He rode on BurningRod's back up and down the hills. The air was fresh, fresher than it had ever felt before. The smell of fresh flowers covered the fields.

They rode easily for two days without stopping, except for sleeping. The majestic winged horse never seemed to grow tried of moving forward, and if he ever did, he showed no signs of it.

It had been about three or four weeks since the begging of his journey.

We'll be home soon, He thought to himself.

They went up one last hill in the field. At the top, Jackson thank the man in his head again. He hadn't lied.

Ahead of them, there was a forest. The forest had a nice bike trail labeled-

The Nature Path

Jackson let out a small laugh of joy. He'd made it. They'd made it.

He patted the pegasus's neck.

"Good boy BurningRod." He reach down and hugged him. "Thank you, thank you, thank you."

He nudged the horse on. They were going home.

The stallion took snorted. He stopped walking. Everything went silent. He didn't move or twitch. Instead the horse stared behind him. His nostrils were wide. His ears perked up and his eyes shot with fear.

"BURNINGROD!" Jackson called for him just like the time before, and was covered by a feathered wing as fire surrounded them once more.
