[}A Trail Of Stardust...{]
The moon was full but unseen. The grass was wet and slippery. The rain fell hard on that spring day and it was a day that not many equines were out and about. Walk.KeepWalking.Move.Breathe.Don'tCryOut.WatchForPredators... the string of intertwined, neverending thoughts was all that kept her going. ...Don'tStop.Don'tSlip.KeepWalking.Move.Breathe.FindShelter. Her small, golden form eventually found a small cave to take the needed shelter from. Collapsing on the hard stone she breathed hard and strained to keep her eyes open. The flooded marsh outside the door was too much for the young filla and she was exhausted beyond all reason. The little thoroughbred's palomino body was thin and ragged, her eyes, though still retaining their youthful glow, were becoming dull and lifeless. Starborn needed a mother's milk quickly, for the three week old filla was becoming weaker by the hour.

OOC; We'll here goes nothing...She dark,mean,has milk for a foal that had died....Im gonna try BIC: Shona walked through the water without much struggle. Rain moved softly now as it tapped her dun coat. She neared a the stone were the filly was at amd stoped. She perked her ears foreward and stared at the filly. Her udder had milk from losing a foal. She watched and eyed Starborn carefully.

The little filla was exhausted beyond belief and couldn't even lift her head to get a better view of the mare. Her vision was blurred as she eyed the vixen with a scared eye. Ma....ma? she whispered hoarsely, trying to get a fix on the mare. Mama...safe? her little body shivered as she remembered her recent ordeal. She had been alive for only two weeks. Her mother had raised her with a kind and loving way, her touch soft and her words gentle. The little filal had known no other life and had learned quickly. Her lapse back into child speech had been from stress and shock. Why shock? Because her home had been in the mountains and her mother had fallen prey to mountain lions before Starborn's eyes. The pain of a scratch that ran down her neck was still there, though the wound was healing nicely. The filly would carry the scar all her life.

Shona laid her ears back. She snorted but lowered her voice and tried to make it calm and sweet. "No I am not...but safe..." she spoke no more. Her ears stayed back but she watched the weak filly with big black eyes. Her tail flicked at her rump as she watched the filla. Shona stretched her neck out and touched the fillys body. Shona took a few more steps closer and nudge her softly. "I am Shona." she whispered. Her ears perked as she watched.

Starborn's dark eyes closed as she sighed in dissapointment. Breathing hard, the little filly struggled to her feet. Sorry.. she murmured. A little blood ran from her neck as she looked at the ground in shame. Of course it wasn't her mother. Her mother was dead. She looked back up at Shona and identified her as a Dark mare from her eyes. Her strange, cold eyes. That gace her away. Starborn's mother had trained her foal to recognize the signs of the three Alliances. So...Shona, was it? Are you here to laugh at my plight? she asked, bitter that the first to find her was one who would probably be cruel to her.

OOC: I changed her to neutral....well if a mare is gonna be nice to a foal they will have some good in them? what do you think?
BIC: Shona snorted and rolled her eyes. "No...Im not all evil but mostly I am." her voice was hard and gingerly. Somehow they both went good with her voice. The dun mare arched her neck. Her flares wide as she stared at the filly. She knew this filly was starving and sighed. "I bet your hungry." she murmered. Shona looked deep into her eyes. Hmmm she is a light filly we'll maybe I can show her a few dark ways for protection and fighting just in case. That should make her even a little. Only the rain was heard in the silence.

((good idea))
I am very hungry, she admitted after a moment. But what does it matter? will die soon. I will die here... her vocals were sad and she closed her dark eyes to the world. It was over. She knew that.....unless this mare had come to take her in. Her little ehart fluttered at that sudden thought. She hadn't really realized that she was in the adoption marsh, but now that her suroundings clicked it was obvious! She was saved!

Shona's lips formed a smile. It was like she was reading the fillys mind. "No you won't I will take care of you." she nickered and nuzzleed the filly. She had missed the presence of a foal next to her. Somthing she can guard and take care of. At least it was better than being bored. "Whats your name?" she asked the filly.

"Your wlecome." she muffled and nuzzled the filly. Only her mind raced. m Im guess a nice stag will be able to take both of us in. BUt I'll just hope so.... She snorted and moved up alittle so the filly could drink. "Drink up and then rest we have a long way to go." she spoke. She let out a sigh and lowered her head to graze on the marsh grass.

Starborn stepped forward slowly on uncertain hooves and drank eagerly. Her long legs were still weak from travelling alone so she stumbled a bit but she was alright. The sun shone down from above as the rain clouds began to disperse and Starborn looked up for a moment to gaze upon the skies in wonder. This day was her miracle day, and the sun was celebrating with her.

Shona turne dhe head around and nudged her. "Go ahead and drink" she spoke in whisper tone. Her head moved back down infront of her. She grazed silently as the sun made her dun pelt look better. Her black tail swished as she waited.

The little filla nodded to her knew mother and drank deeply once again. After a while, when the rain clouds had dispersed completely, She raised her head again. Where do you live, Mother? she asked, Where will we live together?

Shona gave a sigh and nuzzeled her foal. She looked at her and sighed agian. "Nowhere yet but I will find us a good home." she smiled sweetly.She knew she must find a home. "ow rest." she crooned and laid down. She felt a little tierd herself.

The little filly rolled her eyes in mock exasperation with a grin but lay down anyway. Her little legs practically collpased under her and in moments she was asleep with her head on her mother's barrel.
