——————————————————————————
Hiccups' Room, Velvet Theater, Morning
Hiccup awoke to something in his arms like last morning, when his vision cleared he saw Lavenza in his arms wearing her blue and gold accent Toothless onesie which still made him go awe and blush at her adorableness.
Hiccup lifted his arm that was on top of her off gently and quietly, then slowly removed his other arm that was beneath her, he then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Astrid stir and got herself up from the lower bunkbed she slept in, she saw Lavenza sleeping like a baby in Hiccups' bed and heard the shower running, which meant that Hiccup is taking a shower.
Astrid then gently shaked Lavenza up.
"Hey Lavenza, it's time to wake up." Astrid whispered
"No... 10 more minutes..." Lavenza said still asleep
Astrid then said something that might make Lavenza up instantly
"Don't you want to kiss Hiccup?" Astrid asked
"ABSOLUTELY!" Lavenza awoke quickly with such speed she made Astrid fall on her rear in surprise.
"Whoa, calm down Lavenza." Astrid said
"Where's Hiccup?" Lavenza asked rubbing her eyes
"He's in the shower." Astrid said pointing her thumb at the Bathroom door "Let's go get something to eat while we wait for him, alright?" Astrid suggested
"Alright." Lavenza said as she changed her clothes to what she usually wears (Remeber Astird is there so it is fine)
After she was dressed, her and Astrid went to the Velvet Cafeteria to get some breakfast. Lavenza ate a couple of flapjacks, orange juice, and a fruit bowl. Astrid ate some cooked eggs, orange juice, and cereal.
"So how did you end up in Hiccups' bed this time?" Astrid asked curious
"Arsene dragged me by my hoodie and placed me in Hiccups' arms without him knowing." Lavenza answered
"I been meaning to ask this since Arsene arrived, but who is Arsene, Zorro, and Captain Kidd really?" Astrid asked
"In real life they have yet to exist in your time period, but in the future they are a bit famous." Lavenza said to Astrid
"Famous how?" Astrid asked intrigued
"Arsene is a fictional gentleman thief, a gentleman thief is a thief that usually has inherited wealth and is characterised by impeccable manners, charm, courteousness, and the avoidance of physical force or intimidation to steal. He was created in 1905 by a French writer named Maurice Leblanc." Lavenza said "He only targeted those who were worse than him."
"Wait, Leblanc? That the place Hiccup is staying at, that cannot be a coincidence." Astrid said "What about Zorro?"
"Zorro is another fictional chapter created in 1919 by an American pulp writer by the name of Johnston McCulley. He is a masked swordsman of justice who fought in California against corrupt officials during the era of Spanish rule. He always leaves a "Z" mark with his rapier wherever he appeared." Lavenza said
"So Zorro is a man who fought against corrupt officials, interesting. Is Captain Kidd a fictional character too?" Astrid asked
"No." Lavenza said shocking Astrid "William Kidd, or Captain Kidd, was a real Scottish sailor who was tried and hanged for piracy after returning from a voyage to the Indian Ocean some claim Kidd piratical reputation unjust, but it is said that he left some treasure before he died and people are still looking for it to this day." Lavenza said "Some rumors said that Kidd was also a pirate."
"What's a pirate?" Astrid asked
"A pirate is a person or crew of people who attacks and robs ships at sea, they are kinda famous in modern history." Lavenza said
"So wait you're telling me I have a famous dead guy who buried treasure?" Snotlout asked as he appeared from his impressive realistic-looking bush ghillie suit.
"Snotlout? What are you doing here?" Astrid and Lavenza asked
"I was here to see if I can prank anyone." Snotlout said
"And I told you to stay quiet, matey." Captain Kidd said
"Oh, go back from the grave from whence you came, you old bag of bones."
"Oh, you're calling me an old bag of bones, ey Viking?" Captain Kidd asked
"I think it's time for us to continue watching, don't you agree Astrid." Lavenza asked
"Yup, I'll go tell Hiccup." Astrid said as she left to go get her boyfriend.
All the while Snotlout and Captain Kidd were having a shouting competition, but after surprisingly 10 seconds, they made up and shooked hands
——————————————————————————
Velvet Theater, Evening
The Vikings and Dragons all went to their seats as Hiccup saw Lavenza and blushed a bit, Lavenza saw Hiccup and waved her hand calmly, but she hid a blush. Hiccup, Snotlout, and Toothless all changes into their Metaverse clothes/forms.
