Summary: Walter Works High School is a place where shifters of all races and secondary genders learn together. It's located right at the borders of two very small towns and due to their size, the small towns share the high school. Hiccup, a young alpha dragon-shifter, is the son of the Alpha of Berk, one of the two towns. He's well respected and well-liked by others. Everyone expects Hiccup to one day be mated to Burgess' heir Merida, the omega bear-shifter. Both teens have been fighting this tooth and nail for years now, being good friends but nothing more.

One day, Jack Overland moves to Burgess and the gorgeous omega instantly catches the interest of Hiccup. The problem is that Jack is from a part of the world where omegas are seen as the lowest and most worthless of shifters, so he has no idea how to handle his new surroundings – a community of mixed racial shifters that live peacefully and see omegas as precious.

The Shifters of Walter Works High

The Dragon and the Arctic Fox

Chapter 7: Legend of the Seven Seas

Jack was excited about this weekend. Moana, Merida, Hiccup, Rapunzel and Flynn were going on a little cruise-adventure – they sometimes did that, driving out with Moana's ship to a neighboring lonely island and exploring – and they had invited him to go along. At first, he had not been the biggest fan of that idea, because he still wasn't so sure about where he stood with them, but Jamie had been nudging him into the direction, telling him that he should go.

"Why are you so nervous about this, Jack?", asked Jamie amused, tilting his head.

They were at Jamie's place, watching movies with Jamie's other friends. Pippa and Monty were throwing popcorn at each other while Caleb and Claude shoved each other. Cupcake was simply not impressed by them all and she was hogging the chocolate-bars. Jamie and Jack sat on a sofa together, the alpha whispering in a soft voice. Jack bit his lips.

"It's...", started Jack unsure, frowning.

"You've been trying so hard to keep your distance from everyone when you first moved here, even when we were trying to befriend you and you still push us away", murmured Jamie, a frown slowly finding its way onto his face as he looked at Jack. "Why? You're great to hang out with."

Jack bit his lip even harder, staring at his knees. "I used to be really popular before I presented. I had a lot of friends, everyone was as nice to me as you guys were when I first came. But then I presented and... it was like I turned invisible. It's easy being alone if it's your choice, but being abandoned, having others turn their backs on you? It's... terrifying, Jamie. I... I want friends, real friends, but I can't help but be afraid to be abandoned again... That all this friendliness is only due to me being the new kid and the new attraction of the island and everyone is curious, but once they get to know me, I get uninteresting again and... and you guys will turn your backs on me too and I'll be invisible and alone again and I don't know if I can. Do you know how hard that kind of isolation is for... for an omega? Without pack-mates? I don't... I can't do that again, Jamie."

"You won't have to, Jack", assured Jamie with a worried frown, wrapping an arm around Jack's waist and pulling him close into a hug. "I don't know why your old pack would do something like that, but... we're not like that. We'll... We'll not just turn our backs on you."

Jack took a slightly shaky breath as he melted into Jamie's hug. He was still so touch-starved because be rarely allowed himself physical contact with his new pack and friends; not in the way he should, as an omega. Pack-cuddles and physical comfort were important things for an omega. It was all the more reason why it had hurt so much back when he had turned invisible to those he used to seek out. He really didn't think he could handle this kind of rejection again.

He didn't want to get attached to those people, those potential new friends. Because if he got attached, then the abandonment would only hurt more. But it wasn't in his nature to be alone – not just because he was an omega, but also because that was who he was, he had always been the kind of person who had people flocking around him and who sought out to be with others. And so he did, here. By following Jamie, by spending time with Hiro, by hanging out with Rapunzel and Flynn and all the others. He reached out for all of those people because he had hope. He still had hope and longing for friendship and he just couldn't give up on the possibility of having friends, even though deep down he should know that the risk of rejection was too big. Still, it was a risk he was taking once again. He just prayed that Jamie's words would prove to be true.

"You boys done with the emotional striptease? Wanna help decide on the next movie?", asked Pippa with a slightly amused smile. "Monty wants to watch The Hobbit."

"No. Nerd. No", groaned Caleb frustrated. "I don't have that kind of time and even if I had, I wouldn't invest it in those movies. Can't we watch the latest Star Wars movie?"

"I've never seen a Star Wars movie in my life and I have no intentions of changing that", stated Cupcake firmly, glaring at the boys. "We're watching The Last Unicorn."

"Oh, no. Woman", warned Claude with a glare. "We are not watching your animated unicorn movie again, Cupcake. No. Anything but that. Pippa, input."

"I'm keeping out of this one", chimed Pippa innocently, getting elbowed by the twins. "But why don't we let Jack decide, since he's new to our movie-nights, mh guys?"

