Chapter Twenty-One: Moving On…


"There…that should do it." Hiccup said aloud, tying the two ends of the sling together.

Astrid slowly placed her arm in the sling, letting it rest. "Ahhh…that's better." She replied, smiling as she looked down at Hiccup's handiwork "Heh, who knew you could actually be a healer. Kind of a surprise."

"Yeah? Well, I guess I surprise myself too." Hiccup replied, smiling sheepishly at her. Leaning over the crate that was littered with an assortment of medical supplies, he then grabbed a cup filled with some sort of concoction. "Here." He said, setting it next to her "Gothi taught me this the day dad nearly broke his arm. Remember when he stopped that yak from running over some kids? This is a pain reliever."

"You really are a healer." Astrid smiled, looking at him. Then, with a teasing in her voice, added "Maybe you should give up exploring and train to be Gothi's apprentice."

"You know Astrid; you need to take some tips from Matt when it comes to making jokes." Hiccup teased back, shaking his head at the attempt "That was a terrible try."

Frowning as she shook her head, she took the drink and swallowed it in one gulp. "Ugh!" She gagged, pulling a face "Couldn't have at least tried to make it taste like something other than…this?"

Hiccup laughed as she set the cup down and stood up from her seat. "Not that I'm aware of. Gothi taught me that. What has Gothi made that actually tastes good?"

Trying to get the taste out of her mouth, she spat out onto the deck they were on. "Ugh, well, if it helps with the shoulder, I guess it's worth it." Looking at Hiccup, who was busy sorting some of the medicines and supplies he used to treat her arm since they got back, she smiled as she quickly grabbed him by the shoulder with her good arm, and spun him around.

Hiccup stared at her in surprise, obviously not expecting to be grabbed. Before he could even realize what was going on, she grabbed his leather strap across his chest and pulled him to her, kissing him on the lips.

Hiccup was shocked by the sudden change in events, but quickly forgot about it and kissed her back. Wrapping both arms around her, he held her close as they remained in that postion. Forgetting about what recently happened, with her being captured by a maniac, being forced to teach Darien how to train a dragon, and Hiccup losing the Dragon Eye; all was forgotten for the moment as they truly enjoyed each other.

"Thank you Hiccup…Thank you for coming for me…" She whispered, resting her head on his shoulder.

"You have no idea how worried I was about you…" Hiccup whispered, resting his head against hers, and closing his eyes in angst at the memory of her being kidnapped "Especially when I learned it was Strogg that had you…"

"Hey, it's over. He's dead." She whispered with a small smile, pulling away and looking at his eyes to try and comfort him "We just have to worry about Viggo and Ryker; plus Darien and her dragon, Banshee."

"Huh, that's all?" Hiccup replied back, smiling at her. Hugging her one more time, he then asked "How is the shoulder feeling with the sling now?"

"Fine. It's finally able to relax and recover." She replied, looking down at her arm. Flexing her hand to show she had control "It just hurts a little. That's all."

"Yeah, well, you're staying in that for a few weeks." Hiccup ordered, guiding her to walk up a ramp "Or at least until Stormfly is better."

"Ugh! I'm so glad she's alive…" Astrid whispered, shaking her head at the thought of losing Stormfly for good "I don't even know what I'd do if-"

"Hey! Don't think about it!" Hiccup interrupted, gently shaking her "Strogg's dead. You and Stormfly are alive and well. And here. Not going to Thariin, or any other Hunter island. Ok?"

Astrid then frowned, making Hiccup uneasy as he guessed at what she was thinking of. "Hiccup…what are we going to do with Ukiah? I hate to admit it, but Matt was right about last night. We couldn't have done anything without him. We'd have had three of our friends killed by the mad man if it wasn't for him. Matt, Heather, and Windshear."

Hiccup frowned at the thought. He was going to have to make a decision about him sooner or later; and probably sooner. Shaking his head, he whispered "I don't know. If I'm honest with you, I'm actually relieved to see him again. I'm really thinking of letting him stay here at least."

Astrid turned and glared at him, wondering why he even said that.

"Listen, I know you two were…an item." Hiccup pointed out, rubbing the back of his head "You did a lot for him; I mean, you were the one that pulled him out of Strogg's arena! You fought alongside him and everything!" Shifting uncomfortably, he then explained "But you have to remember, I called him a brother. I treated him like family. So when I saw that he was trying to come back, I was secretly relieved. I was glad he was trying to come back to us."

