Capítulo 26: '2.6'Losing the stolen
After that night, I have been more paranoid than ever. I would listen to every sound and watch every movement - to be completely honest, I thought I was going crazy myself.
Viggo came to my tent the following morning to give me some 'tasks' to do. Like decorating. Of course being me, I didn't dare defy his order. Speaking of orders ... He still ows me a favor. I wonder on what I'm going to spend it on.
As my hands spun rope over the piece of metal rapidly, my head wondered on the possibilities. Some time passes before someone speaks up. " Uhh miss? I think you ran out of rope." A voice carefully spoke behind me. " Huh?" I asked, slowly looking at where he was pointing. My hand was turning around in circles without anything actually holding it.
Embarrassed by my actions, I quickly found an excuse." I knew that. I was just practicing." I said, glaring at the gaurd. He swiftly turned around and went on with who knows what. The Dead of night ceremony isn't my most preferred thing to celebrate. One of the most obvious reasons is because almost everyone will be here - it's a tradition. Secondly, which is the worst reason, I need to wear a dress. And not just any dress, but the most over-important dress of them all. I internally groan at the thought of having to wear that on my Livingday. ( Living day is like a birthday but since we don't know what they call them... I'm calling them Livingday. IDK why. ) I could already imagine all the attention on me, which made me cringe at the thought. Attention wasn't really something I liked. Affection, yes but not unneeded attention. I sighed as I went through the list of things I needed to do before resting. The list was quite long, but lucky me - I already finished half of the list.
The rest of the day felt like a blur. Do this, do that, don't take too long and finish this. Before I could register what actually happened, the sun started to set behind the mountains. My brain was completely destroyed with nothing in particular. It just felt dead.
Sighing, I walk through the forest with a large map in my hand. My eyes constantly scimming all the different places marked with a different color each. ' If I could actually understand this, maybe I could travel sometime later. Oh! I wonder if Destiny's already healed. We could travel with each other and then-'
My thoughts abruptly stopped. Whispering and shuffling of feet sounded through the forest. My hand immediately snatched a dagger, holding it close to my chest. I knew it could be Guards but if it was, they'd be shouting at the top of their lungs and laughing without a care.
My ears ringed as I tried to listen closely. Then it stopped. Nothing was there. No noise, no movement. Nothing.
Am I going crazy? Am I that paranoid? This can't be. I heard it! People were talking it couldn't just stop... Unless... If it wasn't real.
I let out an unintentionally loud groan and huffed with irratation.
I pocketed my dagger and went on with my business looking at the map distinctively. A few minutes pass with me furrowing my brows and scrunching my face in confusing as I walked through the clearing. As I walked the pain became too much to actually walk, so I started limping, slowly but surely.
I was completely vulnerable when I was in this state. Only focusing on what I saw rather then what I didn't.
Then again, whispering was heard, this time louder and clearer.
I stopped and smacked the map on my lap in irratation while stomping my foot. " Seriously! I'm busy! Can't you knuckle heads-" My sentence was discarded to the silence as I stared in front of me. I blinked. And again. And again. But no matter how much I blinked, the figures were still standing there.
" Uhh... This isn't what it looks like. " Hiccup said, trying to stop me from doing anything. I just look at him and silently nodded over and over.
The whole 'gang' was staring at me in distress with dragons growling warningly. I slowly dropped the map to the ground and stared ahead. Once I have come to realize the situation and the more obvious tension, I broke the silence.
" What are you doing?" I asked bluntly. They exchanged glances. " Promise to not scream okay?" Hiccup warned, slowly stepping forward as if I was untamed dragon.
My face expression couldn't have been more obvious that I didn't approve of the way he walked. ' Seriously, I thought he was the brains of the group. Do I look like a dragon to you?'
I nodded. " Okay." He said simply, looking behind for confirmation. That spiked my gaurd as I heard them talking lowly. My hand went to a dagger, clutching it as if for dear life. " Don't. Even. Think about it." Heather spat holding her double sided ax out in a threatening manner.
I narrowed my eyes at her, slowly sliding out the dagger out of the pocket. Hiccup glared at me and quickly pulled back his outstretched hand. I squatted, swiftly grabbing the map. Why would I risk my life for a map? No idea.
I geuss I just didn't like the fact to lose something thats stolen. Yes, I mayyy have stolen a map or two from Viggo.
But I couldn't bare the irony if I lost it. I stood up, putting a cold glare on my face.
Within a second, both sides were armed. I held out my daggers, standing in a fighting stance.
Hiccup and his 'friends' were getting ready to fight. Tuffnut and Ruffnut were getting ready to fight each other more than me, but I didn't expect anything else.
Before I could register what was happening, Toothless opened his mouth.
Then, he released a purple blast of plasma. But the worst thing of all is that I didn't have any shelter, nor any cover.
Or did I?
