Julia and Jesse made their way through the snowy valley, it had been four days since their encounter with Cal and Chris, they had just passed through the mountain and were heading towards New Hanover, As the pair rounded the corner they were instantly silenced by the presence of something around them.
Suddenly a lasso wrapped around Julia's torso, Yanking her off of her horse and back round the snowy corner. Jesse quickly dismounted her horse and pulled out her revolver, She quietly crept over to the corner where she could hear julia struggling and two men talking.
"stop struggling" she heard a deep voice shout followed by another male voice, "Dude? why can't we just talk to them?"
"I don't know maybe it's because I don't want another bottle or a bullet to my face" On that note Jesse jumped round the corner and shot the man tying up Julia, thankfully she hit him in the side.
"Jesus Fukin' christ!" he shouted falling back into the snow clutching his side allowing Julia to break free and draw her side arm and aim it at the other person.
That's when The girls noticed who they were, "you two bozos again" Julia hissed smacking Cal across the face. "what do you want from us huh?" Jesse added moving closer to Cal while Julia Disarmed Chris. Cal gave us a sour look before motioning to Chris "ask him I ain't getting hit again talking to you two" he said.
Chris gave a slight cough to attract the girls attention before slowly getting out a map and handing it over to them "You see we are actually not lawmen anymore' Chris said with a Londoner accent. "When you two fine ladies robbed that jewellery store back in san Francisco, A murder happened behind the store, we were framed for it. Anyway we killed whoever framed us and got ourselves into deeper shite. So we want to ask the infamous Julia and Jesse for help to get ourselves a large score from a train." the girls looked at one another in consideration before turning back and cocking their guns. "How much is in it for us?" Jesse asked. "10 grand each" Cal spoke now standing at his full height dwarfing all three others.
That was more than enough money to support the girls for two years. "Slowly they holstered their weapons and whistled for their horses. "You got yourselves a deal" Julia said as she mounted her horse. The boys whistled their horses over as well however before Cal mounted his horse he paused and looked to behind him, to see a pack of wolves closing in on them. "Wolves" he shouted as he jumped onto his horse and began to bolt towards the others.
However Jesse's Horse was spooked by Cal's Shout meaning that when the horses took off she was bucked off of her's. As she climbed to her feet and saw the wolves close in on her, she reached to her holster for her pistol, to realise it was on her horse still. Jesse slowly backed into the valleys wall with her hunting knife in hand.
The circle of wolves began to slowly shrink, their lips curled back showing their fangs. Jesse closed her eyes and waited for the end to happen. She heard the wolf jump, its mouth ready to tear out her throat, Followed by a grunt and a yelp followed by two gunshots.
Julia had saw from a distance what had happened Cal had turned around and raced back to save Julia while Chris had dismounted and drew a scoped rifle. I watched in fascination as Cal jumped off of his horse and FUKIN TACKLED A WOLF OUT OF THE AIR! He then performed a combat Roll and fired two pistol rounds into the beast killing it. He then turned and killed 3 more before the 4th one bit his arm and dragged him to the ground, As he held the beast away from his neck by wedging his arm in its mouth.
He then pulled out a sawed off shotgun out of another pocket and fired it into the wolf's head blasting out its brain. Cal pulled himself to his feet and prepared to fight the other two animals but was stopped by the cracks of two rifle shots. The wolves head's exploded as Chris fired his rifle he lowered the scope from his eye before walking down to the pair alongside Julia.
As Cal holstered his shotgun and recovered both his and Jesse's gun, he noticed that his hat and Jesse's was lying by her feet. He lumbered over gave Jesse back her gun before picking up both hats. He ruffled Jesse's hair before placing her hat on her head "not bad kiddo" Cal said as he placed his hat on with his good arm before turning and slowly limping towards the others. He made it a few feet before collapsing on the ground from blood loss. The snow was now crimson.
