JJ mom said can you please go out and do chorse early today sure I said as I got up from the computer, I walked into the barn to start the horses grain, as I did i noticed that all of babys tack was gone. I had figured that mom or dad had put it back in the trailer, I grabed reno's and babys grain buckets to fill them with hot water. I filled the buckets with hot water as dad walked, Hi dad! hay BugBug did you feed baby,mitch and Ben last night ya why is something wrong? he grumbled around like usual and started yelling at me saying I needed to be more careful with the gates and make sure they get chained good, I looked at him funny asking what he ment and he said you forgot to chain the gates good didnt you. No I said I didnt open them last night I just through the hay over and feed baby his grain over the fence why, dad said that baby is missing and so is mitch and Ben. what as I ran out the door I noticed that the gate was wide open and all horses were missing as I reached the barn I noticed that the only halter that was missing was Babys, Mom, Mom I started yelling as I ran up the drive way, What she asked as I ran into my grandmas house Mitch, Ben, and Baby are missing, what do you mean there missing asked mom There missing as in gone I said. I told mom I was going to start searching the roads and feilds near by, NO said mom you get on one of the other horses and start searching the hill thats most likely were mitch and ben will go if they got loose. as I ran to the barn to grab reno's briddle I jumped on bareback and start for the hill JJ mom yelled, WHAT I replied Dont forget you cell phone and call us immediately if you find one of them, in the mean time im going to go around and look for baby. about 2 hours later I notice been laying down in a small grassy area, I ride over and notice a pool of blood around his leg, I jump down from reno and went over to him, good I thought as he was still alive. I dialed moms number as quick as possible, mom I found Ben he hurt his leg and hes lost a lot of blood but hes still breathing, Ok mom said can you get off the hill I dont know I havent tried, I will call you back in a few minutes Ok mom said. I bent down and stroked Bens neck to help sooth him. Man i thought something has really scared him as his neck and flankes were covered in sweat. he lifted his head up and nickered quitely as if saying thank god your here. as i put the halter on him, I heard a couger growling and what sounded like a galloping horse. a few minutes later here came mitch at full run and the cougar tailing behind him. I grabed my High pitched whistle and started blowing it knowing that was the only thing that would even remotly get the cougars attintion, after a few seconds that really felt like minutes of blowing the whistle the cougar stoped and soon took off up the hill growling. after a couple more seconds I quite and went back over to Ben he was laying there shaking and scared, as I finished puting on the halter mitch came walking up. hay mitch I said in a quite voice trying to settle him, he walked over and rested his head on mys shoulder with a few seconds of standing there he colapsed from exaustion. I bent down expecting to find him dead but to my suprise he was still breathing as i grab my cell phone trying to dial the vet I noticed that mitch had deep gashes in his hind quarter, Shasta View Animal clinic shanon answered, Shanon its JJ I said in a rush explaining what happend and that I need terri here As soon as possible. Ok shanon said in a calm collected voice terri is at her house now were abouts are you, as I gave her the directions I noticed that reno wasnt any were to be seen D*mnit I thought now we reno missing.
