[IC] The Western Cowgirl Mystery

[RanchGirl100]

Amanada was walking through the dirt roads smiling as her horse followed after her, no halter no saddle it just followed her happily eyes closed gently. The female came to a local drinking tavern and made sure the horse stayed outside and walked into the bar, the guys turned their heads slightly in shock seeing a female in cowboy ware and tare. She walked with pride and justice in her steps and walked to the bar looking at the Bartender "scotch now" said as the male laughed but yekped as she grabbed his tie and smacked his head into the bar side "scotch now" said agressively as the bartender held his head nodding and got to the scotch as he gave her a glass.

few cowboys muttered and growled about her coming in and acting like a cowboyshe wasn't so post to even be out of the house this was a huge offense to the ego of cowboys.

Russell sits at his usaul table for one. He snaps out his daydream about his non-existant horse ranch when there is fuss at the bar. He sighs and gulps down the last of his whiskey. His daydream was just getting good. He stands up and walks over to the girl in cowboy attire. While the other cowboys notice him approach her, they mutter either your death wish or show her whose boss. He sees the bartender with a bloody nose, looking at the lady in fear. "Good day Miss. Why, may I ask, do you have to hurt and scare him? He is just a weakling who does not better." The bartender glares at him, forgetting the women. Russell glares back with a "I will break your knees" look. The bartender gets the gist and forgets the two.

She rolled her eyes "because your egos are so large that your the big badness of the west belive me you have not seen big and bad" she muses as she downed the scotch given to her and smiled gently "besides its always fun to beat the snot out of guys sometimes, Besides no one ever fights me whereI come from for very good reason" she said as she watched few cowboys stand up and shot the floor "sit your fat ares down you ego manicas " she snapped as the cowboys lashed out as she kicked one in the crotch and stabbed him in the side and upper kicked another one as well as punched one so hard he fell to te floor unmoving but alive "taht is why you do not miss with me" she patting the others head as she walked out of the bar and smiled as she saw her horse looking at her confused.

"don't worry about it" she laughed gently as she got onto the painted mare bare back laughing as coboys rushed out yelling and lunging she got her horse to gallop and then she was gone as fast as she had come but you could feel that wasn't the last you would see of the pretty firey spirited female.

"Damn. Where did she come from?" says Russell. He looks around at the hell she let loose. " Who ever pissed her off first must have been one unlucky son of a bitch. Well, goes to show. Dynamite come in small packages. There is no point for me, being here any more." Russell goes to his table, collects his hat and winchester rifle and leaves the tavern. "I think I need to learn how to break in a horse. But first, I need a job. Damn coach company for firing me. " Russell thinks for a bit. "I know. Bounty hunter." Russell heads to the sheriff's office for bounties.

[RanchGirl100]

The female laughed as she and her horse stopped in the middle of the forest and she let her horse run free and away. She sat down and started a fire catching arabbit and cooked it she watched the stars from the ground eyes bright and blazing with flames. She closed her eyes and just fell asleep content on sleeping in the fresh air and not in a sweating tent or even a house she never did, course she took showers but living inside something repulsed her greatly.

[fer1323]

It is getting dark fast for Russell "Okay. Want dead or alive. Wanted dead. Etc. I will start these in the morning." Russell stuffs the bounty posters in his pocket, searches for money and turn up a misealy couple of one dollar notes. "Damn. Well, Looks like I am sleeping on a bench tonight. I need the money for food." Russell finds a bench outside the post office. He takes off his coat and uses it as a pillow. He notices glares from some passerbys. He shoot a rude gesture every now and again. So what, he can not keep a job and has to live like a hobo. Life is not always golden.

The next morning he could feel something grab his jacket it was the wild mare from before. it pulled the jacket from under him and snorted as if it wanted him to follow it. it kept dodging his way to get the jacket and trotted backwards wanting him to follow it. The horse was strange but whatever it did want was to help the man, it was said god could look through a horses eyes.

