Snow narrowed his eyes and gave Riley a short glance. "Recently," he began, "we've had a slight mishap with our last gamemaker.." "I quite understand that sir," she replied, looking into his snake-like eyes, "and what I also understand, is that you want me as the new gamemaker." "Lets not say new. How about, current." "Alright then, current-" "And you're right," he interrupted, "I do want you as the current gamemaker." He taps his desk as if waiting for a reply. "You have skills, Riley. Skills that we want. Now," he pauses as he picks the white rose from his desk, "we wouldn't want what happened last year to happen again, would we?" He hands Riley the rose and kisses her hand. Riley tries hard not to choke from the horrifying smell as she answers, "No."

What was I supposed to feel at that moment? Sadness? Fear? No, I knew how I felt, and I shouldn't have denied it. I felt mad. There wasn't a particular reason. Maybe it was the horse. Maybe it was my papa. It didn't matter now. I crouched down, and crawled underneath the wooden poled fence. I passed Papa, who was cradling his arm to his stomach, and walked towards the horse. Once it's black eyes met mine I hesitated to move forward. But I did. And I regret it to this day. "Cassidy! Get away from that horse!" The horse backed up on its hind legs and brought both front hooves down. On my head.
