Midnight stallion

Chapter 3

After a long boring day at school I walked out of class and went to my locker to grab my homework.

I put my homework into my bag and I left the school and walked out into the parking lot and I waited for the bus to come.

As I was standing by the bus stop someone grabbed my arm and it scared me so bad that I screamed. I turned around and I saw Erica, she was standing there holding her math book and a book titled "The truth about forever" by Sarah dessen.

What's up Erica said? Nothing I replied. I love Sarah dessen's books I said. Erica told me that she was working on a novel study in English class and that was the book that they were studying.

After me and Erica talked we heard the bus pull up in front of us. We waited until all the other students got on the bus then Erica and I got onto the bus last.

When we got on the bus Erica and I sat down together in a seat right by the back of the bus. When we sat down I asked Erica what classes she had that day?

Erica said that first she had English then math after that she had science then biology. Erica said that she had a very boring day.

Then Erica asked me what classes I had today? I told her that first I had math then English then biology after that I told her that I had science.

After Erica and I stopped talking we were about 10 minutes away from my house, so I pulled and some of my books and I started to study for my math test next week.

After what felt like an hour studying I put my books back in my bag and I looked out the school bus window to see that we were turning onto my street. The street sign read prince street.

My family and I have lived on prince street for about 5 years. Prince street was just outside of the town blueheel.

Blueheel was a small town with lots to do like bowling and swimming, we also had a small gym at the other side of town. The only thing bad about blueheel was the stupid name, but other than that the town was a nice quiet place to live.

As the bus driver pulled up to my house I looked out the window and I saw that both of my parents were home. Every day I got out of school at 3 and I was usually home by 3:45, my parents both worked until 4 but sometimes they got off early like today.

When the bus came to a stop both Erica and I grabbed our bags and got off the bus. After we got off the bus we both walked up my driveway and walked over to my porch.

When we went inside Erica and I both said hi to my parents. My mom said that dinner would be at 5:30, she said that we were eating homemade soup. As Erica and I headed upstairs I asked her if she wanted something to eat or drink? She said no thanks.

When we got upstairs we both threw our bags on my bedroom floor. Then we sat on my bed. I asked her if she had any ideas of how to get the stallion into the paddock?

Erica said that we could try to lead the horse in the paddock by giving him some apples. I told Erica that I thought that was a good idea.

So after that Erica and I went downstairs and we told my parents that we were going to try and find the stallion. When we went outside I went into the barn and I let both of my horses out into the yard.

After that I quickly fed my horses and gave them water. Then I grabbed some apples out of the the feed room in the barn and Erica and I walked out to behind the shed.

I saw that the bucket of water that I left there last night was almost empty. So I asked Erica if she could go in the barn and fill it up. She grabbed the bucket then headed to the barn to fill it up.

When Erica got back she set the bucket back to where it was before. Then Erica and I both walked out into the middle of the field and we both saw it, there was a black stallion standing there.

When Erica and I got closer to him I saw his face and I knew that it was the stallion that I had seen last night. I asked Erica to stand back and then I grabbed an apple and I walked over to the stallion but he took off limping.

I left him some apples over by the water bucket. Erica and I tried for almost 3 hours to get him into the paddock.

Finally at 6:30 Erica and I gave up. So we went inside the house and we ate dinner an hour late. Then I called the vet and I told him that we couldn't get the stallion into the paddock.

I told the vet that I was going to try to build up trust with the stallion and then I would call him back in the next week so that the vet could come over and look at the stallions leg.

After I talked to doctor Charles I told my parents that we couldn't get the stallion into the paddock, also I told them that I was going to try to build up trust with the stallion in the next few days. My parents thought that was a very good Idea. _________________________________________________________________________________I am going to update my book once every Wednesday.
