SURVIVORS
Chaptre 50. Viking Ship
That morning Indra decided to go with Leon to check the area of corn crops found yesterday. They left immediately after breakfast because it was quite far away.
Marianne said her plan was to inspect the open fields they were passing through to pick some herbs there. Indra assigns Michael to accompany Marianne.
Others will remain at the shelter continuing to make bricks, weaving willow baskets and looking for seashells buried in beach sand.

Marianne returns with a basket full of flowers and herbs when the sun is at the top of her head. Toni collects quite a lot of shells on the beach. Silvia still made salt because the salt was already used Baras to marinate the fish obtained that morning.
Liam, Niken and Angel look cool playing mud while chatting. Doctor Chandra sat in front of the shelter weaving a basket of willow twigs. None of it has been made yet.
Suddenly we heard a scream from the beach. Michael ran towards the cliff to see. Toni pointed towards the sea while shouting.
"Ship. Vessel. There's a ship!" toni shouted while pointing towards the sea.
Michael watched the high seas. There was a sailboat there. Immediately he shouted towards the shelter.
"At sea there's a sailboat!" michael's successful shout left everyone aghast and immediately ran to the edge of the cliff to take a look. Their eyes sparkled with hope.
"Hey, yesterday Robert said to be careful if there are ships anchored here. Quickly call Toni back before they see her," doctor Chandra reminded as he stood up from his seat.
"Isn't there a ship we can ask for help?" ask Laras not understand.
"Robert's warning wasn't playful. She must have her own concerns" Marianne agreed.
"Toni, stop. Hurry back!"
The screams of his friends were not heard by Toni. He was even more eager to give a sign to the ship to be seen, because he thought his actions had support. 'There's a ship, they'll be rescued soon' he thought happily.
Before long it seemed a small boat was dropped from the ship and paddled to the beach.
Liam had noticed the sailboat with furrowed brows.
"Is it not strange, there are large sailing ships with such flags in this day and age?" ask Liam who he knows.
The question made everyone pay attention to the ship again.
"That's a wooden ship whose model is very old. While in today's times, a yacht of that size usually belongs to the navy of a country, specifically for festivals and stops in other countries as a sign of friendship. They'll put up their country's flag clearly." Niken answered while thinking hard.
"Hidden. Hurry along!" doctor Chandra gave the order and immediately followed everything with a buzzer.
They hide from behind trees and shrubs near cliffs. Pay attention more clearly when the boat containing 5 people gets closer to the beach. Toni doesn't scream anymore. He looked confused by the appearance of those people.
"Look off their hats!" Marianne looked surprised. Face pias.
"There's horns. Like in the movies what's that.." Niken again thought hard, but did not manage to remember anything.
"Vikings!" murmured Liam rigidly.
"Well?!" Everyone was shocked and peeked back to the beach.
The boat has landed. The men approached Toni who retreated until she fell in the sand. A long sword was directed at him. It made all the team members who were anxious so surprised and frightened.
"Go. Get the fuck out of here. Or we'll die." Marianne quickly moved away from the cliff.
"Dok, you're so much needed on the team, so you have to survive and get the women to Indra's place" Michael quickly made up his mind.
"Liam, you escort the women and Dr. Chandra. Go to where you're looking for wood. Find Indra and Leon. Hurry, before they get up here." Michael told everyone to hurry up.
"Hey, bring all your bags, don't make those people feel like there's a lot of people here. Bring the fish for your supplies later," said Marianne.
"You're not with Marianne?" ask Laras wonder.
"No. Let me be here. I'm old, they won't do anything bad. Go quickly," said Marianne.
"Don't forget to bring a spear. We'll keep them here so you have enough time to hide." Michael looked strong.
"Aahhhh! Toloooong." There was a scream of pain on the beach.
Michel crawled towards the cliff to find out what was happening. He panicked immediately.
"Go now! They've hurt Toni" he said in a panic. Drawn to the top of the rope which is usually used as a ladder to go down the cliff.
Everything was pouring into the forest, away from the shore. Liam took the group to safety.
"Are Vikings dangerous?" ask Angel in a disjointed voice due to running.
