WHERE'S ASTRID?

It was an early hour at the Dragons' Edge. The sun isn't shining yet and all of the inhabitants of the island are deep asleep, except Astrid Hofferson. Astrid Hofferson is one of Berk's best warriors and shieldmaiden, second-in-command of the Dragon Riders and betrothed to Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third, heir of the Hooligan Tribe of Berk. She is currently packing her things in her satchel for she is planning on going somewhere without letting anyone. Once she is done, she quickly went down to the stables and fetch Stormfly, her Deadly Nadder, up.

"Good morning, Stormfly! Do you like to go on flying?"She asked her dragon while scratching her chin.

Stormfly squacked happily in response which means she wanted to. Upon knowing this, her rider immediately saddled up and left the edge without letting anyone know where she is going.

" Looks like you and me are going for a long heck of a flight. Let's go girl!"

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third had woken up and greeted his dragon Toothless, a Night Fury. It was early in the morning and sun's shining so brightly. He got out of the bed and sauntered to the clubhouse for breakfast. When he got in there, he greeted his friends with warmth.

"A pleasant morning, gang! I hope everyone's doing fine."he greeted his fellow riders with a smile as he sat on the chair.

"Today is okay, H, my man. Pretty fine, for now."Tuffnut replied with a bit of uncertainty.

"Sun is shining,Terrible Terrors are singing happily and yet so far, No Dragon Hunter attacks which is good for us."Ruffnut stated.

"Well for me, I've been checking out the Dragon Eye and I've found a new dragon. The Abyss Shrieker. It is a-"Fishlegs started babbling ecstatically but Snotlout quickly cuts him off.

"Shut it, Fishface. To early for your 'nerdy' discoveries. Why don't we just eat our food first and tell us your 'discoveries' later? "Snotlout said with irritation as he started to eat his food which Ruffnut cooked earlier, Yak Chops.

Fishlegs glared at Snotlout but the others are staring at him with a "really" face.

"Fine."Fishlegs finally grumbled in defeat.

The riders started eating their food. But suddenly Snotlout remebered that he didn't answered Hiccup yet.

"By the way,Hiccup. It is too nice for you to ask. Snotlout the Hero is here again ready to save the day." Snotlout said with pride.

The others laugh at this and Hiccup finally said:"Um...Okay.Good to hear that guys!"

He was about to continue eating his food when he noticed that all the others are here except for Astrid.

"Guys, have you happen to see Astrid?"he asked.

"Well she isn't in here."Tuffnut said with his mouth full.

"Duh. It's obvious doofus that she isn't."Ruffnut told Tuffnut and they started fighting each other using their utensils.

"Stop fighting you muttonheads. Anyway, I haven't seen her around today. Probably she is just training in the woods like she always does."Snotlout stated.

"Sure she is. But she never misses breakfast."Hiccup answered.

"I saw her left the Edge earlier this morning when I was about to pee. She was bringing her satchel packed with a lot of stuff, I guess."says Fishlegs.

"Is she leaving us already. No fair!"Ruffnut protested.

"Maybe she already resigned."Tuffnut suggested.

"Or maybe she'll just go to Berk."Snotlout added.

"Snotlout had a point. She may miss her family so, she decided to visit them. I think I'll follow her to Berk to ensure that she is safe."Hiccup told the others.

"What about us?"Snotlout asked.

"You guys stay. The Edge can't be left defenseless. Dragon Hunters might attack anytime. I trust you guys."Hiccup said with finality.

They just nodded in agreement. Hiccup finished his meal faster than the others. After that, he took off to Berk to follow Astrid.(hopefully)
