Damnation; Chapter 2: The Times They Are A Changin' (Needs Players! PM Me for Details)

[Dastardos]

"You *coughs* you need to understand this. You must continue my legacy. You must continue my fight for this town. You *coughs blood* must show the town god's way. You need to leave every thing you had with the barmaid behind. That means friendship and love *coughs* interest."

 

[ThreeWords]

"Yes, of course. I will do all I can to guide this town, and keep it to God's path, even if it costs me all I have"

 

[Dastardos]

"Tomorrow at the meeting-" he was cut short as he more blood ejaculated from his mouth "You must represent us well. You must let Ace know his place in this town. Make everyone listen to you. Now what I suggest yo-" He stopped again, coughing more blood. As he tried to start his voice up again nothing came out. His eyes slowly closed.

 

[Kelethor]

"A..ace is dead? oh god...oh god" Ethan wanted to let his guts heave up through his throat. he swalloed up his vomit, "Is Amy alright? is she hurt?" before waiting for his response, Ethan bolted forward, making a run across town, towards the sheriff's office...running right into Amy. the moment he saw her Red-golden locks, Burned and charred. her face creased with worry, her eyes red with tears, he wanted to throw up, again "Amy...ACe....He....I..." the words were a mess in his mouth " I...you...." the words made sense in his head. I told you things would go wrong, but you didn't listen! im so sorryy for Ace, and I almost threw up on the bar door. what he got was " Amy, you....your hair...I...." he was trying not too cry, after all, he was supposed to be comforting her " I..."

 

[Flying-Emu]

Amy rolled her eyes, hefting Ethan to his feet. "Calm down, you great lout." She pulled him through the doors, raising her eyebrows at the four or five men that still inhabited her bar.

"For the love of... Guys, the bar is closed, no more booze until the meeting tomorrow! Go home!"

Amidst the grumbles of the exiting men, Amy supported Ethan along the way to a barstool. Ruffling his hair, she went around the counter and leaned over, placing her eyes on level with him. "Ethan. Listen to me. Ace is dead, Jeff is likely going to die, and I've almost been killed twice tonight. You are going to stay here tonight and make sure no one comes through these doors until ten o'clock PM tomorrow, understand?"

As she waited for a response, she inwardly hated herself. Ace had needed the same kind of treatment whenever he was distraught. She figured it would apply to Ethan as well.

 

[Kelethor]

Ethan nooded dimly "are...are you ok? your hair....you..." you wouldn't listen, you stupid red haired fool! I knew this would happen! what he got " im...im sorry I couldn't help you...I knew this would happen" he slamed his white knuckled fist on the table. "Amy, you....you could have died! I just...I ..." he roughed up his own hair. she was messing up his doo.

 

[Flying-Emu]

Amy chuckled at Ethan, tapping him on the cheek. "Calm down, kid. I'm fine. This?" She pulled playfully on the charred remains of her hair. "This'll grow back. Stop worrying. I'm perfectly fine; a little banged up maybe, but there are worse fates."

Hopping over the counter, she pushed him playfully and headed towards the stairwell. "Will you keep watch down here while I go take a bath? I smell terrible."

Without waiting for a reply, she bounded up the stairs to prepare a long soak.

As Davis eyes closed, Jon let out a deep sigh.

"God rest your soul, Father." He prayed silently for several minutes, then turned to leave.

Looking back to Doc, he said "Take care of the body, and see to Ace. I'll hold a service for he and Ace tomorrow."

He went back to his own house, next door, and entered. Sitting down on the bed, he wept tears of grief, pain and regret.

 

[Dastardos]

Spoiler: Time Skip!

Okay, I'm fast forwarding time to the meeting of Maddawg and Spartan. When that concludes we will go to the service for Gen and Tatta. When the service concludes it will be about time for the meeting.

