heartbreak and love I looked out at the rainy day. It seemed as if the whole world was grieving for Cloud. To me, it seemed like it wasn't even possible that i would never see my lovely horse again. "Amy!" I heard my mom call from downstairs. "Rosie's here!" "No thanks!" I called back. I had never said no to Rosie before but after Cloud died two days ago i was hardly even the same person. I heard my door creak open. "Come on. you have to come out of here at some point!" Rosie said as she came into my room. I curled up on my bed and felt the tears well up in my eyes. "Hey, I didn't mean to make you even more sad. I just meant maybe we could go for a ride in the woods to take your mind off things." "The last thing i want to right now is ride!" I cried back. "OK, then just a walk through the woods. Please? I haven't seen you in forever!" "You saw me on Thursday!" "Oh. Right. Well you still need to come with me.We are going to get you out of this depressing room right now!" I almost smiled to myself. When Rosie set her mind on something there was no talking her out of it. "Alright. Lets get this over with." I said as I sat upright in my bed. We walked downstairs together and when we got down my mom looked as shocked that Rosie got out of my room as I felt. "Bye Mrs. Terracot!" "Bye mom." "Bye girls. Have fun!" As Rosie and I walked in the woods the rain pelted at my face. "Isn't it getting a bit stronger?" I asked. "Uh, maybe." "Do you think we should go back?" "Well, um, yeah. Yeah I guess we should. Um, witch way is back?" "What?!" I squealed. "You don't know?!" "No! You go look over that ridge and see if you can spot town. We know our way back to your house from there." "OK." I climbed over branches and and wet leaves squished under my boots. When I got to the top of the ridge I couldn't see anything in the rain witch had now turned in strong sheets of raindrops pounding down on my face. As I was about to turn around I heard a faint whinny I would recognize anywhere. I whirled around just in time to see silver wisps come out of the rain and form the shape of a large elegant Arabian. I could barely breath. I thought I might faint. I never saw something this crazy in my whole life! There, standing right in front of me was Cloud. "C-Cloud?" I stammered. "I-Is it really you?" Cloud nickered back to me.She took a step forward,and then another, walking slowly toward me. When she was just a few inches away from my face I stumbled forward and, with a trembling hand, touched her silver face. It was solid! She was really there! Not like a ghost horse but really there! I knew she wasn't really alive, but I also knew something else. This day was even better than the day I first met cloud. I threw my arms around her neck and buried my face in her mane. Finally, I let my tears flow. I must have stayed there for over half an hour and then drifted off cause the next thing I new I heard Rosie calling out to me. The rain had stopped and cloud was gone. I felt sad for a moment but then something stopped me. A small, faint feeling inside my heart told me that I shouldn't be sad. That was not the last time I would see her. When Rosie found me I was beaming from ear to ear. "There you are! I was so worried about you!" "OK mom! Don't worry about me!" I laughed. "Har har. Anyways, I found a way home over through those trees. And why are you suddenly so happy? Did I miss something?" I chuckled. "Maybe." We walked home in the dewy air in silence. When I opened the door my mom was pacing back and forth in the kitchen. "There you two are! Oh, I was so worried!" "Don't worry mom. We're fine." I smiled. Mom looked at Rosie as if to say 'why is she suddenly so happy?' Rosie shrugged. That night in bed, as I was turning off my lamp, I heard something outside. I went over to the window and looked. What I saw made my heart soar. I saw Cloud outside my window rearing on her hind legs and whinnying. "Good night Cloud. I'll see you soon." Then I went back to my bed and turned out the light.

