No ones pov

The loud sound of people eating in the hotel fills the main room due to no one else there.

Table order

                  Billy
Goodnight       Faraday
Alice                Vasques
Red Chisolm
            Horne

Alice quietly eat her food with still using manners only because it is the polite thing to do when people give you food. Noticing many people stare at them Faraday breaks the silence.

"Like being in one of them damn zoos."

"Fame is a sarcophagus." Alice and Billy smirk at Goodnight knowing Faraday wont understand that.

"You read those in a book, or you just make 'em up as you go?" Faraday pauses from eating to get that question out towards Goodnight.

"I'll try to use one-syllable words from now on." Alice slightly chokes on her food trying not to laugh. Coughing a little trying to breath but still covering her mouth with a napkin, Red notices she is still smiling but choking. Gently patting her back she begins to breath again, she glances over to look at him nodding in appreciation. He nods back and looks back at his plate in his right hand in slight disgust.

"What is the problem?" Giving it a small smell he tosses it onto the table in front of him.

"White people's food is for dogs." Red states while looking at Horne, Alice just shakes her head and continues to eat her ham.

"What'd he say?" Horne glances towards Alice hearing her speak his language a few moments ago then looks towards Chisolm when he saw she was eating.

"He asked that you kindly stop staring at his hairline." Alice and Goodnight give each other a small smirk knowing thats not what he said but continue eating none the less.

"I will. As long as he stops licking his lips over mine, hmm?" A few of the guys chuckle while silence begins to take back over.

After a few minutes pass and Alice finished her meal. Standing up slowly she catches the attention of everyone.

"I think I am going to retire for the evening, good night gentleman." Leaving her plate she begins to walk out the doors with most of them saying 'goodnight Alice' or 'night.'

Getting outside she goes to wear she tied her horse and taking the reins begins to walk towards the burnt church.

Inside the hotel a few of them wonder why she left since they all have a room or bunking with another in this hotel. 

"Why did she leave? Isn't she staying here?" Faraday questions looking towards Goodnight and Billy noticing they already knew her.  They both give each other a small glance but both shrug their shoulders.

"She tends not to stay in town often, prefers outside over inside. You will get use to it." Red begins to ponder over what goodnight stated about Alice.

'She is a strange women. She knows about his culture and language along with she has white man's weapons along with Indians weapons.'
