Chapter 8: Big Heist

The scene changed outside a deserted saloon.

Belle, Jane and Execumancer arrived.

Belle: Alright, this is where me the gang reside in.
Jane: And you say you're from another dimension?
Execumancer: Yes, I'm trying to find something a friend of my wants and that's on Deadeye Gulch.
Belle: Remember the deal we made, tin can? We tell you where the gulch is but you first have to help us out pull out a big heist.
Execumancer: I usually break promises but since it's stealing than count me in.

They entered inside the saloon.

???: What took you so long?

They saw this teenager in a poncho.

Execumancer was somewhat familiar with him.

Execumancer: I recognize you...

The teen raised an eyebrow.

???: Do I know you?
Execumancer: Umm nevermind, who is he by the way?
Jane: This is Edgar, he's the muscle of the group especially with that scarf of his.

Then suddenly 2 more people came to the scene.

Belle: Good to see ya Tara, did anyone find out about this hideout?
Tara: No, but who's that?
Belle: This is Execumancer, a new friend we made after he saved our asses from the sheriff.
???: Wow he looks cool.

Execumancer felt a bump beneath him and saw this little guy.

Execumancer: Umm who's this?
Jane: This is Schwer, the gunsmith of the group, he helps with the artillery.
Execumancer: I see, so this is your gang?
Belle: Yeah and together we're like a family.

Execumancer smirked.

Execumancer: Great to hear.
Tara: Belle what is he doing here, he seems to be out of this world.
Belle: He is, he told us he's from a diffrent dimension. He fought off the sheriff with those magnetic and metal bending abilities. So I need something like him to the gang to be added and we recruited him.
Execumancer: Umm only temporarely since I have to go and-
Belle: Yeah yeah, now let's plan our heist.
Schwer: I like this guy already.

He laughed.

Edgar: Ugh, he looks kinda cool.

Then inside Execumancer's mind.

???: Good, they got to trust you.
Execumancer's mind: Not all of them...

He then eyed Tara who gave him a look of suspicion.

The scene changed to the heroes who regrouped after searching for Execumancer but to no avail.

Dark-Er: We looked for him everywhere, but no sign of the walking pile of rust.
Max: Did he disappear or something.
Crow: Or did he leave to another dimension since he realized we were after him.
Col. Ruffs: I guess it's time we search for him outside this world.

Then they were approached by someone with a horse.

???: Umm excuse me!

They turned around and saw a red haired man, the same one that was ambushed by Execumancer.

Colt: The name's Colt and I'm the sheriff around here, you don't seem like locals around here.
Crow: Got a problem with that bud?

He pulled out some daggers and Kaori pulled out her sword.

Bo: Let's not be agressive when we greet someone.

He turned to Colt.

Bo: Yes, we're from another dimension and we're trying to hunt down a criminal known as Execumancer.

The sheriff is confused.

Colt: What?! You're aliens?!
Max: No, we're humans but from another Universe.
Colt: Oh ok, and who's this Execumancer you're talking about?
Colette: We're talking about this guy.

She gave him a picture of Execumancer.

Colt: Oh you mean that piece of shit that ambushed me while I was chasing down Belle Goldhand, the leader of the Gold Arm Gang.
Mortis: Wait you encountered him?
Colt: Yeah, he attacked me for no apparent reason.
Brock: Did you see which way he went?
Colt: I don't know but I saw him talking with Belle Goldhand and another one of her gang members and then they disappeared.

The heroes were surprised.

Mani: He was in the talks with some criminals in this Universe.
Kaori: My guess is that he might try and recruit them into a gang of his with the other benefactors that supported Wangzhou.
Max: Whatever the plan is, we have to stop him from whatever he's trying to do.
Colt: Maybe they could strike the town and try to steal gold.

They looked at him.

Mortis: A town you say?
Bull: Can you take us there?
Colt: Sure and do mind explaining to me this other dimension and stuff along the way.
Col. Ruffs: I guess we could.

The scene changed to Execumancer and the Gold Arm Gang as they were in a horse carriage.

Belle: Alright, everyone got the plan?
Everyone: Yeah.
Execumancer: Mind explaining the roles.
Belle: Alright, so Jane will cause a distraction outside the bank. Tara and Edgar will try to fight off the guards, Schwer aims his cannon at the back wall of the bank, you use your magnetic powers to carry all the gold while I keep charge in case someone tries to interfere.
Execumancer: And where do I place the gold? The carriage or do I have to carry it away with me cause I can fly it out of here.
Belle: You know what? That could actually work too!
Jane: You're such a smart thinker sweetheart.

