This is an AU story, Human names used!
B is for Berserker
Eduard had always watched his relative Elizabeta. Elizabeta had to guard their village from these Vikings , she had to , that was her job. Sure she was twelve years of age. This upset the 7 year old, as he was left alone in their house multiple times ever since their grandfather left. Then , the Vikings came.
Eduard was frightened and hid in various places in Elizabeta's and his house. Soon after, he heard someone break down the door, " Search the entire house! Find the other one, alive!" Ordered a voice as Eduard heard another voice screaming "Let me go! Let me go and face me like a man!". It was Elizabeta!
"Liz..." Eduard said quietly but then he heard someone, the Vikings must've found hiding place! Suddenly , a hand grabbed him by the back of his shirt. "We found the other one!" A man said, which was the man who was holding poor Eduard.
"Don't you dare hurt him you bastards or I will rip every single one of you assholes to pieces!"
"My, my,my, you have a temper on you don't you? Well, just be glad I had orders from the beserker king named Tino not to kill you or you wouldn't be here right now, you screaming, whining brat." Not long after , the two men (yes two) who had broken into their house and taken the two children hostage, brought them to their main ship. The rest of their fellow Viking warriors or beserkers were destroy the village and not to mention killing people too. "Look away Eduard." Elizabeta said as Eduard watched a Viking soldier brutally kill another man. "Eduard! I told you to look away!" Elizabeta screamed , but suddenly tears rushed down the seven year old's face as the blood splattered onto the ground.
When they were on the man ship and when the two men had let them go from their strong grips, the first thing Eduard did was hug his cousin. He was frightened, and cried. Elizabeta allowed him to hug her and clenched her fists. "Damn bastards." She muttered to herself "Taking us to their stupid beserker king or whatever. What is he going to do? Kill us for sport."
Suddenly, after what seemed like hours, the Vikings went back to their ships. All of what was left of Eduard's and Elizabeta's village was rubble and ash. Though one man then arrived at the main ship. He looked to be quite young, 17-18 years and had blonde hair and violet-purple eyes. He was wearing berserker clothing and was covered in dirt and blood. But then and there was when the duo finally realized that that man was the beserker king. "I see you two have found them, good job." The Beserker king said to the two men who had taken them hostage. "Now anyways, I would like to talk to them in private."
"Yes, sir." The both men had then left the trio to talk as they knew that if they didn't, something horrible would happen.
"Ah hello,~" The berserker king said to the two children with a smile , which made Eduard clench onto his cousin's clothing. "I am Tino, Tino the Beserker King!" He introduced. "How about you te-"
"I don't want to tell my name barbaric scum like you, you dick."
"My, that is no way to talk to your older cousin, especially when a younger child is here. Anyways I wasn't going to ask for your name , Elizabeth." Elizabeta's eyes widened after Tino had replied to her with that. Her cousin? And he knew her name?!
"Anyways, I will be caring for you and Eduard for now on, since grandfather is now dead and has no right to tell me what not to do!"
"B-But you're scary and y-your men monsters killed my friends!" Tino looked at Eduard for a moment, who had finally gathered enough courage to actually speak to the man.
"Oh,well , you shouldn't dwell on the past anyways." Elizabeta rolled her eyes when she heard Tino's stupid remark.
"C'mon ,Eduard , we're leaving." Tino glanced at Elizabeta, who was headed to the exit to the ship until she noticed that ship was moving.
"Yes I should've -" Suddenly, Elizabeta ran towards him screaming angrily, before punching him into the face. Not long after, a short fight broke out onto the ship and in the end, Eduard had gotten overboard, unfortunately, the 7 year old couldn't swim yet.
Elizabeta, who now had a black eyes and a bunch of bruises and cuts then said "Dammit, this is not good-" but was interrupted by a large splash, which was Tino diving into the sea to save his youngest cousin, Elizabeta was dumbfounded when she saw this. Soon after, she saw Tino get back onto the ship with Eduard , who was coughing up water, not to mention the sea water had managed to wash off most of the blood the covered Tino from before.
Elizabeta then hugged Eduard when Tino put him down, "I'm so glad you're alright!" She said to Eduard, who somewhat hugged her back. Not long after, Tino whispered to her "You're not that bad of a fighter, you know , if I train you some , you could become a great warrior."
"R-Really!? I-I mean, whatever, you probably are just making some excuse to fight me again."
This made Tino laugh for a moment, though he was being serious , he would train the 12 year old and he would try his best to take care of them.