"Hey Lavenza, how are you today?" Hiccup asked
"I am doing fine, Hiccup, how are you?" Lavenza Replied and asked Hiccup
"I'm doing well." Hiccup replied as Lavenza remembered something
"Everyone, can I have your attention." Everyone listened to Lavenza "This viewing might be a bit short, so please bare with me." Everyone understood and went to take their seats
As the Vikings and Dragons went to their seats, the lights dimmed and the screen brightens to show...
(King, Queen, and Slave — Persona 5)
Hiccup, Snotlout, and Toothless out of Kamoshida's Palace all tired and exhausted from running.
"*pant* *pant*" Hiccup and Snotlout panted with exhaustion
"*pant* Anyways!" Snotlout said somehow already rejuvenated
The audience laughed at how fast Snotlout got up, with his energy full and treated like nothing had happened.
Snotlout turns to Hiccup and Toothless telling them he doesn't remeber his clothes changing
"I don't remember changin' into this!" Snotlout said
"It looks good on you." Hiccup complimented
"Uhh... Should I be happy about that?" Snotlout asked at the same time as Snotlout
Snotlout didn't know if he should be happy about that or not
"Uhh... Should I be happy about that?" Snotlout asked at the same time as Snotlout
"...Then again, it ain't as bad as yours." Snotlout said
"Hey, this suit isn't that bad, I like it." Hiccup said a bit angered
"Hey, this suit isn't that bad, I like it." Hiccup said a bit angered
"Did you find them!?" A Pursuer's Voice asked
Toothless got up and told Hiccup and Snotlout to be quiet
"Quiet!" Toothless said
"No. Search that way!" Another Pursuer's Voice said
Snotlout was still confused on what is going on
"So what's goin' on? I'm completely lost, man..." Snotlout said
"When isn't he?" Ruffnut asked her brother jokingly who laughed
"I told you before." Toothless said "When a Persona-user opposes a Palaces's ruler and becomes a threat to them, this happens." Toothless added "It's to prevent you from being affected by distortions."
"Wait these clothings/form protect us from distortions?" Metaverse Toothless said surprised
"Yes, your form and their clothing protects anyone from distortions when they become a threat to the Palace's ruler." Lavenza said
Snotlout feels the mask and he thinks it is a skull
"Is this... a skull?" Snotlout asked a bit disturbed by his dark grey mask
"Your appearance reflects your inner self. It's the rebel that slumbers within..." Toothless said "... Not that you'll get it." Toothless taunted
"Why I outta...!" Snotlout shouted before being dog-piled by Hiccup and the other 7 dragon riders (Hiccup, Astrid, Fishlegs, Ruffnut, Tuffnut, Heather, and Dagur), Snotlout calmed down
"I'm okay. I'm fine." Snotlout said calmly
"Nope..." Snotlout unhappily agreed
"Hahahahahahahaha!" Everyone laughed at Snotlout agreeing that he doesn't understand what Toothless is saying
"Then stop asking questions and accept what you see for what it is." Toothless said
Snotlout crosses his arms
"Easy for you to say."/"Easy for you to say." Both Snotlouts' said at the same time
Snotlout then realizes that they are in deep shit
"*gasp* Wait, we're in deep shit!" Snotlout said in shock
"I said to be quiet!" Toothless said angry again at Snotlout bluntness
"We might've gotten away here, but we're still screwed with Kamoshida at the real school..." Snotlout said
"He does have a point." Mala said
"That's quite sharp of you!" Toothless complimented
"Are you finally comp—."
"... For being an idiot." Toothless insulted
"Nevermind..." Snotlout said
The audience, except Snotlout, laughed at Toothless compliment/insult at Snotlout
Toothless then explained why
"Relax. The Kamoshida in reality can't possibly know about what happens here." Toothless said
"Why's that?" Heather asked
"A Shadow is the true self that is suppressed—a side of one's personality they don't want to see." Toothless said
"So Shadows are our true selves that we never wants to see in reality?" Fishlegs said
"Yes, many people have a dark truth they never want anyone to see in life." Lavenza said
Snotlout asks if that is a good thing
"... So we're OK?" Snotlout asked a bit confused
"Did the Kamoshida in reality remember about the execution?" Toothless asked with his paws crossed
"No." Hiccup and Snotlout said at the same time
Snotlout realizes that Toothless is right, the real Kamoshida never remembered his Shadow trying to execute them.
