Red Dead Redemption 2 (Arthur Morgan x Female!Reader)

Paradise Mercifully Departed

Arthur had arrived at the fortress to find the gang arguing with Hercule over the boat he promised them. Hercule told them they couldn't leave yet because Fussar had ordered a ship from Cuba to come and attack. Immediately after this, Hercule and the gang were told to get on the roof quickly, and they spot a large warship just offshore.

The group get in cover and fire at the mass of soldiers who were running up the beach. Arthur helped Hercule push a cannon into position so they can destroy the warship, but the fortress was breached soon after. Arthur, Hercule, and Dutch headed down to fend off the approaching soldiers while the others remain on the roof to guard the cannon.

As more men begin to row in on boats, Arthur assigned Dutch and Hercule different positions to defend. Once the remaining soldiers had been eliminated, Arthur and Hercule returned to the roof and use the cannon to destroy the ship.

With the battle over, Arthur was told to meet the others at the boat so they can prepare to head home, while Micah meets with the captain and Dutch and Bill gets Javier.

And that's where Arthur is now, at the boat with Hercule and the others as Bill helps Javier in. "I thought I was dead for sure." Javier said as he gets on the boat. Then Micah comes up to them, back from his scouting mission. 

"Boys, we got a real problem." He said and the others give worried looks to him. "Nice Mr. Fussar don't want us going nowhere. He knows just who we are. If he can keep us here for a few more days, well..." Micah said and the others exchange looks.

"And what about the captain of the ship here?" Dutch asked him. "They got him trussed up like a hog. Guards all over the place. Got us surrounded with gun positions, so when we try to sail out, he's going to blow holes in us." Micah replied and Dutch growls under his breath. "This feller is really beginning to try my patience." He grumbles. "And he ain't even had you
tortured yet." Arthur said.

"I like the man's style. He's thorough, nasty and vindictive." Micah said but he notices the look the others are giving him so he clears his throat. "However, in this instance, I don't see we got any alternative, but we go and free our friendly captain and destroy the artillery." He said. 

"For once, I agree with you." Arthur said to him, nodding, then Dutch turns to Hercule. "Hercule?" He asked. "Oh, I'll fight Alberto Fussar every day I can." Hercule said, proudly. "Alright. Bill, you're going to guard Javier on the ship here. Micah, Arthur, let's get to work. Hercule, we follow you." Dutch said and they start to walk away.

"En allez, this way." Hercule said and they head off into enemy territory.

"Quick, let's get up around the back of that artillery post. There's two guards." Micah tells them and they get around the back. "Arthur, come on. Get your knife ready. You take out the first guy and I'll get the other one." Micah orders Arthur and the two take out the guards, stealthy.

"Okay, clear. Let's plant the explosives." Micah said as he and Arthur go over to the cannons and place the dynamite in them. "You got it secured properly, cowpoke?" Micah asked him. "I think so." said Arthur as he looks over his work. "Knowing you, I have my doubts." Micah said. "Shut up, Micah." Arthur growls and they light the fuse just as Micah starts to laugh.

"Come on, run!" Micah yells and he and Arthur run some feet away when the dynamite goes off. Then some of Fussar's men start to come at them and the men started to fire back at them. "Look out above us! On the roof!" Hercule shouts as they ducked behind some cover and continued with the gunfire.

"Come on. There's another set of cannons up ahead." Hercule shouts and they move forward then take cover every time Fussar's men fired back. Then they pop up out of cover and kill the guards as fast as they could. "I'll get the dynamite rigged on these cannons. There'll be more coming." Micah said as they come up a hill and Micah runs over to the cannons.