"Or maybe we who cross time go into their era? Oh my God!" Angel suffocating.
"Sstttt. You're this. Do you want to be found out with them? Don't scream dong," grumbled Silvia in fear. They kept running after Liam.

Marianne and Michael peek at the beach situation. Toni who has been beaten until it bleeds and falls actually pointed towards the cliff.
"Damn this Toni. He showed us our place. Did you intentionally harm us?" maki Michael is upset about Toni's attitude.
"Heh, no wonder anyway. It's cowardly and only looking for safety and profit on its own if the opportunity arises" Marianne said.
Marianne remembers Toni's attitude when they first gathered after the plane crashed. Marianne always felt Toni was not a commendable person. Now only he could sacrifice another team member after being beaten by an unknown person. Real coward.
Michael digested Marianne's words. 'Did anything happen before that I don't know?' it was Michael who was astonished to see the dislike clearly on Marianne's face.
"Ah.. Please, sick. My friends are there. Yeah, I'll show you. Ow.." Toni fell face down on the sand after being hit by a kick.
"He's coming, Marianne. What do we do?" Sweat was clearly on Michael's forehead.
"I'm ready to be a shield here. You can go catch up with Liam if you want" Marianne replied.
"All right, we're holding on here." Michael got up and took the spear. He wouldn't give up without a fight.
"Hey, you guys. These guys from the ship are looking for you. Here quickly down." Toni shouted out.
Marianne and Michael looked at each other furiously. 'That guy really doesn't have a brain' Michael's inner being growled.
"Are you stupid? Even bring them here." said Marianne who appeared on the cliff.
Under the cliff, the strangers shouted loudly with incomprehensible language. They again wounded Toni with his sword. But Marianne just looked coldly.
"Please, they hurt me" Toni groaned. Blood poured out from some sword stab wounds he received.
"They're fighters. You want me to fight them?" tease Marianne cynical.
Marianne continued to pay attention to the people below. Wait, he sure saw 5 people in the boat. But under the cliff there were only 4 people including Toni. 'Where are the others?' thought Marianne while looking all over the beach.
Bruk!
Suddenly there was the sound of something being hit and collapsing to the ground. Marianne turned to the origin of the voice with the spear firmly grasped. Michael fainted with a bloody head lying not far from the fireplace.
It was the two strangers missing from Marianne's sight. It turns out they took another path to reach the shelter and ambush Michael.
Marianne ran up to Michael.
"Michael, can you hear me? Michael!" marianne asked as she tried to turn Michael's body upside down. Marianne looked at the person who hit her angrily.
"What are you doing! Bajing**!" Marianne was furious.
But that guy doesn't care. He stepped to the edge of the cliff and shouted some foreign words. Then he also found the stairs that Michael pulled. The ladder was thrown back down.
While the other one checked the two shelters and ruffled the contents. Even the pottery work of Angel and Niken also did not escape the target of the sword.
Before long Toni appeared followed by 3 strangers behind her. Marianne looked at Toni with a fierce look as if to say that this was the result of her actions. Toni lowered her head after seeing the motionless Michael with blood pouring from her head.
"You're babing** coward. You moron!" marianne shouted right in front of Toni.
"Even Alex is far more emboldened to face danger to protect her lover," scathing Marianne sneered. Toni looked down and didn't know what to say.
Plakk!
Marianne suddenly fell motionless in front of Toni who was instantly deathly pale.
'These savages were really rude, women were beaten as well. I should be able to take heart and persuade if I don't want to die like the two of them' Toni thought trying to make sense.
The strangers stood around Toni while observing. One of them sat down and tasted the breakfast scallops in a pot by the fireplace. He seems to like it. Toni felt there was a chance of survival and then tried to show another shell that had not been cooked.
"Here, there's still fresh clams. I'll look for it again if you want" cried Toni as she showed me the basket where the shells were kept.
The person looked happy and tried to eat raw shellfish but became annoyed at being covered in shells.
"It's not. It has to be cooked before it is eaten" Toni said, pointing back and forth at the shells and fireplaces. But the man looked even more upset because he did not understand anything.
