Hiccup POV

We got out of the collapsing building and caught back up with the others. She started to have a conversation with Toothless and the other dragons that we couldn't understand a word of. Snotlout whistled. "She's a nice girl. I'm gonna get her to be my girlfriend." He boasted. I rolled my eyes.

"You do realise that she does speak English, she just prefers not to, if possible." I pointed out. Andra looked up. She spoke in the same language that she usually does and Hookfang set himself on fire. Nico and the demigods started laughing. Andra started to droop. Her head felt hot. "Andra is burning up. Her head feels hot."

"Let's get her to Berk as soon as possible." And we flew faster.

We landed and mom greeted us. She looked at Andra and immediately took her into our house. She came back out. "What happened with Andra? Why is Snotlout sitting in the trough? And why won't Andra speak English?"

"I don't know. Hookfang lit himself on fire. She speaks dragon more than English. Will she be okay?"

"Can't tell. What did Dagur do to her?"

"We aren't sure."

"It's best to send some of the demigods back home. Having too many people won't help." I nodded. I went back to the others.

I reached the others and told them the situation. They did agree that some of them would have to leave. They also decided that three of them should stay. "Who?" They looked at each other and Nico put his hand up first. Then Percy and Annabeth. "Okay, Percy, Annabeth and Nico will stay. Don't worry, there are no monsters other than dragons." I told them. Thankfully, it is true. There have been no monster attacks apart from when we used to fight dragons. We flew off.

Percy's POV

We flew to the island with the portal on it and waved goodbye to our friends. As they were about to continue, Reyna came over. "Please tell me if Andra is alright. She seems nice and is only mean because she is trying to be protective of her family. I heard a saying, 'protect your own before yourself.' Keep that in mind. See you when you get back!" Reyna waved at us then left. I looked over at Nico and remembered about the conversation we were supposed to have on the beach.

"Nico!"

"Yeah?"

"Why do you want to help Andra? It doesn't seem you." He blushed and Annabeth hit his arm and smirked. I raised an eyebrow at her.

"Nico has a crush on someone." She said like an Aphrodite girl. I raised both my eyebrows. It suddenly clicked.

"Oh...he has a crush on Andra. Don't worry Nico, she is more likely to pick you than Tuffnut, Snotlout, or Fishlegs." He looked up.

"You think so? I thought she might choose a son of Ares, like Snotlout, or a son of Athena, like Fishlegs."

"Nah, she likes you remember. She actually gave you a compliment." I was referring to the fight in the arena. Nico was the only boy that she didn't knock unconscious. "Let's go see how she is doing." I suggested. We flew off the island and headed back to Berk.

We reached Berk and found Gustav standing there, very worried. We sprinted over to him. "What is it?! Is Andra getting better?" Nico rushed at him.

"No! Her fever is getting worse. You might want to check on her." Gustav told us. We sprinted to Hiccup's house. She was there, on the bed and very pale. Valka came through the door with a bowl of chicken soup.

"She isn't doing very well. We need to get Gothi." She told us. Hiccup came through door on Toothless, with an elderly lady behind him. She jumped off and walked over to the bed. Her and Andra had a conversation in dragon. Gothi then wrote some stuff on the floor. Fishlegs looked at it.
