alright, honey?” he asked, walking to her and taking the smoking gun from her hand, and attempting to hug her.
    “No thanks to you , Will Davies,” she replied, pushing him away.  “Where were you when this was going on?  Didn’t you see them ride into town?”
    “No, Darcy, I didn’t,” he admitted.  “I was busy dealing with another situation and just got back from the Harper place.”  He felt like spanking the sassy woman again!  She could make him angrier in less time than anyone else he knew.  “What happened?”
    “They was trying to rob me, Sheriff.  Miss Darcy stopped them cold.”
    “She saved my life, Sheriff!” Waldo commented, and he was already planning the story he would write for the special edition of his paper.
    “He was going to drag Darcy off and abuse her!” Shelly told the Sheriff, putting her arm around Darcy’s slender shoulders in a protective manner. “Darcy reacted and saved all of us while I was trying to think of something I could do to help.  I was so frightened!”
    Vivian tapped Will on the shoulder and then said, “You are no longer the right person to be wearing that badge,” Vivian declared. “I am going to tell everyone to vote for Darcy.”
    “No!  I am no longer running for office,” Darcy insisted.
    “What?  You finally came to your senses, little girl?” Will taunted, secretly thrilled she was giving up on the idiotic idea.  He really should have spanked her sooner.  The last one worked miracles, and he fully intended to warm her behind every time she started getting too sassy.  Right now, he would overlook her sass because she had to be shaking from dealing with the two outlaws he recognized as Alex and Nate Murdoch, cousins from Arizona.
    “My grandmother asked me not to run, and I am withdrawing out of respect for her.” Darcy didn’t like his assumption.
    “I do believe you know you can’t win, and that is why you’re backing off.”
    “I need a doctor!” Nate screamed. “Why are you two just standing there talking?  I need help and relief from this pain!  And what about Alex?  Is he still alive?”  The man sounded like he was going to start crying at any second.
    “Sheriff, I want, no, I demand these men be charged with attempted murder!” Waldo emotionally declared. “If not for Miss Darcy, I would be dead.  She is a real hero, and she is perfectly capable of wearing a badge and keeping the town safe.  I will report that in my newspaper, too.”  He took Darcy’s hand in his and then said, “Miss Darcy, thank you from the bottom of my heart for saving my life.  I have had no experience in dealing with bullies like those, and you knew exactly how to handle them.  Thank you.  I truly mean that!  Thank you for my life!”
    Darcy wanted to scream!
     

     

Chapter Three
     
    Editorial April 15, 1871
    I have felt no compelling or urgent need to print a special edition until today.  Today, I was almost killed by a crazed outlaw, and Miss Darcy Hamilton saved my unworthy life.  Our Sheriff was nowhere to be seen until Miss Hamilton finished dealing with the situation.  I went into the General Store when I saw that Miss Hamilton was shopping in there, hoping for an interview.  Two disreputable and unscrupulous men were in the store, holding everyone at gunpoint, and threatening the women with unspeakable acts, and I learned too late that I walked in on a robbery in progress. 
    Miss Darcy was doing her best to talk the men down and send them on their way.  One of the men was incensed, and said he was going to take her with him.  He tried to grab her and she flipped him in some kind of Asian move she must have learned somewhere.  That man’s name is Alex Murdoch, and he is wanted in three other states besides this one. 
    His cousin, Nate Murdoch, was incensed by Miss Hamilton’s heroic act, and decided to kill me, to punish Miss Hamilton for some reason I cannot fathom.  I was positive I was going to die, but she
