'You all right, Kat?' Ben looked over at her as they pulled up on the outskirts of Colorado Springs.

Kat drew in a deep breath, eyeing the way to her where she'd lived her childhood. The streets were filled with folk. She could see her former best friend, Gracie, walking into the café. She smiled a little, looking over at him and nodded, 'Yeah.'

David and Lizzie rode up beside them, confused as to why they'd stopped. 'What's wrong?' Lizzie looked over at them.

Kat grinned and shrugged, 'Nothing.' She kicked her horse in the side, riding on into town.

The other four quickly nudged their horses after her, riding into the town of Colorado Springs.

She smiled, pulling up at the livery, noticing Robert E and Abe working. She smiled a little, pleased to see one of her former close friends. She dismounted Bandit and held her reins, walking into the livery. She grinned, slightly.

'How's it going there, Abe?'

He looked over at her, confusedly. His eyes widened in shock when he noticed her, 'Katie?'

'Kat,' she corrected, a wide smile came across her face, brightening her features.

He chuckled, hugging her briefly, 'Missed ya.' As they pulled back he looked at her confusedly, 'what're you doin' here?'

Kat just giggled and shrugged, 'Passin' through.'

Abe looked past her at Ben, as he dismounted his horse and walked over. 'Abe,' Ben nodded at him.

Abe nodded back, 'Ben.'

'You working here, now, then?' Kat continued the conversation.

'Yeah, Pa needs the help,' he nodded over at the hospital, on the other side of town, 'you gonna see your Ma?'

She shrugged, 'I dunno. I might just see if I run into her.' She sat down on the pile of hay, 'I'm gonna go to Pa's grave and see if I can see Lauren on her way back from school. She's the only one I really wanna see.'

'Your Ma'd be glad to see ya,' Abe replied, 'she aint been the same since ya left. Always workin'. It's all she does.'

'All she done before I left,' Kat replied, 'only people I missed was you and Gracie, Pa and my little sister. I didn't miss her.'
