Fastest Hooves On The Planet

Kyren was in an amicable spirit, his body moved with a relaxed gait but there was hidden mirth dancing in his eyes.  Shorty wanted a race and seemed pretty determined to prove he wasn’t the slowest.  Kyren did love to run of course and it was fun to tease Oscar.  There was no way this wouldn’t be fun.  If ol’ cagey Oscar somehow managed to win the race well, that’d be fine but Kyren had no intention of letting him win.  The best prize had to be seeing Oscar grump more.  Just thinking of it had a grin on his face.  No one more entertaining to pick on than your best friends.

He paused where Oscar found a spot he liked. “How to race? Sure.  It’s where I keep everyone else behind me.” A soft snort of indignation, “I only cheat if I need to.”  Let Oscar decide if that meant he really would cheat or not.  Kyren had no plans to upset a perfectly good race regardless.

“Fastest that ever lived huh?” Kyren mused the words over as he eyed the distance to the lake. “I figure the winner is going to have more racing to do in the herd as some others might think they are faster, ya know?”  What would the winner get?  “A prize? Hmm.. “ A grin came to the reindeer after a moment, “Winner is owed a favor.  Gotta pay up whenever asked, whatever asked.”

It was a great idea. So great that Kyren added, "Ready, set, go"  Kyren charged forward on the word go.  It wasn't cheating to make sure Oscar was going to respond fast, right?
