738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnggUmmnQ2n
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMovpdQHSgb
(The gates to Fort Blood are open and Banks, Mo and Butch are loading their possessions onto a wagon. The Grand Commander makes his way over to Butch.)

738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBP1j6s5QH
GRAND COMMANDER
You sure you want to do this?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8XsxqWkV2
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ilJIrzGIV
BUTCH
I'm sure, Sir.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSL6Fwf6TWx
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7KZVv2XRS
GRAND COMMANDER
What is a man like you going to do out there? You're a soldier. You were a soldier the moment you stepped through those gates. Hell, you were a soldier even before that.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj7q7eGRX6
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5P6JWLs0ey
BUTCH
I have been a soldier for a long, long time. I just want to try not being one for a while. See how it suits me.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDutch8E3BW
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnuWtRJS9X
GRAND COMMANDER
Would it make any difference if I told you that you would be running this joint when I'm gone? I ain't got too many years left.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMg7zkcMEE
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjBJavGpCu
BUTCH
Mean old bastards like you live til they are 110.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ymIjull1L
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJxq7O9t6z
(Both men laugh.)
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLUafQoDMs
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC6Qxm4X5W
GRAND COMMANDER
Then you are really gonna do it? You're really heading west?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhnAFNYG1k
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmBmygl72a
BUTCH
Westward bound I am.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSnMdQpIdR
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkyqxXnXAD
GRAND COMMANDER
What the hell are you going to do in the west? Pan for gold? Become a skinner? Maybe you could be a barber?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTAuNjuc1S
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZlnJnRfcT
BUTCH
Meet a nice girl. Have a few kids. Grow old together. Sit in a rocking chair on my porch and chew tobacky and watch my grandkids raise hell.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHUdH2X2GP
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6XGS2cGEg
GRAND COMMANDER
Horse shit. You'd be bored to damn death after the first month on a farm.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TT3RN6MgC
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHOeQfIqYl
BUTCH
Who said anything about a farm? The Queen sent out a call for lawmen since Hendrick's Pass opened up after the quake. And I figure since I'm accustom to getting shot at being a Marshall might suit me.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkU8BkzyWqC
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OtK7XpDAi
GRAND COMMANDER
I guess I've heard worse ideas.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsECdQMFrsV
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVZwnYzxTj
BUTCH
I'm usually the one pitching those horrible ideas to you.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOAiCsRk5t
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniT5hsP1sp
GRAND COMMANDER
Compared to most of these yahoos your ideas are pure gold.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYarbjgblJ
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t4zkwdTd2
BUTCH
Maybe I'll go be the Queen's main idea man. Get rich doing nothing but winging out one bad idea after another.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dJMheQDZj
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehGHAugJ7f
GRAND COMMANDER
That sounds like a fine idea right there. You might be on to something.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpH9bv4BkW
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcQorvIzR8
BUTCH
Well it's settled then.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzIOOmxSUF
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx8XO8eeYd
GRAND COMMANDER
I wish I could spare you some horses, but you know how things are right now.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgfWpHAxDo
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTO7MoAW8m
BUTCH
I walked in here without shoes. I'm leaving here on a wagon with decent boots on my feet. I'm coming out ahead.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1hEnBjACb
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABNYQ5c8RW
(The Grand Commander shifts uncomfortably. He reaches into a pack he is carrying and pulls out an elaborately carved wooden box. He hands it to Butch.)
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV69F8uoWd4
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eUcUlo0Sv
BUTCH
What's this?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MV9OdLPQM
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0XJGySiRU
GRAND COMMANDER
A going away gift. When you told me you were leaving last year I had this commissioned for you.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzTqsNIp8O
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmm62XJBX3
(Butch takes the box and opens it. A black and silver six shooter is inside of the crushed velvet insides. The grip of the gun is jet black with a crimson flag engraved on it. It is a beautiful gun. Butch gives the pistol a once over and looks over every nook and cranny.)
