"You Bastard!" Came the broken cry. The lithe form flashed across the room to stand in front of the tall man. The flaxen hair tangled and toosed around her face seemed to be alive in her anger. The man in front of her stood silently,knowing his deeds had finally caught up with him.
"You sold us out! Bartered with our very lives!"She screamed at him,pulling back her hand shot out and connected with his jaw. The people around them went silent,afraid to speak during her rage. "You may have made a deal,but I will never Honor it. I will die before I give my loyalty to them!"She spun around grabbing her bow and left the main hall,soon the whispered words returned to break the silence.
He looked around the room at his people.their people. He reached up and felt the sting of his sister's hand still on his skin. She was the fighter,he had grown up the politician. He felt as if he had let them all down,but what he did was for the sake of them all not just for himself. The lands had become a place of corruption, greed and despair. Making this pledge with the Vikings will secure their lands,the future. His sister will eventually come to see this,she would have to. It would be a very unsettling place if she and the new Lord didn't get along. He knew that this was going to be a very rough adjustment for them all.
Reema ran through the trees,her feet light,her heart heavy. Her tears had finally stopped,but her anger still simmered. She would never accept the outlanders,this was her home. Not theirs. She had heard the stories of the Raiders,they were callous,greedy,and only out for their own desires. She refused to be any part of that. She couldn't believe her brother, Rigel, had agreed to this.
If their parents were still alive this would not have to happen. but they weren't,killed in an ambushed 2 years earlier. Their killers never found,but she had a feeling it was someone in the town. Someone they knew,maybe even trusted. She leapt,flipping over a large fallen tree trunk,her feet landing lightly,silently. her eyes flashing as she peered out over the cliff to watch the sea rolling beneath her.
The Raiders would be here soon,coming in large ships to take over everything she knew. Change everything she had come to love. Well, the new Lord had another thign coming if he thought she would make it easier for him. She spun around and darted off into the trees,pulling her bow as she ran. Notching the arrow she let it fly and the rabbit fell dead. Kneeling she lifted the carcass aand draped it over her back. She might be angry,but her people had to eat.
She shot and killed several more rabbits,even a couple wild hens,before turning back towards her home. She walked silently,frowning as the forest went quiet. Someone new was around and the forest didnt like it. Her brother always told her she was too close to nature,she needed to spend more time on womanly things. Gowns,sewing,and finding a husband. She had laughed at him when he had said that. She loved who she was and that wouldnt change.
She stopped,listening. The winds blew softly,yet under that she heard the horse steps. She felt her stomach drop as she peered through the trees to see the line of riders moving in a single file towards her home. They were here..too soon. She let her eyes rest on the rider in front,his size alone was intimidating. Like typical viking blood,he was large,strong and his hair long. His eyes were as blue as the sea they had come from. She stepped back into the shadows,her carelessness causing a branch to snap.
Her head jerked up as they horses reined in and looked her way. She could feel the leaders eyes moving over where she was hidden,turning she took off. Her body leaping and spinning over the forest debris,knowing she had to get back to home before they saw her.

((need one male to play the viking leader,her future husband. It will not be an easy union,she will be resistant,stubborn. Set in her ways. He will have to convince her he is on her side but along the way he will lose his temper at her,and what not..so send me a PM with a opening post and we will go from there. No one liners at least one paragraph and post once a week since I myself am on limited net time.)))
