      The Sea Pony - Paula Harrison

      Chapter One

      Surprise Visitors

      Grace ran down the golden beach, her brown eyes sparkling with excitement. Sea ponies were leaping and galloping in the waves. Water drops glittered on their smooth white coats. Their brightly colored tails and manes gleamed in the sunshine.

      Grace stopped at the water’s edge, feeling the warm sand under her feet and the waves lapping at her toes. A lighthouse with white and orange stripes towered on the clifftop behind her. Palm trees swayed gently in the breeze. Farther along the bay was a cluster of colorful houses. This was Cala Sands, the village where Grace lived.

      Every day Grace’s cousins sailed out of the harbor on their fishing boat. Grace went with them to catch fish to sell at the market. She loved sailing, but she loved coming to the beach to see the ponies even more!

      The ponies jumped high, splashing one another with their hooves. They were beautiful creatures with bright patterns across their manes and tails. Grace’s favorite sea pony had a rainbow pattern that gleamed every time she sprang into the air. She looked a little younger than the other ponies and she was full of energy. All the sea ponies could jump, but this pony sprang higher than all the others!

      Kicking off her sandals, Grace ran into the shallows and waded out to where the water got deeper. The sea ponies neighed happily when they saw her. The one with the rainbow tail flicked water into the air with her nose, as if she wanted Grace to come and play.

      Grace grinned and splashed water back with her hands. Being friends with the sea ponies was the best thing about living in Cala Sands.

      There were lots of magical creatures in the Kingdom of Arramia—sky unicorns, dragons, and firebirds—but she was sure none of them were as wonderful as the sea ponies! They had the power to bring peace to the waves by using special movements that looked almost like a dance. Grace had seen them calm the stormy sea many times to help the fishing boats.

      She dived under the surface without worrying about her wet shorts and top. The water was warm and everything would dry quickly in the sun afterward. Little silver fish darted through the turquoise water. Pink shells gleamed among the pebbles on the ocean floor.

      The waves rocked Grace gently as she bobbed back to the surface.

      The rainbow sea pony flicked her tail and dived under the water before popping up a little farther away. Grace laughed and tried to catch up with her. Grace was a strong swimmer, but she knew she could never be as good as the sea ponies! They moved so gracefully through the water. The rainbow pony jumped high and soon all the sea ponies were leaping and splashing too.

      Suddenly a shadow fell across the water and blocked out the sunshine. The sea ponies neighed as if they were talking to one another. Then they dived under the waves and swam out to sea.

      Don’t go! called Grace, but the sea ponies were already far away.

      Swimming back to the beach, she climbed on to the sand and squeezed the water out of her curly black hair. She glanced at the sky, expecting to see a rain cloud blocking out the sun. Instead she saw a creature zooming toward the beach.

      As it got closer, Grace saw that it was actually two creatures. From a distance, the smaller one looked like