 

[Kelethor]

Ethan sighed "there she goes again..." he sat down, sighed, and waited...it was strange. Ace was gone, the bar had taken quite a bit of a stir, and She lost her Hair. and yyet she didn't seem to be bothered at all! "Maybe she just handles stress better" he said with aa laugh, flumbling around with his father's Colt. 45. it was at this point Ethan realized he forgot to put bullets in the damn thing "Some help I would have been" tossing the gun aside.
He put his elbows up on the table, his head in his hands, and cried, hoping Amy wouldn't hear him.

John pulled out his pocket watch and noticed it was 5 minutes to 3:00. He hurried over to the meeting spot. The spot was located near a shed that most likely contained garden tools. John took a seat by the shed and waited for the contact.

about 10 minutes past before he saw figure aproach the spot from the distance. He stood up and walked over to the figure. "So are you the guy who left me the message?"

 

[Ravenholm27]

-jump back in time-

Jack watched as everything went down shaking his head. "This isn't the place i was born in anymore," he said. Fed up with everything, Jack went back to his house adn angerily packed some of his belonging. He grabbed a shotgun hidden underneath his bed and ivory necklace that his daughter always wore. He went outside and wrote a message down on a scrap piece of paper reading this-----

Spoiler: Message

This town is dead for me my family died from and now neighbors are dying, I leave my home to the farmer boy Ethan may he find use for it and for the maid Amy I leave this rifle in her care she needs it more than I

He left the message weighted down by a rock on the anvil and his beloved Winchester rifle leaning on the same anvil. Jack then took his gelding from the stables and quietly rode off into the night wishing for a better life.

Spoiler: well i'm out

[Anarchemitis]

Spoiler: Justification

Greers is a deep sleeper and goes to bed at a responsible time, will be the justification to why I haven't been posting/keeping up with this, averting personal reasonage.

Being a deep sleeper, I grant Dastardos the ability to make him sleepwalk, given he doesn't do anything insane, murderous or anything (too) imperiling.

 

[Flying-Emu]

Amy lowered her denuded body into the steaming water, sighing with satisfaction as she sunk to her chin in the soapy liquid. Settling her back against the tub, she closed her eyes and passed into a state of recollection.

Fleeing Carson City at Ace's heels, pulling nothing but a small suitcase of clothing behind her. Working until sundown at the General Store. Christening the bar on its first day of service.

The sight of Ace's scalped body. The pain of Jeff's attempt to murder her.

She shuddered, freeing these thoughts from her mind as tears flowed to cleanse her mind as the bath cleansed her body.

 

[Spartan Bannana]

Spoiler: My justification

I've come down with strepp throat, not debilitating, just really fucking annoying and painful, Maddawg is gonna start up our meeting, I'll play by ear then.

 

[Kelethor]

Ethan finnaly stemmed the flow of tears from his eyes, now reddended by the gushing water. he let out a tired sigh. he looked to the moon in the far distance. Ethan got up, wipped his shirt sleeve across his eyes. He thought back to his childhood. the long days in the field, the nights by the fire, dad playing the old fiddle, mom sowing him a pair of wool socks...he let out a smile. it was late. but he needed to "protect" Miss Reid. he was certain that if it came down to a brawl, chances are, she'd be saving him more often that not. he let out a light laughed. it was too be a late night.

 

[Spartan Bannana]

"I am indeed, my dear boy. You've seen the recent events, the boy on the horse, the killing in town, times as desperate as these, call for equally desperate measures. The killer might go after me, so, I believe you know where I am going with this. I need weapons, lots of weapons. Meet me at my shop sometime if you wish to do buisness." Tim turns around and begins to walk away, then turns back one more time, "If you do not, I have...other, ways of attaining those guns from you." Tim narrowed his eyes at John, then walked back towards town.

Spoiler: Lame, I know, but I'm tired

Besides, I figured I shouldn't delay this meeting any more.

 

[maddawg IAJI]

John left the meeting spot. He travled to the nearby inn and rented a small room for the night.

Spoiler: just trying to end the night

By now i just want the story to move on.
