"Come on Girl, we can do this," Amy encouraged the white horse as they trotted into the show ring.
Over the loud speaker you could here And now entering the ring is number 274 Amy Fleming riding Burning Ashes.
Amy urged Ashia into a canter and rode around the ring. Her headache was gone, so she had nothing distracting her. She patted Ashia one more time before gathering the reins and pointing her toward the first jump, a dark green painted oxer. It was about five foot four. Amy was confident that they could clear it. Ashia shortened her stride as they neared the jump. Thud. They landed perfectly over the other side. The next six jumps were a breeze. The first one being the highest and the shortest one being about four foot six.
As Amy and Ashia went for the last jump Amy realized something, she had never jumped Ashia over a wall. It was almost six foot. She felt Ashia tense up a little bit as they got closer. They were six strides away from it. Amy tried to calm her down and then realized, Ashia had her accident when she fell over a wall in a cross country course. Amy kept Ashia going. Come on girl. We got this," Amy whispered trying to encourage the horses. Two strides away. Ashis was still tense. Her stride shortened, but at the last second, Amy felt her loose confidence. Ashia flew her self in the air as Amy lifted herself over the white mare's wither's. Ashia's legs hit the top of the brick wall and fell forward over it. Amy flew from the saddle. And then...everything turned black.
--------------------------------
Amy woke up with a killer headache. She opened her eyes and then quickly shut them to avoid looking into the bright light shining into her eyes.
"She's conscious," she heard a male voice say. She could sense that there were alot of people around her. Her eyelids fluttered open as she realized her was laying the the middle of the show ring. Then everything came rushing back to her The show, Ashia, and the fall...what happened? she thought to herself. She looked around and saw the brick wall laying on it's side. And then she realized...where was Ashia? Amy jumped up quickly and all the pain in her head came rushing back.
"Miss, your going to have to stay laying down. You have a concusion and a pretty bad cut here on your forehead. Please, you have to stay calm," the medic told her.
"But, what happened. Where's my horse?" Amy screamed at hte man but the words came out at barely a whisper. She was being lifted up and placed on a hard falt board. Her eyelids began shutting and sleep overcame her.
--------------------------------
For the next two days Amy layed in the hospital bed unconscious. She had suffered a servere head injury when she hit the ground head first after falling off Ashia. She was in a mild state of coma.
On the second day Ty came by the hospital and sat by Amy's bed and grabbed her hand.
"Ha..I feel kinda like you. When you came and visited me in the hospital when I was in a coma," Ty laughed at himself.
"You know Amy...I miss you. When I got the call from Daniel saying you had fallen, I felt like my whole world collapsed. I got this gut feeling about ten minutes before I got the call, and I thought something was wrong. I wish now that I would have taken you. The doctor's said that you had a concusion before you fell. I mean...if I would have taken you then you wouldn't go a concusion when you hit your head in th truck, then you wouldn't have taken any medicine, and then you would have been thinking clearer when you were riding, and the accident would have never happened. It's all my fault.," Ty layed his head on the bed as tears started coming. HE silently cryed to himself for about five minutes. He looked back up and Amy's sleeping face.
"Please Amy, I love you. Please wake up. Don't leave me," he cried. Then he felt something, he looked down at his hand. Amy was gripping his hand! He looked at her. Her eyes began to open up.
"Amy?" he said quietly.
----------------------------
Amy heard someone yelling her name. It seemed like something was trying to pull her out of the this place she was in. At first she didn't want it to. No, I'm comforted here. Leave me alone! she felt like crying out. But as she got closer and closer she realized she wanted to escape this place that was holding her prisoner. She began to wake up. She felt something touching her. She squeazed it. Her eyes began to open. She looked over at the boy sitting beside her with dark hair and beauiful emerald green eyes.
"Amy?" she heard the boy say.
Who is this? she tought to herself. Wait a second! It's Ty!
"Hey Ty," she said weakly trying to give a smile.
"It's okey. Relax, I'll be right back!" Ty said runnig out of the room. He shortly came back with a nurse. The blonde nurse checked her vitals.
"She looks good," the nurse said. "Try and stay calm. Drink some fluids and don't move around too much. The cut on your head still has stitches in it. Don't wrinkle or strech the skin in your forehead. I don't want to have to re-sew them again. I'll be back leter with you doctor," She said exiting.
"Oh Amy! I'm so glad you woke up!" Ty said jumping up and giving her a hug.
-------------
For the next five days Amy layd in the hospital bed. All of her friends and faily were coming and visting her each day. Ty was keeping her up-to-date with the horses. She had finally gotten to talk to Daniel about Ashia. She was getting better. She had brolen one of her cannon bones on the fall and re-sprianed her tendon. But she was going to be fine, but unfortunatly the break was to bad and she could never jump again. Amy knew that no one would want to by a horse who had broken there legs a sprained there leg twice. She didn't know what she was going to do. She could never get as much money for her, so she would never be able to afford Storm. But Daniel said maybe they would work something out. Amy had plans on helping get Ashia better. Amy was leaving the next day, and Ashia was scheduled to come home four days after that. Amy planned on working wih her to get the leg healed and then get her strength back. She wouldn't be able to jump, but when Amy talked to the doctor on the phone he said there was a possibility that she could be lightly ridden. Amy planned on riding her on the trails, as long as there were no fallen trees. But the vet said that she was still too strong to be put down. So Amy was going to work with her. And luckily for Amy, Ashia was going to stay at Heartland.
