Spirit And Rain Horses Novels & Stories

The atmosphere around them was ambiguous, sweet, and also unbelievable. - Clatter, clatter, clatter! The powerful sound of horse hooves caught Harmonia’s attention at this moment. The staff brought Firefly over. Firefly’s spirits visibly improved, and it raised its head high, looking proud as if it was saying, “I am a Ferghana horse and I am proud.” Dimas then inquired about Firefly’s recent condition. The staff immediately said that after the arrival of Spicy Rabbit, Firefly became very proud every day. Even when it arrived at the temporary stable, it did not forget to open the stable door every day and play mind games with them.

I question as I gesture to the horses. “Yes, this one is Thunder, and you’re riding Champagne,” he laughs. “I didn’t name them though. They already had these names when I purchased them. I didn’t see the point in changing them.” He shrugs and we continue to ride in a comfortable silence.

I mumbled, more to myself than him, “why is there a fog above the river?” The stableboy that took the reins of our horses giggled suddenly, “That’s the water spirit, she visits every night in the form of the faint cloud you see there. That’s how she keeps us safe.” Malric scoffed mockingly and I glared at him. He tossed a coin at the young stableboy as we strolled into the shabby lobby. “Goddess, this place reeks!” He remarked grimly. A strong acrid smell of rotten eggs polluted the atmosphere and although I was suffering from it too, I couldn’t help but enjoy seeing Malric’s frustration.

Today, I walked as a warrior molded by pain and fire. Our songs rose as we marched. Boots crushed stone, paws thudded on soil, and the steady drumming of hooves echoed beside us. Dozens of horses marched with us, their coats shining under the morning sun. Their nostrils flared, hooves striking the earth in synchronized rhythm, as if they too understood the gravity of the journey. Riders sat tall, gripping reins with practiced hands, their eyes hard with resolve. Banners tied to saddles fluttered in the wind—red and silver, the colors of Bloodfang.

I got this hunch that he'd become aware of my gaze and was about to return it, so I looked away immediately. "Are you aware that the rainbow is just an illusion?" He asked turning to me, with that cute smile still playing on his lips. "Huh?" "The rainbow," he repeated, pointing towards it "it's an illusion cast on the sky due to the reflection of light" "Really" I said. He scoffed and silence reigned once again. I figured it was now time to part ways before he begins to grow on me. "I'm about to go in now," I said reluctantly "Which hospital building do you stay?" I grabbed the arms of his wheelchair.

Jesse muttered, checking the clip on a silver-bladed knife. “I knew you guys were keeping secrets from me,” Rain huffed, jogging to catch up as we moved toward the edge of the yard. “What else is on the list? Let me guess—creepy swamp ghosts, banshee twins, and that one time I accidentally summoned the chicken spirit.” “That wasn’t a spirit,” Matt called from inside. “It was just an actual angry chicken.” “It spoke Latin!” “It clucked, Rain!” “Same thing!” Colby held up a hand. “Focus. We’re not dealing with poultry. Lia, anything?”

A team was moving fast between Crow City and Nightingale City. The Spirit Cage was a retro world. So, there were no high-tech vehicles that existed in the real world, but only the most primitive means of transport. The cart was pulled by a kind of animal named the Foal Beast. It was docile, strong, and fast. Once tamed, it would be very obedient. David was in one of the carriages. With his image and strength, he passed the screening easily.

I am quite surprised that he planned this for us. “Sergio, how did you organise this in a short time? Do you know how to ride a horse?” “There is a lot that you don’t know about me, baby girl. Are you ready to take Spirit for a tour?” He softly rubs both the horses’ backs. I step closer to them and interact with Spirit, rubbing her face. “I think we are ready, right Spirit,” I hug the horse around its neck and rest my face almost on its face. It moves around, snarling softly, enjoying the little rubs I give it around its neck.

As the rain picked up, she mounted her horse and rode off swiftly into the night, disappearing like a wraith just before the skies began to weep harder. --- Far away, deep in the shadowed woods of Upland, the same rain danced across the dense foliage. Wind hissed through the trees, clashing with the hoots of owls and chirps of drenched crickets, creating a cacophony that felt more like protest than song. Amidst the wilderness, a cabin sat hidden—low, squat, and cloaked in the tangled embrace of vines and brush. The only sign of life was a white horse tethered in the shadows, calmly chewing at the dripping undergrowth.

Sleep came to me in a matter of a minute, and I slept without any nightmares after a long time. When I awoke the next morning, the sky was cast with heavy dark clouds. I didn’t waste any time in getting ready and rushed out of the house. The cold breeze was slowly growing aggressive as it blew past me. I rushed through the forest as the scattered clouds gathered around, darkening the sky further. I could hear loud rumbles nearing gradually. It will rain really soon. But I had reached the garden and might just make it to the stable before it starts to pour. The horses were peaking out of the stable as the sky started to rumble aggressively. They stared with curiosity as I ran across the field
