Chapter 1

"Hey, get out of here, I told you twice not to come around my place," yelled Frankie as he was grabbing the young man by the collar of his shirt.

"Whoa now hang on Frankie, what's your name?" asked Billy.

"Red Bear."

"Red Bear sit down, and Frankie here will cook you up something to eat," Billy sitting back down at the table.

"So Red Bear what tribe are you from, what are you doing here in Montana?" asked Billy.

"Well I left the city about a year ago now, my people are from the Lakota Sioux Tribe, I am originally from South Dakota, my mother died when I was very young, and my father could not handle the white eyes no more. So, he took me with him, and we became like the whites and lived as they did. When my father and I were civilized he got a job and we moved to Boston and he got a house out there. I went to school as well. Sometimes I asked him if he thought of the old ways when I was little. And if he wanted to go back, he did not answer me. So, one day when I graduated from the school in Boston I traveled here to Montana, and kind of living out in the woods," said Red Bear.

"Wow, well you came to the right place," said Billy.

"I know my father used to say when he meets what he calls wild Indians, he used to tell them "Times have changed, nobody lives in the forest, or the plains, or in the mountains, it is time to become like the whites, that is what he used to tell them," said Red Bear.

"Well your father is right, nobody lives that way anymore, times have changed but people haven't, would you like to join us?" asked Billy.

"Hin" (yes) I would, but there is one problem?" asked Red Bear.

"What?" asked Billy?

"I don't have a horse or a weapon," said Red Bear.

"Oh right I'll fix you up with a horse," Billy going outside to the barn.

"Here you can have one of my old pistols," said Lone Wolf.

"Pilamaya" (thank you)," said Red Bear in the Lakota language.

"Alright, now he has a horse to ride," said Billy walking back inside.

"Let's ride into town and celebrate our new arrival," Bob said with excitement.

So they got on their horses and rode into town.

As they arrived in town, Little Woman pulled the curtain back and saw her cousin and smiled. They tied up their horses on a post outside of the saloon and went inside and walked up to the bar.

"Can I have four drinks Steve?" asked Billy.

"Three drinks coming up Billy," said Steve.

"I said four not three," said Billy.

"We don't serve those savages here and you know it," Steve pointing at Lone Wolf and Red Bear.

"Says who?" asked Billy.

"As I said, Billy, we don't serve them here," said Steve.

"Am I going to have to repeat myself," said Billy.

"We don't serve them here," angered Steve.

"If you don't give me two more drinks I am going to put a bullet between your eyes and get them myself," Billy cocking his pistol in his holster.

"Now Billy I would be careful because I am too loaded," said Steve.

Lone Wolf grabbed Steve by the collar and said,

"Di ena mayaanii shils aash" (you enemy white man) my friend and I want our drinks, we don't want any trouble but you're making it a big problem," asked Lone Wolf in the Chiricahua Apache language.

"Alright that's it, all of you get out of my saloon, or I will have you arrested," shouted Steve.

"Come on guys we can get the drinks at Frankie's house," Henry said going outside and getting on his horse.

"Hi disho, egoyahan" (it is finished, until we meet again)," Lone Wolf said in the Chiricahua Apache language.

So they all started to turn around and walk towards the door when Steve pulled out his pistol, he fired at Lone Wolf, hitting Lone Wolf in the back of the shoulder, and Red Bear ducked and it made Steve miss. Billy quickly pulled his weapon and shot Steve in the shoulder as well.

"Billy," Henry running back inside.

"Someone shoots at me or my friends I am going to shoot back," said Billy angrily.

"I am fine he just got me in the shoulder," said Lone Wolf.

"I'll go get the Sheriff he'll understand the situation, when I come back you to have better still be here," said Henry walking outside towards the hotel that was very busy and loud inside.

"Sheriff Jason, come quick," shouted Henry over the crowd.

"What is it?" asked Jason.

"Steve," said Henry.

"What happened?" asked Sheriff Jason working his way to Henry and they stepped outside where they can talk to each other.

"Steve shot Lone Wolf he wouldn't give us two more drinks and Billy shot Steve," said Henry.

So Henry and Steve walked over across the street towards the saloon, they both walked inside.

"Well Steve lets hear your side of the story," said Sheriff Jason.

"That savage threatened me and Billy shot me, are you going to arrest them?" asked Steve in pain.

"No I'm here to arrest you for shooting an unarmed man," Sheriff Jason puled Lone Wolf's pistol out and showing it to Steve. There were still bullets in it.

"I told them to leave but they wouldn't, Miles look after things around here?" asked Steve.

"I will," said Miles wiping the counters off.

"Come on Steve," said Sheriff Jason.

Steve got out from behind the bar and went with Sheriff Jason and walked outside and they booked him in jail for a while. So, they all walked out of the saloon and got on their horses and rode back to Frankie's house. When they arrived, they got off their horses and walked up to the porch and opened the door.

"Frankie, where are you?" asked Bob.

"I am over here what happened?" asked Frankie getting up from reading a book?

"Lone Wolf got shot in the shoulder by Steve," said Billy.

"So, what did you do this time?" asked Frankie.

"Very funny," said Lone Wolf.

"No really what happened?" asked Frankie.

"Nothing all I wanted was drink and I turned around and Steve shot me from behind," said Lone Wolf.

"Did it hurt?" asked Frankie.

"Frankie," said Henry.

"Anyways sit down and I'll get it out," said Frankie.

"Hey, you got it, you're pretty good," said Bob.

"Yeah you might become a doctor," said Billy.

"I don't think so, I mean you have to go to school for that and I don't think Frankie would like that very much," said Red Bear.

"No, I wouldn't survive in the city, and besides I already know a lot of things," said Frankie.

"Like what?" asked Red Bear.

"Well I know how to cook, shoot things, and take bullets out of people," said Frankie.

So they all laughed and went upstairs and went to bed.
