Chapter 1: The Start of a New Life.
When you read a Wild West story that has romance you get two different storylines. One, the new guy messes with the bad guy and is challenged to a shoot out at noon the next day. Or the bad guy kidnaps the girl and ties her to train tracks while an oncoming train comes by. What do both stories have in common? In the end, the good guy gets the girl. But, what if there was no good guy? No, there is one in this story, but he’s no good at it. What if the bad guy is the hero of our story? What if the bad guy get’s the girl (No not your kidnaps her and she develops stalkholm story). What if deep down, he’s really a good guy? Well, that’s what’s going to happen here.
The train arrived at the station around two o’clock one fine day. After a young woman stepped off the train with her bags in tow, the train automatically left with three new people on board. The girl was considered short for her age, probably 5 ft or 5 ft 1’inch. Her hair was a beautiful shade of light blue, held back by a simple hair band, her eyes were light brown and cute looking, her skin was fair and would probably burn easily on a scorching hot day. Her dress was simple and something befitting of this time period. Who was this girl you may ask? Her name was Levy McGarden. Her eyes sparkled the moment she spotted the dusty western town. A sign that needed some fixing up said: “Welcome to Magnolia! Population: 300.” What caught Levy off guard the most was that the numbers in this town were higher at one point but as time passed, the numbers decreased. What was going on here?
“I can’t believe I’m actually in Magnolia.” Levy admitted happily “But, it’s more deserted then I was expecting.” She was right. From the stories she heard as a child, the town was always bustling; but now the dusty old town was deserted, save a tumbleweed passing by.
As Levy walked around the town, she noticed most of the shops empty, save the funeral home. As she walked by, she noticed the man who was building the coffins staring at her, making notes and muttering things she could somewhat hear. About her height, width and what type of wood would be used to make her coffin. Levy gulped as she watched him begin to build what would probably be her coffin.
Okay Levy! she thought Breathe! Breathe! You just got here, it’s probably for when you die of old a- her thoughts stopped when a piece of paper smacked her in the face thanks to the wind.
“What the heck?” Levy asked herself. She took it off her face and read the poster:
“WANTED:
Gajeel "Kurogane” Redfox
REWARD: $500.00
Wanted for multiple armed robberies and theft.
BEWARE: The man is armed and dangerous. Be careful when meeting!!“
Levy stared at the wanted posted and noticed the photo of the criminal. He was a tall man from what it seemed, long black hair, held back in a black cowboy hat, piercing looking eyes and piercings across his face. A black kerchief was resting on his neck and from the looks of the photo, he seemed to be enjoying this. What caught Levy’s attention was the reward; $500 dollars. $500 dollars!!! That was a lot of money!! He really must have done something wrong in order to get a reward that high!