"Even after he did what he did to us?" Astrid growled, her eyes narrowing "To me?!"

"Astrid, all of Berk banished me when I tried to defend Toothless. Remember?" He quickly answered "I felt that feeling of being betrayed before you. And before Heather what she did to us."

"Her case is different!" She quickly snapped "Ukiah was with us for a year! He was part of us! He was learning with us! Heather never had that, or was even with us! She always had a second agenda!"

"And yet she's living here with us." Hiccup pointed out "I'm not saying I'm lifting his banishment from Berk. I can't do that; that's my dad's call. But I can start treating him like I used to. Like a friend at least." Looking down from Astrid, he whispered "Listen, I understand how he hurt you. He did something that you weren't mentally or emotionally prepared for. And I'm not telling you that you need to forgive him; but I'm not going to treat him like an outcast anymore. I can't get myself to do that again."

Astrid just glared at him, not believing what she was hearing.

"I'm letting him stay. That's the least I can do since he saved you and Matt. Plus Heather and her dragon." Hiccup resolved "Please don't hate me because of my choice."

Breathing out a short, hot, angry huff of air, she just turned away from him. Ukiah was going to stay. And she still felt the same angry, cold feeling towards him. She knew he was the reason why Matt was even found to begin with. Closing her eyes, she just growled "Fine…but I'm not ready to open back up to him."

"And I won't ask you too." Hiccup agreed, guiding her to continue walking "Come on, let's check up on Matt and Heather; and to tell them what I'm deciding to do."

Walking towards his room, Astrid let out a long sigh. She was honestly expecting to send Ukiah away, but now knew Hiccup wasn't even thinking that. Shaking her head slightly, she walked up to Matt's room with him and opened the door.

"Matt? You awake?" Hiccup asked, peaking his head inside.

"Hiccup!" Matt's voice called out "Come on in! Heather's changing the bandages; since she's had a lot of practice with me before."

Smiling, Hiccup pushed open the door farther and revealed Matt sitting on his bed with Heather gently wrapping some new bandages around his head. A sight that brought relief to him though, was that she wasn't wrapping his eye. "How are you feeling?" He asked, walking in with a sheepish grin.

"Better. Now that I'm here." He replied, glancing at Heather with a smirk "Honestly, I can probably go boarding today!"

"Shut up Matt…" Heather groaned, shaking her head at the joke. Turning to Hiccup and Astrid, she then explained "He's still recovering. He has a nasty gash across his head, luckily his hair will cover the scar."

"What about his eye? Should we cover it up too?" Astrid asked, pointing at it, even though it was shut closed.

"I can see out of it." Matt answered, opening it up to show her "It just hurts after I keep it open for a while. I guess he just poked it. Heh, poked it with a massive war axe. Honestly, I bet it was my goggles that did the damage to it, not the axe."

Hiccup's heart quickened in beat, as he stared at the blood shot and almost glazed over eye. Tears were running profusely down, leaving tear stains down his right cheek. "Matt…" He whispered, sitting down next to him.

"Bah, it's another wound, not as serious as we thought it would be. It'll heal." Matt replied, shutting the eye and throwing a casual smile. Gesturing to Astrid, he then asked "How's the shoulder? Heather told me what happened to you when Strogg was losing."

"It's fine. Thanks to Doctor Hiccup." Astrid teased, rotating her shoulder with a smile "Give me a day's rest and I'll be back too normal."

"I highly doubt that." Heather replied, shaking her head at both Matt's and Astrid's casualness with their injuries "We're gonna lock you two in a fortress just to keep anything else from happening to you two."

"Heh, with our luck, the fort will be Ryker's or Viggo's prison." Matt joked, letting Heather finish tying off the bandage "Though I will say, it's getting old. Who wants to take my next fall for me?"

Heather shook her head, grabbing his arm and helping him stand "How about we just don't even fail? Seems to be a better idea for me at least."

"Sure, if that's even an option." Matt chuckled, getting his balance and standing on his own. Testing himself and his balance, he then commented "A night's rest was exactly what I need. I feel so much better. I actually have some of my balance back."

"Heh, guess that's a good thing, considering you basically took a hammer to the head." Astrid pointed out, shaking her head at the memory.

"Yeah, well…" Matt began to whisper, seeing where the conversation was heading "I'm alive."

