Dark Woods

[Lex]

House, the large, gray, and hairy Shire stallion, enters the dark woods only to find himself all alone. He secretly yearns for companionship, but never physically shows it. He breathes deeply and begins to graze. He hears the loud shrill of a Barn owl and looks up to see it staring back at him. He neighs frantically at the bird untill it flys off it's perch. House is relieved it is gone...

[Lex]

[Lex]

[Chloe]

Flicka trots through Dark Woods and spots House by the tree. Seeing that he was preoccupied, she cantered on, her mane flying in the wind.

[Lex]

House is curious as to this young filly's origins. He looks at her and thinks she is somehow familiar to him. He narrows his eyes and thinks hard. He believes that this must be the foal of Saphira, his old friend, whom he knew to be dead. His jaw sinks to the ground untill he sraightens himself out. He blinks and shakes off his thoughts. He paws the ground and kicks his back leg to shake off flies and continues to graze. While grazing, he can't help but think about his dear friend Saphira and their great times together. She was his secret love, and she never knew it. She went and fell in love with a bay stallion named Jack, and their friendship was never the same. He'd known her since they were foals, and then she went away with Jack. He'd never forgotten her.
House looks at the filly and finally decides to approach her. He whinnies and waits for a response...

[Chloe]

Flicka, being startled by the sudden whinny, takes off into the night. She is unsure if the whinny was friendly or not. Secretly, she wish that she had stayed... but she sets off to another place; maybe she will find a home...
