Snow
Snowed in
Alright, I knew I was a little slow in getting it here, but here it is! Snow, the sequel to Leaves. I hope you all like it, and remember; questions, comments, or ideas, review me! And don't just review if you've got one of the above. Review no matter what!
Disclaimer: I do not own HTTYD or any characters, although I would love it if I did. I wish Santa had gotten me that…..
Hiccup woke up one frosty winter morning to the sound of a loud creaking.
Creeeeak. It went. Creeeeeeeeak.
Hiccup started to pull his covers back, but immediately snatched them back on top of himself. It was freezing! It was a good thing he had decided against staying at the forge last night, or he may well have frozen to death.
Shivering, he pulled the blanket over his body and slipped on to the floor, cringing as the heat-deprived surface instantly froze his toes. He hopped over to the small pile on the other side of the room where he had left his clothes and prosthetic. Snatching them up, he lost his balance and crashed to the floor, yelling when the cold ground touched his previously warm body. Toothless, who, only moments earlier, had been lying on the floor next to Hiccup's bed, dreaming of cod, instantly jumped to his feet, growling.
"It's okay, Toothless." Hiccup gasped. "It's just freezing!"
"Hiccup!" Stoick called from below. "You okay, son? I heard a crash….."
"I'm fine!" Hiccup yelled back. "I just fell when I tried to get my prosthetic."
"Oh." Stoick said, sounding as if he was shrugging. "In that case, can you and that worthless dragon of yours shovel the snow? It's pretty deep, and I'd really rather not get snowed in again."
Hiccup groaned, remembering the last time his dad had asked him to do something like this. Then, he realized what the creaking had been.
"We'll clear off the roof, too. We probably don't want it to fall in on us."
"Probably not." Stoick agreed. "Now hop to it!"
Some minutes later, when Hiccup was fully dressed and had attached his prosthetic to his leg, he rushed downstairs for some breakfast.
"I'm starving!" Hiccup exclaimed as he ran to the table.
"Well, I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little longer if you want breakfast this morning." Stoick told him grumpily. "I was supposed to go shopping today, but with all the snow, I can't get out."
"Oh, come on Dad." Hiccup scoffed, pulling the door open. It can't be that – " He stopped when he saw what he was looking at. A solid block of white snow sat in front of them. "– Bad." Hiccup finished weakly.
