Astrid

After Toothless and I rescued Hiccup from the Red Death, I knew that our battle has begun.

Toothless asks, "Astrid, are you ready for this?"

I nodded, "Yeah, I am."

We flew around the Red Death and I knew that we have to get her to chase us.

That's when an idea starts to form in my head.

If we can shoot a Plasma blast into her mouth, that would destroy her once and for all.

"Toothless, I had an idea of how to defeat her once and for all. Do you trust me?"   I ask the Night Fury.

"Always."  The Night Fury smiles.

"Ok, let's do this! Blast her wings to let her chase after us!"

The Night Fury did as instructed and blasts the Dragon with a powerful Plasma Blast!

The Dragon groans from the blast.

I asked, "Do you think that did it?"

The Red Death was up in the air, just I knew she would be.

Toothless grins, "Well, she can fly!"

We flew across as Hiccup and the whole village cheered us on.

"Yeah! Go Valkyrie!" Hiccup cheers.


Hiccup

I see Astrid with Toothless. It seems like she has a plan to defeat the Red Death once and for all.

"Yeah! Go Valkyrie!" I said, raising my hand, cheering.

Dad said, "I never seen you this happy, Hic. Ever since Astrid died, you haven't been yourself lately."

"Well, Valkyrie showed me there is something more than meets the eye."

That's when I remembered what Mom told me in Astrid's funeral.

"Everyone has their way, Hiccup. Never judge a book by its cover."

I didn't know what she meant back then, but now I do.

Being different is a part of who you are, and you can learn from your mistakes.

I know in my heart, that she will defeat the Red Death, no matter what.


Toothless

The Red Death was still right on our tail, literally.

As Astrid was thinking about how to lead us through, she notices the black clouds in the sky.

She smiles at it and then said, "Ok, Toothless, it's time to disappear! Let's go!"

We flew up towards the clouds, as I begin to realize that her plan was to blend into the clouds and aim for the Red Death's gas mouth!

It was a risky plan, but it's the only plan we got.

Astrid said, "Ok, bud, hit her with everything you got!"

I used my Plasma blast in every direction, and it work!

Which was I thought it was until the Red Death spun around in anger.

Astrid notices it and yells, "Watch out!"

The flames caught my left tailfin.

Astrid immediately knew that we had run out of time. It was only one shot of this.

"Ok, time's up, bud. Let's finish this!" She said.

The Red Death roars at us and I roared at her back.

"Come on! Is that the best you can do?!?" Astrid yells at the dragon.

The Red Death follows us as we flew downward.

Astrid tries the pedal that attaches to the tail but it didn't do a thing at all!

"It's ok, bud, we're going to make it, just a little bit longer!" She said.

Astrid said, "Hold, Toothless."

She took a deep breath and then yells, "Now!"

I flipped as I unleash a blast into the Red Death's mouth.

The Red Death's wings exploded with her gas, causing a big explosion in the isle.

We tried to escape her used to be body.

"Come on, Come on!" She said, but then notices her tail aiming at us!

The tailfin disappears at the same moment!

"No! No!" Astrid cries as the tail knocked her out of the saddle.

"Astrid!"  I yelled, as we flew into the flames below!
