Heart Of A Horse

Open land ( chapter 1)

I stood on my four sleek black legs, that were strong with muscle. I was a naturally tall horse with long legs, powerful legs, a toned back and a tail that arched, to show my nature. That nature, that I always had since I was little, was pride. I am a proud horse and confident, but I'm not full of myself. There's no point in doing that. I want to insure I could use my rare shifting form to show off and gain for myself but I don't, instead I'm out here in the plains of the earth, looking after nature and protecting those animals and my animal types kind. Catching horses out here to ride is a common thing, no one had caught me yet, with my human side I can easily work out how to avoid them .

However, when the catch or try to catch the other horses I help lead the away or at them out of the pen. Actually that's what I happen to be doing now. I was standing on top of the hill, looking down on the trailers that had my herd trapped inside. I decided to be subtle and careful, but also to make sure that the human that I'm here.

Rearing up on my back legs, I let out a high pitched neigh. The humans looked around for the source of my cry but got distracted again, when my herd replied with their own calls. So once again, I reared up and repeated my call. This time the human look right at me and I saw a few of the drop their mouths open in shock. Like I said I'm not full of myself, but I know that I'm quite something to look at.

Plunging forward, I galloped down the hill with strong, definite strides putting on a show. When I reach the bottom, I skidded to a stop, while rearing up once
again. This seemed to snap the humans out of their trance, as they all lunged forward to grab the rope, head collars and lassos, they started to creep forward, while I watch them with a bored expression. Just as they were almost close enough to catch me. I turned and sprung away, and they followed, this continued all the way up the hill, then when I got to the top I turned around to look at them and they were all still following me. I ran over the hill, then cantered quietly round the other side of the hill, so they could not see me. Then slowly emerged back where the trailers were. Walking up to the trailers, so of the colts and younger ones nickered at me, but when I shook my head they stopped and stayed quiet.

I walked up to the latch on the cage, then very carefully pushed it up with my nose. I did the same with the bottom one, then used my shoulder to push the gate open. Gesturing to the right of me, I told them to go away from the humans and stay together. They did as I said and all trotted of in the other direction, while I stood there waiting for the humans to get back. After about an hour, they return and to their shock found the horses missing, apart from the one that is. The one that had sent them on a goose chance, only to come here and somehow get her herd back and stayed until they returned. I started laughing in my head, though I wouldn't be laughing if I was them however, I am not them so that doesn't matter now does it .

Teasing them slightly, I stuck one front knee out straight, while bending the other one in a bowing position. Then looked at them and then snorted whirled around an sped off in the direction that my herd went.

Haha humans they are so easy to fool around with.
