Marie Egildóttir And The J-Gang Bullies
it was about a month after Marie had barely escaped from Truls and Aage the bandits of the town, and nobody had heard from them since.
the village seemed to be in peace and Marie was sitting down by the coast thinking about her father Egil who had been gone for almost a year know exploring the world. she wondered where he was now, what he explored and how long it would be before he got back.
they had a map of Europe back home and he had pointed out a few places that was among the destination.
Marie stood up and felt the wind in her long blond hair. normally most girls and woman back then would be wearing a long dress, but Marie used to explore a lot and then the dress would just be in the way.
when she was 9 years old her dad had brought her a Tunic that reached only to her knees, and she would only use that specific tunic everyday until she grew out of it. so last time Egil got home he had bought several tunics to Marie in different sizes so whenever she grew out of the ones she had now she could use another one.
today she was wearing a yellow tunic and her regular boots, it was still summer so she was barelegged.
Marie walked to the village and hoped that her dad would be back soon.
in the village it was starting to get quiet. most people had done what they had to do and the market was shotting down for the day.
beside of the baker that was taking away the few breads he had left Marie only spotted 3 other humans around.
it was the J-Gang, the local bullies of the town. the reason they had the name was because the 3 members had a name starting with J.
the leader of the group was Jan, 13 years old and was the shortest in the group. he had red hair blue and always seemed to be wearing a sleeveless shirt. his muscles was not really that big compared to what Marie's brother Harald had. but still it seemed like Jan thought he was a lot stronger than he really was.
then there was Jens, also 13 and he was the REAL muscles of the group, but at the same time he was stupid as a cuckoo. he had brown hair that covered his eyes and had a huge tendency at picking his teeth with a knife.
the last one was Joar and just like the others he was 13, being the tallest of them who had short blond hair. secretly Marie thought he was kinda cute, but she didn't like how he always was with the other two.
Joar was not as strong as Jens but then again he was a lot smarter than the two of them combined. he knew a lot about weapons as his father was the blacksmith.
the three of them always seemed to be creating trouble somehow. like the one time they had untied the knots of every fishing boat that was around during the middle of the winter.
it was so cold that day, the entire village was covered in snow and some of the mens had to swim out in the freezing water and get the boats back.
then there was the time when they had grabbed eggs from as many seagulls nest as they could and tossed them at the people around the village.
whatever they where planning now it was definitely nothing good.
Marie tried to sneak up behind and spy on them to find out what they where up to now.
"AAAAAAAAGH, i'm so BORED!" that was Jan who said so, no doubt about it.
"come on, there is got to be something we can do around here?"
Jan was a very hyper active kid and had problems with standing still for more than 10 seconds.
suddenly Joar whispered something "Marie is spying on us behind that well".
"really?" Jan looked over at the spot where Marie was hiding "i think i know what we can do then"
he pointed his fingers at Jens and in the direction of Marie. then they both walked toward her hiding spot and took one side each.
"i suggest that we teach this girl not to spy on us!" he shouted as they grabbed Marie's arms.
"ups" she said "hey guys, what are you up to?" as if nothing special was going on.
"you'll see" Jan said as they dragged her out of town.
Jan was also living on a farm, but a lot bigger than the one Marie's family had.
Marie only had like 8 goats, 12 hens, 2 roosters and a dog.
the farm Jan was from by the other hand, they grew vegetables and had a lot more animals around.
when they started to get closer to Jan's farm Marie said "you don't have to hold my arms".
"okay" Jens said and let go of her arm.
"grab her arm again or she will try to escape chicken brain" Jan said with an frustrated tone in his voice.
"nice try, it almost worked" Joar complimented Marie. he was a head taller than her and she looked up into his shiny blue eyes. what in the name of Odin was this feeling she had every time she looked at Joar, it was like her heart stopped for a short time and then started to pump faster than usual.
"yeah, but you won't get away that easy" Jan suddenly said.
unlike Joar, Jan was a head shorter than Marie even though they both where a year older than her.
they reached the barn and the first thing Marie noticed was the cows staring at them when they entered. they walked up a stair and from there they could see down at the cows and a big haystack as half the floor was open. Jan let go of Marie's arms and grabbed a chair that they pushed her into.
