Chapter 2: Love Hurts

Sam and Brynna gasped, it was Quinn, one of Jake's older brothers.

"Quinn?!?!?!?"

"Yeah, so? Get off of me!"

"No, what do you want with my horse?"

"It doesn't matter Sam! Get off of me now!!!!" Quinn pushed himself up, tossing Sam aside.

By now, Jake and Sam's father had come running out, and the Phantom was going crazy. The Phantom was galloping around and around the corral. Just as Jake got there, he saw one of his brothers, Quinn, throw Sam right into the Phantom's path. As the Phantom reared, Jake jumped into the corral, that was a mistake. The Phantom came back down, and as he started to gallop again, his hind hoof hit Sam's head.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jake stood in a daze, staring at what was going on in front of him. Wyatt was crouched by Sam, who was trying to tell him that she was fine. Quinn got up to run, but suddenly Jake unfroze and punched him in the face. Quinn stumbled backwards.

(For the conversation Quinn is italics and Jake is bold.)

"Hey!"

"Why'd you do it Quinn?"

"Because," Quinn lowered his voice so that only Jake could hear, "Because I love her."

Jake was furious and he punched Quinn in the face again, harder this time, and Quinn fell backwards. He was up again instantly, punching at Jake. (fist fight!! Sorry I'll stop now)

Sheriff Ballard's POV

Brynna had called sounding frantic, so he tried to get to River Bend as fast as he could. He jumped out of the car, and heard yelling coming from the corral. When he looked in, he was surprised at what he saw.

Quinn and Jake were fighting, while Wyatt was kneeling next to Sam, who lay on her back. And, of al other things, the Phantom stood in the corner.

He jumped into the corral. Immediately, Quinn tried to run, but Jake hit him again. Sheriff grabbed them both. "What's going on here?"

"Quinn was trying to hurt the Phantom, and when Sam tried to stop him, he threw her in front of the Phantom, and he started to gallop. His hoof hit her head and when Quinn got up to run I punched him," Jake said, completely out of breath.

Sheriff Ballard looked at Wyatt. "Is this true?"

"Yes, every last word." Wyatt picked Sam up despite her protests the she was fine. "I want Quinn arrested, now."

"I agree." Sheriff Ballard turned to Quinn, and released Jake. "Quinn, you're under arrest………." Then, the two of them left in the Sheriffs police car.

"Jake, go get the keys for the pick-up. If you want to you can come with, I'm taking Sam to the hospital."

"Dad! I'm fine! I told you that. I'm not…"

"Sam, I'm taking you and that's final."

Jake came out with the keys.

"Jake, you coming?"

"No, I've got to go tell my mom, and then I'll drive myself there."

"Suit yourself. See you later." Wyatt took the keys and put Sam into the truck. He then got in and drove off. Jake heard the Phantom going crazy, so he put Sam's little gelding, Ace, into the corral with him. Then he got into his car and drove home.

Please R&R, and I'll ask you again, PLEASE HELP ME!!! (if you have no idea what I'm talking about, read chapter 1!