[fer1323]

"Okay, okay. Geez, give a break." Russell sits up, streches and stands up. "Whatever you want to tell me, I hope it is good and is not far for me to walk. If it is, I may need to ride you." Russell inspects the mare. " You sure are a beauty. You seem tamed enough, I guess by your behaviour but where is your saddle and more importantly, owner?"

[RanchGirl100]

The horse bobbed its head and pointed its head to the forest that was close by and stomped its hooves before tossed the jacket over to the mae and circled hi and then walked into the forest and whinnies as the girl was cooking eggs and a nice rabbit looking up "wah, Tylia I told you to get food not a guy" she said groaning as the horse snorted and whinnies as she nodded "i guess so, want to sit down and have some breakfast then?" asked as the horse whinnies and went to the female and laid down and placed its head in her lap as she smield and rubbed its cheek and smiles eyes closed "Your a silly mare"

[fer1323]

Russell notices the lady from the day before. " Uhm. Hi again. I would like some breakfast." Russell sits down on the grass. "So what you did yesterday was quite spetacular. What choose this tough path where there are better one out there? It is bizzare to me that a pretty woman like youself would choose a life of hardship. I don't mean to offend." says Russell with sincere concern and intrigue.

[RanchGirl100]

"i don't want to be a lady and I wanted to ride and befriended this mare. I do not own any horze nor do any man. I live this life out of my choice and my choice alone" said smiing as she cooked food and gave him a good porition smiling

[fer1323]

Russell takes the food and eats it, a little dishearted. " It sounds like you are living out your dream. I actually envy you. My dream is to own a horse ranch. I guess it stems from when I was younger. I would enjoy watching the horses play in the paddocks on the farm where my dad worked. I always wanted to breed and raise them into horse that would one day entertain poeple. Not for work or battle. For splender and wonder."

[RanchGirl100]

The female nod "one day you will get there you just have to try very hard, its very amazing once you get that dream" said witg a soft smile as she eats slowly as the horse nipped her pans and she clicked her tounge as the horse snorted deeoply rolling onot is back "it wants a belly rub how cute"

[fer1323]

Russell cracks a smile then a laugh. Once he recovers, he says " That is what I mean. That would make so many poeple happy. This horse is a unique one. It does not behave like any horse that I have encountered. Where did you two meet?"

[RanchGirl100]

"Tylia here is a wild unkept mare she was a foal seprtayed from the herd and caught in a trap saved her and got her to normal and she went back to her herd but we stayed pretty close" said smiled as she eats and rubbed the horses belly

[fer1323]

"Do you have family? I have cousins on the east coast. My dad and mom are down south, working in the farms and ranch. All my grandparents have passed away. I miss my dad and my mom. It has been awhile." says Russell, lookinhg at his plate. A tear runs down his cheek. He rubs it away. "Sorry. I may act tough because most poeple are cruel to the soft and kind."

[RanchGirl100]

"sad no i do not have any more family other then my mare and myself. gang of cattle ranchers illed them ina barn fire i escaped but my family wasn't lucky enouh to do so" she looking sown before notinc the tea and smiled "thats how a coeboy should be tough and cruel but deep down is a soft and careing person loss is hard but it fades as so does the pain but it never leaves fully"

[fer1323]

"Thanks. You know, I like you. Why don't we partner up? We could be helpful to one another. Who knows, we may become legends. The first cowgirl and her partner stand their ground and will not stand for unfair treatment against those who can help themselves. Or we could just average and be a forgotten page in time. Which ever please you?" says Russell shrugging.

[RanchGirl100]

"lets just help people in need eh to start it?" asked as the other smiled as she finished and washed off her pan as her mare got up and shook out its mane and tail and body looking at them and snorted deeply and stomped a large hoof. the mare seemed extremely fast and elegant hiding behind it. the mare watched as she came back and put the pans away in her bag and smiled gently "do you have a horse?" she asked slowly looking at the other.

[fer1323]

"No. I was thinking of breaking one in myself. I traveled mainly by coach. If you offering one then yes please." says Russell with joy in his eye "I did riding when I was on the farm so no need to teach me."
