Run Away and Back Again (HTTYD)

Heather Report

Title seems familiar dont you think?

Astrid had time to know this Heather girl better, she seemed to be a good fighter or might have been a viking sailor since she knows how to swing with the ropes. Heather seems to be stealthy and quick, the only thing is she lacks strength Astrid could see that. A part of her was threatened with her moves but a few part of her wants to befriend Heather.

And so it happened. When Heather needed help to fill up the ship she was expecting the boys to help but ended up to be Astrid. Supposedly the teens around their age would help Heather out but they ended up beating one another to get her attention which also lead Ruffnut to help them get untagled.

"Thanks....-" Heather said as she and Astrid loaded the last box of fire arms on the ship "-sorry for the rush though our men are quiet tired as of the moment." she stopped to fix her bangs away.

"I'm Heather by the way"

Heather let out her hand which Astrid responded with a shake.

"I'm Astrid and welcome to Berk. Feel at home as much as you want"

Heather chuckled. "I felt more entertained with your gang back there-"

She pointed out at Snotlout, Fishlegs, Tuff and Ruff "-it made me feel more at home than usual"

Astrid smiled at her statement, but she could still sense the sadness within her. Losing a home is like losing a part of you inside. Like losing a part of her soul.

"I'm sorry about the attack"

Heather sighed as she could feel Astrid's concerns, she do missed the island of the Bardokkans for it was the only island she first called home after being rescued from Alvin.

"Someday.....someday I'll get my revenge on those Berzerkers"

"I'm with you there too, but right now, right now isn't the right time" Astrid answered.

"Me too, Berzerk scum needs a taste of a Thorston!"

Out of nowhere Tuffnut butted in the conversation. They must have finally got out from their tangled state. Behind Tuff was Snotlout making this suavè looks at Heather which she hardly noticed. Next to Snotlout is Fishlegs, feeling shy but he does want to make a move on the new girl in town.

Don't worry about Ruff, she just stood right next to Astrid.

"Oh Heather I want you to meet the rest of the gang"

As if in order, Astrid introduced Ruff first then to Tuff then Snotlout and last comes Fishlegs.

"Say babe why don't ya try hanging out with me for the rest of the day. You know, just know one another better"

Well guess who the prick just asked Heather.

"I think Snotlout's over you" Ruff whispered to Astrid which she responded with a sly smile and whispered back.

"I think I'm gonna like the new girl here"

Heather enjoyed her time with the gang, having new friends from another island was new to her. Although she did had less time with friends back at her island. After being rescued she vowed to train hard to be able fight her newly found family and promised to protect them from intruders.

She had a good teacher, yes, and a decent partner if you asked her. And that partner was the same guy who rescued her from Outcast Island. She was absorbed by him sometime after a year or two at her island, gained a few fighting skills and stealthy moves and of course climbing up ships with Barg while they voyage. Heather does admit she isn't strong enough to defeat strong enemies but it's enough for her to defend her family.
