Could it Be?
In Rue's vision, she had seen him fall.
She didn't even say goodbye
Or give the girls a reason why
She just had to get to Billy
That was all.
Billy knew he couldn't die.
It still hurt, rider got a lucky shot.
He tried to stay conscious but could not.
The blood oozed out his side.
No Name by him chose to lie.
Ruechari called to him in his mind
She felt the connection starting to fade
'I must reach him' to her Gods she prayed.
Through the desert, she did ride
Billy she must find.
He heard her voice soft and sweet.
Must be his imaginings
A result of what was happening.
Almost made him
Want to stay asleep.
He felt a warmth on his cheek
Rue whispering, "Come back to me."
It was her, his Ruechari.
His eyes fluttered open
But he still felt weak.
"If this is a dream I don't want to wake."
Billy said to Rue.
She wasn't sure what to do
How to get him to cooperate?
"Oh, for heaven's sake!"
She whistled to Sixstar
He's lost too much blood from his side.
He's no good to ride.
Sixstar grabbed him by his shirt
Dragged him not too far.
Now on No Name's back
The horse gently rose.
Rue healed the wound closed.
That should buy her some time
Billy's body went slack.
