Chapter 4- What are you Hiding
Canine's POV
I stare down as the man missing his arm and leg helps me with my cuts. "What do ya think you were doing in the forest by yourself?" He asks me. I shrug, keeping my eyes focused on the ground. Out of the corner of my eye I see the other trainers apppoaching. I slightly turn my head and look at them. Gobber follows my gaze and smiles. "Ya found him" he says walking over to Hiccup. "Are ya ok?" he asks Hiccup. "He just has a little scratch" Ceceus says. Hiccup holds up his left hand to reveal a tiny scratch in the palm of his hand. Gobber examens it and nods. "It'll be fine" he says returning to me.
Ceceus runs over to me, "are you ok?" she asks. I nod my head and flick my bangs over my right eye. Cece turns to Gobber, "can I talk to alone for a sec?" she asks. "Of course lass" he says walking over to the trainers.
Cece makes sure she's gone then turns to me, "I led them away from the tracks" she says. "Thanks Ceceus" I say still looking down. Cece smiles, "just doing my duty as a friend" she says. I smile a little at her repeating my comment. Hiccup walks over to us.
"Is she ok Cece?" He asks her. Ceceus nods, Hiccup walks up to me but keeps his distance. "Where were you?" he asks me. I shrug my shoulders. He tries to to step closer. I growl causing him to step back. Cece gives me a stern look, "be nice or I'll call Ceaser Millan." I stop growling. Hiccup looks at Cece, "whose Ceaser Mil-" he starts. "NOBODY" Ceceus blurts out, putting on a huge cheesy smile. I smirk, "so much for not being suspicious" I say. "Your one to talk Canine" she says back. I nod my head, agreeing with her.
Hiccup laughs but stops when he looks at my right leg. "What?" I ask him sterenly. "N-nothing" he says, slowly walking backwards. "I better get back to the other trainers" he says. Then Hiccup turns and ran towards the woods. I growl and try to stand but I fall. Cece helps me up, "don't worry, I got this. Then she turns around running after him.
Hiccup's POV
I run towards the forest, breathing heavily. 'How' I think to myself as I run, 'this can't be possible.' I reach the edge of the woods and stop. I didn't want to go back into the dark forest, but I had to, I had to know. I start to step forwards, but pull back quickly to avoid an orange cat. It purrs and rubs against my leg. I smile, crouch down and pet it. It purrs and rubs my hand with its head. I laugh and pick it up. I look at it and turn to walk towards the village. "I feel like I'm forgetting something" I say. The cat puts its head on my chest and I smile walking back to the Great Hall.
Canine's POV
Gobber puts a cloth around my leg and hands me some wooden crutches. "You'll have to wear this for about three days until your leg can move again" he says. I look at the crutches and cast, "how do I...?" I ask myself. I tried balancing on the crutches with my hands. I fall on my face. "That it, I've had it" I say into the ground. I sit on the ground and and put the crutches at my feet. I try to stand up but again I fall on the ground.
I look up to see Hiccup holding an orange cat, "Ceceus?" I ask dizzily. Hiccup laughs, "wow you must really be out of it, I'm obviously Hiccup and this is a cat" he says holding up the cat. As he held it up, it jumps out of his arms and runs away. Hiccup shrugs. I try to stand to get away from him, but collapse.. again. Hiccup smiles and grabs the crutches, then he helps me up.
I growled at him, but I knew Ceceus would kill me if I attacked him. Hiccup puts the crutches under my arms. "The rest will come to you, I know what it's like having to get used to a new leg" he says. I look down at his appendage, I smile slightly at him. "Thanks" I say. He returns the smile, "no problem" he says walking away. Cece walks next to me mockingly smiling at me. "What?" I ask. "You like him don't ya?" she asks. I growl, "no! But I'd rather like him than Goldilocks, god of Thunder" I say teasingly, I know she had a crush on the god. Ceceus stares at me angrily, reached in her bag and pulled out a tennis ball.
My eyes narrow, "you wouldn't dare" I say. She smirks and throws it. I watch it bounce and roll to a stop. I break and run for it on all fours barking. I grab the ball with my mouth and bring it back to her. I spit it out and look up at her smiling. "Bow-wow" I say and we laugh.
"What the-" we hear someone say. We look to see the twins staring at us. "It's a... um... disorder?" I say. Ruff and Tuff stare at us. "Ya" Cece says, "she had a dad who..."
"Went crazy... because he played..."
"Poker"
"And lost to a..."
"Yorkie-poo"
"Named London"I finish smiling cheesly. Ruffnut nods, "that makes sense" she says. Tuff nods, for once agreeing his sister and they walk away. We stare at them in disbelief. "Wow" Ceceus says, "they are really dumb." I nod grabbing the crutches and stand up. We stand in silence till Cece raises an eyebrow, "Goldilocks?" she asks. I laugh, "late reaction much?"
