Busted Gulch vol 6

It's Over (Ruechari)

It's Over

Billy couldn't believe

He was taken by surprise

After all this time

How did Tex Mex surmise

That Margarita was here?

"Margarita!" he looked at her

His heart filled with fear.

She was barely breathing

Billy tore his shirt

to plug up the hole

In came AJ with his pole

Prepared to do somethin' drastic.

Billy already had Margarita in his arms,

"I gotta get her to Doc right quick!"

"Tex Mex is down

but I don't know if he lives.

If he's still alive, tie him up

He's now our captive."

AJ did as Billy asked.

It was an easy task.

He too wondered how Tex Mex

Was able to guess.

When he drug him outside

He'd seen the TNT

"So, he planned to blow up the bakery."

It was all by chance

To the windows he did glance.

Well now that all was said and done

He brought both to 3Gun.

Tex Mex was placed in a cell

If he'd live it was hard to tell.

"Well, it looks like the battle is over

Let's hope we've won.

Tell Doc we'll need him here," said 3Gun

AJ left and went to Doc's and on the way

Seen the Marshal and Ms. Myna

"Good to see you both alive

Billy got Tex Mex too,

but Margarita...?"

Myna asked what had passed

And AJ said what he knew

She said she'd tell Doc.

As she wanted Billy to know

That they were safe, too.

"So it's over?" asked AJ.

The Marshal walked with him,

"It would seem that way."

Myna got to Dr. U. B. Well's

Passed on the message

Boy, Billy looked like hell.

Until she gave him the news.

Then Billy picked her up

swung her around,

"You know that this means?"

He asked as he put her

Back on the ground.

Myna shook her head

She hadn't a clue.

Billy's smile could not be contained.

"I'm now free to go after Rue!"
