The Vikings Payment

Arrival Of Secrets

"Neania we have arrived" their was a soft formilar voice whispering in my ear.

I peeked my eyes open rubbing my eyes allowing my vision to be fully activated befor I seen it was Parisa and Taylin. They were both smiling and I looked out the large window seeing it was dark

"The just started setting but we are ready to get off this damn thing." Lady Taylin gushed with excitment evident on her face

"Are your legs better, if not I can get Lord Aku to carry you.?" Taylin said smiling looking at Parisa who was also making googly eyes at Taylin and we all busted out in laughter.

The door open and Aku walked in dressed in his armor and lots of furs, he was smiling ear to ear as he came to the bed.

"I have brought you a fur and some boots to give you warmth to my home, all the village is waiting outside with lanterns to see what I have brought home." he smiled laying all the furry stuff on the bed

"How do your legs feel?" Lord Aku asked me rubbing my leg

I giggled and everyone smiled at me and watched me and I stopped "I am fine I can walk they are still sore but I am sure I can stand on them." I smiled pulling myself to the edge of the bed

Just as I was about to pull my legs over the side Lord Aku grabbed my first leg and grabbed the boot with his other one he slowly moved it on my foot and then the next foot. I laid my feet on the ground not feeling a single inch of the coldness of the wood then I stood up all the way everyone watched me with a steady eye as if I was a child. I felt my leg trimble and I grabbed the bed post as everyone reached out to me.

"Please ...I am okay." I laughed at how they looked once I felt more safe I walked to the door and back. "See fine" they smiled and then Lord Aku grabbed my hand

"Come the people await us." He said squezzing my hand for confidence

He open the door and the senery was breath taking the sun on the herizon the orange sky lit up by the sun. The clouds that looked as if you could reach up and touch them the mountains with snow on them the river with steam coming up from it. I gasped at hoe beautiful his home really was nothing like mine with mud and houses and buildings all over the houses were spaced out umongs the green passure that was very green with some snow.

"Turn around" he whispered in my ears

I turned around and hear the cheers and yells and screams it was people with huge lanterns in their hands. Some were waving and others were clapping, the boat was right on the side of the cliff were the people where when he pulled me towards the ladder we walked out and the people were congradulating him while others were embracing their loved ones. I looked at some people as they watched me and some glared at me while others smiled and welcomed me with hellos and hugs. I was suprised at how everyone was so happy to see him

Their was a huge carriage at the end of the crowed as Kon came and opened the door Parisa, Taylin and I got in he shut the door and said something to their drive in their language and we started moving.

"Wow this place is like something in a book!" Parisa smiled gushing at how pretty this place was

"I told you our home was nice, just wait till you see Akus home it is beautiful not to have a woman of any worth in it." she stated proudly then aggervatedly

"You dont live with you brother?" I asked in shock it was not normal for a unmarried woman not to live with her family

"No" she laughed "I have my own house it is 4 miles just outside the village I love my brother but I like my space more." she smiled and leaned back