She giggled.

Execumancer looked at Edgar who was resting while his hat covered his face.

Schwer was busy with his cannon.

He turned around and saw Tara still eyeing him.

Execumancer: What?
Tara: You're suspicious.
Execumancer: So what if I am, I did offer to help you out with this heist in exchange for telling me where Deadeye Gulch is.
Tara: True, let's see if your words are true because actions speak louder than words.

They then made it to the city in disguise.

Belle: Now's your chance Jane, get off and we'll go and park the carriage.

Jane nodded and got out of the horse carriage and began casually walking around the small town that was filled with.

Belle: Alright you 2, time to go and beat up the guards.
Tara: On it!
Edgar: *Sigh*

They jumped off the carriage and walked inside the bank.

Belle parked the horse carriage behind the bank.

The scene changed to Colt and the heroes.

Colt: Wow, so you guys are heroes with unimaginable strenght?
Brock: Pretty much, we bust our asses fighting crime 24/7 and Execumancer is our target.
Colt: I also wanna get back at that guy for earlier.
Bo: I don't recomend going 1 on 1 with him, he's a very dangerous individual that needs to be taken down in numbers at all cost.
Bull: By the way thanks for purifying us, Liuetenant Max.

He mentioned as Max decided to purify Col. Ruffs, Bull, Colette and Squeak.

They all had green amulets around their necks and their clothing has changed a bit.

Max: Don't mention it, Bull.
Col. Ruffs: This will surely grant us more power to beating Execumancer.
Colt's mind: I wonder if that purification can work on me too...?

They then saw Jane who caused a distraction by fake collapsing to cause attention from the citizens.

Crow: What's wrong with that chick over there.
Bo: I think-
Colt: That's no ordinary chick, that's Calamity Jane. She's a part of the Gold Arm Gang!

The gang were surprised.

Kaori: So you're saying that-

Suddenly the guards from the bank were being tossed away and beaten up.

Dark-Er: It seems like the Gold Arm Gang is robbing that bank over there.

Edgar and Tara got out.

Edgar: It's the sheriff!
Tara: Belle said that if we see him we have to buy her some time and distract him.
Edgar: And he's not alone.

Colt pulled out his revolvers.

Colt: Hold it right there punks!

He fired at the duo but they dodged the bullets.

Jane got up and she smiled and pulled out a revolver of her own from her one of stockings and aimed at Colt.

Jane: You're too late sheriff! The Gold Arm Gang will leave another mark!

Colt dodged the bullets.

Colt: Help me out guys.

They heard and explosion behind the bank.

Max: What was that?!
Col. Ruffs: We better go check it, some of you stay and try to fight off the gang members.

Max, Ruffs, Bull, Bo and Crow left to the back of the bank, while the others dealt with the other gang members.

Tara threw her piercing poker cards at the heroes but Kaori sliced them in half.

Mani: Klaatu!

He fired green orbs at Tara but she then threw a large gambling chip on the ground and it opened a portal that sucked the orbs.

Mortis dashed at Tara and tried to slice her but she used her wrists to block the attack and shoved the vampire away.

Colette and Squeak fired their attacks at Edgar who dodged all until he jumped above them.

With a ear piercing scream he did a double dropkick on the 2.

Colette slowly opened her eyes and saw Edgar eyeing her.

Colette: Edgar...
Edgar: Who are you?! How do you know my name?!

He then grabbed her by the throat with his scarf that formed a hand.

Colette: Wait...
Edgar: How do you-

Dark-Er tackled Edgar away.

Brock fired rockets at Jane but she rolled over and dodged them all.

Jane: Wow you're a terrible shot, sonny!
Brock: Imma make you eat those words you bitch!
Colt: She's only playing mind games with you, just chill out.

A huge hole was caused on the back wall of the bank that lead to the vault.

Belle: Good job Schwer.
Schwer: Thanks!
Belle: Alright Execumancer, it's your turn to shine.
Execumancer: Yeah yeah, let's just get this over with.

He used his powers to pull all gold bars from the vault and placed them in bags that were inside the carriage.

Then the heroes arrived, upon seeing them Execumancer stopped.

