Previously on Chasing You,
At the Mount Dragon Nest, a hangout called Dragon Island where racers gathered together during their monthly gathering, things were busy as they races the area, meeting and betting with their friends.
Astrid Hofferson was there with her racing group the Deadly Nadders, minding their own business, where suddenly she heard a roar of an engine. Everything went silent as the roars continued. It was a distant away but the roars were loud. Minutes later, it died out.
Chapter 6
Rumors spread through the Dragon Island on the next monthly meeting at the hangout. The roars of the engine they heard last month was something new to the racers, which means a new racer was here. Rumors had said that the person who drove that kind of vehicle was a technical specialist or an ex-professional racer that decided to create his own car.
Astrid Hofferson was a person who doesn't believe in that rumors and she didn't jump into conclusion. But she was curious about that roars and she wanted to see what kind of vehicle it was. Also she wanted to challenge him.
Her Nissan 370Z not only modified on the outside but also also under the hood. With some help from the girls of the Deadly Nadders, her vehicle was the best at cornering. With some training from them, she also became a great driver.
"Hey, babe," she fought back a groan.
"What is it, Scotty?" she nearly snapped at Snotlout who smile innocently.
"Oh well, how about we have a race down the mountain. First one cross the finishing line gets on top," he wiggled his eyebrows.
"No thanks, Scotty," she looked away from her boyfriend. Truth to be told, she was only dating with Snotlout because of his reputation. It was a huge reputation that she cannot help herself but jumped in and enjoyed the status.
Before Snotlout could say a word, a familiar screech was heard.
"Night Fury!"
"Get away!"
Drifting into the view, a black Nissan Skyline R34 with green neon and green headlight came into their view with smokes following him and the smell of burning rubbers. He did a doughnut before he came to a rest, giving out green backfires. Hank stepped out from the car and adjusted his black coat. Suddenly, slowly with a sound like of a broken motor, coming from the entrance was another vehicle.
It was a black 1969 Chevrolet Stingray with green neon and green headlights similar like Night Fury's. The back wheels were larger than the front and the American rims were prefect with the vehicle. The exhausts on both side of the Stingray were shaking as it gave out smokes. What made the car looked funny was the hood. It looked like there was a large rectangular box on top of the hood.
Everyone laughed at the sound of the car since it sounded like a broken motor. Well, everyone except for Hank who had a smirk on his face. When the driver of the Stingray stepped out, people laughed even harder. A runt was wearing a tight unbutton black leather coat with a large red horned skull on his right shoulder, green tunic underneath, black tight leather pants and boots.
"Aww, a runt wants to join the race"
"I'm sure his toy car would go very fast"
"I'm so scared that he will beat me"
Astrid too laughed at Hiccup since she wasn't expecting him to be around. Sure, she knew that Hank AKA the Night Fury was his brother but a racer was not him. She even saw him trying to drive at one time and greatly failed at it.
"I challenge Scotty 'Snotlout' Jorgenson into a race!" that made the laughter quite down a bit, surprised by his challenge.
"Oh, you Useless want to challenge me, leader of the Monstrous Nightmares with my Dodge Viper GTS R 2000 with your… motorboat," they laughed even harder while the brothers' smirk widened.
"Yes," Hiccup answered simply.
"Oh, I'm so scared," Snotlout laughed. "How much are you willing to bet, $20?"
"$20 000," Snotlout's laughter died immediately at the prize but then a grin appeared on his face.
"I hope you prepare your money, Useless," he said as he entered his Viper and went to the starting line.
"I hope you prepare your money, Snotlout," replied Hiccup as he entered his Stingray and went to the side of the Viper.
"The rule is simple," shouted Hank. "First one to cross the finishing line wins a prize of $20 000!"
Still with that smug grin on his face, Snotlout played with the throttle making his vehicle roar loudly, drowning the shouts and jeers. Hiccup on the other hand had a relax smile on his face with his arm on the window. He doesn't even bothered by the power of the Viper gave out. After Snotlout done with his play, it was Hiccup's turn as the smile widened.
Smiling, Toothless approached the hood of the Stingray. When he removed the rectangular box from the hood, everyone except for the brothers, dropped their smile.
It was a large supercharger.
Pressing the throttle to the maximum, the engine transformed from a motorboat to its real form as the engine roared. The roars that made everyone paled.
It was the same roars like last month.
The roars drowned the silence into oblivion as the Stingray visibly shaken over the sheer power it gave out. The exhausts exchanged from giving out smokes into green backfires as they roared in excitement, ready for the race to start, ready to let the Viper to eat its dusts.
Astrid could've sworn that if she stared a bit longer, her eyes might pop out. Henry 'Hiccup' Haddock also known by many as Hiccup the Useless, was the main reason for the roars last month. Seeing something unexpected coming from him, sure that was something would happen. But something like this was not on her list.
Once the roars of the Stingray, everything went eerie quiet. There were no shouts of excitements or jeers. The sound of the engines from other cars sounded like nothing now when comparing to his. Everything froze after it died, disbelief plastered on their faces.
Toothless stood in between the two vehicles, raising his hands signaling for the two racers to be ready for the race. The Stingray shaken and roared and his excitement while the Viper stayed silent it too scared to even hiss.
If Hiccup's personality was like his cousin, for sure he would mock and insult Snotlout to not even reply a simple hiss. But since Hiccup was himself, he stayed quiet, patient and calm; ready to see if Snotlout was ready to back off or not.
