The Unknown Enemy

♢ The Dream ♢

(Astrids POV)

I see him distracted by all the dragons, that he freed, so I run up to him, pin him down, and raise my axe to his neck.

"Take the helmet of." I say calmly, yet feircly.

"No." Just that one simple no, was all that was said, but it was so...stern.

"Why?" I ask, not noticing that I'm pushing him harder into the rock wall behind him.

"Because I don't give answers, I take them." With incredible force, he switches and I'm now the one being pinned to the wall.

"What're you going to do? Kill me?" I ask infuriated.

"You asked that question last year, and do you remember what I said?" He's says, full of power and confidence.

"You said 'Says the girl with no back up.' " I reply jokingly, yet cautiously, and trying to hold back a surprising laugh.

Then he laughs! And I join in! Both our heads go down slightly while we laugh. His helmet touches my forehead. I finally get a good look at his eyes, they are emerald green, just like the Night Fury's. I slowly bring my hand up to his helmet. We are both holding our breaths. I slightly start to lift, but then a dragon shouts a call and starts the migrate back to wherever their home is. Now he is no longer distracted.

"I'm sorry" he says, as he quickly takes a step back, before I can lift his helmet up at all. "I have to go"

"But not all the dragons are gone." She says, almost.....sadly?

"I know, but I have to scout the island to make sure not a single dragon or viking has been hurt, and if they have, I'm blaming your ass." I say the last part jokingly.

She laughs slightly and starts to say "But always remember - "

But then I cut her off, " - I'm still the Unknown Enemy."

She raises her axe, and I leave. When I get in the air, I see Spitelout!

Shit!Was he there, the entire time?!?

What the hell Astrid?

What the heck was that?

I walk out of the arena and hear,"Well, you filthy lit'tle liar."

I turn around to see Spitelout. "You're in love with the UNKNOWN ENEMY!!!" He's shouts. Everyone stops and stares. Stoick walks over. A crowd formed around us.

Great.

"Spitelout! Really? That's enough!" Stoick shouts, disappointed in his little brother.

"Did nobody else see that? She touched foreheads withe the Unknown Enemy!" He's shouts back, turning to the crowd for a reaction, and of course, he gets one.

Stoick looks at me questionably. "Well I, I um, He was," I struggled to find words. "He's was freeing the dragons, so I pinned him down and tried to get him to take off the mask, but he didn't. Instead he got out of my grip and pinned me to the wall, in a matter of seconds! He pushed his head against mine and I tried to take his mask off, but he left before I could."

Mutters break out in the crowd, saying things like, "No way!" , " I'm not buyin' it" , and " She's just lyin'. "

Now I know what Hiccup felt like, after every dragon raid. Oh Hiccup Horrindous Haddock III.

That night my parents said that I was a liability if I stayed at my house. So Stoick said I could come stay in Hiccups room. He said he would protect me for as long as I took. At times like these, I wish Hiccup was here.

That night I had a dream:

I was in the cove that Hiccup was taken in. I'm laying sprawled out on the grass. My hair is braided, as usual, I'm wearing my everyday red tunic, clothe pants, leather skirt, and armor. I'm laying there so peacefully, so happy. The longing for Hiccup is still there, but it feels more like good memories instead of memories I try to forget. I'm laying there deep in thought, then I hear a twig snap right next to me. I jerk my head to the side, and wake up.

I wake up in a panick. It's not too early in the morning, so I decide to make breakfast for Stoick ,Gobber, and I. By the time I'm done making breakfast, Gobber walks through the door and greets me. Then a couple minutes later Stoik comes out of his room and greets me as well. We all sit at the table in silence, until the cheif breaks it.

"Listen, Astrid, I think it would be better for you if you just stayed inside for the day."

"But what about the raid tonight?" I ask.

He sighs, " Even for the raid. I don't there to be any more stories and I don't want anything to happen to you. Ok?"

I sigh, "ok." I look down at my plate.",May I be excused?" I ask. Before I head up stairs I say,"Promise you'll be careful, this Unknown Enemy is a very skilled and very strong fighter. He may seem little, but he's feirce. He can cause a lot of trouble, but if you guys get ahold of him let me know? Ok?"

They both nod and I head up to Hiccups room. I just lay there for hours and hours. I haven't gotten a lot of sleep in a really long time, so I fall asleep.

It was time to head to Berk for the dragon raid. Under the cover of darkness we all headed for Berk.

As soon as we got there, I did my usual, and started watching every dragon and every viking. Every mission so far has been very successful.

I see Spitelout talking to two vikings in private, then they leave. As soon as they leave he starts writing on a price of papper. I want to follow the other two vikings, but I hear a thud as a dragon huts the ground, covered in a net. A viking is charging at the dragon. I respond immediately, and free the dragon.

I wake up to hear the door opening. I hear slight whispers, so I go to the corner of Hiccups room. When I go to jump out in the open, ready to attack, something hit my head hard and everything went black.
