Guy's point of view
With Alan now gone Sir Jasper turned to face me saying
"Cor your boy really wants to save you"
He does ?
"Well this isn't about me is it,
It's about the the people of Nottingham."
I replied.
"Correct."
Correct ?
This isn't a game you stupid fool.
Slowly he took a step or two towards me and continued.
"And much as I dislike you you need not fear the onslaught.
As a black knight you and your family may pass freely through the town."
There's a way out ?
…
"I have no family"
"Good keeps things simple."
Sir Jasper then turned and walked off.
Did he really just say that ?
'Follow him'
"But I do have friends.."
Calmly I followed behind him.
Watching him just strut down the hall as if he was the one holding all the cards.
'Technically he is in a way'
"-family not friends."
He interrupted.
Does this man have memory loss at all or is he just winding me up ?
"One person in particular that you seem to be forgetting."
He knows.
"Oh a particular lady Marian ?"
"Yes"
I stated.
"We are engaged and I confess that hopefully we'll be married within the next few months."
He stopped and so did i.
We were now facing each other.
"Hopefully ?
Doesn't really wash."
Calmly I replied.
"In time she will be family."
"In time ?"
"Yes in time she will be my wife."
I said sharply.
"Not if she's dead"
The sickening evil look on his face makes me really want to punch it off his ugly face.
Can I punch him now?
'Keep calm'
He is threatening the woman I love.
'Not directly,
Keep your temper hidden for now.
If he does try to touch her or harm her in anyway or everything somehow manages to be back to normal then punch him.'
"Marian comes with me."
I stated calmly.
"Yes.
If you've married her by then."
He said as he turned and began to walk away.
But I on the other hand stood in the same spot.
Raising my voice I said to his retreating form.
"Well I can't marry her between now and sunset can I ?!"
Sir Jasper briefly stopped and shouted.
"Well why not ?
She's hardly going to say no is she ?"
He continued and I just looked down and sighed.
That was stressful.
Could their possibly be anything else for me to worry about ?
Now not only is an army coming to destroy the town and kill everyone.
But I have to hurry and marry my fiancé in order for us to leave the town alive ?
'She won't do it ?'
What do you mean she won't do it ?
…
The warning bell was being rung.
It echoed throughout the castle and quickly I ran off towards the front gate of the town.
Hopefully I will find Alan on the way.
