Penny: A Narrative Fiction

I lead him by leather reins to the outdoor ring where my trainer would see him work for the first time. He trotted circles around me and spooked at the wind. I returned to the barn and let him run and buck so he could burn off extra energy. When I heard my trainer’s golf cart stop in front of the barn, I caught him and prepared to mount. My trainer arrived and held his bridle while I put my foot in the stirrup. When foot made contact with iron, the horse bolted. He spun himself in circles around my trainer while I balanced half on, half off struggling to find the saddle and my balance. As soon as I was seated, the horse was loose. I gathered my reins and sat as calmly as I could. Suddenly, he bucked and threw me forward. As I fell onto his neck, he continued bucking. My trainer yelled, “Sit up! Pick his head up!” I was able to do neither. When I fell, the cold ground greeted me with a slap. I struggled to slowly stand as I clung to my now wet

And finally news had broken out that the puppies have been born and all 101 will be up for sale in the next week. My plan was in motion. Horace and Jasper offered to help me steal the new born puppies along with the two dalmatians. I felt uneasy about the plan but intended to follow through. I was not going to let Roger and Anita win. Horace and Jasper had brought their enormous van and I prepared the the blankets and cages for the newborn puppies. The day had passed and the night had come. Horace and I found out where the lovely couple lived and learned where they left the spare key. Under the mat. How ridiculous. Anyone could easily break in, how unlucky. It was midnight when Horace and I snuck into the house. We took both Pongo and Anita’s dalmatian Perdita. Both were fighting my grip and barking so we had to put a mouth restrainer on both of them. I was not leaving without my Pongo. The puppies were cooperative, we gently took them and wrapped each one in a blanket then placed them in the cages.When all of the dogs were safely secured in the back of the van we began to drive away. After 20 minutes of driving I asked Jasper to pull over. I opened the back of the van to check up on the dogs.

Penny and David lived in the city of love, and in love they were. They grew up together

Purple bruises were scattered across her frail wrist like grotesque, swollen beetles. Her knee jutted out awkwardly to her side. Her bleeding, cracked lips were shrunken to a tiny buttonhole. Her tongue stuck out between her teeth like a piece of rubber. Her eyelids fluttered feebly as she lay there - defeated, defenseless, and desolate. Her chest heaved up and down, as her lungs fought for breath – she was barely alive. A caked, muddy trail of shoeprints followed him out the door. He had gotten away again. Tears prickled at the back of my eyes. My throat swelled up as my steely resolve began to dissolve. Grief shook my shoulders like an inner earthquake, the world around me crashing down. A nauseating mixture of relief and horror clenched tightly onto my loins – like when you finally stop an itch, only to realize that you’ve ripped a hole in your

As he moved her he saw a small trickle of blood run out of the side of her mouth and he brushed it away quickly with his gloved hand. He pulled her coat round to cover her up, to keep her warm, and then he saw it.

So I went down to the barn and saddled that horse right up. I should have known not to just jump on this big horse. He was acting very agitated throwing his head. Stomping his feet all over the place. I ignored all signs of turmoil and jumped on. When I got on I expected everything. But, nothing happened he just stood there like a perfectly tame horse. So I let my guard down loosened up my

His wounds were cleaned up, but blood still found a way through his abraded skin. She observed her own hands, touching her forehead. Her own injuries were the same as that of his.
