My name is Unbroken, I am Spirit's half brother. I took more after my father than I once thought, I have his wild personality. I traveled with Spirit through his journey to become free again, and unlike him, I never fell in love. He and Rain now raise my little sister Smoke, while I rebel against my rage at the people who burned my herd alive.

My name is Smoke, I am the adopted daughter of Spirit and Rain and adopted sister to Stormy, their real daughter. I have no memories from when I was younger, all I remember is fire, fire everywhere and a black stallion saving me then me running back to my charred mother's body, and falling asleep in the ashes . Waking up to find a grullo stallion, lead me to a herd I now know as home.

This is our story...

-Flashback to when Unbroken found Smoke-

Unbroken's past

I galloped hard and fast across the plains, racing with my friend the eagle, as I made my way home, home to my herd and mother. I let out a joyous whinny when I came upon the place I was born, only to have that joy turn to shock and sadness, with rage brimming at the edges. My homeland, blackened and charred, bodies, bodies blackened and charred lay everywhere, the grass, the trees, everything gone, a lifeless pit now. I lowered my head and searched for my mother's body. I found it and mourned, and then heard a weak nicker. I jumped and looked around, to find a small black filly with a white fang marking on her head, she was looking at my mother and sniffled. I then knew my wreatched father had had another foal with my mother. I led the small filly to Spirit's herd and asked him to raise her. He then understood what had happened and walked the filly over to Rain and Stormy.

I stood at the top of the hill and watched as shock and sadness flashed across both mare's faces, as they looked up at me, a proud stallion standing tall up on the hill. I tossed my head, reared and ran back the way I came, I was going to search for clues on who did this to my family. I walked up to my mother, to find my father, Strider. I was so full of anger that I confronted him. The fight was short lived as he ran away when the Calvary came back for me. I hated them so much that I ran at them and attacked one of them. Then a dude on a white appaloosa stallion, about two years old, then one on a grey horse with bright green eyes, roped me.  I looked at the two horses, and saw them look at each other and lower there heads, I soon found out that they were half brothers, son of the famous white stallion, The Albino.They were Kage and Kai, and they lost there younger half brother Darren, and their older half sibling Fallen, but Shadow was Kage's full sister.

Present time at the Cimarron herd

Smoke's story

I'm smoke, and I'm the adopted daughter of Spirit and Rain. I have a adoptive sister named Stormy. I am part of the Cimarron herd, and I feel like I'm being watched all the time. I've had nightmares about it since it first started. I have no memory of my past, other than my mother was burned alive, and my father is unknown. But I believe that Spirit knows, and is not telling me. I've also noticed that we get into fights alot, and we have the same personality. She wanted to know what happened to her father and who he was and if she had any siblings. But Spirit would never tell her. So, I rebeled against Spirit by acting like Stormy, she influenced my actions, I went out to party at night, and usally came back with stallions trying to mate with me. Not that one ever got the chance. But one night I was caught by the Calvary. I was dragged into the fort the next night, and everyone looked at me, the only black mare. I snorted at every horse. But one stallion's markings tugged at my memory. I didn't know why, so I just ignored everyone.

At the Calvary Fort

Unbroken's veiw

I looked at the black mare being dragged in, she looked like Smoke, same markings and everything. I looked at the red dun stallion next to me, only to have him look back and shake his head, he was an old stallion around 19, But he was still kicking. Looking at Kage, I saw that the mare was Smoke, she was grown up and was dragged here. I bared my teeth at the Colonel and glared. How dare he bring my sister to this place.

I was broken at this point, somewhat, I tricked the humans quite well. And now is when I went on the attacked, all the fury I felt inside me bursting out if a big fireball, I killed ten people before I got to Smoke and let her out. She bolted away from me, I whinnied to her and went back on my killing spree. Soon only a handful of people were left, one the Colonel holding a pistol to my face. I reared and kicked him in the stomach, the pistol going off and hitting me in the hip.

I ran after that, ignoring the blazing pain I felt, and ran to my brothers herd, and collasped in the middle of the herd, to weak to stand. I blacked out. I woke up at the Lakota village again, only the whole herd was here, watching me to make sure I was fine. Smoke and Spirit where fighting with each other and my father was standing between them, explaining to Smoke everything. I then stood up and looked at my hip, it was healed, and then I whinnied to Smoke, I was home, wild and free once again, with my family.
