(I'm not gonna involve Viggo or Ryker in this chapter, since I want to make it more about Hiccup and Astrid. Enjoy!)

HICCUP'S PERSPECTIVE:
I looked down at her worried at the sight I saw. She was very pale with a hint of green to her skin and looked like she hasn't slept in weeks. She could barely open her eyes and she was extremely weak. "Shh, just rest. We're gonna beat this, I promise you Astrid. You just have to keep fighting, and hold on!" I told her. I walked over towards a large rock with her in my arms. I set her down at the bottom of the rock so she had something to lean on. I put my hand on her shoulder. "You need to stay with us. I can't imagine a world without you in it". She took a breath and I walked over to the Buffalord and got his saliva. I walked back over to Astrid and gave her the saliva to drink. After she finished drinking, there was a couple seconds of silence and nothing happened. "Uhh nothings happening!" Fishlegs quickly said to me "maybe it takes some time for the antidote to work?". At the moment he finished, Astrid started coughing and shivering. "Oh no something's wrong". Stormfly started to whine. I quickly turned over to Fishlegs. "What else does it say?" "It says green solution will cure the scourge. Green solution, cured that's all it says". Something came to me as I looked at the saliva in the cup. "But the Buffalord's saliva is clear! What does it mean by green solution?" Fishlegs started looking up and down the list looking for answers. Snotlout looked over at the twins who were eating the same food that the Buffalord eats (grass). "How can you guys et at a time like this?!" Snotlout said yelling at the twins. "Hey! People deal with stress differently ok? And we're eating what the Buffalord eats because well who doesn't want sweet smelling droppings?" Fishlegs gasped when he saw the green saliva all over the twins face from the grass. "Wait, Hiccup..." I looked over at the twins and thought the same thing! "The erbs! It must be what the Buffalord eats, MIXED with its saliva that creates the antidote. Which makes a good point of why he can't leave this place, he can't be away from the food it eats". I pulled some grass from the ground and gave it to the Buffalord to eat. The green solution appeared right away. "Yes!" Fishlegs shouted. I ran over to Astrid as she started shivering again. I hated seeing her like this and I was hoping and praying that this antidote will work. "I know Astrid, I know. I know just drink". "Hiccup, I think. I think..." "it's working!" I said. She fell on me the first time she got up but managed to do better after I helped her. She was looking much better than before. She hugged Stormfly and then looked at all of us with a smile. "Well, that only leaves us one more thing to do".

ASTRID'S PERSPECTIVE:
We all went to the ship full of people who died from the scourge and set it on fire. I said the speech that was said at many Viking funerals then everyone but me and Hiccup left. There was a bit of silence at first before I broke it. "Hiccup, I just wanted to say thanks. I really ouh you". He looked at me a blushed for a second. "It's no big deal, you would've done the same for me". "Hiccup?" "Yeah?" "Can you stop over at my hut for a little while when we get back to the edge?" He had a shocked look on his face "yeah sure!" I looked at his eyes a few seconds before I spoke again. "I can't imagine a world without you in it either". We both smiled and blushed at each other and I started to head back. "You go on, I'll catch up!" He told be while I started flying off. I needed to say something to him about two days ago. Me and Hiccup could actually discuss us becoming a couple! I can't go too far though. But we are almost nineteen years old anyways, we can do things we couldn't do in the past. Anyways when I got back I was waiting for Hiccup to arrive at my hut...

Hope you enjoyed the fourth part of the series! I'll probably post the next chapter later on today. For the next chapter it may involve some mature content. Just to warn any younger readers. Bye for now!
