Today was the day. The hunters were planning to retrieve a rare object from a distant island. They had spent months planning the mission. They even went as far as forging a Terror mail from Stoick, stating an emergency back on Berk to ensure the riders wouldn't get in the way.
"So, Boss. What's the plan?" Astrid's father, Arne asked Ryker. Astrid was listening intently while tending to an injured Nadder in the closest cage to the commander's quarters.
"Search the island, find the dragon, and destroy anything in our way."
"And if the riders are there?"
Ryker thought for a moment.
"ASTRID!" He called in a low growl of a voice.
"Sorry, girl. I'll be right back." She whispered to the Nadder, who nuzzled her. She rushed to the commander's quarters to join the older men.
"Do you think you could ride that thing?" He gestured to the Nadder she had spent the morning with. She nodded and smirked knowingly.

Back at Dragon's edge, the riders were all gathered in the clubhouse, escaping the raging storm brewing outside. Hiccup was doing a quick patrol of the island when he noticed a blue blur through the rain, darting towards the center of the outpost.
"Looks like a stray Nadder, Bud." Toothless darted towards the ground but halted when both he and his rider noticed the blonde girl tumbling off of the dragon. The Night Fury raced to the ground. "Are you okay?!" He worried as he raced to the quivering blonde. She was wearing a blue shirt and navy leggings with a brown studded skirt. Her arms were only covered by thin material. She was freezing. Her lips and fingers were turning blue.
The young girl just shivered and nodded in response, wrapping her arms around herself in an attempt to warm herself up.
"Let's get you out of this rain."
He lead the young girl to the clubhouse where all the other riders were waiting. Heather immediately raced to grab a blanket to wrap around the shivering blonde.
"Woah, who's the new girl? Me likey." Snotout smirked.
"Not now, Snotlout." Hiccup snarled. He gazed at the blonde Viking teen and found himself lost in her ocean blue eyes. She in turn got lost in his forest green ones.
After the young girl stopped her violent shivering, Hiccup finally began to question her.
"Hey, it's okay. You're safe. What's your name?" Hiccup asked.
"A-Astrid." She shivered.
"I'm..."
"Hiccup. I know." She stated, finally able to string more than two words together. He looked at her in confusion.
"How did you-?"
Astrid let out a guilty sigh.
"My father works for Ryker."
The riders all gasped.
"Look there isn't a lot of time to explain. I know you have no reason to trust me, but I promise I'm on your side." She patted her dragon's head and smiled.
