The snowy foal

[>-{Apryl}->]

Sea air soon rushed into my face and around my body like a hug. I was getting closer, closer to a new chance, closer to a new life. For months I have been traveling to get here, and now I made it. I was now weak from my journey, for I have walked all the way from the Mystic forests to get here. The forest it no place for a foal to live, but I had no choice. My mother tried to find my father, I'm still unsure why but she really wanted to find him.

I moved my little body into a trot, using up what energy that I had. The sea air smell grew stronger as I made my way through the small forest that was close to the bay. Within a few minutes I was able to see the clear blue water of Dolphin Bay. I was here. I moved into a canter and made my way down the small hill that separated the forest and the beach. I slowed down to a walk as I started to walk onto the beach. My small hooves sunk into the almost white sand.

I started to walk closer to the water, which was far away. Within seconds I was only a hoof away from the water. I really wanted to just jump in the ocean, but because I have never seen so much water in my life before I was worried about what might be in there. I shoke my main, and just like that the fear left. I leapt into the ocean, the cool water splashed over my body. I started to go in deeper and deeper into the ocean. Soon the water came up to my shoulders. I giggled and laughed with myself as I played in the water.

I was getting tired, so slowly I left the water. I soon found a nice little spot under a large palm tree. Under the tree was a huge patch of soft grass. I walked over and laid down. I gave a content sigh and started to fall asleep.

A silver stallion trotted gracefully over the sandy beach, his hooves leaving clear prints behind him. Breathing in the fresh scent of the salty air, Tamara aimed a quick and playful buck to nobody but the empty space behind him and galloped off, tail streaming like silk behind him.

The spray of sea water splashed against his white pelt, droplets trickled off his back that would give anyone the impression that he was sparkling. The stallion let out a long, free whinny to the empty sky, shouting out his emotions - happy and wild.

A soft scent lingered in the air before him and Tamara quickly skidded to a halt. It belonged to another horse and had a baby sort of smell to it. He dropped his head to the floor, looking for any prints to go with it and soon enough he found the small round marks in the sand leading him away from the sea to a large palm tree.

Tamara quickly followed and found a white bundle lying against the bark. The stallion looked cautiosly around, looking for his mother but saw nobody. He turned back to the foal. He didn't want to wake him so he flopped down on the floor next to him, stretching his aching legs out in front, his head rested on the floor.

OOC: I must say that that foal has the cutest nose I've ever seen. She's adorable! ;D

As I lay there, I could here a whinny in the distance. Then everything was quite again. Just a that moment I was dreaming about a horse finding me. So that whinny must have come from a dream right? Instead back to the tree and went to sleep again. Within a few minutes, I could hear the sound of hooves walking in the sand. The sound was getting louder as the horse got closer. I closed my eyes even harder. I have had this dream before. Almost every week I have a dream of a horse coming to me, but why did it seem so real today?

I fought hard to go back to sleep but soon gave up. I opened my small brown orbs to see a mighty stallion resting next to me. Unsure what to do I put my muzzle next to his. I looked at every inch of him, almost trying to get him ingrained in my head. I haven't seen another horse for a while now. I soon began to wonder how long he has been he with me. I moved my muzzle to his neck then took a step back.

The filly seemed to be awake now as she moved her head closer to his. Tamara could feel her hot breath against his. Then she took a step back from him. "Don't be afraid little one. I am not here to harm you. Instead, I am here wondering why such a young and pretty filly is out here alone with no mother to see that she comes to no danger." He was very curious. Who would leave their foal out here in the middle of winter? Or had they lost each other? Tamara wondered.

The foal was small and looked fragile in the harsh winter. She was compleately white like himself except for her short fluffy tail and the tips of her ears and nose. "Tell me, why are you here alone?" He was worried for the young foal.

I looked at the great horse as he spoke to me. I bowed before him then looked at him. " My motehr was taken away by humans, and they left me. I came here hoping to find someone." I said. Just by looking at him, the stallion seemed like he was someone I could trust. " My names is Lilly, whom might you be?" I asked with my sweet voice.



{ooc} I know she is sooo cute!

Tamara felt sympathy for the young foal. He would be terribly upset if his own mother had been taken by humans. He shivered at the thought.

"I am Tamara," he said proudly, arching his strong neck. "Stallion of the Emerald Forest." He felt extreamely powerful at the thought of his new home. How he loved every inch of that place.

He turned his attention back to Lilly who seemed to feel quite safe around him. "Is there anyway I could help you and your mother reunite? If not, you are always welcome to stay with me."

OOC: Eek I just want to cuddle the picture

OOC: lol I just realised that I hadn't logged in to post that. I was wondering why I had to type in some code =]

[>-{Apryl}->]

{ooc} LOL I did that before and i was thinking to myself wow there alittle too strick with security XD

" A lovely name." I said to the stallion. I watched him as he raised his head in a regal manner. I heard him talk of his land, Emerald Forest. Never in my life had I heard of such a place. " Is your land nice?" I asked him. I was happy to be able to talk with someone, until he spoke of my mother. " The humans took my mother in this big thingy on the water. They got in the thing too and it floated away. It went to far for anyone to swim." I said quietly. I hated talking about what happened that day, that horrible day.

Slowly, I looked up to the stallion. Did I just hear him correctly? " Really, I can stay with you? I would be honored." I could feel myself getting back to my happy state again.

The stallion thought of his land back home with it's snowy branches and grass that seemed to glitter in the sun. "Yes, it is very nice and I think you will like it alot," he said with a grin.

The foal then spoke about her mother and Tamara felt his stomach twist as she spoke of her being taken away. "I'm so sorry she was taken away. If I could I would swim through the sea just to find her for you but I'm afraid I cannot do such a thing." He felt guilty talking about such a topic that seemed very sensitive to the little filly.

The filly seemed very excited to come with him to his land and the stallion smiled again, shaking his mane rid of the sand that had tangled there. "Yes, you may come with me and perhaps we should go now as I sense a blizzard coming," He looked up at the sky as grey cloud began to come rolling in.

I smiled, I couldn't wait to see what his landed looked like. And finally I had a place I could call home. I looked up to Tamara as he spoke again, which made me think. That was very sweet of him to saw something like that, yet in my heart I believe it was fate that took my mother from me. She hated me with all of her being, even though I tried to love her as much as I could. And on the day she was taken from me, she fought off the humans but then gave up. She then said to me, 'I get to have a better life now without you.' The words stuck to me on that day forth.

She wasn't the best mother on the planet, so I learned how to live without her. But still in my heart there was an empty spot, that's why I came here. To fill that empty hole. My orbs winded as a chilly breeze rushed by us. I ran over to Tamara and snuggled into him to fight the cold. Tamara was right, dark clouds soon began to loom over the once warm beach.

[Nickyxxx]

OOC: lol I don't think my white writing worked. Sorry

The foal looked thoughtful as she snuggled up to Tamara. He reached down and pressed his nose against her cold neck. "Come on. Lets go." He gently nudged Lilly and began to walk away from the rolling waves that seemed to be getting bigger and fiercer. He didn't like the way they roared loudly behind them. Small flakes began to spiral down towards the ground, brushing lightly against their noses and clinging to their coats.
