Sully shook his head at Brian wanting to kill a racoon, explaining to the boy that the only thing they would hunt was deer, and to be more specific, a deer.

He listened to Brian's declaration of no need of education with a frown. "Your Ma is a smart woman, yes, and she has had lots of schooling, that makes her a fine doctor despite what many folks say. And Brian, you will need to have schooling too. You might not want to be a doctor, but you will need it. The Cheyenne are wise people, but even they have started to learn how to read and write the white men's language." He explained the boy, knowing that that was another battle Michaela would have to fight, and having a feeling he would have to fight it just along her.

Before Brian could answer to that, an eagle's cry took Sully's attention. He looked up at the majestic bird, letting go of Brian's hand as he watched it fly by. It was only a couple of minutes, and when he looked down at where Brian should have been, his heart did a summersault at the missing boy.
"Brian?!" he called, noticing Wolf was standing on two paws before one of the tallest trees around, whining and trying to climb himself up. He dashed to the tree just in time to hear Brian's call, and then, as if time was pausing, he saw Brian leap from one of the tallest branches and plunge into the ground.

On pure instinct, he was there to catch the boy, falling to the ground due to the force of impact. For a minute or two, all he could do was hug the boy to himself; calm in the knowledge that the boy was safe in his arms, but just as calmness had taken over him, soon, anger started boiling in him.

Standing, he looked at the beaming cherubic face before him. "How many times have I told you not to climb that high, Brian?!" He scolded the child, holding him by his arms. "You know better than to do such a dangerous thing, young man!"

Colleen was happy that her Ma had approved of the fabric she had chosen. It was beautiful, and it was just what she had wanted for months now.

However, all of that came tumbling down when she heard the price, she knew by the doctor's reaction that her wish would be denied.

"But...Ma...I have some savings that could help...and I could work for you at the clinic and maybe find some other way to earn some of the money!" She stated, though all she had saved was 15 cents she had been keeping to buy some candy or other trinkets.

She knew, though, that ten dollars was way more than anything she had ever had.