"now we are going to teach you a lesson" Jan grinned at her as he grabbed a brown rope that he threw at Joar, then took another length himself.
Marie knew what was coming to her and said "well, you sure know how to treat a young girl" with a sarcastic voice.
this was probably the 7th time the boys had tied her up.
she still remembered them all as if it was yesterday.
the first time when she was 8 it was all fun and games, she pretended to be a princess while the boys would kidnap her and tied her up in a boat.
but the second time she got tied up it was because they told her about a prank they where up to she didn't want to and told them she would tell her mom, then they had tied her up to make sure she didn't tell on them.
the next couple of times they had tied her up just to be mean. like that time when she was 10 they tied her up, then took Jens's fathers boat and rowed to an island where they left her tied up. after a lot of struggling she had managed to free herself but she would then have to swim back to the mainland.
but the worst time they had tied her up was about a year ago when she was 11.
Marie had walked into the woods to a river she knew about.
she had undressed all of her clothes and jumped into the fresh water for a nice swim.
what she didn't know was the J-Gang had went to the same river for fishing that day, when they saw her they took her clothes.
so when she got back up and discovered that her clothes where gone they grabbed her and tied her to a tree.
but something else happened that day too. she got to see a new side of Joar that she never had seen before, during the whole time when they tied her up he protested and told the others that they where going to far. then Jan and Jens went to get something and Joar apologized for what she had to go trough and untied her, then he told her to punch him in the face.
he would tell the others that they didn't tie her up good enough and that she had escaped.
she did like she was told and grabbed her clothes.
she then walked into the bushes and watched what happened.
Joar pretended to have a problem breathing when Jan asked him what happened
"you didn't tie her up enough so she escaped and managed to punch me in the face, then she kicked me in the stomach so i lost my breath".
he told them that she ran across the river and Jan and Jens started to look in that direction.
she walked back out from the bushes she where hiding as she pulled her tunic back on.
"are you alright?" she had asked
"yeah, i have taken more beating than that"
Marie reached out her arm and then helped him stand up "well... thanks, that was nice of you to help me like that" she said.
"no problem, now go before they return".
back in he present where she now was about to be tied up again by the J-Gang for the first time in a year, Marie was sitting on the chair as Joar was tying her arms together in front of her. the rope was then led to her knees and tied around them, that way her arms where tied by the wrists to her knees.
meanwhile Jan tied her ankles together.
"so what are you going to do to me this time?" she asked.
"shut up!" Jan said annoyed.
meanwhile Joar was now wrapping a rope around Maries upper body. the rope went around arms and the back of the chair so her arms got pinned to her body around the elbows. after the rope had went around her 8 times he took the remaining of the rope and pulled it under the chair and then tied it to the rope around her ankles so her feet got pulled under the chair.
then they took a last rope and wounded it underneath the chair seat and across her lower body so her arms got pinned to her lap.
"this time we make sure you won't get away" Jan said "last time you got lucky, if i had been the one guarding you would never even be able to punch me down the way you did with Joar".
"are you sure about that?" Marie just had to ask, she knew Jan would get really pissed off after a while if she kept talking like this.
"look, Joar is a weakling, only a weakling would be knocked down by a girl" Jan started to laugh.
Marie laughed a little and said "if he's a weakling then what are you? you can't even tie a me up properly".
Jan started to seem like he was even shorter than he already was "yes i do".
"no you don't, Joar tied me up this time, the only thing you did was my ankles which Joar by the way secured. you are so weak you don't even know how to make sure your captives are properly bound. how did you even become the leader?" Marie was enjoying this so much, she could see how Jan started to lack his self-esteem.
"THAT'S IT, SHUT YOUR MOUTH!!! he suddenly shouted. Jan was so angry his entire face turned red.
"no, you shut up" Marie said back to him.
"SHUT YOUR MOUTH!!!"
"no, you shut up"
"SHUT YOUR MOUTH!!!"
