Riding the Wind -- INCOMPLETE

The Race

As I tacked up my white, dusty pony, Misty, I started walking to the ring. Jace was waiting there, warming up his beautiful, black stallion.

"Hey! What are you doing? Are you jumping?!" I shouted at him.

He turned around with a smirk on his face "Yeah, ready for your butt to be kicked my me and Tiger?" He asked.

"Nope! Cuz I'm gunna kick your butt!" I exclaimed, trying to tame my anger.

=_=

Once I reached the ring, I noticed that the shimmering quarterback was looking at me then Jace with her ears forward. When she noticed I was staring at her, she put her ears back and pranced around the round ring. If horses could blush, she'd be bright red right now!

"Hey! What are you looking at?" He said, snapping me out of my daze.

"N-nothing!" I exclaimed, kicking Misty into the middle of the ring, "Are you ready to get your butt handed to you by a girl?" I asked, tauntingly.

"Nope! Because I'm not the one whose gunna lose!" He exclaimed, full of himself as always.

I chuckled then responded, "Sure.."

As we entered the starting line, in the middle of the ring, he explained the rules quickly, "Okay so, the middle of the ring is the starting line AND the finishing line. You start galloping straight out until you hit the rail. Turn right-"

"Left? Wait, you were about to say right weren't you? Well that's not fair because my horses good lead is on the left, so we aren't going your way!!" I cut him off.

He let out an annoyed sigh then continued speaking, "LEFT! Then take two laps and meet back in the middle, kay?"

"Okay, fine. Get ready get set GO!" I exclaimed

Before my horse could get going, he kicked my stirrup off my foot and I lagged behind trying to fix it.

"HEY! That wasn't fair!" I shouted. He just laughed while completing his first lap.

I got going into a canter when realization hit me like a bullet. I'm riding Misty, the laziest pony at the barn. I started to canter, transitioning into a gallop when he took his victory into the middle of the ring.

"HA!" He shouted, "Tomorrow you HAVE to wear a skirt." He said emphasizing 'have'

"But-but, you cheated!" I exclaimed.

"Wasn't in the rules now was it?" He said smirking evilly.

Wow.. He got me good. I thought to myself, growing angrier by the minute. I swear my head was about to blow off..
