Okay hope you enjoy.

*Brenda of Locksley*

Brenda's POV:

There is a man trying to cross the river in Sherwood forest. We have set a trap for him and he is now in the river.

Will wanting a joke has to say something or rather sing it.

"There was an old man from Nottingham,

who tried to cross the river,

oh what a dope, he tripped on a rope,

Oh look at him shiver."

I smile at my brothers antics. Will had become quite protective of me lately.

"BEG FOR MERCY RICH MAN!!" Will continues.

I stay at the back where I cannot see his face but the minute I hear his voice I know who it is.

"I beg of no man," the voice says oh no its Robin.

Suddenly little John and the other men come out of hiding wanting to fight. I step out with my brother who pulled my hand.

"Well this here is our river," Will said to Robin. "And any man who wishes to cross must pay taxes."

Robin steps towards us and when he glances at me he freezes for a second. Oh god please tell me he does not know.

"I will pay no tax," Robin says. "As you can see I have nothing. Not even my sword."

"BOLLOCKS!!" John says from the other side of the rives. "Any man who travels with two servants and claims he's got no bloody money is either a fool or a liar."

"Yeah he's a liar!!" Will yells.

"Who are you?" Robin asks John.

"John Little!!" John says to him. "Best man of the woods. Hey lads?"

Everyone cheers but I glance at the two men he was with. One is Duncan. But for some reason he has a cloth over his eyes.

Robin glances from all the men to me. "Well best man, do you lead this rabble?"

I do not take my eyes off of his. I know now that he knows who I am.

"Yes I do mate," John says and he also glances at me. "And if you toss-pots want to travel through Sherwood Forest, its going to cost you.... that gold medallion."

I glance at my brothers chest to see that he is wearing fathers medallion. So he did visit the castle.

Rob grabs it and holds it in his fist. Then he looks up.

"This is sacred to me," he tells John.

"Its sacred to us too matey," John says. "That there will feed us for a blooming month."

"You'll have to fight me for it," Robin says.

I sigh. Does it always have to come to fighting with Robin. Thats why he wanted to join the crusades.

"Love to mate," John says and tosses his stick to Robin.

Robin catches it but I know for a fact he does not know how to use it. A bow and Arrow is his choice of weapon just like mine.

"Be careful father," Wulf says heading over to his father and passing him the stick. "He walloped 12 of the sheriff's men."

I watch as Robin recognizes Wulf. Again he glances at me as Wulf joins my side.