"no, you shut up"
"SHUT YOUR MOUTH!!!"
"no, you shut up"
"JUST SHUT YOUR STUPID GIRLY MOUTH ALREADYYYYY!!!"
"no, you shut up"
Joar couldn't hold it anymore, he busted into laughter and felled down on the floor as he rolled around while laughed.
"WHAT'S SO FUNNY?" Jan was really mad now.
"your reaction, you remind of those lemmings we found here the other day that got so mad that their head blew up".
"i wouldn't be so mad if she just SHUT HER MOUTH!!! Jan shouted out.
"no, you shut up" Marie said while she laughed a little too.
Jan was getting more and more red, he looked like he was about to explode.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!! GAG HER!!!
"oh, i didn't see that one coming" Marie said still laughing a little as Jens stuffed her mouth with a handkerchief and tied a scarf around her mouth.
Jan was breathing loud and hard as he tried to calm down.
"so, now what?" Joar asked.
"come with me, i got an idea" Jan said. he walked out with Jens and Joar following.
Marie was now all alone in the barn... well except for the cows that was.
she heard one of the cows mooing and figured out she had to get out somehow.
Marie started to struggle. one thing was for sure, Joar was a lot better with the ropes than Aage and Truls was when they had tied her a up a month ago. it was impossible to get out of this, Marie could barely move her arms or legs at all. still Joar had used less ropes than what the thieves did.
part of her wanted to give up, but she knew that the gang would come back anytime and they would have something really cruel planned for her.
there was no way she would give up, she had to get free from this somehow.
"MMMMMPPHH!" she tried to scream for help trough the gag, but no use.
suddenly she heard the door open.
oh no, are they back already? what are they going to do toward her?
to be continued...

Thanks for another story, Viking.
Egildottir means daughter Egil, right?
Anyway, to the story!
Marie has a crush on Joar! On the other hand, he seemed a nicer than the others.
It was really mean of them to tie her naked to the tree! I'm glad Joar did what he did.
I was thinking when they were arguing, "Why don't he just gag her?" Although he eventually did, I still laughed at it! That was the first thing they should have done with her.
I wonder who arrived? I bet it's the J gang!
Update as soon as you can, Viking!

you are correct Tom Ford, Egildóttir is old Norse and means daughter of Egil and Marie's Brother Harald who has Egilsón as last name means son of Egil. this was also a typical thing for the vikings. the only country that still has this tradition is Iceland which also happens to be the only country left that speaks the language of the vikings.
about the gag, i intended to have her gagged the whole time, but i wanted to have some fun before i got that far.
for the other things you mentioned... well you will get your answer during the conclusion of this story

thanks for the comment, glad you like it.
Part 2.
oh crap, they are back already? Marie started to get worried, what where they going to do with her?
she struggled all she could as she heard footstep coming from the stairs.
then she saw the face of Joar, the others where not with him.
now she had this weird feeling again, why did she feel like this when Joar was around?
"hey, the other told me to make sure you didn't escape yet while they are thinking of a way to punish you" he said and then removed her gag.
she spitted out the rag in her mouth "so you never really had a plan?"
"nope, you know how Jan is. he always goes by his impulses" Joar said and sat down on the floor.
Marie started to smile, she didn't want to but she just couldn't stop.
"what are you smiling for? you are tied up and probably about to be really humiliated"
"i don't know, i can't handle it" she said "so, are you going to free this time as well?"
"it depends," Joar got back up on his feet "remember that time when we left you on that island? i felt really guilty for being so cruel to you. and that time a year ago when we tied you up naked... it just wen't too far. i mean it's one thing to just capture you for a prank, but it's not funny when somebody risks getting hurt".
"MOOOOO" they heard one of the cows from downstairs.
"but why do you even hang around Jan and Jens if they are such idiots?" Marie had wondered about this a long time. she knew Joar didn't like doing all those silly things they used to do.
"i don't know, i just wanna be a part of the gang i guess"
Joar stared at Marie who looked right back into his clear blue eyes. they both had eye contact for a short time as they just where silent.
