Isabek followed, still a little unsteady on her feet. By her tight lips one could tell she was determined not to ask for help.

Nimue thanked Aiden, took a few sips and coughed. She handed the flask over to Shade and once more followed Aiden again, while she glanced at Isabel who looked a bit shaky.

Shade thanked her and withotu taking an drink, hung the flask back on her belt.

Aiden heard faint shouts from behind him. He clenched is hand, wishing he had a sword or bow.

Isabel looked nervously behind her. She wrapped her arms around herself and tried to go faster, stumbling a little.

Aelwen watched the others suspiciously from her place among them. She hadn't said a word to anyone yet she had given a slight smile to the infamous Robin Hood. Her long blonde hair had been tied back in a braid and her blue eye darted around searching for enemies. Her hands craved a sword or bow, something that didn't made her feel useless. Even a shackle or small axe would be something.

Shade unsheathed her sword and went towards the back again, but kept moving.

Nimue grabbed her arm. "Give me a sword.. anything..and I will help you.." Her fiery eyes shone bright and her grip was strong. It was not in her nature to run and hide, she would go back and fight if she had to.

Shade smiled and said, "You are weak...not naturally, I can tell. Here," She unsheathed an dagger and handed it to her.

Robin hood mounted his big bay.
"I'll show you the way!" he called to the escaped slaves. He trotted off in the right direction, keeping his bow ready incase there was any trouble up ahead.

~~~~~

The slave boy wept until a guard came to the door of his cell, and grabbed him by the arm, and pulled him through a big door.
"Yes, thats my slave," he heard a familiar voice say, his owner's voice, and big oof of a man that was crule.
"C'mon boy, git back to work carring the water buckets! If you try to escape again I'll have you hanged!"

Shade smiled and said, "Keep going....just be on the watch."

"No to do this.."she said determined as she took the dagger. After making some quick movements her hand was used to the touch of the hilt again for it had been a long time ago she had touched a weapon.
She clearly remembered what her father used to say when he learnt her the sword: never to strike first, but await your enemies attack.

Isabel stumbled and nearly fell, shivering as the wind got colder and the day progressed. She got up, forcing herself to keep going though she was obviously exhausted and kept glancing behind her nervously.

"Isabel!" Nimue said, quickly running over to her friend. "You need to rest.. you're exhausted.."
She gave her a worried look, hoping though her stubborn nature she would take her advice.

"No..." protested Isabel, stopping for a minute. "We need to keep going, I'll slow you all down." She glanced behind them with a look of sheer terror. "I don't want to go back..." she said, her voice falling to a whisper. "I need to keep going."

Robin hood looked back and smiled. He turned his stallion around and came up behind them, and picked Isabel up by the color and set her down on the saddle behind him.
"There! You get somewere and rest at the same time!"
