     not original but my version of it

The day came and she knew she had to decide
her father was none other then King and her in
fact he was not here right now and was on his
own crusade at the moment and the Sheriff of
Nottenham put himself then in charge too of the
kingdom but making everyone's lives miserable
too but Lady Marion was not bother by the Sheriff
she wasn't about to let him treat her like he did the
rest of the kingdom,she then had her chores around
castle and her horse when she rode .

During her ride she often rode through the forest
her escape from the Sheriff or whatever was at the
moment troubling her ,she rode each day there not
just to be alone but she also wanted to see if there
in fact the legend was true ,about a group of men in
fact who gave up life in the kingdom to live here in
the forest stealing from those that would venture
through and giving the poor back their money.

You see the Sheriff raised taxes on everyone making
it harder for anyone too live and even more so paying
the Sheriff those that didn't were hung .But she wanted
to meet the man that lead this group of robbers as the
Sheriff had labeled them .

But Lady Marion was not deterred by anyone for that
matter let alone the Sheriff she knew as she rode the
king when he returned would take care of the Sheriff.

Now Lady Marion dress in her riding outfit,young and
to most men of the kingdom thought she was beautiful
almost  to beautiful to ask for her hand in marriage and
she smiled,there was one man that tried once,his name
Marion could not forget,his name was Robin .

She stop looking around thought she heard a sound . She
thought she saw something move but no, just that of her
own imagination working overtime she thought .

Then in her wildest imagination she never thought she in
fact would actually see him, but to there he was Robin with
a group of men he was leading,they did not see her but  the
sight of Robin bought back memories for Marion ,feelings in
fact she thought she got over but apparently she didn't .

She still had feelings for Robin .But how was she going too
let him know how she felt,it too would not be easy to say the
least and she wanted to so much tell him,she loved him .She
like Robin were trying to make it through this,at least until in
the King return to from wherever he was now.

King Richard had to come back,there was no way around that.
The Sheriff could not be left in charge of the kingdom not in the
way he was doing it,he had to be stop,and seeing Robin again,
she knew in her heart that he was the one too stop him .

' Robin,' she called his name .She felt for Robin from the first
time she saw and met him when they shook hands too .

Meanwhile not to far from Marion as she thinks about Robin
a man dressed up in a Sheriff's outfit and was sitting on his
own horse was thinking about Marion as he had sent his men
to the dredded Sherwood Forest too try and be rid of the Robin
Hood once and for all. Six men ought to do it too he thought .

But the Sheriff forgot one minor detail Robin was not alone in
Sherwood at this time Robin still only had a small group of men
and presently sitting around a burning camp fire thinking if the
Sherwood Forest would be their home from now on .

' I like it,' smiled Lil John rubbing his beard,' A lot of trees little
room to move around,tree houses are are to new homes I think,
unless their monkeys I doubt the Sheriff and his men ever climb
trees before. we could build like a boardwalk connecting each of
trees and ropes to be pulled in emergencies and I think with the
Sheriff around everyday is an emergency too.'

' I like it too,' agreed Robin,'Plenty of animals to choose from to
eat,fruit as well,good farm land so we can grow corn and make
our other favorite food,beer.'

And they all cheered.

' And not to mention the waterfall nearby where we can bathed
sometimes,' he looked at some of his men.

' A stream too that runs through the forest,' said one of his men
pointing at the stream ,' Fishing is good there.'

' We need more men though,' added Lil John ,' our group against
the Sheriff's army,and my love here,' he smiled looking at his wife,'
is expecting,' the group cheered again,' And she and our child need
to be safe,safety first,wouldn't you agree Robin? '

Robin nodded and suddenly felt uneasy .The last time he had felt in
fact uneasy was when King Richard had too go on his crusade too
and he felt his whole world betrayed or let down as well.
 

He went to the end of town and there  he had men that were working
on changing sword blades from their normal silver or iron to gold  .

He especially like one gold because he thought of nothing else but to
use it in a fight or duel with Robin .And in that fight he would win no
doubt about that,he would not let that hooded freak win ,not any more. 




 

end one shot idea . the characters are not mine
but I figure history wouldn't mind since Hollywood
done it so many times .Thought it be my turn .....