Everyone turned to look at Jack with curious eyes and he wasn't really sure how to handle that. It was weird for him to be the center of attention and when everyone expected him to make a decision. He turned slightly and searched Jamie's eyes, hoping for the alpha to make a decision.

"No, I like the idea of you making the decision, Jack", grinned Jamie. "What do you want?"

"Can we watch Ocean's 11?", asked Jack just a little helplessly.

No one protested. After all, they had agreed to let him decide. While Pippa went to put the DVD in, Jamie pulled Jack a little closer, nosing his scent-glands. Jack shuddered. It's been a while since he last had an alpha scent him, even just in a friendly pack-way. He ducked his head.

"One day, you gotta tell me why they abandoned you", whispered Jamie lowly. "Because there's gotta be more to this story than just you being an omega. I can't believe that."

"Oh! Do you... uh, would you want to have a puppy-pile, Jack?", asked Monty suddenly.

"Uhm, what?", asked Jack surprised, looking at the short blonde.

Monty smiled and pushed his glasses up, his nose wiggling. "I might be a beta and a bunny – so it's not really a puppy-pile – but I know that omegas draw strength from physical contact to pack."

"That's a great idea", agreed Pippa, who herself was a wolf-shifter after all.

They grabbed the blankets and pillows and spread them out on the ground between the couches. Jack found himself placed in the middle of the pile, with the twins on one side of him, Cupcake and Monty on the other side, Pippa and Jamie behind him and being used as pillows. Jack felt the tension melt off him as he got to enjoy the physical reassurance of the pack. His pack?

/break\

It was the next morning, before sunrise, that Jack got out of bed. Somehow, he felt more energetic than yesterday, more motivated thanks to Jamie's encouragement. The pack-cuddles had also helped him a lot. It boosted his confidence and made him feel physically and mentally stronger, which was really not that surprising because omegas thrived from that kind of contact.

"Morning, Jack", chimed Mary happily as Jack entered the kitchen. "Here."

Jack laughed softly as he took the paper-bag and opened it to see that yes, Mary's famous PB & J sandwiches. "You're the best little sister on the planet. Thanks."

"No problem", grinned Mary, grabbing a paper-bag for himself. "Besides, I had to make lunch for myself too because we're going into the forest today to explore."

"I'll see you tomorrow when we get back. Be safe, okay?", smiled Jack, kissing the top of her head.

"Always. You too, big brother", replied Mary with a smile of her own. "Have fu—un!"

Hiccup felt like hurling. Toothless laughed and patted him on the shoulder. The two of them were standing at the docks, Hiccup holding his backpack as though his life depended on it.

"You'll be fine, Hics", signed Toothless reassuringly. "If I wouldn't have to work on Saturdays, I'd totally be with you to hold your hand through this horrible ordeal."

Hiccup groaned and glared at his best friend. He was just really bad at handling Jack and the fact that Jack would be there with them this time was making him so incredibly nervous. He had just never really felt that way about an omega, so far all omegas he knew, they were just part of the pack. Jack was different, Jack felt like so much more. Hiccup couldn't really explain it and maybe that was part of the problem. He didn't really understand it, so he didn't know how to handle it.

"If you're done dillydallying you could help us", called Moana out loudly.

"Aye, aye, captain!", called Hiccup out, grinning.

He relaxed a little as he slipped into something familiar. Toothless smiled at him before he returned to town for work. Hiccup all the while started helping Moana and Rapunzel get the ship ready while they waited for the others. This was something that he was familiar with.

"Oh, I'm so excited that Jack said yes!", exclaimed Rapunzel as she swung over the deck.

"Stop using your hair as a rope to swing around my ship, squirrel-girl!", called Moana out.

"Ne—ever gonna happen, Mo", chuckled Hiccup with a grin.

Flynn was the next one to arrive, closely followed by Merida. Slowly, Hiccup grew a little anxious as they waited for Jack. But then the white mop of hair emerged in the distance and Hiccup smiled.

"Hey, guys", greeted Jack as he went aboard the Heart of Te Fiti.

"Jack", greeted Moana with a grin. "Go and let the others show you around. I'll get us started."

Jack nodded and went for Rapunzel, who gladly and enthusiastically showed him around the small ship. There wasn't much to it. Below deck, everything was filled out with blankets and pillows for comfort and it might just fit six people but it'd be a very tight fit.

"Not a lot to look at", grinned Jack amused as he dumped his backpack below deck.

"She owns her own boat, so she really can't complain about the size", chuckled Merida.

She was sitting in a corner above deck, leaning against Hiccup. Jack frowned thoughtfully as he took that picture in. The two of them were supposedly a thing. But Jack saw more tenderness between Jamie and Hiro than he saw between Hiccup and Merida. Maybe this weekend would be a great way to do a little detective work on that end.

