[ TT ] Write a Wild West adaption of a Greek myth . ( Inspired by the original cowboy , the minotaur . )

Listen here, Woman. There was a man long before our time who was the rootinest tootinest gunslinger in the West. He and his men suffered, traveling the open range, and pioneering our way into the wild west. They survived by eating ol ’ hot-headed Harrison ’ s beef – and that rightly pissed him off. He was an old cantankerous man who practiced some wicked juju. He shot his revolver at us screaming, “ Y ’ all ’ ll never make it home! I tell you what! I reckon you ’ ll NEVER see anyone you know again! ” Well lady, even though he ’ s been among the willows and he ’ s long dealt with Harrison, I know a few bad eggs who made him wish he ’ d never been born. ‘ Bout time I yarn the hours away.

 Marcus scampers off past the Poker table and spits on the man in black ’ s shoes as he heads out the door. 
 
 “ I ’ mma kill that goddamn kid if he does that again. He ’ s a rotten little shit, and I ’ m gon na wring him by the neck and drag him with my horse. ” Anthony mumbled to Eustace and Phil. 
 
 “ She shore is a purdy lady, Anthony. I reckon I ’ d marry her in a heartbeat. ” said Phil with his hat over his heart and his eyes wide with lust and love. 
 
 “ Shut up, the both of you. Making damn fools of y ’ all and making a damn fool of me, too. Need to be more cordial around the beauty that is Penny. SHE ’ S THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I ’ VE EVER SEEN. ” Eustace says, grinning from ear to ear while tipping the bill of his hat towards Penny.
