Artur was abruptly awoken after hearing mary scream. He quickly scrambled but got the butt of a rifle to his face.
"You like that Boy-O?" said an irishmen.
Arthur recovered and look up to see a man with a carbine shoved in his face, Arthur responded to the man with a sour look.
"Alright feller we take the girl and all the money you got on you and we let you live." The man said while cycling his repeater.
"No deal." Arthur said as he quickly grabbed the man's rifle pulling it along with the man to his level and landing a punch to his face then grabbing the man's gun from his hands the turning to man, who was struggling to rape mary and blew his brains out the arthur got up and used the butt of his rifle to smash the unconscious goon's head in.
"Mary are you ok?" Arthur said.
Mary sat there silently covered in the man's brain matter.
"Mary!" Arthur screamed.
"So. This is the type of life you live?" Mary said.
"N-No dutch and us aren't like them! Sure we rob and kill but we dont hurt people who dont deserve it." Arthur pleaded.
"I cant live like this Arthur. What happened last night happened but you'll never change I know that now. The way you just beat that man to death. Its almost like you seemed to enjoy it." She said collecting her clothes and cleaning her self up.
"What? I just saved you from God knows what and you judge me?" Arthur said.
"Listen arthur it's been real nice but I really have to get home." Mary said walking away.
"Do you want me to walk you back?" Arthur asked but mary just kept going, so Arthur got dressed and mounted his horse and made way back to camp, arthur was never the talking feelings type but he needed to talk now and dutch was the philosopher on life so maybe he could help him arthur thought. Soon arthur arrived to marston greeting him.
"Who goes there?" Marston said popping out of bush.
"Its me. Arthur." He said.
"Oh hey. Missed you last night, Javier bring back a boar and we had a little party." Marston said.
"Ah, dutch around?" Arthur said dismounting his horse.
"At his tent as always, I think he got himself on of those new philosophies of life and hell books." Marston said.
"Thanks, my life feels like hell about now." Morgan said.
Arthur trudged through camp until he came to dutch's tent.
"Arthur my favorite son! We missed you last night." Dutch said standing up and lying his boom on his chair.
"Dutch... can we talk?" Arthur said removing his hat.
"Always arthur what's eating at you son?" Dutch said.
"Dutch I ran into mary last night, do you remember her?" Arthur said.
"Of course you too where so young and in love, She made you melt into your boots every time she entered the room. Too bad she broke things off over our lifestyle." Dutch explained while packing the pipe arthur had gotten him.
"Well I helped her with something then one thing to another we ended up in bed then this morning we where jumped by O'driscol's and I saved her but she didnt want it and stormed off." Arthur said.
"Well that's interesting but what is the real problem?" Dutch said.
"Well." He leaned in "I think I still love her and I dont know what to do.".
"Well Socrates said "The hottest love has the coldest end.", maybe all these years it just wasn't meant to be." Dutch said.
"Well it just feels so right and so wrong but I think I'll be ok." Arthur said.
"Of course you will. You got all us and together we are unstoppable." Dutch said patting his back.
"Maybe I'm destined to meet some tahitian beauty." Arthur said.
"Keep dreaming arthur because it will soon be a reality my brother." Dutch said.
