sorry about the delay...I was at robotics camp and I wasn't home as much...anyway, here it is :)

The lower case S in "she's my sister." was on purpose.


Chapter 10

Hiccup's POV

"Hiccup, why do you trust her? Everyone who had an encounter with her would never say anything about it. If people are too scared to even say anything then why trust her?" Astrid gestured to the jail center.

"There's something you need to know about her...she's..." I didn't know how to word this.

"She's what, Hiccup?" I didn't answer her. "She's what, Hiccup!?" she yelled out of anger.

"she's my sister," I whispered.

"What?"

"She's my sister," I said a little louder. She didn't hear me.

"She's what?" She started to sound annoyed.

"SHE'S MY SISTER!" I blurted out. Thank gods no one else was around to hear.

"She's what?" This time she asked out of confusion and surprise. "How is she your sister?"

"Astrid, this is going to be the longest explanation you ever heard." First I told her the story Jasmine told me then the story my dad told. When I was finished she stared at me, shocked.

"Hiccup, we should go tell your dad." I sat down on a nearby barrel and sighed.

"He would never believe it. He'd probably think she heard him telling the story to me and added on the dragon parts. vikings are stubborn"

"So what do we do?" She sat down next to me.

"We help her escape."

"How?"

"I don't know. Give me a day to think about it."

"Hiccup, there ya are." Gobber came up to us. "I need your help at the forge."

"Okay." I got up and looked at Astrid. "See you later." Then I ran off.
