Chapter 13: Your wish is granted
A / N: Hello again everyone. I'm so, so sorry that it's nearly a month since i last updated. I still have some problems with the new country and its way of education. As far as i know, they study a whole bunch of hell but in the end none of them use those precious knowledge in real life, that is what my new friends said. Yep, once again, i'm friend with a bunch of fangirls, what could be worse than that ! Please forgive my grammar and don't be surprise if i don't update in the next few weeks because school is going to be bitchy for the next couples of weeks.
Hiccup's POV
We started rushing toward the battlefield. When we were running across Berk's medical area, I really had to use every ounce of my self-control in oder not to puke in front of everyone. The place was like a living hell, with corpses and bloody soldiers lying on the ground and beds. Heart-clenching wails were everywhere, while the smell of blood and death filled the air. Gods, that was something that would scar me for life ! Jack and the other seemed to have the same thought with me. We moved as fast as we could, avoided looking into all of those creepy things. But when I ran past a tent near the fences that led to the battlefield, a familiar figure caught my eyes.
" Oh my goodness, Jamie ! What are you doing here ?" I gasped.
On a nearby bed was the General with his full-of-cuts-and-bruises upper half that was wrapped with bloody bandages, ooh and a black eye too. He gave me a weak smile as he tried to sit up.
" It's a relief to see that you're okay, Your Majesty." He said.
" Thank you, but please, just Hiccup."
" Alright then, Hiccup."
Suddenly, Jamie started to cough like he was going to spill out one of his lungs.
" Oh my god, are you okay ?" I asked anxiously while stepped up to have a closer look at his wounds. I could hear Jack's grunts from behind, obviously didn't like the way I care for the other male.
" If almost getting myself killed by dozens of Nightmares is what you mean in okay, then yeah … I'm okay." He joked.
" Idiot." I mumbled as I watched the wounds.
He was badly wounded. Bruises and cuts were everywhere , like he was beaten or something like that. Oh, forgot ,we were on the battlefield! Silly me ! But back on the main cuts were poorly treated and he really needed some special care right away, or else there would be a nasty infection that no one wants to get. Yikes !
" Jeez, look at those !" I turned my head back to my love-ones. " Can any one of you guys handle these cuts so that they won't cause infections or anything ?"
They all exchanged looks to each other, until Uncle Aster approached The General for a better look,. Jamie whimpered a bit when he started to poke gently the injuries with his paw
" Let me see." He said while taking a step back, rubbing his furry paws together in the process and somehow made it started to glow a faint green light. He closed his emerald eyes, his mouth mumbling something that none of us could here. Suddenly, gusts of wind began to pour into the small tent we were in, knocking off things like a few books or the first aid kit on the table . I hugged myself, trying to protect me from the strong wind's lashes, until I felt a pair of arms wrapped itself around my body and encasing it from the wind. As I turned my head around, I could see Jack's famous smiley face that would knock me out instantly any moment , except now …
" You okay ?" Jack asked me with care as he hugged me tighter.
" Don't worry." I comforted him. " Nothing could happen to me whenever you are around ."
" Oh yeah ? Why are you so sure?" He asked mockingly, a smirk spreaded on his handsome face.
" I'm sure, because I know that my Prince Charming will never let anything happen to me." A blush colored my face as I spoke.
Jack chuckled as he hugged me tighter, his white hair vibrated along with the wind.
" Ahh, so you do love me !"
" Well, if don't want it then i suppose I should take it back."
I threatened him playfully, pretended to move away from him. But before I could take a step, Jack had his arms around my waist again, his head resting on my shoulder.
" No~" He whined like a little baby. " Don't leave me here."
" You're so childish sometimes." I chuckled.
We stayed like that as we watched my uncle's paws started to glow brighter in a fluorescent way. The wind became stronger as it unleashed its fury inside the little tent. Until Uncle Aster's eyes snapped open as he shot his arms toward Jamie's direction.
" WAISE HEIL "
He shouted out loud as the fluorescent light in his paws shot forward Jamie. All of us gasped as dots of light covered all of The General's wounds and slowly made them disappear totally. Jamie stared at his once-again-unharm body, his jaw dropped in amazement.
" Hiccup, this is amazing !" Jamie said as he tried to get up.
" How do you feel ?" I asked him.
" Better than ever."He then turned his attention to Uncle Aster. " Thank you for your gift, your excellency."
" It's okay, mate." Uncle Aster returned.
" Okay, soooo now that you're completely healed, can you accompany with us into the battlefield ?" I asked Jamie. " Hey, I just made a rhyme."
" Nice one, and yes, I'll be honour."
" Yes !" I chirped victoriously. " Okay, what are we waiting for ! Get your things ready and let's go !"
Jack's POV
As all of us, included Jamie, rushed into the battlefield, the scene in front of us wasn't what we really expected to see. The kingdom's army had been completely overwhelmed by the dark creatures that appeared at the rear of the forest on the other side of the barren field.
" So … we are on the losing side." Hiccup stated as he watched the dreaded place.
" Don't worry Hic." I said as I turned my face to them." We can still turn this around."
I immediately used my spear and drew three lines on the dirt ground that made a 45 degree angle and another line a few inches on top of the other three.
" Okay, this is the plan. Bunny, Jamie , you will take the left side." I said while pointed the crystal head of my spear toward the outer left line of the three lines. " Tooth, Sandy, you will take the right one." I repeated the same process with the outer right line. " Hiccup and I will be in charge of the middle line. Attack any enemy you see, don't let them have the chance to harm you. We'll meet each other at the rear of the forest. Understood ?"
They all nodded in agreement.
" Okay, let's move. Man in Moon helps all of you."
I watched as Bunny and Jamie started to made their way into the raging war, Sandy created a gold cloud of sand and took off , but before Hiccup and I could move, I felt Tooth's delicate hand grabbed my wrist. I looked into her violet eyes.
" Please, protect him." She whispered.
" With all my life."
And then she took off and followed Sandy, her fairies never left her side. I turned back to Hiccup, who was taking rapid inhales and shaking furiously.
" Woah woah woah , slow down !" I immediately grabbed his shaky hands and put it into mine. " Slowly. Breath in, breath out. Breath in, breath out. Breath in,…"
We repeated the process until Hiccup's breath was stable and his whole body stopped shaking. He looked into my eyes with those beautiful orbs of his.
" Sorry." He said bashfully. " Just a little anxiety. You don't have to worry about it."
" Oh boy, here we go again." I stated. " What is your problem ?"
Hiccup let out a bashful sigh.
" We just met each other a couple of days ago. Our time together, excluded the time I was asleep, barely reached two hours. And now, now we've to go into a war against a wizard with his mystical creatures. It's just …. too short. I wish I knew you sooner." He effused.
" Me too. But time doesn't wait for anyone, Hiccup." I said as I put both of my hands on his shoulders. " The only thing you can do is move on and live your life."
" If I move on and live my own life, will you be a part of it ?"
" I'll be the happiest person on this world if I ever have that pleasure."
Hiccup's eyes dampened as he absorbed my words. A bright smile crept across his flawless face.
" Your wish is granted, Charming."
I chuckled as I pulled him closer to me, a hand wrapped securely around his slim waist while the other lifted his chin up to my face. I lowered my head down, and our lips touched in a passionate kiss.
