They called him Kid, fastest quickdraw in the West, with hands so fast they were a blur, drawing and firing in a smooth, quick movement so fast it was almost impossible to see.
At least, until you felt his bullet pierce your chest.
It was a good thing he was a force for good, Kid mused as he lounged beside his partner 'Ironhorse' Tetsuma, otherwise...well, he didn't often think of otherwise. He instead focused on the easy peace in his town (interspersed with short bursts of violence), and his surety that it would all end soon.
If things began well, they didn't end well - that was Kid's motto.
It was a motto that proved true again when the Devilbat gang rolled into town. Kurita 'Meat Tank' Ryoukan, Musashi '60 yard Magnum' Gen, Kobayakawa 'Golden Legs' Sena, and their leader Hiruma 'Devil' Youichi; the Devilbat gang was reputed to be an unpredictable lot, a gang of misfits rounded up and led by the very devil himself.
He didn't, however, expect that unpredictability to include having Sena apologizing profusely after accidentally crashing into him. "Hey, fucking shrimp!" Hiruma snarled at his subordinate, "there's no need to apologize to the fucking bastard we've come here to kill!" The Devilbat gang leader gave Kid a huge, menacing grin, showing off his teeth, sharpened into points. "After all, he'll be dead soon anyway."
Kid was unimpressed. "Hiruma Youichi, leader of the Devilbat gang, with the specialties of intimidation and mind games."
"I see you've heard of me," Hiruma drawled lazily, cocking his gun.
He then promptly fell forward as Sena stumbled, hitting him from behind.
"CUT!! Kobayakawa! What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry!" The young actor let out a yelp as Hiruma leapt to his feet, cursing as he pulled a machine gun from nowhere. He fired the weapon into the ceiling, muffling the words he was yelling at his companion.
Kid, better known as Mushanokiji Shien, released the plastic gun with a sigh. Nothing that started well, ended well.
