[QUOTE="silentspace, post: 2133822, member: 14316"] The priest watched the girl fall. He spurred Hammer forward and dropped down by her side. He put a finger on her neck, checking for a pulse. Next he searched her, looking for wounds, and found none. At least none of the lethal sort. In the untamed West, a man could get into trouble looking over a girl like the Priest was doing. You never knew when a jealous husband or boyfriend, brother or suitor would show up. Not that the Priest worried much about that kind of thing. Still, what he was doing could be looked at as a little to presumptuous. Surely the girl had family around to take care of her. But there weren't any. Then a horse loped around the corner towards them. Right friendly horse, it must be hers. Hammer took a few steps back, politely making way for it. There was nothing else to do about it. The priest couldn't leave her here in the street. He picked up the girl and carried her. Walking down the street he looked for a doctor. Or a lawman. Or any sign of life in this forsaken town.
