~One Month Later~

~Hiccup's POV~

It had been one month since Merida had died and life has been better than ever. I'm actually surprised that Heather hasn't come to us for revenge or something like that.

"Mum I'm nervous" I say to her as I'm flying with her or mother son flying time

"About what?" Asked Valka "Astrid?"

"Yeah, well I mean there's only one more week left until the baby is due and I'm so nervous" I say

"I've told you a million times you'll be fine you have a week to prepare" say mum

"Hey Hiccup not to burst your bubble but Astrid has just started giving birth so you may want to go now" Globber says to me when I see him on his dragon

"I'll be right there" I yell to Globber

"Oh no you won't" I hear a Scottish voice say. I see a shadow of a person, a girl when the shadow comes closer I see it's Merida. Her dress is ripped down the bottom, her hair is straight and wet.

"H...how?" I ask

"I escaped nothing gets past me" says Merida. Merida is throwing bow and arrows, spears, swords anything she can find basically but I dodge all of them but Merida doesn't stop. I catch one of the spears and throw it straight back at her. The spear goes straight into her heart and Merida collapses and falls from the sky. I fly down with Toothless and sure enough I see Merida on the ground. I check her heart beat and pulse to see if she was actually dead this time. She had no heart beat and no pulse YES!!!! Merida is gone for good.

"I'll deal with Merida, you go and see Astrid" says Mum

"Ok, come on Toothless let's go" I say I ride on Toothless as fast as I can. I sprint through Berk as fast as I can. When I get to Globbers I run as fast as I can until I find Astrid. I see Astrid sitting in pain trying to get this baby out

"I thought the baby wasn't due for another week?" I ask

"Looks like it decided to come now" says Astrid in pain

I sit beside Astrid holding her hand telling her it's going to be ok while she is screaming in pain

"Get this baby out of me right now!" Shouts Astrid

"Come on, give me one more push" says Globber

Astrid while in pain, pushes as hard as she can screaming as loud as she can

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!" Shouts Astrid

A few minutes later I hear a baby cry "It's a girl!" Shouts Globber

When Globber passes my baby girl to me a light just pops up, she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen and the best part is that she's all mine.

"I'll leave you to alone" says Globber as she awkwardly walks away

"She's beautiful isn't she?" Asks Astrid as I pass the baby to her

"Yes, yes she is" I say to Astrid "What should we name her?" I ask

"How about Emily?" Asks Astrid

"No don't really like it, how about Ellie because Ellie means light and she's the light in our lives" I suggest

"Yes, I love it" says Astrid.
