An Orphan Worth Fighting For

Meeting up with Guy

  A week of me being here and learning everyone's names and what they do and I'm amazed from what I hear. Where were these people all my life? After ten minutes of silence and just sitting around with no one saying anything, we all see a woman running toward us but doesn't seem to be stopping, much less slowing down. Before anyone knows it she bolts right past the camp and we all look at each other curiously expecting someone to speak up claiming they know who she is, but no one does.

  "She seems to have been running like her life depended on it, I wonder why?" I ask.

  "Your guess is as good as mine Raelynn. In fact it's as good as anyone's around here." Will says. He does have a good point though. A minute later the man on the black horse stops in front of the camp.

  "Well if it isn't Guy who has nothing better to do than to chase after a poor innocent girl." Robin says with a smile on his face.

  "And you with a girl whom the sheriff has been chasing after for a year." Guy says back.

  "Well your one with the quick comebacks." I say. He looks at me and a smile. Well he already knows I'm with these guys so I don't see why I have to keep my mouth shut.

  "So you finally decide you want to be with outlaws. Got tired of being in Nottingham I see." Guy says. He looks to me and realizes I haven't told anyone where I ran from and smiled even bigger. "Though I'm not concerned that a younger outlaw has found her way to a group of other outlaws I am looking for a woman." He continued.

  "Says every man ever." I remarked with a smile and everyone scoffed. "Your in the wrong place if you're looking for a woman Guy. There's more women in Nottingham than there are here." By this time everyone exept Guy is struggling not to laugh as I'm smiling more.

  "I mean the woman who came somewhere around here." Guy finally says.

  "Oh that woman yeah she went that way." I point to a completely different direction than where she actually  went. And not a second later he leaves in the diretion I pointed to.

  "He actually fell for that." Robin says extremely surprised.

  "Well when you've learned how to make lies sound true people tend time fall for them, so I'm not surprised he believed that woman went that way." I say.

  "Your good." Djack remarks.

  "Eh well wouldn't be the first lie I told him that he fell for, or the sheriff though the sheriff is a bit harder to lie to and still get away with it." I say. Everyone nods in agreement. That meet up with Guy was a lot shorter and went way better than I was thinking it would be. I don't know what the big deal though why me lying to him and believing it was. That part doesn't make any sense.
