Shocked into silence, Charli and Tanya watched as they picked themselves up off the floor. The first thing they all noticed were that they were all men. The second thing – no, that was about all they noticed.

"Oh Holy!" Came a muffled voice from inside a toilet cubicle. "Why is it always the Privy!" The door swung open and a young man came stumbling out, obviously thrown off balance by the swinging mechanism of the door. He stopped just before stumbling over his companions, who were lying in a heap on the floor, groaning.

"Hey. What are you doing down there?" He looked up and around at his surroundings. "Hey. Where did the forest go?" He received no answer to his questions as the other men started to pull themselves up, rubbing various parts of their anatomy. They too looked around and appeared quite shocked at what they saw.

"Look at all the Silver!" The oldest man rubbed his hands together gleefully. Unlike the other men he had appeared with, he either hadn't noticed the oddity of their predicament, or it just simply didn't bother him. He bent over to inspect the colour of the radiator as the others continued to look nervously around.

"Robin, what happened?"

"I don't know Much" A young man answered. "Has anyone seen my bow?" As he spoke there was another clatter of thunder, and several objects fell from the general area of the ceiling. A shield and a staff fell to the floor with a crash, and a graceful looking curved bow landed on the head of another young man with a rather sickening crack.

"Here Robin" he rubbed his head, "I found it. Now, not being funny," he passed the bow to Robin, "But where are we? It deffinatly doesn't look like Sherwood."

"Its Witchcraft!"

"For heaven's sake! You men are obsessed with the idea of Witchcraft," Robin looked around him worriedly. "Although, I'm starting to wonder myself…"

"Robin," the young man who had appeared from the toilet a moment ago poked in the arm. "There are two very suspicious looking…um…I think they may be women, over there." He pointed over in the direction of Tanya and Charli who had been too shocked to move since the strange event had begun.

Robin, a little unsure, eyed them wearily. "Who are you? And I demand you tell me where we are and what happened here!" All eyes were now upon the two girls. Even the older man who had been intrigued with the radiator at moment ago had looked up to stare at them.

"We…um…" Tanya started to stutter but Charli quickly cut in. "Now wait just a minute! I could ask exactly the same thing. I mean, I'm not being funny but, this is the ladies bathroom and you shouldn't even be in here!"

"Hey, she sounds like me!" The young man who had handed Robin his bow back laughed.

"Alan, be quiet!" A large bulky looking man with a lot of facial hair spoke out. "They could be witches. Do you want them to curse us!"

"Witches?" Tanya scoffed. "You're having a laugh, mate! You've watched one too many movies I reckon!"

"Movies? Why do you speak in such a strange manner? And…" Robin looked her over before grimacing slightly. "What is wrong with your hair?" Tanya wanted to disappear into a big hole. For it was only then she noticed just how unbelievably gorgeous this so called Robin was. She mentally kicked herself for messing up her hair only moments ago. She quickly made an attempt at flattening it down again.

"You didn't answer my question." Robin stated, his eyes wide now, looking from one girl to the other.

"Man, he's bossy…a little annoying really." Charli looked at Tanya and shook her head.

"Yes, he can be most infuriating at times, can't he?" It was a new voice that spoke this time. All eyes followed its direction but it was only Tanya and Charli who almost laughed when a tall dark man stepped forward, dressed in what appeared to be a full set of leathers, black too. The older man who had been studying the radiators was now cowering behind him, as if afraid there was going to be trouble.

"Gee, can I have a ride on your hog?" Charli burst out laughing. They were a strange bunch. And there were at least eight of them too.

"Hog?" The tall man gave her a menacing look. "Are you suggesting that I ride a pig?" He stepped forward in fury.

Robin held his arm out to stop him. "Please Guy. Now is not the time to be losing your temper with a lady. I think the first thing we need to do is find out exactly where we are and how to get back to Sherwood."

"Sherwood? As in Sherwood forest?" Charli looked bemused.

"Where not in Sherwood forest anymore?" The leathery guy named- well…Guy, looked even more bemused. "And since when did I start taken orders from you, Locksley?"

Robin growled and his hand shot up as if to draw an arrow from his back but a voice stopped him in his tracks. "Locksley?" Tanya chocked as she put two and two together. "As in Robin of Locksley?"

"Ah! Then you know who I am then," Robin suddenly grinned, all anger diminishing. "Excellent!"

Tanya grew hot and red as he stepped right up and looked down at her. She noticed that he smelt of the great outdoors; damp rain and a little musty, but definitely very manly. They stood there for moment or two, Tanya frozen solid as the stranger looked her up and down and studied her as if for the first time. Okay, so her hair was a mess but apart from that…Robins smile grew all the more.

"For heavens sake, Locksley! Can you not go one moment without wooing a woman!"