"Glad we don't have to worry about him ever again…" Heather whispered, also thinking of the previous night.

"Yeah, Strogg's no longer a problem, we just need to focus on Viggo and the Dragon Eye…" Hiccup whispered, folding his arms as he thought of his failure.

"We'll get it back Hiccup, we will." Matt replied, walking over and grabbing Hiccup by the shoulder "Besides, doesn't he need a key or something?"

"Yeah…" Hiccup whispered, his eyebrows furrowing in contemplation and confusion "But he would know that. So why would he want it?"

"Let's think about it later. Right now, let's just enjoy the fact that we all made it out alive." Heather interrupted. Swinging Matt's arm around her, she then held him close by, remembering that she almost lost him.

"I guess we can do that. For today at least." Hiccup agreed, letting out a long sigh.

"So…what did you guys do with Ukiah when we got back?" Matt asked, watching both Hiccup and Astrid for their reactions.

Hiccup turned and faced the hanger, saying "He wanted to stay with Arrow, so they slept in the hanger with all our dragons."

"What did you decide to do?" Matt followed up with, not taking his eye off Hiccup.

Astrid just looked away from Hiccup, still angry about the decision. Seeing this, Matt looked at Hiccup with a raised eyebrow.

"I'm letting him stay. At least here at Dragon's Edge." Hiccup replied "Aside from checking on you Matt, that's why I wanted to talk to you. Do you think he really didn't intend to hurt us?"

"He was wanting to show Strogg that he was separate from you guys. And he thought the best way to keep you guys away, was to have you hate him." Matt confirmed with resolution "If he really hated you guys, why would he have saved Astrid? Even me, your 'brother'? The one that replaced him."

Hiccup just nodded, hearing the logic, but something still didn't seem right. Staring at the hanger, he whispered "You know, I missed Ukiah. You have no idea how sad I was when he did what he did. But if it was a rouse, then maybe we can see the old Ukiah I knew and adopted as a brother as well."

"Maybe…" Astrid growled, shaking her head lightly in anger.

"Astrid…he saved us!" Heather gently reminded.

"He betrayed us too!" Astrid shouted, glaring at Heather "Nothing like what you did. He purposely threw away everything to get away from us! From me!"

"Yeah, in orde-" Matt began to say, only to be interrupted.

"Stop! Don't say to protect me or Hiccup!" She hissed, glaring at him with fire in her eyes "You only know that we were close. You don't know how close we were. We didn't have secrets between us! We didn't have hidden intentions! We were open and honest with each other!" Looking back at the hanger, she whispered "He did save us, but I won't forget what he did to me."

Matt and Heather just stared at her, realizing there was still a lot more to their previous relationship than they were let on to believe.

"Listen, I'll tolerate him while he's here. That's the least I can do for what he did." Astrid continued to breathe, turning to stare at Hiccup "But nothing more than that. Got it?"

"Got it." Hiccup whispered quietly, nodding in agreement. Turning to Matt, he asked "Hey Matt, can you come with me to tell Ukiah?"

"Of course. Lead the way." Matt agreed, giving Heather a quick squeeze before walking with Hiccup.

"I think it'd be best if it was just us two…" Hiccup whispered, walking up the ramp with Matt and leaving the two girls by themselves "Besides, I have a couple of things I want to give him. I need to run by the forge real quick."

"I understand. I'll let you do the talking, given that it would mean more to him coming from you than me." He again agreed, walking with Hiccup step for step.


"Heh, how you feeling friend?" Ukiah asked, rubbing one of Arrow's spikes.

Arrow growled in satisfaction, twisting his head to guide his rider's hand to where he wanted to be scratched.

"Heh, been awhile since we had an actual roof over us, huh?" Ukiah laughed, scratching vigeruosly where Arrow wanted him to "Kind of nice…huh?"

Arrow rolled on his back, with his razor sharp teeth filling the smile.

Smiling at his happy friend, Ukiah then knelt down and began to roll up his bed roll. Rolling it up, he then began to strap it to his saddle that he took off Arrow. His mind continued to think about his decision, though it wasn't something he wanted to do, he knew it was for the best. At least for now.

