Las Pegasus: A Short Story

Great Essays
A wagon surrounded by a light purple aura drove itself on the path out of Las Pegasus. The wagon was currently under a spell, it was to stay on the path until it got to Ghastly Gorge.

The pony inside was asleep, she was exhausted from her recent performance. Las Pegasus was not favorable to her. She had to compete with other acts, and since most of the other acts were more skilled with magic then her. She didn’t make much money, she was lucky to enough to earn enough to fill her belly for a meal or so.
However, she didn’t have enough to get train tickets to her location Baltimare, so she planned to use the river to ride there.

It was completely insane, but she was very desperate for money.

It was passing by a tiny section of a forest. When a very hungry chimera was observing it from inside the forest.

The chimera was a combination of a buck, a komodo dragon, and a puma. It had a puma’s torso and legs, a deer’s hindquarters, and the komodo dragon’s feet and tail. Out of the torso of the chimera, were necks and heads of each respective animal.

“Well, well” whispered the Puma, “It looks like our next meal is rolling away.”

“What do you suppose a wagon is doing out here, alone at night?” asked the Deer

“Does it really matter?” asked the Komodo Dragon

“I guess not” answered the deer “But that wagon is being pulled by magic, so it’s possible the pony inside is asleep. So if we sneak up…”

Suddenly the chimera bolted out of the forest. “What did I just say you guys?!” The Deer angrily

    (A playful writing influenced by A. A. Milne’s ‘Winnie the Pooh and Beatrix Potter’ Stories) I gaze from my window to see a slight rustle in the conifers, picking up my binoculars with curiosity I notice a wood pigeon fluttering about; my imagination gets the better of me, thoughts rolled into a story.

Bring it up here--quickly” Jillian called to her brother in a voice barely louder than a whisper.…
