The Daughters of Robin

A loud single cry rings through the night. It’s the cry of an infant. Then, another join the first. The cries echo around the wooden walls of the hanging village. But not any village the prince of thieves’. The crying rings on, then it stops. A head peeks out of one of the many huts. It scans the area and pops back in. thinking the coast is clear. Or so he thinks. Two of the three run into the hut across the rope woven bridge, and the last one stands guard outside of the one others ran to. Far down below, were two archers and the sheriff. The two archers lie sleeping. The men’s names are Jonathan and Eric Ice. Their body are covered in scar from the wars.  They had come out here every night since the dream. The man standing watch happen to see what is going on, and wakes the others, then leaves. The two whom ran in are Azeem and Robin... There are two, no four other people in the hut. A small candle is lit and, all of the people in the release a breath that nobody notice that they had been holding, for they see friendly faces among the group with in the dim light.  The people in the room are the Littles, the maiden Mary-Ann and her lady's maid, Beth. But there are new members to the group. The arrows are notched and ready to be fired. Two berry are clutch tightly in the hands of the archers. The berries are night lock you’ll be dead before you swallow.

“Reagan and Jane.” said Robin after a long, loud, discussion with Mary-ann...

Azeem Ask to lady Beth “Will you get Will?”

“Of course he will love to meet his new nieces! “ The first arrow is released the aim was true until he move the arrow was forced into his shoulder he release a scream, just as lady Beth was coming to get him. The second arrow was released at that moment that she came through the door she fell back into the room bloody and gasping. Everybody went into shock expect Robin and Azeem... After they slowly inch their way out. Robin notched his bow with a white feathered arrow but Azeem was trying to stop him stop and said “Robin, look they no long breath.”

    But he took notice of the two dead men and released the arrow into a shadowy figure. It went in and came out black as the heart that he shot at.  

    The figure cackled evilly have and said, “Have you figured what I am Robin? No? Well here a hint.” As he steps out of the shadows. “I have a prophecy for you! Until you and your heirs are lying in your deathbed, I will not rest.” Then the dead ghostly form of the ex-sheriff, George, disappeared. Robin crawls to Will, the arrow is in his shoulder, and he will live but will have shoulder pain. In the morning Lady Beth’s body is cremated and the ashes spread out into the winds.

    “Mary-Ann you know i love you with all my heart but I don’t want you to get hurt”-

“Robin I know. I’ll take Jane her name will be change as will mine. “

“All right Mary”

    As they walk back to the nursery. Mary-Ann just had finished packing her stuff and went to get Jane. They had just finished the climb up the ladder when they noticed a small fiery glow seem to dance round the children. Mary-Ann cried out in fear for it look like the curse had come true.   

Then voices ring out in many tone some in love other in comfort and worry and they spoke saying “Do not fear most beloved ones you have been chosen to be the parents of the champions of the gods.”

    “There is one god and only one, and him follow him” cried Robin overcome his fear.

    “But you are wrong there are many gods but we are the most important, we are the council of twelve!”

“Umm. . . . Athena off task? Called a strong but worn voice.

“Oh, sorry my lord” nicked aloud voice that seem to make the hair on the back of Robin’s neck stand.
