A/N: Yeah, I'm back with another AU. This time it's because I was watching Vinland Saga and loved it that much also Thorfinn's Voice Actor is real relatable while yelling about killing the man who dishonored and murdered his father. So, hopefully, the first chapter will be good. Also, the rating may change later due to later chapters.
"Randy," Sandy croaked, dropping the ceramic jugs of water she was carrying as she looked at the carnage on the outskirts of her village. She rushed to where her brother lay, unresponsive and his sword flung away from him. "Randy." She said again, thankful he was still breathing. It was ragged but he was still breathing.
"Hey," he mumbled, groaning as he clutched his bleeding side. "You gotta leave. Mercenary group's still here."
Sandy glanced up as smoke started to drift into the air, a thick plume already rising into the too blue sky.
"Sandy," she looked down at Randy. "run."
"Who did this to you?"
"Go now,"
"Randy, who did this? Answer me."
Randy grabbed her arm as he coughed, blood dribbling down his chin. "Einar and Vathlauss." He mumbled.
She stared as the life in his eyes dimmed and faded, his grip on her arm going slack. Einar was a family friend, he couldn't have. Sandy dragged in a breath as she ran to the island's shore, nearly tripping over own feet as she came face to face with the carved head of a wolf in the boat's prow. Vikings.
She hadn't known Vathlauss much beside the fact that he was Randy's friend as well as Einar. Why would they. . .they must've been threatened or. . .or.
Sandy sniffled, quickly wiping her eyes as she climbed aboard the empty ship. She'd kill them, she'd find them and kill them both.
