The Cowboy (pic and story)

     Old farmer Douglas had left his ranch to his youngest son.  Bruce was always a good hand with horses and cattle, but had zero tolerance for indians.  His father had often made trades with the local tribes in exchange for protection.

     Bruce didn't seem to think he needed any protection.  He figured he was strong enough and had a spot-on aim.  That was more than enough to keep anyone intimidated.  Plus he knew the local tribe was known for bloody conflicts with the white-man.  And Bruce didn't want any part of supplying them

     When they came time for the natives to come to trade for horses, Bruce was disrespectful to the utmost with their chiefs.  The young warriors were quick to pick up on his arrogance.

     Three of them drew back their bows just as Bruce spat in the face of the old chief.  A quick release and the arrows rammed into his abs with a heavy thud, slamming him backwards into the hay.  The strong and arrogant cowboy didn't last long.

     The chief relieved the rancher of his cattle, horses and scalp.

     Bruce thought he was strong enough to survive in the wild west.  It appears as if the local natives proved him wrong.