"Okay, so, what do we do?", asked Jack curiously as he sat down next to Flynn.

"Mh?", grunted Merida confused, looking up from the arrow she was sharpening.

"We're going to just spend today and half of tomorrow on the island. Exploring, cooking our own food, enjoying the beach, in the cases of me and Punzel, we're also drawing", replied Hiccup. "We're exploring the islands for the local dragons, you see. There aren't many... regular dragons left and we on Dragon's Edge have the largest dragon-research institute. So we regularly scout the wildlife on the surrounding islands to keep track on how they do."

"Research. Huh", nodded Jack thoughtfully.

Sitting together and talking was fun for about an hour, but then traveling on the boat became slightly boring. Jack sat with his legs drawn up, arms around them. Rapunzel and Flynn were busy whispering to each other and trading gentle kisses. They were really cute together. Hiccup and Merida were mostly quiet, Hiccup had started reading a book and Merida was still sharpening her arrows, both leaning against each other's sides. Jack frowned to himself and turned to instead watch Moana. She was a fierce force to be reckoned with. The way she stood there, strong and tall, her eyes sharp and set on the horizon as she navigated them through the ocean. She really was an impressive alpha. Gorgeous too. It surprised Jack a little that she didn't have a boyfriend or girlfriend of any kind. Though then again, female alphas did have it hard in this society.

"Hey", grinned Jack as he came up behind Moana and stood next to her.

"Yeah?", grunted Moana curiously, turning to look at him.

"Dunno. Just thought you'd be a bit bored up here on your own", shrugged Jack.

"That's sweet of you", grinned Moana fondly. "So, you liking it on Dragon's Edge?"

"Mh. I guess", sighed Jack thoughtfully. "It's a very... overwhelming place, really."

"But it got something for everyone", offered Moana. "The snow, the beach, the high mountains, the deep forests. I really came to love this island when I moved here, you know."

"Really?", asked Jack curiously. "I mean, you're from a tropic island, right?"

"Yep", nodded Moana. "And it was hard, at first. The harsh winds and cold, white winters. But the summer are hot and the beach is amazing. I couldn't do without it. I need the ocean."

"Need?", laughed Jack amused, relaxing a little.

"Mh, it was non-negotiable for the Waialikis to move to an island or harbor town", confirmed Hiccup casually as their other friends looked up at them, watching Moana and Jack.

"But your shift-form is a bird of paradise. You'd be fine in the rain forest too?", asked Jack.

"Not entirely", chuckled Moana and turned to look at him.

She raised her hand and the ocean around them rose with it. Jack watched with wide eyes as the waves before them parted and rose three meter high, his heart nearly stopping in surprise. Jack backed off from it as it seemed to come closer, like it had a life of its own.

"Y—You...", whispered Jack, voice breaking off.

"I dunno if you heard of it before, where you come from, but it's called an elemental. Some alphas and omegas have certain magical abilities", explained Moana gently. "I control water, more specifically the ocean. Fresh water too, but I do better with salt-water."

"B—But...", stammered Jack, staring at Moana wide-eyed.

"It's old magic", explained Flynn casually. "There's a whole lot of legends around where it comes from, but it's so old no one knows for sure. Not even our eggheads."

Hiccup glared at Flynn for that before turning toward Jack with a gentle expression. "The theory is that, back in the beginning, all shifters had elemental magic. It was in their blood. That's why most of us dragons can spit fire, actually. Because most of us still have our link to our magic. Why else would giant lizards spit fire, after all? The real dragons, they don't have fire. It's never been seen in nature before, meaning fire is a shifter-exclusive kind of magic."

"So... So there are... are others with such... powers?", asked Jack, voice wavering a little.

"Oh! I! Me!", exclaimed Rapunzel with a bright smile.

"...Seriously?", asked Jack, eyebrows knitting at that.

"Light magic, with healing properties. Though... I'm not very good at controlling it", admitted Rapunzel and ducked her head. "Mother taught me to control it with a song. When I focus on that, I can actually channel it. But on its own, I kind of... can't."

"Mister Sanderson, he has control over Earth, though...", started Merida before she frowned. "I mean, I've never seen him move more than sand, but the things he does with sand-"

"Beautiful and artistic!", exclaimed Rapunzel. "You should see him! He once formed a giant long-necked dinosaur and made it walk along the beach. It was so cool. You'd love it."

"I have the theory that Hiro has powers too", added Hiccup gently, gaining the surprised attention of everyone. "I'm unsure though, but the way he handles technology is... more than just impressive. I think he might have control over it, in a way."

