My girlfriend and I were inseparable on our travels. Whenever we came to a town like this we knew right away if it was going to be good or bad. Unfortunately, this was one of the bad ones.
People from this town really didn't like seeing the two of us together. We got plenty of glares but we soldiered on. Now and again we had to make an example of someone who wouldn't mind their own business. I had some weapons for defence, but my girlfriend, a martial arts expert, had her fists and was deadlier than anything I could do.
I gave people plenty of warning but they laughed at the idea of someone with a slight, pretty frame being so deadly. We didn't want to make a blood soaked mess of the town but there were times we had no choice.
By the time we left the town on the other side, seemed slightly more civilised. We looked back and saw a few people waving to us in gratitude. We waved back before moving on with our travels.
