Her eyes widen in shock. "Hiccup I don't know how she survived,okay but I got this-"
"I don't care! She's gone! Sh- "
"Hiccup shut up so I can talk!" She yelled.
I nod. "Okay.....I'm sorry...""As I was saying I got a letter from her, she'll be here less than two days Hiccup......" she said to me as she watched me.
"May I read the letter?" I asked her holding out my right hand.
She nods and hands me the letter. I look her in the eyes and she nods.
"Read it Hiccup.... It'll be worth it." She says.
I slowly open the nice folded letter. I sigh and begin to read it.
Dear Hiccup,
I know it has been a long time and that you and the others think I am dead. But I'm not surprisingly Nightquest wasn't trying to harm me. But enough about that I just want you to know I am coming home and hopefully be there less than a two days hopefully. I miss you a lot hiccup, and only if you could somehow forgive me......... in return I could share my maps and tell you everything that had happened and why I faked my death and didn't come back. I also heard that you are chief. I'm happy for you Hiccup. Hope to see you soon.
Your lost / best friend,
Shayla

I look over at Hiccup. When he was done reading the letter he fell to his knees and began to cry. I get by his side and hug him.
"She's coming home." Hiccup says and I smile and nod.
"Yep she is,she really is Hiccup." I said rubbing his back.
He stands up and calls for toothless.
"What are you doing Hiccup?" I asked him as I did the same to my dragon.
We get on our dragons. "To tell the others, keep watch for anyone who's on a dragon..... We're gonna welcome her home." Hiccup says smiling at me and I nod with a small smile.
