Soon, Astrid and the twins arrived to the Great Hall.
Snotlout, Fishlegs and Stoick were already there.
"Now that everyone is here, let's start."
The twins and Astrid got seated.
"Well, we all know the troubles Berk is facing some problems. Beside from the dragon raids, we still have some unfinished business with the Outcasts. We might not have enough food supplies."
"yeah but why bother talking to us about this?" Fishlegs asked.
"I'm sure you've all heard about the dragon master."
"Well of course! He tames dragons! He's well known in the archipelago!" Snotlout chirped in.
"Beside what Snotlout said, this dragon master has many good alliances with well, nearly everywhere! I'm planning if we send this dragon master something, we might get an alliance!"
"And what are you sending chief?" Tuff asked.
"I'm planning to send him a... bride."
The gang shot up.
"What do you mean! I don't think sending a bride is a very.. good solution."
"Don't worry about that, the bride is well, rather willing to do it, well at least her family is. Anyways, you guys are one of the few strongest Vikings on Berk. I'm depending on you guys to p-"
Stoick stopped halfway when he heard the doors fly open.
Stoick was about to scream at the intruder but stopped himself when he saw Gobber, panting.
"Gobber?"
"Stoick! That lass.... She doesn't want to marry the dragon master!"
"But the marriage is supposed to be in a month! We can't find anyone to convince in such a short amount of time!"
Just when he thought all hope was lost, he remembered about one certain girl that he might be able to convince.
"What do we do Stoick!"
"The marriage will be done as planned."
He looked back down at the gang.
"I trust that you guys will be able to protect this bride."
Everyone nodded and was starting to leave.
"Astrid, stay. I need to have a word with you."
Astrid nodded and started to walk to Stoick.
"You wanted a word with me?"
"Yes. Astrid, I need you to be that bride."
Astrid's eyes widened.
"What? I'm a shield maiden. I'm one of the best warriors on Berk!"
"Yes, but without your contribution, Berk might not still be here. You know the best for Berk."
Astrid lowered her head.
Yes, she wanted to be with Hiccup but did she have a choice?
"I'll... I'll do it."
"Thank you lass."
