Of course he gave his unborn child the best gift Alexander thought. He kicked the gravel making them fly into the grass by the stables. Why did he give him the worst gift of all a old horse? He walked over to the stable and examined his horse. The horse “Black Star” was a quite large horse, like a farm horse. Black Star was not at all black except for the little black dots on its face hence the name “Black Star”. The horse wasn’t young at all and was about 19 years old.
“Why did father give me you? I don’t even like you, You can’t even stay awake!” Alexander jumped onto the horse with on swift move. He began galloping away on the trail leading through the forest, on a path that his mother would never approve of. The sun was beginning to set and the forest seemed to glow orange.
The longer he went through the path the fast Black Star went. The wind blew through Alexanders hair making him feel like he could fly. He couldn’t believe how fast the horse went, everything around him a blur of colors . As Black Star rounded the corner Alexander lost his grip. Alexander fell to the ground, the wind knocked out of him.
Black Star came to a complete stop waiting for Alexander to get on. But Alexander couldn’t move. He couldn’t seem to breath. Alexander began to panic. He looked around and saw that he had gotten a large cut going across with wrist to his elbow by the roots sticking up in the path. His leg was in pain. Broken by the position in which he fell.
“Are you alright?”, came a voice from the edge of the forest. A woman’s voice.
Alexander turned his head and standing there by the edge of the forest and standing there was the prettiest girl he had ever seen. She had glowing blue eyes and long dirty blond hair she was wearing no shoes and a long white dress.
“Can you move?” the girl asked.
Alexander tried to talk but the words just wouldn’t form in his mouth. He tried to talk but nothing came out and he began to panic.
“Blink twice if you can’t move”, the girl said walking over to him.
Alexander blinked twice, hoping that the girl could help him some how.
She began to look him over. He thought he heard he gasp when she saw his leg and wrist.
“Are you in pain? Like a lot of pain?”, The girl asked looking right into his eyes. “Blink three times if you are and blink twice if you aren’t.
Alexander blinked three times hoping that she could magically heal him and make him better.
“Are you sure?”, she asked again.
Alexander blinked three times .
She leaned down and with one swift move her teeth were in his neck.
Alexanders screams lit up the night sending Black Star racing back to the house.
