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

STILL UNDER EDITING BECAUSE I AM TRASH Linda of Nottingham has a problem: she's living in hell. Her father has over looked her ever since his failed mission in the Holy Land, blaming her in the process, her best friend who she considered to be her sister is dead, and the Prince-the very man who had her mother killed-is coming. Yay. Guy, however, feels worse. He's been to the Holy Land before, but this time it went bad... like really bad. He killed the one person in his life he could not live without, the Sheriff is putting even more pressure on him than before, and the Prince was coming and demanded so much of him. But he finds his heart has twisted. In fact, they both do... for each other. But how long will it take for them to find out, and will they still be alive by the time everything rolls through?

Golden Arrow by KayJaf

Robin is just like any other teenage girl. She loves to run, hang with her friends, and is obsessed with her cell phone. Oh, and she's known by her city as The Hood, the mysterious figure that takes down those that are corrupt and wealthy with the help of her merry men - her three computer genius friends that are expert hackers. Her current target? Richard Sherwood, CEO of Sherwood Innovations. He has a net worth of multiple billions (exact amount unknown) and has been grooming his son to be the heir to his empire. Oh, and he happens to be involved in the death of Robin's parents and the disappearance of countless other innocents in the city. So, what's a girl to do? Stand back and watch a selfish, malevolent man take down the city with his bare hands? No. She's going to steal from the rich and give back to the poor, of course. But even though she has her secret weapon, Golden Arrow, and her tech savvy best friends, stealing from the most powerful man in the city from his Sherwood Tower office building is much easier said than done. *** This is my entry for the Once Upon Now, Target//Wattpad Contest.

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."

Aiming Straight, Aiming True. by JordanLofts

Arena is no ordinary girl, she is Robin Hood's only daughter. Left to be raised by a farmer and his wife, Arena lives a farming life. The only thing she doesn't understand is her locket which she has had ever since birth. She doesn't question it though, thinking it was her birth present. But Arena is different, her senses are much stronger than her family's, she's the best hunter around her area and her fighting and archery skills are amazing. When she meets a mysterious boy who is with the prince and then the prince himself, she questions who she is? Her simple life is turned upside down when she is offered something any girl would die for. She turns it down and both the prince and the prince's best friend and royal hunter aka the mysterious boy, are intrigued by the girl with the green eyes and the perfect aim. They both befriend her and as she gets closer to both boys from different worlds, she is closer to finding out who she really is and her mother. Robin Hood learns of what is unfolding with his daughter and rushes back to save her. If it means getting caught to save his daughter from a fate he himself nearly fell into, than so be it. He promised her mother she would never be apart of that world even if it meant that Arena's mum could never see her daughter again. This is a story where sometimes it's not always a good idea to be apart of two very different worlds.

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.*

A Time Traveling Fairytale by ElsaS7

Fate leads those who are willing but must push those who are not. One might interpret this saying a bit too literal. After all, Elena did end up on the bottom of a hill in the middle of a forest, suffering several injuries. But do not worry, fate loves a rebel and has something magical stored for our sarcastic heroine. Time travel. An adventure in the 16th century was not something our main character had in mind, but when her path is built with music and joy, it can't be that bad, right? Oh, who am I kidding. . . At first glance, it seemed to be the perfect fairytale for our main character; being able to experience the medieval time and be surrounded by enchantment wherever she went. She even meets a monk, blessed with the gift of music, who shares her passion and is willing to teach Elena the secrets of the piano. It's perfect. But it was only the tip of the iceberg. Elena's piece of tranquility is broken when she stumbles into another mess, leaving her caged and alone in the forest. Fortunately for our heroine, a prince crosses her path, helping her in her need. One might see this as the Universe's way for entertainment, or the fate's bizarre tactics to bring people together. Whatever it might be, it did not stop Elena from catching the eye of the prince of a powerful kingdom. Before anyone knows what's even happening, they're caught in the middle of it all; like a cat trapped in a yarn. After all, even the stone you trip on is a part of your destiny. What happens when the Universe, and basically everything between hell and heaven, is against you? Simple: it's a journey filled with unforgettable events. So buckle up, folks, because you are in for a ride of pirates, songs, chases, jokes, and a broken soul. After all, there is no flying from fate.

Guy of Gisborne - This Changing Life by jwenova

A Sir Guy of Gisborne story. Loosely based on the BBC story of Robin Hood, using characters that I have grown attached to. I own no rights to the BBC show,(sadly) but wanted to add a bit of fan fic to see what response I would get. Sir Guy of Gisborne, Princess Kes and Robin of Locksley are friends as children. Their future is still to be told.
