with blonde braided hair run from the crowd, seeing you and the woman.
"Valka, what happened?"
"I found her here calling for help. Her face is ice cold and I think there might be some water in her lungs from the looks of it." she frowns.
"What should we do?"
The older woman looked down at you as she continued talking to the girl named Astrid.
At this point you couldn't stay awake any longer. You could only get out one word before you drifted off to sleep in the sand.
"D-dad.."
The Conversation
"What should we do?" Astrid asked Valka, Hiccup's mother.
"I-I don't know. She seems very sick, but by the looks of her clothes she's probably a part of Drago's tribe." she says with a disgusted look, remembering what Drago did to dragons.
Astrid gasps.
"What is it?"
"T-That means… she's lost everything."
They both frown in silence as they hear you about to say something.
"D-dad…"
You then fell asleep.
"Hnn... What are we going to do?" Astrid asks.
"She didn't do anything, and I'm sure that her father deceived her into believing that
we were the bad guy." she continues.
Valka was quiet for a few moments until an invisible light bulb lighted on top of her head.
"We should let Hiccup decide."
"What!?" Astrid practically yells. "Are you sure we can trust him to make the right decision for something as important as this already?"
"Well, he is a dragon master, and I'm sure solving this problem will help him become a better chief." Valka reassures.
"A-alright. So where should we bring her?"
"To the nursery. I'll call Hiccup tomorrow to go over there and made a decision."
End of Conversation
"Mmmh.." you groan, feeling yourself being lifted up.
In a few minutes, you were being placed on a bed, and with your half-lidded eyes you see the girl closing the shutters. She then leaves with the older woman, looking worried.
"W-whats… Whats going to happen to me…"
"Uh… Are you awake?"
"Hmm?" you yawned, hearing the sound of someone's soft voice.
You woke up to see the girl you remembered from yesterday.
Quickly you got up on your bed and stare at her with a scared expression..
"Dont be afraid! We want to help you."
"Help me?" you question.
"Yes. My boyfriend's mom is coming with someone that we hope can make a good decision to help you. I'll go check on them right now."
"Wait!" you yell, but she was already outside the doors of the building.
"Who are you…"
You stared blankly at the ceiling for about ten minutes until you got bord. Getting up, you put on your jacket that you found on a chair and looked around the room you were in.
You looked through some cabinets and found medicine.
"Medicine?" you thought. "I must be in some sort of infirmary."
You continue looking around until you coughed, bringing agony to your throat.
Water, mixed with your saliva, came out onto the ground.
"Eww… gross." you thought, backing away from it.
All of a sudden, you heard footsteps and saw shadows under the door. You could hear talking.
Quickly, you took off your jacket and placed it on the chair where you originally took it from, climbed onto your bed and covered yourself with the sheets. You couldn't trust these people right off the bat, but, they thought you were a sick little girl.
"Let's keep it that way." you thought.
The door swung open and you saw the two women from yesterday along with a boy, maybe in his twenties, covered in some crazy armor.
"Dang… does he wear that everywhere he goes?" you think, almost frowning.
The boy, or maybe even man if he's qualified for it, had several locks of brown hair and was an amputee, seeing his metal prosthesis on his left leg.
He gave you the wait for a second sign with his finger and walked to the corner to discuss some things with the two females. You try to remember their names… Astrid, wasn't it?
As they talked you could only try to hear, but it didn't help much because all you could get out of it was murmuring, until you heard the guy yell "WHAT?!". You decided to keep low and lie down on your bed, pretending to sleep.
