Author's note: Okay, I wrote this story when I was in 7th grade.It's based on a friend I had, and still have, name kelly. She wanted to be a FUTURE FAMOUS HORSEWOMEN. This story was her living up to that dream. If you guys really like it, I might continue it.
Okay carry along now.
For once Kelly had to win. She and her horse, Spirit, where in the lead. People were cheering, "Go Kelly, go Kelly!" Suddenly, there was wind and rain and she couldn't see. Her heart was pumpin' hard from all the pressure, making her speed up. Then it happened... she fell splat on the cold mud. Jordan and his horse black had pushed her and where now in the lead. But this didn't stop her from reaching her dream. She had a flash back to her memories when she was about to win. This was her last chance to do it. She tried to get up, but couldn't. She forced herself up, and climbed back into the saddle. Kelly tried desperately to catch up, but she new that it would be nearly impossible. She had a champion thoroughbred, and Jordan had a young, inexperienced horse. She asked for all the speed in free spirit, her horse, and slowly caught up. She was even with Jordan, who was whipping his horse hard. Kelly left him behind, and when she looked back, she saw Jordan and black eating their dust! When she crossed under the wire, she new that she was at the end of her strength. She was about to collapse, but free spirit sensed her weakness and slowed down before Kelly fell off. Someone ran up and caught Kelly.
Kelly woke with a start, she felt a sudden pain run through her body and up her spine, "Where am I?" she could only see white.
"Your in the hospital, Kelly." a strange voice said to her. Kelly noticed it was her father.
" Why am I here?" she said.
" When u fell, u fractured your spine, and now your here, healing. You went through a long surgery and..." Kelly cut him off, "What about my horse, will I be able to ride again?" There was silence.
Tears soon were streaming down her face; she would just have to die if she couldn't ride
Just then their was a knock on the door. It was her mom and her little brother, Daniel. She saw that her mom was in tears, too.
"Kelly, are u alright?" her mother asked.
"Yah, but..."their was a pause. She thought about her horse again and how it would be dreadful if she couldn't ride him again, but she had no choice. She loved Free Spirit more than ever and knew she must know
."...But how about Free Spirit?" she said with tears.
"Kelly you must understand." said her mom. "Things do not always go the way you want them to."
"NO, it can't be!"
"He is still alive but very hurt. We have sent him to the hospital for surgery."
"Is he going to live?" asked Kelly worried.
"Maybe, if he survives the operation he will live. All we got to do is pray and hope for a miracle.
Kelly busted into bigger tears.
For the rest of the night Kelly had to stay in the hospital. She wrote in her diary till she fell asleep.
Sorry for any mistakes I made, it was three or four years when I wrote this.
