Guys, I’m sorry. I don the know if I’m allowed to do this, but I just finished my next part. It’s really dumb, but I feel like it would be better for me to post it now so that I can come back tomorrow and see your feedback, instead of waiting a few hours tomorrow. Newt is still going to write his hair cut peice, I just really wanted to get this put down for some reason. And one more thing, at the end, it says everyone’s last names. I tried to find heathers or daggers last name, but couldn’t find it, so I made up a last name for Red SRRY. I’ll edit it I feel you guys find it. Well enough blabbing talk to you guys in 8 hours

“...And well, after that, I sorta stormed out of there. I didn’t want to hurt Riley’s feelings, but I mean, it was to fast. To just say he had feelings for me? I mean..” Red explained, finishing her side of the story. Nik, hearing this, was apparently using his fork to carve the table. Intentional? Not really sure.

“Uh, Nik?” Said newt, “currently, I don’t know to be more worried for you or the fork.”

He stopped realizing what he was doing. But he still had that angry look in his eyes.

“I’m just gonna..” I said, slowly prying the fork from his hand and putting aside. And as aside, I mean the next table.

“Sorry, I just uh, am just SUPER annoyed at Riley and all for not telling us where he went.”

I’m pretty sure we all knew this wasn’t the complete truth, but we let it slide.

“So Cora, now it’s your turn.” Said Red. “What happened with you in Riley? It seemed, kind of serious.”

Everyone now had my attention. I gulped. I’m not sure how exactly to word this. How do you explain something you don’t understand? But they were the only people I could tell, and I needed to let it out. I didn’t get a chance to question Mr. smith about any of this because of the sleepover. We came here strait after we woke up. We all needed a catch up.

I took a breath. “Well, he..uh… ok. He uh, explained something, said something.. about my heritage…” there was a pause.

“Like..what?” Asked Newt.

“Well, he first mentioned my necklace,” I held it up for them to see. “And He Said something about it being a family crest..-“

“Well, yea, you knew that. That’s why it was so special, right?” Said Red.

“Well, I guess, but that wasn’t all.. he said that this crest meant more, or represented more than just a normal family crest.”

Now everyone was confused.

“He said..”I started to shake again. My insides and eyes started to boil.

“He said that this was crest of the family of Hiccup Haddock lll.” I said blankly. I was taking deep breaths, trying my hardest to keep it in.

“Who’s that..” asked Newt. I think the only other person who understood was Nik, because his eyes went wide.

“Well, I have this weird neighbor. And when I was little, he would tell me about these weird fantasy stories about dragons and other stuff. But a lot of those stories contained one main character, and that was Hiccup Haddock. The story’s described him as the chief of Berk. And apparently he changed history by doing something, I don’t know.”

“I’ve read about him as well.” Said Nik.

“Yea. So what I’m wondering is.. could the part of Hiccup Haddock being a famous chief be true? Because when Riley said I’m a haddock, and had chiefs blood.. I..”

The thing was, I was starting to believe more of the story’s than just hiccup, but those were just my weird fantasies. Besides, they would think I’m crazy.

“So, the thing is, I’ve been told my whole life that I’m this one person. Coraline Lacher. That’s who I was for 13 years. But now..” I couldn’t help it, I started tearing up and shaking more than ever. I hated doing this, especially in front of my friends, who I’m sure are all older than me by a bit and probably think I’m the baby.

“I just don’t know who I am.” I said with actual tears. “I’ve been playing this character that I’m not, and I’ve been living this lie of a lie, and I’m just so confused. To much is happening, and all on the same day. I just don’t know who I am anymore..”

tears were streaming down my cheeks no matter how hard I tried to keep them in. I felt like such an idiot. I then felt Reds hand on my shoulder.

“First of all,” she said. “You are coraline. I don’t care what your last name is.”Said Red.

“Your probably the most optimistic person I’ve met, and you're one of the few people who can deal with my stupidity.” Said Newt. I chuckled at that.

“Your my best friend, at least the the best one I know of in the archipelago.” Said Red.

“And you have the brightest smile anyone here has seen. Where is it by the way?” Said Nik. I couldn’t help smiling at them. These guys were the (basically) real family I had.

“There we go.” Said Red. “ so don’t take what RILEY said as something that should change you, because you are still Cora, no matter what blood you have.

“Thanks, that really helped guys.” I said.

“Hey,” Said newt, “ we’re your gang, and we’re with you every step of the way.” I smiled at him. Even though, we still needed to talk about what happened during the dance, I hope this was our silent peace treaty.

“Let’s just agree,” I said, “that KNOWN of us had a good night yesterday.”

We all chuckled. It was true.

“Not even your blond friend over there Nik.” Said Newt, pointing to the other table where that blond girl was staring daggers at Nik, and stealing a few glances at Red. (Staring daggers! Is that how you say it? Eh, I don’t know.)

I finally felt calmer about this whole thing, when two big important looking men came through the door, with a boy looking around Nik and Newts age behind them, smirking. He was looking directly at Red. What did everyone have against Red? I was starting to get scared for her.

“Meadow falter, Nik Jorgenson, Newt Thorson, Coraline Lacher,” I winced. “you kids must come with us.”

“What? What for?” Exclaimed Newt. My adrenaline was pumping.

“You kids have been accused of going into the woods and starting the fire.”
