Chapter 13
We met up with Marian, I noticed the side of her horse had been covered with vomit I walked up to her, standing next to her I rubbed her leg.
"Are you okay My Lady?"
She nodded yes.
"My Lord I had not expected it to be so messy is all, and that poor horse"
I started laughing, she gave me an odd look, then seem to realize she had been sorry for the horse and not the rider, she started laughing to, soon Robin joined in. He walked over to me uprising me with a hug.
"Good sir Knight you have rid this land of a vile pestilence, you shall forever be welcomed in my land."
He patted my back and then released me, I looked up at Marian, then back at Robin.
"I fear Robin that I shall never return to this land, but if I do I will surely seek you out."
I looked up at Marian.
"My Lady, I can not ask you to go with me, as we may never come back to your home, it is your choice to continue on with me, or stay here and go back with Robin."
She looked to Robin.
"Robin, tell my cousin that I will be fine and I will miss him."
She turned her horse toward the path looking back at me.
"Well my Lord?"
I laughed and looked to Robin, I removed my pistol and handed it to him.
"Robin it is a fine weapon and shall serve you well, take care of your people and be just to them."
He took the pistol nodding.
"Sir Knight may God protect you"
I nodded to him mounting my horse.
"Sir Knight where will you go now?"
I looked back at him.
"I have to see a man about a sword"
Marian and I rode of together, following the path north, each of our horses carried one of my duffels, we rode until night, setting up camp in the woods. I tied off the horses and erected our tent, Marian started the fire and cooked for us.
We ate together in silence, I was reflecting on my life, I had been a loaner in my old world, and now I was powerful, and had a beautiful women that was a legend in my world, everyone had known of the story of Robin hood.
Marian and I retired into our tent, we did nothing that night as we both where tired from the days ride, we fell asleep quickly.
I ended up back in the dream world, I was walking down the aisle of a movie theater, on the screen was playing the confrontation between Prince John and I, I could hear someone laughing hysterically, I walked toward it, it was the man in the Hawaiian shirt, he was eating popcorn and laughing.
