Chapter 6: Hiccup's big chance
One month Later.
Had it been that long? Ever since Anna had insulted Kristoff, her own childhood friend, things haven't been the same. This was explained to Jack when He and Elsa we're on their usual jogging routine. Elsa told Jack that sees been more distant from her and it was starting to scare her.
"I just don't know what to do anymore." She said with a sad tone. "She doesn't talk me and doesn't even want to look at me." She tried to hold back the tears.
"Have you tried talking to her?" Jack asked.
"I tried many times. But she still gives me the angry look and never talks to me." She said. Jack was really worried about Elsa now. His expression changed to frustration. Hans was up to something. But what?
It was just another day at the gym. Jack sat on a stool watching Kristoff. He was training as usual. He still managed to keep his punches at his usual pace but had a face of defeat. Jack knew that look anywhere. Kristoff hasn't been the same since Anna insulted him. Now Anna does the same thing he does to Elsa. Kristoff still managed to win a lot boxing matches over the past month but no matter how much he won he could never smile his usual smile.
After he was done he left without saying a word. Jack wanted to help but he just didn't know how. North was worried too.
Astrid and Snotlout were up next. Astrid through the punches and Snoutlout uses the mitts, as usual. For the next few minutes Astrid through a series of punches and Snotlout tried to impress her but to no avail. Of course Astrid was too focused on her training. Snotlout, trying to flirt with her, got hit in the face very hard and fell over unconscious. In a comedic moment, everyone was in awe and even tried to hold their laughter.
"Oh for crap sake, Snotlout!" Gobber scolded him. "Spend more time training at less time talking!"
"Get him some ice cold water." North instructed. Hiccup quickly got a bucket and filled it with icy cold water. He ran over and threw the bucket on Snotlout who was still unconscious. Still Snotlout was talking, only in his sleep. It was stupid.
"Well that's just great!" Gobber face palmed. "We need a mitt person to help Astrid train." He looked around. "Any volunteers?"
Astrid then turned to Hiccup. "You." She pointed to him. "Hiccup."
He stammered. "Uh, yes!"
"Get the gear on. You'll be my new sparing partner."
Hiccup eyes widened. He was going to spar with Astrid. "Uh, um…" He staggered. "Uh ok." He was nervous. But he did what he was told. He got the protective gear on and was ready to go.
"Ok now. Since this is your first time I'll go easy on you." Astrid said reassuringly.
"I think not Astrid." Gobber said. "We're pretty much behind schedule. Plus if you go soft you might get rusty."
"Coach, I can't. He's still-"
"It's fine!" Hiccupe interrupted her. "I'm ready." Astrid was surprised. Hiccup definitely looked determined.
"Five bucks says Hiccup will break." Tuff whispered to his sister.
"Ha, you're on." Ruff giggled.
"Ok, ok come on let's get this show on the road!" Gobber ordered. Astrid took her position. Hiccup took his. Astrid clenched her fist and threw it at the mitt Hiccup is holding. A large loud bang erupted room. A moment of silence.
"I'm sorry, buddy." She frowned. She felt bad going all out on Hiccup. She started to think that maybe she shouldn't have picked him.
"Nice one." Hiccup smiled. Astrid was shocked. Everyone was shocked. Hiccup stood his ground and took the punch. "Throw another one." He smiled.
Astrid was impressed. She smiled widely while having a determined look on her face. "Ok then, let's continue." She said taking a stance. Hiccup the same. Astrid threw a series of punches and jabs. Hiccup stood there just taking them. Tuff and Ruff stood there dumb founded with jaws dropped. Jack just smiled wildly. Astrid and Hiccup looked like they were having fun.
The day was over. Gobber and his team packed up and headed out. Astrid stayed behind looking at Hiccup packing up the gear. She smiled. She had never seen such stamina in a guy who looked like he didn't look like he had a lot of muscle. She walked over to him.
"Hey." She got his attention. "Nice work today, Hiccup." She smiled.
Hiccup blushed. "Uh y-yeah." He stammered. "I really enjoyed it." He smiled shyly.
"So I was wondering." She began. "If you weren't busy tomorrow maybe you could accompany me during my exercises?"
