Horse
As
his stamina drains, his fear rises. He's near panic now. He gallops
down the road, away from the monsters that chase him. His rider leans
forward, lessening her weight on the saddle; he picks up speed.
The
monsters break off. He's gone too far out of their territory. She
looks back one more time.
“Whoa”
She says as she tugs the reins and settles back into the saddle. He's
allowed to slow... and pant as the last bit of adrenalin evaporates
with his sweat. All is well now.
