((For Fate))

She may have been stricken with sickness, but she was not letting that get her down any longer! For the past week or do, she has been feeling better, although still not completely up to par. She felt well enough that her dark legs moved freely and her mind felt more clear. In fact, so much time without fun and play made her quite the sad girl. It was time to go out and explore again! She was not going to let anyone stop her on this morning.

The sun was just starting to rise when she dashed out of Diveen into the fields. She had escaped the den with ease, attempting to ensure that no family member followed her on this day. It was not that she didn't like her family, not at all. She simply wanted some time to herself, to explore the world with her rainbow eyes. There was something special about exploring on her own, and she was glad to have some time as the golden sun painted the sky with ease.

The girl's golden saddle seemed to glow brightly as the sun's rays flashed upon her. The lining of red glimmered as her growing legs dashed with excitement. She still felt a bit tired, a bit weighed down with the sickness but she was so much better! How could she not skip and dance in the sunlight, among the tall green summer grasses? Bugs would fling into the air at her approach, and she did not hesitate to fail at catching them in her mouth. In fact, it was simply thrilling to chase bug after bug.

Her own blazing trail led her to the lake. Her rainbow eyes were distracted with the chasing, but once she caught sight of the amazing liquid she paused. She stood straight up on her elegant long legs, gold-smudged head lifting to look at the large body of water. She had never seen anything quite like it before. Rivers and streams, yes, but a lake? A smile crawled onto her dark muzzle, and she bounded suddenly to the water. She plunged herself into the shallow shore, golden drops of water flinging into the air with the sunrise. Her jaws snapped at it as she jumped upward, only flinging more water to jump up. It was like a never-ending game, and she was going to have a blast with it!
