Chapter 7:
Thanks for the wonderful reviews guys! As always, Happy reading! 3
Elsa's POV
My body was burning as I sprinted as far as I could from the Fearling.
'Oh My Gosh, my powers healed the Fearling, made it even stronger,' my mind thought endlessly. I was running, glaring back to see if any Fearlings followed me when I ran smack into a wall.
Smart. Real Smart Elsa…
The 'wall' was actually the face of a small mountain, with three ledges, one on the very top, and two in the middle, like a ladder. I touched the wall gingerly, and gasped as my ice developed on it.
My ice, which was normally white as… well ice, was now a dark grayish colour. I gasped, but my sides hurt too much. In the distance, I heard a growling of another Fearling.
I stand back, and blast a staircase of gray ice near the mountain, and gingerly step on the girst step, and I gasp as black ice erupts from where I'm standing. I quickly climb up to the first ledge and look down. I figured I was safe here. I fall down as my sides erupted with pain, and I look down at myself and gasp as I see my veins greying and tinting the rest of my skin.
I feel tears pricking my eyes and I fall, my vision turning black.
Hans's POV
I look over at the pitiful scene, and I sigh softly at Merida and Hiccup trying to comfort each other. I knew that her friends were important, but I smirk at her stupidity to not recognize her enemy… hopefully that won't have to change, right?
Merida's POV
I glance over at Hiccup, and some sort of mutual understanding passes between us. I have been staring at the photograph for so long, and snippets of memories come back to me, like visions from my old life.
I remember Jack (whose sweater I'm still wearing), with a pair of snow blue eyes, and white hair that matches the blonde girl's icy blonde hair perfectly. I graze my fingers over the picture, not believing that they're dead. It couldn't be.
I look at a picture of a brown hair man, with a small goatee, and a beautiful blonde draped around his arm.
"That's Flynn, and his girl, not sure of her name though"
A name magically pops into my head "Rapunzel. Her name is Rapunzel"
Hiccup takes my hand and squeezes, and I can feel the harshness of his hand that was the result of many nights gathering firewood, making fires and trying to fix his helicopter.
My eyes narrow in onto another girl with red hair and green eyes, snuggling with a blonde mountain guy. I look at how she and the blonde girl draped over Jack's shoulders resembled each other. 'Sisters' I mutter 'they're sisters'
The last thing I look at before I snap the picture down is me, or a younger version of me. When did the outbreaks start? I have no idea… a year? Two years? I wince and hope not. Anyways, the younger version of me looked a lot like, well, me. Then a pang of loneliness pierces me. I had no one, while everyone else had someone…
Then I push the thought away, and a bigger question popped into my head. 'Where was Hansel? If he said that he was our friend, then why was he not in the picture?'
I began to drill some questions into Hansel, hoping he'll crack and give some more information.
"So Hansel, if the nuclear leak made everyone zombies, then why isn't there any here? We've been through every inch of the houses, where is everything?"
Hansel gives me a stupid look that makes me want to slap him "Well, everyone here evaporated. After they are bitten, they need to kill to stay alive… if you don't get enough kills; they simply fade away into more nuclear waste"
I shrug and nod. "Hansel, where was the last place that our friends were?"
"Well that's random" Hiccup comments dryly
"Canada"
Suspicion hits me like a ton of bricks. "Hansel, you said that they all died at the power plant, we were the only survivors and the public wanted us execute. Why were they in Canada last?"
Hansel looks to the floor and mutters a curse. He spins on his heel and walks out the door.
Before he does, he drops a picture from his pocket. I pick it up and gasp. It was a picture of Jack and his blond girlfriend 'Elsa' my mind mutters.
I look at them, happy and carefree. Then something else catches my attention, there were burn marks, like someone wanted to get rid of them, fast. Then the biggest thing catches my attention, in the background was a forest, and there was a Fearling.
Stupid, was my first reaction. (I mean who takes pictures with Fearlings behind them?) Then the pieces fall together. This was taken rather recently. That means that Hansel was lying or they weren't dead. I walk back to Hiccup, and whisper too him my suspicions. His eyes widen and he nods.
"We need to go to Canada"
Say something, I'm giving up on you
I'll be the one, if you want me to
Anywhere I would've followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you
Hey everyone, due to lack of interest and not a lot of views (reviews are pretty good… it's just that I'm averaging 200 views on this story per day), I'm going to end this story early… so after 3 more chapters (chapter 10, max 12) I'm going to end it, and then they finale will start. The finale will be about 5 – 10 chapters… called 'Resolutions' then the trilogy Distractions will be done :D
So I hope you like it… don't worry, ots of stuff will happen during those times, lots of action and suspencefullness and stuff. Lol
So I guess I will see you soon, PLEASE REVIEW, FOLLOW, AND FAVOURITE
Love, PomPom
