Astrid was sitting on a crate sharpening her axe when she heard someone walk up to her. "Astrid Viggo wants to see you!" Ryker barked and Astrid stood up fast and saluted him as he was second in command. Ryker scoffed and walked away Astrid didn't know why but Ryker never liked her. Maybe because she was better at fighting then him or another reason completely unknown.

Astrid never knew where she came from or who her parents where. But, that wasn't important to her at all because she had a family the dragon hunters. Astrid had never killed a dragon even though she just turned eighteen this morning. She's helped capture them off course and, knows how to kill one but Viggo always told her she wasn't quite ready to kill a beast like a dragon yet.

Astrid walked threw the bottom deck untill she reached Viggo's office he was kind of her dad in a way. Gave her a chance at life when no one else would he saved her from a ruthless dragon as a toddler that's what she was always told. She knocked on the wooden door she heard Viggo's voice from the other side of it. "Come in Astrid." Astrid hesitantly opened the door Viggo was sitting at his desk working on some experiment. "Since you are now eighteen also I know your itching for some action." Viggo paused for dramatic affect before continuing. "I'll be letting you go on your first mission with Ryker's team tommorow."
