《The Midgard Serpent (Halfdan the Black x OC)》Chapter 4

Adrenaline, excitement, everything was just running through her body. She finally sailed and made it farther tan she has ever trailed before. Everyone was setting up tents and burning fires, but Alca stood by the water. She looked upon the water she just sailed across.
"Al." She turned around to see Halfdan walk towards her. "Can't you see I am relaxing." She crossed her arms and fully turned her body towards him, looking directly in his eyes. He was definitely taller, but she still looked intimidating. " huh, we are going to go explore and find food, you coming?" She nodded her head and they both walked meeting up with Harald and some other men. "Al, pleasure to see you." " Of course, it was getting a little boring down by the water. Let's move." So, they walked laughing and singing a song. Alca listened to the men singing, not knowing the song, but flowing with it. She spins and turns many ways while walking through the forest. It was her way of dancing. While doing so she saw a man and a boy hiding above, looking upon them. She stopped and looked directly at them. The boy reminded her of her sister. who she never found. She can't kill this child. "Al, let's go."
After more walking, they came across a house with chicken and a fence surrounding it. She sat on the fence and watch the men scavenge the place. She looked to her right and saw a little shed with hay on the bottom. Looking at the top, there were shadows moving. Halfdan came out of the chicken coop and started throwing eggs "Al, you need to eat this." He handed her one and walked towards Harald. "Yeah, thanks." she throws the egg behind her and walks towards everyone, who is heading to the shed. "What are we doing", she asked. "There are women here." "And there are women back at camp who would love to bed both of you. Let's just go." She starts to walk away, but Harald goes and starts to stab the hay. Alca looks up to see a young girls face look down at her. Halfdan sees her and also looks up seeing movement. He hits herald on the chest and next thing Alca sees is the kids on the ground. She walks away not wanting to see what happens to the girls.

Back at camp, she sits by the fire that is burning. "So you went with them." Lagertha sits beside her. "I did, but decided to leave early." "Was it because of the women." She smirks at her, "You could always see right through me. One was the same age as my sister." "Alca she you are never going to see her again. Here is so food." She hands me a plate of food. "I know, but there could be a chance. A boat went missing and could have been on that boat." "Is this hope Alca? Never thought you would show any emotion." " For my sister anything." Alca gets up to leave, placing the plate of food down. "Alca, come with me to the meeting tomorrow." "Thought you didn't want me to fight Lagertha." "I don't, but I also might change my mind." Alca nodded and turned back around.
She started walking to her tent and realizing she didn't know where it is. "Lost." "Well I don't exactly look like I know where I am going Erlendur." "Maybe if you didn't spend so much time down by the water, you would have notice where they put it." She walks closer to him. "What do you want?" "I heard haven't gone by you real name since you been here." A twig snapped behind him, but he kept talking. "What are you trying to hide from them." She kept her mouth shut because she saw a shadow of a man behind him. "What are you afraid of Al...", but before he could say her full name, she punched him straight in the face. She squatted down to him and whispered in his ear. "Ever threaten me again and next time it wont just be my fist that comes into contact with you." She stands up to see Halfdan there. "Huh."

She walks away really fast. "Al wait, Al where are you going." "I don't know Halfdan, why are you following me." "You freaked out earlier." "Yeah I did and I'm not explaining it to another person." She starts walking again. "You tent isn't that way." She stops and turns back. "Then where is it." "Follow me." So the both of them walk in silence. It wasn't long, but they finally got there. "Why do you know where my tent is?" "Saw them set it up." "Yeah." She walks inside and Halfdan follows. "I didn't invite you insi..." "I'm not a man of emotions." "What does that have to do with anything." "Al, I don't know why but..." "Halfdan what is..." She was cut off. His lips where on hers. She stood there. Nothing felt right. She pushed him off of her. She starts to walk away." Al wait." "Don't follow me." She walks to the water and sits down. Her chest physically hurting her. She touched her lips, feeling blood there. She cannot love without giving up fighting. She fell asleep on the sand, wondering way the gods have given her this fate.
From afar a man stood. seeing the blood she kept throwing up. With a smirk on his face, he now could see her suffer, before he gets to kill her.

He was known for disrupting class, school fights, and other stupid reasons. Daniel was the classic "bad boy". He looked the part, and acted the part. Daniel was an egotistical, arrogant, cocky, jerk; but he was also protective of the ones he cared for. To say he was on the radar was an understatement. In his mind, he owned the radar.

8 165A beta life
I heard the boys voice before i saw his face. It sounded like the smooth rehearsed kind of voice you hear in the movies, from the dream boat lead character with the too-good-to-be-true looks. I raised my eyes to search for the owner of the beautiful sound.My eyes met his just as he came into view.He stopped in his tracks, bumping into one of the med students he was following, staring straight at Me. "Mate" he said just loud enough for the huge man behind him to stop and stare in the direction of the boys gaze.I felt a sickening feeling deep in my stomach. I had never felt anything like it before, the instant feeling of nausea followed by what i can only describe as a rush of emotion. What a trip. The meds are extra strong today I laughed to myself as I continued to stare at the beautiful dark haired boy.This institution just got a whole lot better if he is a patient
