"What?! They kill them for food?"

"I am afraid so". Stella couldn't believe it. What kind of sick monster bought horses, them turned around and ate them?

She did not have time to find out, because she was led out of her pen. The human pulled her up in front of the crowd. The "auctioneer" started yapping very quickly. Whatabeautifulhorsewehavehere! Withastartingbidof500dollars,sheisagreatdeal.

Stella had no idea what it was saying, but she could see humans that were yelling out words all very quickly. She prayed that she would not get chosen by the meat cutter. There was one last word yelled out by a woman in fine pelts, and the auctioneer pointed to her, saying a very decisive sounding word.She was once again led over to a pen, where she sat, watching as more horses were sold. Finally, Dillo was led to the middle, and the auctioneer started yelling and yapping again. Once again, the woman raised her hand, yelling out her bid. The auctioneer yelled, and Dillo was led to the pen next to her. Stella let out a long sigh of relief.

When Kyla was led to the middle, Stella couldn't watch.

"Stella! The same human got Kyla!" She heard the voice of Dillo. She looked up too see the woman leading Kyla. Stella was so relieved that she almost fell over.
