"Uncle?" Spitfire asks in a soft tone.

Buddy looks at him curiously, "Yes?"

"Am I adopted?" Spitfire says earnestly, he was told that he was adopted, and heard the stories about his mother millions of times, but this whole thing made Spitfire wonder what the real story was,

Buddy was nervous about answering Spitfire back but did momentarily.

"Y-Yes, you are Adopted, Spitfire," Buddy says manifestly, "Your father found you on the bank of a lake,"

Spitfire shook his head, "I know the story, Uncle, but... explain the nose then." Spitfire says, remembering back to the women in the frame in the hall.

"My mom?" Buddy asked, Spitfire, nodded, "Oh... well, a lot of people have a nose like yours, and mine.. and my mothers, it's very common,

I suppose."

Spitfire listened, "Alright... I'm sure you are right." he says with a sigh.

Buddy smiles, grabbing another side of the sandwich taking a bite,

"S-Scott?" Spitfire says, shocked, setting up from laying back on the blanket.

"Spitfire, " Scott tipped his Cowboy hat,

a young girl finally found her way next to Scott,

she was also riding a horse.

Buddy glances to Spitfire, then back to Scott, answering "Oh... no, sorry... we're just fine, we were just having some dinner, and catching up on all the famous talk around here."

Scott nods, "Good... well, we better get going, hey..."

He says before grasping the saddle horn and riding away,

the girl stayed quiet, staring towards Spitfire, and He glared back coldly,

"Spit... it's been a while... good seeing you again."

Spitfire answers softly, "Yes, Scott... good seeing you too,"

Scott tips his hat again, climbing back onto his Palomino Horse Biscuit.

Scott was a tall young man, standing at 6'3,

so Biscuit the Horse was even larger,

with a muscular chest and hindquarters,
