Emily walked to the quiet stall. She was happy to see her chesnut quarter horse quietly standing in the stall. She took the blue halter and put it over the quiet horse. She went to the tack room and got the tack.
She walked back to the stall carrying the tack. She opened the door of the stall and tacked up the horse. The chesnut horse stood quietly. As she finally put on the bridle she heard foot step. She opened the tack door and led the horse out. She went to see who was walking into the dark red barn. It was her mom! She knew her mom NEVER came to her stables.
"Hey"Emily said, "what are you doing here?"
As her mom came closer there were tears running down her cheeks.
"Your father he.." her mother said.
"He what?"
Then there was a gunshot. The chesnut horse named Angel immediatly spooked. The reins broke and the horse ran.
"ANGEL!!!!" Emily yelled.
She ran around the stable's yards. Luckily her trainer was just walking out the office where Angel ran. The trainer was carrying treats. Angel stopped when she sensed the smell of the apple flavored treats. She came closer to Emily's trainer and took the treats. She called the secretary to give her a halter. She put it over the horse's bridle.
Emily walked over.
"Thankyou Catherine."
"Of course..How did Angel run over here?"
"I..I heard a gun shot."
"A gunshot?"
"Yeah, my mom came and she said something about my dad but she didn't finish her sentence. Then I heard a gunshot and Angel went running."
"where's your mother?"
" I don't know I think she's still in the barn."
A few minutes later, Emily's mother came.
"Oh hi mom..."
"Why did you go running?!?!?! I knew buying that horse was a big mistake" her mom said.
"Didn't you hear that gunshot?and what happened to dad?"
"Yes I did. Your father has.."
Then the stable hand came.
"Catherine, you better come over here.."the stable hand said.
"I better put Angel away." Emily said.
Emily and her mom took the horse back to her stall and quickly untacked Angel.
Then she saw Catherine, her trainer, sadly walking into the barn.
"Catherine what happened?" Emily said.
Catherine motioned Emily and her mom to come. They went around the corner and went to the pasture. There in the pasture layed 3 horses and a foal.
"OH MY GOSH!!! What happened Catherine?"Emily cried.
"That gunshot you heard..killed 4 horses." Catherine said.
"this filly is still awake. If we call the vet we can keep her alive." the stable hand said.
A half an hour later the vet came. After some pokes and prods, the vet said, "it looks like this filly has fractured 3 ribs and sprained 2."
"Can you do anything to help her?" Catherine and the stable hand said.
"Yes, but we'll hve to take her to the clinic and stay there for 2 months while she recovers."
The vet loaded the filly into the trailer.
"Anyway, what happened to dad?"emily said
"he.. had a heart attack."her mom said.
"He what?!?!?How? and where is he? Can we go to the hospital? What.."
"Hold on with all the questions. We need to go see him at the hospital"
She walked back to the stall carrying the tack. She opened the door of the stall and tacked up the horse. The chesnut horse stood quietly. As she finally put on the bridle she heard foot step. She opened the tack door and led the horse out. She went to see who was walking into the dark red barn. It was her mom! She knew her mom NEVER came to her stables.
