Astrid's p.o.v.

I was making my way down to the docks to wait for trader Johann with the rest of the village like we always did as I walked I thought about past events that happened in the last five years hiccup gets killed by a dragon in the cove just off raven's point the day before he was suppose to kill the monstrous nightmare no one ever knew what really happened but we found dragon scales that were black foot prints of not just the dragon but hiccups as well.

but everyone new it when we found his dagger in the pond that was in the cove man the chief never came out of his room for 3 weeks and who could blame him losing his wife to a dragon then losing your son the same way I would do the same we never did find the body from the scales we could tell it was a night fury since that was the only completely black dragon I still have one of the scales on my wall hoping that I could kill the night fury some day snotlout had snagged the rest of the scales and sold them to trader Johann he'd probably sell anything to make some money.

then Alvin the treacherous has been terrible the past 2 years attacking almost every month and it was exhausting sure i was used to getting up in the middle of the night to fight in dragon raids but those stopped about a year and a half after hiccups death everyone at first was glad that he was gone but soon after everyone realized how much he helped the village gobbler couldn't keep up with making weapons and everyone would be defenseless in battle we ended up losing more then we wanted.

when the raids stopped everyone didn't know what happened we still don't but soon everyone thinks that they had moved their nest somewhere else the chief was both happy and sad happy because we didn't have to live on edge all the time but sad because he was planning on killing the dragon that killed his son.

but what's weird is that they must of gone outside the archipelago because non of the other villages had any dragon raids after just a few flying by now and then but they never attacked.

When I got to the docks I could see that the whole town was their waiting for Johann I went over and stood with my friends ruffnut and tuffnut were arguing about something snotlout had moved on from me and was now bothering ruffnut and Heather but like me they turned him down.

everyone was now 20 they all looked the same although fishlegs had replaced a lot of his fat with muscle and has started going after ruffnut and Heather as well snotlout and fishlegs are always fighting for ruffs attention every chance they get.

ruffnuts and tuffnuts hair was longer and they had build up some muscle as well and me and ruff had become best friends in the past few years and we've been working at gothis to make some money I was still a shield maiden and Heather my other friend who washed up on shore about a year ago had shown my how to make a very cool axe like the one she has.

snotlout still had muscle and had gained a little bit more but not much his hair was the same black and ruffled like it was years ago then there's me , my hair had grown longer I had built up some muscle as well I still wore my blue shirt and spiked skirt and I still had my axe that i got for my 10th birthday i had discovered a year after his death that that hiccup had made it for me but gave it to gobber to give to me I had always thought my mom or dad had got gobber to make it but my dad died on the last search for the nest and my mom had become very ill these last few weeks even gothi didn't have a cure for it a tear was forming in my eye as I realized I might lose the only family I had left.

I really wish hiccup was here I do miss him even though he had mess things up a lot I may have had a little crush on him but I could never tell him because my family's reputation was still healing from my uncle Finn and the flightmare incident and confessing I liked him would spread like wildfire and would completely destroy my rep.

we could only kill Alvin then the rest of the outcasts would leave us alone but no one was stupid enough to try and kill Alvin the treacherous here he comes someone yelled as I looked up from my train of thought to see Johanns ship nearing port the chief stood in front of all of us he was always the first one on the boat when the traders came around.
