Juilian: If there ever comes a day when the Earp heir cannot carry out their duty
Juan Carlo: A protector will rise to assist the heir
Wyatt Earp: And who might this protector be? I have Peacemaker what more is needed?
Juilian: A shield called
Juan Carlo: Lex et ordo
Wyatt Earp: Well give it here we don't have a bunch of time I have criminals to put behind bars
Juilian: It's not yours to have or pass down like we said we will chose a mortal to help you defend the Garden
Wyatt Earp: Don't I get a say in who the protector is? Like my good friends Robert Svane or Doc John Holliday
Juan Carlo: Afraid not Earp Lex et ordo will chose, if you do not believe us then try to pick him up yourself
Wyatt Earp: Don't mind if I try (Goes to pick up shield) Ow

Flash Back Year 1996
Female Voice Run Nikki run
Another Voice: Ah (Screams in the distance)
----
I ran as fast as my six year old legs could take me away from the screams. I don't remember how long I ran, just that it was important to not stop so I kept going till I thought that I would collapse. I smelled it then, burning wood, and it spur me to run faster to call for help, to find refuge. When I got closer to the smell of burning wood I heard a baby’s wail. Once I got to the burning fire I noticed that it was a wooden barn on fire. I rushed into the burning collapsing barn to see if the baby was in there.

Crack
Thud
Baby: Wa Wa (Crying)
Girl voice 1: It's alright I got you now we have to get out of here
Crash
Thud
Girl Voice 1: It's alright baby you're safe now I think, question is where are we?
Girl Voice 2: Waves baby oh thank god you are okay (Snatches baby from girl)
Girl Voice 3: You should get out of here
Girl Voice 1: I hope the little one is okay (Starts runny away)
------
I ran off once the older looking girl told me to get going. I ran back to the campsite and much to my horror it was a complete blood bath. I ran from the site in case the bad guy thought to come back. I ran in a different direction until I could not run any more . My adrenalin was all but spent by the time I reached a river.

Year 2016
Bang
Female Voice: Wynonna?!
Wynonna Earp: Hey you grew, your hair longer?
Female Voice: Champ get lost and you, when did you get back and why are you trying to screw my boyfriend?
Wynonna Earp: Just now and barf I would not touch that boy toy with a stick now fill me in what's going on here in Purgatory?
-----
So Waverly grew up who knew she would grow up to be as gorgeous as she is, but I guess that happens when you don't pay attention. Anyways as luck would have it I could not stop thinking about this place no matter how much booze or sex I had to try and forget. Those demons haunt me in my dreams unfortunately for me they are literal demons and not the ones in the movies and tv. Now back to the topic at hand I need to find that gun also what is she rambling on about this time? Oh crap I think I was caught not listening damn!
-----
Waverly Earp: You're not even listening are you?
Wynonna Earp: Phish I am totally listening
Waverly Earp: Then what did I say?
Wynonna Earp: Something about something?
Waverly Earp: No I was talking about the family curse
Wynonna Earp: Yeah what about it?
Waverly Earp: You’re here because of it aren't you I mean your birthday was only a month ago oh and the gun is safely in Sheriff Nedley's office in case you were wondering
Wynonna Earp: He's still the sheriff? Isn't he getting a bit old for the job?
Waverly Earp: Wynonna
Wynonna Earp: What he was sheriff when daddy was shot and that was a while back
------
Gosh Wynonna can be a handful not only does she not respond to any of my letters I sent to her in Greece she has the audacity to come home and accuse my boyfriend of knowing stuff about revenants better known as demon criminals that were originally shot by our great, great grandfather Wyatt Earp. She owes me more than a drink. I think she owes me a whole bar at this point but who's keeping track, oh right I am because Wynonna ran off and god knows what. I wonder how long she is staying this time or if she is only here to see me then be off when I become the heir.
-------
Male voice: You Wynonna Earp
Wynonna Earp: Depends on who is asking
Male Voice: Name is Xavier Dolls I work for the US Marshal Black Badge Division better known as the BBD I know about your family curse
Waverly Earp: Your with the government and how I mean daddy was a lawman, but I don't think he worked for BBD
Xavier Dolls: That classified information
Wynonna Earp: Okay cool it tough guy, my baby sister has a right to know stuff just as I do, so start taking
Xavier Dolls: There are more demons out there then in the Ghost River Triangle that is Purgatory I am offering you a job to work as a deputy under me providing that you can shoot the gun
Waverly Earp: You mean Peacemaker and she should be able to I mean she did turn 27 not too long ago also there are more demons out there?
Wynonna Earp: Okay crazy, and here I thought I was the crazy one, but hey if I shoot the bad guys and I am not put behind bars sure why not, when do we get started
Xavier Dolls: As soon as you have the gun is when we get started, and you if you have any notes research notes we could use you in the office
Waverly Earp: Sure I mean I still have to work at Shorty's but I will help
Xavier Dolls: Good we will be stationed at the back of the Police station I need to talk to the sheriff but once things are settled I expect both of you in the office tomorrow morning dismissed
-----
What a stick in the mud straight laced guy, I still find it funny his name is Dolls I mean like the things that a little girl plays with, but hey who am I to judge. Well I guess I better get Peacemaker so my new boss doesn't flip out on me the first day.

Author's Note: What do you think? I am alternating between points of views so I hope it's not too disorienting. Another thing I will be changing things here and there from what is the original canon. The gun at the bottom of the well is not a thing in my story, Nedley took the gun for safe keeping till Waverly or Wynonna grew up.
lex et ordo is Latin for Law and Order check google translate that is what I used
