Disclaimer: I do not own anything from the television show The Young Riders.

A/N: So I'm a big fan of the show, and have had this story in my head ever since I purchased Season One on DVD. I thought it was high time I got this one out in the open. I'll warn those of you who may have read my other stuff that this character may be similar to others.

Anway, let me know what you think of this brief introduction. I'll probably keep writing, but a little encouragement never hurts. :)


Barely Conscious

The world around her blurred as her vision faded in and out. Struggling to keep her wits about her, she slid off her horse. When her feet hit the ground, her legs gave way and she crumpled to the ground. Barely conscious, she felt the ground move with the stampede of feet from those who witnessed her fall, but the sound of their voices seemed strangely distant. After a moment, she felt a hand slide under her head and lift it gingerly off the ground; one voice was suddenly thrust into her realm of consciousness, asking what had happened and if she was alright. Slowly, she pulled her eyelids open to see the man whose voice was now sinking away. Mustering all the energy she had left and knowing that she had precious seconds left, she whispered weakly through her dry, parched lips.

"Find…the Kid."
