An idea for a short story...

It's a western. A cowboy is really racist toward natives, but then goes on a vision quest and changes completely.

I just can't think of how to get him there, taking the vision quest.

Sounds cool. How about a woman he fancies calms him or even leaders extending food and shelter during a troubling time. Both could lead to them encouraging a vision quest.

It is 1881 and a cowboy delivers some beef to Fort Apache.


As he was there that night, a medicine man/chief was performing outside the fort what some would later claim was the first ghost dance. The medicine man/chief's name is Nakaidoklinni. He was from Cibique.

As the medicine man/chief talked, the cowboy saw the huge silver medal around his neck. After asking others about it, it turned out to be a Peace Metal that President Grant gave him when he was a teenager.

Later, the next day, Nakaidoklinni went back to Cibique.

That day, the cowboy spoke to the Apache Indians Scouts about what happened that night. The Scouts invited him to a special meeting they were having. At the meeting, special medicine was given out and each person took a spot that was some distance from everybody else. At first, nothing happened. But then, the medicine started to take effect.

The journey began..............
