>>Prologue<<
In a wasteland like this you have to be crazy not to carry a gun with you. This land is full of crooks, thieves, and just plain nasty people. Good thing we have bounty hunters on our side! Without them our lives will be full with no good crooks! That’s where this story begins.. In a land of dry sun and even dryer land…


~Chapter One!~

A dusty saloon with a lot of burly and dirty looking men. It was dark and the air smelled salty. Our hero, or should I say heroin is here for business, and maybe a few drinks. A man in a white trench coat walks into the saloon. A few men look at him in a wickedly. The man walked up to our heroin. “Aura, you could have chose a better place then this to meet. I swear there are more then half the crooks we been looking for,” he complained. “Ok maybe so but it’s a little musky in here but you get used to pretty quickly,” Aura said as she took a sip out of her drink. “Ok what’s the bounty this time Jake?” she asked rather loudly. “Shh! Don’t attach too much attention in a place like this,” Jake hushed her. But it was too late two burly men came up to her. “Hey girly are you bounty hunter?” a big, gruff, bald man asked in an a aggressive tone. “Why yes I am,” Aura smirked. “HAHA! You! A bounty hunter! AHAHAHA! I never heard of such a thing!” The other skinner man mocked. “You in for it now…” Jake warned. “What are you tal-!!” Before he could finish his sentence Aura elbowed him hard in the gut! The man fell to his knees wheezing hard. The other man was stunned at how fast his companion went down. “You wench! Your going down! The big man charged at Aura. Before he could get 2 feet in front of her she pulled out her gun right in his face. “I’ve been looking for you two. You two are the Finer brothers right,” she said she pulled out two wanted sighs with the men on it. “Crap she really is a bounty hunter!” The bigger Fined brother cursed. “You bet I am so a good boy and MARCH!” She demand. “Told ya,” Jake smirked and push up his glasses.

After turning the Finer brothers Aura was rewarded but..
“WHAT!?!” Aura yelled in anger. “Sorry Aura but if you want those upgrades to your guns you have to pay up… That award of 10,000 Huen will be just enough,” Jake smirked.


“You damn moocher!” Aura cursed. “FINE! But you better make the upgrades great or else you have to answer to me!” Aura threaten. “Don’t worry, with this upgrade your gun power will be twice it strength and even more accuracy!” Jake assured. “Ok, you never let me down anyway,” Aura smiled. Jake blushed and turned his head. “A-anyway we should look for the next bounty…” Jake stuttered. Then Jake notice another wanted sigh on a side of a building. He ran over to it and read it over. “Oh wow! Look at the bounty on his guy’s head!” Jake was shocked. Aura ran over to him “What are yo- OMG!!” Aura yelled out. The award was 500,000 Huen! Aura looked the picture. The man wore a black gunner coat that cover most of his face and he had black spiked up with green at the end. He wore black triangle sunglasses too. “Wow this guy looks tough.. No duh he has such a big bounty!” Aura explained. Jake looked at Aura seriously, Aura did the same to Jake. “Aura I think we should sit this one out..” Jake warned. “What! Why!?” Aura demanded an answer. “I don’t know but this guy just.. Looks dangerous. Not like the thugs we been facing..” Jake seem worried. “Don’t sweat it Jake! Besides with your wicked power we should be fine,” Aura said and patted him on the back. “You know I don’t like to fight,” Jake sighed. “Ok so, we have to find this guy! Ok here where you’re great information gathering skills come in handy!” Aura smiled and patted him on the back again. Jake sighed again…

Aura and Jake return to the sheriff office. “Oh you want to try to catch him huh?” The sheriff said brushing his bushy mustache with his fingers. “Yeah, do you have any info on him?” Jake asked. “Yes, he’s been avoid us for at least 4 years now.” The sheriff informed. “His name is still unknown, and so is his age and birthplace, but we heard he was last seen at Harp city just a few miles from here but we don’t know if he’s still there or n-” The sheriff notice they left. “Those two are so impatience,” The sheriff shrugged..

Aura and Jake went to the train station to travel to Harp city. “Why can’t we just take a cab?” Aura asked annoyed waiting in line behind some sweaty guy. “Because a cab won’t go that far out in the wasteland like that,” Jake explained. Aura moaned. The reached the train after 34 minutes and take there seats. “Sigh.. It’d be faster by walking…” Aura moaned. “Actually it’d longer,” Jake corrected. “Shut up moocher..” Aura mumbled..
The train was chucking along pretty smoothly, Aura fell asleep due to boredom and Jake was reading a book. Jake looked at the window. “For some reason I have a bad feeling about going to Harp city..” Jake thought to himself. He looked over to see Aura sleeping soundly. “Maybe I should listen to my demon instincts… Suddenly the train stops. “What the hell? Why is it stopp-” Jake’s thoughts were interrupted by the intercom. “Hello passengers! This is Vincent Valentines, telling you to get to the back of the train and leave all you valuables in the seats. We will be watching you so no stupid moves!” A man turned it off. The Passengers did has he said. “s**t.. Aura, Aura wake up!” Jake whispered really quietly. “Huh? What is it Jake?” Aura said rubbing her eye.
He pointed behind him, where a thug with a big club thing on his back, blocking the door. Aura smirked. “What are yo- No, no, no! Aura no!” Jake whispered. Aura stood up and waved to the thug. “Hey you drop your valuables and leave the train!” The thug commend. “I see.. How about no,” Aura teased. “You do not want to mess with me little girl!” The thug warned, pull out the big club thing from his back. “I’m not a little girl! You disgusting thug!” Aura yelled. “That’s it girly!” He shouted while changing her. Aura dodged his blow by moving to the side. “You!” He swung at her again but she ducked. She point her gun right under his chin. He made a “Gulp” noise. Aura smiled and kneed him in the gut! He fell over in one blow. Then Aura looked at Jake annoyed. “What?” Jake asked. “You could have help!” She shouted. “I told you! I don’t like to fight!” Jake shouted back. “Now lets help the passengers before they get hurt!“ he commend. Aura sighed and they headed down the carts to find the passengers. “There they are,” Aura pointed out. “There another big thug there too” Jake pointed out as well. Aura looked at Jake. “What?” Jake looked at her weird. “I want you take this one out ok!” Aura said smiling. “I sa-” Jake got cut off by Aura pushing in the thug. He cussed her out in his head. “Huh? Watch it four-eyes!” The thug warned. “Who are you calling four-eyes, you ugly beast!” Jake snapped. “YOU LITTLE!” He pulled out this spiked club and swung it at Jake. Jake block it with his hands. He held where the spikes weren’t so not to get stabbed. Jakes eyes turn black and red and he threw the thug across the cart! “See Jake you can kicks his a** anytime!” Aura cheered. The thug ran off like a spaz. “Stupid…” Jake said as his eyes turned back to sky blue. “I still don’t like to fight,” Jake grumble at Aura. “But you kick a**…” Aura said disappointed.
In the driver’s cart (Don’t know what you call it…), Vincent sat there peacefully. “I think it’s time to start the train again… Don’t you say so driver,” Vincent said with a smirk. The tired up diver was struggling to get free. “I’ll take that as a yes.” He continued to smirk. “Boss!” One of his thugs bust in. “What is it?” Vincent said looking out the diver window. “There are these two passengers causing trouble! They took out Bandit and Rex!” The Thug panicked. Vincent pulled out his coal black gun and start to rub it with a smooth cloth. “Hm… Is one a light brown haired girl with a red scarf?” Vincent asked still rubbing his gun. “Uh.. I think so..” The thug answered. “Ok.. I’ll handle her myself,”
Vincent said as he c**k his gun….
