A/N: Saw a play on Robin Hood with a good friend of mine last month, so I present this to you. Blah blah blah Read & Review
Atticus and Patch were hanging out in the park and watching the sunset before they would go back home for dinner after playing for a while like a real boy and his dog normally would which was also good for exercise with the two since they didn't have any missions of their own to take care of and decided to spend the day doing what they liked best.
"So, what're you gonna do tomorrow?" Atticus asked.
"I think I should go see Tom, Jerry, and Robyn." Patch replied.
"That sounds nice." Atticus smiled.
"Yeah," Patch smiled back. "This was a great day too. I'm glad I found time away from the Pound Puppies to hang out with you."
"I'm glad too." Atticus smiled back.
The man who owned the bulldog Spike and his puppy, Tyke, were soon going for a walk in the park.
"Those two better not try anything." Patch glared at Spike and Tyke, especially since they usually bullied Tom, more so when the cat was weak and defenseless before getting an upgrade in strength.
"I'm sure they will." Atticus told him.
Patch nodded firmly as he didn't like it whenever Spike and Tyke would bully Tom and Jerry, but especially Tom whenever the cat didn't do anything wrong.
"Let's have one more go..." Atticus suggested, bringing out the Frisbee.
"All right... One more..." Patch nodded before stretching.
"Alright, and fetch!" Atticus smiled as he threw the Frisbee.
Patch smiled back out of excitement and soon ran off, jumping up to catch the Frisbee in his mouth, and where he caught it successfully.
"Good boy, Patch!" Atticus beamed.
Patch smiled as he soon walked off. Tyke seemed to watch Atticus and Patch as he hung out with his father and their owner who was an adult man. Atticus soon walked Patch over to Tom, Jerry, and Robyn's house.
"Thanks for the fun, Atticus," Patch smiled. "That was the best time I've had with you."
"Well, I think you earned it after we've both been so busy lately." Atticus smiled back.
"Yes, we have." Patch nodded.
After a while, they soon came up to the Starling residence which always looked so amazing each time they visited. Robyn was organizing the books on the bookshelf with her father since they were a bit misplaced.
"Robin Hood..." Mr. Starling chuckled once he found one book that stood out. "I must've read this to you a thousand times when you were little, Robyn."
A slip of paper seemed to stick out of the book. The doorbell soon rang.
"That must be Atticus, excuse me." Mr. Starling smiled to his daughter, letting her look at the book.
Robyn smiled as she took it and sat down with Tom and Jerry to look at her childhood favorite story. "I used to love this story when I was a little girl," she then told her new pets. "Daddy read it to me a lot before I'd go to sleep."
"Did it always have that slip of paper sticking out?" Jerry asked while pointing to the slip of paper sticking out of the book.
"Hm?" Robyn asked, soon seeing that and flipped to the page that the paper came from.
"Must be an old love note or something from the last person who had this book." Tom crossed his arms with a smirk.
Mr. Starling and Patch were soon seen coming in the room. Robyn took a look at the paper with Tom and Jerry before looking up.
"You have a visitor." Mr. Starling chuckled to his daughter.
"Hey." Patch smiled at the trio.
"Oh! Patch! Hello." Robyn smiled back, petting him.
Patch smiled, loving the petting and comforting. "Oh, you'd be great with a pet dog."
"I think a cat and a mouse are plenty for right now." Robyn giggled to him.
"Fair enough." Patch smirked playfully.
"Robyn found some paper in the book." Tom said to Patch.
"Really? Let me see that." Patch replied.
Robyn soon held out the paper for the Dalmatian to take a look at.
And where Patch saw it was a spell. "Appears to be a magic spell." he then said.
"Magic again?!" Tom complained. "Aw, come on! What is with this house and magic?!"
"Robyn's Uncle Chip was a wizard, remember? And so was her mother." Jerry reminded him.
"This must have been left from her or your Uncle Chip or Drell's at it again." Patch told Robyn.
"I'm not sure myself," Robyn shrugged. "I just know that when I was really little, my dad would read this book to me all the time."
"Maybe we should test it out." Patch smirked.
"Let's not and say we did." Tom mumbled.
Unfortunately, no one listened to Tom.
"Right, guys?" The cat asked nervously.
"Seems to be a spell revolving around fairy tales..." Robyn commented. "A Fairy Tale land... Sounds like Daddy's old friends' theme park."
"Your father has friends who own a theme park?" Jerry asked curiously.
"They call it Storybook Town," Robyn explained. "I think that's another story for another time though, but this spell seems to bring up fairy tales. Is Robin Hood a fairy tale?"
"I think it is in a way." Patch nodded.
"Uh, hello?" Tom spoke up, trying to get their attention.
"Should we try it out?" Robyn asked Jerry and Patch.
"As a familiar, I can't resist the calling of a spell," Patch replied. "Must be a thing... I dunno, Salem DID used to be a warlock, so he gets excited whenever he can use magic spells in his own time."
"Let's do it." Jerry smiled.
"Guys?!" Tom yelped.
"Should I do it?" Robyn smiled curiously.
"Yes!" Patch and Jerry cheered.
"Oh, boy, this is going to involve an adventure." Tom sighed.
"Yep!" Patch and Jerry told him.
"All right, I will, but first..." Robyn said, holding her stomach suddenly.
They soon came into the kitchen to have some quick snacks as Robyn suddenly felt hungry which made Tom and Jerry also feel hungry. They soon had a quick snack.
"I don't think we need another adventure so soon," Tom said nervously. "I mean, uh, we just got home from one, didn't we?"
"Nope." Jerry shook his head.
"Come on, guys, be pals, can't we just-" Tom began until Jerry shoved a fish in his mouth.
"Here, Tom, have a snack!" Jerry smiled.
"Ready to read the spell?" Patch asked Robyn.
"No!" Tom replied.
"I think so." Robyn replied after she finished a sandwich she made for herself.
"Great." Tom groaned.
After they were finished with their snacks, it was time for the spell. Tom bit his paw a bit nervously.
"Why're you being such a scaredy cat?" Jerry smirked.
"I'm not!" Tom said. "I'm just... Uh... Worried for Robyn?"
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Robyn smiled.
"Yeah... But... But... But..." Tom stammered.
"'To learn deeply, music takes scales, Fighting takes muscle and heart, Adventure takes part, Straight into Fairy Tales'." Robyn read the spell aloud anyway.
The book soon glowed and sucked in the group.
"Oh, boy, here we go again!" Tom cried out as they were taken for a ride.
"Awesome!" Jerry beamed. "Adventure!"
"Wahoo!" Robyn cheered.
The book soon closed as soon as they were all sucked in, taking them into a fairy tale world, sort of like Ever After High's environment before showing the opening page of the fable of Robin Hood.
In the days of olde, when knights were bold, good King Richard the Lionheart ruled all of England. But, while this beloved king was off fighting foreign lands, his wicked brother, Prince John, seized the throne, and used his power to tax innocent folks to near starvation. His cruel henchman, the Sheriff of Nottingham, enforced this tyranny through might and cruelty. Poor England, it suffered so. The people so desperately needed a hero...
