Penny

Penny: the PegacornBy:Mackenzie Middlebrooks

Penny is a bay thoroughbred or so everyone thinks. She tried being a racehorse, but wasnt any good at it because she is not a thoroughbred. She has only revealed her secret to me. Shes really a pegacorn or a unicorn with wings. When you believe she is a pegacorn you can see that plus you can see she is a different color every time you see her.

Pennys horn and wings are invisible. Before I knew she was a pegacorn I could not see her horn and wings. Now I can see them very clearly.

I came to know Penny was a pegacorn when I was feeding all the horses. I was in the feed room getting some grain when Penny said, Mmmm I cant wait for my grain. I came out of the feed room and jokingly said, Did you say something? Then Penny said, No, I mean neigh. At that moment I saw a horn and two wings pop up, and I realized Penny was a pegacorn.

I know you dont believe me ,but Penny and I go for rides all the time. We fly high in the sky. The trees part as we go by. Sometimes Penny turns things into cute puppies. She even gave me a cute little husky.

Penny can make anything appear or disappear. So sometimes when I really need money I go to her and she always gives me at least $100. She only gives you money if its an emergency , so you cant get it every day unless youre really unlucky.

I dont know how in the world she became a pegacorn. I did some research on her and her mom, Soft Stuff, and her dad Charlie Barley. They were both regular horses.

Charlie Barley

I have heard that sometimes they mess up the blood lines. One of her parents could have very well been a pegacorn! That will always remain a mystery though.

Pennys horn is the biggest part of believing she is a pegacorn. If you cant see it, its very hard to believe even when you look at pictures. It does not matter though because I know its true.

I have always wanted to see a horse with wings and a horn, so I could not believe it when I finally did. Especially since that horse was at my house. I felt her wings and I brushed her. Then when I was done she said Sit on my wing. I sat on her wing as she flapped it up and down like a bucking bull. It was so much fun.

The next thing I did was ask if we could go on a ride. She said Yes if you dont mind going bareback, I was hesitant but got on anyway, and we went for quite a ride. She soared high in the sky. On a regular horse being bareback and flying high in the sky I would have fallen off, but I guess her magic held me on.

While I was in the air my mom was wondering what was in the air. Later, she decided it was the mist. She had heard of the mist from The Lost Hero . The mist makes mortals mix things up she thought to herself.

When I landed my mom asked me if I saw what was in the sky. I told her it was me. I was riding Penny. I also told her how Penny was a unicorn and she had wings. She asked why I was all of a sudden lying. I told her I wasnt lying. She told me to prove it at riding lessons or I was grounded.

At lessons Penny and I flew high in the sky. My mom said she wouldnt ground me, but she knew I had done something special. I did not do anything special, but I did not argue.

Dedicated to the ones who believe ! Still today no one believes me, but I go riding on Penny everyday. I guess everyone thinks pegacorns are fake. Penny and I dont care. We have fun just the way things are. We find joy in the mist.
