Chapter 1: Bushwhack
Ten year old Amelia was riding home from school unaware that she was being watch by a group of men who were on the top of a rocky hill.
One of the men name Jeb Collins turns to the leader of the group Dave Snyder. "There's the Cartwright girl! When do we grab her?" asked Collins. "Once she gets to an open space" informed Snyder his eyes still on the ten year old.
"Why are we doing this?" asked Tom Brooks who was the easily confuse one in the group.
Snyder gives him a death glare. "Like I told you before them Cartwright's are the reason why my wife is dead so now I'm gonna make Ben Cartwright suffer by torturing and killing his worthless snooty slut of a daughter. Then he'll know how it feels to lose someone you love"
He watches Amelia riding by and turns to his men. "Ok just like we planned!" ordered Snyder. The men spread out to their positions without being seen.
As Amelia was riding along she saw someone lying on the side of the dirt road. Thinking that they are hurt Amelia was about to mount off her horse when one of the men in the rocky hill takes his rifle and shoots her in the leg.
After being hit Amelia falls off her saddle leaving a spot of blood on her light brown leather saddle. Sapphire rides away terrified leaving her companion helplessly behind.
Snyder and his men including the one who pretended to be hurt stand over Amelia's unconscious body. One of the men name Kurt Warren grabs the ten year olds arms and drags her body away.
They put her on a buckboard and ride away leaving behind her gun belt and hat.
