PrinceWatercress plays The Lone Ranger - Part 8 of 12

When he head to Abilene to visit the lovely Clara, we find out that she has been kidnapped. How far will we have to go to get her back?

First | Previous | Next | End

Our love Clara lives in nearby Abilene, according to Tonto. Let's pay her a visit.

The town just past the bridge is Abilene. East of the train station is the gunshop, while north of the gunshop is the doctor.

One of the men in the houses in the far south tells you that Clara lives on the north side of town. Watch out for enemies along the way. When you head to her house, which has three windows, you'll find out she is gone when you look around and then leave. Tonto will find a note from Butch Cavendish telling you to stop chasing him if Clara's life is to be saved. He just made things personal.

There is a saloon here, but it is not very useful (although you can find out Clara lives in the north here, too).

Go back to the NPC who told you where Clara lived. He will tell you there is an informant at Pike's Peak. (You'll also probably find that out in the saloon, too.)

Pike's Peak is the town to the immediate northeast. Watch out for enemies, as some of them are pretty fast. There is a building with some covered-up double doors, and if you talk to the guy in purple on the right, he will tell you to ask the mine office for directions to the mine.

Head back to Abilene and head to the south. There is a building saying "OFFICE" above the doors. This is the one you want to enter. By talking to the man there, he will tell you that the mine is located in the northern mountain.

Go north and east of Pike's Peak to the flashing star icon. The enemies will throw shurikens, and you'll have to jump over them to avoid them. Also, there are falling stalactites in places, and you'll need to watch out for them. There are also enemies that run at you with swords and also throw firebombs. You'll even need to jump on a moving platform or two to get around, or else you'll land in the same area at the bottom of the mine over and over.

The water slows you down, so jump through it as much as you can.

For the boss, equip the silver bullets, then get him off the ceiling before getting more aggressive with the silver bullets once he hits the ground. Once you beat this guy, you'll find out that Clara is in their hideout.

The hideout will be just east of Abilene and marked by a star icon. Heal up and stock up before going over there, just in case.

Once again,  you'll have to jump on moving platforms and avoid the shurikens thrown by the enemies here. The spiked crushers will come down when you get close; pass by when they come back up. Also, take out the guys climbing the ceilings - and especially the walls - from a distance, as the guys on the wall throw three shurikens at once.

The boss here will use some sort of ninjitsu technique to send clones of himself at you. Thankfully, the silver bullets will take care of him and his clones. Be sure to jump the shurikens as you keep firing at the boss. When you defeat the boss, you'll find out that Clara has been taken to San Jacinto.

You'll soon see a horse-drawn carriage heading to the east. Head east after it. As you do this, you'll be followed by the enemy, who will catch up with you. This will lead to not one but (probably) two first-person shooting segments on horseback, which are the same as they ever were and hopefully shouldn't be any trouble. Unless you're holding Right as soon as you get back on the overworld map, you'll be facing them a second time. Once you make it to San Jacinto on the map, you won't be chased anymore. Use this as an opportunity to go back to Abilene in order to stock up and heal up.
