Joe let out a weak cry as the weight of his body pushed the sharp shards further into his back. Please hurry! There we are. He finished. Pa, where is the medicine the doc left? Adam shot Ben a worried look. A tiny smile appeared while he visualized his mother sitting in the rocker. Quickly he took notice that they were both preoccupied with something that Dax was holding, almost cradling.. Run Joe. Why? Oh Joe. Joe Francis. The guy was huge, bigger than Hoss and as rugged looking as they come. Son, youre okay. Ben was promptly at Joes side. He closed his eyes remembering just when hed first met his assailants. Today was one of the first beautiful spring days there had been this year. He wanted to get away from the ranch, even if it was just for a few hours, especially after the confrontation he and Adam had had yesterday.

I.I froze. He couldnt hold it in anymore and a single tear slipped down his cheek. I shouldnt have had that beer. Adam was now burdened with guilt. Crimson blood immediately began to flow from the wound, quickly seeping into Joes shirt. Im sorry for what I said to you the other day. Over the next couple of weeks the Cartwrights were still bewildered about Little Joes refusal to talk about his terrorizing nightmares, however, they were there for him in case he wanted to open up. He was weak so weak. Ben and Hoss had no idea what was unfolding in front of them. What do ya got there son?. Hank, would you be willing to help the Sheriff and I find these., Pausing, he closed his eyes and clenched his teeth, then with a tear in his eye glanced back at Little Joes almost motionless damaged body, find whoever did this to my brother?
