This is my THIRD update today. The chapter after this one will be the last, and then I will write an A/N for the vote results on which story I will do next. :) Shout-outs:

I had never been happier to see my cousin.
Sure, Snotlout was a little crazy, and not really very nice at times, but he meant well. Or...at least I hoped he did. It was rather hard to tell, in all honesty.
Anyways, Snotlout flew over us, mounted on Hookfang. He saw us, and then turned to the ship and shouted, "I found them!" Typical Snotlout. Always taking the glory. But I didn't care, even if Astrid and I had really found them.
"Hey!" shouted Astrid. "You gonna keep boasting, or are you gonna help us!?"
"What-ever," said Snotlout. "You guys are no fun."
He swooped right over us, and Hookfang plucked us off the ice, holding one of us in each his talons. I just barely stifled a scream. Hookfang had grabbed me by my bad shoulder. But I didn't feel like it mattered too much.
The Monstrous Nightmare flew back over the ship and dropped us on the deck. We landed awkwardly, halfway on top of each other, our limbs tangled in an even more embarrassing way.
We got up...just to have our dragons crash into us at full speed. Stormfly practically pushed Astrid overboard, and by the way Toothless was licking me, it was as if I had been soaked in the ocean.
"Okay, okay Toothless! Stop! Stop bud!" I laughed.
Of course, he didn't stop. He couldn't stop. It was hilarious how a Night Fury; the unholy offspring of lightning and death itself, was like a harmless puppy when I'm around. It was rather humorous.
As soon as Toothless decided to stop licking me, he allowed me to get up...aaaand then my Dad ran up to me and hugged me himself, either ignoring the fact I was covered in Night Fury saliva, or not noticing.
"You're alright!" he shouted. "We were looking everywhere for you two!"
"No kidding!" shouted Snotlout as he landed Hookfang on the deck, dismounted, and walked over to us. "You should have seen it! First it was Outcast Island, then Berserk, and then we were heading back to Berk to see if you guys made your way back and BOOM. We see you two floating on an ice block! An ICE BLOCK!"
At that moment, Fishlegs, Ruffnut and Tuffnut raced forward. Fishlegs hugged both me and Astrid at the same time, crushing us with our feet dangling about a foot off the ground.
"You guys are okay!" he shouted.
"Well...we were..." I choked out. "Fish...Can't...breathe...again-"
"Oh, sorry!" he shouted. He let Astrid and I go, but we fell backwards onto the deck.
"An ice block..." Snotlout continued to rant on.
"Did you guys blow anything up!?" shouted Tuffnut.
"If you didn't..." said Ruffnut, "why didn't you!?"
"No, we didn't blow anything up," said Astrid. "Probably for the better, too."
"Dagur kidnapped us," I said. "He took us to Freezing To Death."
"Freezing To Death!?" my Dad shouted.
"Dagur had a secret base set up there," Astrid explained just as I was about to do so. "He took Hiccup and I there so you guys wouldn't find us on Berserk."
"Clever," my Dad said.
"Ahh, you could say that," I said, turning up my palms and shrugging. "Dagur's more of an...ah...loose cannon, if you ask me."
Everyone besides Snotlout laughed.
"An ice block," he muttered. "An ice block..."
"Are you done?" I asked.
"NO," said Snotlout. "Not until you explain!"
On the entire sail back to Berk, Astrid and I took turns explaining all that had happened to us while we were on Freezing To Death. The others seemed pretty impressed that we made it out alive, although we'd been through worse times than that before. The important thing was we got out A-Okay.
When we got back to Berk, my Dad sent Astrid and I straight to Gothi's, just so she could check up on us and make sure we weren't seriously injured. It then occurred to me that I hadn't told anyone about getting my memories back. I would have to do that sometime.
That evening at the Great Hall, we were crowded by people and questions. So, I decided it would be the perfect time to tell them about my amnesia problem being solved.
"I have an announcement!" I shouted. Everyone instantly turned to me. "I have regained my memories!"
