The start to a rough story

No one believed his words. Everyone knew exactly what he was doing, and no one was calm about it. Their saving grace from the many criminals that littered the west was beaten, caught, and most likely won't be seen again. It was the first time any of these kind folks felt a true sense of dread. Texas's family were the only ones in Golden Springs to be so capable...but now, hope seemed beyond fickle.

However, the cart ride Texas was taking was far from the end of her journey, hardly. No, this was the start of another difficult journey ahead. Carted off to a far off mountainside that had once been the sight of a old mining facility, now used by Vlad and his crew as a makeshift prison just for Texas. Upon waking up, Texas would stir herself up in a rather uncomfortable position. Head aching, body sore, vision blurry, and completely tied up, Texas was greeted by a rather terrifying sight before her.

"Well well well, lookie here folks. Princess herself is starting to wake up~ Howdy there Sheriff~"

Vlad and his "Crew" was as expected. Some of the worst varmints Texas had ever have the privilege to deal with. There was Vlad himself, no need for a real introduction there. A Silver wolf with a silver tongue and a true scoundrel as they come.

"D'aaaw course she knows who WE are, riiiiiiight Tex~?"

"Pretty sure we drilled ourselves DEEP into that thick skull of hers, sis~ Though maybe she needs a fresh reminder here~"

Then there was the twins: The iconic (yet hardly tolerable) Jesse and Jane: Two of THE most annoying brutes Tex had ever have to deal with on her time as the local Sheriff. They were nearly identical, but besides the obvious choices in neckwear, Texas had manage to pinpoint some obvious differences between the two. Though in the heat of a fight, she tends to forget them.

Then of all the faces to be here, the strangest of all had to be Ziorna, the rattle snake bounty hunter. Her skills we're far from pleasant despite what she might tell you about her rattle, and her skills with weaponry are more fierce than her bite. She seemed quiet however, distant even. Whatever the case, her reasoning for being here was far too obvious; to collect a bounty over someone's head...like the one Vivian must have put on her just like last time.

And what Weasel capturing party would be complete without the Kangaroo herself....Roxxie. The towering Marsupial looked down behind this threatening crew she was apart of, looking straight down at Texas, the iconic smug and vile smirk she always wore when she saw Texas on her knees across her face as she began to speak.

"Well la-de-da. You actually managed to catch her, Vlad. What a BIIIIIIIIG achievement for ya. Not like we haven't done it on a day to day basis~"

The twins laughed and snorted at the remark, as Zirona and the rest of Vlad's ilk of no name's all stood in silence, knowing fully well not to cross him. With a smirk of his own, Vlad turned to face Roxxie, looking straight up at her eyes and locking them, sending a rather powerful chill up her back as he responded back. "Well I must admit, I DID hire you all for a reason you know~" He stepped forward now, standing right in front of Roxxie now, a position that would normally get someone either smothered between something on her body or flattened like a pancake, but instead Roxxie remained still, nervous even.

"After all, I just wanted to brag is all~ Where you all ffffailed~ And why's that? Because ladies....unlike you lot, I know how to get a job done....and get it right~"

With that remark, everyone in the room could feel rage boiling inside, everyone wanting to slug Vlad hard across the face, however, no one made a move. Not even Roxxie. They saw how this man operated and no one was willing to risk starting a fight with a man capable of what they've seen him do. Instead, they all stood down. Letting him have his moment before he sauntered back to Texas, taking a knee in front of her.

"Cozy enough for ya? Thought not~ Figure I'd just keep you locked up for a while before I haul you off on outta here"

Texas was left confused now. Haul off? To where....

"Where you plannin to take me ya scumbag? Where's April darn it!" Texas threw herself against the cage, face to face with the wolf as he remained unfazed by this sense of anger from Texas, as he chuckled to himself before lifting Tex's head up, there eyes meeting as he told her.

