"Next up, Angel, being jumped by Alissa, a 16 year old young lady." Came roaring over the speaker. Angel trotted out and came to the first jump. "Woa there Angel, lets not be to hasty." Reassured Alissa, she patted angel on the neck and looked ahead to the first jump. "Alright.. Are you ready girl?" She asked, looking down to her lowered head and awaited the signal. Angel shook her mane and snorted, flinging her head in a downward jerk. Alissa clicked her tongue and clicked her heels on Angels sides. Angel whinnied and kicked off, hurdling toward the first jump. When she got there, she lifted her front legs in the air and kicked off with her hocks, causing her body to go flying over the jump. She came down hard on the dirt and grunted with the landing. Alissa grunted with her, but still carried on. Angel cantered to the next jump and almost glided. She flew gracefully, causing a burst of pride in Jay, her owner's dad. Jay stood up, and clapped his hand together, almost tearing up. Alissa patted Angel on the neck as she neared the next jump. Now this one was a double-jump. Something Alissa hadn't noticed when they did the walk through. She gasped, but remained confident in Angel that she could accomplish. Alissa closed her eyes tight as she felt Angel try and pull away, knowing that she didn't know what it was. She jumped anyway, flying over it, and almost clearing. Her front leg touched the top of the jump, making her unstable, her front end went down and her other end didn't have anywhere to go but up. She came down hard, making Alissa fall, and Angel fell too. Alissa skid on the ground, but didn't move her arms or legs. She lay motionless on the floor of the arena. Angel twisted around and came down hard on the ground like a fish out of water. Both lay motionless. Jay yelled and ran to Alissa. He picked her up and ordered the stable boy to get Angel out of there. He took Alissa to the hospital as the stable boy did as he was told.
