This chapter takes place about a month after the last one. Oh and I'm sorry I haven't used any actual names for Astrid's parents. I'll start calling them by name in this chapter.
Astrid's parents were miserable. They weren't sleeping and they were losing weight like crazy. All they could do was worry and feel guilty. Astrid's mom stirred her soup. Her dragon, a nadder named Sphinx, stuck his head through the window and sniffed his depressed friend as if to ask if she's okay."Um, Alf." Astrid's father looked up from his plate." Shoo." He shoved the dragons face away from his wife's food. Th nadder hissed but backed away. "Thank you." There was a long pause. Before Elida had a fit. "I can't go on living like this normal any more. Astrid's been missing for far too long. I'm her mother. It's my job to keep her safe. But what am I doing? Sitting here eating supper like nothing is wrong. Well something is wrong. But not for long." She kicked her chair over and stomped out of the house."Ely! Come back." Alf was still in shock from his wife's sudden out burst.
Astrid's mother jumped on her dragon. "OH not you too." Alf begged and grabbed his wife's hand. "You're her parent just as much a s me. Why don't you just go get Flamesplitter and come with me." Flamesplitter was his monstrous nightmare. Alf looked away."Okay. But what about Stoick?" "He's just as worried about Hiccup as we are of Astrid. The only difference is we can actually do something. Maybe we can even bring Hiccup home too. If we can find him too. Wait, Astrid still has his tunic in her room. We can use it to track him down. Hopefully she's found him already." Alf's eye twitched. "Why does she have his tunic?!" "He grew out of it and gave it to her for a pajama shirt. You can be protective when we have a daughter to be protective of." Her brown eyes narrowed at him as she yelled. He sighed." I'll go get the tunic." "Well hurry up." Elida grinned proudly. Alf handed her the shirt and held it up to Sphinx to sniff. "Let's go."
I really want to make Astrid's parents more important to the story. They wouldn't just sit around. Unlike Stoick, they have a chance to personally search for Hiccup and Astrid. The next chapter will be all about Letta. Sorry if that her seeing a hallucination of her mother was confusing. It was meant to be her trying to create a mother figure other than Maddie subconsciously. and it's driving her mad. She's trying to get over Maddie so she can save her friends, but she's so messed up that it's really hard. I really love Letta. Other than Clover she's my favorite OC. Thank's for reading and please review.
