Running To The Wild - ON HOLD!!!

♡ Chapter 2 : Gone Wild ♡

"I cleared it. I ACTUALLY CLEARED IT!!! WOOHOO!!! WILD HERE I COME!!!" I exclaimed with joy. "Sydney are you MAD!!! You could've killed yourself!!! You barely made that fence!!!" said April. "Yes but I didn't kill myself and I DID make it." I said in a very cheeky tone. "Uh...Ma'am we have a problem. Your horse, Sydney has jumped the fence" one of the grooms said in a Texas voice through the phone. You could her the owner shouting through the phone : " Well, GET HER BACK!!! IF SHE GETS AWAY I WILL HOLD YOU PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE!!! SHE IS MY BEST JUMPER AND IF YOU DONT GET HER BACK RIGHT NOW, YOUR FIRED!!!" "Run Sydney. RUN!!! Come back soon. Now go. GO!!!" April whinned to me. "SYDNEY!!! SYDNEY WAIT!!!" it was my mother, Sparkle. "Stay safe out there, OK??? You come back safely. I'll miss you my baby." My mother and I started to cry and I kissed her a goodbye. "Rascal...keep Riddle safe and tell him his big sister will be back soon" I cried and told Rascal. "Don't worry. Riddle will be in good hooves. Now RUN!!! The grooms have come with the tranquilizer. RUN!!!" Rascal warned me. I sobbed and said to all my friends and my mother : "Goodbye guys. I...um...I will come back soon. Take care of my little brother and tell Chappy I'm sorry. Goodbye!!!" and with that I galloped away I heard my friends and mother's goodbyes along with the shots that rang through the air from the tranquilizer darts. I galloped as fast as I could and went up the mountain. To say my final goodbye, I got to the top of the mountain and reared in the sunset with a loud whinny.

"That mare...she got some crazy blood in her..." said the Texas groom. Sparkle over heard the groom and started galloping towards the groom, ears flat back and teeth bared. Sparkle barged and bit the groom on his right shoulder and he fell down. Sparkle made a U-turn and made sure she was in front of the groom. He tried to get up and run but Sparkle reared up on her hind legs and gave the groom a good blow to the right shoulder again. Satisfied, Sparkle gave a snort of satisfaction and trotted off. One of the other grooms saw what happened and ran towards the groom on the ground. He was rushed to hospital immediately.

It was getting dark and I was getting tired and I needed to rest. I found a nearby clearing in the forest and I decide that it would do. I started to miss home. It was winter so it was cold and I missed home already. My warm winter blanket, my mother, my little brother, my friends. I missed everything about All Stars Academy. I was starting to regret this plan of mine. I fell asleep and I woke up again. I heard a stallions call and then thundering hoof beats. I got up and looked around me. The hoof beats were surrounding me. The moon shone bright right above the clearing. I saw a dark shadow right in front of me. It eyes as bright as the moon above, it's coat as dark as the night sky. It walked towards me and I realized it was a stallion. He was HUGE! He looked down on me with dark brown eyes. He said to me : "What are you doing on my herds land? You have trespassed the land of the Thunder Herd. Do you know the consequences?" his voice was firm yet soft at the same time. "I...uh...I was just...uh...I was just finding a place to rest fro the night as I have escaped from All Stars Academy. I also need to find a herd to stay in uh...sir" I was a nervous-wreck! For all I know he could challenge me to a fight! I was shaking a and shivering in fear and from the cold forest wind. "I hope you are shaking from the wind and not me and don't ever call me sir. Do you understand?" He gave this cocky look as he said the first bit. "Yes I am shaking from the wind and you because, well...I mean you could challenge me to a fight or something and I won't call you sir but if I may ask, what is your name?" I was still shaking. "Shadow, the names shadow and I am the leader of the Thunder Herd. Come with me" "How do I know you aren't going to kill me?" "Just come or do you want me to do that?" Shadow said as he looked back. Shadow was a gigantic horse probably standing at 17.8 hh. He had a beautiful, silky long black mane and tail surprisingly. He had no markings other than a small white star under his forelock which you could barely see. We walked in silence and then I saw a few shadows at the far end of the forest. I figured out as we got closer they were horses. Shadow lead me away from the horse to a different place. "You can sleep here for the night. I suggest that if you were smart you'd be gone by sunrise" and with that he cantered off towards the horses. I was scared and I didn't know what to do. I made my choice and I just hoped it was the right one...
