Author's Note: Never written a War Horse fic. Fell in love with both the book and movie, then had a spot of inspiration from watching Lost in Austen (for sadly about the millionth time I might add).

Will not be totally in first person. Just in the introduction here and the journal entries with some chapters. I know that Mildred might seem like an older name, but there is a reason for it.

And has anyone else noticed that it's Stewart from the book/movie but on here is Stuart? Does anyone know for sure which is right?

Hope nothing is OOC.

Complete Summary:

With a new year comes a new adventure…

A self-declared spinster at only 25, with a simple lifestyle, Mildred Callahan craves change. She doesn't realize change is coming, but in a way she doesn't expect. The trouble starts New Year 's Day when Mildred finds an unfamiliar horse in her pasture. The arrival of the horse triggers another strange event: a fevered man claiming to be a formerly captured Major from WWI and that's his horse in her field.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire…

Major Jamie Stewart has survived the horrors of war and being captured by the Germans, only to find himself in a nightmare of another type after falling through a door into Mildred's tack room. He's fevered, in unfamiliar surroundings, and some strangely dressed woman is telling him this is the future: 2000. He has no idea how Topthorn arrived before him.

Love comes from even the strangest of circumstances…

Despite the time gap, Mildred finds herself drawn to Jamie's antiquity, to the period he represents, as Jamie finds himself attracted to Mildred's strength and independence.

But existence in two worlds comes with a choice…

Mildred must choose between the life she has always lived and the man she has fallen in love with where two separate worlds collide.

Disclaimer: I do not own any characters from War Horse.


Worlds Collide

Introduction

I wish I could say that this story started with something quite exciting, like an earthquake or the loud opening of a hidden portal in the nearest field. Anything more out of the ordinary than just a horse appearing in my pasture.

But of course, it's all in the details sometimes.

And this detail, just happened to be, a horse.

A horse that brought with him a master - the man who would change my life…
