The chestnut mare is still for a little, catching her breath before dark eyes glance around. She's in a box... a cell even but although its made of stone, it looks old, maybe even weak. She inspects it carefully, just managing to turn around and gave it a experimental kick. Hearing it crack she glanced back, progress... maybe. She attempts to buck to kick the wall with both back feet but there's not enough room in here, so she is forced to kick out at the wall with only one foot at a time.
It's slow going but eventually she find her freedom, at least she thinks it's freedom, or a sort at least. She follows the hall, a brick built monstrosity as it divides into two paths. Left or right. From what she has learnt this is probably another trap so she doubts it really matters which way she goes. At total random she turns right, following the stone corridor until it once more splits into different routes. That when it dawns on her, this is a maze. Although she's not foolish enough to think all she has to do is fine her way out, not if the rest of this nightmare is to go by.
She moves cautiously, picking paths at random, its not like she has a map or anything to show her the way out. She pauses when she picks up the sound of movement ahead, the sound of heavy breathing. Its too dark to see ahead, something she is sure is deliberate. She inches closer a single step at a time, her breathing becoming choppy against her will as slowly the beast came into view. Her eyes widen as she would need to get past this monster, just as it charged forward towards here. She whirl and took off, only stopping when she realise it was no longer chasing her.
Retracing her steps she found the creature chained. That was why it hadn't followed her, it couldn't. Still though, how was she get past it. She might be able to squeeze past it but it would be far far too close for comfort. Her frame straightened when she heard a chilling noise from behind her. A chilling growl caused her to turn her head, eyes wide as she took in the sight of what looked like a giant wolf, it wasn't a normal wolf, if the size of it didn't give that away then the glowing red eyes and huge claws on it front paws definitely did.
Worse of two evils and all that she bolted forward, hooves scrabbling to get round the corner as the monster reached for her, catching her side she hissed through the pain as she heard the two beast crash into each other. Continuing forward she darting down several different paths before stopping, her breath coming out in ragged pants. Holding her breath she listened carefully, she didn't detect any noise and eventually had to stop holding her breath. Looking around she wondered if her eyes were playing tricks on her, was that light? Cautiously she moved towards, checking all around her as she found... well she wasn't too sure what it was, but it resembled home. Suddenly hearing a dragging chain she decided what ever came next was better than a monster. She dove through the weird light that gave a sight of home. Hoping that this little game of his was over.
