Three days have passed. Arthur does not stop helping Dutch with his so-called plans, and helps Charles with an Indian tribe not far from here.

Arthur and Charles especially helped a young man named Eagle Flies from this tribe, I also had the opportunity to meet these people.

And instantly some women have seen in my appearance that I am pregnant, they gave me plants to boil, advisers, and told me what I can eat and not eat. They are very nice people.

But right now, I'm worried about Arthur, he gets tired too much and starts coughing again. He make too much effort. I doubt Dutch, John, Sadie, Charles, Abigail, everyone else seems to be aware of the situation.For me, Dutch goes crazy.

Returning from the hunt, Micah's "friends" came to the camp,I am not reassured, and I think it will not please Arthur.

I sit down on a crate near the Dutch tent and pretend to be busy.Arthur arrives at this moment.

- So why are these two still here? Asked Arthur to Dutch.

- Old pal's of Micah.

- They're getting real comfortable. I respond.

- We need guns for what's coming. Cleet and Joe know how to fight... It's lucky I bumped into 'em. Said Micah.

- What is going on, Dutch? What is happening to us? What happening to you? Said Arthur firmly.

- You show him some respect. Said Micah angry, heading towards him.

- Excuse me? Said Arthur

 Ifeels tension in the air and stands up instinctively, just in case ....

- Mr. Van Der Linde! Mr. Morgan! Charles! They tried to kill my people for oil. For oil!A voice resonates towards us.

Arthur turns around and everyone looks in the same direction.It's Eagle Flies heading towards us.He is accompanied by other people from his tribe.

- Today we ride once more. Ride with me, ride with us. Ride with us against the factory.

- I love you courage, son. It is a thing of great beauty. Sais Dutch, walking towards him.

- Stop! Everyone stop! Shouted Eagle Flies' father who came to us.

He gets off his horse and approaches his son.He tries to make him change his mind. He does not want to lose his last son. But Eagle Flies does not listen, and decides to go to the end of his choice. Rains Fallscome to us and beg us to do something to save his son. He especially begs Arthur to do something. Looking at the face of Dutch, I knew it would not please him.

- I'll see what I can do. Said Arthur tu Rains Falls.

He turns to Charles.

- Charles? He ask.Charles nods to say he's coming.

He turns his gaze to me, and I also nod my head to say that I'm coming too.

- Who else will come with me? Shouted Arthur.

- Oh, I'll ride, Arthur. Who knows what other secrets I'll learn about. Who else? Said Dutch.

I get on my horse and look for a moment Arthur who is right in front of me.Sadie, John, Javier and Bill are coming with us.The path is not too long, but I begin to feel the weakness of my pregnancy slowly. I am more often tired even if I sleep all night, I still want to sleep.

Of course, nobody is aware of my pregnancy. And I think it's better like that, for now.We cross the path of one of the guys from Eagle Flies. He seems to be seriously injured.He tells us to continue to the factory. What we do immediately. Arriving near the factory, I notice black smoke, I immediately saw the factory on fire. It's a massacre.
