Chapter 2
As they reached the cross country course Lillie bought Jasper to a halt and waited for Izzy and Mystic to catch up. Lillie patted Jasper on the neck and lent forward to wrap her arms round his neck giving him a hug.
"Wow Jasper is still as fast as he has ever been" said Izzy with a surprised look on her face. Lillie giggled.
"Should we get going?" asked Lillie with a big smile across her face, Izzy nodded and trotted Mystic on as Lillie kept Jasper at a halt letting Izzy get a head start. As she looked around she thought she saw something in the trees but she just shook her head and got Jasper to trot on. He took each jump with ease as he cantered around the track. As Lillie and Jasper approached the last jump there was a sudden loud bang which caused Jasper to spook and shy at the jump, Lillie gained control of Jasper and managed to calm Jasper down.
"Lillie are you alright" Izzy asked as she cantered Mystic over to where Lillie and Jasper stood, Lillie nodded.
"What was that?" Lillie said looking at Izzy as she got Mystic to halt next to Jasper. Izzy just shrugged her shoulders.
"Let's go find out" said Lillie as a big smile light up her whole face. Izzy rolled her eyes but then agreed to it.
As they trotted along the wide open land from which the loud noise came from Lillie saw a shadow again, but it wasn't just any shadow it was a shadow of a big black horse.
"Izzy look at that" she said pointing over into the distance. As Izzy looked over the dark figure disappeared.
"There is nothing over there Lillie it's just long grass" said Izzy in an un amused tone.
"I saw a horse Izzy look follow me" said Lillie. Then she kicked Jasper on into canter shortly followed by Izzy and Mystic. They cantered around the field for about half an hour until they came across a big piece of land that they had never came across before.
It was around 5 acres of land, the grass was a bright green colour and there was a couple of hills that were dotted around and in the middle of the land there was a big lake, the water in the lake was a dark blue and the light reflected off it as if it was a mirror.
As they looked over the land Lillie was the big black horse but it appeared to be alone, it didn't seem as if it was wild but instead it seemed it was either lost or abandoned.
