Robin eyed him, sensing that he was hiding something from her,"Only the metaphorical type...." she said watching him closely, then continued,"So... The brook you spoke of earlier, might not be a bad idea to find that"

"Great!" the Piper declared happily. "Shall we?" He offered his arm, making no sign that he recognized the young woman's face. "Tis this way."

Robin paused another look at him, then took his arm careful not get his sleeve dirty."Thank you.... Um, I don't Suppose you have a name?" she asked smirking a little.

"Bah! How rude of me." The Piper turned to her and gave a bow. "I go by Oliver to most" he replied. Well, that wasn't really a lie... It was his name.
"And may I ask yours, m'lady?"

Damn, she had two names and neither were she could share lightly."Um, Jezabel..." she said,"I'm Jezabel, I'd shake your hand but... Heh" she glanced down at her hands,"What are you to the rest?"

"The.....rest?..." Oliver hesitated. How far had his 'reputation' preceded him?

She raised an eyebrow,"Alright... Fine, if you don't want to tell... Everyone has their secrets" clearly no clue about his life, he was an absolute stranger to her.

Realizing he was safe at least for now, Oliver gave an inward sigh. " 'The rest' call me The Pied Piper..." he admitted quietly.

"What's so bad about that? I mean outside of the 'Pied' bit," Robin asked curiously, taking note of his reluctance to reveal his full title.

Oliver looked her over, studied her. She seemed trustworthy enough... "Can...may we get to the brooke first, m'lady? "I...shall explain it there.."

"sure..." not sure what difference it would make out here in the middle of the woods, but she abided. It's not like she couldn't relate. She continued with him to the brook.

The Piper led Jezabel to the brooke. Sure, it was closer to the main path than he wished it but while she washed her hands, he scouted a ways up and down the road. Clearly he was on the run. And quite nervous...

The cuts still stung quite a bit, but Robin managed to get all the dirt out so they wouldn't get infected. When she finished she trotted over to Oliver,"Do you still have those bandages...." he seemed anxious, something was clearly wrong. Was he runninh from something? Not a terribly uncommon thing to her..."Oliver?"
She stood next to him following his gaze up the path,"Is everything okay?"

Oliver spun quickly as Robin spoke. He then let out a breath. "I'm sorry..." He took out the bandages and wrapped her hands. "I...I'm being pursued...maybe it's best you don't stay around me......"

"Pursued?" robin was about to inquire as to why, when she heard approaching horses, she glanced down the path to see royal guards running toward them down the path.
Robin grabbed his hand pulling him into the bushes, had they seen them? "Try not to move..." she silently drew her bow...
