The tan stallion had long ago stopped counted, his eyes were scanning the area trying to figure out where the girl could have possibly wandered off to, perhaps he should have set some boundaries. He didn't want to wander far and wide looking for the mare but something in his gut told him that she was indeed close, it was just a matter of where. His tail tucked between his legs as he began to wander around the field, he nosed through the bushes between the trees and weaved his way between the trees in the forest. He was started to see that he had his work cut out for him when it came to this game and his new found friend.

Keetah listens to the sounds of movement as the stallion stops counting. As the sounds move further away, she begins to droop. Finally she looks up and doesn't see him anywhere in the field. He had promised not to leave but he was no where in sight.
This had happened to her often enough to not be a surprise, but that didn't mean it didn't hurt. With a sigh Keetah stands up. She could go back to playing, it was fun and it would be better than dwelling on being left again.
So she looked around, hoping to find a butterfly or something to chase.

Amenophis wandered back out of the trees only to find the girl wandering back out into the field they had been playing in earlier. He frowned, did he think he had abandoned her or something because she had not seen him in the field? He would have probably thought the same thing. "What are you doing, did you get bored with me already?" He forced a smile to his face even though his heart ached for her, he was starting to worry about who could have possibly hurt her so bad or maybe he was over thinking things like he always did. He shook his head to clear his thoughts and the cob webs probably lurking in the corners. He walked over to the mare and looked down at her but then decided against it and laid down in front of her.

Suddenly full of absolute joy, Keetah bounces, beaming grin in full force. "You came back!" Forgetting herself for a moment, she lips at his fetlock before dropping her head in embarrassment and settling to the ground a few feet away from him.
"I'm sorry I spoiled the game I didn't mean to but I didn't hear you so I looked and didn't see you and you weren't there and you were gone and sometimes I get left because I don't know why but I hide and hide and it gets dark and the crickets jump on me and I didn't want to hide and hide and wonder and wait and be sad so I was going to find something fun to do but you didn't really leave and I'm so glad you didn't but I ruined the game because I didn't stay hiding and I'm really sorry but I'm glad you stayed and want to be my friend!" Even laying down in the grass she's fairly vibrating with energy and her grin seems truly irrepressible at this point.

Amenophis was absolutely beside himself, he felt like he had a child of his own for a moment in his life. He felt for a moment, no a split second like he wanted his lover to meet this bundle of energy but that was foolish. This little one probably had parents of her own right? Besides he had no intention of adopting anyone, he wanted children all of his own. He shook his head to clear his foolish thoughts from his mind, but the thoughts seemed to still linger. He simply nodded at the dark brown miniature mare and smiled as if it was foolish of her to think he wouldn't return for her.
"Its quite alright, I am just happy that you are happy again." He spoke the words with honesty, the thought that the little mare was upset with the thought he might have left her there, upset him a great deal. "Do you have parents or other friends miss Keetah?" Amenophis had noticed that it was indeed starting to get rather late, if the mare did have others watching after her, they were probably starting to get worried that she had not returned.

"I have Clay, he is my friend! And you are my friend and friends make each other happy and I am glad you are happy and I am happy and that is good because we are friends and that is good. Do you have parents and other friends? I don't have parents, not that I remember but I must have because I'm here and you can't be here without parents but I don't know them and that's okay because they are probably off doing important things and stuff but I bet your parents are very nice because you are very nice and nice people make the bestest of friends." Keetah is still quite happy and her words tumble over themselves trying to get out.

Amen smiled at the little ball of energy as she began to ramble on with such happiness. Her happiness and energy seemed to be almost contagious because his mood and spirits were lifting to such a high level he didn't even think it was possible. Perhaps this was what they needed, Amira and himself to get past their now shared nightmare. "I am not sure if I have parents, I would have to have parents to be here correct?" He frowned a little because he wished that he could remember, he wanted to so desperately but his mind just wouldn't bring the memories forth. His heart and spirits were still high though, he didn't let the lack of memories bring him down. "How would you like to meet my love? Perhaps we could take you in as adoptive parents?" He didn't want to make any promises but he knew that if this little ball of energy could melt his heart within just a few hours, he was sure that his love would adore her.

Keetah looks at Amenophis sideways. "I am not a foal. I am little, but I am as big as I am going to get." She says this firmly, with appropriate pauses. As though this is something she has had to say often and that is rarely understood.
"But if you want me to meet someone I would like to meet someone because maybe they could be my friend too and then I could have more friends and you can play with all your friends all at once and that sounds like it would be nice and fun and I don't know what parents do except that they take care of foals and I am not a foal but if they do something else then I guess it could be okay to have parents especially if they play and are friends and that sounds good." Keetah very quickly reverted back to her happy ramble, once she had established that she wasn't a foal.

