Meadow

The days had once been balanced on the beginning of her journey. the tables had turned, the days grew longer and the nights to short. She grew tired, her head hung lower than it ever would. Thoughts and memory pestered her mind, flashes of past moments naging her sore heart. Growing up as the plain child had never been easy, even with her mothers love. her siblings had been more than careful around her. deeply down she been jealous of never being able to kiss the sky, or harness magic. She blamed it mostly on her sire , he had been plane and void of mythical marks. even as images of her family passed through her mind, fondness still filled her heart.

She would miss then, granted , but after being the oddball for 3 years. She needed a new journey, her own she could influence with her actions and choices. She had set out in a random direction, passing mountains and plains. her hooves felt cracked and beaten down. muscles ache badly as they rolled painfully over the bones, bones that felt like sandpaper at every movement. her head hung lower than it ever would, fatigue slowly gaining on her. she couldn't even distinguish how many days she had been on the move, night and day had blurred into a fine line. her long tail trailed behind, like a wedding veils picking up sticks and dirt. her long mane knotted with leaves and branches as well. she over all looked ragged down, terribly in need of a night rest and a bath.

Barely making it up the last hill, or so she hoped. her knees trembling, warningly threatening to buck and send her to the floor. her body begged for mercy, for a well earned break. soft sigh escapes her dusty lips, giving in on the demand. it was no use, she wasn't going to be able to get further today. unable to stay up, standing she kneeled down. letting her body hit the grass with a soft thump. her pale eyes looked around, scouting her surroundings. Her ears softly flickered, closing her eyes as the win caressed her face. she reopened them to see something coming her way. even if she wanted, she couldn't even get up and run.
