Oh. man.

If Seth had a guardian angel, there's no doubt that he (or she) was on a coffee break when this fiasco decided to unwind. After being almost run over by Adhara on her lunatic of a horse, he realised that Spyro, the drippy thing that he was, was actucally chasing the horse. Jesus Christ, could this morning get any worse? Probably not, because then he'd have to be dead, just to top this current one.

Seth wasn't a horse fan, really. He didn't know too much about their behaviour, what spooked them, what made them tick, so forth and so on. However, bucking and pigrooting? Well, yeah, he knew that was bad. He wasn't even sure if Addi could hold her own in that, well, strange position. Heck, what does one do in these type of situations? Step one, get the dog inside the house! he thought, proud of his brain for coming up with that solution, as obvious as it would seem.

Sticking two fingers in his mouth, he let out a loud whistle, really, really, really hoping that it wouldn't cause Minstrel to go even more ape-shit and just kill Addi. That would be just the 'perfect' end to his life, because her parents would kill him (and the dog). Spyro skidded to a halt when he heard the whistle, darting around to try and see who called him. Seeing Seth, who was patting his thigh and trying to sweet-talk him into coming over, he glanced between him and the horse, as if trying to decide which one would provide better entertainment. Overall, it was Seth that wins, because the boy might give him some food. He likes food.

Spyro turned and trotted back to Seth, and all seemed well, in Seth's head. Addi would swing back up on her horse, give a damn good reason for why the heck she�s out on horseback at five in the morning, he and Spyro would go inside and share some toast. It�s all so very good. Until Spyro has to give one last bark and a slight lunge at the horse when they pass each other. Seth's near going into hyperventilating mood from this. Please don�t let her fall, please don�t let her fall, please don�t let her die!