Marie was about to get up from the chair so she could go closer to him. but then she remembered one tiny detail. she was still tied up and unable to get off the chair.
suddenly Joar said "but i have to admit, Jan can really get on my nerves sometimes"
"really? how?"
"well, for an instance when he gets mad he has a tendency to get really close to my face and shout at me. and he has a really bad breath"
Marie couldn't hold it back, she started to laugh about the bad breath thing
"no, i'm serious. his breath is so bad that sometimes i want to stuff something in his mouth just to cover the smell".
Marie laughed even more and said "you know what you should do? carry a piece of soap around, and the next time he does you stuff the soap in his mouth".
now it was Joar's turn to laugh "that would be so hilarious, i imagine he would be angry enough to make Thor strike his hammer".
they both laughed some more, and then they stopped to catch their breath.
once again they had eye contact and Joar started to move closer to Marie where she was bound in a chair.
"i like that dress you are wearing" he suddenly said.
Marie started to blush and said "thanks, but it's called a tunic".
"oh well, it's not like the dresses every other girl in the village is wearing. i like how your legs are visible"
Marie blushed even more "really? you like my legs?"
"they are really..." that was all he managed to say before they heard the door open.
"oh crap, they are back" Joar said and stuffed the rag back in Marie's mouth "I'm sorry about this" he said and then tied the scarf around her head so she was gagged again.
"HEY MARIE!!! guess what we got planned for you?" Jan shouted as he came up stairs.
she stared at him with angry eyes.
"we are having a big surprise for you. Joar! come quick we are going to the sheep barn to get some scissors!!!" Jan shouted as he laughed loudly while walking downstairs.
Joar looked at Marie who seemed a little more scared now. what would they need sheep scissors for?
then he walked toward her and pulled out a knife from his belt.
Joar layed the knife in her lap on top of the tunic she was wearing and gave her a serious look "wait until i have closed the door" he said and then walked downstairs.
she heard the door being closed, and the only noises in the barn now was the cows.
he thinks i look pretty when i'm wearing a tunic she thought to herself.
and now his going to the barn with with Jan and Jens to get scissors...
"FIFFÅRS!!!" she shouted trough the gag and looked down at the dagger in her lap.
by Odin what where she waiting for, she had to get free NOW!
her arms where tied in front of her so she grabbed the knife and started to cut trough the ropes around her knees.
now her wrists weren't attached to her legs anymore so she could pull them out from the rope holding them down to her lap.
while she did she heard a clang on the floor that was no good. she dropped the knife.
her arms where tied around her elbows so she could at least bend her arms and remove the gag.
"BY FREYA" she said clearly stressed and started to bite over the knot that hold her wrists tied.
finally her wrists where untied. now it was just the ropes holding her upper and lower body to the chair including her arms around the elbows.
and of course the rope around her ankles.
she tried to struggle to get her arms out but the ropes where really tight.
"Odin help me" she and looked at the dagger that was laying on the floor.
she started to shake forward and backward until the chair tipped over.
"OUCH" she said.
she noticed knife in front her and reached her arm out to get it.
"YES" she got her hands on it and started cutting the rope that went around her upper body, the same rope that stretched under the chair seat and was tied around her feet.
now she only had to cut the rope around her lap and she was free from the chair, and then cut the rope around her ankles to be able to walk.
suddenly she heard the door open again "HEY MARIE, ARE YOU READY FOR A NEW HAIRCUT?!"
Marie quickly managed to cut the rope around her lap and got up, still having her feet tied at the ankles she jumped toward the edge of the floor where could see downstairs at the cows.
she heard them coming up stairs and thought "oh well, here goes nothing" and then jumped down from the edge and landed in the haystack.
she hided underneath the hay for a while. hopefully they would not look for her in there.
"WHERE IN THE NAME OF ODIN THOR LOKI FREYA IDUN FREY SIF AND HEL DID SHE GO!!!"
Jan seemed really shocked.
"look at the ropes, they have been cut" Joar said.
"NONONONONONONONONO NOOOOOOOOO!!! NOT AGAIN!!!"
