Sadie Adler X OC

The Return

(Short disclaimer: Hey everyone, sorry for the huge delay in parts of this but life has been super busy I haven't had time to write. Some of you have asked when there will be a kiss and I will try make it as soon as possible but I want enough time for Sadie to have mourned and grieved Jake before I have them even think of doing anything like that. Anyway, my apologies again and I hope you enjoy. Thanks for all the continued support, it really means the world to me. <3)

A few weeks passed by and during the few weeks a few of the missing gang members that had been missing since the Saint Denis bank robbery had begun to turn up and the spirit of the gang was on the rise again somewhat despite the many doubts and fears that still haboured in some of their minds. One of these days, Sadie was sitting out front of the sleeping quarters building with Abigail and Pearson who were busy preparing some freshly hunted deer for food when Arthur returned to the camp.

It had been weeks since anyone in the gang had seen him but they were thrilled as everyone in the building, whether awake or not, woke up and celebrated his return by giving him a nice plate of stew which was also his first proper meal in weeks. Arthur himself looked terrible, as did a lot of the gang members who came back from Guarma and he had began coughing as well but nobody really commented on it. As the day turned into night, Dutch returned. As he opened the door to the building, looking rough and ragged...he was met with gasps of shock as well as joy at his return and the gang felt almost whole again. Their leader was back and they instantly explained their situation to them.

"Things have been rough for us Dutch, we thought you boys would never come back and we have barely been surviving here." Tilly said shortly followed by Herr Strauss. "It was Mrs Adler who helped us to escape Dutch, not long after the robbery the Pinkertons showed up but she brought us here and her and Charles drove away the undesirables that were living here." Dutch looked around at all of them and moved his hands in a settle down like motion and looked at Sadie.

"Mrs Adler, we are all indebted to you, thank you." He said and a few of the gang members began clapping even Simon who was standing to the side leaning against a wall. Sadie just gave a shy smile and waved her hand dismissively in front of her, Dutch was then served a meal and cleaned himself up and shortly after started to give a small speech as he always did about sticking together and how they will survive. The door then burst open and in came Bill Williamson looking dumb and angry, which was normal for him. "Well here you is, now I asked just about everyone I could find and eventually someone pointed out that you fools was hiding out here. Shit! Get me a drink or something!" He yelled looking now directly at Sadie as if expecting her to do it for him since she was a woman. 

Sadie's brows furrowed and she glared at him, that anger in her eyes burning brightly. "Get yer own damn drink!!" She yelled back at him, Dutch then quickly spoke to intervene "In our absence, Mrs Adler has been taking care of things around here..now sit down." He said directly to Bill. Bill grumbled lowly and went to sit down before...

"This is agent Milton of the Pinkerton Detective Agency, we know you are here. Drop your weapons and come out or we will open fire." Milton exclaimed and the gang inside began to panic already. "I'll count from 3...3...actually screw it, just let them have it." Milton stated before the bullets started raining down on the buiilding, everybody almost immediately got down, the men grabbing their weapons whilst Sadie and Arthur crawled out the building and went to another building next door in an attempt to ambush them.

The gattling gun reigned down fire on the building the rest of the gang was in and Milton spoke again, fortunately Arthur and Sadie had made it to the other building and Arthur grumbled "This guy is really beginning to irritate me..! Yah!!" He yelled as he kicked the door open and began opening fire on the Pinkertons, with Sadie supporting him they quickly took out the gattling gunner and a few of the other men such as Charles, Bill and Simon came out the other shed and began fighting back.

It was a pitch black night and it was difficult to see but with the amount of gunfire and gunsmoke, you would have thought it was a party of fireworks. At the end of it all, bullets and bodies of Pinkerton agents lay everywhere and Dutch came out of the building with Micah and Abigail. "Thank you, Arthur." Dutch said dismissing the others who helped. "Well Bill and Sadie helped too. So what now, Dutch?"

Dutch scratched his head and stood there "Well we can't stay here, we will have to go North because we can't go anywhere else." Abigail then spoke "And what about John Dutch, there's talk of hanging him!" Dutch sighed "Not now, Miss.." 

"But..!" Abigail exclaimed clearly worried "Not now.." Dutch responded walking off to the building again with Micah. Arthur stood there with Sadie coughing a bit and Abigail came to them both "Please you two..you got to do something. It will break my- it will break the boy's heart." She said looking away clearly referring to Jack.

Sadie put her hand on Abigail's arm "We will." Abigail nodded with thanks and walked off inside again to check on Jack. "Alright, I'm going to go see how we can try rescue this bastard." Arthur looked at her "Now?!" Sadie gave him a look of an attitude written all over her face "Yes now, meet me at Doyle's Tavern when you can." She said to him before walking off and leaving camp almost immediately. 

As she was readying her horse that she had recently acquired named Bob, Simon came over to her "Hey, Hey..where are you going?" He asked concerned by the recent developments that had just happened. "Me and Arthur are going to figure out how to rescue John." Sadie responded mounting up. "Let me help, I can-" Simon began speaking but Sadie cut him off quickly "No, stay here and help out, your a good man and can protect them, they need you here now. Help them find a new camp, help Charles. Just be safe Simon." She said and rode off instantly after not giving him a chance to respond.

Simon sighed "..You too..." He muttered softly under his breath and went to go help clear out all the dead bodies and help pack so the gang could move again soon. He didn't think about it much nor did he understand it either, but that woman had one hell of an effect on him. One that he simply could not get rid off nor could he explain it...

As daylight rolled around, the gang was almost ready to leave and Arthur had gone to meet with Sadie to see about rescuing John. Charles had found a location up north called Beaver Hollow right in the middle of Murfree Brood country so it was dangerous but at least nobody would come looking for them there. Now all there was to do was wait for Arthur and Sadie to return and they could leave.

(P.S. The fanart at the top is not mine but I really love it, it belongs to Kylee Danko on X. We are entering chapter 6 of the game next part and I am going to try burn through all the events quickly, hopefully in a part or two. I know this part might have not been the best read but id feel terrible if I didn't get something out before life gets busy on Monday with University again. Love y'all.)
