Httyd SPELL BOUND ?

Righting the Wrong

"Hey, how are you feeling?" Hiccup wondered.

"Dizzy." She admitted. "Is everyone okay?"

"Everyone's fine. Not a scratch." He explained.

"And the village?"

"Good as new. It's like it never happened."

"And the riders?" She checked.

"They're wait-" Stoick was cut off by his daughter's harsh tone.

"I'm sorry, I believe I was talking to Hiccup." She snarled.

"They're waiting in the arena." Hiccup told her. The young brunette nodded gratefully before stumbling towards the door. "Woah," He said as he caught her mid-tumble. "Are you sure you don't wanna stay with Astrid?"

"There's nothing I can do for her right now," Oakley stated, straightening herself up. "She's gonna be asleep for at least another hour."

"Okay, then I'm coming with you."

"Thanks, but I can take-"

"-Take care of yourself. I know." Hiccup finished for her. "Can you please let me play the big brother role, just this once?" He joked, earning a small chuckle from his sister.

The Haddocks made their way to the arena.

"Oak!" They all cheered.

Heather raced over. "Are you okay? Where's Astrid?"

"I'm a little dizzy but I'm okay. Astrid's still sleeping. My powers help me heal faster." Oakley explained as she stationed herself in her favorite spot on the arena floor.

"So, you definitely have your powers back now?" Fishlegs checked.

"It's complicated." Oakley sighed. "I definitely have my powers back. But, last night, when I healed Mrs. Hofferson, I couldn't, until Astrid helped me."

"Are you saying that Astrid still has some of your magic?" Heather thought.

"I'm not sure." She said. "Something still doesn't add up." She whispered to no one in particular. "Does someone have anything to write with?" The riders all shook their heads. Oakley rolled her eyes and pointed her finger towards the ground and began to scorch the words into the concrete as if she were writing in her journal.

"Oak-"

"When the ground shifts, and the heaven's bleed, two worlds will become one..." Oakley furrowed her brow in confusion. "Two worlds will become one..." She repeated turning her head to her raven-haired friend. "What does that mean?"

"I think it means that this little chapter in our lives isn't quite over yet." Hiccup explained. "And speaking of chapters... Do you remember what day it is?"

"I know perfectly well what day it is." Oakley rolled her eyes in annoyance as she waved her hand over the burned-out writing causing it to disappear.

"Am I missing something here?" Heather wondered.

"It's been six moon cycles since you guys found out about us," Oakley explained. "And I still haven't figured out what to get her yet."

"Oh my Thor. The cerimonial betrothal exchange. I can't believe I forgot about that." Fishlegs gasped.

"You're always safe with a new dagger." Snotlout stated.

"Exactly. A dagger is playing it too safe. I'm supposed to know Astrid better than anyone."

"Didn't you just save her mom, isn't that a good enough gift for her?" Tuffnut interjected.

"It was also my powers, my rage, and my stupid wish that almost got Lotus killed in the first place," Oakley added. "And Heather I can sense your desperation and it's driving me nuts. Will you just come out and say whatever it is you need to say?" Heather made her way over to the brunette and whispered.

"You said that nothing happened on Vacation Island. But last night, that memory caused an Earthquake..."

"Heather you already know what happened, do I really need to say it out loud?"

"I guess not." She smirked.

"Wait!" Oakley paused. "Astrid..." She whispered. "She's awake."

"And you know this how?" Snotlout wondered.

"I don't know." She shook her head and shrugged. "Just... instinct." She hopped off the ground and raced back to Astrid's hut.
