As predicted I barely found time to play while back at work. Days are just too long. Kids are just too busy. Life is just hectic. I did however find a gap and squeezed in a quick session since it was kind of nagging me to go and rescue this Micah feller. He is one of us after all and a jailbreak mission sounds kind of fun. Boy, was I wrong... It was pure MADNESS!
I didn't waste any time going out of town so I just headed to the mission location ASAP. I did however find this lost soul along the way who needed directions to the town I was heading to, so I thought I might as well help him out. He slowed me down a bit, but I didn't mind. I got my head ready for the mission ahead. The town is just ahead of us. Not a big place at all, but better keep an eye out for danger.
Right in front of the jailhouse. Meh, nothing too scary, looks quite winky dink so this should be easy. Walk it, have a talk and say it was all a misunderstanding and get our Micah out.
After walking in they were somewhat friendly, but quickly made it clear I am not welcome and if I dare to linger I would be taken care of. I headed out, I didn't want to pick a fight... Not yet.
After investigating the building I found the little prison window and spoke to Micah.
He seem like a fine fellow.
I was eager to get him out as he has been in there for a while already.
Found this old contraption that might help me pull the bars right out of the building.
With a little handy work I managed to hook a rope to the bars and we were ready to pull this place apart and ride like lightning into the sunset...
Micah looked pretty scruffy, not what I expected, but I guess a few days in the joint does that too you. The shocking thing about him jumping out is that as soon as he did another guy tried to get out after him and since I already handed him a gun to make sure we can get out safely he decided to blow that guys brains out before he could take a step outside. He claimed the feller was an O'Driscoll. I guess it was kind of fine then...
The crazy thing is that as soon as we got out I knew we might have to take a life or two to make sure we get out safely. Micah had other plans, he went on a full on rampage.
We were fighting our way out of there but Micah was dead set on a house visit to get something.
Outside the house in question.
I thought he might just hop in and get his loot, but I heard gunshots and know he killed whoever lived here... What the heck is he up to. We have done enough damage, we need to get out of here and fast.
As soon as we got out Micah got a second wind and just kept on going with his killing spree, I tagged along since we needed to get out of here alive.
We showed no mercy since it was life or death at this point.
We got on our horses and raced out of there!
We were being hunted by horseback at this point. We share a lot bullets from here on out and it was pure chaos.
Luckily we got out... Phew what a rush! Luckily we were both alive and our horses were fine too. I would be pissed to lose a horse this way.
On the way home the weather turned real dark, it was beautiful. I even managed to get a shot of some lightning!
We rode out into the bad weather. Let's go home.
After a chat he told me he had some business to take care of and that Dutch, our leader will most likely not be happy with him returning at this point. I was kind of disappointed. Thought he would return to camp and help us.
Riding off like the madman he is... It was at this moment where I thought that I could have killed him before he killed everyone in our way. Too much bloodshed. Too many lives... Was he really worth it?
We since the weather is clearing up it is time for me to head home and get some rest. Saw a neat train in the distance as well.
As I rode though the train station I spotted a dog and we all know what that means...
Pets for the good doggo. Always.
This strange feller called me over and he was smoking, not like a chimney, more like a train!
He told me about these special collectable cards that you can fine in cigarettes' packs and that I should be on the lookout for some rare ones. He even gave me some free packs to smoke up. Western NFT's....
He have me his card and I should contact him if I find a good set of cards for him. Not really interested.
On my way home I found our leader, Dutch guarding the camp. Good to see he isn't just sitting around, glad to see him actively taking a part not like a king who sits on his throne the whole day.
Finally time for some rest...
Scrooger signing off, I still wonder if I should have just taken care of Micah, he seems like bad news and too much blood was shed today only for him... I will wait for our next meeting and I might just make it his last meeting.
