Final Chapter
Ichabod immediatly realized what was going on, and spurred Gunpowder to the fastest gallop possible. Down the rutted dirt road they flew, trying to escape the woods, to reach the safety of the hallowed ground of the church at the edge of the woods. Though Gunpowder had been bred to perfection, he could not escape the horse behind him. In fact, the creature behind him was gaining, slowly but surely. Soon, Ichabod knew, he was going to be caught by the Devil of Sleepy Hollow, and the only escape was to leave the woods. Through the darkened forest, charging blindly, heedlessly ahead, just wanting to escape the Horseman. But he could not. Soon, the Horseman hove into view, and the legends hadn't even come close to describing the horror of him. The horse he rode on was a deep, coal black, but the hooves were wreathed in flame. The eyes glittered like the fires of hell. It was larger than any other horse Ichabod had ever seen. Then, the beast snorted, and not only ash but fire as well emerged from its nostrils. The creature that rode it was no less terrifying. In a set of chainmail and a black, flowing cape, bent low over the horse was the Horseman. The Jack-O-Lantern was tucked under his right arm, glowing from within in a way a candle could never manage. The place where the head should have been was a gaping black hole. When Ichabod saw this, he lost all control, and pushed Gunpowder more than he should have. But, just as it seemed they should have been caught, they caught sight of the church. Without thinking, Ichabod slowed. This was his only mistake. He realized what happened and sprang ahead, but it was too late. As Gunpowder leapt over the ravine between the road and the church, the horsemanthrew his "head" at him. It struck him in the side of the temple, sending him flying back over Gunpowder, to land on the side of the ravine with the Horseman. With a deft stroke, he severed Ichabod's head, than vanished into the darkness. On the other side, Gunpowder waited for his master who would never return. Soon, the villagers came through looking for Ichabod. They found his body, but never his head. However, in the very back of the crowd, "Brom Bones" sat with an evil smile, holding Katrina to his side...
Happy Halloween everyone, and enjoy...until next time
