Cold had to be an understatement. It was absolute zero, the winds nipped at her elbows occasionally tempting her to move forward and jump into the small pit of fire she had managed to start but her want of being alive kept her from listening to its whispers. Nothing she had on keep her from the cold, only the clothing she had awoken in and a few of the things she had managed to take from the village on the small island.
If she was on an island with a village then why didn't she talk to them? Simple. They were barbarians. Even after she had awoken for the first time on the small pitiful island, she knew she wasn't where she was before… where ever that was. She had wandered into the village that same day and she saw the idiotic and brutish way that they had acted. In her eyes they were truly disgusting creatures with no respect towards others. She had decided to take a couple pieces of clothing that they had hung out and made her way back into the woods. The woods would've probably been kinder to her than the villagers ever would.
She shivered at the thought and curled up into a ball next to the fire, hoping to catch a few licks of warmth. It sort of worked but she was still numb, the clothes felt like pieces of thin thread instead of the supposedly warm wool it actually was. She rolled over and laid on her back staring up at the stars. She had to admit, even if the rest of the island was not worth seeing, the view of the skies were amazing. You could clearly see each individual star that illuminated the heavens. Bright little lights, she chuckled. Perfect. Raising her hand up, her mind began to wander. What would it be like to touch the skies? Would it be like she had imagined before? Would it be the feeling of velvet and freedom? Or would it feel warm and make her insides want to explode from happiness? Oh. That was a bit too graphic. She shook her head and rolled back over to face the fire. She knew she would never find out the feeling but it never hurt to think about it.
Closing her eyes, she decided that now was the perfect time to catch on some sleep. She was tired of fighting the cold nights so she let her mind drift into a deep sleep, not knowing if she would see the day of tomorrow. Although she did… she never expected what she saw.
Hello Everyone! Yume here with a new story. My FF no longer has the line break button so I had to improvise haha(edit: just kidding it does). Anyway, I honestly only have a slight idea where this is going, I don't even know if I'll continue this though. I guess it'll depend on the faves/reviews. I've always wanted to write a HTTYD story and right now, I was just listening to some music and I guess I got inspired. I think this still needs some work. It's going to be posted as a one shot, I think I used too many metaphors or whatever you call them, so I'll leave it up to you, the readers, to let me know if you would like me to keep writing.
