The Sheriff of Black Rock Part 4 by M.C. Tough western town tamed by tougher woman sheriff. A story inspired by the beautiful and powerful Sheila Burgess Sheila was now faced with a dilemma. She could either go after the bank robbers and leave the jail unprotected or simply allow the robbers to escape. As she pondered her situation Mary came over to her and remarked, " gee Sheila, it's too bad you can 't be in two places at once ". When Sheila heard this her beautiful face broke into a smile, " why thank you Mary for that wonderful idea ". Sheila began to walk back towards the sheriff 's office with Mary following. " I don't understand when you intend to do ", Mary said; perplexed. " You 'll see ", Sheila responded. When she entered her office, Sheila took out a box and placed it on her desk. She winked at Mary and said," I'll be right back ". Sheila entered the room with the jail cells and opened up Jim 's. " Jimmy, honey, I'm in a little bit of a bind and I need you to help me out ". The six foot - three inch 220 pound man stood up and towered over the five foot - six inch 170 pound woman. He glared down at her with contempt. " No way I'm helping you out Lady ", he scowled. Sheila looked up at him and comely said, " I'm sorry to hear you say that. But you see, you 're going to help me whether you want to or not. Now I don't have time to argue with you so I'm afraid I'm going to have to get a little bit rough ". When she finished saying that, Sheila fired off a solid right cross to his jaw and followed it up with a hard left to his stomach. As he keeled over, Sheila bent down and effortlessly lifted him up on her shoulder and carried him back to her desk. She placed the barely consious man on her chair and tied him up. She stuffed a gag in his mouth and then opened the box. " I'm so glad I brought this along ", she said; " I thought it might come in handy ". As Mary watched, Sheila took out a red wig - the exact length of her own beautiful hair. She placed the wig on Jim 's head, lit a lanturn and put it behind him. " There, now anyone watching from the outside will believe I'm still here won't they ?" Both women looked at Jim and giggled." He's so pretty isn't he ?" Mary remarked. Sheila smiled and said," please excuse me - I have some bankrobbers to catch ". She snuck out from the back door, mounted her horse, and rode off into the night. Although the bankrobbers had a headstart, they did not expect the woman sheriff to follow them, especially at night. Because of this they were very careless about hiding out. After about an hour of riding they stopped and made camp for the night. What they hadn't planned on was Sheila's keen ability to track in the dark. She had little difficulty finding them. When she discovered their whereabouts, she dismounted - leaving her horse far enough away so as not to arouse suspicion. As she snuck up on their campsite she noticed they didn't even post a guard. Sheila smiled. " Never underestimate a man's ability to underestimate a woman," she said to herself. As she listened to them brag around the campfire about how easy the holdup was, Sheila overheard them say that it was Jeff Stevens who asked them to rob the bank. These were the Russell boys, the most feared bankrobbers in the State. " Well now, I think I've heard enough ", Sheila said. Standing up, and boldly entering the camp, the mighty woman faced the four vicious men. " Good evening, boys. My name is Sheila - the sheriff of Black Rock. I believe you took something that doesn't belong to you and I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to return it; and accompany me back to jail .I have some nice, comfy cells waiting for you ". Sheila knew that they wouldn't comply, of course. She just wanted to make her presence known in as polite a way as possible - no point in being rude. The four startled men jumped to their feet and drew their guns. But, as with the cowboys, they were no match for the lightning quick reflexes of Sheila. She outdrew them and shot their guns right out of their hands. Smiling, knowing what would come next, she returned her guns to their holsters and comely waited for the four large, tough men to attack her. She wasn't disappointed. " Let 's get her men ", George Russell - the gang's leader - roared out. " There's four of us against just one woman ". Sheila couldn't help laughing at that. As the Russell boys converged upon her, Sheila sighed -this was her favorite part. Ten minutes later, the four big, strong men lay in a neat pile - battered and beaten. Sheila stood nearby, comely brushing her hair. All night long Jeff Stevens' men kept a vigil outside of the sheriff 's office. All they could see was a silhouette in the shape of a figure with long hair from behind the curtains. Such was their respest for Sheila's fighting abilities that they didn 't dare make a move because they thought she was in there. When morning came they witnessed a very strange sight. Riding into town, from the same direction that the Russell boys left the night before, was Sheila. Behind her, tied to her horse, were four other horses. On each horse, straddled over the saddle, was a man. As the procession entered the town all the people could see that each man had his pants pulled down below his ankles, and that each man's rear end was very, very red. Sheila flashed her beautiful smile as the people of Black Rock cheered. Once again, she had proven more than a match, for any challenge a man can offer. After tossing the humiliated Russell boys into their jail cell, Sheila turned to Mary and said," I think it's time I had a little talk with Mr. Stevens. But first, I'll have a cup of coffee. She removed her wig from Jim's head and said, " thank you for your help, Jim.....you made such a pretty me ".Both Mary and Sheila began to giggle at that. Jim, humiliated beyond control, crunched up his fists and began to move towards Sheila; and then a strange thing happened. Mary intercepted Jim and, turning to Sheila said," you go ahead and enjoy your coffee - I'll handle this ". Sheila smiled and sat down. Mary, only five feet three inches tall, was dwarfed by Jim. But she didn't seem to be afraid. Unstead, she boldly said to him, " I've been wanting to do this for a long time, Jimmy. So let 's get it on ". Showing confidence she never knew she had, Mary hurled herself at the much larger man. With fists flying she easily battered Jim around the office, lecturing him at the same time. " We could have been good for each other ", she said as she slammed her right fist into his nose. " But you let booze come between us", a hard left into Jim's mid section. " I don't want to see you take another drink again, understand ? " A solid right uppercut to his jaw. After a few minutes of this, Jim was begging her to stop. Mary stood over the fallen Jim and said in a firm voice, " only if you promise to stop drinking and agree to pick up our relationship from where we left off, will I stop beating you. If not, I'm going to beat you up every day from now on; is this clear ? " Jim, crying freely by this time, had no other choice but to accept Mary 's terms. As the triumphant woman held up her arms in a victory pose, Sheila smiled approvingly. " What did I tell you, Mary - a woman can do whatever she sets her sights on ". She took one more sip of her coffee and said," and now, if you'll excuse me, I think it 's time I had my 'talk' with Mr. Stevens ". The mighty Sheila rose from her chair, stepped out of her office, and began walking towards the gambling parlor.
