Part 10 – A Trick.
The outlaws began to slow as they got to the camp and laid their leader onto his bed. Tears now relentlessly falling from their eyes.
"What happened?" Thomas ran over to them.
"He was hung," John said bluntly as Djaq hurries over to check Robins pulse hoping he may still be alive.
"His heart is still beating!" she cried happily.
"What?" they asked running over to Robin's side.
"Come on Robin," Djaq cried, pressing hard against his chest and then looking at Marian meaningfully, "Do you mind," she asked gingerly.
Marian understood what she meant and nodded, anything to save Robin she thought.
Djaq pressed her lips to Robin twice performing mouth to mouth resuscitation, "Come on!" she begged him trying again.
Suddenly Robin burst into a coughing fit and the outlaws laughed in relief.
"Djaq, what the hell were you doing?" Robin asked outraged, "Couldn't you see I was already breathing? Some physicist you are!"
"What?" she said, stunned.
"I was fine, I had to pretend to be dead for the Sheriffs sake," Robin sighed, as though it was obvious.
"But we've been back for a few minutes, why didn't you wake up before then?" Marian asked, wiping away her tears.
Robin smiled cheekily and got a punch in the face,
"Don't you ever trick me like that again, Robin Hood!" she exclaimed, almost laughing with relief.
