Hiccup was still upstairs encoding a new atmospheric measuring algorithm program for his P.A.C. or Personal Aerodynamic Carrier, Hiccup is quite proud of his invention, he was the first to ever invent a fully functional 'jet pack', but unlike the jet packs in mainstream sci-fi references, his doesn't use thrusters, instead, Hiccup found a new solution just by looking at how a helicopter works when he was still 9 years old, he then invented a new airlift method called V.T.O.L.S. or Vertical Take Off Landing Sequence, with this process, the PAC can move in the air as fast as a racecar and hover like a helicopter, of course this quality wasn't the trait that got him a scholarship in SFITS, but the unique trait of the PAC that generates zero audible sound, basically, hiccup could wear the PAC and fly in an open room and he still won't make a sound, Hiccup new all the military application with such a silent, reliable, and stealthily arsenal and promised himself that he will only mass produce this as a new way of transporting people and upgrading aircraft engines.
Hiccup can hear that more and more people are entering the building and setting their experiments down stairs, he looked at the time and saw it was 7:50 pm, but he didn't felt tired at all, he was so motivated with perfecting his new invention that he didn't realized that he hasn't eaten anything yet, eventually, his stomach started growling.
"I guess it's about time I head downstairs" said Hiccup to himself, he grabbed his invention and his sling bag and went out of his work bench.
Hiccup observed many inventions from upstairs, from robotic arms doing intricate tasks, floating devices, and various remote controlled devices, Hiccup smiled at the sight, he sure was pretty lucky to get inside the academy, Hiccup scanned the large room for a vacant spot, he then saw one, just by the back, he then went down stairs to try his new PAC program.
"Oh hey you're here" said Go Go while replacing the wheels of her bike
"Yeah, just finding a place to put my things" said Hiccup while pointing at his bags.
"You can put your things just right beside Wasabi, I'm sure he won't mind" said Go Go while throwing another wheel away, Hiccup moved closely to the bike and observed it.
"Woah, this is pretty cool, electro-magnetic suspension!?" said Hiccup while touching the bike.
"Nah, not really" said Go Go smiling, obvious to Hiccup that she was flattered.
"So what do you specialize in?" asked Hiccup
"I specialize in industrial mechanical engineering, you?" said Go Go while grabbing another magnetic wheel and installing it to the bike.
"Aerodynamics engineering" said Hiccup.
"Woah, that's pretty cool, let me know if you need help going to space" teased Go Go, both of them laugh.
"Well, I need to set up now" said Hiccup
"Oh sure, HEY WASABI, YOU MIND HELPING HICCUP FIND A PLACE TO PUT HIS STUFF?" yelled Go Go
"WHAT?" yelled Wasabi.
"He said yes" said Go Go with a smile, Hiccup smiled and just rolled his eyes at her childish antics, he then proceeded to walk to Wasabi's table, he passed by Honey's area and Honey saw him.
"OH HICCUP YOU'RE HERE! HOW WONDERFUL!" yelled Honey, she clearly hasn't turned the volume down as Hiccup can still hear her pop music playing, she then took her earphones out and grabbed Hiccup by the arm and dragged him to the chemical table. Hiccup observed the setup but focused his attention to the blue-green beaker.
"Carbon Carbanite mixed with a dense Hydropyroxide? If my guess is correct, I say that you're trying to make a semi solid material using nothing but a mist, let me guess, it acts as a cushion?" said Hiccup.
"Oh My Gosh! How'd you know!? Nobody has ever figured that out just by looking at it!" said Honey clearly impressed.
"I can tell by its color, and, it's quite pretty " said Hiccup looking at the beaker in awe.
"Really!?" said Honey while blushing.
"Yeah, I mean, whenever I mixed those things up, I usually end up with a horrible color combination, you must be quite an artist" said Hiccup
"Well~, I do run my own online boutique, hehehe , I even made this outfit myself!" said Honey while twirling so Hiccup could see her whole dress.
"It looks lovely" said Hiccup.
"R-Really?" said Honey with a blush while twisting her hair
"Really" confirmed Hiccup with a smile, Hiccup observed her work space, he didn't find a single tool lying around.
