The Dust settles...and Vlad won

As the gathered crowd grew larger by the minute, the wind was slowly blowing in a thick dust cloud, going over the two gun slingers and leaving them both shrouded as they called each other out to draw. Two gunshots were distinctly heard, as everything fell silent, even the wind itself as if it were also as shocked at what just happened. as the Dust settled and the two marksmen were revealed, everyone could clearly see who had won just from Vlad's toothy grin alone.

"Well well weeeell Sheriff, seems like you aren't the mighty gunslinger as you boast yourself to be it seems~ Tell me angelface, how's it feel to lose~?"

Texas simply stood there, her eyes wide like dinner plates as her arm trembled. Despite how dense the dust cloud was she clearly saw Vlad through it, every move he made...He was just so fast, his arm practically blurred as he reached for his gun! Left defeated and yet still standing, the fallen sheriff could only ask one thing.

"W-what are you gonna do with April..."

Vlad simply smiled as he leaned in towards Texas again, his voice creeping into her skull as he whispered "Now now, don't you worry a hair about your deputy Sheriff...after all, it was you Mrs. Vivian requested I captured~". Hearing Vivian's name was no surprise to Texas considering how many crooks and bandits she's hired to try and best her with. This time though, Tex's heart raced at her name. Every time she was faced with a goon from Vivian she had won, but this...this man was something on a different level for her. Just how did Vivian manage to get a man like this under her payroll?!

All of these questions went through the Sheriff's head at once before suddenly going black, as Vlad clunked Texas on the back of the head, dropping the sheriff on the ground before lifting her up onto his wagon. Taking a seat on his new prize's face with his rear that Texas made quite the remark on earlier, Vlad looked on towards the crowd that was still left in awe and fear at what just happened, as he politely told them all

"Thank you kindly townsfolk of Gold Springs for your generous hospitality~ I promise That I ain't taking Texas from you permanently folks...me and her just have to work out the rest of the details of our little wager is all~ Sit tight now yawl, we'll be riiiiiiight back~"
