The Red Wolf ~ A Red Dead Redemption story

Chapter 13: New York City

Some days had passed since the robbery as the Red Wolf was back in Jamestown. He had rested for a while, he had been treating himself plenty of times due to the amount of money he took from the train job. Such as taking baths every day, drinking wines and buying some new shoes for both of his horses. He had Old Girl with him as Gold Tiger was elsewhere. Though he has a hobby of hunting he does lust to do some bits of goodness every now and then. Since he had robbed more than he thought he went on to do what he likes doing. Donating to the poor.

Jamestown has a problem with some people not having enough money to pay bills. Whilst some are just getting by, there is very little help from the government to help them back in their feet. The charities and the church have been doing their best but even so, more work and money would be needed to lift those people out of poverty.

"Here, get yourself something to eat." Robert said to a man sat on a bench who looked worse for wear.

"Thank you Red Wolf." The man replied.

He walked through the main street greeting those who knew him as who he was and as he passed by he saw a familiar girl. It was one of the girls that Mac had robbed. She was a prostitute and had been for some time. She was of similar age to him and had been in business for a while longer than one should've. He went over to her and pulled out some bills from his pocket.

"Mam you can do better than to do this. Take it and start over. Or at least try to."

"Why thank you! If there's any other way for me to repay you." She seductively replied with a finger trailing his chin.

"No, just get a new job with the money you have. I insist upon it." Robert retorted as he gently pulled her arm away.

As he left her he saw a man in black clothing talking to another a greying man with a green coat standing outside the saloon. One of them looked like a face he'd seen recently but he didn't think much of it as to him they meant nothing. Although he eyed them up he did see a nice watch chain on one of them. He looked and looked around and saw a potential way to get the pocket watch.

"So where do you think John is?" One of them asked.

"I don't know, they might have run into a bad bit of luck. Or that he has Bill with him." chuckled the elder.

"Hosea, Bill ain't bright but he does have heart." The leader argued.

"If he had heart he wouldn't have left the army." The older one quipped whilst lighting a cigarette.

"Now that's a topic I don't want to step into-"

"You bitch!" Screamed a girl.

A girl outside the saloon started fighting with another gaining the attention of the older men as they looked with curiosity. Now a full on fight had come in as both girls were both fighting with each other very hard. With many slaps and punches going around even with the pulling of hairs. It was quite a sight that gained the attention of the town. Robert from the background had then from behind bumped into them like he accidently did it, when he didn't.

"Scuse me." He stated as he slipped his hand down to the man's fancy vest and took out the pocket watch and replaced it with a stone.

"Sure no harm done son." The unsuspecting man said as he and the old man went to defuse the girls fight. Though the man didn't see his face at all. Leaving the the outlaw feeling smug on the situation. Robert walked till he was outside the gun-store watching the diffusion going on as he looked at the new golden watch he stole.

"Nice watch" He said to himself, pocketing it remembering how he paid those girls off to start fighting and chuckling on about it. Though as he turned to collect Old Girl from a hitching post he heard the sound of the news paper boy shouting over and over again.
