Hey guys! I'm back! *claps energetically and cheers are heard on the background* Did ya miss me? 'Cause I sure did! :D...okay... SO! I FINALLY I managed to finish the chapter. Yes! XD Thanks to everyones help on giving me ideas (which were a lot, by the way... which I loved!), chapter 6 is up :)
So today I don't have anything else to say besides thanking all the people who helped (you know who you are *wink* :D) with this, I give you all a big bear hug and a digital piece of chocolate cake :)
Oh, and I already watched the new episode of Defenders of Berk... great episode! :D Poor Meatlug, Fishlegs wasn't paying attention to her. Only to Iggy (I guess that's how you spell it xD). And Hiccup's smile when Fishlegs asked him if his trick was good or not. He looked adorable!
Okay! Back to the topic. I checked my reviews and realized I have 56 reviews! (counting my two reviews o.O) Wow, 56 reviews.. how cool is that? I guess my story is good after all. I'm glad you guys are liking it so far, I have tons of ideas on how this is gonna turn out, but I'll have a bit of a problem in writing it in detail ^.^ Anyway, I'm so happy for your reviews and support, that's all I gotta say besides:
I don't own How To Train Your Dragon and everything about it :)
Tuffnut's POV
"How lucky can we get?" I ask Astrid with a smirk. She turned to look at me with a 'are you serious?' look. I added, "I mean, how lucky can we get that we're in a woodcrafting class."
"Don't give your hopes up yet, Tuffnut," she tells me as she headed towards a tall cabinet. She then frowns, realizing that she can't reach it.
"Need help?" I ask her.
"No thanks," she replies. She then walks towards a chair and picks it up. "I can do it by myself."
Shrugging, I turned around and began to search something useful and at the same time cool so I can use to defend myself from those 'zombies', as Astrid calls them. Unfortunately - yes, I know a big word -the rest of the students and the teachers grabbed the good things. Actually, there are about one and a half dozen of students and 5 teachers; 3 womans and 2 mans. How Astrid and I managed to save all those people? I don't have the slightest idea.
Anyway, the classroom had the basic tools you use for a woodcrafting class. And like I said, everyone grabbed them. The only things left were wooden sticks or nails.
"I can't find anything useful in this stupid place!" I hear someone exclaim all of a sudden followed with a loud noise. I turn around towards the noise and see Snotlout with a scowl and fists clenched as he glares at a destroyed chair, meaning that he probably was the one who did it.
"Hey, calm down, Snotty. Even if it's dead already, don't you know that wood has feelings too?" I ask him as I step next to him and look at the broken chair.
He growled and turned to me with a glare. "Listen up, you hippy. One: Call me Snotty again and I'll punch you in the face and Two: Don't tell me what to do, I only receive orders from myself," he said to me. I smirked at him as I crossed my arms.
"Yeah, well, I don't receive orders from a person like you... Snotty," I told him. His eyes widened in anger and before I could see it coming, I feel pain in my face and I'm in the ground with a bloody nose. People around us gasp and even none of the teachers did anything to stop him in case Snotlout hits me again, which I don't care if he does or not. From the corner of my eye I see the cute black haired girl, Sarah, cover her mouth with a hand and had her eyes widened as she stared at me.
I turn back to look at Snotlout. He seems satisfied at what he did, but I just grinned at him. He wasn't expecting that, I'm sure, because he looked confused.
"What are you grinning at, idiot?" he asks me frustrated.
My grin turns into a smirk. "My sister hits better than you do, you know? Every punch I recieve from her knocks me out each time." I say to him, which made him more angrier.
He raised his fist again and was about to deliver another blow at me when, Astrid stepped in front of him.
"Okay, that's enough, Snotlout," she said to Snotlout sternly as she raised her left arm towards Snotlout so he wouldn't take another step now that she was in front of him.
"Why? He's an idiot. A hippy idiot," he said angrily. I opened my mouth to say something back at him, but Astrid covered it with her other hand.
"Yeah, well, this hippy idiot is my friend," she said, which made scowl at her.
I'm not a hippy, I just happen to hate cutting my hair... or I'm afraid of going to the hair salon.
