Robin Hood: the sequel The Story

Meanwhile, the fool, King Richard, who, in this sheriff's opinion, had suffered some form of dementia, decided to travel to Nottingham with his Page while dressed as a Bishop. Despite his holy appearance, Robin Hood, Maid Marion, Alan A'Dale, and even Friar Tuck ambushed, assaulted, and robbed the King. Now, because Robin Hood didn't steal all his money, the King thought this was just dandy and asked to travel with Robin Hood, essentially becoming the band's own personal ATM.

Finally arriving in Nottingham, where I was trying to help the old, tax-delinquent wheelwright move to more affordable housing (the street) Ellen attempted to pay off her father's debt using the money she had stolen from the Bishop-disguised King. I, being a man of the law, recognized by the instinct inherent of one in my position for so long, that this silver had been obtained by illicit means, so I refused to accept it.

So incensed was Robin Hood at my honorable act, that he charged at Target and me in an unprovoked attack. A chase ensued which ended with Robin Hood a prisoner.

At this point, the King finally revealed his true identity and, after having met and known me for between 30 and 40 seconds and never bothering to hear my side of the story, made a monumental, life-shattering verdict with a swiftness that would put Judge Wapner to shame! King Richard decided to arrest Target and me, bless Ellen and Alan's prepubescent wedding, and pardon Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men of robbery, resisting arrest, assaulting an officer, and three counts of tax evasion.

A very tragic tale, indeed.

Sadly,

The Former Sheriff of Nottingham
