Epilogue
Will Scarlett watched his homeland grow ever
closer, he had missed it dearly. He and Djaq sent Lardener's mate
across to England a few days ago to warn them of their arrival. He
smiled as the small Saracen glanced his way, collecting their few
belongings. How wonderful it would be to see the guys again. He had
been overwhelmed when Djaq suggested they return- he had stayed for
Djaq and now she was returning for him. That, and she missed the
freedom that being in robin's gang had allowed her. After several
days of travelling they finally found themselves nearing Nottingham,
and the familiar Sherwood forest- they didn't even notice their
increased pace as they caught sight of Nettlestone. They were very
close. When they ventured into the forest finally, they found
themselves quickly ambushed and a familiar speech was delivered. They
just smiled as they raised their hands into the air. VERY

"Hello,
Robin."
"Good to have you back guys." Robin greeted them
before leading them away from the area. "we had to relocate, you
can never be too careful in these woods- there's all sorts of outlaws
just waiting..." he laughed.
The new camp was...cosy... Will
didn't want to think about who must've done the woodwork- a blind
donkey from the looks of things, still it served its purpose and now
that he was here- he could do with building them a returning present.
He and Djaq had barely dropped their belongings in the camp before
Robin explained a plan that had to be executed on that day.
"And
then Allan and Much will -"
"Robin, I don't suppose I could
sit out goin in this time could I, i'm not sure about..." Gisborne,
will knew it and let off a small chuckle.
"wonder why he wont be
too pleased to see you-" it had been meant as a joke, but something
in the air told him his words had been a mistake.
"Shut up
Will, you don't know what you're talking about." This had both he
and Djaq in a sort of shock... Much... and Allan... it had been
strange enough that Robin had paired them together in the plan... but
Much... defending Allan... how long had they been gone?
there is a sequel.
