~Astrid's P.O.V~

As the summer goes on I mostly stayed at home but visit Hiccup a lot. His injury impacted his lifestyle as adjusting things differently will be complicated for him. I feel so regretted that this is my fault that I let this happened.

If Hiccup hasn't met me, he would had his both feet. But if not meeting him a lot of things could of been worse. Sometimes I still think about it, I just cannot denied the feeling of the urge but I know I can fight this feeling.

Hopefully one day I can put this behind, but what's worse of this outcome is the lives I took. They didn't get Justice and I'm still roaming around freely, perhaps Grimmel was right.

I was currently laying down on my bed, hands behind the back of my head and stare at my ceiling.

"Argh! You okay Astrid?"Stormfly interrupted my thoughts.

I look over at Stormfly"I'm okay girl, just been quite off".

"You'll be okay! Argu!"Stormfly says, cheerfully.

I smile and pet her"thanks".

I then went downstairs to the kitchen to grab a drink of water, my Mom is working while I'm just being lazy. I could work but I don't want to be out in public just yet.

I then grabbed the filtered water jug in the refrigerator as I pour glass for myself, put the jug away and stare at the kitchen window, seeing the bright sunset reflecting back at me.

What caught my attention was the stack of kitchen knives on the counter, my thoughts process as I couldn't stop looking as I stare at them.

For some reason an odd voice told me to take it, my hand slowly reach for it as I started to shake abit like I couldn't get ahold of myself. These temptations are holding me, I can't take it any longer but no, I promise myself, I promise to Him.

A loud knock on the door break my attention as I reached back and panted lightly, I look over at the door and back at the kitchen knives but I shook my head to go answer the door instead.

"Hello?"I answer, looking over to see Cami.

"Hey Astrid! So sorry to barged in".

"Oh no worries at all"I chuckle nervously"come in".

Cami walked inside as we went to the living room.

"I was just checking to see how you been lately, you've never really chat with us girls"Cami sits down on the sofa.

"Oh really?? Jheeze I just been so busy, I never really chat with anybody it's just....Hiccup he's..."I look away.

"I understand"She assures me"we just wanna know if you're doing okay, after Hiccup's accident. I know you really care about him a lot".

I slightly blush"I-I-I do, I felt like I'm responsible for his accident".

"Oh nonsense! It's not your fault Astrid! I'm just glad you're doing okay, remember we're here for you too"Cami smiles at me, as her reassurance comforts me.

"Thanks Cami, I'm glad you care"I felt relieved just abit.

"Anytime! Say! Wanna go out to get a nice cooling drink!?"She offers.

"Let's go!"I got up right away, wen to grab my purse as we went off to the nearest place for a cooling drink.

~Hiccup's P.O.V~

Okay struggling walking with one foot with a prosthetic foot is complicated, like I'm struggling to go upstairs and downstairs. But it's practice, I'm getting a lot stronger and feeling the emptiness on my left foot is weird, I can still feel it.

I waddle to the backyard patio as the nice sunset brightens my face, I texted Astrid that I'm staying in, so she doesn't have to feel like I'm her responsibility.

Knowing what we went through, I feel like I'm a burden to her. But I cannot feel that way forever, I know she's really trying to help me, She really cares for me but realizing she is a serial killer, why do I say that to my thoughts. A Serial Killer.

Without any warning the doorbell rang, so I waddle back inside as Toothless the Cat followed me as He wonders who would that be.

"I'm coming!"I called out, I open the door and saw Jack standing with a cheerful smile.

"Hey Bud! How's it going!"Jack greets.

"Hey Jack! What a unexpected surprise! Come on in!"

Jack enters as I shut the door. Toothless began purring around Jack.

"Good to see you too Toothless"Jack briefly pets him.

"Want a drink?"I offer him.

"Nah I'm good, so how you been lately?"Jack asks, as we enter the back patio.

"Oh you know, surviving, this prosthetic foot is hard to get used to honestly, but hey this cane is helping me at least"I laugh, sitting down across from Jack"what brings you here?".

"Oh I'm just checking up on you, see how you're feeling"Jack said, as he oddly rubs his hands on his lap.

"You good Jack?"I ask, seeing the weird behaviour.

"Yeah! I'm good just.....well I need to talk to you"He says.

"Sure, what do you want to talk about?"I gesture.

"Well....I couldn't stop thinking about what Astrid told me"

My face went to shock, did she told him, for she know about Astrid's secret"wha-what do you mean??".

"This happened when you were in troubled, she came to my house. I was surprised what she had told me about the whole situation between you two and well that Grimmel dude"Jack explains.

Oh snap, my heart starts to race"really?? Well Jack I mean! Heheh I well-"

"Hiccup, she burrowed my Dad's stun gun without any hesitation. It's just weird that I don't know how to explain it, I think that Grimmel guy was going after her if you see the connections to it".

"Jheeeze really? I didn't think that, we just got into trouble in the wrong place at the wrong time. Grimmel was the bad guy here"I said, trying to come up with a better or lame excuse.

"It's just doesn't make any sense to me"Jack disagree"I'm confused".

"Look what ever happens that day, I want to forget it. Look at me now, crippled. I'll face challenges. But that's okay! Astrid saved me, that's all it matters"I said, trying to convince Jack to understand.

"Well Hiccup, you convinced me. Maybe I'm just going over my head"Jack chuckles, leaning back on the lawn chair"you're right, I shouldn't worried as much".

"Yeah! Like I said, I just wanna forget what happened. You know it's hard for me to try to get back on walking again and reliving that moment is traumatic"I exclaimed, looking over the sunset"but when I look at the horizon, I know the next day will be a better day".

"Kinda cheesy dude"Jack teases.

I scoffed"okay man, tell you what, I'll order food!".

"Sounds good! Say, you up to play some video games?"He suggested.

"Why not!"I praise, as we got up to head back in the house.

This has become too close to understand what Astrid impacted other people, eventually someone will find out and fit all the puzzles. But if we play carefully, it should be find. I hope so.
