  • misterwolf Plot: In 1860, Thomas Stone, a lawman and farmer, reunites with his wife Willow and their daughter Harley, who has recently been expelled from school for fighting a bully, although she did not strike first and was only defending herself. Thomas expresses his proudness to Harley for standing up for herself, but is disappointed in the school for being indifferent to the importance of a child defending herself. To make Harley feel better, Thomas takes her on patrol with him and teaches her how to handle horses and to shoot guns. However, as they go home, they realize that they are walking into a trap. Telling Harley to hide, Thomas draws his gun and opens fire on his attackers, but is soon overpowered and fatally shot. Helplessly, Harley watches in horror as an outlaw named Marcus Kane shoots Thomas dead at point blank range. After the gang leaves, Harley takes her father's guns and swears revenge. Wanting to protect everyone she cares about, Harley runs away and leaves Reno, now declared missing.
  • misterwolf Fifteen years later in 1875, Harley is now an outlaw known as the "Lone Wolf". She has yet to find Kane and makes a living by hunting down infamous gangs to protect the less fortunate. However, when Harley receives news that Kane's men have robbed a bank, she reluctantly sets out to Reno for answers. Upon arriving at Reno, Harley enters the saloon and reunites with its owner, Lila Harris, who is her childhood best friend. However, as they have a conversation, a child is about to be killed by bullies with her abusive parents watching. Before this can happen, Harley saves the her and, by force, sends the bullies crying to their familes, much to the dismay of the girl's abusive parents. An enraged Harley challenges the father to a duel outside, and he accepts, overconfidently boasting that he will win. Harley draws first and wins easily, gaining significant attention and praise from many citizens for standing up against a needlessly abused child's parents.

Lila also points out to Harley that despite standing up for the girl many times, she still had to watch helplessly as she suffered more and more abuse. Restarting the conversation the two friends had, Harley and Lila catch up on their childhood memories. After that ends, Harley discreetly explains why she has returned to Reno. Lila reveals that several of Kane's men had gone rogue against him and are currently in the town as they speak. Harley then notices the board with names of people lined up to duel, next to Lila's desk and realizes that the next two weeks will be days of great gunfights. She then asks Lila to sign her up, as the next day is a day among those two weeks, and Lila agrees, but not before Harley takes note of Lila's warning that these fights are incredibly dangerous.

The duels are brutal and draw large crowds, but Harley’s focus is on gathering information about Kane’s rogue men. During a break, Harley visits Calvin Wilson’s clinic, where she reconnects with Calvin and Evelyn. Calvin, aware of the growing tension in Reno, warns Harley that Kane’s men have been poisoning the town’s water supply to weaken the locals and force submission. Evelyn discreetly provides Harley with herbal remedies to help her recover faster from injuries sustained in duels.

Harley learns that Kane’s men are using the duels as cover to consolidate power in the town.

Meanwhile, Evelyn reveals a secret: she once treated Marcus Kane for a gunshot wound, and knows a hidden weakness about him. As duels continue, tensions in Reno reach a boiling point. Harley faces off against another formidable opponent, barely surviving but winning through cunning rather than brute force.

However, she cannot find the grave, and she becomes frantic, searching for any sign of his resting place. As panic sets in, the elderly marshal of Reno, Frank Williams, who had followed her, appears by her side. "You can't find the grave here," Williams says gently. "They destroyed your old man's grave and burnt the body." Harley is horrified by this revelation, the loss hitting her anew. Yet, she feels a sense of gratitude as Williams, a friend of her father, stands with her in solidarity. She embraces him, thanking him for trying his best to give Thomas a proper burial. Returning to Reno with renewed determination, Harley helps the townsfolk prepare for the final confrontation with Kane. The community, inspired by her courage, rallies together, ready to defend their home. As the showdown approaches, Harley feels a renewed sense of purpose, knowing she is not alone in this fight.

Despite the looming threat, laughter and hope return to the town’s streets. Harley finds strength in this unity, knowing she’s not alone.
