 Elsa's P.O.V.:

I drove into town and went to my nearest hairdressers. I parked the bike, took off the helmet and walked into the hairdressers. I went up to the assistant and asked if they had a free period right now. She nodded and directed me to a chair. I seemed to recognise her from somewhereI waited for about three minutes before the hairdresser came and asked me what I wanted. I told her to free-style and make it short. She smiled and led me over to the wash basin. She washed my hair and led me back to the chair. My wet, white blonde hair was pretty much transparent. My hairdresser, her name was Dani I remembered, began to work on my hair. I watched her work with fascination. Every now and then she'd flip her slick black fringe out of her eyes. She was really pretty. She had long, slick black hair that reached her waist, flawless porcelain skin, elegant almond shaped eyes and latte coloured eyes. She had quick, skilled and slim hand that would work increadibly quickly. Soon she had finished her work and I looked at my new self in the mirror. She had practically shaved my hair off on my right side and my wavy hair was  cut  to just above jaw length and flopped over in a wavy fringe over my left hand side. I looked at myself in the mirror and I honestly didn't recognize myself. I ran my hand through my fringe an fluffed it up. I smiled. "Wow! Dani, this is amazing! Thank you!" I said. Dani smiled. "No problem! What brought this on anyway? It's not like you at all." "Yeah, well, I'm in a break-up right now, and this is my way of getting over it, re-inventing myself and starting over. Kinda' like the song, "Fresh Start Fever" by You Me At Six. One of my favourite songs." Dani nodded, she'd been through this before. I walked over to the desk and paid for my haircut. I gave Dani my new number because we had been friends for years, but not had much contact because she had to leave school because of her now two year-old son, Matthew. He was the result of a drunk one-night-stand and her leaving school and working to earn money to keep Matt alive was the result of horrid parents and an immature teenage father of the child who doesn't care about Dani or his son. That got dark. Anyway, I paid for my haircut and went out to my bike. I slid my helmet on and fired up my bike and went back home. 

I parked the bike and went into the house. Jack was sitting the living room rubbing his bruised cheek. Hiccup was trying to help him, but Jack was refusing him. Punzie and Merida were chatting and didn't notice me. I coughed and said, "I'm just gonna go and practise some fighting skills, okay?" Hiccup and the girls nodded. Jack tried to say somehting, but I walked away before he could say anything. I walked over to my suit and pulled Fulmine's scabbard from the back of the suit and went to my room to change into some practise clothes. I chose some tight fitting black jeggings, a black tank top and my blue combat boots. I also checked that the make-up I used was water-proof. It was. I was about to reach for a hair-tie, when I realised that I didn't need one anymore. I smiled. I picked up Fulmine and went out to the Training Centre in the backgarden. I opened the door and asked Jarvis to set up a training program. I had wired Jarvis into the Training Centre mainframe so that whenever I enter the centre, as long as I'm wearing the earpiece, he'll activate and ask me to set my training settings. When I set them, he'd put them into motion. I asked for the hand-to-hand combat and sword-fighting combat to be put into motion. The programme started up. Jarvis announced that this was the hand-to-hand combat mode was on. I strapped Fulmine to my belt and pulled my fingerless leather combat gloves on that were tucked into the waist of my jeggings because jeggings have no fricking pockets. I mean, who thought that trousers with no pockets was a good idea? I don't know, anyway, I slipped the gloves on and got ready to fight the semi-solid holograms. Then they appeared. I braced myself and when the first one came running towards me I kicked it in the gut and wrapped my arm around it's neck strangeling it. When it 'died', it exploded into orange pixelated blocks, like Minecraft blocks. The next one came running at me and I attacked it in a similar way, but this time, breaking it's neck. Then more and more started coming and the fun began.