Execumancer: I knew you would chase after me!
Max: Wherever you go, we follow Execumancer!
Belle: Oh so these are the people you're running after? They do seem to be out of this world too.
Crow: So what Colt said was true, he did form an alliance with the Gold Arm Gang.

Belle laughed.

Belle: Oh so the sheriff told you about us huh? Or should I say my goodie two shoes son.
Bull: Anyone that's on Execumancer's side is an enemy of mine.
Col. Ruffs: Charge at them Bull.

He then pulled out his plasma shotgun and charged at them like a bull.

Bull: CHARGE!!!
Belle: Let me show you how it's done!

She pulled out her electric rifle and hit Bull with it and he was electrocuted.

Belle: Schwer, put that cannon to use!
Schwer: Yes ma'am!

He fired golden cannonballs at the heroes but they all dodged them.

Bo fired back at Schwer who dodged the shots.

Max then ran Execumancer and tried to punch him, but the Corrupted cyborg used his powers and pulled some gold bars and hit Max straight in the head with them.

Col. Ruffs: Take cover Max.

He then pressed a button and summoned 3 training dummies to shiled for them.

Crow jumped in the air and fired daggers at Belle who dodged them.

Crow swooped down and tried to kick her but Execumancer caught his foot and slammed the human/bird hybrid and slammed him hard on the ground.

Belle: Thanks for the save!
Execumancer: No problem, now let's get out of here!
Belle: Schwer!

He turned around and ran to the carriage and the 3 left as the horses ran.

They then signaled for the others and they immediatly ran to the carriage and jumped as they flead the town.

Colt whistled for his horse as it appeared for it's master, he got ontop of it and began chasing the Gold Arm Gang.

Max got up and grit her teeth pulled out an energy drink and chugged it before running full speed ahead at the gang.

Both Max and Colt were after them.

Tara: They're gaining on us.
Belle: Someone do something! Anything to-

Execumancer jumped off the carriage and then smashed the ground so hard that it cracked and forced Colt's horse to throw him off his tracks.

Max stopped and fired laser shots from her bracelet but Execumancer dodged every shot as he fired Corrupted magnetic waves at her, to which the feminine hero dodged them.

Max: What's the matter Execumancer, got demoted to a low class thug?
Execumancer: Nah I'm just helping them with this heist so that they could tell me the information that I need.
Max: What information?

She fired at Execumancer but he punched the shots away.

Execumancer: I ain't saying shit you slut!

He then teleported in front of her and punched her straight in the guts and Max wheezed.

Execumancer: You're weak!
Colt: Hey!

He fired at Execumancer and he turned around.

Colt: It's not fair to hit girls.
Execumancer: Boy or a girl, if it's a hero it doesn't matter to me. Plus this bitch ruined my image and left me to die. She needs to get a taste of what's to come.

He then kicked Max in the right elbow as she screamed in pain.

He grabbed her by the throat and tossed her across the scene, Colt went to her.

Colt: Max, you alright?
Max: Yeah...

She then pulled out the Corrupting Root from her pocket.

Colt: Does that thing purify people?
Max: Yeah... Touch it...

Colt touched it and his appearance began changing.

His clothes now became dark blue and his jacket became longer and a hat appeared on his head as it had a green orb and he had a green amulet around his neck.

His revolvers were now white.

Colt: Wow now this is purification?
Execumancer: It's still nothing against Corruption!

He then used his powers to create Corrupted magnetic waves at Colt but he dodged them and grabbed Max so she wouldn't get hurt.

Colt then fired his new Pure bullets at Execumancer, upon hitting his body he grunted in pain.

Colt: My new bullets have an effect on his skin.
Execumancer: I can do things much better than you ever could!

Then suddenly the rest of the heroes arrived as they saw the scene.

They stood by Max and Colt's side.

Execumancer: I can take you all on you-
???: NO! Retreat and regroup with the gang, we have much more important things.

Execumancer grunted.

Execumancer: FINE! Next time you won't be spared.

He then disappered in the air.

Dark-Er: We missed a lot haven't we?
Bo: And I see Colt is purified like us.
Colt: It was an honor.
Mani: So where do you think he's going now?

Max got up.

Max: To where the Gold Arm Gang is hiding.
Kaori: How do you know?

Max pointed at hoove prints with carriage tire tracks.

Mortis: She's up to something, we should go and find them now.

To be continued...

OK guys, this was chapter 8.

Peace out!
