Picking Up The Carnage
Hey! I know I left ya hangin' a bit there, but I am completely deprived of ideas. Finally, I decided to just give it a try. So, here it goes. Tell me what you think!
Hiccup and Stoick were horrified when they saw the rain fall. The water started receding away from their house, but it was flooding the rest of the village. And the rain was only increasing the damage. But the two could only watch as there was still too much water for them to open the door. They waited for about an hour. Finally, they managed to squeeze the door open, and Hiccup and Toothless flew out. They scanned the village, occasionally rushing in to grab a Viking that was being washed away in the flood. It wasn't until the sun had set that the water rushed into the ocean and left the village alone.
The wreckage was pretty terrible, and the houses nearer to the bottom of the village had taken the brunt of the flood. Whole homes had been destroyed, and families were wandering about, dazed. There had been (luckily) no casualties and very few injuries, none of them serious. Even the sheep herd was mainly still intact. It was all very lucky.
The families whom's homes were destroyed decided to stay in the Meade Hall until spring, when they could be rebuilt. The entire gang went to help out, since Fishlegs' house had been one of the many destroyed. They passed out blankets and meals, and made small talk. Finally, when everyone was asleep they sat down, exhausted, next to the door.
All of a sudden, Hiccup quietly began laughing.
"Hiccup?" Astrid asked. "What is it?"
"I went through all of that," He chuckled. "And I still never got any breakfast."
You guys get it, right? This whole mass started because Hiccup, Stoick, and Toothless wanted breakfast, and even after all they went through, they never got it.
Well, that's it. The third one should be up sometime in the next few weeks, but I need ideas for the spring one.
Penelope, over and out!
