Okay, they were getting somewhere, good. Then again, no, not good. Its really unusual for bears to travel in threes unless it was a mother and her cubs, which Robin seriously doubted. Of course it was pretty much established that these weren't normal bears.
Robin put her hands on Goldilocks shoulders and lowered the volume of her voice."Alright, now this is very important. Are these things trying to find you?"

Again, Goldilocks tried to speak. However, again no luck. So she was reduced to non-vocal means. She nodded her head vigorously.

Damn it. An intense wave of fear passed over Robin, she stood "Okay, I'm going to go send a few men to go clear any trace we left behind that might lead your... Friends here. Just in case I'll make sure everyone is prepared to fight, as soon as my men return well leave and move to another part of the forest." Robin looked at her gravely, trying not to show any signs of the panic that was sweeping through her body "Goldilocks, if there is anything else you can tell me, anything I need to know, I beg you; tell me now"

"i'm...I...I'm...." She wanted to say she was sorry for bringing this threat. Maybe I should just leave....save the others from this triple terror...... Any attempt to speak and she had to fight to keep from breaking down again. Goldilocks looked around the tent. Finally, she made a motion that to best explain what what she needed to tell what she knew....was something to write/draw with.....

Robin picked up on the cue, she didn't have time to look around for parchment(it's not like it was used for a lot around here seein as how most people in the camp could barely read) so she gave her an arrow and gestured to the dirt ground "Show me"

Goldielocks took the arrow.
She then got to the ground and began to draw. First, she drew a '3', then, a capital 'B' with fierce teeth and ears. Goldie then drew an arrow pointing to a capital 'Q' that looked like it was wearing a crown.
she underlined it in order to emphasize the direction to be read, added an exclamation point, and looked up at Robin to see if he understood.

" Alright... Three bears" they'd already covered that, but at least they were on the same page "...and a Queen? The Queen?" referring to the Evil Queen hunting Snow White at the moment.

By this time, Goldielocks had had time to gather herself. This man was willing to help her... She nodded before speaking finally. "Yes....Th-that Queen..." she said. Th-the Bears...they....they work f-for her..."

Work for her? Not too many willing to do that... Whatever the reason it still didn't change the fact that they were probably coming here putting a few small hundred people in danger. Not to mention 'The Merry Men of Sherwood' weren't exactly on The Queens ally list. Any attention drawn to them could mean the end to the resistance against corrupt thrones. Robin considered a few different options; sending Goldilocks away and destroying any evidence that she was here, preparing her men for battle, or completely moving the camp altogether.
Only one person here had really encountered these bears, making her the only one who could offer an idea of what to do about them, Robin started getting up, "well, do you have any suggestions as to what I should do? I have a small army of men and women here ready to fight at my command but if you honestly think we won't survive you need to provide me with an action that will, and I promise you, I'm all ears."

"Well...." Goldielocks started. "I-I know in Bear for they.....they are harder to defeat but......" The girl reached into her cloak, pulling out a charm. "I managed to.....to take this......" She placed it into Robin's hand. "I........'took' it.........from Her....."

A charm? This made Robin a little uneasy, she'd almost never trust magic. Good or bad it always seemed to lead down a difficult road. But then, if this was the only way to save her friends, including her newest...
Robin clutched it on her gloved hands feeling its weight and size. "How do we use it?"

Goldielocks bit her lip then. That was one thing she didn't know.... "I......I don't know..." she said softly. "All I know is that that can defeat them.....Mother and Father....." She closed her eyes. "They never told me hoe to use it...." The girl took a deep breath. "I....I was on my way t-to find The Goldspinner.....To ask Him about it...."

"Rumpelstiltskin?!" Robin jerked back a little and scowled. Magic in this case was one thing, but this 'Goldspinner' as Goldilocks called him was way beyond the call of duty. For one they had never been on good terms(but then was anybody?), he had made a deal with her once and she swore to never do it again, but then of course there were the rumours... The whispers in the forest about how he came across his dark gifts.
"Are you sure he's the only way?" Robin looked again at the tiny charm in the palm of her hand. Anything but this...

Goldilocks backed at Robin's disgust.
"I....I thought he'd know..." she said softly. "Mother and father never told m how to use it..before..." She took another deep breath. "I...I thought that Rump...that He would know. I.....I was even ready to make a deal with..."

He would know how to use it. Robin looked towards the flap of the tent. If Rumpelstiltskin did know how to use it then she could be done with this problem, and even if he didn't(unlikely, but still) then the bears would follow Goldilocks away from the camp.
"A deal?" Robin sighed," I'll have to go with you"
