Near LeatherHead Island
A small island that is shape like a crescent moon was being bombarded and battered by the storm that brew in as night falls in. a small town could be on the island stretching from each end of the island. A short bald old man was tying the rope of her ship, securing it so it won't get swept away by the raging sea. The old man was now drenching from head to toe alongside his other companion who was helping him to secure the small ship. Turning around, wiping away the cold liquid that got in his eyes, he then look at the single occupant of the small vessel.
A chill run down on his spine as he took in the appearance of the newcomer, Red tunic becomes a bit darker as it was drench by water, a dark, a dark skirt studded by small metallic spikes, darks pair of boots, thick bracers covered in fur, his blood run cold as her see the stranger`s cold cerulean eyes pierce under the fur hoodie that was attach to a metallic shoulder guards.
Just by looking at the pair of eyes, his mind tells him to back away or there will be consequences. But he couldn't stare away from the pair of eyes that stare right at his soul. He was taken back when he heard the newcomer speak, he didn't expect to hear an angelic and alluring voice to come out from the mouth of a person that holds an intimidating aura and presence. "How much?" the stranger asks.
5 minutes have gone by and he wasn't able to answer the newcomer`s question. "I said…" His eyes widen before he took a step back, bumping into one of his companion as he see the stranger reach out for her axe. "…How much?" the woman asks. The man and his companion barely heard it as the boom of thunder and loud hissing of the wind continue to surround the island.
He quickly shakes his head as terror crawls to his face. "No. it's on the house." He said frantically. Normally he would take two silver coins for payment and if they didn't pay up he could just let companions, 3 in total handle the rest. But not today, not this 'customer', he highly doubt that even with his 3 workers could take on this stranger and would be able to intimidate let alone harm her.
The moment that she reaches for her weapon, all 3 of them quickly unsheathed their swords and quickly stand in front of their boss. "I didn't ask for how much for the payment." She said as she grab her axe and idly look at the three. "I asks for how much money you have on you." She then starts to walk towards the four of them without any hint of fear. Walking towards them with her head up high not caring if they out number her. "I wasn't able to use my axe for a week now." She continues to strides towards them, the wooden planks of creak with each step she take. "You four will do…" She said before stopping a few feet in front of them.
Seeing that they were facing an enemy he orders the three of them attack. The moment he told them they quickly sprinted towards the newcomer with their weapons at the ready. A bright flash blinded him as lightning cut through the dark clouds above, his blood froze as the blindness subsided, and there in front of him lie three lifeless bodies and the stranger staring at him with her bloody axe in hand.
Fear grips and paralyze his body and he could only stare in horror as the stranger approach him. as he watch her walk closer towards him he could feel the killing intent. She raises her axe when she was close enough to land the killing blow. "P-please, I have a family!" the man pleaded as he closes his eyes and brought his arms up to shield himself.
She freeze, her axe a few centimeters from slicing through the old man`s skull. "What are you doing, Astrid? I thought I told you that when it comes to fighting I take control." She then backs away slowly. The man slowly and cautiously opens his eyes and see the stranger back away.
"No… please he has a family." She whispers. The voices inside her head laughs. "So what if he have a family?" the voice answers back losing her patience. "You don`t have one, Astrid. I thinks it`s just fait for his family to feel the lost too."
The old man curiously look at the stranger as she shakes her head as she was talking with someone else.
Astrid shakes her head before lowering her axe and strapping it on her back. "I don`t care…" She murmurs. The voice inside her head remain silent before giving out a tired sigh. "Fine but next time I wont let this happened again."
The old man sigh in relief as the stranger picks up her basket and walks towards the direction of the town. But he tense when he see the stranger look over her shoulder with the same cold eyes and stare at him. "My ship and everything on it better be still there when I come back or else…" he heard him. He frantically nods his head.
Standing in front of an inn, she could heard the loud inhabitants inside, pushing through the door, her nose was blasted by smell of ale, and sweat of the men inside. The noise stops at the moment she enters; she could feel their stares as she walks towards them. I mean who wouldn't? A woman just enter the inn alone and while a storm was outside.
Astrid made her way towards the counter and asks the girl if there were any room available, she could feel them staring behind her, she shrug there curious stare as she pays the girl and grabs the key to her room as she made her way upstairs.
The people inside the inn goes back to their own business the moment, she grabs her keys. As she made her way up, Astrid notice at the corner of her eye, a lone figure wearing a black, short sleeved hooded shirt, a brown leather vest, dark grey pants, and brown boots, sitting at the far corner of the inn, Astrid couldn't see the figure`s face because of the hood and brown mask.
Even if she couldn't see the eyes of the figure, she could feel its eyes watching her.
So what do you guys think?
