Thunder and Lightning by Keith G. Laufenberg

When I set up the submission guidelines for this series of short stories, I wrote that the submitted stories could be of any genre – “even Westerns!” Yet, as you can probably guess from the exclamation mark, I never really expected anyone to send in a Western, as they seem to have fallen out of fashion since the 70s. Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised when Keith G. Laufenberg submitted Thunder and Lightning. It’s a wonderful and very spiritual story, which explicitly conveys the extremely different cultures of the Native Americans and the US army during the Indian Wars in the 1870s, particularly with regards to how they treated horses…

An extract from the story:

Little Bear had just climbed upon Warrior’s back when the big stallion that Little Wolf was still speaking softly to, as he rubbed his flanks, spooked and took off in a flash, bucking and kicking and taking the entire herd stampeding after him.

Black Eagle nodded at Little Bear and they both shrugged, as they told their horses to go after Little Wolf and the bucking bronco, for the chase was on.
