Everyone wants to lead an extraordinary life Posted on August 6, 2024 at 02:11:58 PM by Augustus
Dad would kill him for wandering off, but he had to know what the outside world was like. The colt was over heard some of the exchange between his father and Icewine. The Lagoon was offering to take him to train, but father was adamant he didn't need it. It made the colt curious to what made his father so nervous. He would have to ask later when father wasn't so busy patrolling their home. This is when his grand idea for adventure popped into his head.
The sea was a lot harder to cross than he imagined. He saw the ocean was the key to excitement at first. It quickly took a turn when he realized just how big it was. The deep water went on and on and his legs quickly grew tired. He struggled at times to stay afloat until seeing a mass of land gave him the extra energy boost he needed. By the time the boy has made it to the Shore he was coughing up water from the numerous time he had went under.
Panic set in as he breathed rapid fast until all the liquid was out of his lungs. This is when the cream colored colt dropped to the sandy shore with relief. "I made it," He breathes. After a couple minutes he rolls over and gets back to his hooves. Wide eyes explore the open area in front of him. He couldn't contain his excitement, but he also couldn't forget how his legs still ached. And the sun was going down. "I need to find a safe place to sleep." He mutters to himself as he walks towards a lone tree surrounded by grass. "Perfect." He smiles and curls up for the night.
He had no idea what he was doing. Not that anyone would mess with him considering his companion he knew nothing about. Yasmina watches over his nephew as he sleep. She was careful to not wake him and she was careful to be nondected when he does. As the morning birds begin their song, Aug flutters his eyes open to a bright new world. He stands, stretches, and starts his journey exploring this new place. This was when the thirst took hold over his sense. Aug would like to think he dodged around the other horses in the meadow like a ninja (probably not), but no one bothered him as he made his way to the smell of fresh water.
Unbeknownst to him, Yasmina was in the distance showing her teeth and glaring at all those he passed. The mare kept herself carefully hidden as Augustine comes across the stream with a small brindle filly already drinking from it. Augustin smiles cheerfully to find a new friend outside of his home. His head stretches over to stare at her through the water just before the filly raises her head and says hello. His eyes follow to her real self and giggles at the water dripping from her mouth. Bee She says. He laughs more. "Hi Bee!" He preceeds to make buzzing noises.
"There is bees where I came from, but they definitely dont look like you." He comments as he looks around her. "I mean I guess your color is similar, but you have no wings." He pulls back, extends his right leg in front of him, and bows his head in a quick Bob. "I am called Augustus de Nicodemus," gosh that was too long. "I'm a Prince!" Okay so he wasnt officially, but he knew his father's ambitions. He also thought one day he would be taking over the Inlet in place of his father when he retired. Just as father took over for his aunt Parvati. There was only his older brother to fight off. Replies: There have been no replies.