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBZGOdplzA
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUrnS3l19w
BUTCH
Sweet damn! You're giving me Red Fire?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiL17Ehn6y
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdCuqKHYFj
GRAND COMMANDER
Hell no I'm not. It's Red Fire's twin.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ191hYNVcRw
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TpWtcm4rT
(The Grand Commander pulls his pistol, Red Fire, from its holster and holds it up next to Butch's new gun. They both look almost exactly the same.)
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiosJENFbzT
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn4CrdN54M
BUTCH
It's twin? It's so light. And balanced. Is this from the Capitol?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BAPE7rUM2
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdd4uVI8GT
GRAND COMMANDER
That it is. Had the enchantments laid on it by Ingram himself in the capital. You won't come across its like again.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFemPZSh1G
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HF2fMANfD
BUTCH
This is an Ingram? Dear gods! But how could you afford this? Even the lords of the high houses have a hard time scraping together enough for an Ingram!
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrF2GucW1L
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymn4FwW8Ia
GRAND COMMANDER
Let's just say I called in a few favors. Ingram himself owed me one. That's the fine thing about being the Grand Commander of a fighting force like ours. After a while high ups start owing you lots and lots of favors. It's called Scarlet Rain. May it bring you luck and prosperity in your endeavors as a marshal.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LS1W9GU6O
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfRiAhsWIv
BUTCH
I can't take this, Grand Commander. It's too much.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l5vjUlH2e
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSs4J0Rr7n
GRAND COMMANDER
You can and you will. You're the finest soldier I've ever had the pleasure of serving with. You deserve it.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxVPpPJNkh
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vVEIGx8fA
BUTCH
It'll never leave my side. When I'm laid to rest it will go to my first born son. And his after.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QkOMJp4QJ
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSvxhG1HET
(The two shake hands. )
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5N7rUJXJv
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvNRHD9vd9
GRAND COMMANDER
Giving you this widow maker isn't the only reason I'm here. I have two favors to ask of you.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxTvHhAclR
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38xjhOOraB
BUTCH
If I can be of assistance you know I will.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzVlWzVkn1
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrsTCd1f2O
GRAND COMMANDER
I know you will. The first thing I have to ask is Brigade business.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhVsQ8uovj
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xkuz75kq9
BUTCH
How so?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcsiGns6V8
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMZR1fSYZz
GRAND COMMANDER
Billy and Eustace got back from Jackson's Point this morning. Marius deserted sometime in the night.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuz8OjCN5yR
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf6oPNvEef
BUTCH
Son of a bitch. Mari? He don't seem like the deserting type.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ6IGeUxu8
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRecBTWf3C
GRAND COMMANDER
I didn't think so neither.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BMUW4VuBc
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNzhZ76EPL
BUTCH
They sure?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5mRBwXlyQ
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVXGulBW1D
GRAND COMMANDER
He was talking about some woman he had on the way to Jackson's. Got to drinking that night and said he couldn't live without her no more. In the morning he was missing. As was his horse and belongings. Local drunk said he seen him mount up in the wee hours and head west.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtB7KrIKY0
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qq38V79Rt
BUTCH
Well I'll be. Why didn't Billy and Eustace track him?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhFC7cBr0r
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1ZxGESKRw
GRAND COMMANDER
They had a wagon full of supplies and nobody to guard it. With Reverend Rose in the area it was too dangerous for one of them to go alone. So they hightailed it back here knowing we would send someone to find him.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzciLFdRYM
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoqcyE6tpO
BUTCH
You want us to keep an eye out for him?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpS8BbDGRE
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHGP3jmEbH
GRAND COMMANDER
If it wouldn't be too much trouble. I'm sending Raymond, Reggie and twenty men south in case he heads that direction, but my bet is he'll be headed for Hendrick's Pass like you. So it will be likely you will cross paths at some point heading west. We can't have deserters.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJKrdymwhf
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo4UfbTUne
BUTCH
No we can not. If I find him I'll do what needs to be done.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQadxsllweX
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKbnUxaNIy
GRAND COMMANDER
I knew I could count on you.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu4YfpLoiV
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBQ3I9t028
BUTCH
And the other favor?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqRXCMBD39
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6nwYeOOHh
GRAND COMMANDER
This one's of a personal nature. My son, Eddy, is looking to head west like you.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQf0pVpaRL
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aiXqKqROc
BUTCH
He out of the stockade?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdrRao2liH
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZtLg5qxXq
GRAND COMMANDER
(With a shameful look and tone in his voice.)
