A Wolf Curse (Hiccelsa) Sequel to Her Wolf (EDITING)

20. 4 Days

Silence ran through us. Dad starred off into the trees. "Four days?" Vitani asked. "Four days isn't enough." She added.

"Actually, it is," Dad said. "It's more than enough time." He then Cringed, with a growl. His arm was still bleeding. 

Mom went to him slowly. "You can't do anything with that!" She told him. 

"I'll be fine." He said pulling away.

"You sure?" She asked him, overly concerned.

"Yeah, I'm sure."

"Okay!" Vitani cut them off. "We need to be Ready, Hiccup!" She told him.

Dad looked at her with a nod. "Yeah, I know."

"So, what do you suggest we do?" Fishlegs asked.

My father turned to him, with a shrug of his shoulders. "Why're you asking me?" He asked.

"You are our leader. Snotlout the one who started this fight. You lead us into it."

My dad looked at him. "... Train... I suppose." Dad said. "Half of you guys aren't ready... Or strong enough." He said, looking to Midnight.

"You're strong enough as an Individual, Hiccup. But you can't fight yourself." Astrid told him.

"Of course I can." Dad snapped.

"No. You can't!" Mother snapped. "And your not! I don't want you wasting your life." She told him.

He sighed. "It's my fight, Elsa."

"And their here to help you."

He sighed again. "Let's go then," he said shifting. "Four days will fly by." He added running off in the direction of the camp.

<•>~<•>

All of us were halfway to our camp. Astrid Fishlegs and my dad took the lead, while Vitani, Midnight and Emma trailed in the back. Mom, Hayden, Krystal, and Jason stayed in the middle. 

Hayden was beside me. "Your dad seems Tense."

"Really?" I ask sarcastically. "He's tense? I didn't notice."

He looked at me. "Sarcasm, I get it."

"He's just a little confused," I say.

My attention goes to Astrid as she stops. "Do any of you smell that?" She asked.

My dad Stopped. "What?"

"Fox." She said.

He sniffed the air again. "I smell it. It's fresh," I look over. A long-distance away, I saw a fox. A white one. It trotted closer to us. My dad's ear twitched. "Do not make it--"

"Fox!" Midnight howled, chasing after it.

"-- mad." Dad finished madly. Midnight pounced on the fox, attacking it. The fox let out a screech biting him. "I told you not to make it mad!" My dad growled to him, running over.

Astrid, Fishlegs and Vitani ran after him. Dad pulled Midnight off of the fox, only to get tackled by the fox. I was about to run but, both my mom and Hayden stopped me. Astrid tackled the fox, just as my Dad pushed it off. The fox bit Astrid, throwing her to the side. Fishlegs pounced on it, keeping it away from my dad, biting its ear. I think for a moment. "Mom, I think I know why the came around in the first place.." I say. And I think I know why it keeps attacking Dad." I say

"Why?"

Sniffing the air to confirm my excuse, I turn to my Mom. "Look, he's injured. It smelt his blood." She looked at me, then to my dad. She sighed sadly. I heard Fishlegs yowl in pain, as the fox threw him across the field. Strong fox. Must be desperate. Astrid and Fishlegs were helping each other up. I searched for Midnight spotting him behind a bush. Wow, What a Scaredy Wolf.

I look to the Vampires. I find it rude of them, to just stand there and make the wolves fight. Vitani jumped in front of my dad. He jumped over her, tackling the fox. The Fox yelped, but pushed my dad off, biting his neck. He shook violently, shaking the blood from his fur. Vitani looked to my Father, as the fox started to regain himself. "Back down, Hiccup! Your hurt." Vitani snarled to him.

My father shook again, shaking blood from his neck, and freshly cut ear. "No, I won't."

"You stubborn wolf!" She snarled. "It's you it wants. It smelt your blood a mile away."

"If that's what it wants, then it'll get it." My Father snarled, jumping over Vitani again.

"Jesus, he's going to get himself killed!" My mother snapped.

"You can't change his mind, Elsa," Vitani told her. My dad and the fox continued fighting. My dad looked as if he couldn't take another hit. From the time, I was focused on something else, the Fox managed to hurt my dad more. 

But the fox didn't go unharmed. Bloodstained its white coat. It held his front paw gently, as did Dad. Only with his hind leg. It was then when I realized how close they were to a cliff. The fox leaped at him, pushing both of them over the cliff. "No!" My mother yelled, running to the cliff. 

Everyone followed. Down below there was water. Only water. "Hey, Hiccup can Swim, right?" Emma asked from the back.

My mother blinked, worry in her gaze. "No not really," my mom said. "He's not a big fan of water."

"Great," Vitani snapped, jumping down. She landed on a small patch of sand. So it's a small beach. Astrid, Fishlegs and Midnight jumped down. And the rest of us used the rock pathway that no one saw. After meeting up with the rest, we wait. I stare at the water, holding to see my dad pop up.

"He drowned, didn't he?" Emma asked.

"No, he didn't," Vitani said. "His scent is still fresh." After a minute, a black figure finally rose from the water, holding a dead animal. The Fox. Which means that was Dad. He swam to the shore, his fur sticking to him.

It was easy to see every injury he got. "Geez, Hiccup! How was that for a fight?" Midnight asked.

He dropped the fox, looking up as he shook the water from his thick pelt. "Fun." He replied, as he took one step, then nearly collapsed from the pain.

Midnight and Fishlegs caught him. Vitani looked at him. "Your hurt pretty badly." She told him.

"It's fine, it'll heal."

"I don't think it will, Hiccup. You still have the gash on your shoulder from when you fought Hayden." Mom told him.

He struggled to stand but managed. He looked at his shoulder then, at the other cuts. "Weird," Dad mutters quietly. He wasn't healing anymore... Is that a bad thing?

"It's getting dark," Jason said looking up. "We should get back to the camp."

"Yeah, we should go," Krystal said before walking away, taking Hayden, and Jason. I looked to my mom, who went to my dad, as we made our way back to camp.
