Sam Was in one of River Bend Ranch's pasture (the furthest away pasture in fact), picking up Jesse's bit, which she suspected Jake had hidden there in their war, when she saw two boys heading towards her; Jake (she hurriedly shoved the bit in her pocket before he saw what she was doing) and his older brother, Quinn.

"Hi Sam! I've heard about yours and Jakes war, and how you've been allying horses to your cause!" Quinn yelled, "But I've decided to help Jake; it looks like he's greatly outnumbered!" Quinn was laughing now, at his own words; horses? Allies! Ha!

Jake turned to look at her brother, thinking what? Since when was he my ally?

"And I'm going to start the first battle! I'm gonna get you!" Quinn was still laughing, and started jogging towards her.

Sam turned around, and ran as fast as her little legs could carry her. Quinn smiled; she's scared of me! In fact Sam wasn't scared though. If there was going to be a battle, then she would win, so she was running to her best ally. The one she had been spending time with lots, because he was potentially her best ally due to his massive size. The horse she had been explaining strategies to while he followed the small girl around the paddock nodding his great head.

Jake, knowing Sam well, and having spied on her, realised what she was up to.

"Quinn! QUINN!" he shouted, tearing after Quinn, who was tearing after Sam.

Sam was getting tired. She was in the lead, only because she had had a head start. Quinn was gaining on her. Ah ha! Bingo! She thought when the paddock she was heading for came into sight. Puffing hard, she put on another spurt off speed, and crawled under the fence, and Jogged towards Gun Smoke. He lifted his head, and snorted a greeting to her. She patted him, and turned as Quinn climbed over the fence.

"Your cornered now," he laughed

"Quinn!" Jake shouted, reaching the fence, but not coming in. Quinn turned his head to face Jake.

"What? To chicken to battle?" Quinn asked. Sam whispered "Go!" to Gun Smoke, who raised his head, called a stallions challenged which seemed to say 'no one corners my girl!' and charged at Quinn. Quinn turned around, and bolted as the stallion charged towards him.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he yelled, as Gun Smoke, thoroughly enjoying himself, chased him around the paddock. Sam stood laughing.

"I think this means I won the first battle!" she declared. Jake shook his head muttering curses at Quinn and Sam.