Grabbing his chainmail shirt, he looked down at his scar in the center of his chest. The memory of Strogg ramming the blade in no longer hurt it. Rather, he felt a peace. It was over. His parents were avenged, and his tribe was safe. Though he was a Crevite by birth, he wanted to forget about his heritage. He only fought for those he cared about. His parents, for the sake that he knew they loved him, and not for being Crevites. Hiccup, because he still viewed him as a brother. Astrid, as he still loved her, but knew that bridge was long burnt away. And Berk, his real tribe that took him in and defended him. Smiling at the scar, he then pulled the chainmail over and covered it up. Strapping his dagger to his hip, as well as his quiver of bolts, he made sure they were secure.

Now, he had one more quest. One that haunted him as long as he was one his own; when his guardian Jessika disappeared. It was for himself. To convince himself that he was indeed not like his tribe, and was different from them.

"Ukiah?" A voice called out behind him.

Turning around, he smiled as he saw both Hiccup and Matt walk in, looking at him with concerned expressions. "Hiccup, Matt." Seeing his eye was uncovered, he asked "Your eye doing better? Not as damaged as I thought?"

"No, it's good. Think it just got poked rather than slashed. Or smashed." Matt confirmed, glancing between him and the packed saddle on the ground, he then asked "You're not leaving are you?"

"I figured that was what was going to happen." Ukiah replied with a hurt smile "Astrid's not going to forgive me, we all know that."

"Ukiah, I want you to stay!" Hiccup quickly threw in, walking up to his forsaken friend "I can't tell you how relieved I was when I learned you were still alive! I was angry with you, given what you did, but I was more sad than anything! You were my brother! We rode together! We fought together!"

"Hiccup, I understand that you're being nice, and letting me stay." Ukiah began to say, grabbing his crossbow and slinging it over his shoulder. Making sure it was situatied, he then looked up at Hiccup with misting eyes "But I don't want to be tolerated. I want to be wanted back."

"Ukiah! I want you back!" Hiccup argued quickly, trying to show Ukiah the truth of his claim "It's true, Astrid is having a harder time of coming to terms with my decision, but I'm doing this purely for selfish reasons!"

Ukiah was taken back by the pleading in Hiccup's voice. Looking at Hiccup he asked "Do you really mean that?"

"Ukiah! I've always been honest with you!" Hiccup replied with desperation in his voice "Trust me! I want you to stay here!"

Looking at Matt, Ukiah asked "Did you tell him to let me stay? Or-"

"It's all him." Matt replied with a smile "The only time I saw him was when he wanted me to come tell you."

Now completely torn, Ukiah just turned away from the two. "You two are making my decision to leave a lot harder…"

"Why would you leave?" Hiccup quickly asked, challenging Ukiah with his decision.

"I…I…uh…" He stammered. Closing his eyes, he let out a long sigh. "Hiccup, this means the world to me. The fact that you legitmatly want me back." Looking down, he then whispered "But the reason why I need to leave, is that I need to find Crev. My island."

"Why?" Matt asked "You don't have anything there! It's all here! For you and Arrow!"

Ukiah glanced at Arrow, who was now sitting on his haunches next to him. His piercing green eyes looked at his, as if telling him that he was ready to go wherever Ukiah was going. "No…this is for me to cut off all ties to my past. My heritage."

"Ukiah, what can you cut off? They're all gone, and your village isn't even around if you find your island!" Hiccup argued "It's gone! Nothing more!"

"No…one thing still remains from Crev…" Ukiah whispered hoarsely. Looking at Hiccup with fire in his eyes, he then said "Me. Strogg was right in the fact that I am the last Crevite. I need to close this…this…chapter in my life. Strogg's dead, but I'm still a Crevite! I need to make sure I sever all connections."

"How? Seeing your deserted island?!" Matt argued, not seeing the logic.

"By learning my last name." Ukiah quickly replied "I don't know it. I never have." Looking at Hiccup, he replied "Until Stoick decides to give me your family name again, I'm just Ukiah. Ukiah the Vagabond!" Glancing down at Arrow, he continued to say "I want to know who I was. Who I was supposed to become. Until then, I can't close this…blemish. This disgrace of what my people were."

"Is it really that importa-" Matt continued to rant, only to be stopped by Hiccup.

Being a Viking, Hiccup knew what Ukiah was meaning. It was for him to fully reclaim his honor for the things he did. "Ukiah…I wish you didn't feel that way. We don't view you as a Crevite, but a friend and fellow Berkian." Hiccup whispered "With a troubled past. But if you feel like this is something you need to do, then go do it."

