Chapter 4
Harold was walking home with his friends when he decided to share his encounter about meeting Amanda.
"I told her she looked more beautiful and boom. She blushed" Harold recounted.
"Dude I think she really likes you" Frederick replied.
"Yeah dude you should totally ask her out" Darren said.
"I agree. Finally, you get to date someone after all these years" Camilla said.
"Yeah I agree too" Hilda said.
"I don't know. I probably will think about it" Harold replied.
Harold trudged along the walkway towards his house. His house was not very hard to miss. It was the biggest house in the area. One of the perks of having a mayor as your father. That day he went home to find his house empty. Just like yesterday when he came back from Bog. He thought nothing much about it and went to his room where he decided to take a nap.
Somewhere else …
Stephen and Valarie Haddock were in a secret room somewhere along the outskirts of Berk. Gary Belch, a General from the army was talking to them.
"Listen, 10 mutant wolves escaped from the research facility. These wolves are highly dangerous. They are sometimes controlled by this huge red wolf monster called The Red Death. We should alert the residences about these dangerous creatures" Gary said.
"No. We shouldn't worry the resident of it yet. As far as I am concerned, it might cause an even greater havoc if we warn the residence. I say we send the FBI undercover and hunt these wolves" Stephen said.
"I think we should try to train these wolves. They could come in handy" Valarie suggested.
"Are you crazy? These wolves are monsters and we should kill them" Stephen said.
"I think the people we should kill are the scientists. They are the ones who cause the wolves to deform. It was their fault that the wolves are in this situation. If it wasn't for them, none of these will happen!" Valarie said angrily. With that, she stormed out of the room and left.
"She has got a point" Gary said.
"I will think about it" Stephen said. He stood up and left the room.
Few hours later…
Harold was studying in his room. First day of University was over but he wanted to stay ahead during lecture times so he decided to study to keep himself occupied.
"Harold? Are you home?" Valarie called as she entered the room.
"Yes, I am! Where have you guys been?" Harold said as he walked down the stairs.
"We attended an urgent matter in the neighbourhood." Stephen replied.
"Wow. This matter must be very urgent since you guys came home at this time. It is 11:45 p.m.!" Harold said.
"Yeah it was quite urgent" Valerie said
"You should go back to bed son. It is already quite late." Stephen said. With that, Stephen and Valerie went into their room.
"Strange, very strange" Harold thought. He just shrugged and went into his room. As he continued studying, he heard rustling outside his house. He decided to look outside his house to investigate. He saw that the bush was moving. He became very terrified. Then he remembered he knew mixed martial arts and decided to investigate. He took out a machete from the store room and quietly without making any noises, went down through his window to investigate. Once he reached ground floor, he cautiously went towards the bush.
"Reveal yourself" Harold said. Then suddenly, he heard a noise that sounded like dogs whining. When he looked into the bush, he saw a humongous black wolf tangled in a big net. His first instinct was to kill the beast like wolf so he raised his machete and decided to aim for his head. However, he stopped when he saw the wolf's eyes. They were green just like his. Those eyes looked terrified, just like him when he was younger. This bought back memories of his past when he was bullied by Scott and the twins. Since he couldn't take it anymore, he cut the net to free the black wolf. Once the wolf was set free, it immediately jumped on Harold and growled. Harold embraced himself and prepared for the worse. The wolf growled louder and then to Harold's surprise, went back into the forest behind him. As the wolf ran back, Harold saw that the wolf had wings but one of the wings seem to be badly damaged.
"That's a strange looking wolf" Harold thought to himself. An idea then popped up in his mind.
"Tomorrow after University, I am going to make a wing for the wolf" Harold thought to himself as he climbed back up to his room.
Author's note:
I am trying to make it something like HTTYD but in modern setting. Instead of dragons, I decided to use mutant wolves. Decided to be more original. It's going to have a lot of chapters. Maybe include some extra characters in the future. And yes, that black wolf is used to represent Toothless, our favourite night fury. This is the second chapter I posted today. Despite the lack of time, I am going to try to write two chapters per day. Bye for now