Jan came running down the stairs as fast as he could and looked trough the door "WHERE IS SHE?!"
Jens and Joar came down as well "sorry Jan, she's probably on top of every hill by now"
"NOOOOOOOOOO" Jan shouted as he felt down on his stomach hand knocked his fists to the ground.
"IT'S NOT FAIR, IT'S NOT FAIR" he started to cry while still knocking his fist to the ground.
"WHAHAHAHAHAH".
Marie who was hiding in the haystack right next to him couldn't believe what a baby he was.
Jens and Joar grabbed the arms of Jan and helped him up as they walked out.
she then used the knife to cut trough the last rope that was around her ankles and walked back to the village.
Joar was the son of the blacksmith and when he got back to his home which was the same house as the blacksmith had his workshop he met Marie who was waiting outside.
"hey" she said.
Joar was surprised, what where she doing here?
"thanks, for helping me back there" she said.
"sure no problem"
"i got your knife back" Marie held out the knife she had borrowed "it's a good knife"
"thanks, i made it myself" Joar said and looked at it.
"you know what, you can keep it if you like... you know, just in case we tie you up again"
Marie was shocked "Really? but you made it yourself"
"exactly, i can make a new one" he said and took the sheath out of his belt "you can have this too, so you can carry it around easier".
"thanks" Marie was flattered.
"oh by the way, what a crybaby Jan is" she said.
"what? you where still in the barn?" now it was Joar's turn to be surprised.
"i was hiding in the haystack" Marie giggled "anyway..." she looked in to his eyes again and she started to realize why it always felt like her heart stopped and then pumped even faster every time she looked at Joar.
"thanks, for helping me... again" she turned around and took a few steps.
what the heck am i doing? she thought for her self and turned her head and saw that Joar was still looking at her as she walked away.
she stopped walking and had yet again eye contact with him.
"what?" he said as he looked back at her.
the midnight sun was clearly showing in the horizon behind her.
"oh by Thor's hammer" she said and walked back to him and kissed his cheek.
Joar's eyes widened and he started to blush. what just happened?
Marie then started to run away as she heard somebody shout "ALRIGHT!!!".
she giggled and went back home.
myth about vikings, vikings are known for being great warriors and merchants. before a battle they would eat fly agaric and drink mead. the combination of the poison from the mushroom and the alcohol from the mead would work like a drug and give them a huge strength and they would go crazy. though it made them stronger and better for battle it would also mean that the weakest that couldn't handle the poison would die before they even reached the battle.

Now I know where we got our word 'daughter' and 'son'. As you know, Vikings settled on England, on what is called the Danelaw, and many words in the English language came from the Scandinavian language as a result!
That was sweet of Joar. Reading this left me wondering why he hang out with those two idiots!
I think that cutting her hair would go way too far!!!!! Almost as bad as tying her naked to the tree. Good thing that Joar had the sense to give her the knife.
Maybe in the future, Joar would tie up Marie for "fun" instead of now where it was bullying? Would Marie like that?
By the way, in your fun fact, those warriors are called "Berserkers", right?

vikings didn't just settle on England they settled on Iceland, Greenland, France, Portugal, around the African coast and even in North America (take a hike Christopher Columbus).
and yes it is also true that a lot of English words comes from old Norse.
words like bait, bull, cake, egg, hell (originally Hel one of the Norse Goddesses), knife, and window just to mention a few of them.
also the words knot and band (as in rope) comes from Scandinavia
about Joar, i planned it already when i wrote the first story that he would be the typical good guy that just wants to be a part of the cool gang and blindly follows Jan's orders. i also planned at already at the start how Marie would have a crush for him.
what plans i have in the future for Joar and Marie... wait and see, i have already started planning my stories. everytime i get an idea for Marie Egildóttir's stories or Sarah and Mr Stratos i write them down on my mac to keep track on them
and yes, i think the berserker's would be the right name for vikings that went berserk after they had drugged themselves on poisonous mushroom and alcohol. even though most of them where merchants i don't blame the people of old Britain for calling them barbarians.
another fun myth is that nobody in Ireland had red hair before the vikings showed up