"There you have it." Toothless said confidently
Snotlout is relieved to hear that
"All right! Now that we know that, all we gotta do is—." Snotlout Said before being interrupted
"Wait. I guided you as promised. It's your turn to cooperate with me." Toothless said
Both Hiccup and Snotlout are confused by what Toothless means
"That's why I was super nice about teaching you idiots everything." Toothless explained
"Huh? Cooperate?" Snotlout said confused
"Don't you remember? I originally came here for an investigation." Toothless said "I need to erase the distortion from my body and regain my real form!" He said
He then added words no one will ever forget.
"That's why we must delve deep into Mementos and—." Toothless said
"Mementos?" Everyone asked
"It will show itself soon." Lavenza said
"Whoa, holdup. What're you goin' on and on about?" Snotlout asked confused by what Toothless is saying
"Exactly!? What is Mementos?" Snotlout said
"We never said anything about helpin' you out." Snotlout said
Toothless is shocked that they won't repay his hospitality
"Huh? Don't tell me... Are you not going to repay the hospitality I showed you?" Toothless said as he turned to Hiccup "Especially you! You're going to up and leave, even though you're already part of my master plan!!"
"What plan?"/"What plan?" Hiccup and Hiccup asked
"Is it because I'm not human...? Because I'm a cat...? Is that why you're making a fool of me!?" Toothless said growling
"No, you're using me." Hiccup said
"We're busy!" Snotlout said as he walks up to Toothless and crouched down to him to thank Toothless
"Thanks for everything, cat. You've got guts, Benin' a cat and all!" Snotlout said "See you around!" He added
Hiccup and Toothless left Kamoshida's Palace as Toothless looked on in shock of what happened
"You ditched me!?" Metaverse Toothless said shocked
"Hey! What the hell!? Ugh, seriously! Why're you wrapping this up like everything's all hunky-dory!?" Toothless said "Oh hell no! Get back here! ...Grr... GRAAGGGHHH!" Toothless screamed
The audience laughed at Toothless yelling and cursing in anger that they had to grab their sides.
"Bwwaaaaaahahahahaha!!!" Hiccup laughed
"THIS IS NOT FUNNY, HICCUP!!!" Metaverse Toothless screamed
"I-I-I'm so sorry Toothless, I cannot help myself, hahahahaha!" Hiccup apologized before laughing again
"Grrr..." Metaverse Toothless growled baring his teeth
Black and Red ripples filled the screen again signifying that Hiccup and Snotlout were returning to the Real World
Hiccup, Snotlout, and Metaverse Toothless returned back to their original clothing/forms after the familiar voice of a certain app said...
"You have returned to the real world. Welcome back." The Metaverse Navigator said
(Tension — Persona 5 (I think that's the songs name)
Hiccup and Snotlout were seen panting in the shortcut to the school
Snotlout then apologizes to Hiccup again
"I dragged you around a lot, huh? ...Sorry, man." Snotlout apologized "Ugh, I'm dead tired... How you holding' up?" Snotlout asked Hiccup
"I could use a nap." Hiccup said
"Me too... Man, I'm gonna sleep like a rock when I get home." Snotlout said
"Okay, Snotlout try not to get stoned." (Ba dum tish) Tuffnut said, not realizing what Stoned meant, but Astrid does
"But damn, if what we saw was for real, this is gonna get good!" Snotlout said excited "I totally remember the faces of the guys Kamoshida was treatin' like slaves." Snotlout said happy "Once we make 'em fess up to any physical abuse, Kamoshida will be done."
The audience cheered at that Idea
"I am so going to be happy, no one messes with my Girlfriend like that." Hiccup said scaring a few
"They are not going to talk." Lavenza said to herself, but Astrid silently heard but didn't say anything
Snotlout asks Hiccup to find the witnesses he remembered
"So... wanna help me look for those guys or any witnesses?" Snotlout asked
"Sure, I'll help." Hiccup said
"Now that's what I'm talkin' about!" Snotlout shouted excited
Snotlout then thinks of helping Hiccup stay low and talks to Hiccup about it
"Hey, so..." Snotlout said "If you're thinkin' of layin' low 'cause you got a record, I don't think that'll help..." Snotlout said
"Hmm, He does have a point, Hiccup." Viggo said "With everyone at school knowing your record, it is not easy to lay low anymore."