"You specialize in chemical engineering don't you?" asked Hiccup.
"Of course! Alchemy is my life!" exclaimed Honey, both of them laughed.
"So what do you specialize in Hiccup?" asked Honey.
"Aeronautics engineering" said Hiccup.
"That is so cool! Sometimes I dream of flying, and then, I wake up sleeping on the floor" said Honey, both of them laugh again.
"I'm sure someone will catch you" said Hiccup, Honey blushed at this.
"Well, I need to set up now" said Hiccup while pointing at his bags.
"Oh, uhh, you can set up here!" said Honey gesturing to her work area, she then forgot that her place is already occupied, by her. Realizing that she just embarrassed herself, Hiccup denied the offer.
"Thanks, but Go Go said that Wasabi can help me find a vacant space" said Hiccup
"O-Oh, yes, of course! OHHH~ WASABI! CAN YOU HELP HICCUP FIND A VACANT SPACE PLEASE!? THANKIES~!" shouted Honey.
"I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" replied Wasabi.
"Well, I gotta go, bye" said Hiccup with a smile, she waved at Hiccup and went near her desk
"Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!" she lightly bumped her head in the desk as she felt humiliated for what she said.
Hiccup then saw Wasabi organizing his tools, Hiccup was about to approach Wasabi, Wasabi then pushed Hiccup away.
"Do not step on the line!" said Wasabi, Hiccup wondered why until he saw a ripple between the poles of Wasabi's invention, Hiccup gently moved Wasabi's hands away and cautiously went closer to the line.
"An electromagnetic disturbance in the air? Does your experiment involves something to do with plasma?" asked Hiccup
"Why yes, yes it does" said Wasabi, he then pressed a button and a green laser grid appeared between the poles.
"Woah! This is amazing!" exclaimed Hiccup
"You think so huh?" said Wasabi while throwing an apple at the center, the apple spilt into small thin pieces.
"How did you configure the frequency and light waves that fast!?" asked Hiccup in awe.
"It wasn't easy, but I finally found the correct frequency to split small objects" replied Wasabi
"You know, your invention can help a lot of people" said Hiccup
"Really?" said Wasabi, clearly shocked and surprised to hear about this.
"Well Yeah! There are so many medical applications this can be applied with, you can basically kill cancer cells using nano lasers!" exclaimed Hiccup
"Y-You think I can do that?" asked Wasabi
"I know you can" said Hiccup with a reassuring smile
"Wow, thanks" said Wasabi, a hint of joy and pride twinkled in his eyes.
"So what do you specialize in?" asked Hiccup
"Applied physics, and you?" asked Wasabi
"Aeronautics engineering" answered Hiccup
"You know, with both our skills combined, I'm sure we can make something that will change the world!" said Wasabi
"hehehe, I'm usually horrible when it comes to Applied Physics" said Hiccup while rubbing the back of his head.
"hahaha, I can help you, just find me and I'll teach you" offered a happy Wasabi
"I would very like that" said Hiccup
"Anyways, do you know of any available work spots I can use here?" asked Hiccup
"Sorry, but the only thing that's left is that tiny spot over there" said Wasabi while pointing at the open space table between his work area and Honey's work area
"That's good enough for me" said Hiccup
"Are you sure? I could adjust and divide my work space for you" offered Wasabi
"Thanks, but judging from your experiment, you're going to need a lot of space to make modifications" said Hiccup politely.
"So Hiccup, where is your experiment?" asked Wasabi
"Right here" Hiccup turned around so that Wasabi can see the backpack he's carrying
"Your experiment is inside that backpack?" asked Wasabi
"I guess you could say that" said Hiccup
Hiccup then put his 2 bags on top of the small metallic desk, he was about to setup his gear when he heard the voice of Fred yelling at a comic book, Hiccup became curious and walked to Fred's couch, Fred was currently arguing about the hero's action on the comic book while wearing a monster costume, Fred didn't notice that Hiccup was already in front of him until he let go of his comic book while screaming dramatically in vain.
