It was almost sundown and the willie brothers were saddling up on their horses and their uncle had plans. " Alright boys, get ready cuz we're supposed to be robbing the Keller ranch tonight and hurry". " Ok uncle slim. " they replied with a smile. Alameda Slim jumped on his Buffalo steed Junior and rode off into the night follwed by his nephews. It was a long way away before they could reach their destination, and unfortunately Bill wasn't the patient type. " Uncle Slim are we there yet? " complained Bill. " Hush your mouth and I'll tell ya when we get there! " he yelled. Bill had his brothers looks, personally, some of their interests but not much patience. He wished his horse would go faster but him and his brothers were told to not go ahead of thier uncle.
After an hour and 46 minutes they met Rico. " Howdy Rico, still doing the dirty work for me? " Slim said with an mischievious grin. " Yep been covering for ya today and I'm supposed to be finding Evil Eye Joe and put him behind bars sooner or later. " said Rico. " Anyway thanks partner and payday is coming soon, and say is anyone outside or near the Keller ranch involved with the law or anything like that? " said Slim. " No sir." Rico replied. Bill couldn't wait another minute of stalling he wanted to russle that cattle and go home. After a while of the two men talking Slim and his nephews rode their animals saying goodbye to Rico.
Bill wishing he was already at home and in his bed dreaming of having fun with his brothers and living with Slim in a fantasy where they are the most powerful cattle rustlers in the west. Then when bill was about to ask if they have arrived, Slim stopped and climbed off of Junior. " There it is boys, our cattle and our money and my land once I sell the cows to Mr. Weasley. " he said. " But Uncle Slim can't we do this tomorrow night, I'm tired. " Bill complained. Slim rolled his eyes and yelled out " Will you stop your moaning and get to work! All 3 of you, check the perimeter around the ranch and make it snappy! " The 3 boys put on their disguises and got busy. " Hurry up, we ain't got all night." Slim added. " Gil you should check if anyone is still up in that house over there." said Phil " I'll check around the pasture and Bill that leaves you with the barn." " But it looks like there ain't nothing in it." said Bill. " Uncle Slim still wants us to our job." Phil replied in and tone. They split up each going different ways. Bill wasn't fell himself he had been through a day of more work and being yelled at by his uncle. Bill loved his horse and his family, but not his uncle's yelling and hitting. Bill entered the barn when he took one step in, he tripped. It was too dark and he had to hurry he knew his uncle didn't like it when certain people gooffed around and that certain people was him and his brothers. Bill got back up and tried to look for a source of light, until he picked up something that he thought was a Lantern. " I hope it's some kind of light device. " he said to himself. He turned it on and the dark cold barn was now lit up and bright. He looked if there were any cows. Instead only supplies. He met with his brothers and they reported back to their uncle. " Everyone is asleep in the house unlce Slim. " said Gil. " All cows are in the pasture sleeping. " said Phil.
" Good now how about you Bill, do you have anything to say?" Slim asked. " I only found supplies in the barn. " Bill replied.
" Good now, let's do this. " Alameda started to use his secret weapon ... yodeling! Once he started all the cows in the pasture woke up and heard his song, they were hypnotized. Then Slim and his nephews lead the cattle out of the ranch. The boys made sure none of the cows were left behind. After a long trip the group and the herd of cattle were inside of Echo mine. Bill was happy and tuckered out he immediately went to his room got in his bed and slept. He started to dream, but this dream was different than his others. He saw a lady with blonde hair in her eyes in a pink dress. She called his name before he could do anything he woke up. Beside him was Phil and Gil. They had a word look on their faces.
" Bill, you were saying mighty odd stuff." said Phil. " We thought you were having a nightmare! " added Gil. " I'm ok now fellas, it was just a dream... and weird one. " Bill said in a calm manner. "
Howdy everyone it's me. I just wanted to say thanks for reading hope you like it. I thought this would be a good place to leave off if you don't mind, there will more soon see ya.
