Maverick (the fake one) says I’m leaving now and backs out of the back door to the bar.  A bunch of the locals rise from the tables and say you should let him go.  Thaddeus tosses a slumber potion and two of the townsfolk fall.  He and Jimmy run out after Maverick.  Meanwhile Magnus, the blacksmith, and the others wrestle with the remaining townsfolk.  They seem to be not themselves, and several other townsfolk are trying to pull them back.

While the fight goes on in the bar, Jimmy and Thaddeus run down the alley after Maverick.  He obviously mounted a horse and rode off.  We regroup and Lucille casts mind rider on one of Mavericks possession.  Meanwhile Thaddeus goes back and grabs our horses from the Triple Tap.  He is headed east out of town, so we follow.  One the way we come up with new bar branding, complete with animal themed symbols.  Not to mention the loincloth waiter uniforms. (Thats what you get for missing a session Brad and Cary)

Jimmy and Robert Ford keep tracking the horse out of town.  We are at least 10min behind him.  We notice that he jumped of the horse but the horse kept going.  We stop and Thaddeus shouts we know you are here, come out and we will not kill you.  He is floating in the trees above us and says You stupid f***ckers.

He gets a Joker (he really is Maverick) and shoots Thaddeus, the blacksmith, and Grey Owl, who is seriously wounded and falls off the horse.  Magnus blasts him with a bolt.  Lucille casts a spell but nothing happens.  Glen shoots and misses.  Thaddeus hits him with another slumber potion and he falls to the ground.  Jimmy runs back and tries to heal Grey Owl.  He succeeds (thank you Great Spirit of bennies).  

Jimmy moves toward Mavrick’s unconscious body.  Magnus runs back to Grey Owl and heals him of one wound.  The blacksmith closes on his body, and Thaddeus also runs back and heals Grey Owl.  The blacksmith asks Lucille what to do, and she says she thinks she could do it but it would take half a day.

Suddenly the man in black rides up behind us. Thaddeus cries out a warning.  Robert finishes tying up Mavericks body.  The man in black shoots Magnus.  Thaddeus throws a glue bomb which traps the man in black so he can’t move.  Jimmy rides up and hits him with two thrown knives and wounds him.  (Cary,Matt has put his stink all over your pink dice)

The man in black breaks free somewhat but Jimmy rides up and tomahawks him for serious damage.  Thaddeus blasts the man in black with a scattergun, ending him.    Jimmy recovers his knife and gun.  The gun feels like it is drawing heat out of Jimmy’s hand, and the knife feels like it has murderous intent.  Jimmy also uncovers his face and sees that he is a normal guy but we don’t recognize him.  His clothes are completely black, as is his horse.  His horse also has glowing red eyes, but gets spooked and runs off.

We head back to town with Mavericks body and the Man in Blacks corpse.  We get back around midnight and Lucille starts the ritual to banish the spirit and put Maverick back in his body.  By dawn she is getting really loud and sweaty, and soon after Maverick wakes up.  We realize that Edward O’Kelly is the spirit that was inhabiting Maverick.  Magnus casts a barrier to try and contain it, but he floats throw but we see his spirit dissipate.  Maverick feels himself float out of his hosts body, but does not end up back in his own.  In the darkness he hears the voice of his manitou offering to gamble his life, but Maverick refuses and says he puts his trust in his friends.  Lucille rests and tries again.  Maverick hears the voice again and agrees to give him a favor in order to help Lucille.  She is able to put his spirit back in his body.  Maverick wakes up, but owes a favor to the manitou.

Maverick gets the knife and gun from the Man in Black.  The gun feels cold to him as well.  <scene>
