A Night Ride
They arrived at Malverne Manor, where thee old maids came to greet them.
Their names were Maid Marie, Maid Masie and Maid Mala. "I'm not impressed," whispered Ellie to Tim.
Mum and Dad had said it would be quite classy, classier then the other one at least but Ellie knew it wasn't because of the old house that they used to live in that they'd moved. Actually the old house was much nicer and cleaner than this old dump it was because of something else that they'd moved. Ellie suspected it might have been something to do with the old neighbourhood, Dad had never liked it there and he had good reason not to. In some ways Ellie was quite happy to get away but in others she wasn't. When the phone had come from Dad's solicitor that his great uncle Martin had left this house for him in his will dad jumped at the prospect of living in a grand manor.
Each maid led them to their rooms. Ellie followed Maid Masie, the youngest and prettiest to her room. As Masielaft, Ellie slumped onto the four poster and looked around. The unpacking had already been undone and Ellie's night dress was laid nice and neatly on the bed. She yawned, it was quite late, the moon was shining on the balcony sending little shapes dancing on the wall.
Ellie switched off the light, tucked into bed and almost suddenly fell asleep.
TUNG! TUNG! TUNG! "Whats that," she yawned as she was awoken from her sleep. "It must be the old clock downstairs, its midnight." Sahe shivered slightly as an ice cold breeze swept the room. The door to the balcony was open, she got up to close the window her nightdress trailinng behind her.
The moon glistened in the deep black sky, but it wasn't the only light, Ellie looked carefully, there was something on the fields but she wasn't sure what. It was a figure silhouetted among the rays of moonlight. He was holding a flower and gazing at the moon.
His body was milky white, he had along white beard and wore a cowboy hhat his milky white horse was bent down doing something but Ellie wasn't sure what.
Ellie watched with awe as he jumped onto the horse almost suddenly and the horse began runningg as fast as the wind.
They galloped through the many fields and every once or twice he'd pull out a sword and begin fighting something invisible swaying the sword here and there after a while he stopped, pulled the horses rein and the horse lifted from the ground, wings sprouted from its back and soared towards the moon.
TBC....
