Modern Day Red Robin Hood
With the advent of twenty fourth century, a buzz was around the world about the adventures of this man, who was the personification of social conscience? He was not just a man but also a savior of the oppressed, a symbol of right over might. There was so much hoopla surrounding him not for the ideals he stood for but for being the prince of thieves, like the robin hood of folklores. Unlike our legendary Robin Hood he was not fortunate enough to seek solace and refuge in the woods, which is a rare entity these days, his abode was far from the earth but not very far, a planet known as Mars. Being a resident of the planet mars people conferred him with the title of modern day Red Robin Hood.
Red Robin Hood in a very techno savvy style of 24th century adopted the modus operandi of 14th century’s Robin Hood. By being a master of bow he preserved the true tradition of Robin Hood. He would move around with his IFO (Identified Flying Object) along with an army of men from Mars yet again in the tradition of Robin Hood’s Merry Men. In Present times Robin Hood’s enemy Sheriff of Nottingham was embodied in form of our US president. All his strategies to trap Robin Hood were in vain as Robin Hood continued to rob the hearts of unfortunate souls all over the world…
Robin Hood’s first adventure began by robbing McDonalds and he continued to rob McDonalds all over the world to feed the destitute kids on the streets. He even robbed Barbie dolls for the kids. He went on to rob Starbucks and Harrods and Selfridges of the world in his mission to end poverty. He often targeted Bill Gates with an intention to end his monopoly, he held him hostage for good 100 times. He supported Linux, the open source software and spent millions for its development. His other favourite target was Richard Branson whose aircrafts he often hijacked to make life simpler for those unprivileged souls stranded on the earth…
Like every hero’s story is incomplete without his ladylove, Robin Hood’s chosen one was Fuchsia, Fair Marian’s counterpart in modern day Robin’s life. She was the princess of Nottingham whose strategic alliance was fixed with the Prince of Wales. Our red Robin Hood detained the Prince of Wales on Venus….
Finally US president created an interesting trap for Robin Hood; he announced Fame Universal Archery Championship to challenge him. Robin Hood succumbed to the temptation and won the championship and tasted fame but got trapped by the US army. Robin Hood negotiated his release with the president by offering him fifty percent control on Mars. Robin Hood was released and honoured as the vice president of US. He was given the special title of Earl of Washington thereby pioneering monarchy in America. Death didn’t end the life of Robin Hood but when his mission got wrapped in his vision to earn fame, Robin Hood died and the life of a man with a quest for power began….
Perhaps the fact is legend of Robin Hood is immortal in folktales but not in the world that is ruled by eminence and riches.
