Some small relief that Old Man Woodson found his son made a better punching bag than his wife. [color=chocolate]Summer, 1851 - Heading West[/color] Thirteen year old Jonah Hex is growing wild and Woodson takes him off West to turn him in to a proper man. Teach him roping, hunting, riding, all manner of manly pursuits. Sumbitch sells him in to slavery, his idea, to the Mescalero Apache in exchange for safe passage through New Mexico. Apache work him constant until he proved his worth by saving the Chieftain from a wily puma ambush. Jonah is made a full-fledged member of the tribe and adopted by Chieftain but sure enough the Chieftain's blood son, Noh-Tante, grows resentful of his new brother. Both men had their eye on a young woman in the tribe, White Fawn, and it all came to a head during their manhood rite. [color=chocolate]Spring, 1854 - New Mexico[/color] Sixteen years old and undergoing the manhood ritual with Noh-Tante that would allow each to take a wife, he is betrayed by his brother while they rustle horses from an enemy tribe, the Kiowa, and is left for dead. Dead he would have been if a Cavalry patrol hadn't happened along. Though the Cavalry mistook him for one of their own they ended up shooting him in the gut and leaving him for dead, once again, when he tried to stop their slaughter of the entire Kiowa tribe. By the time he had been rescued by an old trapper and returned to his tribe's camp they were long gone and he was alone once more.
