Agony had escaped from her mother and father’s sight once again. It was getting easier as she had finally figured out when they had their backs turned and when Rowan would be the busiest. She had thought about galloping off towards her usual place near the stream of where she first played with Nameless, but she had decided to scout out and discover more of the woodland’s territory. Her ears perched forwards as she slipped away from the herd and into the dark woods. It was almost midday with the sun at its highest peak in the sky. For the most part it was clear without a cloud in sight up above. It had been a rather hot day and Agony had found herself resting in the cool shade of the trees that grew where the herd resided or spending the afternoon by her mother’s side in case she thirsted for the refreshing milk that Regret gave. Agony smacked her lips together as the faint taste of her mother’s milk filled her mouth and she suddenly felt thirsty all of a sudden. She paused for a brief moment and had thought about going back to get a drink. But then she would be under the watch of both parents, the herd, and there was always Rowan who was usually left to baby-sit. She snorted and quickly shook her head. She would have to go back later when she was done with her little adventure.
Agony continued walking and found that the deeper most parts of the woodlands were quite cooler. She wasn’t sure how far she had walked but was pretty sure it was farther than she had expected considering that she couldn’t even hear her herd anymore or pick up their scent unless there was a breeze. She felt quite accomplished to make it this far out into the woods and knew that there were more areas to be discovered. With a satisfied smirk she swung her tail side to side and picked her gait up to a trot. Agony danced in the gentle breeze that played with her short, stubby mane and tail. Little giggles escaped from her vocals as she leaped up into the air and kicked her hind legs behind her. It felt so good to be away from her parents and herd but she had wished that she brought Nameless along with her, as he probably would’ve enjoyed this too.
The smile blossomed on her lips as she danced in between two trees. Agony didn’t want to leave so early but sometime her father would realize that his daughter was gone and would send Rowan out to find her. But for now she would cherish this moment and didn’t stop with her playful dancing.
