Astrid's POV:

I was flying into the middle of Berk looking for Snotlout and Fishlegs. I patted Stormfly and pointed towards the Great Hall. That was probably where Snotlout was.

We reached the steps to the Great Hall. Snotlout and Hookfang were helping Fishlegs with demonstrating to the young Berkians about what not to do with a dragon.Hookfang was enjoying the show. He had Snotlout in his mouth, again.

"Hookfang, dude spit him out." I told the stubborn monstrous Nightmare.

"Hey, Astrid." Fishlegs replied to me. "Just teaching the future generation of Berk the do's and don'ts of dragon training. We're obviously on the don'ts today." He chuckled.

Hookfang spit out Snotlout. "Hookfang, bad dragon! Bad dragon!" Snotlout complained annoyingly.

"Give it a rest, Snotlout. Both you and Fishlegs need to follow me to the arena. Hiccup has information that needs to be told to the entire gang, Let's go!" I replied hopping back on Stormfly. I headed towards the arena with Fishlegs and Snotlout on their dragons behind me.

Hiccup's POV:

I was waiting for everyone to get to the arena. I had hoped my idea would convince the others to go on one more reckless adventure. Especially before I resorted to my and David's chief-training. 

Toothless looked up to the sky. I looked up and saw Astrid, Snotlout, and fishlegsriding in on their dragons. They landed into the arena. Soon after David, Emma, Tuffnut, and Ruffnut flew in 5 minutes later.

"Glad to know everyone had time in their busy schedules to meet with us." I started motioning to myself, David, and Emma.

"We have new development with the Dagur issue. Last thing that was heard of him was he was going past the archipelago." I added.

"If we need some backup we'll send out a Terror Mail as soon as possible. We have two Night Fury's for instance." Emma expressed rolling her eyes. It was her idea to try and persuade the rest of the gang to join us.

"Yeah, Emma's right. We don't wanna interrupt you guys such busy schedules." David stated.

Emma's POV:

I love David so much. Him and Hiccup are gonna both be great leaders whoever. Both will be good choices.

"Um... I don't know about you guys but I'm going with!" Astrid replied crossing her arms.

"Anyone else?" Hiccup asked trying to hold in his laughter. He knew they were going to cave. He looked at the others individual faces. They all nodded.

"Okay, meet here tomorrow after breakfast. Pack stuff for a long journey." David instructed ending the meeting. 

I grabbed David's hand. Both of us ran over and got on our dragons. Then, left the arena. We headed to our houses to pack.

Astrid's POV:

Emma and David left as soon as the meeting was over. Classic relationship goals.

Ruff, Tuff, and Snotlout left soon after because they wanted to go blow something up before we leave.

I was waiting for Fishlegs to finish speaking with Hiccup. They finished up and as Hiccup turned to me I noticed his mood lighten up. Was that true or was it just a flicker of the light?

"Hello, mi'lady. How was your day, today?" He chatted. I love that nickname he gave me.

"Well, I have to ask. I have an idea that this wasn't exactly well... your idea. I know you Hiccup. Was it?" I coaxed looking into his dreamy emerald green eyes staring into my soul. "Are you only going on this mission to avoid starting your chief-training soon?"

He didn't exactly respond at first. Hiccup looked away from my gaze. "Honestly Astrid... yes. All of you guys have jobs that you're doing at the moment. I don't. So I thought maybe its time I started my chief-training... luckily my brother and your sister had this idea." He confessed looking relieved to let that burden off his shoulders.

I hadn't realized we were holding hands until after he finished. He realized too and blushed while letting go. I grabbed his hands back. I placed his hands on my waist.

He didn't let go. I could sense he was afraid. But excited at the touch. I held his cheeks hesitant.

"You idiot. Even if I was gonna join the Berk Guard. Snotlout was a weapon specialist. Fishlegs a teacher. With Ruff and Tuff following Loki the god of mischief. Doesn't mean you have to start chief-training yet. You can still live. We're the people who should be still living."

I told him proving my point further by poking his chest. He chuckled.

"Hiccup, we still have 3 years. We need to live life before then. Let's go capture Dagur! We only have a few more teenage years left." I ranted. "I miss being s reckless teenager. With you specifically." I concluded pulling his face down to mine.

We hadn't kissed in years. It was the same but he seemed more confident. I missed this. He pulled away.

"Well, let's go be reckless then." He added kissing my forehead before leaving on Toothless.

Stormfly trotted over to me. "Ready to be reckless, girl?" I announced petting her nose. I hopped on her saddle.

I was conflicted. My heart wanted Hiccup. But my warrior mind didn't. If he was going to continue making me feel this way. I'm gonna go crazy.

I flew off to my house to talk to Emma. If I needed relationship advice. I'd talk to her.
