Chapter 31
Mia Pov:
We ended up getting news of what happened a few days after through a message from Jake about the incident. That was 3 years ago.
They said some hikers had been near a hole that fire came out of. But the Helicopters went after them and killed them somehow. It was known because a group of hikers were found dead in the forest surprisingly. Stoick either planted those, or we were lucky.
Anyway, we have everything required for school and are heading out to the dorms. We can't stay here due to the distance and problems that could arise. It is said we arrived by boat the other day and we plan on going to the dorms today. The dorms opened up yesterday, Monday, then a week from then on the next Monday, school starts.
After securing everything and hiding the background maker, we head out. We have bags, suitcases, and more. The twins have matching backpacks and suitcases with their computers and other objects of importance. Snotlout just has a giant backpack for himself. As for me, I have a foot locker with my 2 suitcases and my backpack on it. Did I overpack, I honestly don't know.
We went into town the other day to buy supplies. We don't know if we will have school uniforms or not, but I don't plan on being unprepared. Ruffnut also has a Footlocker that she shares with her twin Tuffnut.
We head through the forest. As we go, we stop by one of the many garden patches and grab our breakfast. Out breakfast consists of an apple, milk, and a cob of corn. We also have some giant water bottles for the journey. We will be entering town right before light arrives. We plan on doing that so no-one knows where we came from.
As we head through the forest, we hear some noises and we get down. We look through the shrubbery to see two people also doing the same as us. One has auburn hair, green eyes, and is 6 foot, he is about 3 inches taller Tuffnut and Ruffnut. The other has blonde hair, blue eyes, and is my height of 5'9, same as Ruff and Tuff. Snotlout though, he is 5'3, which he hates.
They each have a backpack and a suitcase. "I'm telling you, I know these routes. Remember, I lived in the forest the entire time before you, the Jorgenson's, and the Dire's came to the clearing where I lived," The man with auburn hair says.
"Fury and Freya?," Snotlout says, being the big idiot he is, but that is what I like about him. That being other than something I had accidentally seen. Being in the forest and not having plumbing we went to a nearby stream to wash. There I had seen it, around last month.
"Whose there?," They both ask, dropping their suitcases and getting into a fighting stance.
"It's us," The twins say as we all stand up. Snotlout has stayed pretty much the same, the twins grew a half foot. Ruffnut's asset's had grown to C size, same for me. Which seem to be the same as Astrid.
"Elmia, Ulgerthrope, Shtuffnut, and Cackleffnut! Wait, where are your dogs?," Hiccup asks, a little bit confused. True they had escaped, but we decided something when we did. We would keep them out of our troubles as much as possible. But there was another reason, the dorm did not allow them.
"As you know, the Dorms do not allow dogs sadly, but they do allow cats for some reason. We sent a message to Thorfinn and he will come pick them up and take them back to his island," I say.
"I see, he forgot to mention that then. Hayden is currently getting supplies and then he will be back. He checked into the dorms Yesterday. He just had to go back and get some stuff," Astrid informs us.
"Yeah, but I think he has changed the most. He went from being around 5'6 to being 7 foot. I just can't wait to see Jake and Emma and Harper, I wonder how much they have changed," Hiccup finishes.
"Well, let's get going then," I say as we set off. With that, we hike towards town. According to Hiccup and Astrid they thought they would arrive at 8, but they arrived sooner than planned. They arrived before the sun rose along with us. We walked down the road as cars started to go by.
As we walked though, we came upon a shop for a up and coming company and Astrid helped me convince the others to stop. We entered and started to look around at the new products. This company was started a few years ago by a man that no-one has seen. Yet it brings in millions per year. Hunter, somehow, managed to acquire a couple of motherboards for us to install the OS's onto.
As we browsed we heard foot steps on a stairway. "Welcome to Dragon Electronics, how may I help you?," Someone said after exiting the back door behind the counter. It was a, larger than average man I guess. He was my height and his arm was as thick as Snotlout head. Not a man you would expect to work here. He had Blonde hair and green eyes.
"We were just browsing, we saw this store since we had products from the company. I am Fury by the way, this is Freya, Ulgerthrope, Elmia, Shtuffnut, and Cackleffnut," Hiccup says, introducing us.
"I see, I don't know who designed it, but apparently there is a new OS coming out. It's called Rumble something," The person says.
"Rumble-horn?," Tuffnut says, answering the man.
"Yeah, Rumble-horn, I saw a test run of it and it was top notch?," He starts, but stops. He stopped because he saw everyone's threatening glares.
"The Rumble-horn OS is not even leaked, so how did you get your hands on it. The Dragon Incorporated prides itself on leak free systems. So how did you even find out about it? Whoever you are?," Astrid questions.
