Fight or Flight

She's Back?

After many days Urd, Rune, and Ragnar flew down through the clouds showing the sea and very large island. Ragnar flew into the tree lines taking a landing on the open space. "Welcome home." Said Rune getting off. Urd looked around before Ragnar bounced her off of him almost landing on her face. She caught her self and turned to Ragnar playfully glaring at him as Rune pulled her to his side wrapping his arm around her shoulder. "I'll the way and keep an eye out for my dad and my brothers. They hunt at this time along with a few others." Said Rune pulling her along as they walked. Ragnar was planning to follow them but heard a rustling noise somewhere making growl happily and ran off leaving Urd and Rune on their own. Urd looked the trees and the many plants she hasnt seen on Berk and noticed a bushed moving making her stop. "Rune, i think they found us." Said Urd not taking here eyes off the bush. Rune looked at it then looked annoyed as the bush moved on all fours getting to close to Urd looking her up and down. "Aesir mind stepping off our cousin." Said Rune as the bush stood up. The bush pulled down their mask showing a teenager three or four years older looking down at Urd for a moment since he is a few inches taller than the two. "So this is why you been off the island for the past couple of days. Wait until Mom and Dad hear about this." Said Aesir looking at him. He gestured them to follow him to long walk until they got to a giant wall that is entirely covered in thick vines. Urd looked up seeing nothing but leaves and vines as Aesir went first going right through it. She went after after him seeing nothing but the sun rays peeling through the cracks of the vines that were bent into an arch leading straight. Once they were out revealed a large spring through the mist under multiple stone walk ways.

Urd felt Rune behind her and turned to see him look on the left followed his gaze seeing Ragnar playing tug o war with a dragon. Not just any kind but a hybrid along with others being healed by other people. "Mom. Guess who finally showed up?" Said Aesir towards a woman a with slight swollen belly. "Rune and . . . Awena?" Said the woman walking closer to Urd. "No mom. This is Urd. She was found with her by a tribe called Berk before she died." Said Rune sadly. "Yeah. Im Urd." Urd introduced herself before the woman hugged her. "Mom?" Said Aesir stepping close to her. "Im sorry. Im Rayen. I was best friends with your mother and was this why you left the Island to bring her here." Said Rayen looking at Rune. "Night Caller and Ragnar brought him to me after i left Berk." Said Urd. "Well lets talk with the rest of our family. Tiki there you are." Said Rayen seeing a large man behind Aesir holding a dead deer on his shoulders. "This is Urd. Awena's daughter. She is gonna tell us about herself after Awena died." Said Rayen seeing a flash of sadness and shock in his eyes before it was gone. "Get your brother and sister now." Said Tiki in deep voice. Aesir left with Rune about follow. He grabbed his head with his big hand pushing him back and handed him the deer. "You want me to . . . okay." Said Rune once Tiki glared at him. He walked down the tree with Rayen behind him as Urd looked at the place more clearly after the mist was gone. "Where is she?" Said Tiki looking at Urd. "Her body is on Berk. Ragnar found her . . ." "She doesnt belong there. She has to be here." Said Tiki. "Are you saying we are gonna move her grave?" Said Urd. "Its not a question. We are doing it. The Chiefess must be buried with their family and you are taking us to Berk." Said Tiki. "Alright your the Chief but i might have way of getting her without being caught." Said Urd. "Now youre acting like your mother and im not the Chief." Said Tiki patting her shoulder pushing her towards the carved stairs.

*Days Later in Berk*

It was very dark out in the village with everyone in their homes and the dragons in their own place. Ragnar and Urd landed in the woods with Tiki and her two cousins Aesir and Mimir carrying a sack made from the skin of deers. Urd wore a dragon skull helmet with antlers and dark clothes and some furs from animals. She looked seeing no one in sight and crawled like an animal stalking their prey and hid while Ragnar went to the sky as a watcher. Tiki followed her lead on the other direction seeing the hill Used told him about. He then looked at her who was getting close to the grave stone until the sound of footsteps made her freeze up. Urd quickly hid behind the stove lowering her head so her helmet won't expose her. She peeked her head slowly seeing Gothi walking to her house from the Grand Hall. Gothi stopped sensing something and looked to see Urd slowly crawling out of her spot. "Who's she?" Said Tiki making himself known. "Gothi. She's a medicine woman here in Berk. Please don't tell anyone that we were here. We're here for my mother and we're gone." Said Urd. Gothi nodded and walked off leaving them as Tiki crawled over to the grave with the boys by his side from hiding on the roofs of the house near by. Urd went to Gobbers shop grabbing shovels and ran back to hand over to Mimir who was similar to Tiki. She helped dig the grave with Mimir while Tiki and Aesir used their hands. Thump. "There. That's good." Said Urd. Tiki and Aesir piled up the body then the skull broke off rolling away with Urd going after it with Mimir following her. The skull bounced off a wagon flying up to hit a door of her old house. "Oh Thor. Wait here." Said Urd standing up to peeking her head around someone's house. She looked at Mimir in a crouching position looking back at her once she ran over to grab the skull. Urd picked it up just as the door opened quick to show Stoick looking around until his eyes landed on her. "Urd?" Said Stoick rubbing his eyes. Urd then took off running with Mimir holding her mother's skull hearing Stoick calling her. They took a few turns to lose Stoick chasing them down to the woods as Urd pulled out her bombs and threw it down. The bomb exploded in a loud poof spreading a white powder that Stoick walked into and felt drowsy quickly and fell unconscious. Mimir grabbed her hand taking her deep into the woods hearing more voices and met up with his brother and father. He got on the Bone Skrill with Tiki and Aesir with Urd on Ragnar taking off quickly heading back to their island.
