Summary
Charles was by no means a good man. Being a bounty hunter was a sick irony that the universe had cast upon him. Being a sinner, pretending to be a saint. Yet, when given a bounty by a Mr. Dutch Van der Linde to hunt down an old associate, Charles discovers not a hardened master-mind of a criminal, but a father trying to raise his son.
---------------
AU where the Blackwater robbery was successful, but Arthur steals some of the money to save his son, John, and John's family. Charles is given a bounty to hunt him down and return the man to his leader, who he once considered his father.
