During the episode the Exchange Buck and Jane seemed to have a certain something and I always wanted that to be explored further. This is my take on what happened after the wagons rode off at the end of the episode.

A new rider comes to the Pony Express with a secret. Soon Pip and Lou are accused of stealing from Mr. Tompkins' store and must prove their innocents. Buck goes missing. Later the Riders must find missing bonds that Ambrose was investigating.

Chris carries a dual pistol set, Jimmy is curious as why. When someone arrives from Chris's past Jimmy learns the reason.

One of Cody's remarks really upsets Kid. Or is it something else that saddens him? Finally, after nearly a decade the story is complete. Chapter 15 has been posted. *One of my first stories ever written, POV's in the first 14 chapters are all over the place but proved too much to correct. I hope the last chapter will make up for some of it.*

Crystal, Sleeping Wolfe, is my OC. She and Lou come from the same orphanage, they come to Sweetwater to hopefully become riders for the pony express. This is an origin story.

An outbreak of Scarlet Fever comes to the station and Sweetwater.

How Kid and Lou got back together was never very clear in season 3; this plot gap has always bothered me to no end... 10 years ago I started a the middle of that story when I got stuck. Now it's all coming together. The story of how Kid and Lou got back together, set just after 'Like Old Times'. (Caution, it's an unbeta-'ed WIP & just had a title change!)

Pioneers from Ohio? Believable. From the 21st century? Not so much. And one of them seems to know far more about the riders than they know about themselves. When a group of visitors with an unusual backstory show up on the outskirts of Sweetwater, things are bound to change. The only question is, by just how much?

Finally all the Pony Express gang have met up at Buck and Maggie's ranch for their long awaited reunion.

A mother's courage and sacrifice give Lou the strength she needs to overcome her past and keep the promise she made long ago.

In the space of a moment, life can change forever.

As the Civil War rages on, Lou finds herself in Richmond waiting for Kid, who has chosen to fight for the Confederacy. But Lou has never been one for waiting quietly, and her loyalty to Kid is tested by her own political convictions and those of the family she left behind in Rock Creek. And then, of course, there's Jimmy...

It's the worst day of his young life! Or is it?

A few short vignettes in the lives of Buck and Erin.

The final story in the Lady and the Law trilogy. Will Lou and Kid find their way back to each other? (This story was originally posted at 'Til Death Do They Part' many many years ago. I'm posting it here as part of my effort to archive all of my old stories in one place).

The sequel to The Lady and The Law and second story in the Lady and The Law Trilogy. Originally published at 'Til Death Do They Part' about 20 years ago. Minor edits made for spelling & grammar and to help the flow of the story.

First story in The Lady and the Law trilogy. AU: What if Teaspoon had fired Lou when he discovered she was a girl? (I originally wrote this story about 20 years ago. I'm going back through all of my old stories on as many of the TYR sites that I can still find live and archiving them here. This one is posted with minor edits from the original).

Lou has returned to Sweetwater with a shattered heart, a heavy burden, and a binding promise to bring a future she dreamed of to life. Too proud to reach out to a family divided by the war, she faces a still Wild West with range wars brewing. She will chance everything to carve a new life but risking happiness after losing everything may require more courage than she has left.

This is a sort of collection of one-shots. Some have continuing story lines; the chapters with journal entries is an example. Others are stand alone. Mostly focuses on Cody and a main female lead. Sometimes she is named, other times she is not. Please feel free to read, request, comment, and review. Hope y'all enjoy! Thanks for reading. UPDATED ON TUESDAYS