"Sup Hiccup, I can't believe Captain Mercury just let the villain go!" argued Fred while throwing the comic to the ground, Hiccup picked this up and looked at the cover of the comic book.
"Is this the 1st edition to the winter season of the Adventures of Captain Mercury?" asked Hiccup
"Yeah, it's my favorite novel, but sadly, the captain has failed me" said Fred in a melodramatic tone
"Dude I love this series! The only reason the captain let the villain go was so that he can follow him back to his evil lair where his fiancé is trapped!" exclaimed Hiccup
"Woah! Talk about plot twist! I knew the captain wouldn't fail me! Haha!" said Fred happily, he got of his chair and gave Hiccup a big hug
"What was that for?" said Hiccup
"That was for helping me open my eyes that the captain will always be the captain!" replied Hiccup, Hiccup gave out a soft laugh and went back to his work area while Fred was now eagerly reading the next series.
Hiccup sit down on his work area, took his laptop out from his bag and set it up on the table, he then continued encoding his program.
A moment later, a 14 year old teenager with Asian features entered the lab and was almost hit by Go Go testing her experiment before she set it up again, she partially removed the magnetic wheel and threw it back at the bike again and went back to her desk to record her experiment's current speed, while writing her latest report, the teenager went over to her bike and examined it, clearly in awe about the usage of magnetism.
"Woah, electro-mag suspension?" said the teenager, clearly impressed
"Hey! Who are you?" asked Go Go while wearing her helmet
"Go Go, this is my brother, Hiro" said a handsome Asian-Caucasian young man with black hair, brown eyes, while wearing his signature cap
Go Go was more annoyed than impressed by this as Tadashi sometimes talk to them about Hiro's personal opinion about their school
"Welcome to the Nerd Lab" said an unimpressed Go Go, Hiro just awkwardly laugh, feeling a hint that she knew about his recent name calling of their school
"I've never seen electo-magnetic suspension on a bike before"
"Zero resistance, faster bike, but.. "Go Go then threw the wheel at the other stacks of magnetic wheels behind Hiro "…not fast enough… yet" she then walked away to grab another pair of magnetic wheels.
Hiro then took interest on another invention from Wasabi, he was about to touch the device when Wasabi intervened.
"Do not move! Behind the line please" urged Wasabi to Hiro
"Hey Wasabi, this is my brother Hiro" introduced Tadashi
"Hello Hiro, prepare to be amazed" said Wasabi, full of confidence, he then grabbed an apple and toss it to Hiro.
"Catch" said Wasabi, upon entering the 2 poles, the apple spilt into thin pieces, Hiro caught a piece and observed it, it was as thin as paper.
"Wow, laser induced plasma?" asked Hiro, Wasabi then explained the vague process of his invention before Go Go suddenly showed up and 'burrowed' his wrench, Wasabi then chased Go Go while lecturing her about following the rules. A blonde woman was seen rolling a giant ball into her work space.
"EXCUSE ME! COMING THROUGH!" Honey shouted right after she place the giant ball in her pedestal, she then saw Tadashi approaching her
"TADASHI!" Honey greeted, she then look at Tadashi's side and saw Hiro
"OH MY GOSH! YOU MUST BE HIRO! I'VE HEARD SO MUCH ABOUT YOU!" she yelled right after kissing Hiro on both cheeks, she then pulled her earphones away to demonstrate her work.
"Perfect Timing!" she grabbed Hiro's arm and dragged him to her chemical table, she then made various mixtures until she grabbed her finished product, she sprayed said product on the giant ball, at first, Hiro thought all it doe was to stick paint faster, but, she demonstrated a process known as chemical metal embrittlement.
Fred seems to take notice on the new visitor and approached Hiro, Hiro was startled to see a monster but quickly realized that it was merely a suit, Fred then introduced himself and how he is also a science enthusiast.
"I've been trying to get Honey to develop a formula that could turn me into a fire breathing lizard at will, but she said 'that's not science'" said Fred who is now surrounded by Wasabi, Honey, and Go Go.
