"WHAT?!" Astra's shriek echoes all of Berk almost. "I CAN'T BE BETROTHED TO THAT DERANGED, PSYCHOTIC, MAD, NO GOOD SON OF A...." She yells curses she's too young to know the meaning of.

Hiccup walks in seconds before she could ruin her relationship with her father by cursing such a word. "Oh, I'm assuming you told her about Dagur?" The one legged boy asks carelessly.

"What about Dagur?" Ailith asks from the ceiling window aback Dawn.

"Jorgensen, What are you doing on the roof?" Stoick asks with a rub on his forehead.

"Well, came to collect Astra for a flight, but it appears I'm not wanted. I promise I won't spy on you!" Ailith yells as she flies just outside the door and listens in.

"Dad! I can't marry him! He's deranged!" Astra tries to talk some sense into her father.

"I know he is, but it's the only terms Oswald's agreeing to because that man spoils his child!" Stoick explains, earning a sigh from Astra. Hiccup puts a comforting hand on her shoulder and smiles to her.

"Trust me, I wasn't happy about it either. But think of it for Berk's sake, you'd be saving us from a war, Astra." Hiccup uses his leader voice, and also guilt tricks his sister into going through with this smoothly, though he himself inside is screaming about it.

Astra sighs and nods. She would be doing Berk a favour preventing a war and in fact aligning the Berserker Tribe with the Hooligans. But, why Dagur? Of all the men in the world why him! He's deranged!

Ailith falls through the door, but jumps to her feet. "I wasn't spying! What are you saying? Shut up. Astra lets go for a flight and discuss boys...I mean! No not boys! Let's discuss marriage-I mean betrothals! I mean romance fictions-I mean-" She scrambles on, earning a slap across the face from Astra, the ginger then grips Ailith's shoulder firmly.

"Pull yourself together!" Astra yells.

"I can't! My baby's going to marry a psychopath!" Ailith yells back beginning to cry dramatically.

"I know! At least you don't have to marry him!" Astra yells as she starts to cry with her.

"What will this mean for our friendship?" Ailith exclaims, earning another slap from Astra.

"Don't say this marriage will affect our friendship!" Astra exclaims.

"But you'll be moving to Berserker Island and have to mother that deranged kid's, you'll have to kiss and pleasu..." Ailith starts but then is shuck from Astra by Hiccup.

"Ok, that's enough, by the gods, Ailith you're horrible at making your friends feel better." Hiccup says as he holds Astra close.

"Hey, I'm a Jorgensen, I can't help it...oh my baby." Ailith says as she starts to walk backwards then looks to Astra with upset motherly eyes.

Astra takes a shaky breath and turns to her father. "When is he coming?" She asks.

"Soon." Was all Stoick said before standing, putting his helmet back on and making his way towards the door. "Take as much time as you need to adjust to...Dagur's aura." He suggests.

"Spend more time with Ailith, that should do the trick." Hiccup says playfully, making Astra chuckle softly before she embraces her brother.

"I don't wanna do this." She whispers to him.

"I don't want you to do this either, trust me! If there was another way for peace I'm sure both Dad and I would take it! But that kid is pretty keen on having you as a wife." Hiccup says, making Astra shiver softly.

Astra hopped on Spike once they'd escaped the house, she needed to clear her head and what better way than to go on a fly with her nadder. Spike took off and began hovering over Berk's tall mountain range. Astra took a deep whiff of the Hugh sky air and sighed.

"Spike, what am I going to do? I can't marry Dagur!" The ginger asks the nadder, who squawks and turns his head slightly to face his rider. Astra laughs softly and wipes a fallen tear she didn't realise she had let fall.

It was hailing from the heavens, Austa squinted her eyes and held her hand over her eyes so she could keep them even a small bit open without getting wet, but it was useless, all she could see was hail.

"Come on, we have to wait out the storm!" She says to Spark and the razorwhip roars in agreement and began to fly more closer to the water so they could see any upcoming island.

"There! We'll wait out the storm there!" Austa yells and points to an island upon seeing its silhouette. They fly down onto the rocky island and search it for a cave, finding one, they crawl in and sit down, a weak fire blazing.