The irons were taken off today. He was dishonorably discharged this morning.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTZjOQHjG6
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyg4VMlpsF
BUTCH
Eddy might not have been a good soldier, but he is fine company to keep on the road. It'll make the trip a damn sight more livelier with him.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozbJHAxuNy
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYhTUmcVtp
GRAND COMMANDER
(Smiling once again)
That it will. If you could just get him as far as Evergreen without any bullet holes in him I would be much obliged.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhs3Tki9OI
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1KeFogj6N
BUTCH
It'd be my pleasure, sir. It looks like the others are ready. Is Eddy packed for travel?
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotZwVkUVpE
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GQEAqysEa
GRAND COMMANDER
I packed his belongings for him. They are already on the wagon.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntmmuWnECX
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZUHV3FIXa
BUTCH
Well then I'll go fetch him.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ikU6WO4gz
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOCocZNLh8
GRAND COMMANDER
No need. Here he comes.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPR8wVuKXlo
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqepzgMpm6
(Eddy comes out of the stockade room with a long coat and shabby looking hat. He has a rifle strapped across his back. He walks to Butch and the Commander.)
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jb1vJFKyp
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VjeIstJov
EDDY
(Addressing the Commander.)
Well, Pa, I guess this is goodbye.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBnpjqLe4J
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86bmYv35Nz
GRAND COMMANDER
It is. Keep your nose clean. I had to pull a lot of strings to keep you out of the dungeon at the keep. Out west you're on your own.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKI5L9nuc9
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq7bvcb19Z
EDDY
Awwwww is that your way of saying you'll miss me? You'll miss throwing me in the stockade every other week.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYdv7Nc8oe
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjEA0wRf6y
GRAND COMMANDER
I ain't mixing words with you today, Eddy. I secured you passage to Evergreen. Goodbye.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YvvZvkj2o
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsXhWyyfzL
(The Grand Commander nods to Butch then spins on his heel and walks away. )
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlyUxGtEd4
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3J2iumyzX
BUTCH
It's been a while, Little Ed.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9h4eKN488
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS94Kjnd9q
EDDY
Indeed it has, Butch my man. I would have written, but the jailers in the stockade have kept me all kinds of busy. I'm pretty sure one of them was sweet on me.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQUgFLTyr3
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPMeymqYCE
(Both men laugh.)
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhyUX1GCPU
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjOSnZAfAC
BUTCH
It's good having you with us. Your obscenities are always welcome on the trail.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U6oMe9KuM
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ4zorGAP1
EDDY
(Jumping on the wagon.)
Let's get out of this shit hole.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGXYsRqjFK
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOQ8sWQrZb
(Butch whistles loudly.)
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgidVoQHoh0
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThLMJcmkaw
BUTCH
Banks! Mo! Let's hit the trail. I want to be at Dusty's before nightfall!
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo8xiwS6A2
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku00Xq9gxJ
MO
Hey have you guys seen Mari? I have some throwing knives I want to give him as a parting gift.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNLWrHbiuW
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsso6F2tFH
BUTCH
(Looking troubled. )
I'll tell you about Mari on the way.
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZpsRbYKhE
738Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiLkEdsbVW
(Banks and Mo say their final goodbyes to their fellow soldiers then hop on the wagon. The soldiers all wave goodbye to their friends. Except for Eddy. Eddy stands up and moons everyone as the wagon is heading out the gate. Everyone laughs. Even the Grand Commander cracks a smile before shaking his head and walking away.)
