(Okay, well Im bored, cause Im waiting for the farrier to come do my horse's feet *sighs*)
Annabelle flashed back, remembering:
"Atta boy!" She told Doc, smiling as they galloped through their crosscountry course at the South Wind 4 star Event. They were approaching a cross country jump that sloped down at a tretcherous angle when Anna felt Doc get uneasy. 'You can do it." She tapped him with the crop for reinforcement, and Doc, wanting to please, lept the jump, only to land, snapping his leg in half under him. Annabelle had fallen forward, her neck bent strangely, when Doc's large body crushed her back with blinding force, much worse than Mason's had, and they tumbled down the hill togethor. When they finally stopped, Annabelle was underneath Doc's body. Her vision was black, and when they finally had gotten Doc off of her, her body was bent in strange ways. Her baby boy was barely alive, and she heard them say that he had broken both front legs in the crash, including his neck and a few back vertebre. "Should we put him down?" They asked one another, but they thought he was gone, so Doc was alive through the whole time that they were clearing everything away, and trying to take care of Annabelle. Finally, after an hour, they realised he was alive, and put him to sleep. Anna was rushed to the hospital where she was put into surgery. The doctors hadnt been sure if she would make it, or even if she was paralized, for her vertebre were crushed, and close to her spinal nerves. The fall has haunted Annabelle for the past 3 years, and she blames herself for telling Doc it was okay to jump.
(Back in the present)
Anna walked out of the secret room, forgetting to close it, and lock it. She had dried her tears, and walked out of the barn to go check on Lark.
(Dun dun duuunnnnnn. Anybody here have curious characters? lol)
