The Sting of Life

The young colt staggered while trying to get up from the cold cave ground, ears ringing and vision extremely blurred. In front of him, two figures, in a protective stance, facing forward. He rubbed his eyes, trying to see what they were facing. What he saw was a large, menacing silhouette, directly facing them. Suddenly, two red dots flashed on the shadowy figure, making him gasp.

"We need to get him out of here, now" said one of figures. Soon after, a large, booming voice echoed through and shook the entire cave.

"You shall not leave this place alive" boomed the voice. Quickly, the two figures reacted. The colt was suddenly enveloped in a bright aura. Whats going on? he thought. Before he could speak, he was forcefully thrust backwards and straight out of the cave.

Suddenly, a large, white, blinding light shined out of the cave, filling his sight. Then, he fell unconscious.
