McLain leveled both Dragoons and shot the Indian out of his saddle. He saw the slugs blow quills from the man’s breastplate. Then the arc of scarlet that pulsed from his back. The riderless mustang thundered past him, and he swung to charge down the second warrior. The Dragoons bucked in his hands and the Indian let go the bow as the lead balls ploughed through his windpipe. One shot severed the carotid artery, the opened channel sending a great, thick jet of bright red spraying back on the wind rush. The second broke the neck, shattering the delicate linkages of the spine so that the head lolled abruptly sideways, bouncing against the shoulder as the Comanche went past. The brain’s control of the body ended, and the warrior seemed suddenly to deflate. McLain swung the stallion around to face the last Indian.By William S.
