The skittish palomino inched her way further from him as he grazed on the sparse grass. She kept an eye on him as she grabbed bites with every tiny step that she took. She was frustrated and tense. The image of her sister leaving her behind replayed endlessly in mind. She desperately wanted to know why she would do such a thing. She needed at explanation. It hurt that is seemed like her sister no longer cared about her. She didn’t want to be here. She didn’t want to be around anyone. And she sure as heck didn’t want to be around Dogun. This irrational fear of everything that has plagued her for quite some time was something she really needed to get over. Her sister had known this and was annoyed by her clinginess that this had worked out nicely for her…but not very well for the golden colored sister.

A movement of something brought her back to reality. With pricked ears she snorted as she spooked, jumping sideways. There actually wasn’t anything there that would spook a horse…it was just all in her imagination. But to her, it was real for the moment. It had worked her up enough so that she took off a few steps still intently watching whatever it was that was spooking her…which to some it would leave them wondering what the heck was wrong with her as there was absolutely nothing there.

With another loud snort she took off at a gallop, sending a buck into the air before plunging into the ocean. The water hit her legs but didn’t slow her down until it surrounded her body. Half of her was fleeing from whatever it was she had imagined and half of her was wanting to flee this place and find her sister.
