Ok. This is my First Phantom Stallion FF. Please review and there will be more, if you like it. If you don't, review anyway, all reviews are always welcome…just I can be mean back. Here it goes! I got this idea of the first chapter because my foal died…too.
Disclaimer – I don't own Phantom Stallion, but I so own this plot.
Chapter One: The Only Difference
Samantha looked down at the dying foal and felt tears sliding down her face. "I knew," she whispered through her sobs, "I knew he wasn't going to make it…but I wanted to believe he could…it's…it's…"
"Shh…Sam, they all can't make it," It was Jake Ely. He was trying his hardest to make her understand, but nothing would help. This was the Phantom's son. She turned away from the dying foal and dried her eyes.
"You're right, Jake," she whispered, "They all can't make it."
Jake took a hold of her arm and led her out of the barn, "Come on Brat, it's time to go in for the night. When you wake up, this will all be over."
But Sam knew that when she woke up, things would be the same. The only difference was that the foal, the Phantom's beautiful son, would be dead. Never to know how beautiful the sun was as it rose above the mountains, and never to know the gentleness of a rain shower quenching the earth's thirst. It would never know what if felt like to be love, but it was loved. And it would never be able to grow into the handsome stallion that Sam had dreamed of.
"You're wrong, Jake," she said softly. "It won't be over in the morning."
Jake stopped walking and turned Sam to him. His fingers wiped away the new tears that streamed down her cheeks. "Sam, please don't cry…I'll do everything in my power to keep that foal alive…just don't cry," he whispered, pleaded.
But Sam did cry.
Jake hesitated, and she could see it. Through the tears she could see it. And then, when she least expected it, he leaned in, and kissed her.
The only difference in the morning would be that the foal was dead…
…and things between Jake and Sam would never be the same.
Yes, I know that it's super short, but it's like ten at night and I have a test tomorrow. So you guys will just have to review and tell me what you think about it, ok? Thank you for reading it. REVIEW…if I get two reviews I'll go on.
