"Yes baby your bags are packed and the horse is ready, this shirt here you go then."*Reaching over grasping the shirt but not before inhaling his sweet smell. Reaching back down allowing the shirt to slide back down my arms over my firm ass. Grasping the shirt walking it over to my husband.* "Here you go baby"*Moving over taking my short robe off the back off the couch, placing it on as it fall right to my hips.* "Dam Cheryl"*My jaw drop as my pants tightens in the front, walking over taking my shirt. Grabbing my bags, grasping Cheryl in my arm's kissing her then leaning forward twisting her around in my arm. Pulling her back up* "I love you Cheryl, well I am off."*Moving outside down the steps looking back to Cheryl, shit she looks so fine wish I didn't have to leave. Wish I could tell her, moving over to the stables. Placing the saddle bags onto the horse, bending my left knee up stepping into the stirrup. Stepping up swinging my right leg over into the stirrup, pulling on the rains as my horse backs up. Moving around tapping his belly with my spurs as we gallop down the dirt path heading for Harriett as I meet up with Keanu as we ride south*

*Galloping through the hillside crossing a creek, the horse kicking up dirt and mud. Cocking my head as Keanu rides along beside me but the rides back 5 feet as the path narrows.*
Keanu: "So sir so how did you wife take it, are you gonna tell her what we do. Forgive me I know it's not my place, so what did Harriett want."
"Well if Harriett fired up her machine to contact me that she must have some slaves who needs saving. Her name is Marla and were to escort her to the northern side of the Capital City, I hope you brought your guns. I got my trusty Springfield M1 Garand and my Mossberg M500 12-gauge. Will there about 2 hours just over this ridge"

I takes Marla out back to the corral and Lightnin' Jack comes a runnin fer us. I smiles and pats his nose real soft like. "Miss Marla, this here's Lightnin' Jack. He's fast as anything and he'll take good care o ya. Le's saddle him up and you get on so's y'all can git cquainted" I pull down the leather saddle and hoist it up over his back then tightens up the cinch under his belly. Then I gets the bridle and slips it over his head and puts the bit in his mouth so it sets jest right. "Don't be shy now, Missy, climbs on up 'ere" I stands and holds onto Jack's reins whilst she throws up her right leg and settles into the saddle then I hands her the reins.

Smiling at the beautiful black stallion that Harriett calls Lightnin' Jack. I reach out and stroke my hand down his soft nose and over his mane. His tail is full and nearly touches the ground behind him. Once Harriett has put on his bridle and saddle I put my left leg in the stirrup and then throw over my right leg and settle into the leather seat. She hands me the reins and I lean forward and whisper in Jack's ear. "Now, you be nice to me and I will be nice to you, Jack". He does a whinny and nods in approval then we take off riding around the corral to get used to each other.
After a few laps I nudge him to go faster and he takes off on a speedy run then does a sudden turn when he reaches the other side of the corral and gallops back to Harriett. I sit up there beaming with pride and happiness to be back in the saddle again. I pat his neck gently with my hand.
"That was just perfect, Jack. Now, all we have to do is wait for Cotter and his men to get here and we can take off on our adventure." I turn to Harriett "I can't thank you enough for all your help, Harriett."

*Walking on down the trail to Harriett's cabin.*
"Harriett it's Odin and Keanu, don't shoot"
*Rounding a tree nearing the corral, cocking my head to the young lady riding Lightnin' Jack*
"Good day ma'am I am Odin and the one back the is Keanu. So I hear we'll be your escort's."

I turns when I hears Mr Cotter's voice with a smile. "Oh now, why would I shoot yea? Come on over here's an' meet Miss Marla." I walks over to Jack and Marla and takes holda his reins so's he stays put "Mr Cotter, this here's Marla. She goin to be needin yer help to git back to her people. You and Mr. Keanu here make sure she gets up North fast as yea can. Y'all can jes turn Lightnin' Jack loose oncet she's found her clan agin." I look from Odin to Keanu then up at Marla. She looks a mite 'fraid but she'll be jes fine.

I dismount the stallion and hold out my right hand to first Odin, then to Keanu. "My name is Marla. Harriett tells me you can get me home. I am hoping to find a friend of mine, name of Ben Lavoa. Ben's the one that recruited me to the Movement and I was just beginning to get a feel of what it's all about when I was captured. Along with a Colonial Officer, a Brigadier General name of J Castorious. We were being transported to a Terran Court when our Raptor landed and he helped me to escape. However, he left me pretty much defenseless as he kept the only firearm we had between us. Do you know anything about where the Camp is for the Resistance Movement? That's where I need to get to I think." I finally realize I am talking non-stop and take a deep breath. I place my hands on my hips and look at them all.
"I guess if we can't find the Camp then I will have to look for work of some kind. I really don't have any family to speak of. Only some distant Aunts & Uncles and I am not close with any of them. My Father and Mother died some years back and I've been on my own for a while now. If we can't find my Camp maybe I'll join up with some Civilian Ship and go explore the Galaxies I guess" I chuckle at the thought of me being on a Ship in Space but then the idea doesn't sound so ridiculous as I think it over.

