Title: I Want A Home
Mystery - January 12, 2008 04:34 PM (GMT)
My knees black as night moved up and down. They gathered speed as my feathering moved with it. Ears laid flat against my head as wind whistled by me. I was running, it was running that I loved. My eyes of green wide open as I gazed around, I now had come upon a land. Tail lashed at my rump, it hurt slightly from because of the speed I was going at. Mane fanned out behind me, neck arced with power. The thick muscle in my draft breed showing proud fully along my lines.
I moved through these plains, not knowing if this herd was nearby. My nose could smell clearly, I knew there was a herd here. It was no doubt that I had trespassed and could get yelled at for it. But these were light lands, they'd understand my purpose here, right? Or would they Alpha or Alphaess just assume I was here for a fight. Which I wasn't. No, I wasn't at all. All I wanted was a home and could have gone down to the darks or neutrals, but I decided not to. These horses should be grateful.
My breathing was heavy as my muscles began to wear down with energy. Almost tripping, I stopped my body beside a small stream. Dipping my muzzle into it, I guzzled down water. All my senses were alert is someone were to come upon me. As I finished, I lifted my muzzle. Water dripped down from it and my steely dun coat was coated in sweat. Though my breathe had not gone back to its regular state, my heart still pounded in my throat. I loved this feeling and would start going again if I wasn't waiting for the Alphaess to show up.
I let out a bellow of a neigh and let my head come down. Listening to it echo slightly, a grin laced my muzzle. Arcing my muzzle, I sighed quietly. Ears folded back up as my green eyes kept searching. Thinking to myself that this Alphaess was daintier then me and wouldn't be that easy to spot. Well compared if you were searching for me. Shaking my dome, mane and forelock flew in the air. Out of order, I looked pretty much like a raga-muffin. I didn't mind though, I still had hopes of getting into a herd. Looks or no looks.

It'd been a few months since the birth of my twin sons, and several months since my arrival to Royalty. Between Spring and now, I'd become a Queen and a mother of two at a young age. I was probably doomed from the start, anyways.
Copper splashes stand out vibrantly against the white of my body and the green grass, as pale gold and fiery auburn curls flicker in the Fall breeze. Soon the grass would die, and we'd have to struggle through Winter. But what land didn't? Fierce blue eyes survey the flat sections of Avalon quietly from a higher hill, with Koalvolt snoozing at my hooves. I had my doubts to where Tyhraone was, but I knew he wouldn't leave. He was probably hiding within the thicker parts of the grasses, like usual.
My tassels snap as I flick them in brief frustration. Those brief moments were common as of late, because I had yet gathered atleast two members outside of my lineage. It was only Kismet, Luke, my sons and myself, and I was growing to be increasingly impatient with the outside world. Had Avalon gone unnoticed? While other lands flourish and foals are brought into the world, Avalon silently withered. It made me think I'd brought my doomed fate with me whenever I'd left my homeland over a year ago.
Until copper audda flicker forward, as fierce blue hues catch something within the distance. Movement, which disturbs me to a degree. Rousting my son, I take a lofty trot down the hill towards the movement - only to find a stallion. I stop several paces away, copper audda flicker back briefly as I feel Koalvolt's own black-and-white frame brush by my back legs, so that he could duck underneath my stomach.
"Welcome to the Plains. I'm Spirit Dancer, Queen of Avalon. What brings you here?" I ask, my voice quivered ever-so slightly, because I sound so young to my own audda, yet the command in my question couldn't be ignored.

My eyes snapped to the female standing before me. Green occuli gazed over her petite and copper splashed form before seeing the smaller black and white form. My ears flickered back for a moment before I let my attention back onto the femme. Locks of black lashed back and forth at my ebony knees as I interestingly listened to her words. My lips turned into a thin, straight line when she was done. Her voice had quivered and I heard it, with no doubt. Though it wasn't my business, I wondered why just a bit. Curiosity always caught my interest.
"'Ello Spirit Dancer. I'm Fate." I meant this literally. My name was Escaping Fate. I never said escaping, but it always got too complicating saying or Fate, pick one. It bored me, though I am a boring horse. Eh, that was my own personal opinion. And why I'm babbling like this, I don't know why. And now that I finished speaking, my eyes moved over to look at the young colt. He looked a bit like his mother, but his color was what caught my attention. He wasn't the same copper as his mother. So where was the father of this situation? And once again, it's not my business, so I'm not going to ask. My green eyes looked back at Spirit Dancer, anticipating her answer. "Oh, I'm here for a home." I added, forgetting she had asked.

Copper audda flicker back briefly, disappearing in my pale gold and auburn tresses, before reappearing. His green gaze makes me slightly edgy, but I can see the curiousity in them, so I can see that he wasn't wanting to be a threat. Even if every male was a threat to me, now.
"A pleasure, Fate," I reply, fierce blue hues darting to the retreating for of Koalvolt; he'd probably found his brother or something interesting to keep himself busy for the time being. "Then you're welcome to my...slwoly forming herd. It's only myself, my sons, and two others for the time being."
Which was the truth; there was now way I could lie about my herd's size.

"Why thank you Spirit Dancer." I said kindly, a short nod of my head. A little bit of a smile finally warmed my lips. Out of the corner of my eye, I watched as the colt was captivated in something else. Then I heard her mention something about her herd. "Oh that doesn't bother me at all. Big or small, I'll stay." My smile was never flickering as my tone was slightly over confident. I wanted her trust, to be known that I was loyal. Not some mysterious stallion who would vanish at the sound of trouble.