Amenophis realized that the little mare had a good point. Parents were only there to take care of foals and watch over them to make sure nothing bad happened to them. But there had to be more that a parent was supposed to do right? "I am sorry, I do not know what all a parent is supposed to do.." He trailed off as if lost in thought, he really wished to say more but he had nothing more to say on the subject. He wished that he could be a father and had experience to talk about but it was not the case. His mind couldn't fathom his parents or anything about them, except that his mind would make up stories about them, things that possibly happened to them that would make them not exist now. "Perhaps parents are just there to protect and take care of foals..but surely they are there for more...I wish that I could just know the answer." He sighed heavily and looked down to the ground as if he was ashamed of himself, possibly because he couldn't remember or maybe it was because he had no parents?

Keetah noticed the sadness of her new friend and moves to nuzzle him. "It's okay. Maybe we can make up new things for parents to do." Once again her words coming with more appropriate pace, though this time as though she can feel their weight as she tries to comfort Amenophis.
"Yup! That's what we'll do and I'll meet your love and we'll all adopt each other and be a happy family even if it's not like normal families with parents and foals and stuff and then we'll all be friends and play together and learn what parents are all about because that sounds like a good thing to do and it will be fun and we'll all have each other and be a family!"

The stallion couldn't help but smile at her, a true and genuine smile. He really liked the idea that she had of what a family could be or how they could be together. "I like that idea, I like it a lot." He nuzzled her a little with gratitude and affection. "Lets go find my mate." He winked at her playfully, he wondered how long it would take them to find Amira. His black tail swayed behind him to keep the bugs away from him as he started to walk away. In his mind, he tried to remember where it was that she had been last or if they had a specific place set up to meet at any time. He didn't want to keep her waiting if that was the case, his eyes went from showing his happiness to showing his worry he was sure. He looked down at the ground as he walked as he tried to remember.

Keetah bounded ahead, jumping and twisting and pouncing on stray leaves. She'd dash after a passing bird, then skid to a stop to look at a shiny rock. After a time she trotted back towards Amenophis with a single blade of grass clutched in her teeth, a small red dot on the end of the grass bobbing with her movements.
Then, Keetah noticed Amenophis' worry. Carefully setting the ladybug laden grass down, she hurried over to her new family. "Is something wrong?" She almost asked more, but she didn't want to ask what she was worried about, that he was changing his mind about being family. Besides, Keetah knew Amenophis wouldn't do that to her. So it must be something else, something bad. And so she just stood there, looking at him, her large eyes even wider as she trembled slightly, afraid of what could get him looking like that.

"Forgive me, I seem to have forgotten where it was that I was supposed to see my lovely Amira." He spoke the words gently and with a soft smile. He was beating himself up because he couldn't remember and he couldn't really help it. "I'm sure we will find her though. We just have to look for her and it will take some time." He smiled at Keetah because he was sure it was going to be an adventure, but he hoped deep down that somehow he could find her easily or maybe she could find him. "Would you like to tell me stories of your adventures or things you have seen and liked while we walk?" He really enjoyed her spirit and energy about things she favored and how energetic she was period.
LydaLynn I am really sorry that it has taken me so long to get a reply to you. After you tag this back, we can start a new thread and bring Amira in <3

Keetah blinked, once. In a whisper almost as loud as her normal voice, "You lost her?" Her ears droop a bit at the prospect.
Then, with the sudden change of thought that is a normal part of being Keetah, she bounds to Amenophis and gives him a quick nuzzle before making a short hop backwards so she can see him again.
"It's okay, we'll find her!" there wasn't the slightest hesitation as she spoke what she knew must be fact. "We can look all over the place cause I'm good at looking and sometimes at finding and I won't forget what I'm looking for because you're here to remind me and we can keep looking until it is dark and then we have to go back to the cave or Clay will be worried but we could look again in the morning and I'll tell stories while we look like about the time when I saw snow and another mare my size but she had wings on her head and on her rump and she could make wind it was little wind but it still moved the snow on the ground some and we played and made shapes in the snow and then she left to go back to her family and . . . " Keetah keeps up a rambling conversation as they walk, her spirit bright.ImAHarumiBunny That's perfectly understandable. Don't worry about it. I'm glad you're back now. Send me a tag to the new thread when you have it started and I'll join right in.
