As Kory reaches the edge of the forest the police. As he rides towards New York a maiden is standing in the middle of the dirt path. "hey.......hey please can I catch a ride please" As Kory rides up to her when she realizes who Kory was she grabbed at her shotgun next to her. "wow wow....I'll help you just put the gun down" as she loosens her grip she looks him up and down. "But arn't you an outlaw" he shrugs. "eh kinda...but that's just that, but who are you" she thinks for a second. "well Kory the reaper, my name is Jane" he looked at her confused. she huffs as she grabs for a piece of paper from her bag showing a wanted poster for Kory. "well shit, so where do you want to go" she climbs on the back of the horse. "where going to New York" he nods as he starts to ride to the up and coming town of New York.

As they draw closer they reach a small town with towns people walking around going through the daily lives with there small wooden houses and farms lining the dirt path. "isn't this a nice little town" Jane says  in a cheerful voice. "yeah a town that will be attacked because Billy thought that it was to cheerful" she looks at him concerned. "wh....what do you mean" he hops off the horse. "well billy ins't known for....caring for others not in his gang of misfits" he takes his rifle off the side of the horse and put it around his back before helping Jane down. "but he still is a human right he has feelings for others doesn't he" as they walk into the town he turns into a shop as he does this Jane takes a step back. "what are you doing?" Kory pulls out some cash as he buys some rounds for a lever action rifle and some shotgun rounds. "thank you and come again" Kory nods as he hands the shotgun rounds to Jane. "If your going to be living on your own your going to need some ammo" she hesitates before grabbing the rounds. "why are you being nice to me?" he shrugs as they walk back to the horse and bring it into a stable. "Just because you've only got two shells on you and there already in that gun, all it means is just be careful" she nods as she pockets the rounds into her bag. "So whats bringing you to New York?" he keeps walking around the town. "well my goal is to kill billy the kid" she starts to chuckle a bit. "you, kill billy Sheriff Garret can hardly see the guy, what makes you think you can kill him?" he gives her a stern look as he continues to walk towards a building. "wait your serious" he nods as he walks into the saloon Jane stays at the door. "Kory talk to me" he sticks his head out the door. "come on inside trust me for a second okay, I'll tell you all you want to know" she huffs as she steps in as she does this all the people in the saloon crane there neck.
