Ha Ha! Right here we go this is my second fanfic to date so don't expect great things. Oh and by the way for anybody who read my first story I have put in another pagan OC but it's a different person this time and a different type of paganism. Set post season two so spoilers. So without further ado on with the story.

The forest was cold but she didn't notice. She was too focused on her task. Although the chain mail and leather jerkin were quite good insulators. Then she froze on the spot. The freshly fallen autumn leaves crunched under some ones feet that were not hers and then the world turned black.

When she woke she was bound to something. It was broad and rough, a tree, a bloody tree. One day she'd been in Nottinghamshire and she was tied to a tree! Then she heard voices.

"Well what do we do with her? She's only a lass and she's dressed like a warrior from one of my Mother's stories." Wait a minute she knew that voice. It was one of the A Dale brothers. It was Allan.

She lifted her head it was heavy. She squinted in the midday sun. She looked around. Before her stood four men. One was tall and had a long staff while beside him stood two of similar height. Then next to them Allan A Dale.

"Oi A Dale." She shouted.

"How d'you know my name?" Replied a confused Allan.

"Look at my hands." She said by way of answer. Cautiously he walked up to her and looked at both her hands, one was normal but the other bore a scar that mirrored the one on his own hand.

"Seren!" He whispered.

"Allan" she whispered back as he cut the rope that bound her to the oak. He flung his arms around her and twirled her around. "I thought you were dead." They stayed locked in their embrace for a long time, tears streaming down both their faces. The gang looked in confused at the scene that was unfolding before them. Surely she could not be a lover she looked no more than fourteen years old but the two were obviously very close. Questions had to be answered but it would have to be later.

They gang returned to the camp late that night. It had taken all of Allan's persuasive powers to convince the lads that Seren was trustworthy. Especially after what happened the last time they allowed someone to do with Allan join the gang. Eventually though Allan won and Seren was allowed to come back to the camp.

Once they were all fed the questions began.

So that's chapter one done. Do you think I should continue? Please review and let me know.
