Chapter 5
Nothing really happened until I was leaving the park. I searched in my purse for my iPod shuffle and earphones. Plugging it in, and putting the earphones in my ear, I tried to drown out my worry, loneliness, and sadness.
I couldn't drown it out for very long because behind me a street light broke. I turned around to see nothing out of the ordinary, except for the broken glass at the base of the lamp. I slowly walked over to it, curious as to what broke it. As I reached out, and touched the black cold lamp pole with my fingertips, there was this creepy laughter from all around me.
"It's a shame really." A voice said tauntingly as black horses rose from the ground and neighed in response. They lifted their front legs almost coming down on me, until I jumped backwards before they could.
I backed away from the pole as the horses galloped all around me.
"You could have been a great apprentice. Maybe, if I would have twisted your morals a bit, you still could have been. But, I'm feeling lazy. Jack Frost obviously has some interest in you, and I don't know why. The only option for me to do is to kill you." He sighed annoyed. "If only, Jack Frost was here to watch you die. It would have been so helpful if you died when the ice cracked, but unfortunately that was not the case. Careful, my dear, my beautiful horses can smell fear." The voice was like ice, but soon it melted, as the body which it belonged to faded away, leaving me to his black mysterious horses.
