Chapter 3 - The Big Event

A week goes by and Liam was at his ranch fixing up his fences. He then sees the mail man come by at the entrance and puts his mail in his mail box.

"Ah, a letter has arrived," said Liam. He then heads over to his mailbox. He opens it up and sees the letter is from Darkwater Town Hall. They were having an event there. But what really got him was that they were having free food there.

Later that night, Liam showed up to the event at town hall. He was wearing a black leather cowboy hat.

"Now, where is the food area," said Liam. He looks around and sees the food table and he starts to head over and makes himself a plate. He then see Abigail walk up to him.

"Liam? I did not expect you to be here," said Abigail.

"Well, they said there would be free food," said Liam, while eating.

"Ah, I see. I guess it not for the cool things that came from grand," said Abigail.

"I know I am not welcome there," said Liam.

"You got a point," said Abigail.

"Mean I find it the new technology powered by magic crystal are cool, but I have no interested in them," said Liam.

"Must be born from the countryside," said Abigail.

"Yeah, but when I was an Outlaw, you tend to travel a lot to avoid the law," said Liam.

"I was born in Grand, so these things are not so new to me," said Abigail.

"Alright, so your a city girl," said Liam.

"Yeah, but this place seemed quiet compared to there," said Abigail.

"Sheriff Robert made sure to keep the peace around here," said Liam. They then notice a man approach them. He was a man who was middle aged. He had short gray hair with light-colored skin with a tan. He had yellow eyes. He wore a fancy blue suit with a gold badge with The WPA logo on it. Abigail salutes him with her right hand.

"You must bet the famous, Liam Antrim," said The Man.

"That is correct," said Liam. "An who might you be sir?"

"Forgive me," said The Man. "I am Bart Armstrong, Director of the World Pinkerton Agency." The Man is revealed to be Bart Armstrong.

"Oh, your the big boss," said Liam.

"Indeed, I came to see this town and I have to say I am impressed," said Bart.

"Well, the people here try very hard to do that sir," said Liam.

"I bet they do," said Bart. "Well, enjoy yourself, Mr. Antrim. Keep up being a man who paid his debt," said Bart. He then leave them.

"Well, for a former Outlaw you can be nice even in the face of someone that is the number one man of the WPA," said Abigail.

"Thank my big sister, she told me it never a good thing to be rude to people that not rude to you," said Liam.

"I see," said Abigail.

"I wonder how she is doing now," said Liam. "Expect she probably enjoying the married life."

"Well, I hope she is," said Abigail.
