Kaela Markey

Story:
Kaela had underestimated the entire leg of this contest. Her horses, her gear, the actual driving of a horse, not to mention two, and the painful feeling of getting wrapped in the face with a huge Alfkak tail. Oh, did she mention that she had no tricking clue on how to drive horses? Especially in a rickety blue wooden chariot that had been slapped together last minute? And that chariot was built for a normal horse, not a pair of insanely powerful and giant Alfkaks? And those giant powerful horses hated each other? The mare was attempting to kill the stallion, who for once in his life wasn't being vain and was cowering from the big bay.
Yeah. This was disaster.
As the trio veered around another pillar, the mare crowhopped and kicked out her hind legs, missing the chariot by inches. She whinnied angrily and tossed her head. Kaela jerked forwards, determined too hold onto the reins. With a harsh whap, she was hit in the face with a very long and painfully thick black tail. Her face stung as she winced in pain. Standing back up, she regained control over the weaving chariot and forced the mare to listen. With an angry snort, the mare swapped leads. Trench tossed his head and snorted, flying up into a lead change as well. With 8 legs moving in unison, the trio galloped into the next turn.
"Whoa, whoa, easy now, whoa," Kaela shouted , attempting to stay calm but miserably failing. The horses flicked their ears back and kept galloping, swishing their tails. Kaela gulped and tightened her reins as they lurched around another marble column. The left wheel of the chariot left the ground, unsteading Kaela. The unbalanced weight caused the mare to lurch ahead, bringing the chariot back onto the ground with a heart-jarring thud. The wheel skipped a couple of times before getting a grip. In the blue chariot, Kaela was looking extremely pale.
Kaela gulped and balanced herself again. She wished she had thought to put some sort of back on the cavorting chariot cart. As the two horses lunged forwards, she clutched the front of the chariot for dear life. She knew she had to stay on course though and eventually loosened her death grip. She pulled back on the reins and shouted out at the pair of ticked-off Alfkaks. They both flicked their ears back, knowing that the person behind them was now just as posses as both of them were. Neither of them wanted to risk making it worse. They both slowed to a decent-paced canter. The mare angrily took one more jab at Trench and then settled for pining her ears. The slightly smaller black sabino stallion sighed with relief and framed up nicely.
As Kaela and her two equines passed the judges box, they didn't quite possess the aura of cool determination and controlled power that she had wanted to present 5 minutes earlier. She was however proud of the two horses, who had finally given up their childish actions for once and were powering through the thick sand. As she turned into the next set of obstacles, she whooped once in her adrenaline -filled joy and lifted a hand to the skies, almost in tribute to the ancient gods themselves.
