"NOW!" Cordie proclaimed as her horse took off. The boy went and messed with David's equipment, loosening the saddle for the horse and spooking it, making it run too quickly.

David was startled! "Woah there!" he exclaimed. It was then that David demonstrated why - despite his friendly exterior and strong moral compass - most animals and a more than few people where afraid of him. "I said [b]stop[/b]." His voice, though mild, boomed throughout the field. In terms of sheer physical power, David was the tactical equivalent to several nuclear missiles; this applied to his voice as well.

Just as the horse ran out of fear, it similarly stopped out of [i]terror[/i]. David sighed, then grinned at Cordie while lifting his shield and lance to anticipate her charge. "Pretty sneaky, milady. Woulda worked too, if I wasn't a lot scarier than a ghost."
