Ch-16 Another day Inside the Cell…
The next morning, we were awoken by the screeches of birds. 'Why did you have to get me up so early mom?' said Phillip as he started to get up. We stared at him as if he had gone mad. 'You think that your mother waked you?' asked Anna. 'I thought so,' he replied. We all laughed heartily.
After everyone was up (I tried to wake Astrid who in turn gave me a kick in the face. I then woke up Hiccup and told him to wake Astrid up and as a result, he was kicked in the face too), we started chatting and getting to know each other. 'What do you think is the reason the birds are screeching so much?' I asked Hiccup. Before he could answer, suddenly, one of the Outcasts come with a plate in his hand and says 'Eat up. You have a big day tomorrow, performing before the whole tribe of Outcasts! And by the way, if you're thinking why the birds are screeching so much, we are hunting birds because we can't eat you before two days!' and went off.
'Great, just what we wanted!' said Snotlout. I saw what was on the plate. It was nothing like anything I used to eat on Berk which is only fish. I refused to eat anything. After that, Alvin comes and tells us 'So, enjoying your days on Outcast Island? BY the way, we're not as bad as you think. Your eating day has been cancelled by one day so tomorrow you don't have to perform before us!' and goes. Then, Ronald says 'I have something to say,' 'Fire away,' I replied. 'Well, when we came to the "Secret place", we went through a room in which an Outcast went and disappeared!'
'Ok,' said Hiccup. Now, I understood why Anna had written Ronald had "lost his mind" in the letter. We exchanged looks. 'Hey guys! You're all looking at me as if you-have-gone-mad! I'm telling you! I know what I saw!' replied Ronald.
I saw everyone was desperate to change the subject. So, I did it. 'So, what about the bruises you and Donald had got which was mentioned in the letter I got?' I said Thomas. He showed me his back where he had quite a bruise. 'What about you?' I asked Donald. He showed his hand and I saw his bruise was in the shape of a snake. 'Those are bruises, alright,' said Snotlout.
Tuffnut and Ruffnut were very disappointed to see that Ronald who was so much like them had lost his mind! They were sleeping all night thinking what mischievous things they could do with another person in their side! Snotlout was very impressed by Thomas because he was as tough as Snotlout was. Astrid was very impressed by Anna who had the same personality as Astrid. Fishlegs was very impressed by Alice because of her brains. They chatted and chatted with each other and that day also ended. Now, we or I had to think of something, fast! Only one more day left until we are eaten alive!