"Everyone already knows. They totally got you pegged as a criminal." Snotlout said upset as he was just like him, framed for something they didn't commit.
"How'd that happen?" Hiccup asked
"Kamoshida opened his damn mouth!" Snotlout said angered
"Seriously? But why?" Hiccup asked
"No one else besides a teacher could've leaked it that fast!" Snotlout said
"He's got another point, only those with the knowledge of that, could spread it that fast." Fishlegs said
"It doesn't matter if it's a student or a club; that asshole just wrecks things he doesn't agree with." Snotlout said getting pissed of again "Just like he did with me...!" He added
"No one'll take anything I say seriously." Snotlout said to Hiccup "Still, those rumors about him gettin' physical might be real." Snotlout said with a bit of hope. "And after seein' Kamoshida's distorted-heart thing in person, there's no way I can just sit back!" Snotlout said
"Of course." Hiccup agreed with Snotlout
"I'm countin' on you! Don't worry; I'm hyped about this too!" Snotlout said
'I can sense a bond of trust coming from Snotlout...' Hiccup thought
The audience smiled that at least these Hiccups' and Snotlouts' are kind to one another.
The calendar on the upper left was shown as the audience could see the days go by faster and faster reaching the present once again
(Interrogation Room— Persona 5)
Hiccup was back in the exact same position the audience was in last time.
Sae then opened her eyes as it seems she was trying to imagine Hiccups' past, she then talked to Hiccup about a bit of his team and saying he choose to work together instead of alone
"Acting as a Phantom Thief would've been more efficient alone. You could've gone about it that way..." Sae said calmly "However, you did not. There are merits to having associates... That's what you decided." She said
She then looks at Hiccup scaring the audience with her glare "Am I wrong?" Sae asked knowing she was not.
The scene changed back to 4/17/20XX as the audience heard Lavenza's voice speak as time froze around Hiccup...
(Regret — Persona 5)
I am thou, thou art I...
Thou hast acquired a new vow.
It shall become the wings of rebellion
that breaketh thy chains of captivity.
With the birth of the Chariot Persona,
I have obtained the winds of blessing that
shall lead to freedom and new power...
A card then appeared with a man with a sprained arm is in a Chariot pulled by two beasts of with reversed color the one on the left is a white horse while the one on the right is a black horse below the card it reads "Le•Chariot" and above is letters signifying the number 7 being "VII"
Next to the card are word like "Confidant: Snotlout Sakamoto Jorgenson" and "Arcana: Chariot" and "Rank: 1" on a bar
"What is that, Lavenza?" Hiccup asked
"That is the Chariot tarot card, they are cards used in some of the modern era to tell your future using symbols, when the card faces upright it sometimes means something good, when it faces downright it means the reversal." Lavenza explained
"And what is the Chariot Arcana?" Snotlout asked curious about his Arcana
"The Chariot in the Upright position means Assistance, Providence and War, Triumph, Presumption, Vengence, and Trouble. Reversed it means Riot, Quarrel, Dispute, Litigation, and Defeat." Lavenza said as Snotlout could see that the Chariot Arcana fits him very well, specifically the Reversed.
"And the others?" Heather asked curious about her Confidant
"I will tell you once they appear." Lavenza said to Heather, making everyone groan in agony they really wanted to know their Arcana
Time started once again as Snotlout spoke to Hiccup hungry for some beef bowl.
"Oh..." Snotlout remembered he hasn't eaten anything since lunch. "Right. I haven't eaten anything since lunch." Snotlout said
"It's be weird splittin' off now, so why don't we grab a bite somewhere?" Snotlout asked Hiccup
"Thanks cuz." Hiccup said as it would be awkward for someone to leave without eating
"Sure." Hiccup said
"Just follow me." Snotlout said as they left the alleyway "I mean, I totally gotta hear about your past!" Snotlout said interested in his new friends' past.
