Selena nods, more to herself than the stallion standing before her. She knew she had to tell someone sooner or later, but she never really wanted to.
"When I was a young foal, my parents were killed." Killed didn't sound correct, much too gentle of a word. "Murdered really. And I never knew why. My mother told me to run, and I did, but I soon collapsed, and with my last bit of energy, hid myself, in fear I would too die."
She sighed, the memories were already returning.
"Soon I was found, not by the killers, but by an Angeni. She was beautiful and golden. She told me not to be afraid." Selena closed her eyes in anger, but continued, "She took me in, and adopted me. But I soon found out that she, and her family, loathed me, they had only adopted me to increase their social status, to be known as kind, and loving Soquili. But they threatened to kill me almost everyday. I fought them off, tried to escape, but they worked me hard and gave me very little food, so I had even less energy."
"But I finally did, one day, still young, and thats how I came to be here." She looked him in the eye. "It all started with those words "don't be afraid"."

[no worries, happens in every RP XD]
Selena sighed, "No one knew, not even my two legger. Your the only one Ive told here. But you know...it feels almost...good...to get it off my chest finally."
She smiled sadly at the stallion, was a true friend. He didn't mean any harm.
"No need to be sorry, there is nothing either of us can do about it, what I really want to change about my past, or at least making it clearer, is why my parents were killed..."
her knees began to ache, she knew they would soon buckle if she did not move about.
"How about that walk now?"

Brian nuzzled her,He cared for her.She seemed important to him now,even though they had just met.Lorraine his mate would be proud of him to help out soquilis in need."Telling about your problems does get it off your chest,always."Brian looked at her."Maybe if we set out and figure out why your parents were killed,then we could find that out."Brian smiled at her."Don't worry okay,we'll finish our walk,you can tell me somemore."

Selena smiled sadly. "Thank you Brian," she didn't return the nuzzle, it felt nice to be in contact with another Soquili though.
The walked slowly through the forest's tall grass. Her mind was recalling all the memories of her parents' blood on the grass, and her mother's last words. She felt numb to the pain.
"I don't think that will be possible, it is many lands away, i was very young when I ran away from the golden Angeni, so I don't remember its landscape very well, or any familiar landmarks. They also kept me inside most of the day, unless I had chores. And...I don't think...i could handle going back."
She thought of the mare that claimed to be her sister, Jojo.

"No problem."He listened to her.She seemed to be having alot of trouble."Just try to do something that wont remind you of it.It'll help."Brian felt bad for her."Thats bad,maybe if we could find someone you did know at the time,maybe they could tell us.Or show us."Then he heard that she didn't want to go back."Then we'll work at getting you to be more happy,and teach you to be mean when you have to be."

Selena looked up at him. His presence calmed her so much. Usually, she would be in terrible pain from the blinding migraines that always seemed to appear when she tried to recall her past. Maybe now was the only time she could regain her memory.
She stopped walking, closed her eyes and began to hum the song her mother had put her to sleep with.

She could see her mother's face, but it was pale, with was stained with blood, her face was scratched and her leg was mauled completely. She could hear her warning. Her please for her child to run.
Selena ran. She never looked back. She never saw her mother again. She ran far, very far, avoiding the trails and winding through the dense forest. But she tripped. A root had curled around her foot and made her fall to the hard, cold ground. Her face was scraped and bleeding. She began to stand, but her head exploded in pain. SHe couldn't see. She couldn't open her eyes. She couldn't move.
She lay there in agony.
Now Selena felt a smile crossing her face. She could remember. In so much detail. But she feel a pain in the back of her mind and stopped. If she were to carry on, a headache would be born.
She saw Brian standing before her. He was real. He was here, helping her. Calming her. And he looked a little more worried.
"I remembered Brian..."

[I know, Brian is so nice! XD]
Selena smiled at him. It was so long ago, and for some reason...she didn't want to know. It shocked her. All her life after the murder she plotted, lived only for the dream of getting revenge. It was really the only thing that kept her alive after she was found by the Angeni. She couldn't explain it to herself. But somehow, she knew, she could explain it to Brian.
"No Brian, I don't think I can. Or want to," she saw his confusion, "All my childhood, and young adult hod Ive hated them. Ive want to kill them myself. Be responsible for their deaths, stand in front of their graves. It was the only thing that kept me going. But now..." She sighed and nodded, re-assuring herself that she could trust him, and that he cared for her. "Now I know its not what my mother would have wanted. Not only that, I don't want it anymore. I don't want to be a killer, or to posses the mind of a killer. All my life Ive lived in darkness, lived alone, with out anyone there, fearing the light. But...why did I think the light was so bad? Plants need light to grow, we need plants to live..." She was going off track, and she steered herself right back. "My parents are dead, yes, and I don't believe in heaven, but Im sure they are happier now. And I no longer want to live in the darkness, I want to live with others, to accept them and learn from them. Just like you accepted me."
Now she returned nuzzled him. He was a real friend. Her first friend. it was a start.

She looked at him, blinked and sighed. Maybe it was just one of those things that can't be put into words. The speech sounded so much better in her head... She was not very good with words when they were express real emotions. Fake emotions were so much easier.
She groaned, "I lost a little momentum there didn't I?" She took a deep breathe and walked by his side.
One word ran through her head. It was a strange word she had used before, but never in a serious manner.
Friend.

 [[ x3 cute?]] Friends,they indeed were.She said she couldn't ever tell anyone anything without covering it up with a lie.Only if more soquili were just like him,maybe she'd trust more than just one.He knew his family would take her in for who she was.Even if she did have some problems,They'd accept it.She was pretty,but he had someone,hopefully she would find someone who would love her just the way she was."You were.But don't mind it,Its only your mind trying to trick you from being...."He stoped and thought about it."Its only trying to tell you that you can't trust me with your words.Which you can."

Selena looked at him, and it seemed like she was seeing him for the first time. How could kindness be so easily turned into a gift?
She thought his words through, chewed on them, seeing if there was any poison. No, stop! Your doing it again! You must learn to trust! Friends are almost never enemies in disguise.
She was hopeless. Well, practice was needed, and as long as she had him to talk to, she knew, that from here on out, things would only improve. Not that they could get any worse.
"Brain, your so kind. I really don't know how to thank you," then a horrific thought dawned on her, what if he would never want to listen to her again? "I really hope we can be...friend...s?" She hoped that would do the trick.