Snotlout's trembling hands were gripping the steering wheel as a scowl appeared on his face with a visible hint of fear, signaling he was ready. His Viper roared and hissed in fright retaliation. Both the driver and vehicle was unsure if they were going to win. There was only one thing to prove that.
Still smiling, Toothless raised his hands high up in the air, before quickly whipped them down.
The Viper was fast but it was too slow to even to catch up with the Stingray. The start for the Stingray was so fast and so strong it managed to lift the front two tires of the ground for a brief second. Panic ran through his veins, Snotlout stumbled on his clutch making the Stingray grew smaller and smaller while still maintaining his loud roars.
Hiccup on the other hand had excitement overwhelmed him as the Stingray roared excitedly. He professionally drifted around every corner and turn while still maintaining speed. Snotlout was now didn't even exist in his rear view mirror or any mirrors in his car.
The excitements was still in his veins and the Stingray was still roared excitedly when they crossed the finishing line down the mountain until to the point where he wanted to race back to Dragon Island at that instant.
And so he did and met confused Snotlout some way from the finishing line. When Snotlout saw this, he knew that he had lost the race and his $20 000 flew towards his cousin. Embarrassed, he decided to run away from the race.
Even before the Stingray appeared at the Dragon Island, everyone knew that Hiccup had won by the sound of the excited roars of the Stingray as it parked beside the Black Skyline. Hiccup was light on his feet, a common thing happened to him after feeling the sheer speed, and high-five with his brother. All the while, everyone watched in silent as the only thing that made a sound was the growling of the Stingray that even drowned the screech of the Skyline.
"We should thank our teacher for the element of surprise," whispered Toothless to Hiccup. Truth to be told, the supercharger surprise was RJ's idea since he loved to surprise everyone. The reason they whispered was because they don't want anyone to know that there were two extra persons involved.
They don't have the heart to leave Yuki from the group since she always cheered them up with her playfulness.
"That was some race you got there, babe," a seductive feminine voice was heard behind the brothers. When they turned around, the whole Deadly Nadders approached them, swaying their hips. The brothers only rolled their eyes.
One thing that was famous about the Deadly Nadders, other than their cornering skills, was their way on controlling boys with their seductiveness. The Deadly Nadders used this to take advantage over other groups. Though, the trick was not affecting the brothers, since they were once the victims.
"What do you want, Annie?" Annie, the leader of the Deadly Nadder was a beauty that attracted every boy's eyes but not to Hiccup since his eyes were on the girl behind Annie.
Being with the Deadly Naddesr for as long as she could remember, Astrid enjoyed manipulating boys with her tricks so she was going to use this on Hiccup to extract any information out of him about his Stingray that growled dangerous behind the two brothers beside the screeching Skyline.
Both girls were on both of Hiccup's sides, seductively traced their fingers over his leather arms, trying their best to get anything from him. So far, their responds were a lot of eye-rolls and sarcasms which got the girls incredibly irritated, and amused Toothless who watched from the sideline, covering his mirth behind his hand over the girls' fail attempts.
"Look, I appreciate your fail attempts on trying those kinds of things on me, I really do," Toothless' laughter nearly gave out at that statement. "But I won't give you anything," Annie only pouted as she walked away but Astrid on the other hand was still trying, seriously bemused Hiccup. With a final eye-roll and a sigh, Hiccup walked towards his brother, away from her.
"Come on brother, let's get out of here," that somehow made Astrid angry. Nobody walked away from her, failing at her seduce or making her angry – though Hiccup just did all of the above – she just can't accept that. Losing her seducing façade, she raised her voice to the typical Astrid voice.
"You can't walk away from me, Hiccup!" she pointed her finger toward Hiccup who looked back with half-lidded eyes, not amused.
"No, I am not walking away from you," he stated, still not amused. "I am driving away from you in my Stingray with my brother in his Skyline," he added sarcastically. Sneering, she raised her voice again.
"I challenge you, Henry 'Hiccup' Haddock, to a race!" this made him surprise, though not at the challenge.
"Toothless, since when did she know my full name!?" he stared at his older brother who stared back.
"I have no idea. Maybe she just guessed?"
"Well, that's a lucky guess, I might say"
"Can you not hear me!?" shouted Astrid, interrupting the brothers. "I said I challenge you, Hiccup!" her receive was an eye-roll from both brothers.
"Please…" the younger said slowly.
"He won't even mind challenging all of you Deadly Nadders at the same time after giving a head start," added the older. The girls gapped in shock at that statement but instead of accepting the challenge, the brothers got onto their cars, making them roared and screeched loudly.
"Then why are you running away? Are you scared of the challenge?" said Astrid triumphantly as she crossed her arms.
"Actually, aren't you scared of losing your status?" the smile on her face dropped at that question.
"What make you so sure that you'll beat me?" Hiccup sighed tiredly as Toothless hit his head on the steering wheel.
"Typical Astrid"
"Well, let me see, I beat your so-called boyfriend, the leader of Monstrous Nightmare who practically ran away in cowardice. Then there's the where I raced down the mountain and back up the mountain even before your boyfriend crossed the finishing line. Your boyfriend just ate my dust and disappeared from the sight. Do you want more?" silence was his reply. "Thought so"
And with that, the two brothers drove away as the roars was still be heard. Astrid was beyond furious that night and she was going to confront him when they meet next time.