"It's really not" said Honey
"Yeah, and I guess the shrink ray I asked Wasabi for isn't science either is it?" asked Fred
"Nope" said Wasabi
"Well then, I guess my only hope would be Hiccup, I bet he's more than happy to help me make the most awesome alien spaceship ever!" said Fred, the groups attention were now focused on Hiccup who is still encoding in his laptop, Hiccup caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that the group is looking at him and broke eye contact to make it less awkward, the entire group then walked by to Hiccups work station out of curiousity.
"Whacha workin' on?" said Go Go
"Oh, umm, just a program" replied Hiccup, now tensed that there are 6 people surrounding him.
"I've never seen you before here, are you new?" Tadashi asked.
"Uhh, yeah! I was just accepted by the board last afternoon, I'll start class this Monday" replied Hiccup
"Oh my gosh! I forgot to introduce you to Hiccup! Hiccup, this is Tadashi, Tadashi, this is Hiccup" said Honey while alternating her hand gesture to each of them, both Tadashi and Hiccup then shake hands
"That's a pretty complex set of algorithms you got there, computer engineer?" asked Tadashi
"Uhh, no, I'm actually an aerodynamics engineer" replied Hiccup
"So what are you working on?" asked Hiro
"This" said Hiccup while grabbing the PAC
"A backpack?" said Hiro in a deadpan voice
"It's no ordinary backpack, here I'll show you" said Hiccup strapping the bag on his back, the backpack let out 2 thin black tail wings that points at the floor, not a moment too soon, Hiccup was already flying, or, in their perspective, levitating in thin air
"Woah!" exclaimed the group, Hiccup then did a very intricate aerial acrobatic moves around the large room, everybody who is doing their experiments stopped and looked at the amazing performance Hiccup is showing to them, Hiccup did all the classic moves with a bit of complexity behind, for every loop, Hiccup would twirl himself in mad speed while avoiding obstacles in the lab, one thing that impressed the crowd more was when Hiccup was walking at the ceiling upside down, as if gravity just shifted into the ceiling, Hiccup then landed in the floor in a smooth, fluid motion.
"THAT WAS AMAZING!" exclaimed Hiro, clearly impressed and tempted to try the PAC on himself
"Dude! That was totally rad! That would make an awesome Halloween prank! Ever think about going as a ghost this Halloween?" said Fred
"Hiccup you're Amazing! I-I mean, that was amazing, hehehe" said Honey slightly blushing while playing with her hair
Go Go then went near Hiccup and playfully punched him in his right shoulder
"I guess I'm not the only one who likes it fast~" said Go Go, Hiccup could have sworn that her tone just shifted into a seductive one
"How did you do that! You were levitating! That is the quietest jetpack I have ever seen in my entire life!" said Wasabi who was quite impressed, "By the way, where's the thrusters?" asked Wasabi
"I don't use one, I'm going for an all green kind of style, makes less pollution, including sound pollution" answered Hiccup
"I've never seen a lift like that, jetpacks don't have that much balance when it comes to hovering in air, and you were literally walking in thin air in one of your stunts" said Tadashi
"I made a new engine so that my PAC can have that natural feeling of flight, it doesn't need fuel as all it does is let me surf or glide in the wind by using a circular wind tunnel module that allows me to shape the wind current" said Hiccup while unstrapping his PAC and setting it on the table
"Oh! Oh! Can I try it!? Please!?" said Hiro who is eager to fly just like Hiccup, what Hiro loved about Hiccup's PAC is that it stimulates an all-natural flight, plus, his mind is already imagining new aerial moves
"Nope, too dangerous, plus, I want to show you something" said Tadashi
"But Tadashi! Look at it! It's awesome, you can feel like a superhero!" whined Hiro
"Nope" said Tadashi
"Just a minute?" asked Hiro
"Nope" said Tadashi
"I guess somebody's jealous about whose work is more interesting" said Hiro
"Come on you baby, well, it was a pleasure meeting you Hiccup" said Tadashi leaving with a disappointed Hiro, everybody laughed at Hiro's antics and said their various farewell to the brothers, after a quick interesting chat on Hiccup's PAC, the group went back to their work.
