Okay, this is my FIRST update today. Normally, I wouldn't be able to update until later on, but I'm kind of sick right now, so...yep. It stinks, but hey, such is life. You get sick sometimes. :) Anyways, shout-outs:

xFaerieValkyriex: Who knows? *shrugs* It could have been the Outcasts for all we know, and for all I'm telling you. Nope. No idea what so ever.

AnimeAngel: Aaah, yes. I do believe it would go in that order, although I think they would rather have Gobber run the academy than Snotlout in all honesty, but hey. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. If we come to it. YES! SEND YOUR SCAULDRON OUT TO SNOTLOUT! Aquaria! Aquaria! OI! OI! OI! :D Who knows about the poison? I don't. Who knows about anything, really. Except me...I know quite a bit *rubs hands together* Hehehehe.

Guest (#1): Yes, Snotlout is hilarious. :D

silverwolvesarecool: Oh, I know. I feel so sorry for Astrid. And we're getting back to her POV in this chapter, too, so...

midnightsky0612: Poor, poor, Astrid...

amillipede: I have thought about that in the past. I just like hurting Hiccup more than I like hurting Astrid. Hey, sorry, Hiccup, but it's true. :) Maybe I'll do one like that in the future. :P

Wanli8970 FLARA SOUNDS AWESOME! XD! I WILL USE HER IN ONE OF MY FUTURE FANFICS! :D THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME!

Guest (#2): Aah, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes. Loved that episode! And WOW...THAT IS A BRILLIANT IDEA FOR A WHAT IF! I SHOULD TOTALLY DO THAT SOMETIME! No, correction...I WILL do that sometime! I'm a little backed up on requests, but I will do it! After I finish writing the fanfics listed on my POLL, I will be doing TONS of What Ifs. :) Thought I should let everyone know, you know? :) See ya when I see ya!

Hi, it's me, Astrid again. Hiccup handed over the charcoal, so now it's my turn.

I felt crushed that he still remembered so little. I was going to show him around some more. He would remember something. I would make sure of it. And if he didn't...I don't know what I would have done.

We mounted our dragons and headed off to another location: The Great Hall. I figured maybe Stoick would be there. He could talk to Hiccup, and maybe get him to remember something.

We landed in front of the Great Hall and dismounted. Hiccup squinted up at the building in confusion and wonder.

"You remember this place, any way, shape or form?" I asked.

He nodded. "A little," said Hiccup. "I remember the building itself, I just don't have any memories of anything else having to do with the building."

I nodded. I couldn't even begin to think how frustrating this was for him, just to not remember anything all of a sudden. I know it would have driven me crazy. I was just glad it wasn't me, because Hiccup probably wouldn't have been able to deal with it.

[Quit agreeing, Hiccup]

I opened the door and moved inside, the others following me in. Hiccup looked around in awe and wonder. It was so strange. He was Hiccup, but in another way, he kind of wasn't. He didn't know anything about himself other than his name and the fact he had one leg.

"Everyone here feels familiar," Hiccup mumbled. "But I don't feel like I know any of them."

He groaned. I felt bad for him. I couldn't understand how annoying it must have been for him to know everyone but at the same time not know everyone. And then I caught sight of Stoick, sitting across from Gobber, discussing something about weaponry.

"Stoick!" I called.

Stoick turned his head and looked at us. Catching sight of Hiccup, he stood up quickly and moved over. He knelt in front of Hiccup and then pulled him into a tight embrace. Hiccup's eyes widened in shock, but he must have remembered something, because he didn't try to pull away.

"Dad?" he asked.

Okay, good. So he remembered at least his father.

Stoick pulled away and stood up, placing one hand on Hiccup's good shoulder. "You really scared us, Hiccup," he said. "Who shot you?"

"Uh..." Hiccup hesitated, looking to me for the answer.

"Um...sir," I started, addressing Stoick, "Hiccup has amnesia."

Stoick's face fell. "Amnesia?" he repeated. He looked down at Hiccup, who nodded, his head bowed. "Oh son..." Stoick whispered. "How much do you remember?" he prompted.

"Not much," Hiccup admitted. "I...I know you're my Dad, but I don't have any memory besides that. I don't...I don't remember ever doing anything with you, or anywhere I've seen you...I just know you." He groaned. "Stupid headache."

"Anything else?" Stoick asked.

"He remembers making peace with the dragons, and losing his leg," I butted in. "He didn't really seem to remember any of us, but he did sort of remember Toothless, and how to work his tailfin and everything."

By now, Gobber had gotten curious and came over. "What was that about not remembering you guys?" he asked.

"Hang on," I said. "Hiccup, do you remember him?" I grabbed his shoulders and pushed him forward in front of Gobber.

"Uh..." said Hiccup, "I remember him, but I don't remember him. I know I've seen him somewhere before..."

"He's your mentor," said Snotlout. "He's Gobber, the blacksmith?"

"Ooooh, yeah, I remember...sort of," said Hiccup. "I remember smithing with him...just not much."

"Okay, would someone please explain to me what in the world is going on?" said Gobber in utter confusion. I didn't blame him. It's not like we explained anything to him yet.

"Hiccup has amnesia," said Tuffnut. "Whatever that is."

"Amnesia," said Hiccup. "A partial or total loss of one's memory caused by or due to an array of different actions-"

"In English please, Master Dictionary," said Snotlout.

Hiccup glared at his cousin. "Basically not being able to remember anything," he said. "Like when I talk to you. It goes in one ear, out the other."

"I see you remember that much," I commented.

Hiccup shrugged. "I don't know," he said. "It just came."

"Maybe you should take him to see the healer," Stoick suggested. "Maybe they have an idea, or know some way to help him get his memories back."

"Sure," I said. "Come on, Hiccup." I grabbed his wrist and yanked him out of the Great Hall, the other youths from the academy following close behind.

"That was depressing," Ruffnut mumbled. Her brother elbowed her.

"I'm sorry, guys," Hiccup said.

"Sorry for what?" asked Fishlegs. "You didn't do anything."

"Then why does it feel like I have?" said Hiccup.

"Hiccup, you...you have amnesia," I said.

"I am really getting annoyed by that term," said Hiccup.

"It's not your fault," I said, ignoring his earlier statement. "It's not like you chose to just suddenly forget everything. I know you. You wouldn't have done something like that."

"But it's just...everything," said Hiccup. "I remember all this, but I don't remember any of it at the same time. I know you guys, but I don't know you guys. It's...it's really hard." He paused. "And somewhat disappointing. Do you know how it is?"

"I don't," I said, being honest with him.

"No, no you don't don't know," said Hiccup. "I'm the one who doesn't know."

I gave him a quick glance, but he didn't meet my eyes. He looked up at me quickly before jerking away and mounting Toothless. I forgot I had been holding his wrist and kind of pulling him along. It was probably as annoying as amnesia.

[Fine, Hiccup. Maybe not that annoying. No, I won't give you the charcoal so you can give the proper explanation, just let me continue]

The rest of us mounted our dragons, and then took off, Hiccup coming in behind the rest of us as he followed closely behind.