"Well I don't know why you hang out with him, his hippy sister and that tall chubby guy. And now you decided to add Hiccup into your list of friends. From all the people, him, what does he have that I don't have? He's got no muscle, he's awkward, he's clumsy... he's a scrawny little fishbone." he said while Astrid tried to keep a straight posture and not punch him in the face.
"He has everything that you don't have: intelligence, good humor, someone that has a brain and knows how to use it. Not like you that only cares about good looks. And if I were to decide who will survive longer in this mess we're in right now, I will choose Hiccup without heasitating," she replied honestly.
My jaw dropped because of that. Never in all these years that I've known Astrid, she has never spoken like that about someone - except someone from her family - and hearing her talk about Hiccup like that, it gave me an idea on why she is defending Hiccup like that. She's-
My thoughts were suddenly interrupted when a moan was heard. All of us turned towards where the noise came from. Then, someone banged the door.
I paled, "Oh crap. They've found us,"
"But how? We came down from the vents, " Sarah said terrafied. Everyone started to whisper and some even whimpered.
"It's your fault, Snotlout, " Astrid whispered harshly at Snotlout.
"Why is it my fault?" he asked innocently.
"The noise you made attracted their attention, something I hoped wouldn't happen." she explained frustrated.
Another bang was heard.
"What do we do?" whispered a girl among the group. She was clutching a hammer in both of her hands.
I glanced at everyone. Even the teachers didn't know what to do, they looked just like the others: scared. I'm not saying that I'm scared... well, only a little... or a lot? Anyway, I grabbed the closest thing in a table and realized it was a wood stick. It was a little sharp but it didn't looked sharp enough.
"Man, really?" I said annoyed as I stared at the 'weapon' in my hand.
The zombies hit the door more forcefully, making the hinger creak.
Girls shrieked or gasped, while the guys just paled and gripped whatever they had in their hands.
"Okay, everyone get ready," Astrid whispered, trying to not sound scared. I nodded at her.
"How many could it be?" I muttered.
Then, with one hard loud hit, the door burst open and a zombie came in rushing to us quickly, and then the rest came in. There were about three dozens of them!
Half of the girls screamed as one approached them. I ran towards them and with the wooden stick, I hit him right in the head. It fell down and with a lot of force I hit him with the stick one more time and it pierced his head. Everyone was fighting the zombies, but some were already being eaten by them. A guy was handling them easily, which surprised me.
"Look out!" I heard someone scream at me. Confused, I turned towards the person who said it and all of a sudden two zombies jumped at me. I yelled by surprise and I moved out of the way before one of them bit me. I turned to the stick still pierced in the zombies head and I reached towards it. I managed to get it out of the zombies head before one pushed me to the ground. It then tried to bite me, but I held his head with my hands and tried to pull him away. I realized it was one of the coaches, a big fat coach. Coach Gonzales. Never really liked him. And right now he's gonna bit me.
I almost lost my hold, but then his weight was pushed away from me. I turned to the person who saved me. It was Sarah, and she was carrying the already bloody wooden stick I had.
"Tuffnut!" I heard Astrid shout at me.
She was at the door and was trying to fight of some zombie girl, and the zombie girl was winning.
"Can I borrow this? Thank you, " I said to Sarah as I grabbed the wooden stick from her hands. "Cover me."
"With what?" she asked me.
I didn't respond. I lifted the stick above my head and then charged towards Astrid's opponent. With a cry, I hit her directly in the head, making her drop to the ground like a ragged doll.
Astrid looked at me and was breathing heavily.
"Thanks," she managed to say. I nodded.
"Are you bitten or scratched by her?" I asked her.
She shook her head. "Thankfully, no. How about you?"
"Me either."
"Guys," Sarah told us. "There's more coming towards us in the hallway."
On cue they started making moaning sounds. I looked and saw them walking slowly. Then they started running towards us.
"Everyone, let's get out of here! There's more coming!" Astrid told the few people that haven't been eaten.
We got out of the class and ran the opposite direction. They started chasing us.
"They're chasing us! What do we do?" I asked Astrid.
"We get to the main entrance. Ruffnut told me her, Hiccup and Fishlegs were gonna meet us there." she replied.
"I hope they make it," I muttered. But I didn't catch Astrid's glare.
Ruffnut's POV
"Okay, we moved the things out of the doors way. Now what?" Fishlegs asked Hiccup, who was busy loading his gun.
