''How is it going?"
"Not bad, just finished packing to go home."
"Jealous, hey you will be passing by right?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Well, I was wondering, if it's not too much trouble, could you take Zephyr back home."
"Sure I don't mind. Did she not like it?"
"It's not that. Some things happened and I will have to stay here. She wants to go back home anyway."
"Okay, I will arrive soon. Maybe we can hang out before we go."
"I like that."

Back at home while the sun was setting, the ladies were on the porch enjoying the warm afternoon.
"The girls are going to look lovely in this."
"You do this every year. Will you keep going when they start high school?"
"You know Heather that this is something I enjoy doing for the girls. Maybe by then, I will make sweaters instead of these cute dresses."
"Maybe. But maybe for your own little ones."
"I always picture a mini-me running around. It's a nice thought to want to have kids."
"I can tell you by experience, and I believe Anna would agree too, it can be a handful but it's something you don't ever want to give up."
"I can see that Moana." Suddenly the phone rings.
"Hello? Astrid. How is everything going?" Astrid told Heather everything and that happened and the Zephyr is coming home.
"That is great. But, Astrid are you sure that is a good idea I mean she could take advantage of it."
"I am sure. We had a one-on-one talk. I will take it day by day but right now the focus is that will and making sure no more people try to hurt us. All of us."
"Well, I hope that gets solved."
"Yeah. What about everyone else?"
"They are good. Iduna is over at Valka's so it's just the girls and I."
"Aww. I so wish I can go home now. Well, I have to get Zephyr ready."
"Alright, we'll be here waiting."
"Okay see you soon."
"Bye." Heather then leaves the porch and approaches Stormlfly's cage, "momma is coming home girl," and got a chirp for a response.

"He's here."
"Okay, ready to go?"
"Yeah." Mother and daughter left their hotel room and met up with Hiccup who was waiting for them at the parking lot. As they greeted each other, Hiccup took them to the park and Astrid allowed Zephyr to play on the playground.
"That happened?"
"Yeah?"
"So he attacked both of you. Apparently, his 'bride' is continuing his little game."
