Well now, Seems you're making it even farther into the Story of Red Dead Redemption…Suppose you're interested in our Protagonists' little adventures…only…sooner or later…they won't be so little. Within each and every one of us there is a dark side…a monster chained up in shackles. Caged inside like a beast of burden. It wants out and it will always want out. Sometimes its a man…sometimes its a monster beyond reckoning.

Sometimes we all wonder what monsters are out in the world…or the ones that are within…Within our souls…within our hearts…within our bodies. Perhaps said Monster will always find a way to escape…whether that monster is good or bad…how we approach it, is how it will approach us.


-Chapter 3- Revenge proves its own executioner

Arthur Morgan, Micah Bell, and Sadie Adler rode down the road on their horses. Which galloped at a steady pace. Arthur and Micah were in it for the money…but Sadie Adler on the other hand… wanted nothing more than Vengeance. It was all she could think about…after seeing her husband gutted in front of her…his insides ripped out and tossed aside like trash. The hysterical laughs of the men around her. The ways they touched her…where they touched her…and what they did to her…pinning her down to the point where she could do nothing about it. It was three days of hell…in her own home…she had been used as a toy to them…merely entertainment when one of the men got bored.

And when one started doing it…the whole lot of them joined in. Colm O'Driscoll was there on the scene. Though he never used her, he sure beat her. Beating her to the point where she could barely stand. Asking for anything involving what her husband had done. She didn't tell them anything…mainly because there wasn't anything to tell them. But Colm O'Driscoll didn't believe her. He beat her harshly. Then about a day before Arthur, Micah, and Dutch showed up, Colm had left.

But it was Arthur who she trusted the most of any of them in the gang. Micah, she was okay with, He had his moments of being trustworthy, but nowhere near as good as Arthur or Dutch. Dutch she respected, he accepted her into the gang after a sniper had shot a lantern through the window…setting her home ablaze. Dutch also had a liking for her. Seeing much potential and promise about her. Arthur…Sadie had a soft spot the moment she saw him. He saved her life…comforted her when he could've just left her. But he didn't. He was a selfless man. Despite Arthur calling himself a bad man…there was a good man under that skin. When he came out…he was like a completely different person…in a good way.

"We're comin' up on the town, act natural," Arthur said out loud as he slowed his horse a little, Micah and Sadie slowed theirs as well. It was currently 7:00 a.m. there were a few people out and about on the muddy street. Some of the folk grew very suspicious of Arthur, Sadie, and Micah. Not knowing that it was even them.

"Let's keep the horses here, make sure you gotchu're guns," Arthur said as he dismounted his horse. Micah and Sadie dismounted theirs. Sadie put her Carbine Repeater on her back. Micah holstered both his Lemat Revolvers. Arthur took the lead, with Sadie to his left, and Micah to his right, both behind him.

"Alright, we make this quick, try to avoid using too much guns, we wanna stay silent on this," Arthur said.

"All I got is my knife," Sadie said calmly, trying to stick close to Arthur. Arthur then pulled out his Tomahawk and handed it to Sadie.

"Here, take this, it's better than that knife of yours," Arthur said. Sadie looked at it, she took it reluctantly. She looked at Arthur…seeing his gorgeous blue eyes looking at hers. She found herself staring at them…they reminded her…of her Jakey…They both looked at each other for a long moment until…

"Hey, Hellfire, Cowpoke, what happened to fast and quick?" Micah said in a muffled voice as he leaned against the wall.

"Yeah, let's get on with this," Arthur said as he walked to the door. Sadie was still a little taken aback by Arthur's eyes, but she refocused and transitioned next to the door.

"How you want me to take it?" Arthur asked.

"Actually…why don't we let Hellfire here get the Cashier talkin', I'll rob the Register, You, Arthur, you'll back up Hellfire when the doctor gets the back room open," Micah said. Arthur looked at Sadie.

"You up for it?" Arthur asked.

Sadie looked at the door, looking through the window on the door, seeing the Doctor standing at the register.

"This bastard's doing business with the sons of bitches that murdered my husband…so in other words, gentlemen…With Pleasure," Saide said as she kicked down the door and went in.

Arthur and Micah looked at each other. Arthur shrugged and both of them went inside.

Already Sadie was onto the Doctor.

"Open the God Damn back room!" Sadie said as she walked around the counter. Micah closed the door behind them.

"Who are you, people!? What do yo-" The Doctor was cut off when he got hit by Sadie's Schofield Revolver. Ramming the butt of it down his face. Causing him to fall on the counter. Sadie quickly grabbed him by the collar of the shirt and threw him to the ground.