"Yeah, we're not just going to walk out of the classroom, right? Those zombies might be wandering out there," I told him.
He sighed and turned to us. "I know that, I'm not stupid. I have a plan, a simple plan, if you may ask," he replied.
"So tell us," I said.
Hiccup got in front of us and said, "Okay, the plan is to get out of the class quietly, then we'll try to get out of the building without bumping into zombies. We need to keet up with Astrid and Tuffnut as soon as possible, so we'll have to move fast."
"How are we going to do that? We don't know how many of those zombies are out there in the hallways or classrooms," Fishlegs told him. I nodded
"That's why we'll have to be quiet, and careful too. That's the only idea I have that does not involve making us zombie food."
Fishlegs and I just stared at him. Hiccup sighed and added, "Fine, if one of you two have a better idea, I'm wide open to hear them."
None of us said anything.
"Fine, we'll follow your plan," I told him.
He nodded. Then he grabbed the bag that had the rest of the weapons and ammo. "Alright, now let's get out of here."
Hiccup's POV
The three of us neared another hallway. I help my hand out towards them, signaling them to stop. Slowly, I peered on both sides looking for signs of zombies. No zombies.
"Coast clear," I told them.
"So far so good," Fishlegs whispered relieved.
We started walking through the hallway. I looked everywhere, just in case a zombie appeared. Even if we didn't bumped into one, it made me confused.
"It's to quiet," I whispered at them as I frowned a little. "Too quiet. I thought getting out of the building would be hard. But this is too easy."
"What about the zombie that was eating a boy in one of the classses we passed a while ago?" Ruffnut asked.
"That was just one," I said. We were getting close to another turn.
"But at least we know that maybe the rest went down or somewhere else," Ruffnut argued.
I sighed frustratingly and told her, "Are we seriously arguing about this right now?"
"Yes we are," she said while crossing her arms.
Fishlegs shook his head and walked ahead of us. "What did you say about keeping a low voice, Hiccup?" he whispered at me. He got closer to the other hallway and stopped there. Then he turned to us.
"At least I'm not making noise," he said.
All of a sudden a zombie girl appeared from behind him and pulled him to the ground.
"Fishlegs!" Ruffnut and I exclaimed.
"Ahh! Get it off! Help!" he shrieked as he tried to push the zombie away from him.
I ran towards him and the zombie girl with my bat in my left hand. I pulled back the bat and with a huge swing - like if I was about to hit a baseball - and a loud cry I hit the zombie girl straight in the back of her head. She fell to the ground. Then I pulled back my bat and swung again to hit her again in the head. I kept doing that over and over again until I realized her head was squashed with a bunch of blood spilling out of it.
All of a sudden I felt dizzy from the sight of it. I covered my mouth so I didn't felt the feeling of puking.
"Are you okay?" I felt a hand touch my shoulder and looked that it was Ruffnut.
Breathing heavily, I nodded.
BOOM!
A door was burst open and 5 zombies came out of a class. They then started looking everywhere, maybe because they heard the small commotion seconds ago. My eyes widened.
"Come on," Fishlegs said and grabbed my arm to make me start moving.
We started running towards the stairs, which was that led us to the main doors. When we got close enough, we saw zombies in the stairs.
"Oh no," Fishlegs said and Ruffnut gasped.
"Just push them out of the way," I said.
The three of us started going down the stair and kicked or pushed the zombies that got in our way, some even fell from the side of the stairs and fell to the first floor with a loud crack.
Reaching the first floor, we turned around and saw the zombies falling down the stairs as they tried to run towards us. The ones that we had already pushed down the stairs began to get up.
"Just great," Ruffnut groaned.
Then, to my left, I heard a familiar voice scream.
"Astrid?" I wondered out loud.
I started running towards where I heard her voice.
"Hiccup, where are you going? The exit is the other way!" Fishlegs exclaimed to me.
"I think I found Astrid and Tuffnut! Follow me!" I told them as I didn't slowed my running.
Seconds later I heard their footsteps approach mine.
And off we went to where Astrid and Tuffnut were.
Astrid's POV
"Come on guys, we're almost at the doors!" I told the rest of the group as we kept running, the zombies right on our heels. There were about 10 people left, besides Tuffnut, Sarah, and me.
