War horse

For the Novel Study Room 4 is doing, we had to do a 100 word challenge about the first 3 chapters in a characters perspective. I chose Joey the horse that the book's about.

The year is 1914.  Today I left my mother and reluctantly went with a strange man.  He pulled me and put me into a farm cart. The weathers pleasant and sometimes frosty. My home is a large farm in the country. I live with  Albert, his parents and Zoey another  horse. My name is Joey.  My life at the farm has been hard work called ploughing but I’m fine as long as Zoey is beside me.  One day Albert's  Dad came running screaming “It’s the war”.  One day Albert’s Dad came, took me away, and sold me to the cavalry.

The Gigantic Cream Egg

This weeks prompt was about a cream egg. Do you think my Story's good? I was trying to think carefully about using better words. Here is the picture of it.

The gigantic egg fell crash on the concrete. The tiny people ran as fast as they could to safety. The road workers got called and came immediately.  The creamy filling was flooding out really fast! Cones started to come out of the big, black truck. Three of the red and white cones when around the big blob of creamy mixture. It started coming out faster and faster. They put a wall around it and connected it to 8 horse and the horses pulled the wall. The started to pull it away then… Suddenly the egg slid out of the wall.
