(This is all in Unique's point of view)


 It was bright and the air... it was horrible. Tears rolled down my face, it was so different out here. I felt the warm tong of my mother, a white mustang. There was something beside me my head flashed around to see a black foal about my size, maybe a bit bigger. He saw me to, I tilt my head in wonder. Was he my brother? His eyes looked as confused as my own. Mother nuzzled me, I quickly looked over to her, still with curious eyes. She gave a small warm grin before lifting herself from the sheltering long grass. I felt I needed to follow her. I tried to do as she did, lifting my back end, then my front. After stumbling a few times I managed to pull myself up. The black foal, whom I assumed was my brother, was already standing beside our mother. There coats gleamed off of each other. I walked slyly threw the grass to reach mom and brother. Making sure not to step in the slippery brown stuff or the clear puddles on the ground. I nuzzled my mom and then started suckling, as did my brother. I finished earlier, not because I was not hungry only because of my brother who was pushing and shoving for more food. I perked my ears listening to the wind. I also heard many other things like horses, frogs, the rustle of the trees and even some of the crickets. It was fascinating, I had a urge to explore. So I did. I slowly and quietly walked away from mother as she grazed on the green flowing grass.   I reached a small, clear stream. It looked safe to step in. I reached a hoof out and tried to grip on a rock that was in the small stream. I felt pretty good, so I lift my other front hoof. It seemed my legs fell right out from under me. I could hear a large splash and thump. I could also feel it. There was an imeadant ach in her shoulder. The water was freazing and I did not feel like moving beause of the large pain. It almost felt good to have the icey water on her shoulder. But she new she had get up. She painfully luanched herself upwards. I soon was shivering out of the stream. When my small black hooves, and one white hoof, hit the grass I fell to the ground ,gracfully like a feather. The grass was so warm. I could feel the blood flow through my body once again. My heavy breathing was lighter, witch was a good sign. I smiled relief also fell threw my body. I closed my eyes for a small rest in the sun.

~~~~~~~~~

I awoke to a worried shriek. It sounded familiar. Like my mother. I rolled over on my tummy, looking up I saw the sun was only a small amount lower then before when I fell asleep. I soon started gazing away from the ball of fire. My eyes soon hit the image of a white mustang mare and a black colt, my mother and brother. I whinned happily to them but they did not return the happyness. Well my mother didn't anyway. My brother on the other hand trotted over and nuzzled me. I smiled and nuzzled him softly back. I started rising on my feet. I was wobbly at first but soon was able to walk normaly to mother. She gave a small nip to disencurage me to wonder off. I shyed away but she soon walked close to me and nuzzled me. I nuzzled her back of cource. We all started to head back to the herd. I eagerly ran ahead, this would be my first time meeting the herd and I was extremely excited. I quickly could smell the scent of many horses. And then could see them. My excitement turned into nervousness. I trotted behind my mom quickly as if she would sheild me from the danger soon to come, if there was danger. My eyes looked at each of the horses, they looked strong and tall.

"Mom?" my voice shook

"Yes" She said almost with a smile in her voice.

"Where are we?" I asked looking into her confident eyes.

"We are home" she said turning her neck to look at me. "This is the Waterlands Herd" she smiled

I said no more. I looked to the herd witch was now closer. I was still anxciuse. My mother gave a small call to the herd and all head popped up from the grass to look at us. There eyes scanned us, almost to see if we were eligable to be in there royal herd. Soon one horse, a horse with many splatters of black all over him, came from behind all the others. He looked tall and stronger than the rest. Many scares on his legs and even one on his cheeck. He was definantly the dominate. I hid behind my mother even more now. But the splattered horse smiled with bright eyes and walked calmly over to us. My mom stopped walking, as did my brother and I. 

"There magnificent" he said eyes beaming towards mother. Mom nodded.

"There ours" she smiled and nuzzled him. There seemed to be some kind of conection here, maybe even affection for each other. I walked out from behind mom. I scanned the stallion from hoof to tip of the ears. And when I was done I looked at my mom. My brother was still hiding behind her.

"This is your father"

"My what?" I snapped

"Your father" she said calmly.