Don’t leave me my dear My beautiful bay mare The love I carry for you Is greater than anything that could pull us apart Don’t leave me my dear And plunge me into darkness Searching for you For the light that shines Off your shiny coat And your sweet brown eyes Always so loving Don’t leave me My beautiful bay mare	pp2 & Finnigan

PonyGal103 Hannah's Dream Chapter 1 I LOVE horses. Hi my name is Hannah and what most people don't know is the fact that I LOVE horses. I have never ridden for, well one reason mostly, but I don't care. There is more to horses than riding. I mean I would love to groom one pat one, even see one but my super over protective mom is like "Hanna, you can't ride horses, so there is no reason for you to fall in love with them." So I learned how to knit, sew, play the violin and draw. But I haven't let go of my love for horses. I guess I should explain why, if I love horses so much, I have never ridden. Well five years ago when I was 9, My mom, dad, two brothers, Henry and Michael and I were driving home from a concert when we were hit by a drunk driver. The crash killed my youngest brother Henry. He was only 4. The crash also left me paralyzed from my wait down. I am 14 now and I have only one brother and a dad who left us after the crash. My mom, June, Takes care of Michael and me, but she has to work two jobs and is really tired all the time. Here is how my day usual goes. Wake up, take a shower (with help of coarse,) get dressed, eat, mom will drive me to school, then take Michael, who is 11 now to his school. I go to a different school that helps me with learning how to live in a wheelchair. Then I go home, eat diner and do my homework, then go to bed. I also have a service dog. Her name is Hope and she is a yellow lab. She helps me with getting things for me and if i fall, she can either get help or help me get up. So there is a little bit about my life. It was really hard at first to get used to my wheelchair, but I learned and it goes ok. Sometimes though, I forget and I try to move them, but that doesn't work. I can move my arms, neck, head and I can twist my waist, but that is about it. Any way I might have mentioned that I LOVE horses. I like to draw them, read about them and think about them. But I really, really want to ride. Most people think that I couldn't but i could. There is boy in my class who has ridden at this place called "Horses on Wheels" It's a place where people in wheelchairs can ride horses. I told my mom about it bu she quickly shot the idea down. But I researched the place and now I want to ride even more, which I didn't think was possible. So I talked to the kid, Nathan, he said that his mom was the same at first, but she finally caved and let him try it. That was 2 1/2 years ago, and he is still going. So I guess I have to keep trying. Wish me luck!	Ponygal103 & Sai

The Horse Mystery By - Princess Carmen It was a dark and stormy night with a full moon, Windy and cold. When Kacy thought of her successful mission...Kacy was on the case on her mystery mission once more. She had to find what kept eating Miss. Rachel and Mr. Hunter's Crops. Of course it was somewhat obvious what had made them Deer, Kacy said as she had a smile on her face. Then Miss Rachel said it could not be a deer im afraid. We use to have tons around but after this creature came they have been gone. That's what we brought you here for kacy. It might be more difficult then we thought. You know you don't have to do it kacy. Then kacy replied with a excited and scared loud voice i can do it im not giving up on this mission! Next thing she knew she was going home to get her tools to investigate. She went back to the scene of the missing deer, so she pulled out her magnifying glass and looked at the teeth marks and feet mark they looked bigger then a deer like a horse hoof but there's no wild horses around here. The teeth marks matched a horse too but there were no wild horses around there so that would be impossible maybe it was a big deer she thought to herself ya probably she said to herself again. She went in the woods and saw a white and black blurr. She said in her mind, Stop imagining, Stop Imagining then again she saw a white and black flash! And then she saw a horse running to her she held her hands out and looked away a few seconds later it stopped by her and sniffed her pockets, Do you smell my apple? Kacy said laughing with a smile. The horse dug in her pocket and grabbed the apple. There go's my lunch she said still laughing. The horse followed her back to her farm. But on the way there she had to buy a halter lead rope and ... the secret.....listening method. APPLES! She found a rope and apples and tided horse by the store and dropped a couple apple for her to eat then when she was done the horse ate them all. On the way home she saw missing black and white paint call ***-***-**** if you find. She had enjoyed her time with her horse but knew she had to do the right thing. She called the number and when't to there home and saw a little girl running to the horse. Beauty your back the little girl said and hugged the horse and then her parents came out to. How can we ever thank you! Her parents said. No need to i was just doing my job! Kacy said then her parents said here keep the halter and lead rope we will pay you back. They went inside and came back out and said here. Thanks for your help we were so worried. As they gave her $100 even though she only paid $35. I only paid $35 i cant take $65 more. They replied keep it as a thank you thanks The end	Princess Carmen & Jackie
