Chapter 10

COLTS HAVE GOT TO GROW UP

AS PAUL and Maureen stood inside the big corral, looking at Misty, they knew she was the finest-blooded foal in the world. Oh, the beauty of her! She was neither silver nor gold. She was both. And she had a funny white blaze that started down the left side of her face, then did a right-about and covered her whole muzzle. It gave her a look of wonderment and surprise. Like her mother she, too, wore a white map of the United States on her withers, but the outlines were softer and blended into the gold of her body.

They could have gazed at her forever, exclaiming over her gold eyelashes, her pink underlip, her funny knobby knees, her short flappy tail, the furry insides of her ears. But suddenly Paul was aware of an uneasy feeling, as though someone were eying him. Then he felt a hot breath on the back of his neck. Slowly he turned his head and came face to face with the Pied Piper.
