Alternate ending to Arthur Morgan's story

Based on the events of Red Dead Online: "Six months in Sisika Penitentiary for a crime we did not commit. Now me and my brother are free, and the favor Mrs. LeClerk asks from us in exchange for our freedom couldn't have come in better time: to find and kill the motherfuckers who got us sent to jail, the same people who murdered her husband and blamed us for it." - Jesse's Journal

Maybe Dutch loved this woman, or maybe he just needed her to be around him. Whatever that was, nothing in their relationship was like before.

'I think it's this land that makes the men, as much as the other way around.' Life in New Austin wasn't for everyone, a tough, live by your teeth, lifestyle that makes men stronger or breaks them down. And that is no exception for the members of the cattle rustling Bollard Twins Gang. A look into the personalties of the Bollard Twins Gang and their lives as a family and criminals.

Arthur meets Albert Mason in the wilds and finds himself getting closer than he should. Stuck between the promise of a different life, and the life he has always lived, Arthur struggles to balance what he wants from what is deemed necessary.

Charles has a chance to say goodbye to a good friend.

John Marston goes looking for Arthur Morgan and finds someone else instead.

Florence doesn't know what to get Arthur for Christmas until Sadie suggests sex.

Both on the run. Both with more than they care to admit to lose. Both afraid for the future.

John Marston was able to escape the betrayal at Beecher's Hope but he still has to find his family and once again attempt to escape from the past he could never erase.

Arthur Morgan gets a second chance

(SPOILERS FOR RDR2) Tensions are high in camp after their return from Guarma. Dutch leads them in search of the big payout he so desperately wants but Arthur finds something worth more than any cash he would ever have.

Lily had been secretly in love with a man she has known for much of her life. Yet, with the Gang on the run, she must set her feelings aside to help get them all through the end.

One-shot, Enjoy! M for gore and language.

Forbidden love. AU

Madelaine was the daughter of a chemist who left a trail of blood from Opelousas to Valentine. Charlotte was bought by a gambler and left widowed three months after she arrived in Saint Denis. Juniper watched a bounty hunter burn her ranch with her father's money in his pocket. Anger burns inside of their bellies, and Dutch van der Linde is of a mind to let those flames loose.

After a raid, a new arrival to the camp could prove useful despite her ordeal. Can the Arthur charm win her round? Contains most of the RDR2 characters plus my own OC. I figured this could be a side mission that then ties into other story lines. If not it makes a good stand alone story.
