(READ THIS VERY IMPORTANT, I have a cover image I would like to use for this story,it has a picture of Halden, Jolene and Cassie on it should I use it, what do you think, I won't use it if no one comments on it)

Cassandra had finished with the disquizes for the girls, "all right, all done, now all we did to do is go down...", a wicked grin suddenly flashed her lips.

"What", asked Astrid.

"Um, just wondering, how good are you at acting ?"

The boys were still in the underground workshop when they heard the soft creek of the trapdoor, though they expected Cassie that wasn't what they found, in front of them was a viking girl, about their age, red shirt, a brown vest, and dark brown pants, her hair was down on her shoulders, and she did not have the most pleaseant of faces.

"Who are you, and what are you doing in my dad's workshop", her voice was low and softly raspy, as if she was starting to get, or starting to get over a bad cold or sore throat.

Hiccup was frightened, this girl didn't seem to be fooling around, and yet there was something familiar about her, but he couldn't quite place it, before he could answer, Tuffnut blurted out a hair-brained excuse.

"We..uh...are... here.. to fix the leaky roof".

The girl looked unimpressed, "then wouldn't it make more sense going up on the roof ?"

"Well, now that explains why it was taking so long".

She ignored Tuffnut and went up to Hiccup, "now, I'm going to ask you again, who are you and..."

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha",was a sound heard above, "you should see your faces" said another unknown girl, but that wasn't the strangest part, the strangest part was that the other one joined her, though she was interrogating them a few seconds earlier.

"Well, well, well, it seems my disguises worked after all", the boys turned to face Cassandra on a stair step, "and weren't they just amazing actresses" she said clapping her hands, as the other two females walked down the steps.

Once Hiccup got a close enough look, realization came to him, "Astrid, is that you ?", she nodded.

"Wow, you and Ruffnut looked different, we couldn't even recognize you".

"That's the point", Cassie said, "So how's it going on with the collar".

"Well, I was able to clean up and mend some of the teared and stained leather, luckily, the symbols were not too messed up but I still re-painted them with ink, but no matter what I do, the crystal pieces just won't go back together.

"I suspected that much"

"Wait, what do you mean"

Cassandra stood up to explain, "the crystal is the main energy source of the collar, these symbols, are what connect to it to give a specific date and time, I thought it might be too easy for it to just stick back together".

"Oh great, so all we have to do, is find another super powerful and amazing crystal and we'll be just fine", said a sarcastic Hiccup.

"I'm sure Halden and I... or at least I can think of something, it won't be to bad" Cassie encouraged.

He paced across the grass, his scarlet scarf draped over him, what was he going to do, he thought he had it, but somehow, someway when trying to get back it fell, now it was somewhere across time itself, he had tried to get back, but of course, that stupid dragon ran into a tree, and now he was back home.

He didn't know how to work this contraption, all he knew was that she gave him the dragon and the collar, all he had to do was steal the Mastilla, push a button, and fly off on the dragon.

But of course, life couldn't be simple, if he didn't get that thing to her before sunset on the Feast Celebration, *gulp*, he didn't want to even think about it.

The only ones that knew how to work it were those kids.

So they were a new target.

Future Astrid looked over her students, "well, you have indeed proven yourselves resourceful, Kiki and Spitboor, having Blader use both his spines and underground abilities were both resourceful and creative"

"I knew all along of my great brains", boasted Spitboor.

"Yeah, you have almost as much brains as a goldfish" Jolene commented.

"I know rig... wait what ?" he asked followed by the snickers of those around him.

The blonde ignored it and turned to the twins, "You two, are immature, you fight, you bicker, and you are not attentive what so ever"

"Thank you...uh I think...what are we talking about", asked a confused Crush, proving her claims.

"But you used your dragons gas and spark abilities to your advantage". She then walked to Maller and Whisla, Maller you showed trust to your dragon for it's razor sharp wings, but next time, keep yourself focused"

"Chicken milk turtle", she replied to the adult, still wonky over the hit on her head.

Alriiiiiight then...um Wisla, though you did use your dragons most useful ability as your choice and I admire that, you must work on when your without or limited to Eveblossom, understood"

The girl nodded as Astrid looked towards Halden, "Halden, as usual, you showed resourcefulness and trust to your dragon, and the second you had the chance to strike, you took it, well done".

"Wow", Jolene thought, "she's in a really good mood today, I wonder why ?", but that smile changed when the Future Astrid approached her, "and finally Jolene, you won, but it was by luck, it does show that your dragon has immense loyalty, but this exercise was for when with limited contact with your dragon, if you are to have any at all, I'd practice a little harder if I were you".

Jolene nodded with new found disappointment, keeping her eyes on the ground, "yes mam", the class was excused.

"I can hardly believe it, I just can hardly believe it, I win and yet the ones who lost get less criticism than me", Jolene said as she and Halden were flying back home.

"Don't get upset, besides, it's her job to be tough on everyone".

"But I'm not just everyone I'm..." Jolene took a deep breath to try and calm down, "but I guess it doesn't matter, the woman's impossible to please" she grumbled.

(Sorry if not much is going on, next one should be up today or tomorrow but now we get a clue on our villain, and some more on Jolene, read and review and see you later)
