Chapter 1
Amy Fleming and her mom Marion got out of the truck as the April sky rumbled. They were dropping off a client's horse that had had problems with trailer loading. Mr. Greene, Chariot's owner, was at work and had told them to put him in the round pen. "Looks like it's going to rain." Marion commented, and if to make her point rain droplets started coming down. "Let's unload Chariot and go home." Amy said. She grabbed a lead rope from the truck and went to the trailer. Marion opened the trailer's door and Amy climbed in to get Chariot. Chariot was a sleek black gelding with a blaze.
Chariot unloaded perfectly and Amy led him to the round pen. A bolt of lightning pierced the sky. Chariot flicked his ears and jumped forward. "Easy boy. It will be ok. Don't worry." Chariot visibly calmed down. Amy opened the round pen's gate and unclipped Chariot. He trotted over to a short bay mare. Amy ran back to the truck just as the rain started pounding down. She closed the truck door and buckled her seatbelt. "Let's go mom." Marion smiled at her daughter and started the truck.
Amy grabbed her seat as the truck spun on the road. "Mom?!" Amy said. Marion frowned at the road. "It will be ok." She said through gritted teeth. Suddenly a buck ran out in the middle of the road. Marion slammed on her brakes. The truck's back wheel spun out of control. A bolt of lightning light up the sky. At the last second Marion swerved to avoid the deer. The truck went straight down in to the ditch. The last thing Amy remembered was screaming "Mom. MOM!" Then everything went black.
I am sory the first chapter is so short but I promise they will get longer.
