OMCAL Chapter 4
I know I said I would update every 3 days as promised, but there was so much going on, and I started a new story, and I'm running out of ideas for this one, so this story has fallen by the wayside I'm afraid. But here's an update!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Red and black flashed across the inside of Marion's eyes. Distorted shapes and voices were coming at her from every direction. It hurt so much. The hurt had to stop. It had to. Marion cried out in agony as pain seared through her abdomen. God, please make it stop. Make it go away. It hurts too much. I am going to die...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Robin heard Marion cry out, and ran to her bunk. Thinking she was awake, he pulled back the curtain, smiling. Then he saw her. Marion was thrashing around, her deathly pale face covered in sweat. This was out of his depth. He needed Djaq. "Much!" Robin yelled.
"Yes Master?" Much replied, from the fireside.
"Where's Djaq?"
"She went off with Will about half an hour ago. Said something about getting honey..." Much said, rolling his eyes.
Just before Robin ran into the dark forest, Will and Djaq appeared. They were both beaming, and holding hands.
"Djaq, thank God you're back! Marion needs help. I do not know what to do! You have to help her," Robin said, the words coming out in a rush.
Immediately the smile was wiped off Djaq's face. Casting an apologetic look at Will, she hurried over to where Marion lay.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Robin paced outside the camp countless times, while Djaq was inside with Marion. John and Much had tried to get him to eat something or sit down, but he couldn't. He'd lost her once, and that wasn't going to happen again. Especially not now that she carried his child. Or he hoped it was his child...
Finally Djaq appeared, looking exhausted. "She's awake Robin. She's tired though, and needs her rest. You have an hour."
Robin thanked her and ran inside. There lay Marion, she was lying down, but her eyes followed Robin's progress towards her bed, and her lips curved upwards into a smile.
"Robin...I thought I'd never see you again," She said weakly.
"Me too Marion. I'm never going to leave you again, don't worry," Robin replied, reaching for her.
"Robin, I have to tell you some thing," Marion began.
"Shh...I know Marion. I know. You're going to have our child. We're married Marion, it'll be fine," Robin replied, smiling at her.
Marion nodded. She couldn't tell him that it might not be his child, it would break his heart if he knew. She should have know that Djaq would have figured out something.
"Djaq. Where is she?" Marion suddenly asked.
"She's right outside, I'll get her for you," Robin smiled at Marion once more, then went to find Djaq. Djaq bustled inside immediately after Robin had left.
Marion broke down, sobbing. Djaq hurried to her, comforting her.
"Marion? What is wrong?" she asked gently.
"Its not his Djaq! I'm his wife, but its not his!" She cried.
Djaq understood, "Your child. Its not Robin's is it?"
Marion shook her head, "I don't know Djaq! It might be his, or..." she trailed off.
"Or..." Djaq prompted.
"Or it might be Guy's," Marion muttered, hanging her head.

I know it's a short chapter....
I didn't mean for the chapter to finish like this, but it kinda took this direction.... :)
I'll try update soon, but no promises. Oh, and please take part in my poll. :)
And if you have any ideas, I would love to hear them!
