  Nel Zelpher Freedom! Halia had finally slipped out from Natsiya's watchful presence, a feat that was becoming easier by the day now that the three younger siblings were nearly grown. The lanky young mare might be the most brightly colored and easily spotted of the three, but she was also the fastest. Add in a bit of conniving with Dalonega, and her elder brother was confounded, leaving her free to explore for a little while. She never dared stray too long, lest she face the wrath of the entire worried family when she returned...but she was almost a full grown mare! She could take care of herself long enough to stretch her legs a little.

Ah a day away from the mother, not like she noticed he was gone in fact she seemed more chipper after he returned from being gone for hours. He needed to stay away more often then maybe she would stop trying to bite him when he wanted to play. Of course she always was very crabby though when he was a foal she was much more willing to play then. Maybe he needed to try being more mature... nah!
Critter trotted through a large field some ways from the little meadow his family lived in. The wind whipped through his mane sending the short hairs on his neck whipping about and his tail flew behind him like a gray, black and white banner. He always enjoyed getting out into the larger fields as he could rid himself of his extra energy and do as he please for his mother was not there to snap at him. Sometimes he really felt she needed to chill out and let go of whatever resentment she was holding that she was taking out on him.

It didn't take Halia long to notice she wasn't alone on the plains. Knowing few others outside her immediate family, the prospect of meeting someone new was an exciting one. She moved towards the stranger at a quick trot, a little awkward with her new growth. "Hi there!" she greeted him with a friendly grin to show that she meant no harm. "I'm Halia...and you?"

Critter came to an immediate hault at the sight of the new mare coming toward him. At her smile he too smiled. A friendly gesture was all it took to get his attention well towards an adult mare at least, with a stallion it would take a bit more but this was not a stallion. "My name's Critter! Pleasure to meet you Halia!" He replied flicking his tail about happily.

Critter seemed like an energetic stallion to say the least. Well, Halia wasn't the most placid mare herself so that didn't faze her too awfully much. "Well, it looks like you're having a good day at least, so that leaves the other question. What brings you out here on this nice day?" She tilted her head curiously.

Critter was grinning until Halia's question came then it all went down hill. His smile became an odd grudging type frown and his ears fell back against his head. "Uh well... My mother. I'm avoiding her for the day. She tends to be nicer at night if I am away most of the day so I'm out here. What about you? What brings you out here?" He asked now perking his ears back up and gazing at Halia curiously.

Ooooooh. That explained a lot. Well, not really, but Halia tried hard to understand. Her mind likened his reason to one much like needing time away from her brothers once in a while. "I do the same thing to my brothers," she stated. "In fact, that's my reason." The young mare laughed slightly. "Managed to outwit big brother yet again!"

A slight smile appeared on Critter's face at Halia's reply and he nodded. "Your brothers like to keep a close eye on you then? I like to keep an eye on my own sister when I feel she needs it. It's that brother protective thing." He said with a grin. If her brother was anything like him when it came to his sister he was either worried or wondering who had stolen his sister for ransom.

"Natsiya does, at least," Halia laughed. "Dalonega wants to find himself some lady friends, and Aurum...well...Aurum likes to be pretty." She giggled a little at that. She liked how she looked, she knew she looked good, but she didn't see a need to spend hours primping and preening. "I wonder where he got it from...I know it wasn't mom! It's not quite like daddy, either. He just likes to floof and look all big."
