"Get those cows moving," a man orders as he whips his rope at the ankles of the cattle. His straw hat tip on his silver hair as sweat glisten on his tan vest. The sun was setting as they made their way through jerk. "We do not need a rustler to come by, neither do we need a pogonip to take our breath! We lost our last herd from Texas, we do not need a repeat."

"Yes, sir," all the men yips as they ride by the cattle.

"Here comes our vaquera," one of the men whistle as the girl ride tall and proudly with a bull beside her. His black hide shines in the evening night against the tan hide of her horse. Her olive green eyes harden at their comments."Always trying to out do us. Can't believe boss hired her."

"Hey Cow Boss, we got stranger among our midst," the girl rides up to the man ordering

The man glances at her before turning to the bull beside her. His eyes widen as he pulls on his rein to a stop. He pales as the bull huffs and nudges the rope around his head. His red eyes at the man as it stomps the ground.

"Aldo, that is not a normal cattle." Cow Boss watches as the girl glances at the bull. The other riders watch with fear.

"Than why was he in the herd?" Albo glance at the bull with surprise.

"Quickly, let him lost. He'll bring bad luck!" Cow Boss orders as he slowly trots away from her.

"Yessir," Albo quickly jumps off her horse. She quickly pulls out her pocket knife from its sleeve from her belt. Grabbing the rope around the bull's muzzle, she smoothly cuts the rope. Jumping back as he shook his head loose from the rope. Taking her lasso from her hip, she waves it around to scare the bull away. "Get out of here!"

The men whisper among themselves before riding ahead to leaving her behind.

"Vaquera can handle this on her own," a man whistle as the others whistle.

"A girl should even be out here with all these men," another on tease harshly.

"What if she is really he?" Another mutters making the others whoop with laughter.

"That's why she has a boy's name," the youngest one hollers as they ride by the cattle through the rough country.

Albo clenches her fist as she stood up straight, Cow Boss glared at his men before turning back to Albo. Her eyes seem to blaze angrily as her breath seem to flutter in the cold air. The bull's eyes seem to glow as he stomps the dirty as he slowly makes his way to her side. His form seems to change slowly into a giant black bear. His claws glisten in the evening sun as he looks down at Albo. She looks up at him as he places his head on his shoulder. Glancing at Cow Boss before pointing at the men. The bear roars as it stomps towards them angrily.

"Albo, what is the meaning of this!" Cow Boss quickly jumps off his horse to grab her wrist. He caught the glimpse of her eyes to notice they were glowing.

"Our Cowman hired me to capture the rustlers that are responsible for stealing his last herd," Albo smiles sadly at the man. "You, Johnny, had cotton pulled over your eyes to not notice your men were the ones taking the cattle to a jigger trying to run my boss out of business."

Johnny just stood there as he watches his fellow workers were killed. He cried silently as he remembers all the memories he had made with his men. He watches as the bear returns slowly, nuzzling Albo.

"This is goodbye," Albo nods at the bear as he turns into a black mustang. Climbing up, she tips her hat at Johnny. "The cattle will stay right here since some of my riders are watching over them."

"What are you?" Johnny stares up at her in fear.

Albo grins widely as she covers her mouth with a bandana. The sun sets, as a small flame starts on the mustang's tail. He gasps as the flame eat the horse's body and ALbo's body as they stood there in flames. Her skin melted off, as her olive green eyes blaze like a flame as a laughter fills the night sky.

"I'm just a ghost rider, and if you don't change your way," Albo points at Johnny's heart. "You'll become just like me."

Johnny faints as she yips away fast. Leaving small fires as she gallops to the horizon.


"Evening Albu," Alfred scratches the between the black mustang's eyes. He smiles as his head pushed lightly up as the horse nuzzle his neck. "Albo hasn't come to visit you lately has she?"

He looks towards the abandoned house across from the burned down barn. He holds out a carrot and rubs Albu's neck, humming a small tune. He watches as the sun begins to set as he sighs heavily.

"Pa, what are you doing out here so late?" Dallas walks over with a Blue Lacy following his footsteps. "Heel Austin."

"Austin finally shapes shift, huh," Alfred smiles at his son. "Have you seen your sister lately?"

"It's a full moon tonight," Dallas watches as Albu stomps the ground as he huffs angrily."She is still afraid of the person she used to be. All of those people..."

"Dallas," Alfred hiss at his son as he grabs his shirt roughly. "She was doing what her deal says. It was to keep her alive since she was original The Comanche empire that was supposed to have been dissolved. I should have stopped her."

"It's not your fault pa," a quiet voice comments as Dallas and Alfred watch a thin girl walk around the burnt down barn.

"Albo," Alfred releases Dallas as he gathers her in his arm. He combs her long oak brown hair as he looks over her. "Why haven't you call me or any of your siblings. We were worried about you."

"I-I'm sorry pa," Albo winces in pain. "I been trying to found a way to break my deal, b-but.."

"Shush, Albo," Dallas opens the gate as Albu trots over to them. His mane and tail were on fire as he left fire hoofprints behind him.

"Albuquerque," Albo touches his nose as her hand blaze. She winced slightly as Alfred places a kiss on her forehead.

"It's time to go be a hero," Alfred smiles down at her. "Go be a Ghost Rider."

Albo looks at him before glancing at her brother who also nod in agreement. She slowly stands up against Albu with their help. She smiles at them as she climbs onto Albu's back. She flames on and glanced towards the horizon. Alfred and Dallas watch as two other riders trot towards them. One had a green flame and the other was yellow.

"Carlito...Tad." Alfred nods at the other Riders.

"Uncle," The green one tips their hat as the other nods at Dallas. They turn to Albo and hold out their hands to the horizon.

Albo turns to Alfred and Dallas as she pats Albu's neck. She smiles as She turns to the others. She kicks Albu in the hips as her teeth click. They watch as all three gallop in full force to the sky.

"Ghost Raiders in the sky," Alfred smiles as Dallas hung his arm around his neck.


A/N: IF you can guess who Albo is, then you get to choose the state and the song.
