Previously on 'Of Sheriffs and Sisters':

"So how did you become part of this gang?" She wondered.

"Now, that is a very interesting story…" Allan began before going into the story behind his involvement with Robin and the outlaws.

Italics are thought unless in a spoken sentence.

Meanwhile, back at camp…

"Where is Allan?" Djaq wondered, just now noticing the troublemaker's absence. Robin looked up at her from his seat on the ground.

"He left a while ago. Went for a walk." He answered. He looked over at Marian, who smiled and shook her head at him.

"Where's Lizzy?" Much wondered aloud after a few minutes of silence. Everyone looked up. The guys looked at Marian and Djaq, who both shrugged.

"Last time we saw her, she was bathing in the river." Marian said, noticing the worried look Robin got.

"So, Allan is out walking and Lizzy is…still at the river, I guess?" Much asked. Everyone but Robin sent him a glare, knowing he was putting ideas into Robin's head.

"This I do not like." John muttered, watching Robin warily.

"Allan." Robin growled before he walked out the camp door, carrying his sword at his side.

"Uh-oh." Much said, breaking the silence and earning a smack on the head from everyone in the group. "Ow! What did I do?" He asked. No one answered, but they all shook their heads before returning to what they had been doing before.

Robin was searching desperately for his sister and Allan (who he was going to kill when he found him) when he heard laughter coming from down by the river. He turned that way and quickly tried to reach it.

"…no, no. He really did. Chased her around the entire Locksley village trying to get her to give it back." Lizzy was saying. Allan laughed heartily while she giggled.

"Just because he was mad that she beat him?" He asked through his laughter. Robin could see Lizzy's outline as she nodded.

"Yep. That was before he started really practicing though." She answered, trying to defend whomever they had been discussing.

"Marian beat Robin. I can actually see it." Allan commented, laughing again and causing Lizzy to laugh too.

Robin frowned and decided it was time to make his entrance. He stepped through the trees and into the clearing.

"Talking about me? Not fair to keep me out of it." He chided. Lizzy and Allan both jumped up before they noticed it was him.

"Oh. Hello Robin." Lizzy said with a smile as she wiped off the pants she had been given.

"Sorry we've been gone so long-" Allan began, but Robin cut him off with a held up hand. His smile dropped as he saw the anger in Robin's face.

"You're sorry? You," Robin pointed at Lizzy. "Worried me out my mind. And you, Allan. She's my sister!" He finished, moving towards Allan threateningly. Lizzy stepped in front of him, hands on hips.

"Robin, Allan and I have been talking. It's not like he came out here looking for me." She told her brother.

"You sure about that?" Robin asked, earning a glare from both Lizzy and Allan. He sighed in defeat as his sister continued to stare him down. "I really wish you would have kept Marian or Djaq with you. It would have made me feel better." Lizzy smiled at this.

"Since when have I ever cared what you wanted?" She asked sarcastically. Robin chucked and looked up at Allan, who still looked anger at his leader's suspicion.

"I am sorry, my friend." He said, sticking out his hand for Allan to take. When he did, Robin held on. "She is my sister though, so be warned that I will hurt you if you hurt her." He squeezed Allan's hand hard before letting go and clapping him on the shoulder.

"Let's go back to camp." Lizzy said rolling her eyes as the tension of the group slipped away.

"Much made 'chicken'." Robin told them, trying to lighten the mood. Allan nodded pensively before chuckling under his breath.

"Probably squirrel." He joked, laughing out loud with Robin. Lizzy looked at the two of them curiously.

"Squirrel?" She wondered. Robin smiled down at her and nodded.

"Squirrels seem to disappear around here a lot. Plus nobody's sure what the meat in Much's stew is." He answered her, smirking at the disgusted look on her face.

"Great." The young girl muttered sarcastically. Robin and Allan both laughed.

"You get used to it." Allan tried to reassure her. She smiled thankfully at him before turning and following Robin out of the clearing.

Marian heard laughter outside the camp, and looked up just as the door swung open. In walked Allan, Robin and Lizzy, all laughing hysterically.

"Looks like someone's getting along well." Djaq muttered from the spot next to her. Marian smiled at her and then at Robin, who had seated himself next to her. He looked much more at ease then earlier, but she could tell he still had reservations about Allan and his sister being so close. His gaze continued to wonder to Allan and Lizzy, who were sitting on Allan's bunk, talking and laughing as Much passed out the bowls.

"It feels strange, having her here." Robin suddenly admitted, lowering his voice so only Marian could hear. She nodded.

"Yes. Although it is nice to have another girl around. Djaq and I were getting tired of you lot. Thought we might have to slit your throats in your sleep." She joked, elbowing him in the ribs. He laughed at her and grabbed her shoulders, pulling her in for a kiss. They were interrupted by kissing noises from across from them. They broke apart and glared playfully at Lizzy, who was making a kissy face while the rest of the gang laughed.

"Ha ha. You are eighteen aren't you?" Robin asked sarcastically, chuckling at the angry look his sister sent him.

"Now I remember why you kept Marian around." Lizzy said smiling smugly at the frown Robin sent her way and dodging the pillow Marian threw at her head.

"Sorry to break up this lovely reunion you all have going on, but the shipment from the Holy Lands arrives tomorrow, Robin." Much stated. The group calmed and quieted as Robin stood up, getting ready to make a plan.

Author's Note: Sorry it took me so long to write, but I've been kind of busy. I started this chapter on Friday afternoon, but then my friend invited me to see 'The Dark Knight' with her. Which was awesome, by the way! Then on Saturday was my other friend's sixteenth birthday and today I had church. I hope you like this chapter even though it took a while.

Genevieve05--I really thought that the last chapter was important to begin the relationship between Allan and Lizzy. Of course it's going to get better with time, so keep reading and keep up with the awesome reviews. Loves.

X-uRbAn PiXiE-X--When I thought about this story before I had written it, I didn't know who the OC was going to be with let alone if they were actually going to be with anyone at all. Robin's reaction is based 

solely on what I think he would do in that situation. I hope you like this chapter and continue to read and review please. Thanks and loves.

Everyone reading this, reviews make me smile. So please hit the little 'go' button down at the bottom of the screen and tell me what you think.

Loves.
