A/N: This will be fun. I would like to thank Funnygirl2000 for being the unknowing inspiration for this story. I was reading her story, "God Gave Me You," and that really made me decide to write this Robin Hood BBC fic. I hope you enjoy and I would appreciate reviews.
Disclaimer: I do not own Robin Hood, only me OC, the plot line, and anything else not canon. All else goes to BBC.
Sheriff Vaisey of Nottingham sat in his office, looking highly pleased with himself. "You wanted to see my, sheriff?" it was the deep, slightly annoyed, voice of his Master of Arms that spoke. Guy of Gisborne leaned against the wall waiting for the reason he had been summoned.
"Gisborne, you remember what I told you about lepers? Well, that all might change," Vaisey smiled. "I have been corresponding with a certain Lord Kersey."
"The Lord Kersey, my lord?" Guy struggled to keep his surprise hidden. Lord Kersey of Weston was one of the highest English supporters of Prince John. Anyone who had his friendship was bound to be rewarded.
"Very good, Gisborne, at least I know you're keeping up with the times. Anyway, we got to writing and la-di-da-di-da he mentions about his daughter, Lillian. Apparently there was an attack on her life some months ago. He said that she was unhappy in the place she is now, and he is looking for a safe haven for her to stay." Vaisey stood at the window and looked across his little city. His mind was turning with the possibilities for power. "He said that if she was happily married, he would fund the Black Knights with one hundred thousand pounds!" Vaisey slammed his hands on the desk and smiled more when Gisborne jumped. "One hundred thousand pounds! Think about the power we could attain with that kind of money! The King would be dead in a month!"
Vaisey sauntered to the front of his desk and sat on the edge, "All we have to do is to keep her safe. And marry her off to someone."
"Marry her? To whom?" certainly not to you, Guy thought, cringing at Vaisey marrying anyone.
"You."
"Me?" at first Gisborne was about to object, but then he remembered what she came with. Promise of power, riches, land for his name.
"Yes you. It will be her decision though. Gisborne," Vaisey took a few steps toward him and laid a hand on his shoulder, "She does know about any of this. I trust you can charm her enough to marry you? Good because if you don't," Guy twitch when the Sheriff picked up a knife and dropped it onto the wooden tabletop. "And I don't get my funds." "Good, now, go and scare some children!" Guy left the room. .His thoughts were turned on how he would coerce his unknowing bride-to-be.
A/N: I know it's short, but it's only the beginning. Besides, this was spur of the moment.