"Hiccup…thank you." Ukiah whispered, letting a real, relaxed smile grow on his face "The fact that you wanted me to stay means the world to me; but this has been bothering me even before I met you and Astrid. Remember that night? At my little stall?"

"I do." Hiccup confirmed "And you still have that dagger that Astrid gave you."

"I'm doing away with it. It reminds me to much of Strogg and how he tormented almost every moment of my life." He quickly replied, pulling the dagger out of its sheath. The wolf carved in the handle was worn and chipped, adding to the history it went through.

"Then take this." Hiccup replied, pulling a dagger out from his belt. Handing it to him, he explained "It's made of Gronckle Iron. A new metal we discovered. It's lighter and stronger than iron."

"Hiccup, I was just going to make a bone one." Hiccup tried to argue, only to have the dagger shoved into his hands.

"Think of it as a reminder that you're welcome back here any time." Hiccup replied "And that you're not a Crevite."

Gripping the handle, Ukiah stared at the shining blade. It looked sharp, and was obviously made with Hiccup's pristine handiwork. "Hiccup…thank you."

"Gah! You're really leaving!" Matt growled, walking up to Ukiah in anger "We could use you!"

"I know. But this is the first time I'm doing something for me." Ukiah replied, looking up at Matt "I need to do this. For my sake."

Shaking his head, Matt then slung a bag around from his shoulder. Handing it to him, he then said "Here, it's a backpack that can be used as a saddle bag. As far as supplies go, take whatever you need from the club house and fill it up."

Smiling, Ukiah graciously took the bag. Slinging it over his other shoulder, he grabbed Matt in a hug "Thank you Matt…you're the reason why I'm even able to talk to Hiccup again…"

"Yeah, sure." Matt growled, still not happy about him leaving "Let me almost get killed again to help you out."

Laughing, Ukiah pulled away with some tears growing in his eyes.

Matt, then in a somber mood, whisperd "Seriously Ukiah, be careful. And I hope you'll find whatever you're looking for." Taking a step back, he then finished with "Remember that I expect you to come back. At least make some kind of contact with us. Got it? Or else I'm hunting you down like Strogg did."

"Deal, I'll keep in contact." He laughed, glad to see Matt not staying angry with him.

"Matt, can you leave us alone for a minute?" Hiccup then interrupted, watching Ukiah carefully.

"Sure, I'll see you in a bit." Matt agreed, turning to walk out "I need to check on Wasatch anyways. Give him that medicine that Gothi gave Heather for Windshear. And to make sure Teton isn't getting into trouble. Again." Stopping at the doorway, Matt slowly faced Ukiah, saying "Ukiah, remember, keep in contact. The last time I let someone do this, they were captive for months. I don't want to learn the same thing happened to you. Or worse."

"I promise Matt. I will." Ukiah confirmed.

Nodding, Matt finally disappeared behind the doorway, leaving the two alone.

"Ukiah, I meant everything I said. You know that I'm always honest with you." Hiccup began to say, eyeing Ukiah to watch for his reaction "So I want you to be the same with me. Alright? Especially with what I'm going to ask you."

"Alright." Ukiah nodded, resolving to live up to what he agreed to.

"When you attacked Astrid and I, plus our dragons, was that really just for show?" Hiccup asked, staring at Ukiah.

Ukiah felt a pit grow in his stomach, knowing that he promised to be honest. Looking down, he whispered "Waited until Matt left to ask me that, huh?"

"I know you Ukiah. You don't act unless you really have something motivating you." Hiccup explained, already not liking what he was going to be hearing.

Sighing, Ukiah shook his head "No…it wasn't all about a show."

"You were legitmatly angry with us? That we weren't going to help you hunt down Strogg?" Hiccup followed up with.

"With you, yes. I was angry." Ukiah whispered "I'm not going to try and excuse myself with that. I hated you for turning away an opportunity that meant a lot to me." Looking up at him with remorseful eyes, he then whispered "That was the grief and guilt I felt the last three years. I've regretted doing that since then!"

"But why Astrid? Why did you take it out on Astrid?" Hiccup pressed, now getting the full truth.

