A 'Lone Outlaw

The Long Way -Continued-

I've rode on Star for what feels like an eternity before the Sun finally shows itself over the canyons. I saw as the sun slowly starts to beam down on us sweat starts dripping from my face. I take my hand and brush off the sweat and continue riding star to whatever place I shall find. After a few minutes of riding I finally come across something signaling me that Civilization is near. I ride up beside it and it turns out to be a campfire it looks like it's been recently put out. I think to myself that they might have left in a hurry maybe something might have caught them. I look ahead down the path and I see a body of a man that's been recently killed laying in the middle of the road. Vultures are eating his limbs and meat. I ride beside the dead body and I she away the vultures. The body looks like it been recently killed by a gunshot wound clean through the neck. The body is stomach was ripped open intestines were spilled out onto the ground and giving an awful week as bugs eat it and more vultures try and eat the rest of the body. I spit on the body. I continue riding not looking back at the body. After a few minutes I come across a human that seems to be alive but as I ride closer I soon realize the dark Truth. The body had been impaled from the neck and the spear had been dug into the sand so the body could be standing to ones who don't see the spear. The body had no eyes instead they were dangling out of their sockets. Bottom jaw of the bodies was hanging on by a thread of meat. I cough and I continue riding. After a few hours of the bright hot sun beaming down on me I see an actual human walking down the path towards me. They were dressed up and what looks like a pioneer's outfit. They had a coon skin cap on, but yet they didn't have any boots or shirt just a hat and jeans. I call out to the weary traveler and he stops and looks at me. I soon realize that the figure had no eyes nor ears. I get startled and I start panicking. I continue thinking to myself to continue on. The figure starts walking to me at a fast pace. I call out even though they had no ears to hear me. They don't stop. There soon fast Pace turns into a full-on Sprint towards me. I draw my gun continuing to yell at them to stop running. They don't and I pulled the trigger. My bullet goes clean through their neck and they drop down to their knees and collapse. I lower the gun and put it back in my holster and I continue riding. After a few weeks I come across a small town. It doesn't seem deserted though it feels extremely empty. I see a few people walking around and riding horses I took my hat to them even though they look at me they don't respond I shake it off and I stop thinking to get a drink to replenish my strength. I stop in front of the old saloon house at the corner of one of the streets and I hop off star. I walk inside of the saloon. There's dried up blood stains on the floor and on the saloon doors. Chairs had been flipped over tables have been broken only a few people stand in the salon two of them are passed out and some are standing around, talking to one another and a quiet ton of voice while the rest are sitting on chairs or against the wall asleep. Which is what I presume. I take off my hat as I walk up to the bar and I slept down two gold coins and I asked the bartender for a drink.
