Bzzzzzzz... Bzzzzzzz... Bzzzzz. You frantically reach into your pocket and take out your phone, almost dropping it in the process.
"Where are you man? You're never late to-"
"Danny? Oh my god where are you? No, wait; doesn't matter. You need to go to Zimmerman's farm right now! And bring an empty pill bottle!"
"Okay, but-"
"Just do it! Ill explain everything when you get here." You hang up and pray he listens. Your phone is at 25% battery life, so you turn it off to stretch that out. The horse shifts a few steps, making you jump a bit.
The sound of a car parking and shutting off alerts you and you run to the end of the stall and look out. Danny, your coworker and good friend is stepping out of his sedan and looking around. You quickly turn your phone on and wait for his call. Zimmerman meets him and they shake hands. Words are shared and Zimmerman leaves a moment later. Bzzzzzz... You answer after only one ring.
"Okay, I'm here, what now?" He asks.
"Go into the stable." You reply. You watch as he approaches, growing more intimidating with each step. "Stop! He halts directly beside you. "Now turn...and stop!" He's facing you now, much to the curiosity of the paint horse. "Take out the pill bottle and open it. Put it on the ground." Under your eye, or, over it, he pops open the bottle and sets it down. You sprint over to it and climb inside. Just in time, too. The horse sniffing at the bottle blows you all the way to the bottom. You regain yourself and brace for what's next. "Now pick it up gently and look inside." The bottle is lifted away from the horse's hairy nose and you come face to face with the building sized face of your friend. He squints at you and his eyes go wide a moment later.
"What... happened to you? Wha..." He is lost for words. You two just stare at each other.
"I need you to take me to your house." You say calmly.