We were about to turn a corner when, all of a sudden, someone jumps on me and makes fall to the ground. I turn around just in time the zombie man tries to bite my neck off. I try to push him away, but his weight was winning me. I then let out a frightening loud scream.
"Astrid!" Tuffnut shouts at me. He tries to help me, but a zombie crosses in his way.
As the zombie lowers his head towards me, I begin to whimper and felt fresh tears fill my eyes.
This is it, this is how I'm going to die: turning into a zombie.
Right when it was about to tear my neck open, the zombies weight is pushed away from me. I look to see my savior and my eyes then fill with tears of joy as I saw who it was.
Hiccup.
He had a bat stained with red - blood? - and a backpack in his back. His clothes were a little dirty. The same for Ruffnut and Fishlegs. Guess they had better luck than the rest of us.
Hiccup then extends his right hand towards me and I take it. He helps me get up and then he says, "Let's go."
I nod. "Come on people," I tell the rest of the others. They obey and all of us start running.
We turn a left corner and then we see the main exit. We start to run faster towards it.
At last, we reach the doors and pushed them open. But we didn't stop running, we just kept running, trying to find a hidden place.
"Over there!" Sarah says pointing at a fire station. We head towards it.
Minutes later, we lock all the doors and cover the windows with whatever we thought would be useful.
After that, everybody then sits on the ground, everyone breathing heavily. Thankfully the zombies lost sight of us thanks to all the cars that were on the campus.
I turned to Hiccup and saw him on the ground too, with his knees up his chest.
I walk towards him and sit next to him. He might of didn't thought someone will approach him because he jumped startled and turned to me all tensed up. Seeing it was only me, he relaxed.
"Hey," he said and gave me a small smile.
I smiled back at him. "Hey yourself," I say back.
"Are you okay? Did you get hurt?" he asked me, worry in his voice.
I smiled more. "Thanks to you I'm not," I tell him. He looks at me confused. I add, "If you didn't showed of when that zombie was trying to bite me, I would've been dead right now, or already turning into one of them."
"Oh," he said. Then he smiled. "It was nothing, I just did what I had to do. I wouldn't just let it bite you."
"It sure was something," I say to him. Then I rest a hand in his shoulder. He looks at my hand and then back at me. "You saved my life. And that means a lot to me. Thank you."
Hiccup scratched the back of his neck and sheepishly said, "You're welcome."
I smiled at him. Then I did something that surely caught him off guard. I punched him in the arm.
"What the hell?!" he exclaimed looking at me as he rubbed his arm. "Why would you do that?"
"That's for taking a lot of time to get to me- I mean the rest of us," I said, trying to hide my blush that was starting to form due to what I almost spilled out.
Hiccup rolled his eyes.
Then, I did something else that caught him off guard more than before. I pulled him into a hug.
"This is for everything else," I said to him before he could say anything. Then I buried my face in his chest, half because my cheeks were starting to heat up and the other half because it felt comfortable being like this with him.
Then, after what seemed an eternity, he slowly wrapped his arms around me and rested his chin on the top of my head. That made my cheeks heat up more than before.
"Glad to help," he whispered.
I smiled. Even though this is the first time we've really had a small chat without the others, it somehow felt right being like this with him.
Could this get any better?
I must've spoken to soon because suddenly someone exclaimed, "Hey, take your hands off of my girl, fishbone!"
"Snotlout," I groaned between Hiccup's t - shirt.
Chapter finished *jumps happily* Yay! Okay, I really don't have anything to say this time for a goodbye but, next chapter will hopefully be published one of these two weeks. At least I hope so in case my mom forgets to pay my cellphone (yes, I'm writing my stories in my cellphone and yes... I need to start to get a job when I turn 16 so I can earn my money) and that'll delay my chance to upload the next chapter :/
Before one of you review or PM me saying that I didn't really used your ideas like I said I would... I'm so sorry. It's just that there were a lot of good ideas and I didn't know how to put it in this chapter. But I'm sure they will appear on later chapters. I'm sure of it :)
So, keep sending me reviews for ideas or PM me if you don't want people to read yours. Also, I gotta say something: do you guys want me to make a chapter which has info about each character and so on? If you want, review or PM me too :)
Anyways, hope you guys liked this chapter :) Please read and review. Pretty pretty please *puppy dog eyes*. And I'll see you all on the next chapter.
