Gang of thieves

A group of young boys and girls were there, immediately they saw us they took their weapons and pointed at us.

"We come in peace, savers" the Goldsmith said raising his two hands up. He looked at me and found out that I was standing still and motioned on me to do as he did.

I scoffed instead and took a step forward but one of the girls shot an arrow at me which I dodged.

"Take another step and it will land on your skull" she spat showing her dirty teeth.

Smirking I took a step forward and she shot an arrow again which I caught with my left hand. I used the other hand and brought the small dagger in my cloth and threw at her feet missing it just a little bit.

"And that's how you threaten someone, and you really should do something with your teeth. They looked dirty, very dirty" I said stressing the "very dirty". She tried to charge at me but a guy stopped her.

"What do you want ?" The guy asked me.

"Are you the leader ?" I asked him.

"Yes" he replied.

He was quite handsome and resembled the one that stole my money but more handsome than him.

"One of your men stole my money, oh that him" I said pointing at the guy.

"Angus !" the leader called the guy I pointed at.

"I didn't do anything brother, we steal from the nobles and give to the poor right? and that was what I did" the guy called Angus replied.

"Well that was my feeding money and you took it, Angos, Angus or whatever your name is" I said. The leader went to Angus and opened his palm for him, Angus drop a pouch of coin on his palm.

He then came to me and gave it to me. I collected it and counted it and it was complete.

"Well it is complete thank you so much for your time" I said and turned to leave.

Someone held me by my hand, I turned and it was the leader.

"Get your filthy hands off me" I said and snatched my hand away. He smiled and said " once you see our hideout, you are not allowed to go outside again My Lady".

"Why ?" I asked.

"Because you might tell on us" he replied.

I chuckled and said to him "OK so you are Robin hood right?, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor and your hideout must not be discovered. You know that just a fairy tale and guess what happened in the fairy tale, their hideout was discovered and destroyed.

"You know the story very well My Lady but what you don't know it is not a fairy tale but real occurrence" he said.

"OK I am not here to debate fairy tales and real occurrence with you, I am running out of time. And don't worry telling on you guys is the last thing on my mind. Even if I did I am pretty sure that all of you would not be up to one hundred gold coins" l said.

"He chuckled and said "you are too rude and arrogant to be a Lady in a noble home, the ones I know are always meek and humble but you are just different. I think like you".

"I don't care" I replied.

" By the way I am Liam" he said.

"What is your name ?" he asked.

"Nobody" I answered and turned to the Goldsmith and told him "let's go". We started walking away.

"I hope I see you again Lady Nobody" Liam called at me but I ignored him and continued walking.

We followed the same trail we came from and came out at the place where milk and cheese were sold.

"You are quite lucky that they let you go Miss" the Goldsmith said but I just ignored him because something caught my attention.

Far ahead I could make out a carriage that looks like my kidnappers own. 

When it got closer I hid in the back of the Goldsmith but unfortunately the carriage stopped where we were.

"Hello folks" I heard the pirate looking man's son greeted.

"Sorry to disturb you but we are looking for a fair young beautiful lady with a very long and beautiful blonde hair. Anyone that provides her whereabouts gets a reward" he said.

"Hey lad !" the Goldsmith called at him and my blood got cold thinking that he would tell on me.

"Yes do you where is ?" Edward asked.

My heart starting beating rapidly and I prepared myself to fight them off when the Goldsmith tell him about me.

"No just that your belt is unbuckled" the Goldsmith said and the people there starting laughing.

"Get him !" I heard Edward said to one of his men but one of the villager said to Edward "if you touch that man you are not living here alive, tell us the reward for bringing the girl" the man said.

"Six hundred gold coins will be your if anyone of you brings the girl" Edward replied.

"We will look for her" the man promised.

"If you find her bring her to the Gill inn, that is where I stay" Edward said and entered the carriage and it left.

"Let's get back to the hideout" the Goldsmith whispered at me and we sneaked back to the stall and came into the forest. 

"You know the way right?" he asked me.

"Yes" I replied.

"Why was he looking for you ?" he asked.

"How did you knew he was talking about me ?" I asked.

"Because you fit in his description, you are the only lady I have seen with such long hair" he replied.

"So why was he looking for you ?" he asked again.

"I insulted him and he wants to take revenge" I replied.

"Sure ?" he asked.

"Very sure" I replied.

"OK I have to go, stay safe" he said and wanted to leave.

"Wait" I said and went closer to him and he gave me the ring.

"Make sure you smith it and turn it to another thing it belongs to that man" I said to him.

"OK Miss, thanks" he said and disappeared into the stall.
