Cassidy and Charles raced side by side, Cassidy on Scout, Charles on Taima heading into the town of Blackwater and not even half way into town, the buildings in sight, they could already hear the sound of gunfire knowing it was coming from the bank and that they were already their.

"Well clearly these boy are more efficient than you are Charles but I like it that way. Just stay who you are Charles, forget what I said." Cassidy said as Charles gave her an offended look before rolling his eyes and pulling back on the reins getting off his horse Taima with beside his horse was Cassidy planting her boots on the solid ground after getting off her horse.

As they rushed in the bank firearms drawn they were quick to put them away when it was only Arthur who was undoing the safes planted up against the wall.

"Arthur where's the others?" Charles asked while Cassidy looked around for the others until she spotted them down the street.

"Charles... I found em', and they got company." Cassidy said as she saw Dutch, with John and Sean all riding on a trailer barely held together with wood and heavy cargo in the back.

"Let's go. Arthur stay here and ride back to camp as soon as you got the money." Charles ordered as Arthur sighed.

"Can't you see that's what I'm doing?! Now your sounding a lot like Dutch, Mr. Smith." Arthur said as Charles quickly turned around, Cassidy lifting herself onto her horse and catching up to Dutch and the others.

"Him and me have nothing in common Arthur Morgan! You crazy son of a bitch." Charles said as he walked off getting back on Taima and catching up to Cassidy who managed to shoot down the people chasing them and were on the way back to the camp.

"Those god damn o'driscolls! they just won't let us get away with a bank robbery for once." Dutch said as Cassidy rolled her eyes not evening knowing shit about the o'driscolls but whoever they were, she didn't want to know.

"Dutch the only reason their after us is because of you, they're after you Dutch." John stated.

"You shut your trap Mr. Marston, I already god damn know their after me, and if they're after me their after the rest of us so cut the chatter and let's get back to camp alive, where's Mr. Morgan?!" Dutch asked.

"He's finishing up with the money, he'll met back up with us at the camp." Cassidy said as everyone turned to look at her, everyone but Dutch and Charles.

"What the hell are you doing here Miss Ranger?" John asked.

"Blame it on Dutch, he's the one who said she could tag along." Charles said as everyone looked at Dutch while Cassidy laughed.

"Dutch why did you invite Miss Ranger of all people?! We barely ever bring a Miss with us on any mission." John whispered in Dutch's ear.

"This is just to test things out for her. We did that with Arthur too you know, she's getting the same treatment as everyone else is." Dutch said as John rolled his eyes and stayed quiet until they reached the camp however Cassidy decided to continue past the camp, and Charles stayed.

"Whatcha you doing Cassidy? We should head back to the camp and get rest before sundown."

"I'm sure a little trail ride wouldn't hurt, would it Mr. Smith? Or do you still prefer Charles?" Cassidy asked curiously, Charles rolling his eyes flipping his thick black hair back from it resting on his shoulder.

"I'm just going to make up to you on what you call me, just don't be rude, and don't be shy either." Charles adds.

"Well, first, I'll never be rude, unless you get my drunk, I can't promise I'll be nice, and being shy was never one of my personalities, like I said, I like things fast." Cassidy explains as Charles grins with a nod looking ahead to see mountains and a river stream.