"You and your deputy are bein carted off out of the state my dear~ You see, I cut myself a deal with that lovely mayor of yours that was just too good to pass up~ You see, She paid me to catch you and bring you back to her all mushy like. But, using her past...failures as leverage, hmhm~ I managed to pull off an even bettah deal with the fine woman~ she pays me to just catch you and cart you off out of here, and I get to decide what to do with you and your deputy once were gone~! A win-win if you ask me, hmhmhm~"

So that's what was going on. Vivian's at her final straw with Texas and just wants her gone. So she spent a fortune on one of the best bounty hunters she could get her hands on...but that doesn't explain the rest of the crew he has here.

"What about the gals? Can't imagine you convinced them all to tag along just so they could wave bye-bye to me. Especially you, Roxxie. What in tarnation's is going on with the lot of ya!" Roxxie growled at that remark, readying to slam her fist right at Texas's face before Vlad lifted his hand in front of her face, stopping her mid-swing.

"Now now Ladies, hold those horses of yours~" Vlad cooed as he faced Texas once more, His smug grin never leaving his face as he spoke up again. "These fine women here are all here because I decided to do a little...information gatherin~ Ya see, a good hunter doesn't just go in gun's ablazin and expects to win. Ain't that right, Zinny~?"

Ziorna turned away from the vile man, remembering her last spat with Texas hardly went as planned, as the twins once again started laughing and snorting, remembering her last encounter with Texas veeeery well.

"Alright, but that doesn't tell me why y'all are here now. What, you all at the point where you just wanna ship me off instead of crushing me yourselves?"

The twins were the ones to speak up now, Jesse stepping forward and telling Texas off, telling her "Course we don't wanna just ship you off ya dumb Weasel! Hell, if we had it our way, You'd be a butt plug going both ways in-an-out of me and Jane righta bout now!"

"Yea ya darn varmint! But Vlad'ere said that he'd give us the opportunity to tag along with'em~ Juuuuuust so we could have our fun with ya the whole time before you and that foxy gal pal of yours get shipped off to who knows where!" The twins looked at themselves before sneering, giving Texas a incredibly evil and dirty look as they stepped forward together, getting right in Texas's face as they told her this

"But don't you worry Tex. We got ourselves a gooooooooooooood fortune under our boots~ If all goes well, You'll prolly end up back home in no time~"

"Yea, as our new ass scratcher harhahahar~!"

Texas was feeling rather defeated at this point. She was tied up, locked away, and surrounded by a plethora of her hardest foes. Not to mention, she had no clue where April was now...With defeat in the back of her throat, she hung her head down and weakly asked.

"Just tell me where April is at the very least...please." Hearing Texas's simple and rather cute request, Vlad felt it generous enough to show her exactly where her deputy was. Stepping away from in front of Texas, revealing across from her was another cell that kept her partner caged up as well, **** and tied up just as thoroughly as she was.

"Can't keep a set too far from itself now." With a wave of relief seeing her closest friend was only a few feet away from her, Texas sighed before glaring at Vlad once more, as he adjusted the hat over his head, HER hat over his head as he began walking out, Roxxie and Zirona following suit with him. "We'll be taking our leave now. Don't worry though, your jailors will make sure you two are quite cozy while we get things up an ready? Ain't that right, girls~?"

The twins wasted no time in getting to work. Removing their already stretched thin jeans and slamming their bare asses against two very creaky wooden stools, as the twins set themselves cozy on a small table and readied a game of cards, blowing our foghorn like blasts of hot, fetid gas into both girls prison cells, leaving Texas to cough, hack and wheeze while April simply groaned in misery while still adrift in her subconscious.

"harhar-snort-ha~! You got it boss man~! We'll keep these two blots niiiiiice and cozy~" With the two guards settled and playing their game of blackjack, farting casually into Texas and April's cages, the sheriff was left to wallow in the waft of the fumes. The scent as atrocious as she recalls, but at least they were distracted for the time being.

But for how long would that last? How long before Jesse or Jane get fed up with just farting on the girls and decide to run off with the two and never be seen again? How long until Vlad would come back to haul the two off to who knows where? How much longer could Tex try and grasp for anything that could save her at a time like this....
