Chapter 4- To Freak Out A Viking Jerk
Well, hello everyone! Guess what? Today is the day that we are joined by the one, the only, Silkmouse!
*clapping*
*bows* Thank you, thank you. Glad to finally be here everyone.
You ready, Silkmouse?
Yep! I'm ready to terrorize!
Well then, let's get going!
"Mary!" Silkmouse panted to her friend. "Stop!" She puffed "Please! I can't – run - much - longer.
"Neither - can - I." Mary wheezed, leaning up against one of the Viking huts and holding her cramped side. Silkmouse followed suit by plopping down next to her friend and breathing hard.
"Hey, Silkmouse." Mary started once she caught her breath. "What are you even doing here? Not that I'm not glad but…why?"
"Easy." Silkmouse told her friend, standing up. "I came looking for you. In your last PM you said something about a crazy voodoo man and transporting to Berk. I sent a PM back, but you never answered, so I looked up 'voodoo shamans' on Google and came after you."
"But..." Mary looked at her friend, bewildered. "I've only been here for a day!"
"I guess time passes differently here." Silkmouse shrugged as they began walking. "At home, you've been gone for weeks!"
"Weeks!" Mary's face paled. "Oh, my mom is going to kill me!"
"I heard on the news that they were launching an investigation." Silkmouse told her.
"Ugh." Mary moaned. "I am so dead!"
The two kept on walking with Sikmouse telling Mary in a low voice all that had happened since the latter had left. Neither of the two girls saw the large boy come bowling towards them. There was a resounding thud as the figure hit the two and they went flying backwards.
"Watch where you're going!" The large teen yelled at them.
"Us?" Mary shot back as she handed Silkmouse her glasses, which had fallen off when he had hit them. "You're the one who ran into us!"
"Yeah, well you were in my way..." The words died on his lips as he got a good look at the formidable (or so it seemed) girls in front of him. At the same time, the two friends realized just who it was that they had run into.
"Um, no need to apologize ladies." Snotlout told the two girls with a slight bow. "It was all my fault. Completely. Totally. Entirely."
"Snotlout." Silkmouse whispered to Mary. The other girl nodded.
"Ah, so you've heard of me?" Snotlout looked extremely pleased with himself as he smoothed his hair on his "fat" head. "Well then I'm sure you already know how wonderful, kind, generous, and good-looking I am."
"Yeah right." Mary muttered under her breath. Snotlout either didn't hear, too caught up with his 'magnificent' good looks, or he chose to ignore the comment. Whatever it was, he kept talking.
"Tell me, ladies." He reached for Silkmouse's hand and pecked at it before she pulled it away, disgusted. "Where have you two beauties been all my life?"
The two snorted and exchanged a look. Nodding, they both smacked him on the opposite arm, causing him to lose his balance in surprise and fall over.
"Nice try, Flirtlout." Silkmouse snapped at the older boy. "We already know all about you."
"Really?" He asked, trying to get up.
"Yeah." Mary told him. "Like you're a total flirt, you have a strange obsession with Astrid and teasing your totally smart cousin, who just happens to be next in line for Chief, and the reason that you happen to have a Monstrous Nightmare named Fireworm."
"Wow." He said, finally standing up. "Beautiful and smart."
Mary shook her head in obvious disgust. She walked up and kicked him in the shin. Hard.
"Ow!" He yelped.
"Now then," Mary told him like nothing had happened. "You're going to answer some questions for us."
"Or else." Silkmouse finished, ominously.
"Or else what?" He was brave enough to ask.
"Trust me." Silkmouse told him menacingly. "You do not want to know."
"Alright! Alright! I'll talk!" He gave in.
"Okay. My first question is; why are you so mean to Hiccup?"Silkmouse asked him, expectantly.
Snotlout looked a little surprised "Uh, well…"
"That's not an answer." Mary stated dangerously.
"Well, I guess it's because I'm a little jealous of him. I mean, he gets to be chief when he grows up, Astrid is crazy about him, and he rides a Night Fury!" Snotlout said in a rush of words, afraid of being pummeled again.
Silkmouse blinked "Wow. I never actually thought about that before."
"But it's still no excuse to be a jerk to him." Mary Penelope told Snotlout matter-of-factly.
"Still, it's not fair!" He whined. Penelope, just shook her head and Silkmouse kicked him in the groin. As he gasped with pain, Mary asked the next question.
"Do you have a thing for Astrid, or do you like every girl that walks by?"
"Well not every girl. Only the hotties." This time, the girls were too disgusted with the Viking to do anything.
"Well, what about Ruffnut? Do you like her?" Silkmouse asked him.
"Ruff? She's cute, I guess, but a little crazy..."
"Do you see her as a future girlfriend? Or a possible wife?" Mary asked, almost hopeful, wanting to have something to count on.
"Um, not really. I mean, it might be nice to go on a date and all that, but personally Fishlegs can have her. She likes him better, anyways."
"Well that's great!" Silkmouse cheered.
"I guess..." Snolout said.
"Anyway, we gotta go. Catch ya later." The two then turned around and walked away. Snotlout got up and stared at them. "Well," He murmured, staring at the two's butts. "That was weird." He scratched his head and then shrugged. "Girls." He muttered darkly.
Wow, I can't believe we got through that, eh Silkmouse?
It was kinda fun to beat on him, but maybe we should still cut him some slack. What do you readers think?
Well, at least we did this early, right?
Yeah, that way we could post is ASAP. No need to thank us.
Well, that's it for today folks. Be sure to review and PM, and send in any questions you want us to ask. Next week we do the twins, but it's up to you. Both at once, or just one at a time? And if so, which one?
Well Mary, I think we should do them at the same time. It would be interesting to see what they would fight about while we were there.
Have a nice week folks!
And (as my art teacher would say, in a sort of good way) Don't get arrested! :-)
Penelope, over and out!
