Moon continued to ride avoiding the slayers using rarely used trails. she knew she had to reach the border before Bain reached Letalis lands. If anyone could turn him back she thought it might be her given their past.
"Come on Lady bird please just a bit faster lives depend on us"
Patting the horse on the neck she smiles as she feels the horse shift its stride.
"Thank you, my friend you will be rewarded when we return"
Tightening her grip on the reins she kicks the horse jumping a fallen tree on the trail. Moon is jarred in the saddle when the beast hits ground barely keeping herself in the saddle. Spurring the horse on hooves pounding the trail as she rides. Startled by a slayer on the trail barring her way Moon grins and kicks the horse bracing herself. With a deadening thud, her horse power drives the Slayer sending him off into the thick brush. Patting the horse in praise she glances down seeing blood running down the horse's leg to its pounding hooves. Startled she pulls back on the reins the horse rears twisting in mid air and landing on its side sliding in the loose leaves of the forest floor. Moon opens her eyes and reaches for her head which is wet with blood. Frantically looking for her mount she see's her limping and grazing nearby.
"How long was I out? Damn, I need to keep moving".
Getting to her feet she checks Lady birds leg. She pats her old friend and sends her off the leg is too injured to continue she will have to go on foot from here.

Just for fun.
This is an invitation to other writers to join in. A story is always better if you get the other side of it.
So maybe you are you a member of The Regent's annoying vampire clan. Why have you brought this trouble to your Queen's door?
Or are you one of the slayers who have broken the pact and now crossed over into forbidden land. Who within the Regent's walls has wronged you, that you would risk death to hunt down?
Or are you just someone else...
If you would like to join in, here is how it works.
Write your side of the story on your own blog, include the link to my stories and leave the link to yours in the comments below.
Include 'A 2 sided story' in your title and use the tag 'a-2sidedstory'. That way all the stories will be kept together.
If you like someone else's addition continue on from theirs. ( add their link to your story and leave the link to your in their comments)
My hope the story will grow like a tree. It may end up going in many different directions and we might end up writing parallel stories. That is actually interesting and exciting. (Sliding Doors).
Anyway have fun and look forward to reading your 'side' of the story.