The two friends left to a gyūdon restaurant (literally means "beef bowl")
"Hey What is it that me and Use-full are eating?" Snotlout asked not used to calling Hiccup Useful, eew it even left a bad taste in MY mouth.
"You are eating a Gyūdon, it means "beef bowl", it is a Japanese dish consisting of a bowl of rice topped with beef and onion simmered in a mildly sweet sauce flavored with dashi, soy sauce and mirin. It sometimes also includes shirataki noodles, and is sometimes topped with a raw egg or a soft poached egg." Lavenza said (Man, that just SOUNDS so delicious, even I'm drooling!)
Hiccup finished his story of what happened with Snotlout as he looks at Hiccup in shock
"And that leads us to now." Hiccup said
"WHAT!?" Snotlout said in shock and disbelief his voice reverts back to puberty for a bit "The hell, man! How much shittier can that asshole get!?"
"Calm down. It's in the past..." Hiccup calmed Snotlout down "Also, I'm still eating." Hiccup said to also try to calm Snotlout down
"Hahahahaha!" Hiccup laughed at what he said like it was nothing "He just treated that like it was nothing! Hahahaha!"
The audience didn't get it at first, but one after another they started to get it and joined Hiccup in on the laughter.
"Oh. My bad." Snotlout apologized, Snotlout then tries to shorten Hiccups' story all while stuffing his face down with beef and rice "So... you left your hometown, and... you're livin' here now, huh?" Snotlout said with food in his mouth
Hiccup then continues to eat his gyūdon as Snotlout then realizes they are more alike then ever
"We might be more alike than I originally thought." Snotlout said
"How so?" Hiccup asked
"Uh, it's not exactly "how," but... y'know." Snotlout said
"We were both framed for something we didn't commit." Hiccup said understanding what Snotlout meant.
"I guess it's how we're treated like a pain in the ass by the people around us, like we don't belong." Snotlout said sighing "I did something stupid at school before, too."
"When has he NOT done something stupid?" Astrid asked making Hiccup and Lavenza chuckle
Snotlout then began to chow down on his gyūdon with his chopsticks in one go.
The audience to say the least were very surprised that Snotlout downed that gyūdon like it was nothing, guess he really likes beef bowls.
"The place you're livin' now is in... Yongen, right?" Snotlout asked "It's rush hour in the subways. I suggest you kill some time before headin' home." Snotlout said
Snotlout notices that Hiccup hasn't even finish his gyūdon at all
"What the hell, man. You barely touched your food." Snotlout said as he put more ginger on Hiccups' gyūdon
"What are you doing?" Hiccup asked
"Just lemme do it. I gotta thank you for helpin' me." Snotlout said "Anyways, I got your back like you got mine from tomorrow on." He said "As long as we do something about Kamoshida, I'm sure we'll both feel better about bein' at school." Snotlout said
"Agreed." Hiccup said
Snotlout then remembers something
"Oh, yeah!" Snotlout said realizing "Tell me your number. Chat ID too." Snotlout said as he grabbed his phone from his pocket
Hiccup grabbed his phone and told Snotlout his Number and Chat ID.
"Just you wait, Kamoshida..." Snotlout said happy to get back at that perverted asshole "We're gonna start right away tomorrow. First, let's hit up those guys that were kept as slaves." Snotlout said forming a plan
"Snotlout forming a plan, Wow Lavenza you were right about us saying things we never say." Hiccup said
"T-T-Thank you, H-Hiccup." Lavenza blushed when Hiccup talked to her
"The volleyball rally's tomorrow, huh? Shit's recommend by Kamoshida. Makes me wanna gag." Snotlout said
"Don't worry me, I got it, bleagh!" Snotlout said gagging at the end
"But thanks to that, we got no classes in the afternoon, and we can walk around unnoticed." Snotlout said
"Snotlout, lets work out the details tomorrow, Alright?" Hiccup asked
"Well, I guess we can work out the details tomorrow..." Snotlout agreed
Snotlout notices that Hiccup hasn't eaten more of his gyūdon
"C'mon, you got to eat more. There's tons of ginger here." Snotlout said as he placed more ginger on Hiccups' bowl
"I think this me and Snotlout are going to get along just fine." Hiccup said with a smile
Hiccup just sweatdropped as Snotlout began to put more ginger on his food.
