Chapter 7:
Kid Griffons In A Saloon
Meanwhile, a lot of motion has been going on in the town when Gallus, Ocellus, and Smolder have finally made it.
Seeing that the coast is clear, Gallus said, "Alright, guys. This is our chance, we are going in,".
The three looked around to see which way they should go as Ocellus gasped in amazement and said, "Guys, look at this. There are no fences to keep us in. What keeps the folks here from roaming?".
The Young 3 walked down the street as they have observed that the Griffons of the town are sticking together. They were surprised at the apparent calmness of everything.
"I believe they might be civilized or something. And it doesn't feel dangerous at all," Smolder guessed as they kept on walking through the town.
"You guys have nothing to worry about. It's perfectly safe for us to be out here," Gallus said, assuring them that the outside world is safe.
"I do gotta admit, this place sure is quiet and peaceful here. Just like it is back home," Ocellus said, seeing how the town is peaceful and quiet.
"I have to agree with you on that, Ocellus," Smolder said, agreeing with her friend. And she didn't usually agree with anyone with anything.
"Now remember, we must find the sheriff's office and ask him to give us two weeks," Gallus said, reminding them of the real reason why they're here.
"Speaking of which. Ocellus, do you see the sheriff's office?" Smolder asked, turning to Ocellus.
Ocellus raised her head and neck up to get a better view of the town to find the sheriff's office.
"Hmmm, I'm lookin', I'm lookin'. To be honest, I don't see it around here," Ocellus said as she tries looking around the town looking for the sheriff's office.
"Well, we gotta at least try to find it," Gallus said, knowing they will eventually find the sheriff's office in this town.
As they continue their search, the peace was ruined when a couple of young griffons light a stick of dynamite and it exploded. The Young 3 looked around as Ocellus asked, "What was that?!".
"Someone's blowin' up dynamite!" Smolder exclaimed, getting spooked by the sound of the dynamite.
The Young 3 went into a frenzy as multiple sounds boomed and echoed throughout the town and it kept them running. They all screamed as Gallus said, "Guys, Hit The Dirt!".
"Who lives like this?" Smolder asked as they ran down the street. She was once again wondering what she was doing there. And how the place could go from peaceful to noisy and possibly dangerous place.
Then they turned at a corner as Ocellus asked, "What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do? Seriously, what…are we…gonna do?!".
Gallus looked and saw something ahead and said, "Guys, look there's a star on that door!".
"Could it be the sheriff's office?" Ocellus asked as they ran through the door quickly.
"Only one way to find out!" Smolder replied as they entered the door.
But for their misfortune, it wasn't the door to the sheriff's office for they have entered a door that leads to a saloon.
Inside a saloon, a piano was played as three female griffons were trying to entertain the crowds. Though the crowd was bored by the show. They held their dresses while singing.
Saloon Griffons: Swivel your feathers,
Give 'em a grind
Shimmy and shake and leave your trouble be-
However, they didn't get to finish their musical number as Gallus, Ocellus, and Smolder barged in one stage. The Young 3 accidentally knocked the three griffons away and let out some screams. All six looked at each other before letting out their screams.
But some in the crowd seemed to love it as they started laughing. The adult female griffon running the saloon ordered the saloon griffons and said, "Get those kids off of the stage!".
The saloon griffons growled at the Young 3 as they get ready.
Ocellus leaned her head near her friends and said, "Uh, guys. I think we came in a bad time,".
"Charge!" the Saloon Griffons yelled as they ran at the Young 3.
"I'm out, bye!" Smolder said as she ran off the stage with a gasp.
"But I'm not. Bring it on!" Gallus challenged as he charged with a shriek. He wanted to prove he was as tough as a saloon griffon.
He and the biggest Saloon Griffon rammed into each other and tried to push each other off.
The piano player cringed when Smolder came running by and started playing a playful music as Smolder stepped into a spittoon and grimaced from the feeling. She then knocked into a table and such while the crowd laughed their heads and feathers off.
Ocellus ran from the older Saloon Griffon as she shouted, "How dare you, young one?!".
But their shenanigans caused props to fall or roll away as they ran across the stage.
Now Ocellus is wearing a painting around her neck when she came back across and looked back. Ocellus jumped back when the Saloon Griffon chasing her, ran past her with a tarp on her head.
Gallus and the other Saloon Griffon continued to wrestle with each other before Gallus used his strength to shake the Saloon Griffon around. The Saloon Griffon screamed before she was flung across the saloon.
She landed on the bar and slid across it, destroying many of the drinks and such as she went by, she slid right into a patron and they landed on the floor with the dancer on his lap. But the Griffon was shocked to discover that it wasn't a girl griffon but a male griffon.
"Daddy?!" The Patron said in surprise.
"Son!" the male Griffon disguised as a girl said.
The two griffons at the one table continued to laugh their feathers off from the show. Until one slapped the other on the back really hard and caused him to lose his dentures. The false teeth flew through the saloon and caused patrons to jump out of the way. The dentures landed in Smolder's mouth and she spits them back out. The dentures knocked another patron's hat off before landing in another griffon's drink.
"I say," The Griffon said, being confused.
The griffon, whose hat was knocked off, walked over to him before punching him in the face. The griffon landed on the table with the two laughing patrons and they started to punch him in the face and biting his leg.
"Aaah! Oh! Ow! What Did I Do? Especially to you two?" the confused Griffon asked between punches as he glares at the two.
The saloon erupted into a fight as there were many opponents going at each other. When she had enough, the Saloon Griffon boss took manners in her own feathers. She was able to round up the Young 3 and pushed them out.
"That does it!" She shouted.
The Saloon Griffon boss had a little trouble getting them out. But she gave them a good push and shouted as Gallus, Ocellus, and Smolder tumbled down to the ground, "Talon it on outta here, kids! Go on!".
"Oh. Come back! That was the best dang show we ever had!" one of the Patrons said as he ran out.
"Aw, you have been on the trail too long, you old coot," the Saloon Griffon Boss said as she pulled him back by his collar.
