Chapter Six; The First Ship

Heavily armored fisher men were about to sail the northern sea with a far distance sailing ship which is ironical and unusual, they loaded eighty ships and planned to wait at a point near London so they will pass London with two ships after every three hours and with no trace of them and without London noticing any Norwegian. the first ship consist of Harold bjoha as the commandant, the second ship is being commanded by king Sigurdsson himself, the ship comprises of one hundred and sixty people, one hundred Norwegians and sixty kattegans. After a long consideration by Harold bjoha, he decided that ships should sail in the night because it kind of impossible for them to pass London unnoticed, especially using ships that weren't meant for shipping with identity of fisher men. The sailors were onboard and they started sailing from Kattegat to northern sea, thought the weather is fine but they established a weather alarm on all the ships so that if storm is rising the alarm will indicate and they will find a weather friendly location to camp before proceeding with the journey, after reaching a degree in the journey, the Vikings started chanting and were talking about their trace and history, discussing bjorn the iron side and ivar the boneless rivalry while on the same ship they have the grandchildren of both and unfortunately castigations started taking place, and as we all know Vikings are a warriors and so considerate of their origins. Fight broke out between the two parties and were trying to bring out weapons to fight each other, Harold was able to resolve the conflict and told them not to try anything stupid again or else he will take excessively harsh decision on anyone who started the fight, and he stated clearly that any discussion on the pass is forbidden inside the ship. It looks like stuffs were back to normal and it is actually back to normal because they embraced each other and weren't talking about the history and were focused on their journey, the step sis of king of Kattegat Mona is together with Harold on the boat and was so sexually willing to sleep with Harold at the moment, and remember that only Harold can read the weather compass, so they were down the ship having sex and the weather coincidentally started getting worst and the compass indicated a stormy area nearby, but Harold was almost risking the life of eighty ship being in charge of the ships, after a moment he noticed that he aren't with compass, after getting hold of the compass he knew that he is doomed and thousands of lives were at risk, he went out on top the ship and realize that he is in a middle of nowhere, and no land close by, but sometimes hard decisions are the best decision, Harold was looking for alternative and the storm is already weaving and cloud is formed, Harold decided that every ten ships should be tied together after every ten ships were tied he ordered that every tied ship should tie itself with another tied ship and the storm was so strong that some ropes started cutting off and the storm was so dark that they need light on each ship, Harold found the storm to be the first challenge and they are at the risk of losing their ship because some ships already disappeared and he lost sight of them and one the strongest Norwegian warrior Noagha is on the missing boat, at that moment Harold was able to realize that twenty boat were missing and one of the main problem is that they don't even know where the storm is taking them to, their previous plan of passing London unnoticed has now changed because the storm derived them directly to a border bridge in London and the London soldiers were alarmed and huge number of forces were present armored at the bridge and they all noticed that Sigurdsson is present and it is definitely going be a long waited battle but only if Kattegat wasn't there. The soldiers noticed that their enemy is on their friend ship and the kings attention was drawn to it but out of ignorance he ordered his forces to bring Sigurdsson dead or alive, but unfortunately they couldn't because the sailors were all ready for all kind of obstacles along the line and were so prepared in terms of man power and armory, the commandants and chief of Kattegat forces Rostov decided to write a letter to king Erick of London advising him to come and have a word with him, the letter says " I advise HE the king of London to have a word with us before making a decision that will make him wanted by the Vikings" the words made king Erick furious but he was as well thoughtful knowing Kattegat involvement in the sail, but nevertheless he wasn't willing to abide by the word and decided to meet with them, upon reaching the point he saw Sigurdsson and he told Rostov that "a friend to my enemy is also my enemy it doesn't matter who" Rostov asked the king to sit with them and have a chat, after a discussion with Erick, HE decided to think of it. King Erick went back home and his daughter was asking him that she thought is coming back with the head of the betrayer that resulted into breaking away of their family, she yelled at her father and told him that he should not talk to her again if he can't gift her the gift of Sigurdsson's body, being the only daughter king Erick has, he can do anything that pleases her. So king Erick of London was willing to risk London for his daughter's happiness, so he sent a message to them that to avoid battle they have to give him Sigurdsson or battle will surely take place. Harold bjoha went forward to tell Sigurdsson and Rostov that they will ask for three days ultimatum to decide so at that period they will try to prepare themselves and repair their ships so that they can fight the battle and they all agreed to do that and sent letter that they need three days, king Erick approved but was so wise to send a watch dog to check their daily routine and report to him, the watchdog went forward and did as he was asked, on the other hand Noahgha and the missing twenty ships flooded and passed the London bridge into a small land in London and Noagha ordered the passengers to stay as he will go and search for information in the nearby town, he reach a small village and had the rumors about the Vikings being stocked and were forced to camp at threshold of the river, Noagha decided to dress like a citizen of London and decided to reach the bridge, upon reaching the bridge he was sighted by Sigurdsson standing at a highland and Sigurdsson informed Harold about that and they entered a boat and were playing a trick showing Noagha what to do, they used a wooden castle to show that they want him to infiltrate the palace and kidnap the kings daughter tomorrow and he should repair his ships tonight and arrange them somewhere outside the walls of London and wait for them, they passed a very important information without using a word and Noagha was able to comprehend the information in full. On the other hand King Erick was preparing for a battle and was so determined to achieving his objectives while Noagha was also determined to carry out his orders. King Erick and his forces matched forward to the battle ground and found out the opposition soldiers were not even showing any sign of fighting back and king Erick asked his watchdog about it and the watchdog told him that he saw nothing that looks like they have prepared for battle, the king was surprised seeing them loaded in their ship trying continue their journey and he asked in surprise where do you think you are going? And Harold bjoha told him that " we are going to find your daughter I heard that she was kidnapped " king Erick was so confused and delegated a men to bring his daughter upon reaching the palace they found the daughter at home and were bringing her as the order dictated not knowing that it's a trap to kidnap her, after she was on her way to the point, Noahgha and his ten men attacked the delegation and capture her and disappeared with no trace, news reached king Erick that his daughter was kidnapped along the way coming here, he ordered a search inside and outside London, but for a day and night she couldn't be found and king Erick sent a letter which says "this battle couldn't be fought and I'm not interested in Sigurdsson again, all I asked for is my daughter" they take on with the sail with a promise that his daughter will be safe, after the sailors were out of London they sent a letter to king Erick which say " your daughter is locked in the library of your palace, we are never with her" . King Erick checked and found his daughter and hugged her and promise her that next time he has a chance he will surely do whatever it takes to gift her what he failed to do this time around. King Sigurdsson hugged Noagha and told him that your bravery would surely be written in gold and shall always be remembered, then king Sigurdsson decided to dash him an honorary gift of shoulder golden bracelets and unfortunately Noagha saw a black deer stain on his shoulder and told Sigurdsson that I saw this sign with the girl I captured, king Sigurdsson was surprised, what? For real? Are you sure? The princess? This sign? And Noagha called on one of the soldiers that accompanied him to the palace and the soldier confirmed it. Sigurdsson was so happy, he was desperate, he was eager and was so excited to know that she is his daughter and was asking questions that why the king did protect her? Those he know? Question keep coming up his mind to the extent that Harold noticed that but decided to allow him for a while. King Sigurdsson asked for Harold and he asked Harold to do me a favor of going back to bring his daughter along. Harold was thoughtful and asked are we really going back? Sigurdsson answered "it's an order"
