Okay, so Robin and Marian have had a baby, but just when Marian is pregnant, he goes off to war with his mate, Much. So she raises the daughter on her own.

This is the story of Rosa Fitzwalter and how when her dad comes back he turns her world upside down. So except for her dad turning up out of the blue, her new gang (The Outlaws) and the schools bully's gang (The Black Knights), the fit new boy in school, who just happens to be one of the most annoying too, her best friend's life being just as bad and the world going mad around her, everything is just fine for 15 year old, trying to hold on to my hormones but it's getting hard, Rosa Fitzwalter.

Just a one-shot, I'm not sure where it's gonna go.

Rosa Fitzwalter glanced at the clock in her maths room for the 100th time that day. Just three minutes left. Two minutes.One!

The joyful sound of the bell echoed through Mary Webb school. Rosa sighed with relief, grabbing her books and rushing out of the classroom. She dodged her way in and out of the crowds. Suddenly a hand landed on her shoulder,

"Do you want any help with your books?" honestly, how cheesy could you get? Rosa thought to herself, as she spun around, fixing a smile on her face.

The eager face of Crage Gisbourne was pushing into hers.

"Hi Crage," She said suppressing a sigh and trying to get away in the crowd "Sorry, I've got to go, I'm meeting Lucy by the lockers!" and with that, she took her leave.

Xxx

Lucy Miller glared down at her watch again as she stood by the lockers. It had gone half past and Rosa still wasn't here. Lucy wasn't surprised, Rosa was always late. Either day dreaming or getting held up by that pest Crage Gisbourne. As Rosa came running around the corner she decided it was the latter.

"Hey," she greeted as Rosa stormed right into her.

"Hey!" Rosa replied breathlessly.

"Waylaid again?" she asked with sympathy.

"Don't even go there!" Rosa snarled as they made their way down the main street that went past the school.

"Why don't you just tell him to back off?" Lucy asked.

"Can't," she repied "My mum is friends with his dad. Don't know what she sees in him really..."

"Why? What's up with him?"

"Let's just say the phrase 'like father, like son' is ironically correct here."

Lucy shuddered at the thought of two Crages. She tried to imagine his dad "What like, big leather jackets, full of himself, puts too much grease in his hair? That sort of thing?"

Rosa grinned a cocky grin, "You got it my friend!" she exclaimed, flinging her arm around her friend's shoulder.

Lucy smiled putting her arm around Rosa's shoulder and ruffling her curly mousy/brown hair like she was doing to her ginger hair.

Little did the two laughing girls know that they were being watched by two other boys.

"I'm not being funny, right, but you have fallen- hard." Said the first boy with a cheeky grin and ruffled ginger/brown hair, using his father's age old expression.

"I know," the second groaned, leaning back on the wall next to them. It was the way her eyes twinkled, the way she tossed her ginger hair.

"Caleb Scarlett, you need to ask that chick out, before anyone else does!" lectured the first boy, a twinkle in his eye.

"Adam A-Dale, don't you dare!" Caleb exclaimed.

"Ehh, I'm just messin' with ya!" Adam replied cheekily.

Xxx

"Luce, have you had a bump to the head, your turn is that way." Rosa pointed out.

"Ehh, I don't care." Lucy shrugged.

Rosa stopped and spun her friend around to face her "Luce I was just kidding, but are you feeling okay."

"Fine!"

Rosa looked at her. This wasn't the normal, caring Lucy, the Lucy who had always been there to get her out of trouble. "What about Eve?" she asked, softly.

"Mum will cope." Lucy shrugged again.

"Lucy, what's wrong?" Rosa asked.

"It's just mum. She's been a little on edge lately. Not sleeping, jumping when the doorbell rings and-and talking about dad..." she whispered the last bit.

"Oh Luce," Rosa pulled her friend into a hug. One of the many things they had in common was the lack of a father. She knew Lucy was much more sensitive about the subject than she was.

As if to pull the two girls out of a dream, shouting was heard around the next corner. Rosa put a finger to her mouth and the two crept around the corner. The sight that met them was not an uncommon one.

