TOWN OF THE UNFORTUNATE BY CHERYL V.

TOWN OF THE UNFORTUNATE

“Hey, there; you’d better get out of my way.”

This guy, Mack, earned his reputation as a ten-shooter because this became his favorite phrase.

“Who do you, think, you’re talking to May I ask?”

Mack’s curling his fingers around his ten-shooter, ready to go after anyone including Pocket Face.

Jus then, his girlfriend, Marty, walked into the bar.

“Okay, Mack,” said Pocket Face, “meet my girl, Marty, here.”

As he took his girl by the hand, Mack grew even more furious.

Sensing what he was about to do, Pocket Face took his seat right next to Mark, not feeling afraid of him because he can’t trust her to back him up whenever he’s in big trouble.

So, then, Pocket Face’s eyes met Mack’s eyes. Suddenly afraid of Mack, his girl, Marty, upon noticing Fire Face, Mack’s buddy, enter the bar, Pocket Face said to Marty, “Let’s get out of here. Fire Face is one of Mack’s buddies. So, you don’t want to fool around with him. He’ll shoot your pants off if you’re not careful.”’

Not saying a word back to him, Marty fled out of the bar without ordering anything. Pocket Face followed her.

Upon reaching the desert-like sand outside, she said to her daughter, Mary, “C’mon, this is no bar to hang out at.”

So, the two jumped onto their horses, and then, took off through the desert not knowing where they were headed next.

As Fire Face peeked out a window in the bar, he then, said to Mack, “Guess who jus got on their way? Marty and her funky daughter, Mary, both wearing plenty of rouge on their faces.”

“What do you have on your mind, Mack?”

“I’ll tell you what we’ll do. Mary, always, seems, as though, she has to lean on her mom for help. C’mon, Fire Face, let’s give them what they deserve.”

As the two gulped down their beers, and threw their beer glasses, breaking a window, the two raced out of the bar.

Upon hopping onto a deserted stagecoach, Mack said to Fire Face, “I’m going to shoot them with all my might until they’re dead as doornails.”

So, then, Fire Face and Mack were on their way after Marty and her sleazy daughter, Mary.

A few miles later in the hot sun, Fire Face and Mack, finally, tracked them down. Now, that the stagecoach has caught up with the two women, suddenly, they were aware of the outlaws being on their tail.

Marty’s horse, then, fell over, but Mary’s horse was well on its way across the scorching desert.

So, upon Marty being, suddenly, aware of Fire Face and Mack, walking up to her as she’s getting back up onto her feet upon being thrown off her horse, she wouldn’t dare act scared around these two.

However, before she had any chance to draw her gun, these two guys were on top of her. And Fire Face was laughing, one mean laugh, as he and Mack were pointing their pistols at her face.

So, then, Mack said to her, “C’mon, with us over to the stagecoach,” as they half-dragged her over to it. While they were, Mack said to her with both him and Mack, having mean looks on their faces, “Don’t you dare say one word, or I’ll shoot you, dead.”

Upon reaching the stagecoach, Fire Face held onto her arms, as Mack tied rope on her hands and feet. As he was, she, really, felt, as though, her heart was jumping out of her chest.

Then, jus before the guys tossed her into the stagecoach, Mack tied this blue handkerchief around her mouth. So, she wouldn’t be able to scream, ‘bloody murder”.

However, she was so shocked, that she couldn’t even get a word out if she wanted to.

While Mack made sure, she didn’t try to escape through biting on the handkerchief or rope, Fire Face, upon spotting her pistol in the sand, ran over to where her horse, struggled to get up, he grabbed her gun out of the sand. Then, so, no one would find it, he tossed it into a river, nearby.

As he ran back to the stagecoach, he had to leap onto it because Mack was about to take off without him.

In the meanwhile, upon Marty, trying to chew on the handkerchief around her mouth, Mack slapped her on the face, leaving her, stunned. AS he did, she fell right into the stagecoach, and immediately, this shock knocked her out.

So, then, Fire Face kept a lookout for Marty, while Mack, after grabbing a hold on the horses’ reins, said to the horses, “Giddy up, let’s get moving.”

Not much time later, upon Mack and Pocket Face arriving at the other end of the river, the sand gave away. And all of them, then, lost their lives and drowned upon the stagecoach, sinking into quicksand in the desert. As this happened, all of them were thrown out of the stagecoach and into the river where they all ended up drowning.

Townsfolk and Marty’s daughter, Mary, never were able to find any of the bodies after a frantic search of the river, upon finding out, Marty was missing some hours later around dusk.
