The Son Of Ragnar

Kolbeinn was well enough to open his eyes, he awoke and took a quick survey of his environment and saw that the people around him were no other than the members of the Sturlungar clan that were fighting under Tyr. 

Kolbeinn heaved a loud sigh of relief the moment he saw them because he had hoped that Tyr was safe considering the scale of the battle and if Tyr was safe, then things were certain to work out in their favor.

"Where is Tyr? T-Those bastards have Gudrun!" Kolbeinn cried out but the man he spoke to looked confused because he did not know any Gudrun.

"Tyr is gone…" These were the only words that left his lips and Kolbeinn\'s face looked hopeless the moment he heard this.

"What the hell do you mean gone!?" Kolbeinn barked, gripping his torso but the pain that rocked his body forced him back down.

"They have him… He protected us! We were his enemies only a couple of days back and he threw away his life for us… I do not know if that is admirable or crazy…" The man said, clutching his face as tears streamed down his cheeks. 

Kolbeinn had to calm down as he realized he was not the only one stressed out about what has been happening.

He did not know what was happening but he knew that these people needed a leader. 

Should he go and save Tyr, the success rate of this was close to zero but he had a higher chance of saving his daughter.

Kolbeinn had a very difficult decision to make. 

-

Aksel was changing and latching, his men were happy about their harvest in this battle because they had acquired quite some women. 

Aksel was a man that could best Ulf in combat so he was by no stretch of the imagination, weak. 

He watched his men have their way with the women that they had conquered.

Aksel could not believe that Kjell did not join in on this feast and he did not return to camp either. 

He had set up a temporary camp to enjoy this because he planned to kill the girls when he was done with them. 

The girls were in a cage and people took turns in picking out the one they would assault but they could not skip, they had to pick the girl before they could move on to the next so if one warrior was not interested. They had to sit it out until the girl present was picked and so on. 

Gudrun was further down the line up so she still had time to contemplate an escape. 

But things were looking hopeless, Aksel was no ordinary warrior and these were no ordinary Vikings. 

They were Vikings that had fought real wars.

"Calm down Gudrun, they will come for us…" Nora whispered, standing right next to her as she tried to reassure her. 

Gudrun has never had sex and this was no way for a girl to lose her virginity either. 

Nora was just going to let it happen, she knew Gudrun had feelings for Tyr and this was no way for a girl to lose her virginity. 

"Gudrun, let us switch," Nora said, she wanted to buy as much time as she could for Gudrun as the ladies swapped places. 

Aksel noticed this and called them out on it because other girls were begging to swap amongst one another but the true nature of mankind prevailed as each looked only after themselves yet there was Gudrun and Nora, looking after each other. 

"Fuck, act natural…" Nora whispered to Gudrun. Gudrun\'s face looked pale, she was terrified because these men were not even hiding their brazen acts, they were violating them in the open and some girls died during the act.

Aksel walked towards the girls in the cage, and a sinister smirk crept up on his face.

Unlike the other girls there, Gudrun looked young and fresh, Aksel decided then that he would take her for himself.

He did not need to obey the lineup and immediately yanked Gudrun by the wrist. 

"Please! Take me!" Nora begged; the sun was barely making it through the dense clouds but it was past noon at this point, easily around 4:54 P.M 

They allowed them to rest the night before and fed them considering what they had in mind. 

Aksel slapped Nora, knocking her to the ground as he carried Gudrun away. 

Nora was dazed, she had hit her head on the wood that the cage was composed of. 

Gudrun screamed and struggled in vain but all this drew mocking laughs from the Vikings around them. 

"Hahaha! You will all have your turn when I\'m done!" Aksel said as he carried her into a tent. 

Nora got back to her feet, she noticed how fast the line was depleting after this act because they feared that Aksel might break his new toy and come for another one. Nora knew at this rate, she would be taken in less than two minutes. 

-

"Nothing beats a young girl\'s flesh," Aksel said out loud, and Gudrun immediately took a defensive stance.

"If you come any closer! I will kill you or myself!" Gudrun barked, Aksel did not look impressed by this threat and just stared blankly at her. 

"Scream," Aksel instructed, the look he had on his face when outside had disappeared. 

She had seen him partake in this inhumane treatment of women as he had his way with one already but his face was not the same as it was then.

"I will show no fear!" Gudrun barked.

Aksel kissed his teeth in irritation and crawled towards her and there was the scream. 

The cheers outside echoed, Aksel had changed since the war because he realized there was no honor in defeat, no one remembers the honorable warrior and it all started with Egil.

If only Egil had killed Asger, then none of this would have happened as Kattegat would have no grounds to wage war considering Asger had encroached on their territory. Askel had thrown away all shred of dignity he had a

nd now, Gudrun was about to be a statistic.
