it wasn’t bad. $589 thousand dollars.
“Oh hey angel I need to go look at a few horses that are a little out of town want to come?” She had a weird pleading look in her eyes that made me wonder and shake my head yes.
When we hit the road we were surrounded by a canopy of trees again making the descending sun’s ray’s glow through. The tall strong trucks and there lush green leaves. I can just imagine all the little wild life going on beyond human eyes.
Something in the corner of my eye cough my attention, it was like a feeling. It was like strong warning sign. It made my skin feel hot and itchy. Staring out in the woods I see a huge dark shadow flash through the underbrush. Could it be a bear? I looked at the speed we were going the orange dial was pointing to 45 miles per hour. No.. maybe. Then it seems as if the shadow is moving closer, it can’t be a bear because when you look closer you can see its leaner and has a longer snout. It might be a over grown wolf!
“Do you guys have wolves here?” I said Aunt Abby
“No.. while not that I know of why?” She wasn’t really paying any attention.
“Nothing.” I mumble and keep on looking. It’s still following in my view so I wonder if its following us. I smirk, right like a animal would run after a car. It seemed to turn its head and I inhaled deeply because it seemed to have humanlike eyes. They were almost black with a golden fiery touch to them. But all to soon it was gone and we were turning on a long road.
Pulling up to a big barn a person was already standing there. She was tall with brown hair that flowed to her shoulders. Getting out of the truck my Aunt walks up to her,
“Mrs. Belay, how are you.” My Aunt shook her hand “This is my niece, where here to look at those horses!” My Aunts voice seemed to come out smooth and confident when she was around other people.
“Ah Mrs. Clove very nice to meet you.” She smiled “Right this way.” We walked in the big barn. There seemed to be never ending stalls of horses all different color, sizes.
“Why are we here again?” I whisper
“We are getting you a horse of course, can’t have you on my ranch without your own!” she smiled broadly at her own surprise. I was shocked I thought I was going to just ride one of her many horses. I have been riding since I was 4 years old. So I smiled a fake smile and acted exited even though deep down I was just a little.
“Really, that is so cool!!” God could I have said that any worse? But she didn’t seem to notice.
“Okay go through that guys on the left side and see if you like any.” Belay said as Clove and she walked off down to the right side. After 20 minutes had past I got board and not saw any I really liked. But don’t get me wrong they were all very pretty and seemed great. I turned around to see Clove and Belay deep in conversation. Not wanting to interrupt I walk outside. I stop.
There in a small coral was the most beautiful creature I have ever seen. He was pure white from head to tail. He glistened in the setting sun. His eyes were like no other, they were so deep blue. He was kicking and rearing trying to get out of such a small corral. He looked as if from a different world. He had to be at least 16” hands high. When I finally reached the bars and curled my fingers around them. When he swung his head around he immediately stopped and nickered happily as if was waiting for me. Being careful I climbed up the bars and sit down on the top so I was face to face with him.
He brought his nose up and nudged me, when I started to rub his velvety nose his whole body seemed to relax in appreciation. He put his head over my shoulder and as his he was hugging me pulled his head closer. I hugged him back and in that instant I didn’t feel so alone, I felt at home somehow. In that second I knew I would get him no matter what.
“Why ill be dammed look at you!” Belay’s voice sounded behind me surprising me enough to let go. “ I have never seen anyone be able to get that close to him since we found him.” Belay was smiling broadly. When my Aunt and Belay got closer he started backing away and pulled back his ears. His eyes were flickering from me to them.
“Is he for sell?” I ask quietly
“While… I don’t know he is something special that’s for sure! I don’t even really know what he is expect he looks like a white roan stallion and those are almost gone from this world.” Belay says timidly.
“How much?” I asked, I had to get him.
“While I would have to say at least 15,500 dollars, but that’s way too much for you.” Is that smugness I hear in her voice? I growl in my head.
“I’ll put in a extra 1,500 for tack.” I mumble and pull out my check book and start writing. Belay looked shocked when I handed it to her and Aunt Clove looked proud of me.
By the time I got him in to the horse trailer and his tack in the back of the truck it was almost 10.00 pm. We were home before I could close my eyes, my Aunt told me to go to bed and be nice and rested for school tomorrow even though he was struggling and rearing half heartedly trying to get to me. But I let her do it anyway. Stepping in my room I smile faintly it really does look like winter wonderland. Trailing my finger on the wall I leave a nice trail of frost. Rummaging through the bathroom draws I finely find it and pull the razor out. I untie the ribbons that are on both wrists and look down. There were many scars almost 18 on each wrist, that’s how many days it’s been since I found out that the leader got away and that’s how many days I haven’t killed them myself.
Placing the razor on my wrist I think of my little sister’s happy face when I push her on the swings and my mum’s voice every time she would say goodnight. But most of all that feeling of my father’s hugs when I hugged him every possible minute I had. Then I remember their faces when I didn’t save them. Biting back a howl of pain I look down to notice I cut deeper than I expected. The red crimson blood seemed lighter than most people’s but I think it’s just because of the things I can do. After I am done I sterilize my cut and the blade I walk to my room and take off my pants so all I am in is my underwear and a t-shirt.
Groaning I remember that I have to go to school tomorrow. I remember when Aunt Abby told me that I I am going to the academy here instead of the regular high school. Or as she put it “Sweetie it will be good for you, this school is better than that on come on give it a try.” It made me angry but I didn’t bother I didn’t care were I went just wanted to be done with school for the rest of my life. Sliding to bed was like falling into a oblivion of feathers but that still didn’t keep the bloody dreams from my mind.
