Alibi had been right on knowing Skylar would take care of the boy. Hearing the soft footfalls behind her, Skylar gave pause and glanced back at him. Her golden eyes studied him for a moment before looking over him to where Alibi had been but didn't see the pale mare. With a sigh, Skylar turned fully to face the boy and gave him a kind smile and reached her muzzle out towards him. "My name is Skylar, what is your name?" she asked, her tone quiet and gentle. Skylar did not think him to be skittish, but it was her own way of showing affection.


Ears twisting forward she allowed enough time for him to either answer or give a valid amount of silence for Skylar to know he wasn't going too. Either way the mare pulled her face away and gave a glance around. "We should find shelter." she stated. Though the weather was still clear the wind was starting to pick up and it cut through Skylar's thinner coat like a knife. Turning away, Skylar called him along with her so that he knew he was invited before she lead them to a thicket of trees where the wind would at least be slowed down.
