Chapter 1
"Edward, lets go. We are going to miss the plane to Cheyenne!" I sighed and grabbed my purse and Nessie's hand. After we got on the plane Nessie fell asleep and I opened the letter from my sister Katy.
Dear Bella,
I found a black mustang filly a few months ago. I named the filly Flicka, and trained her myself. Dad told everyone to stay out of the corral that she was kept in. I ignored dad and went in at night. Every night I worked with Flicka. I started riding her one night and when I felt that she was trained well enough, I rode her out. Flicka took off and I couldn't stop her. Flicka bucked my off and our parents and Howard came rushing out. The next day, Dad sold flicka to the rodeo. I was so upset and cried and chased the trailer she was in. Flicka was so scared. That was the first time she had been in a trailer and couldn't see the sky. A few days later, Howard's girlfriend came over and we went swimming. She said that she saw Flicka. The horses that she was with were crazy. I got Howard to sign him and I up for the wild horse race. We chose Flicka. The man who was writing the numbers down said that we just lost our selves a race and that she is truly loco. Howard tried to forfeit but I stopped him. We won because at first Flicka didn't recognize me until I called her name out. Mom and Dad found out that we were in the race. They were mad. Dad jumped the rails and was running at us through the arena. Howard told me to go and win the race, we never got a saddle on Flicka, bareback.
I ran right out of the arena and never even tried to stop. We wound up in the mountains after dark I was sad and not to mention, lost. Flicka started walking towards home. She reared and I fell of and she was attacked by a mountain lion. The lion got scarred and left. I used the over shirt I was wearing to try and stop the bleeding from where the claws dug into her back. I fell asleep and Dad found me. I had a high fever and later I thought that they shot Flicka when it was just the mountain lion that was shot. When I healed and the vet helped Flicka Dad took me outside to see her and said that when I feel better I must take good care of her myself. That is all that is new. We all hope to see you soon,Bella, even dad and uncle Hank, who is coming next weekend.
Love you always,
Katy
P.S. ,
Flicka cant wait to meet you and I cant wait for you to meet her.
I was crying and Nessie was asleep. I decided to try and sleep also because Edward was falling asleep beside me and we had a 6 hour flight. Alice said that she would meet us at the airport in cheyenne because she and jasper were looking at a ranch house in laramie county.
