Chapter 7

*********************************************************************************

Just as the ruff and rugged way of conducting business is done out on the small towns and tiny provinces of the rim worlds and border planets, justice is pretty much conducted the same way. Eddie, Pete and Lattimer were not the only citizens of Warehouse Pass who’d formed a posse the day Flint Lattimer‘s stable had been robbed. Bill Waxen, Max Hargrove and Teddy Rosenthal, the hotel owner and two of Myka’s ranch hands respectively, had also form a posse to search for the stable owner’s stolen property.

These three men had launched a separate search for the horse thieves by taking their mounts east. Although they weren’t trackers, they could most certainly follow a trail. The horse tracks the thieves had made were defiantly not hard to follow and the two deputies tracks paralleled that of the horse thieves.

“ Look here!” Max told the others as the posse members studied the tracks in the dirt. “ Looks as if the crooks doubled back!”

“ Yeah,” Bill agreed,” Headed north. Looks as if the deputies followed too.”

“ Isn’t Whittaker’s Salvage Yard out that way?” Teddy questioned.

“ Yes it is, “ Bill said, “ ……and the county reclamation yard too, where they keep all property seized by Marshal Tate and the authorities of Dewayne County. Might be they headed that direction to steal a ship and head off planet!”

“ Maybe we can catch them!” Max concluded.

The three men spurred their mounts and headed north.

Ogopogo....haa haa haa.....

And Wash coming to 'save' them from jail. Very nice, though not sure he'd leave the ship. Of course, being Zoe and everything....that's different.

I liked the hide and seek comment by River. Sounds much like her.

As for Death Nail, he best know that going on board Serenity isn't the smartest thing to do. Mal don't like uninvited guest.

*Sidenote* I totally figured out Everett after I wrote that. LOL!! Too many things being read it one day*

Angelle! Good morning (or good afternoon)!

Yes, I perfectly understand about having a lot going on at one time. I figured that was what happened. Heck reading fan-fic and writing some of it myself I sometimes get side tracked in what’s going on in one of my own stories…. J

Yepper….Wash insisting that he be the one to free his wife from the confines of a jail cell is exactly what I wanted people to see. Your post was “Dead On” Angelle!

Yes, Mal having Death Nail invite himself aboard Serenity would certainly not be good! Serenity is their home, and as we all know you just don’t let anybody come into your house now do ya?

Mal may have other problems to worry about first though. That being taking care of his fares. Wouldn’t look good if paying customers aboard your vessel were suddenly seized by government officials and carted off to have their brains probed and prodded…..hee…..hee. Might find future customers choosing “Brutus” instead…ha….ha!

Thanks for your post Angelle……it had me smiling…….ZBP!

PS: Firefly fans remember “Brutus” don’t they?