The scene shifts to the school with Astrid and a girl sitting next to each other.
The girl has yellow sunshine eyes, she also has light blue and gold hair tied in a ponytail with the tips being gold looking like spines and the entire hair is light blue. Her ponytail is held up by a pink elastic band. Her bangs are parted to her left. She also has two tan hairpins. She wears the standardized female Shujin Academy uniform without the black jacket nor the suspenders, this donning a beige turtleneck sweater rolled up to her elbows, as well as the standard uniform skirt. She has a light blue knee brace on her right leg. Around her elbows and under her skirt, a black bandage of some sort can be seen. She also has light beige running shoes with the end of where her toes are looking almost like bird talons, and tan ankle socks.
This is Shiho 'Stormfly' Suzui, best friend of Astrid.
"Hey Lavenza, who am I talking to?" Astrid asked curious about the girl she is sitting next to
"That is Shiho Suzui, but a lot of people call her, Stormfly." Lavenza said
"Wait, that's my dragon?" Astrid said shocked
The real Stormfly was surprised to see herself as a human, but at least she was friends with her rider still.
Both Astrid and Stormfly were talking to each other, but Stormfly seemed downtrodden about something, Astrid notices and listens to her best friend
"..." Stormfly sighed "I-I haven't been sleeping well lately..." She said a bit upset "Whenever I close my eyes, I keep thinking about too many things..."
The audience feels Stormfly is upset about something as is likely having depression, though they don't know what that is yet.
"Stormfly..." Astrid said worried for her bestest friend
Stormfly decides to talk about the Nationals that are coming up soon
"Nationals are coming up soon, so I keep thinking..." Stormfly said "Should someone like me really be on the starting lineup...?" She asked
"Don't worry. Just be confident in yourself!" Astrid tried to cheer her friend up "Your skills have been recognized! It's all because you work harder than anyone else!" She added
"..." Stormfly stayed silent "Yeah... Volleyball's all I have, after all..." She said upset about it
"More importantly, was that injury OK? It looked really swollen." Astrid asked
The audience also notices the bracer, though they don't know if that is either from Kamoshida or a different accident.
Stormfly shakes her head saying it was nothing
"No, it's nothing. It's normal... Especially since a meet's coming up..." Stormfly said
"I don't like the way she said that." Hiccup said
"I don't either, babe." Astrid said worried for her humanized dragon
"Seriously, you have a swollen leg, and you say "it's normal..." that makes no sense." Gobber said with Gothi nodding her head in agreement (she can't speak)
"..." Astrid sighs
The audience, Astrid and Stormfly see Gustav walking up to the two girls
"Sorry to interrupt, Suzui." Gustav said As he told her that Kamoshida told him to get her "Um... Mr. Kamoshida told me to get you." Gustav said
"Why does she want to see Stormfly." This put Astrid on edge, she has seen what Shadow Kamoshida thinks of this version of her and she did not like it at all.
"Something no teacher should EVER do to a student." Lavenza said with an aggressive growl in her voice.
Stormfly is confused by this
"Huh?" Stormfly said "What does he want...?" She asked
Gustav looks down to the side a bit, and what he said next made everyone go on edge, even the dragons
"He didn't say..." Gustav said
The audience didn't like Kamoshida, non more than Astrid and Stormfly since they are best friends in that universe and in their own.
"..." Stormfly sighed she then tries to talk to Astrid but doesn't look at her "Astrid, I..." She said
Astrid notices that Stormfly is scared and tries to help-ish her out
"..." Astrid sighed "It'll be fine! I bet it's a meeting about the starting lineup or something." Astrid said to help her best friend
"..." Stormfly doesn't say anything "...Yeah." Stormfly said a bit cheerful (I feel so sorry for her, and I am not being sarcastic at all)
The audience gave a worried look to each other as they hope something terrible doesn't happen to this Stormfly.
Stormfly gets up from the bench, with Astrid following soon after
Stormfly seemed to be unhappy again
"Well, I better go..." Stormfly said
"Yup. Good luck!" Astrid cheered but If was a forced cheer
"Okay, Wow, that is one forced cheer even for you." Hiccup said as he winced
"I cannot argue, even I agree that was forced." Astrid said as she winced
Stormfly nods her head and goes to Kamoshida's office with Gustav following behind.
