Cheyenne Warrior As war is brewing between the Union and the Confederacy, Matthew and
Rebecca are travelling west to start a new life in Oregon. Along the
way, they stop at a remote trading post, where they meet up with some
Cheyenne Indians. Though the Cheyenne are friendly toward the pioneers,
Matthew doesn't like them and warns a group of hunters that hostile
Indians are preparing for an attack. In the confrontation that results,
only Rebecca and a single wounded Cheyenne warrior named Hawk are left
alive. As the winter closes in, and the two are forced to rely on each
other for survival, they begin to understand and even feel affection for
each other.
