CHAMPAGNE

Champagne the Wonder Horse lived with little Tommy Crandall in a big white house on a farm. Champagne had fresh grass to eat everyday, a field to run in, and a stall to sleep in. He was very happy, but he wanted more than anything to be able to fly like a bird.
"You're a horse. Be happy with that," said Tommy. He gave him a crisp red apple, and scratched his ears. Tommy was very wise.
The Devil hated Tommy because he was the bestest little boy ever. So, one night the Devil whispered into Champagne's ear and took over his feeble mind. Champagne bit off the hose from a propane tank, and stuck it into a trash can near the house. He then trotted back to turn on the gas. A fire started in the trash can, which climbed up the side of the house. Soon, the entire house was ablaze.
Tommy was trapped inside. As he looked out the window hoping his friend, Champagne, would help him, he saw a terrible sight. A giant pair of black bat wings was growing out of Champagne's back. They cast an awful shadow on the barn. But as Champagne tried to fly away, the wings that simply were not made for a horse crumpled, and Champagne fell to the Earth, breaking two of his legs.
As the house was consumed by fire, Champagne helplessly watched his only friend suffering, and he was saddened by what he had done.
The last thing Tommy said was, "Silly old horse. You know you can't fly." He smiled at Champagne, and then he was gone.
There are a lot of morals to be learned from this tale, but I'll let you decide what they are.
