My Dream

Into The Woods

//Edited//

I was on my horse riding through the trails in the woods because well I actually don't even know why. The sky was dark and snow fell in flurries around us. With every exhale mist blew in my face.

What seemed like hours later but were in reality just minutes we kept on going through the white and soft snow. On our passage through the cold dark woods my horse, Nightmare, and I came across a frozen river.

Getting off my black furred mare who stood as silently as the forest around us, with the occasional snort. I carefully walked towards the what once was a fast flowing river. Grabbing a nearby fallen branch I poked the hard shell that covered the icy water.

Thump... Thump... Thump...

The river was solid. After checking a few more times I strode toward my awaiting steed. Shivering I mounted upon her back and sturdied myself before giving her a nice and hard kick which propelled her forward at a slow and weary walk.

While walking over the unknown river slowly trying to keep myself steady on her back. Nightmares hooves pounded on the cold surface.

Clip. Clop. Clip. Clop.

She seemed tense. As if one wrong move and we would slip and plummet into the deep depths of the frozen river. Although it was sturdy ground she still felt worried because the whites in her eyes could be seen. But we made I over without a so much as a crack in the ice.

We continued on into the other side of the river bank this time at a trot. Through the large barren trees that surrounded the both of us. Pulling my scarf closer to my face I gave Nightmare a big pat on her neck for a job well done.

Then the everything's started to fade.