"It's rare, but not that rare", summed Flynn up with a grin.

"It's okay", smiled Rapunzel, patting Jack's shoulder. "It's rare, depending on where you're from. If your hometown didn't really have anyone with powers, you might have never even heard of it."

Jack nodded slowly and settled back down again, watching Moana and Rapunzel in particular.

/break\

A displeased look laid on Moana's face as she watched Hiccup and Merida, cuddled up at the fire-place just like Rapunzel and Flynn. It was stupid. From the day she had moved here, she had known Hiccup and Merida were just meant to be. She should have never fallen for Merida to begin with, but Merida was the fiercest, strongest, most adventurous omega Moana had ever met and maybe the only person Moana had ever met who sought freedom just as much as she did. Merida was perfect to Moana, but it was clear that fate had different plans for Merida and they didn't include Moana. Not in the way Moana wanted to be included. If only there would be a simple way to settle for friendship and to just stop being in love with someone, but that switch didn't exist.

Her eyes wandered, just to find Jack. The male omega sat folded in on himself a bit farther away from them. He had been subdued all day, while Flynn and Rapunzel ran through the woods, Moana took a swim, Merida went to hunt their dinner and Hiccup, as always, went to study dragons. He had joined Flynn and Rapunzel on their run for a while, but he was distracted. Later on, he had joined Rapunzel and Hiccup as they drew the dragons of the island, but again he hadn't been really focused. Something was clearly on the omega's mind, but he didn't seem ready to share it.

"Hey", whispered Moana gently as she got up and walked over to Jack. "You not cold?"

Jack blinked slowly and looked first up at her and then down at his bare feet. "Oh. Heh. No, not really. I like being barefoot and I'm pretty... used to the cold."

He was fidgeting with the sleeves of his dark-blue hoodie. Moana tilted her head and sat down close next to him so their shoulders were brushing. Both faced their four friends, the light of the bonfire setting a soft and gentle mood, the stars and moon above them. It was nice, nearly romantic.

"It sucks to be among couples", whispered Moana lowly, nudging Jack a little.

"Mh. I don't mind most couples, though Flynn and Rapunzel are basically disgustingly cute", laughed Jack with a grin. "Merida and Hiccup aren't very heavy on the PDA though..."

"Yeah, that's just not them", shrugged Moana thoughtfully, wrapping an arm around Jack.

Jack leaned into the female alpha after all, enjoying the warmth and comfort of his pack-mate. The two slowly relaxed against each other, unaware of the burning glares Merida and Hiccup sent them. Merida gritted her teeth as she dug her chin into Hiccup's shoulder while watching the male omega cozy up to Moana like that. Why had stupid Flynn had to joke about Moana and Jack completing the set when Jack had first decided to hang out with them? Ever since, Merida couldn't really shake off this feeling of threat. The natural instinct of seeing Jack as someone intruding on her territory.

/break\

The six of them all squeezed into Moana's boat after their little bonfire and dinner. It was a very tight fit, but Rapunzel was more than happy to curl together on Flynn's chest, Moana sleeping with her face buried in Rapunzel's hair and Flynn's arm half over her head. Merida had her head resting on Moana's stomach, having gravitated closer to the alpha in her sleep. Her feet were stretched out on Hiccup's stomach, which was a bit bothersome but Hiccup tried to ignore it (as long as she didn't actually kick him). The thing that kept Hiccup awake was the ice-cold omega snuggled up to his side. Jack's nose was pressed against Hiccup's neck, his legs thrown over Hiccup's as the white-haired boy was cuddled up to him as close as physically possible.

This wasn't a rare thing for them normally. Sleeping in the boat always resulted in pack-cuddles. But the Jack was new. And Jack that close to him was very confusing for the poor alpha. Especially after he had watched Moana and Jack cuddle at the bonfire earlier. Which was okay, because they were pack and they were both unmated and Hiccup had absolutely no right to be jealous.

He hated that he was jealous. First with Jamie, now with Moana. This was ridiculous. Never had an omega smelt better or looked better of felt better than Jack did. He just felt right, the way he was laying next to Hiccup like this. Talking to Jack – now that Hiccup had finally managed the art of talking to Jack – was really nice. He liked the omega, he liked spending time with the omega in a way he never had before. This was it, this was the thing he had never understood. The thing that his parents had wanted for him to feel about Merida. He hadn't understood it back then, he just thought it was something that might either happen on its own if he gave himself and Merida time, or it would never happen and was just some fairy tale thing adults made up. But now, with Jack, he actually felt the way others described it. And he didn't know how to handle that.

Author's note: Next chapter will be Christmas-themed! And it will feature a lot of HiJack interactions! Also Tadashi gets to play wise big brother ;D
