Seize The Day

Chapter 1

Hiccup awoke with his neck hurting and his head pounding. As he open his eyes, with blurry vision he looked around and realized he fell asleep in the garage… under his car…again! He groaned as he got up from the floor. His back making popping and cracking noises. He looked up at his baby, a 1996 Toyota supra. It was his first real car he hasn't really told anyone about it. Mostly because he has no friends at school. So he kept to himself.

He walked out of the dusty garage and closed the doors. He walked into his house to put on a different outfit. As he peeled off his dirty oil stained cloths, he looked up and saw himself in the mirror. He was filthy. Grease was splattered all over his face. His arms and hands were almost completely black with dirt! He then made his way to the bathroom with a change of clothes and a towel. He passed by his father holding a coffee that grumbled something unintelligible which Hiccup just assumed was a" mornin" of some kind. He walked down the hallway to the bathroom, passing by pictures of all kinds. Mostly of when he was just a kid and his mother worrying herself about what 'adventures' his younger self would get into. But he passed one of him when he was 7 playing with his best friend, Astrid. They used to be so close up until about grade 6 then they just started drifting apart.

He turned on the shower and slowly stepped in letting the water run over his bare skin. Washing away all the grime of yesterday. After 20 minutes of cleaning he finally looked human. As he unwillingly got out of the shower, not really looking forward to another day of being made fun of. He thought about what was going on Friday. He would finally race. He's been building up his baby for this. The town of St. Adams had a Huge street racing seen most of his friends race there always. His best friend Thuggery had been racing his 94 240sx for a year now and was making a killing with his crew.

He dressed in his usual attire, black band t-shirt, blue jeans and a pair of vans skater shoes. The shirt he wore today was one of his favorites. It was an Avenged Sevenfold [1] t-shirt from their album Nightmare [2]. He always had a good day when he was wearing this shirt. He raced down the stairs of his small house. His mother Valka was sitting at the table sipping on coffee and reading the newspaper. He ran and grabbed a pop tart and bid a farewell to his mother for the day. He walked out to his 'beater car as he called it. A 1992 Honda civic 4 door 5speed. He looked around the small quiet neighborhood where he grew up. It was like the neighborhoods in the movies. Quiet small houses and decent neighbors. One of them is Astrid. He hoped in the car like he normally dose pushed the clutch in and started the car. But when he went to put it in first gear it wouldn't move. "oh no." "Really!" He cursed his luck as he would be forced to drive his Supra considering his clutch decided to go on today of all days. Today was the first day back from spring break. He hated parking his civic in the school parking lot much less his baby. That no one knew about mind you.

"Well fuck." He said as he unlocked the garage again. He hoped in his baby and started her up. He pushed in the clutch and put it in 1st gear. As he was releasing the clutch he had to concentrate a considerable amount considering this clutch was meant for racing and was very hard not to do burn outs with. As he drove through the streets of this quiet little town called Berk he felt pretty bad for everyone. Hs exhaust was Very loud and shook most of he windows on the street as he drove by.

He arrived at the parking lot at the school and he tried to be somewhat stealthy. But as you probably figured it didn't work out so well he was in a bright orange car with decals all over it and a loud ass exhaust. He parked in his spot rolled up the windows and armed the alarm. He looked at his car for a moment longer then turned around. Every single person in the parking lot stopped what they were doing and were just staring at him. He was very uncomfortable to say the least. So he stalked away to school trying to be as unnoticeable as possible. This was going to be a very long day…

He walked into his first period class witch was English and took his seat. He looked around to see who was in the room as he waited for the class to start. He saw Ruffnut and Tuffnut fighting over what looked like to be a banana, Fishlegs was reading a book and Snotlout was hitting on Astrid, unsuccessfully I might add. Astrid was just glaring with full force. It was a rather impressive glare considering how early it was.

"Shut the Fuck up Lout!" Astrid finally having enough for today got up and went to a different seat. To Hiccups surprise it was next to him. After a moment he just brushed it off and laid hi head back down. Astrid now having nothing to do for the next 20 minutes decided now would be the best time to catch up with Hiccup, much to his surprise and annoyance. "So Hiccup… That's some car you got" all she got was a groan in response. This was going to be a very long day indeed…