Hiccup was surprised. "Well um… sure I don't mind." He smiled.
Astrid smiled too. "Good. I need the company anyway."
Hiccup suddenly collapsed. Jack rushed in the nick of time to catch him. "Whoa! I got you buddy." He set Hiccup down on the chair. Jack noticed something about Hiccup he was sleeping. "Poor guy. He must be worn out." Jack giggled.
Astrid smiled again. "Yeah. He truly is amazing." She leaned towards Hiccup. She put her hand on Hiccups cheek. She leaned over him and did what no one would expect her to do. She kisses him on the cheek. "I'll see you tomorrow." She walks out the door.
That night Jack sat on the bench at the little park as usual. Thinking randomly. He did however thought about Hiccup and Astrid. He chuckled.
"Those two seem to be great for each other." He smiled.
"Who seem great for each other?" Said a familiar female voice. Jack turned around a saw Elsa standing there confused.
"Oh, Elsa." Jack said. "How are you?" Elsa just sighed. "Still the same, huh?"
"Is it that obvious?" She walked over to Jack and sat next to him. "I feel like I don't even know my own sister." Jack felt bad for her. "By the way you said 'those two seem to be great for each other.' You didn't mean my sister and Hans right?" She said with wide-eyed concern.
"Oh HELL no." Jack retorted. "I don't trust that guy even if he paid me." He then breathed. "I was actually talking about Hiccup and Astrid." Jack then explained to Elsa the experience he saw at the gum this afternoon. Elsa then laughed.
"I see." She giggled. "I agree those two look cute together." She then smiled at Jack. "Thank you Rick. I needed that."
"Sure thing." He smiled back. They stared at each other smiling. Then, simultaneously, snapped back into reality and blushed. "Oh! Uh. Um…S-sorry." He stammered.
"N-no… it's ok." She stammered too. They were both embarrassed.
"Wow that was awkward." They both said in unison. They then looked at each other in surprise. Then they both laughed.
"That was weird." Elsa giggled.
"Yeah it sure was." Jack chuckled. They really enjoyed each other company. Jack checked his watch. 9:10 pm. "It's getting late. Come on, how about I walk you home?"
"Sure. I'd like that." They both got up and walked home.
They reached the porch of Elsa's house. Jack opened the gate and let Elsa walk in first. "So." She began. "See you tomorrow?"
"You bet." He answered. They were just about to leave when suddenly they were drawn by the sound of crying coming in their direction. To their surprise it was Anna. She ran towards the house with tears running down her face. Elsa was shocked and worried. With out a second thought Anna ran up to her sister and hugged her tightly.
"ELSA!" She cried when she hugged. Tears trickling down her cheeks.
"Anna! What's the matter?" She said with worry. Anna looked up to her with eyes full of guilt, betrayal, shame, and heartbreak.
"I'm…I'm sorry. I am SO sorry." She buried her face in Elsa's shirt chest. Crying like a child. Elsa rubbed her hands on both Anna's back and head. Tenderly stroking. She turned to Jack.
"Rick, help me get her in the house." She pleaded. Jack nodded and helped Anna inside the house.
Anna sat on the living room couch. Elsa covered her with a blanket and let her lean against her shoulder. Jack came from the kitchen with some hot chocolate and cold water just for options to help Anna. Jack set the glasses down on the little table and sat on a chair. "Thanks Rick." Elsa smiled.
"Of course." He nodded. Elsa turned her attention to Anna.
"You ok." She softly said. "Tell me what happened so I can help you."
"I'm so sorry." She stammered in tears. "I should have listened to you."
"What are saying, Anna?" Elsa gave Anna a tender rub.
"I was at a club with Hans today. He left to use the Bathroom. He was gone for awhile. So I went to use the ladies room. Then…" She stammered. "In the hall I saw him kissing another girl!" She cried a river of tears.
Both Elsa and Jack were horrified by this news. Elsa was both sad and angry. Sad for her sisters feeling and angry at Hans for what he did. But one look at Jack's face changed her expression to worry. She saw Jack's face in full rage and hatred. She looked at his eyes and saw the hate, the rage, and look of a murderous intent. Jack's fists were clenching with fury. He had one thing on his mind. He would kill Hans Islesouth!
