After introductions and a lot of storytelling Hiccup offered Freya a place as a dragon rider.

"You could always stay with us you know. We could really use you help to defeat Viggo,"

"I would love to Hiccup," Freya spoke with a smile "but I already have my mission. I have to find the gods crown and the blood stone it holds,"

"We could help you," he tried again "it's a big ocean out there,"

"I do not need to search the oceans Hiccup, all I need to do is hind the leader of the hunters that holds my father's sword," Astrid spoke up next.

"This sword wouldn't happen to be embedded with rubies and has markings up the blade would it?" Freya was shocked that she could describe the weapon so well.

"The very same. How do you know of it?"

"That's the sword Viggo holds,"

"Viggo. The same Viggo that you need help to defeat?"

"The very one,"

"Well then, perhaps I could stay a little longer. Where do we attack next?"

"We do know where his next dragon action is being held, Viggo wouldn't know what you look like so you could sneak in posing as someone else,"

"Perfect,"

After a long ride to Burk with Freya riding on toothless, they landed in the middle of the village. Vikings of all sizes gathered around them asking questions about the great beyond and who the girl riding with Hiccup was. Begin surrounded by so many people it started to become hectic. Everyone was talking and laughing with each other making the newcomer anxious. The last time she was so close to people her whole world came crashing down around her. Moving to stand closer to the other girls, Freya began to shake.

"Are you ok?" Astrid asked placing a hand on her shoulder.

"Truthfully, no. I've never been around so many people at once,"

"It's alright. Here come Stoick and Gobber, the people will start to leave soon," As Astrid had pointed out, two men walked through the crowd and embraced Hiccup. As this was happening the other Vikings started to leave, going back to the activities they were previously doing. Freya's heart started to slow and relief washed over her body. Following Hiccup and the other two men, the riders ended up in the great hall where a skinny man dressed in blue waited for them.

"Master Hiccup, how have you been?"

"Good Johann. Actually there is someone I'd like you all to meet. Dad, Gobber, Johann, this is Freya," Stepping forwards, Freya bowed to the three men.

"It's an honour to meet you all,"

"As it is to you lass," Stoick bowed back. Johann look delighted to meet her but Gobber looked like he has seen a ghost.

"My gods," He muttered "Is it really you?" Freya looked strangely at the older Viking. He was missing and arm and a leg and looked like her had seen many battles. He looked like he could kill you without effort but at the same time looked as friendly. "Your majesty?" Her eyes widend and she held her breath.

"You know who I am?" He gave a curt nod.

"My great, great grandfather was a secret keeper for the family," he said with pride shocking the other Vikings.

"What's a secret keeper?" Heather asked.

"A Viking that knows the real story of the Dragon King. His or her job was to tell the future generations the story so that no one would forget the truth," Gabber explained "but what are you doing here with us?"

"We believe that Viggo has the Gods Crown somewhere. I need to find. Plus, any way I can help Hiccup or foil the hunter's plans is a win for the dragons anyway,"

"Freya here will be playing the part of a dragon hunting Queen from the north. No one knows what she looks like. She's the only one that can pull it off," Hiccup clarified. He explained the rest of the plan to the Vikings. "Freya will look around the grounds and try to find the manuscript and a map of where the dragons are kept. Once we get all the information we can blow the place and free the dragons. We will then push Viggo and Ryker into a trap where we can find out where the Gods Crown is,"

"That sound wonderful, but why am I here Master Hiccup? Trader Johann asked

"We need to get Freya there somehow that isn't suspicious and we hoped you could take her. We also need a dress or silk fit for a Queen,"

"That I can do,"

Authors Note: Sorry this chapter isn't very good. The next one will be better I promise.