I push my hands deep in my jeans pockets and look at the ground then back up at Marla with a sly grin. *Oh we'll find your people, Marla. Odin and I have not lost anyone yet and I don't plan on you being the first casualty for us.* I look at Harriett *We'll take her the usual route over the rim there* I point to a high passage on the mountain side to the North. *From there we'll meet up with the rest of the railroaders and band up together. She'll be just fine, Harriett. And we'll make sure Lightnin' Jack makes it back to you safe and sound if I have to ride him back myself. Now if you have a canteen filled with cool water and some jerky we can get going.*

Swinging my right leg over Gullfaxi's neck and the saddle, sliding on down to the ground. Walking over to Harriett spreading my arm's out to give her a big hug.* "Good day Harriett I know you wouldn't shoot me but that does not mean you would shoot at someone else."*Lean's over kissing her cheek, standing back up* "Hello Marla I am Lieutenant General Cotter of the Terran Military but you may call me Odin. I see you meet Harriett, with out her I would not be who I am today. That you all would still be a prisoner of the Gondowans, now you don't need to worry the Terran's and the Terran Military are on your side.
Now Harriett you now me I would not hurt the poor woman, your safe with me ma'am. If need my army is just a radio away."

I smiles as Mr Odin kisses my cheek a little bit. "Oh now, you'da made rank without my helpin ya. You takes Missy here and watch right close over her now, Odin. If'n y'all gets into trouble jes hitch ole' Lightnin' Jack up to the wagon that's stored at the next depot and have Missy get under the false bottom. Make sure the hays' good and high on that wagon so's no one'll go searchin it very fur"
I smiles over at Keanu and then looks back to Odin. "Y'all best be gettin' underway now. Sends me a message on the tele-typer oncest she's found her people or you get her someplace what's safe."

I extend my right hand to him and shake his hand back. "Nice to meet you, Odin, and you too, Keanu" I turn and shade my eyes as I look up at him on his tall horse. "I believe I am pretty safe with both of you to look after me. I would like to locate my friend, Ben Lavoa, if at all possible. He's part of the Rebellion and I haven't seen him since we got separated some time back. I fear he may have met with a tragic ending." I gulp at the thought "If we can't find Ben, maybe we can find the Rebel Camp up North." I try to remain hopeful as I climb up on Lightnin' Jack and settle into the worn saddle.

I pull the reins up and turn Lightnin' Jack around to follow Odin. Keanu takes up his place behind me and we head for the Rebel Camp. "How far is it?" I hope Odin can hear me up ahead but I think he can. The day is looking to be a great day for a ride. The sun has risen and the air is turning a little warmer the longer the sun is up. Birds seem to be singing their hellos to us as we make our way from Harriett's cabin to the open road. The road stretches before us like a ribbon and disappears into the distance.
Thankful the saddle is used and soft as we gallop along at a nice steady pace. I feel the warm air begin to blow my long dark out out and over my back.

I nod to Odin then pull the reins to the right and my horse follows Marla and Odin's as we start off on our long journey. My rifle rests securely against the saddle just in case we may need to defend ourselves.
*The Camp's a good two day ride, Marla. We'll stop and make camp once we reach the safety of the mountains up ahead. Don't worry, we have provisions so you won't go hungry.* I laugh and hope she thinks the meager packs we brought will suffice for food til we can reach her people and she can have a proper meal. *How'd you end up at Harriett's anyhow?* I call up to her.

After riding most of the day the three stop and begin to break camp. Odin and Keanu have tents and some blankets in their packs. Once the tents are set up they start building a campfire and soon it is blazing and warm.
"I'm happy to get a little rest. What did you bring to eat, I'm hungry" I tell them as we sit on the ground near the fire. The mountain air is cool and the stars are shining brightly overhead in the night sky. The horses have been watered and tied up to eat some native grasses near the camp.
I rub my legs and arms to relieve the sore muscles that I feel are developing from riding horseback all day. As I begin to rub my neck Keanu gets up and moves behind me. I turn to look at him with a surprised face as I feel his strong hands begin to massage my neck muscles and my shoulders.
"Oh, that feels good. Thank you" I tell him with a smile. His hands are very large and strong and the firmness of his fingers working the stiffness out of my neck muscles is very relaxing.