Davina Vasey and her small gang were gathered around a small skinny girl with long brown hair and another girl with short brown hair and green eyes was trying desperately to get the girl back from them. Rosa felt her rage build up and before Lucy or herself knew it she had pushed herself up and was marching towards the gang.

"Rosa!" Lucy hissed, but once she got no reply she reluctantly got up and followed. Trying to copy Rosa's confident swagger and failling miserably.

"Hi! Davina!" Rosa spat out the name, standing right behind her. Davina span around and received a sharp punch where the neck meets the chin. She creased up in pain and bent down. Rosa pulled her around so that she could see the back of her legs. Without a second thought she delivered a sharp kick to the back of her knees.

Rosa glared at the rest of the gang, who had stopped the beating to stare at their leader, practically daring them to try and fight her. They didn't and just stared at her as the unbeaten girl of the other two picked up her friend and the four of them stalked away.

Xxx

Rosa put her finger to her lips as the 4 of them sneaked around the back of the house.

"May I ask what you are doing Rosa?" asked a voice from behind them.

Rosa winced and turned around, fastening a sweet smile to her lips. "Nothing mum," she trilled sweetly.

Marian sighed and shook her head at her daughter and her three friends. "If you want to get inside there is a door." She quipped and, after nodding at her daughter's friends turned and went inside.

She chuckled softly to herself as she wiped the surface of the kitchen counters. She reminded her so much of Robin, it was ironic. Her friends were all children of the old gang. It was funny how things turned out...

Meanwhile Rosa sat the small long haired girl on the sofa in her room. Lucy handed her the first aid kit that was always on the side of a tabletop somewhere.

"What are your names?" she asked gently.

"I'm Mira," said the un-beaten girl "and this is Mary."

"Nice to meet you," Rosa said "I'm Rosa and this is Lucy."

Then she set about patching Mary up. Now she was pretty glad she had listened to all the medical advise her Aunty Djaq had given her when she was younger.

Xxx

Rosa smiled as she watched the two girls go off. Mary was now all patched up and after they had got to know each other and exchanged mobile numbers. She glanced at the clock on the wall and then at Lucy who was sitting at the kitchen table. Her mum had tactfully removed herself to the study.

"Hadn't you better be getting home Luce?" she asked softly.

Lucy nodded stiffly and got up.

When they got to the door Rosa squeezed her arm. "You call me if you need to talk yeah? If I don't pick up, just come 'round. You know you're always welcome here!"

She smiled at Lucy and she managed to smile back. "See you then," she replied and walked out the door backwards, waving. Rosa smiled bemused at her friend, still not used to her old habit, that she had perfected.

But as she went back in and closed the door, her smile faded. There was something up with her. Lucy wasn't the type of person to tell you her problems. She would just wait until she was ready to tell you, or you asked.

Sighing she went upstairs and poked her head around the door of the office.

"Hey mum," she said, stepping in.

"Well, it's my daughter. This is a surprise!" Marian joked turning around.

"Hi to you too!" she quipped back.

"What was all that about?" Marian asked.

"What?" she tryed to sound innocent

"One of those girls looked pretty hurt!"

"Well..."

"What have you done?"

"Nothing!"

"Have you been in a fight?!"

"Not properly."

"What?!"

"Well these people were beating up Mary, and so I just tactically diverted them!"

"Huh!" Marian muttered "just like your father."

Rosa glared at her and stormed out of the door.

Xxx

Rosa sat in her room, doing the normal thing a 15 year old would do when confined to their room, play loud music and surfing the web.

There was a knock at the door. She ignored it, letting her mum get it. She poked her head out of the door after realising it might be Lucy. From her room she could see straight down the stairs and to the door. She saw a tawny haired figure standing in the doorway , a cocky grin fixed on his face.

"Robin!" she heard her mother gasp...

Just a try out one. I only wrote 'cause I got a review for my other RH future fic (Boarding at Nottingham Towers) that it was good but not very unique, from ignorance-is-bliss. So thanks ignorance-is-bliss, you inspired me to write this.

Anyway, if you like this review me and tell me you want more. If I get three reviews telling me you do, I'll update.

Thanx
