An Orphan Worth Fighting For

The return back

  By the time we got into Nottingham with Sammy, everyone seemed to be in chaos. There are people who are getting beat by the guards every which way. We were all frozen in shock about it. Sammy and I seemed to be the only ones who knew why the guards were doing this in the first place, the others seemed clueless. We both looked at each knowing exactly what we're both thinking without saying anything. While the group stood there in utter shock, Sammy threw a rock at the head of one of the guards we both started running in two different directions.

  We both knew this wasn't the best idea but it was either this or let innocent people get beaten or die. As I ran I led the guards who were after me into the forest trying to figure out a way to lose them. As soon as we entered the forest I remembered there was a part of it that had a whole bunch of traps laid out in case a situation like this ever happened. By the time I got to the other end of all the traps I stopped and turned around to see that all the guards were either killed or stuck. Just before I started heading back I heard a yell and I found that Sammy had been trapped in a net.

  "How's it hanging Sammy?" I say jokingly.

  "This is no time for your horrible puns Rae." Sammy says.

  "Ok that was the best one I thought of." I fake pout.

  "Ok can you at least get me down?"

  "Alright but this is going to hurt." I say as I cut Sammy down.

  He looked at me not knowing what to say and before anything could be said, I start walking back to Nottingham as Sammy trails behind. When we got back, it was a lot more calm when Robin and everyone else and I arrived back. We both checked to make sure everyone was doing ok before we headed to the group.

  "That was the most idiotic idea you both have thought of." Robin said.

  "It was better than everybody being tormented than the guards, trust me we knew exactly what we were doing." Sammy answered before I could say anything.

  "But do you know what would happened to you both, much less-"

  "Robin we're both fine, I'm alive and still in one piece and so is Sammy." I interrupted.

  "That was still completely dangerous." Robin said raising his voice.

  "Robin no one said we always came up with the greatest ideas." Sammy explained as I nodded in agreement.

  "Wait where are all the guards?" Djack asked.

  Everyone had the same curious look on their faces when the question was asked.

  "They are either dead or trapped by a net. I set up traps for when a situation like this one came up. I knew they would be useful at one point." I answered.

  "Clever one aren't you." Marian said.
