The next day, Julie and Mavrick rose with the sun. They set off to where ever it was they were going. Mavrick stopped suddenly, Julie placed a hand on his shoulder.
"What is it?"
'I smell the smoke of the vehicles, I hear them as well,'
"I don't hear anything,"
'Your hearing isn't as good as mine my friend,' He turned his head to look at her, his forlock was parted and a gleaming white star shown brightly on his forhead.
"I would imagine thats where your horn is,"
'Yes, the marking is a reminder that I am a unicorn and must follow the Code of Loyalty,' He turned his head back, something bothered him when he spoke of the Code.
"We've got to get moving, they might notice we're here," Julie began to walk, Mavrick followed her, his ears still trained on the direction he smelt the dogs and cars.
They walked several miles until they woods stopped and it was open field. Mavrick was lost in thought. Julie was watching where she stepped. Julie and Mavrick were startled when they heard something buzzing out of the woods. Burt bikes and four-wheelers, there were dogs too. Julie hopped on Mavrick and they ran.
Tears welled in Julie's eyes, they were going so fast, she didn't know if she could hang on much longer. There was a truck coming up behind them, its driver looked down at the speed he was running.
"Brint, look at this!" He pointed. "I've hit fifty and hes still leaving us!"
"Mavrick, I can't hang on, I'm slipping!" Julie yelled over the hoof beats.
'Hold on Julie, I'm getting us out of here!'
He started to slow down, his star begain to glow now and and beam shot from it and opened a portal infront of them. It was well above the ground though. Mavrick's ears perked forward. He slowed to collect his gait to jump.
'When I tell you to lean forward, lean forward!'
"OK"
He got four feet infront of the opening and brung his front legs up.
'Ok lean forward'
Julie leaned forward and the jumped into the portal. Light flashed by them, blues, purples, greens, white and darkness took over Julie.