Astrid then spoke to her firend but she couldn't hear it
"Hang in there, Shiho...!" Astrid said hoping her friend will be alright
The audience got instantly worried after Astird said that
"I hope nothing bad happens to this Stormfly." Valka said to Stoick
"Me too dear, me too." Stoick said
The day shifts from After School to Evening
(Beneath the Mask— Persona 5)
The scene shifts to Hiccup walking into Leblanc with Gobber working on his crossword puzzle
Gobber notices that Hiccup is home
"...You're home." Gobber said "I take it you actually went to school today?" He asked
"Of course." Hiccup said
Gobber shakes his head to clear his mind a bit
"I guess you learned your lesson after what happened yesterday." Gobber said "Eh, as long as you're not getting into trouble, it's fine by me." He said "I don't know what you've been up to, trust me, you'll be gone if you start causing problems." He added "In case you forget, your life is not a free one right now."
"I know, Sakura-San." Hiccup said
"Please, call me Gobber. I like the formalities of first names." Gobber said
"Alright, Gobber." Hiccup said
*ping* *ping*
Hiccup picked up his phone and looked at it, it is a text from Snotlout
'Hey, I decided to go ahead and message you.'
'Can you see this?' He text
'Yep.' Hiccup texted back
'I'm gonna be counting on you tomorrow, OK?' Snotlout texted
'What about?' Hiccup texted with a tiny smirk on his face
The audience laughed at Hiccups' response
'C'mon, don't play dumb...' Snotlout replied
The audience laughed harder at Snotlouts' response
'We've come this far, so you gotta stick with me to the end.' Snotlout texted
'Alright, alright...' Hiccup texted
'Okay, Let's save those guys who've been getting abused. You and me.' Snotlout texted back
'Okay, see you tomorrow.'
Hiccup put his phone away as Gobber looked at him thinking he didn't listen to him
"...Sheesh, are you even listening to me?" Gobber asked "Just stay away from bad influences, OK?" He asked
"I will." Hiccup said as he went upstairs as Gobber places his Newspaper where he last left it
He turns to Hiccup saying he is going home for tonight
"Hey, I'm gonna head home for the night." Gobber said "I'll lock the store up. Don't go wandering out." He said
"Okay, I won't." Hiccup said as he went to his room
The scene shifts to Hiccup upstairs as he was about to go to bed he heard his phone ringing.
He looks t it and sees Snotlout wanting to talk about the Nav
'That thingy in your phone was some red eyeball icon, right?' Snotlout texted
"No Snotlout, it was Magenta." Hiccup sarcastically said making Lavenza and Astrid laugh
'Right.' Hiccup texted
'We ended up at that weird place when we used this nav app, right?' Snotlout texted
'I found it on my phone too...'
"Guess that's what Igor meant, anyone who goes into a Palace will get that app." Hiccup said
"What about if someone is pulled in?" Fishlegs asks
"Then that would be big trouble." Hiccup replied
'I don't even remember installing it!' Snotlout texted
'That's creepy.' Hiccup replied
'For real. What is this thing...?' Snotlout texted
'Think it's being downloaded on its own somehow?'
'It's dangerous to use something without knowing what it is...'
'But with it, we can go to that weird place, right?' Snotlout texted
'Seems like it.' Hiccup replied
'Basically, it's gonna depend on how we use it.' Snotlout texted back
'But first we gotta find evidence for the beatings.'
'I'm counting on you, all right? Don't go ditching school on me.' Snotlout said
'Okay, mom.' Hiccup replied
The audience all laughed at Hiccups' response to Snotlouts' text message
Hiccup then took off his prosthetic foot and changed into his nighttime clothes and went to bed
'I feel exhausted. Maybe it's because of that Metaverse...' Hiccup thought to himself as he went to bed.
The screen darkened as the lights turned back on.
The Vikings and Dragons all got up from their seats and left the building.
"So Lavenza, you wanna go hang out sometime?" Hiccup asked
'Please say yes, Please say yes.' Justine and Caroline said inside Lavenza's head
"Yes, I would love to." Lavenza said as she and Hiccup both left the Theater with Astird watching them
"Think they'll ever figure it out?" Heather asked Astrid
"It took Hiccup almost 3 years to ask me out and for me to be betrothaled, so I would say yes." Astird said
