This is the story of Aylaina MacLeod, aTime Traveler.  When Aylaina makes her maiden voyage into time, she quickly realises she has gone BACK in ttime to the 12th century, and Sherwood Forest, the Robin Hood era.  But the Robin Hood legend she discovers, is not like any other legend she has ever read about.  Follow along as Aylaina becomes part of the Merry Men and the mischief she gets into as she tries to make her mark on history.

I have incorporated the final two episodes of the BBC series that aired in 2009.  "Something Worth Fighting For"
My objective was to put right what once went wrong by sending a young woman from the fuqture to change history.

If you are expecting a dark, Twighlight-like Guy, youwere'll be a bit disappointed.  My 'Guy' is a tortured soul, yes, brooding , yes, but he has a side that comes out upon meeting the heroine.  I believe you will recognise the character as Richard Armitage portrayed him and I believe I have captured the personalities of the other characters from the series.

My heart-felt thanks and appreciation go out to my marvelous betas, Fanny Thornton and Tully2Shoes for all their hard work in trying to teach me the art of creative writing, grammar and punctuation!  Much love to the two of you&lt;3   Jeannie

A Flower for Guy #Wattys2021 by LadyAngelEnglish

Sir Guy of Gisborne comes back from the Holy Land, on his conscience the knowledge of having killed Marian. Appointed Sheriff of Nottingham in the place of Vaisey, he struggles to find a way to make up for his past wrongdoings, but it's a very hard task. Guy meets again - after many years - Lady Violet of Chetwood, a childhood friend of Robin Hood; the widow of a man who mistreated her, the young woman has returned to her ancestral mansion and has always helped her friend Robin since he has been declared an outlaw, and therefore she's not well-disposed towards Guy, whom she knows since she was a child. Complicated dynastic events, however, will force her to approach precisely the black-clad knight for a marriage of convenience...

There and back again, a journey to love. by Glynis779

"Here is the first part of my short(ish) story about the wonderful Sir Guy of Gisborne. I have written it because I always felt he was a bit shortchanged by the storylines, and the ladies, in the BBC Series, and I wanted to try to redress the balance. As someone once said, "it is a poor thing, but mine own". You will find magic, time spinning, love, loss, and a large dose of naughtiness, which I hope does not offend." " Ihope you enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing it." "For fun, I have inserted some excerpts from some of Richard's other work, I hope you enjoy looking for them." "I write solely in honour of Richard Armitage, who brought the character to life for me, and is now firmly planted in my heart and soul. There could be no better inspiration. All others are a pale imitation."

Lifeline ⤞ Peter Pevensie [Chronicles of Narnia] by -rvbinhood

"Part of her mystery Is how she is calm in the storm And anxious in the quiet." Fallon Hunter has a name that speaks for itself. Or, at least, that's what Professor Kirke had always told her. Having been with the professor from a young age, the girl was never told what had happened to her parents, nor who they were, making her extremely curious, but highly sceptical. She only believes what she can see. But when the war comes and she gets unexpected guests, she finds out that not everything is quite as it seems. - "She can be quite... frustrating." "I heard that!" - "Have you tried going in there?" "It's always closed, and there's no lock on the door. Do you expect me to just walk through the wood?" - "Stop giving me puppy eyes and walk." - "Do you believe me now?" - "Are you crying?" "No, my eyes are just mimicking the damn river." - "We'll get out of this, I promise." "Never make promises you can't keep." - "Together?" "Together." UNDERGOING EDITING

Fight For Your Fairytale [Regina & Robin||OUaT] by kalli_spera

A different story of Outlaw Queen, where Robin and Regina are both outlaws. He and his merry men steal from the rich to give to the poor, while Regina is trying to escape a hard time at home. When they find themselves in a different land, Oz, they have to fight to get to their goal. Their happy ending, their fairytale. Will they eventually find it? Read to find out. UPDATE: It's 2019 and I'm almost 20 so this story really makes me cringe. I'm glad so many people have read it though. I hope you excuse my bad writing, thank you.

NOT ROYALE ENOUGH [18+] by whathepeach

It was like every nerve in my body had come alive, every inch of me buzzing, aching for something more. I could feel his chest brush against mine with every shallow breath I took, and the way he whispered made my legs weak. That voice-dark, smooth-was quickly becoming my favorite sound. I swallowed hard, my head spinning. "Chris..." He leaned in, his lips so close they almost touched mine, his breath hot against my skin. "What's a mistake, Sarah?" I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. Every Word I had planned, every but of resolve I thought I had, shattered under the weight of his gaze. This was wrong. I knew it. But I didn't want him to stop. Not now. ***** 25 year old Sarah Wayne has debts, a lot of it probably because her father owns a lot of people leaving her to help him even though they lost touch.

A Royal Affair by MackenzieWinner

Queen Regina of Mist Haven is slowly losing hope that she will ever be able to marry for love. Almost every aspect of her life is controlled, especially when it comes to her friends and possible love interests. It also doesn't help that the media portrays her as an Evil Queen who only cares about herself, focused more on living lavishly than caring about her people. She finds the only men willing to date the Evil Queen are more interested in her crown than her. And then Robin Locksley becomes her new assistant and she believes in love at first sight, wondering if maybe her happy ending is possible after all. Robin is grateful for his job at the palace even if it means working with the Evil Queen herself. His plan is to work as her assistant for a year to prove himself and then transfer to another department within the palace. But his worldview is shaken and he realizes that things aren't always what they seem, especially when it comes to Queen Regina. As he starts to see her for who she really is, his feelings for her deepen into something dangerous. Intrigue, romance and danger swirl around Robin and Regina as they fight for their happily ever after.

A Series of Unfortunate Events One Shots by ShwahGamer

Dunclet, Kladora, and Figley! Trying my hand at making some one shots. Any number of characters are able to be included. Uses details from both the books and the tv show. Rated T for swearing, and occasional adult humor. If you see a one shot with this marker "Universe*" that means it is canon to How It Should Have Been and The Daring Rescue Mission, both of which are part of my universe. If a one shot does NOT have the marker, then it is a STAND ALONE story. *Disclaimer: I do not own A Series of Unfortunate Events. This is merely a fanfic.*