"You think I'm Fucking with you?! Open the damn back room!" Sadie said as she had her Revolver aimed at the fallen doctor.

"I'd say she's doing pretty well," Micah whispered to Arthur.

"Just get the Money out of the Register," Arthur whispered back to Micah. Micah laughed slightly.

"Sure thing," Micah said as he walked around the counter, pulled out a lock break, and started to go to work on the register.

The Doctor that Sadie was trying to get was terrified. Shaking tremendously.

"Please, you don't want to mess with them," The Doctor said. Sadie rammed her Schofield Revolver on his head again.

"I really think I do, now open it!" Sadie said as she grabbed him by the collar again and threw him into the space where the door would be.

Arthur pulled out his Cattleman Revolver.

"Micah, keep watch," Arthur said as he followed behind Sadie.

"Sir, yes, sir," Micah said happily. Opening the register, full of cash.

The Doctor knocked on the metal door.

"It's me, I-I have some drinks for you boys," The Doctor lied. Sadie still had her Schofield Revolver pointed at the Doctor. A Small cubby door slid open. Seeing a man standing there.

"Yeah, it's only the doc," The Man said as he closed the cubby door.

Sadie kept her Revolver leveled with the Doctor's head.

"Don't try anything," Sadie said. There were a few clicks on the door.

"This one's mine," Sadie said to Arthur, The door opened up, and The Doctor was about to move to the side, but Sadie smashed her Revolver in the back of his head. Knocking him. She then stormed into the room.

Arthur followed in pursuit.

"Quite the operation you got here, boys," Arthur said. There were at least three O'Driscoll men and a Woman. Sadie pulled out the Tomahawk that Arthur gave her and smashed it into one of the O'Driscolls' chests. She dragged him down to the ground, pulling out the Tomahawk and slashing it down on his skull.

The other two O'Driscolls pulled out their Double-Action Revolvers aiming them both at Sadie and Arthur. But Sadie and Arthur drew quickly. Arthur threw a throwing knife, whilst Sadie threw her Tomahawk. Both hit each of the O'Driscolls in the face. Causing them to both falls to the ground dead. The woman stood there shocked and slightly afraid. She grabbed a Revolver and aimed it at Arthur. But Sadie quickly shot the woman in the head.

"Shit…" Arthur cursed. The law would be on them soon.

"What? You knew this would happen," Sadie said to Arthur.

"Micah! How's it looking out there?!" Arthur shouted.

Micah peeked out the window. Lawmen were taking positions everywhere, one was on the top of the gun store, and three of them were on the street.

"Shit…I'm counting at least four lawmen already outside, Whatever you did really pissed them off," Micah said.

"God damn it, Looks like we won't get out of this town without a gunfight. Sadie, help me get some of the money," Arthur said as he started grabbing the money on the table. Sadie found a safe, she started to work on it.

"Micah! How we looking!?" Arthur shouted.

"Two of 'em are on their way in!" Micah shouted back.

"Sadie, I hope you're good at cracking vaults," Arthur said as he pulled out his Cattleman Revolver.

"Nearly, got it," Sadie said to Arthur. After a third click, the Vault opened, revealing at least $1,000.

"We hit the jackpot today, Gentlemen," Sadie said as she started collecting the money and putting it in her satchel.

"How much we talkin'?" Micah shouted from the front.

"There's a thousand here at least," Sadie shouted as all the money was put in her satchel.

"WOO! We sure did!" Micah shouted.

"Yeah, but now we gotta get outta this town alive," Arthur shouted. The Lawmen started shouting orders.

"Come out now and put your hands up! We know you're in there!" A Lawman shouted. The Sheriff didn't seem to be out there, only standard Lawmen. Arthur and Sadie got into the main part of the building, where Micah hid under a window with his Lemat Revolvers in hand. Sadie and Arthur quickly took cover themselves. Arthur cocked his Cattleman Revolver, whilst Sadie brought her Schofield out.

"So, what's the play, Arthur?" Micah asked Arthur. Arthur looked over the window he was hiding behind, seeing that at least two lawmen were on their way in and two others hiding behind cover.

"Micah, you take out the ones hiding behind the cover, Sadie and I will take out these other two coming in," Arthur said, hoping this plan would work.

"Alright, let's do this," Micah said.

"Come out now! We will not warn you again!" Another Lawman shouted. Two Lawmen started to move forward. Heading toward the door and preparing to kick it down.
