AN: Just a silly little thing that was bouncing around my head since watching Shetland last night xD


A lightning strike from blue skies, a decapitated foreigner, and a man with a sword trying to leave the islands in a hurry.

Surely there was a way to fit all of this together in one neat, logical explanation, Jimmy Perez thought.

Decapitated corpse and swordsman already fit together without problem, but where did the freaky lightning come into it? That just made the case a whole lot weirder…

And speaking of weird: Why was Sandy suddenly even more antsy than before and wearing a bandage on his wrist?

Time to see what Mr. MacLeod had to say for himself…
