The rhythm of hooves against shifting sand changed. Another set of four added to the whirling drums and sped up the wild pace to something that made the heart pound and the blood boil from the rush of insane delight. An image flickered between the horse and his dragon, a vision of a black unicorn hurrying after them and shouting something inaudible to the dust they stirred up. Lace laughed aloud and shook the neck in excitement as he shortened the gait just a little, enough to slow the pace so that the girl could inch up along side him.

Even in the frantic chase, something about the white-maned apparition tickled a feeling of familiarity with the stallion. It wasn't that he knew her, or even had seen her before. He had met his fair share of mares in his days, but never a black one with white mane, not in the hues this one sported at least. She blended in much too well with the darkness and the speed at which they ran was too great for him to pick out any details, but even so he couldn't get away from the feeling that he should know who she was.

A glance over a tree-marred shoulder was followed by a grin as Lace noticed how she began to catch up. His breaths was starting to become more ragged, the limit to his depleted endurance would soon be reached - but he didn't want to stop. It felt much too good to run, bury the hooves deep into the grains of the beach and heave onwards, ever onwards as far as the legs could carry him.

Sooner or later it would have to end though. Before long his balance would falter, a wrong step might send him crashing down on the ground with limbs and gleaming tassels jumbled and breaking... Would she overtake him before that happened? Was she fast enough, strong enough, bullheaded enough to make that final push?

If she did he would stop, the crafter decided. If she overtook him at his fastest pace he would hear what she was shouting about, answer any question she might ever think up - it would be her price and a gift for allowing him to enjoy the thrill of the chase. And so he flicked the tail teasingly towards her and heaved forward once more, pushing the body to the limit of its abilities - not caring if it ended up breaking in the process.
