Book Hiccup POV (pets and the basic introduction)
I walk into school for my first day of year 9, I'm early and hardly anyone is at school yet. My pet rat Wodensfang (what? It's a good name!) snores in the upper pocket of my shirt. I know I'm not supposed to bring him in… but he was getting lonely at the house because my Komodo dragon (yes, I know, awesome!) Toothless has gone to stay at the vets today (he's very troublesome!) and Dad's off on Co-Mayorly duties, Mum's on a business trip yet again….so that would leave Wodensfang alone in our house; and I didn't really want him to get lonely (or eat something he's not supposed to) so….he ended up in my shirt pocket on my way to school.
I hurry to my locker and place in about 10 books at the back, followed by any excess stuff I don't need for now, which includes my P.E kit. I turn the key in my locker and manage to squeeze everything in, when I turn around I see that my locker room has a few more students in it. I cast my eyes around for my best friend Fishlegs, but apparently he hasn't made it yet. Two blond girls stand in the corner bickering over something, I follow my usual routine and blend into the background to make sure Wodensfang is happy, and safely hidden. Ooh..I know I shouldn't have brought him into school, but he'd get so lonely otherwise! He squeaks a little, but luckily no-one heard; I reach into my pocket and draw out some cheese for him to nibble on. That should keep him quiet for a bit.
As I start thinking about whether we'll get any homework today, Fishlegs arrives. "Hello!" he says cheerily, then goes to his locker to put away his own stuff.
Astrid POV (friends and tutor time)
"Yeah, but I'm better at lock-picking than you!" Camicazi boasts. "Cos that's so legal and a great thing to brag about!" I shoot back. She grins unrepentfully. I smile back. Ever since I started here half a term ago, Camicazi has been my best friend/verbal duelling partner. I taught her judo and in exchange, I now can pick locks. I've made other friends too - the two Hiccup's and the two Fishlegs'. Me and Camicazi mostly hang around with taller Hiccup who is a good friend, maybe a bit more of -
No. Not allowing that thought in. Moving on. I sometimes mess around with the twins but not much - they have a reputation for mischief and spending most of their lives in detention. The Snots as we call them are the most irritating idiots I've ever had to encounter - they pester me 24/7 and are constantly trying to partner, well, anyone they deem pretty. Ew.
My backpack shakes and I glance down. "Shh." I whisper and it stops. I should have known that bringing Stormfly was doomed to fail - monkeys need a lot of space but if I left her home, my parents might have given her the wrong food or she might have eaten the mouse poison. Not good.
Mrs Baker walks in and starts calling the register. For a food technology teacher, she doesn't seem to eat that much… Finally, finally! We are sent to the first lesson.
