Chapter 05
Smothering Outcasts Part One: A Fog monster?
Meanwhile at the dead of night, back in Burgess, Jamie stares at the a tiny opening, his only window to the outside world, having the view of the wide ocean before him, and he can only wonder how long it's been since Jack took off. And he can only hope that his trust for his best friend wasn't misplace.
We're still best friends, Jamie bit his lip. aren't we Jack?
The Prince took a breath, before he heard the sound of the door open and the voice of a maiden. Jamie blinked at the sight of his sister dressed in her royal robes with her blond hair flowing freely. Honestly, she looked out of place in this cell.
"Brother," she went towards Jamie, "come quickly."
Jamie cocked his head in confusion, turning towards his sister. "What? Wh-?" he trailed off.
"There's a ship waiting in the harbor," Sophie told him, taking Jamie by the arm and leading him to the door. "a crew of dad's and Monty's most trust officers will take you far from Burgess."
Jamie frowned, pulling his sister back towards him. "But the ambassador's guards?"
"Are asleep or well-bribed." Sophie answered shortly. "but you must go now."
Jamie shook his head, unbelieving this. "Go where; to live the rest of my life in exile?" he asked incredelously.
"To live, Jamie." Sophie sugar-coated it. "We won't let them execute you for Jack Frost's crime."
Jamie looked at her sternly. "Neither will Jackson, and you know I love Burgess too much to live... or die... anywhere else." he pointed out.
"Jamie, don't be foolish!" Sophie snapped as Jamie turned away. "Jack has no intention of going to the Dark Depths. The Jackson you knew as a child..."
Jamie faced his sister once more, looking determined. "... is still in him as Jack Frost." he interjected sharply. "I've seen it."
"Jamie..."
Jamie smiled tightly, placing his hand on both shoulders of his sister who was about to cry. "Go, Soph." he said gently. "I know what I'm doing."
Sophie reached one hand up, squeezing one of her brother's hand before embracing him and running out, closing the cell door. Jamie walked back to the window, sighing once more.
Jack, I believe in you, don't let me down... The Prince thought ...please
~o~
With the skies lit up, the North Wind is moves to shore at one of Breakneck's Bog least foggy islet to resupply and collect materials for the repairs. Aster is hollering at the crew ready to go to shore.
"All right mates, listen up, we're here for ten minutes. "Any of you blokes who gets lost, gets left."
Jack is once again looking over the damages, double-checking and analyzing what they would need for repairs. He groaned, holding up a stick of wood. "How did one fishbone do so much damage?" he clenched his fist around the wood in frustration, snapping it. For that, he cringed. Toothless sniffed it, eyeing Jack curiously. "All right," he got on his feet, walking towards the main deck where Aster was and he's gratified that at least the wheel was still in one piece. "I'm going to need the full set of chisels, the jack plane, and about a cord of cut wood."
"All right mates, you heard the Captain. Find some logs an' be quick about it, this isn't an island resort."
Jack moaned, rubbing a portion of his ship that had been heavily damaged dramatically ... because Hiccup was just a little ways off, making to go down the gang plank and into dry land, so Jack wanted to make a point and make the brunette feel bad. This, however, only earned an eye-roll from the ambassador.
"Oh for Thor's sakes!" Hiccup interjected as the twins passed him and went down the plank, snickering at Jack's dramatic antics. "you only need a little tree sap, and it'll be as good as new." The brunette grabbed a bucket as he trudged down on the plank.
Jack rolled his eyes upwards. "When I want your advice, I'll-" Jack turned his around, trailing off when he sees Hiccup going ashore too. "Hey, hey, hey! Where do you think you're going?" He asked, but Hiccup didn't turn his head back. He groaned. "Well, fine. Good luck saving your own but when no one will back you u-"
Even before Jack could finish his sass, a few of the crew flocked Hiccup; some in admiration like Daggur, Torch and Toothless, the others interested in knowing what really happened while they were out like the twins and Snoutlout. Hiccup only came out of his room now after his screaming match with Jack so they could only ask about it now.
"Thanks guys but I think I'm covered with the back-ups. Nice to know there are some decent people on this ship!" Hiccup laughed, making his statement be heard by the annoying captain still on the ship. "I'll tell you what happened after we get some supplies,"
Jack narrowed his eyes in annoyance as he heard someone walk behind him. By the sound of the odd footing, it was Gobber. "Not so fast."
"But ya know he's right," Gobber pointed out, putting the bucket he carried down. "tree sap would be perfec' for..."
Jack huffed, raising a hand to silence him. "Just... stay and guard the ship with Aster." He grabbed his staff from where he left it lying and jumped over the railings and unto dry land, walking towards Hiccup and his crew. "I already said thank you! That's what this is all about, isn't it?"
"It's about repairing the ship," Hiccup corrected shortly, approaching a tree. "if I break something I fix it. Hmmm," the brunette scrutinized a tree until he approved of it. "Knife please?"
Jack snorted, crossing his arms. "Oh, yeah," he rolled his eyes, scoffing. "like I'd give you a weapon?" he smirked. But he didn't have to as Daggur, Tuffnut, and Torch pulled out their blades for Hiccup.
"Thanks Daggur," Hiccup smiled, taking the weapon and turning back to the tree. He didn't need to sass Jack, it was embarrasing enough. "now let's see..."
