Africa sighed, he knew it bothered her. He dropped his head "..I..." he sighed again, he knew she mainly was mostly interested in breeding. He looked towards the sky before back at the dun mare and he muttered to himself "I just want something thats real like myself and Echo had. Maybe i'll just have to push that aside." He sighed, trying to pick himself back up again as he shook himself off. He took a step towards the water, looking at it before glancing back to Trinity "What exactly is it you want?"

Trinity shivered at her thoughts and looked at Africa What i want is a mate...and a foal she looked down at the ground.Then she swiftly dragged her bodice to the waters edge.She sighed as she looked at her own reflection.She snorted and turned back around to Africa What is it you want? she asked him with reasoning.Yet again she lowered her head and sighed.She took a sip of water from the lake and walked backwards.Then she started to graze,slowly,waiting for Africa's reply.

"I don't really know....i want to have something real like i once had...but judging by mares i have recently come accross, it's different...most just want to have mates and have foals, with no real strong feelings for each other." He looked at her with a low expression, glancing at the ground as he added "it's hard to explain....i mean i'm happy to give a mare a foal, but when it comes to being mates and having to spend together everyday...i feel it needs to have something there to hold it all together...not just the want to have a mate for the sake of it." He glanced back at her, lifting his head slightly as he had a slight embarassed and worried smile accross his face. Who was he kidding, a horses life was mainly meant to be of a lead stallion with a band of mares, he bred with each, no feelings there, but for him he looked at it differently.

I don't mean to be harsh,but...I though lead stallions where meant to breed with each and every single mare in his herd?Am I not right?...Plus,I'm getting these thoughts of a stallion...but I can't make out who they are... she looked uncomfortable.She now knew, how it felt to be confused in love,and she didn't know what the other feeling was.She walked close to the edge and looked down at her reflection,her golden coat still gleaming in the sun,but the sparkles in her eyes were nearly dead.Maybe this stallion isn't the right one for me... she said inside herself.She sighed out loud and looked at Africa,waiting for his answer.She briefly smiled but went back to being sad again.

Africa snorted, not realising himself getting defensive "I realise that, but lets just say after what i've been through, sometimes i don't think thats always the best option, i have respect for herd members, especially mares. As i said before i'm happy to breed, but when it comes to staying mates, i look for love that'll hold it there." His voice wasn't harsh enough to startle the mare, but it was clearly heard he was meaning it. After being the type of stallion that was brought up to be forceful and controlling over mares, he had hated himself for it, and he had come a long way. Now he was being pushed back in that direction by just one mare.

Delta stood alone at the lakes edge, her forefeet dipping into it's clear water. She walked forward, her hooves lipping on the rock as she walked along the lakes edge. She slowly walked up the bank, her glistening black coat startling in the sunlight, her flaxen mane and tail blowing in the breeze. She saw two horses near by and sighed. It seamed she could never be alone to dwell upon her misserable life. (short, but I NOT IN THE MOOD TO RP) (that was caps, sorry)

Trinity snorted and looked up,then noticed another mare.She reared and pounced into the water.She swam over to the other side.Then she shook her coat off and looked at the mare with her green eyes.She didn't bother herself to look back to Africa.She just stood there,looking at the mare.

Africa swivelled his ears as he heard hooves on the rocky surface of the bank. He turned his head, his face now lighting up a bit, 'Finally another' he thought to himself. He shook his mane as he flicked it to the right side of his neck, his forelock still hanging well in his face. He nickered to the mare with a bob of his head "Welcome! And who might you be?" His ears were perked forward, an eyebrow raised, slightly ignoring trinity.

Delta heard the greeting of the stally and saw the mare aproch. She didn't move to ether. She just looked down at a puddle, her reflexion rippling on it's surface. She sighed, then slowly lifted ehr head and looked around, her eyes wondering over the mare and stally as if they didn't exist. She slowly bent her head in greeting to the mare and turned to the stally, her eyes looking him over. She breathed out heavily. "I am Delta... and you?" She asked, her voice soft and far away. Her mind dwelled upon her past, how she had lost love so many times before, how it had always found a way to stab her through the heart, how the last time it had happened her wounds wouldn't seam to heal. She looked up at the stally, her eyes burning into his, wondering if that would happen again...

Africa just cocked his head as he watched the mare who seemed to be ignoring both him and trinity. Soon enough he straightened his head again as he heard her finally speak as she looked at him. He smiled warmly "Nice to meet you Delta, I'm Africa, owner of Zoomy lake." He looked the mare up and down as he took in her beautiful details, his blue eyes shifting back up to lock with hers.

Delta tilted her head slowly, as if thinking. she stared hard into the stallys eyes. Arfica.... the name roled around in her head. She turned her head and looked off to the distant snow hills, far qaway from her now. She had come from there, that was where she belonged, dancing through the snow on the brisk early mornings. But she had come down here, maybe it would bring her happiness, maybe yet another sorrow, but she had to find out. She turned back to Africa. "Nice name... and nice terra. You should be proud." She looked into his eyes once more, searching through their depths, as if trying it find an answer. "Why are you here Africa? What do you wish for?" She asked, every word he spoke, ever movement he took she watched and listened to, digging out his personality, trying to find what lay beneath his glistening hide.

Africa watched her closely. As she spoke he smiled with a reply "thankyou, i sure do.." He shifted his hooves as he took a small step towards the water, bending his neck down as he nudged the surface of the water with his muzzle before taking a drink. He looked up towards Delta as he did so, his ears pricked forward. Soon enough he lifted his muzzle as he had his fill, lifting his head back up and answering the mares next questions "To be able to start a herd, find a loving mate, have a family, protect my herd with my life." He smiled, looking to the ground as he stood thinking before looking back to Delta, "If you don't midn me asking, how about you?"

Delta breathed out heavily and lowered her eyes. Her black coat shimmered, her flaxen mane and tail slowly waved by ehr side. "me...? I don't know what I wish for... or want... or even what I'm here for." She leant over to one side, letting her other 2 hooves rest, thnking. thoughts washed over her mind. Why am I here? Should I be here? Do I have a purpose in life? Should I even bother living? Her last thought hit her hard, and she relised that was what she wanted. "I guess I want some purpose in life, a reason to even bother living, like a family, anything!" Although her voice was soft and quiet her emotions poured through her words, her missery, her wondering personality, her strong will to find something worth fighting for.

Trinity snorted as she saw Africa take no interest in her.She slowly moved into the water and swim back to the little island she was once on.She looked back at Africa and faced her hide towards them and started grazing,her ears back.Her inky black tail swidhy about.Her inky black mane on her left.

Africa just tilted his head to the side as he listened to the mare, she sounded rather down. As she mentioned about family, a smile crept upon his face. He glanced towards Trinity he noticed swim off to her little island. He turned his attention back to the mare, nickering softly "how do you think of a herd life?" His ear were pricked forward, his face with a warm, comforting smile accross his face as he awaited a reply from the beautiful black mare.
