Session 1313: Ballad of Cowboy Josh

"Jeez, what's with this guy?" Jet said, scratching his bald head with his robotic arm.

"Yeah, first he's standing there looking stupid, and then he screams and just keels over." Faye exclaimed, throwing her hands up in exasperation. "I wonder who he is and what he's doing here. Wherever here is."

"Ed will look for clues!" the kid volunteered. She set the Welsh Corgi down and was about to run over to Josh when Spike (the guy with the blue- green hair) stopped her. "Wait up, kiddo. This could be dangerous. Better let a professional handle it."

"Ed is so professional." Ed sulked.

"Not saying you're not, kiddo." Jet said. "But that weird guy could have anything on him - needles, explosives..."

Spike knelt down next to Josh and stripped his pockets clean in less than three seconds. "Let's see what we've got here... a ham sandwich, some change in a strange currency... a pack of odd playing cards made by a company called Wizards of the Coast... two quail's eggs... an umbrella... and an electric cattleprod engraved with the words Die Scott Die. Weird."

"Well, none of that is very helpful." Faye said. "Just what are we going to do with this guy?"

1. The five of them decide to take Josh along.
2. They decide to leave Josh behind instead.