"I lost control." Ukiah whispered "I'm telling you Hiccup, this…curse! This 'Blessing of the Crevite' is real! I was so angry, that I felt all my emotions and feelings leave me! Just like last night! I was a killer! I was like my tribe!" Looking away from Hiccup, he then picked up his saddle and slung it on Arrow "I was like Strogg…" Shaking his head, he then explained "That's the real motivator for why I'm leaving. I'm trying to kill this part of me; to end it!" Cinching the saddle on tight, he then expounded "And you know what? For the first time in my life, I feel like I can beat it! Last night, right when I was read to end Strogg, I willingly stopped myself. I stopped myself from doing what I wanted to do; what I was born to do! To kill."

Hiccup watched Ukiah strap on Matt's saddle bag, and placing his bag of jerky in it.

"That's the real motivator for leaving right now." He explained, turning to Hiccup "I don't want the same thing to happen. If I can cut off all ties to my heritage, and say that Ukiah, what my last name is, is dead? Then I can finally feel like I can become what I want, and who I need to be."

Hiccup just nodded, saying "Thank you for being honest Ukiah, means that you're really trying to change."

"And I'm ready to show you." He expounded "Hiccup, I want to come back; and I'm more than willing to do anything to be able to."

Hiccup didn't say anything. Instead, he just walked up to Ukiah and pulled him into a hug. "Ukiah, I miss you. I missed the old you!" Pulling away from him, he then whispered "Go and find Crev. Send us a Terror mail if you need help, and to let us know how you're doing. Please, for all our sakes."

"I will Hiccup. Thank you…" Ukiah whispered, smiling at him. Climbing on Arrow, Ukiah then said "Hiccup, you take care too. This Viggo character isn't going to be like Alvin or Strogg. He's going to be different."

"I will Ukiah, thank you." Hiccup replied swiftly, his mind being cast back to when Ukiah had helped stop Alvin a few times during raids or battles.

"If I learn anything about the Hunter's, I'll let you know!" He shouted, letting Arrow launch into the air "Take care Hiccup!"

Hiccup just watched the two fly off and out to the ocean, not taking a long time to become a speck in the distance. "Becareful Ukiah. We'll be waiting for you when you get back…" He whispered, knowing his friend was returning. Not just returning to the Edge, but as himself. As the Ukiah he knew he was.


That night, at the club house, everyone was enjoying the night and each other's company, with more of Heather's yak chops. Though Heather herself took it hard that Ukiah left without saying goodbye, she of everyone, understood why that may have been easier for him.

"Mhhmm…" Snotlout hummed with satisfaction "Heather…You've always stole my heart, but now you've taken my stomach!"

"Uh…thanks?" She replied, unsure of what to think of the compliment.

"Seriously Heather, I've never been a fan of yak when I came back here, but this has changed my mind completely!" Matt added, loading his plate full with more.

Heather just smiled, glad to have Matt back and starting to be on the mend.

"So, what's the plan?" Fishlegs asked aloud, turning to where Hiccup was sitting and studying a map "What's our next move?"

Everyone turned to look at Hiccup, knowing he was beating himself up for losing the Dragon Eye; since he basically jumped into a trap.

"We search for the Hunters, learn what we can about where Viggo could've gone, and shut them down; while getting the Dragon Eye back…" Hiccup began to say, standing up and walking to the massive map they had posted in the club house.

"Right, I'm with you all the way Hiccup. With Wasatch and Teton." Matt said aloud, also standing from his seat.

"You're keeping him?" Heather asked, making sure he was fine.

"He won't leave. I tried to send him away again." Matt replied with a smile "So, I'm letting him stay. Two Skrills can be good for our defenses anyways. Can hit ships while out of range from their catapults and arrows." Looking back at Hiccup, he then said "I'm sticking with my decision. I'm staying and helping you out."

Hiccup turned and smiled at Matt, as did everyone else; minus Snotlout who grumbled something about Heather and him.

"Thanks Matt, we may need your two Skrills." Hiccup began to say, turning to face the map. Grabbing a quill and inkwell, he then began to draw the island where they met Viggo "I have a feeling that we're only getting started with Viggo and his brother Ryker."


Holy cow, another Dragon Boarder story done. Sorry for the late post with this chapter, took me a lot longer to write it; had a massive writers block. That being said, I hope you enjoyed it! Though it was a rewrite, I feel like it ended better than I expected; and more importantly leads better into the next story.

That's right, I'm going to write a sequel involving Season 3 of RTTE! However, I'm going to take my time with it, as I'm really burned with writing and need to recharge a little. Plus school has started for me, and writing is going to be limited severely. So that being said, if I don't post it before Season 4 comes out, I may wait and add on to the story to publish it. But I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
