Thread: Forbidden  Affiars ( Marie Massacre & CrimsonMaster )

RE A Forbidden Affiar Marie Massacre CrimsonMaster Both sides of the war had their share of heroes villains...but only one man had become such a thorn in the sides of both governments that he was hunted by their armies that man was Major Bartholomew Bart Taylor....better known as Butcher Bart. Taylor a cavalry officer who served under General Bragg had been a hero to the people of the south....and although that would have been good enough for some it wasn't for Taylor. He wanted more out of life and thought that the confusion of war would be the perfect cover for his plans. Taylor was planning a takeover of the Confederacy.....but to do that he needed money.....a lot of money. Over a three month period Taylor and 12 of his most loyal men had been stealing gold from the Confederacy dressed as Union Soldiers. Taylor wanted Jefferson Davis to blame the Union which would keep the war going until he had enough money to overthrow the southern government. Taylor had made one mistake which was being seen by one of the men under his command who wasn't part of his inner circle. This young officer reported to General Bragg that he saw Taylor and others dressing in federal uniforms not far from where the raid on the gold shipment took place. General Bragg then set a trap for the Major his men....he made sure that Taylor knew about a large shipment of gold which would be passing nearby then Bragg waited for Taylor to strike. When Taylor his men hit what they thought was the shipment all they found was armed Confederate Soldiers and General Bragg. Taylor tried to talk his way out of trouble by offering Bragg the chance to join him but Bragg would have nothing to do with such a despicable plan and punched Taylor in the mouth. At his court martial Taylor vowed revenge on Bragg but before he and those men caught with him could be taken to prison they escaped with the help of a few of Taylor's men who hadn't been caught. Taylor then became an outlaw raiding both sides of the war...killing.....stealing....and raping women at will. Although he his men still wore the Confederate uniforms and Taylor spoke like a southern gentleman the people of the south saw them as being worse then the yankees. Since his escape Taylor had been planning on how he would get back at General Bragg. Taylor knew that he would never get close enough to Bragg to do anything to him but Taylor did know about the General's lovely daughter Anna Marie. Taylor knew that if he could kidnap Anne Marie then force her into marriage with him that would hurt Bragg deeply knowing his daughter was with that monster. Taylor had been stalking the movements of Anna Marie over the past few weeks...he knew when she went somewhere and when she would return. Then came the day that she would be going into town....she would only have one person with her some young Indian boy who wouldn't stand a chance against devils like Taylor his men. Taylor watched as Anna Marie the Indian boy left the plantation but they didn't head for town....instead they headed to a quiet area near the woods where Taylor watched the Indian help Anna down but she fell on top of him then the Indian boy kissed Anne Marie. Earlier that morning Thomas stepped out of his tent taking a deep breath of fresh clean air then walked towards where the morning patrol was getting ready to leave. Sergeant Major Timothy Quincannon stood near Thomas's horse holding him while the Colonel approached. Quincannon has served in the army for many years and being from Boston Like Thomas took the young officer under his wing keeping him safe. Quincannon was a big burly Irishman with a thick accent and as Thomas has pointed out many times had a tremendous thirst for Irish whiskey. Quincannon jumped to attention then saluted Thomas which was followed by the other troopers who were riding on the patrol. Thomas returned the salute. Ready to go Sergeant Major? Thomas said as he looked at the troops their horses. Yes Sir.......the morning patrol is ready.....Sir!! Quincannon said in a loud booming voice then Thomas nodded giving him a smile before he mounted his horse. MOUNT UP!! Thomas ordered as he looked back at the men who climbed onto their horses. Let's move them out Sergeant Major. Thomas said as Quincannon yelled back for the men to move out.....the patrol left the Union camp heading out to scout the area looking for any signs of the Confederate Cavalry who always liked to pull an end run maneuver catching the Union from behind.
