The Wild Mustang

Chapter 5 -A Full Grown Horse

Today I'm a full gown horse. It is now spring. Father has decided to let me explore a bit. Today is also I am almost fully back accept for a little spot of white. I like to go into the timber, and explore there sometimes. There is one thing that I have noticed when I go in there. At the edge of the forest I see a big area with horses in this little pen. When I ran back and told father this, he was struck with fear. He moved the herd to a safer place after that. He also told me not to go into the forest no more. I would usually disappear, when he is not looking so I can look what is happening. I see wild horses and horse with no on there back. I don't what it is, but it looks heavy. Then I hear a snap of a branch. I see something coming out of the brush. It was those humans. I bolt back towards the herd. I hope they didn't see me. When I get back I act like nothing happened. I eat some grass, then another snap. Father looks up and sees humans riding our kind. The. They come to a stop. They look at us with their beaty eyes. Some one raise something. All I hear was scratching from that thing. Soon I see other humans surrounding us. Father tells us to run. We all did. The herd was safe. But for me, I was trapped. I winnie and cry for my herd. I here neighs back, but no one around. Am I really trapped I thought. I start to look around and they through this stuff over my neck. I dodge them cause I don't know what they are. Soon they stop and look at me. Now my speck of white is gone and now I'm full black. They look at me like I'm some kind of funny business. I look at them back. Soon they walk away and then I see my herd again. Father looks at me with disgrace. Then he tells the herd to move along. I have no family now. What will I do. I began to cry. I wish I was never captured.