I looked at the stallion once again. He walked towards me and nuzzled me. I backed away at first them came up and nipped at him playfully. He gave a joyful nicker before chasing me, in a playful matter. My brother soon joined in, and whenever I passed mom I could see her smize.

Love is a happy thing but douse not last forever. Soon my brother was very ill. We did not know the illness, witch made things worse. I stayed with him day and night. But one night I awoke. He was very cold. He seemed almost frozen. Alarmed, I got up and called for my mother and father, who came straight away. They nuzzled him. Mother looked back to me, "Go with the herd" she said.

"Why?" I asked scared.

"Go" she snorted before turned her bed back to my brother, Mufa. I galloped to the herd. Tears dripped down my cheeks to the unkown world of the ground. I was soon meant by another mare who kept me away from Mufa, mom, and dad.

Mom and dad finally came back. Father gave me a dispicaful look before walking away doubtfully. Mom came trotting up. My heart beat with joy that she was here. She glared at me, her eyes almost as cold as stone.

"Leave" she snorted. Her hoof stomped the ground and her ears pinned.

"What?" I asked confused. "Why?"

"You did it you killed him" she snorted and started charging at me. I Dodged her and soon started running for my life.

"I new I should have left you to die the minute you were born! That heart on your head is a curse" she yelled as a frantically galloped away. She yelled many other things but my eyes were foggy with tears and my heart sunk to the bottem of my stomach as if a boulder in the sea. I ran for miles and miles wondering what had just happened. I Had just been... abondonded. Mom had told my Mufa and I about that. She told us all the bad things about it. I stopped, my heart thundering inside my fragile body. I looked back to see if they were chasing me, hopefully to tell me to come back, but nothing... nothing at all. Just the silence of the meadow. My legs shook from the running. My heartbeat fast. I layed down in a small sunny patch of long grass, near a small willow tree. When I finally got settled I noticed my stomach was grumbling. I was hungry, very hungry. There was no milk from mother anymore though. What should I eat? I asked myself. I remembered seeing the adult horses eating the grass and the water from the river. Curiosly, I looked around, "plenty of grass" I murmered to myself. Consiusly, I opened my mouth wide and chomped down on a small bundle of grass. I chewed and imiedantly spit it out. "Yuck!" I hollored discusted. I looked at it. There was nothing else though. Still not wanting it, I grabbed the grass with my mouth and chewed. I swallowed distgusted. After I was satisfied with what I ate I looked around. There was not a stream in sight. I twitched my ears back and forth looking for the sound of a creek. And there was one, near by. I luanched up forward and followed the sound cosiusly. I found the creek it was small and clear. There were pretty rocks in it and small water flowers hear and there near the edges. Green grass surounded it. I sipped up the water in small amounts, it was not bad but not as good as mothers milk. I yawned and looked to the bright circle. It was now dipping into the hills. This meant it was time for bed. Mother had told me so. Then again mother also chased me away. I yawned again. Shaking out my mane and layed down near the creek. My eyes drooped down and I was soon fast asleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~

The sun was so... bright. Except I did not want to move. It was so warm and I felt sheltered and safe. My eyes slowly opened, my head quickly bobbded up and a closed my eyes and wrinkled my nose. It was very sunny. I huffed out the air thru my nose and rose. At first, I was alarmed the herd was gone there was no one there. Then I remembered, mother chased me away. She surely did not mean it. It was all just a big understanding and... there was a crack of a branch. I swiveled in the direction it came from. There is was... a large thin thing. It has a ad-normal flat face and eyes on the front of its head. It only had hair on the top of it, and is was rather shagy hair to. I held still maybe it would not be able to tell I was here. But it started walking closer, I bolted for the hills. He chased after me in a large loud animal. It was a blue animal, a blue animal? It was much louder then any normal horse and fater. The person almost disapeared in the loud grumbling thing. I ran and ran not wanting the thing to hurt me. I had to live, not for my mother or for my father for my brother who had not lived. Even remembering Mufa made me hurt. I had to survive this mild attack, for Mufa. The thing started getting closer and closer till it was beside me. I looked at it, the flat faced thing had a

Very nice story; I enjoyed every bit of it! Is it set in somewhat modern times? The "fat animals" sound a lot like cars to me.

If you would like me too, I can correct your grammar mistakes. Just pm me if you want me to.