Daggur laughed as the others pouted, sheathing their blades. The deranged rope climber jumped back beside the Captain. "See that? Hah, you really ought to be a little more decent." He mocked, eyeing the brunette working on the tree up and down appreciatively therefore not seeing Jack raising his fist. "I might actually beat you to him, haha-!" The laughter was cut short was a fist slammed into his face and he was knocked sidewards off the boulder he was perched on.
"Oh, great," Jack grunted, walking nearer to the rest of the crew. "now I'm getting etiquette lessons from a crazy climber."
Hiccup was focused on his work as Torch spoke up. "well, he did save us and the ship, Captain." the boy pointed out.
"Why, thank you, Torch." Hiccup smiled at the child, the knife caught on the tree trunks. "I think he needs the reminder," the brunette turned back to the tree, sawing through it. Until the sap spilled out and he proceeded to collect it with the bucket.
Tuffnut continued. "And now he is helping to fix it, so give it a rest, y'know?"
"Very handy... And brave!"
"Plus, he did fixed up Toothless's tail as well, no charge."
Toothless nooded vigorously.
Jack just about had it. "Okay, that tears it..." he huffed, waving his hands in the air. "this fishbone wouldn't know how to fix a single broken wheel for a Yak wagon!" he snapped, turning on his heels and heading back to the general direction of the ship.
"Really," Hiccup huffed, finally giving his attention to the frustrating Captain. "you are the most cocky, boar-headed man I've ever met."
Jack turned back to Hiccup, looking cocky. "Hey runt, I've seen the highborn boys like you mingling at the party. And lemme tell you," he smirked, pointing at himself proudly. "... I'm the only man you ever met there." He looked behind his shoulder once before walking off. "Even you don't cut it!"
The crew blinked, eyeing Hiccup who looked absolutely outraged. There's a self-preserving smirk playing at Jack's face as he walked back, but at the next instant something hard hits him on the head and a gooey substance spilled from it.
Tree sap.
Jack grunted, the crew either snickers or (in Torch's case) cringes. Toothless doesn't know the significance of what was going on. Hiccup has one hand on his hip, his chin held high and smirking at Jack when the Captain turned his gaze to him once more. The crew watches in silence and anticipation, Tuffnut muttering something about bringing out the blood.
"Whoa."
Jack glared, before bending down to scoop up a bunch of muddy dirt from the ground. Hiccup's face fell to a frown, narrowing his eyes warningly.
"Oh, no..." He said sternly, as if chastising a child. "No. No, no..." Then his face is met with mud and he is knocked off his feet.
Ruffnut leaned towards her brother. "Five on Hiccup."
"No fair, I was gonna bet on him." Tuffnut complained as the brunette got back on his feet looking, if possible, even angrier than before.
Torch winces. "This can't be good..."
"You kiddin'?" Daggur laughed. "This is gonna be awesome!"
Hiccup wiped the mud off his face. "You... you... Egotistical..." he stopped, seeing a bit of mud let so he wipes it off, giving Jack to voice his thoughts.
"You snarky runt..." Jack huffed, fixing his vest and wiping off the rest of the sap.
Hiccup picked up a large-shelled hermit crab. "...Overbearing... Self-preserving..."
"Sarcastic!" Jack mocked before moving quickly out of the way as soon as the crab was thrown.
Hiccup cried out in frustration. "Self-centered, Thick-headed...!"
Jack was giving the crab a once over before continuing. "High-and-mighty..." he trailed off as a rock hits him on the forehead. He glared hotly.
"Self-preserving, untrusthworthy, ungrateful, impossible, insufferable, good-for-nothing ...!" Hiccup ranted on, throwing anything his hands can carry towards the captain in all his frustration. "HEARTLESS FROSTBUTT!"
Jack got on the brunette's face. "AT LEAST I'M NOT A REPRESSED FISHBONE!"
"Repressed?!" Hiccup repeated, outraged. "I'll show you repressed!" He bent down to pick up a slab of rock that seemd to be attached to the ground and raised it above his head, moving into Jack.
The Captain held his ground when suddenly a a large collection of smoke bursted out from the spot Hiccup picked the slab off from. Everyone flinches, turning their attention to the occurence.
"What the...?" Jack muttered as the smke suddenly surrounded them, and he could hear someone muttering Fog monster among his crew. With making sudden movements, he spoke to Hiccup. "put it back..."
Hiccup nodded cautiously, dropping the slab. The next thing happened so fast, and the smoke whirled around them. There were cries and screams, all of them gathering together, back-to-backs. Toothless kept snarling. When the smoke cleared, they all checked themselves in panic, wondering if they were still alive. When they ascertained that they were, they noticed what was wrong. Except for the staff, all their weapons were taken. And that wasn't the only things that were.
"My helmet!"
A/N: Incase it wasn't clear, let's just say Monty is Sophie's suitor. I won't really expect a lot of review for this one, I'm really stacked up with a boatload of work for college so... yeah... I wanted this out to at least apologize for lack of updates and giving so much attention to SUMMER WITH MAFIAS. Cause it's always fun starting to stories. Anyways, two more chapters for this before I go back to NIGHTMARE GAMES. And after that, the new Disney au!
(If you read my SUMMER WITH THE MAFIAS you'll know why I'm updating this two more times. And these two other chapters mostly contains is about this arc.)
Urgh! I'm sorry but I just can't seem to do any worth while alterations here! But if you forgive me for this uncreative chapter and wait you'll see alterations on the next one. I'm unhappy with this update.
