Red Dead Redemption: Reborn
Chapter 9
Grave
After Nigel left, I decided to pay Bonnie a visit and see what she has been off to.
"Well, it's good to see you again John, how was Vegas?" She asked me as I leaned on the fence.
"Well, Vegas is a nice place to be. I have a feeling that it's going to be a big city in the future. As it turns out, the sheriff wanted me to check out another town called Reno to help them out with some deeds. After that was done, I took down one of Ross's men and headed back for Vegas when I heard the news of Landon Ricketts getting murdered." I said as Bonnie came down and patted my back.
"Yeah, I heard about his death, came a shock to me because he was a good man for so many years after he decided to get away from being a bandit." She said as I turned the other way.
"It's funny how I'm trying to do the same thing but all I got in return was a body full of lead. All I tried to do is redeem myself from my past and all I got was nothing but death knocking on my window. So I heard that Edgar Ross was going to accept a medal for killing Ricketts in Blackwater and that's where I'm going to go very shortly." I said to her as I whistled for my horse.
"John Marston, what are you crazy? Your going to confront Ross and his men and I know for a fact that they might know that your still alive. If they even see a small sight of you there, your going to be killed for sure." Bonnie said.
"Well Bonnie, you should know by now that I'm not the kind of man to wait for something to happen. All my life, I had to take action first before and I will do it again when I take down Ross once and for all. He killed too many lives that I helped and now, I'm taking his." I said but Bonnie held on to my horse.
"John, you have to think about this. Ross must be surrounded by hundreds of men protecting him when he is getting his award. Isn't there any other way that you can take him out without harming you?" She asked me as I placed my hand on my chin.
"Well, I have ways on getting what I want and I think I know of a perfect plan to do so. Just stay here Bonnie, I will return once this is all over." I said as I grabbed my horse and rode off towards Blackwater. I knew the trip is only going to take me a few hours to get there but I knew I had to think of a plan before I get there. If I scope out the land a bit, maybe there is a way I can killed some of Ross's men before I can take any other means of action. Passing Thieves Landing, I continued forward as I got closer and closer to Blackwater. I passed by a few crosses along the road and I stopped. I have taken this path hundreds of times before and this is the firs time I've seen any crosses here. Something must've happened here.
I took off my hat and lowered my head. It's best to pay respect to those who have died. It's not often I do this but, I did lose my family a few weeks back. The pain in my heart is already starting to hurt more now then ever. I placed my hat back on my head and rode towards Blackwater, hoping to leave behind my past for good.
