Entwined
Hearts
With Two quick Steps, He pushed his way through the Batwing
doors… Trying to swallow down the fear,… What do you want Mannon? .... Kitty
spit out! Whiskey!, he smiled,…Two
glasses!... Kitty swallowed hard,… Horrible memories came flooding back….. She
motion to Hannah for a bottle, and a Glass,… then slamming it before,him… I said
What do you want ? Nothin’ much Red!...
then looked to Hannah.. I said TWO…
Glasses…. When Hannah reach for another,… Kitty held up her hand,… I’m not
drinking!.. especially …NOT WITH YOU!,,,, now chuckling,… aweeee RED,.. Kitty
stood with her Jaws Tight…. Walking over
to the Bar staying close to Hannah….
You still didn’t answer my question?
Snickering at her…. Just gonna sit here and wait for the Big man!...
Well, He ‘s not here.. so you can just leave….
Shaking his head, .. I’ll Wait!
He’ll be here!... I’m sure of it!...He’ll be here! Mannon began growing impatient!...after
waiting for several Hours,…
You!,… Looking at Hannah, startling both Kitty and Hannah…..
Go find that nice brave young Mr. Newly….. O’Brien, ..was it? Hannah
looked to Kitty….. then he slammed down his glass… GO NOW! Kitty nodded, go ahead.. I’ll be fine… Hannah left to go find Newly, running into
Obee… Miss Hannah what’s wrong Ma’am?...
It’s that crazy man.. that Mannon… he’s in the Long Branch with Miss Kitty…he
sent me for Newly… He’s crazy… I don’t
trust him …not at all….. com’on let go
..
Mannon slowly got up…..walked to the door, shut and locked
the doors,… turned and Smiled and evil smile at Kitty…..Deju’Vu… What do you want Mannon? As he came closer…don’t come near me…you
stay away from me… from out-side everyone could hear crashing sounds coming
from the saloon… and Kitty screaming!
Obee and Newly ,… were pounding on the doors…
Mannon open the door!... Obee began to yell I’ll blow it open!!!... then
Mannon yelled Back… I’m gonna open this
door, but, if I see one gun… Red here is Dead!.... Newly ..Obee said …let me
shoot um’ NO! Obee he’ll kill Miss Kitty…
Ahhh Newly… Ok!..Mannon …no Guns… there’s No Guns…! When Mannon opened the doors…. Newly , Hannah
Obee and the others,.. all took a deep breath…. Mannon was standing with Kitty
in a choke-hold…. Their attention went straight.. to her face…. Her lip was
split,… her cheek swollen,… eye bruised… blood running from a cut above her
eye…. OK, Now ..Mr. O’Brien…, This
will get The Big Marshal here right
quick… you see to it……when Newly just stared at Kitty..Mannon broke his gaze…
NOW BOY MOVE!
Mannon Dropped Kitty to the floor,.. and walked calmly
across front street.. to the Dodge House….
Hannah and Obee, ..quickly,…. picked Kitty up off the floor,… Obee carried
her up to her room… Oh, Kitty ..I know I shouldn’t have left you with that
monster!.. shaking her head,.. No1 Hannah ..he would have hurt you… she
mumbled. Oh, Like he did you…. I
couldn’t let him hurt you… ohhhhh ouch….. let me see about cleaning you up…. I
just need to lie down… I’ll be fine… Sure you will….
I need to go check on Doc?.... NO!, ..I’ll do that , and
Bess is there….. You just Rest…
Newly rode as hard as he could … Knowing he had a place in
mind to find Matt….And he hoped he was right?....
Matt didn’t sleep much, he was thinking about what Jake had
told him about Mannon…. Everytime he closed his eyes ,… he saw the image of
Mannon,.. and the last time he was in Dodge,… then Kitty’s face…Battered.. and
Bruised! So he decided to pack-up and
ride back… ,then heheard the sound of a rider…. Being causious…. Waited… slowly peering ou a crack …pointing his
mussle out… hold it right there… don’t move!
Marshal? Marshal Dillon?... It’s
Newly ..Newly O’brien… Matt relaxed…opening the door… Newly ?...what..? ..Marshal,..
You’ve gotta hurry.. Mannon’s in Dodge.. and He’s …He’s Got Miss Kit.. he
didn’t even have a chance to finish… Matt was on Buck in a Flash… Let’s go
Newly! Newly could barely keep up….
