Red and Seabiscuit

RED
cheap, rare skilled
a pushover, but tautly muscled
a loser, but a seeker of fight
Red's power is coming to light
~Jaylyn

Red is chosen to tame this horse. After being watched like a hawk and its prey, Red's lawless spirit and ruthless determination has showed that he can do anything. Red waits in front of the stall unsure of what to do, but still not letting fear get the best of him. All he can hear is the shrieks coming from Seabiscuit just wanting to be free. CRASH! Seabiscuit stands  and his his hind legs and hits the side of the old, wooden stable. A wave of courage takes over Red. Slowly  creeping open the door, trying not to frighten the horse, Red steps foot into the dark eerie stable. Seabiscuit jumps showing Red he is not welcome. But Red doesn't back down. Red holds an apple in his extended arm, signalling it is okay to eat. Still frightened, the Red. Red whispers calmly, "It's going to be alright." For the first time, Seabiscuit shows trust because Red has shown commitment. ~Lunden

SEABISCUIT
blunt, coarse
a loser, but stubborn
an enemy, but a friend
Seabiscuit has found a friend
