Avery Dutton.

[I was out helpin Kayce with some cattle disappearing from one of the neighboring lands. They were coming into town an my office was flooded with calls. So as Mayor I had to investigate this as I was a hands on Mayor. Not some city slicker sitting behind a desk. Then I felt my phone ring. It was my beautiful wife calling me. I grinned as I answered my phone.] Hey baby girl. How's my sw...[My words stopped as I heard what you were saying. Ain't no one gonna hurt my wife or our family.] Babe. Get to the ranch as fast as you can. Get the kids and Tate and take em to my old secluded mountain man cabin in the woods the property. Should be safe there and no one knows bout it. I love you baby girl. Be safe. [I hung up the phone then ran over to Kayce in a hurry.] Kayce we gotta go. Mercs comin to the ranch we gotta go handle this shit. I told your sister to get all our kids and head to my old cabin. Come on let's go. [Gets in Kayces truck as we drove off to the ranch. Then sons of bitches gonna pay. Em fuckin with two ex military men's family.]

[I had been talkin to @rodeontrades about buying another horse he showed up with when I heard my daughter calling me.] Take a deep breath darlin everything is gonna be okay. [Soon as the phone call was done I went over to get my 44 Magnum from the lockbox in the kitchen. Then went over to my beautiful wife kisses your lips as I hold you close to me before speaking.] We're gonna get this done. When Elsa gets here go with her and the kids. [I then went over to @rodeontrades as we went out the back.] Travis this horse business is gonna have to wait. We got some mercenaries comin to think they can take our land. You and Raelynn got post up at the bunk house. I'll have Rip send some guys there. [I then got on the phone the phone with @brandedradiant] Lil darlin you and Rip get the boy over to where the guns are. Then take some of the hands to the bunk house. Travis and Raelynn are post up there.

[What a damn day to be comin back home fer a visit. Come home to find out people comin ta try ta kill us. I smiled as ya kissed me then kisses your lips in return.] Ya got it darlin. Shit the fuckin bunk house got good vantage point. Hey @brandedradiant come fuckin help me with these rifles. There's some extra walkie talkies in the bunk house y'all gonna need. @brandedcrow Hey Avery come on. We goin to the bunk house. [Sees Mike and Kayce pull up. Hollers at 'em.] Kayce! Grab some rifles for the bunk house come on let's get. [I grabbed about four ARs then started walking down to the bunk house.]

I have no doubt about that babe. You and @ropewithmama are the toughest bunch in the bunk house. [I held to ya tight rubbin your back as we headed on down to get in position. I weren't nervous. Hell knew my baby could gun down least a dozen mercs if em had that many. Hopefully these assholes would be a quick kill cause had tickets to see @singernrodeo @bootsndreams and @bootsnoctaves tonight in town. I looked in my bag seein all the shotguns shells. Shit I think am good ta go on this. Had plenty ammo for my 12 Guage.] Babe jus make ya got plenty ammo. I know ya probably kill em in one shot but ya know just in case others run out. [I then leaned over places a soft kiss an your lips before goin off over to @brandedcrow and @waywardrancher to see if they was ready.] Avery you an Kayce good to go? Got enough ammo? If ya run out tht hot lil Terminator of a wife I got will give ya some.
