My trouble began with the black haired kid. Up until then I was having a great day.

I was going to the park with my best friend, Tyler "Sly" Wessenhert. We were talking about skating, the latest video games, and of course being teens, girls. Then the winged horse came.

"Whoa!" Sly yelled. "What in the world is that?! Look at it, Athen!"

I turned to look, and there was a beautiful white horse nearly as long as a car with... wings. The strangest thing about it was that it seemed to have a golden crown on its and it was telling me to get on its back.

"Is that a horse with wings?" I asked.

"No!" Sly yelled! "Don't you see it? It's a white bicycle that moves on its own! And it's going to be mine!"

"No!" I screamed. "It's not going to let you on its back!"

"On...its...back? It's a bike for goodness sake!" Sly answered.

So, as he was trying to get on the crowned horses' back, it, as I expected, bucked Sly off.

"OW!" Sly yelled, his voice seemingly higher than usual.

"Wait." I said, my voice surprisingly calm. "Let me try."

"It's going to buck you off it like me." Sly said.

"I have a feeling it won't." I told him.
