 Serenity: For once she was down in the valley, her human Tewa had work to do, which rarely brought her from the mountains, and as such she was let loose in the meadows to graze. They were beautiful meadows, and while snow covered most of it, there was still grass to be found once one dug deep enough, something that Tewa made a point to show her how to do in her first week of life from the basket. After all being born in the middle of winter meant one had to learn how to survive the rough of it.
So off into the meadows she had trotted in search of something to occupy her time, for she knew she'd be here for the good portion of the day. Ears flicked a bit at the sounds of the area about and dual colored eyes sought out the source of each sound. Gently she trotted towards the brook that had yet to freeze, bowing her head down she took a drink.
That's when she saw him. He was by anyone's standards very very unique looking, and to her that made him very beautiful. Add to that the fact that their was no one but him in the area, it seemed to her she'd found herself someone to talk to. And so up to him she moved until she came next to him and sat, like a dog and watched, curious as ever this strange looking one.*

 It was a surprisingly warm day in this snowy season. Isen Continued to graze, digging at the earth which was nearly completely frozen below him. His eyes covered in the thick layer of ice could only make out faint shapes and colors. This in tun made all his senses that much better. Feeling someone eyes upon him as well as the sound the little filly made as she came over, caused him to stop. Lifting his great head up from the snowy earth, his breath visible in the cold winter air. Masking the fact that it was like that all year round for him. Looking down he could make out little brown spots in a sea of white and snorted a bit in surprise. He could tell from the small figure he had nothing to be threatened from, and assumed it was merely a foal. In a voice as hallow and cold as the winter echoing off of the mountains he spoke,
" Hello child"

Serenity: *She gave the most enchantingly warm smile to the one before her, he was nice, he didn't exactly look the part but something about him told her he was and she liked him. Like any child her choices were made instantaneous and with out regret.*
My names Serenity. *She said happily as she continued to sit there watching him.* Aren't you cold? *She added after a moment, noticing he was surrounded in ice. This of course made her feel a bit bad for him, so she scooted closer to him hoping to give him some of her body heat.* It's probably because you're alone *She said with a firm nod more to herself than him.* I noticed when there are more around there is more heat to share. I'll share mine with you. *She chirped in happy as a jay bird to be a little helper to someone so unique, never once thinking he might find her a bit offensive in her lack of concern for personal space.*
You must be an extra special Angel *She said after a moments pause, as she noticed the two horns on his head, not sure herself if they were ice or real but not really caring one way or the other she continued.* Joe says that angels have horns and you have two, you must be an extra special one. *She was so excited to see someone new, and so unique she'd begun to repeat herself.* You're a very beautiful Angel *She added, it was obvious in her innocent yet charming way she was being honest with him to, she held no fear for this stranger were others might.*

A bit puzzled by this young filly accusations about him he felt a twinge inside. he knew that he was alone, and that he was cold. A sadness melted inside but then froze as he was. He was denied the tears to cry for his loneliness but still he stood still, looking down towards her.
He wasnt sure how to react to this closeness, the feel of the heat next to him. Something he hadnt felt for a while. which was warmth. He had gotten so use to the ice around him that he had forgotten all about warmth. This made him start to wish to forget it again, because he knew that he was destined to be cold and alone for the rest of his days.
All this was a mere thought inside Isen's head. one that had passed in mere seconds which felt like years. Remembering his manners and that it was an innocent which he was speaking to he looked down to her lowering his head. His voice rang with that of two. One completely cold and ruthless and the other kind and gentle. They rand both at once causing the hallow noise that would come out. The noise of two voices.
" What a beautiful name.I am Isen Inferno. Though i am cold it is by chooooice.. i guess. I thank you fooor sharing though please, dont lean toooo looong. Im afraid you might freeze"
Lifting his feet the sound of hissing and cracking could be heard as he continuously moved his legs, as to they wouldnt freeze to the ground completely. as he lifted them however, hoof prints and indentations where left. leaving thick spears of ice about 2 inches long protruding from the ground.
" Aaaangel? That i muuust say is a new one... I dont mind for you to call me thaaat.. you truely are innocent not to be afraid of me... but tell me... why are you out here.. Aloooone.. Serenity?"

Serenity: *She smiled, he said she could call him that, which to her meant he was. She had after all been told that angels take on many many different forms, and to her he was very beautiful. She could have sworn she almost saw him cry, she definitely felt it for a minute, like a whisper of sorts speaking to her heart and to such she leaned against him just a bit more.* I'll be your friend if you're alone. *She said offering him something he seemed to be missing. She was like that though, for most often she was the lonely one so she could very much understand the feeling. If it wasn't for Tewa and Tewa's family she'd be very lonely, too innocent and young yet was she to realize that if it wasn't for Tewa herself Serenity wouldn't be around.*
Oh. *She said as he explained he that he liked the cold, or at least that's how it seemed.* I don't like the cold *She said quickly but filled in so as to not make him feel alone again.* But I like you and if you like the cold I will like the cold too. *And it was obvious that she actually meant it. I like your name Isen Inferno. It's pretty like you. *She added after a second with a bubblish smile.
When she saw the ice cracking with each move she smiled* you must be an Ice Angel *She was guessing.* I like Ice, even if it's cold, it's fun. And when the sun touches it in the morning it makes the earth glow. It's really pretty. *She smiled thinking how her new Ice angel friend was very special and how lucky she was to have found him. Then he inquired to her being alone.*
Oh I'm okay here alone, Tewa said it's safe here as long as I don't wander off. *Though he'd have no clue who Tewa was, it was obvious that who ever it was she spoke of was something of a caretaker to the little filly.*

"Thank you little one for that offer" Isen dipped his head lightly. Far be it from him to act nasty to the little ones and he never would. They where all innocent and it wasnt until they grew that they where guilty. Hearing her next words he chuckled a bit and said as softly as his eerie voice was able to,
"Ohh child it isnt that i like the cold, im merely use to it. Even on the hottest of days, i am still cold."
Looking down he smiled a bit and wavered as the ice kept trying to keep him to the ground. Though no matter how thick it got, he would always be able to break it and move at least/ From place to place for no other reason than to just keep moving. Listening to her next words he quickly recovered from his thoughts.
" Tewa? She must be your mother than, do you have no father?"

Serenity: *An ear flickered as she thought about it.* No, Tewa's a two legger *She said, having heard the word from other soquili's a few times enough to know the difference between soquili parents and a two legger.* I don't have a mommy. *Or a daddy for that matter but she forgot to add that; more than likely he'd realize rather quickly and she wouldn't have to.
Hearing his words, now understanding he didn't like the cold so much she leaned against him even more, uncaring of the cold she felt.* I'll warm you! *She said, and while it was the most innocent of things for her to say, he could see the truth in it. For she was rather readable, her voice, her expressions so open, so honest, with out fear, or judgment.
And who knows, maybe she would warm him, if not his body then his heart for it was obvious to him and any who might pass by that this little one saw no difference in this icy stallion, she saw with the eyes of a child, and as all know children can see things that most, who have grown, have forgotten how to see. To look on her face he would see that what she saw was something beautiful, complex, but beautiful, it was there on her face when she looked at him. Aren't children the most wonderful mirrors.*

" I'm sorry to hear that little oooone.." The duo tones in his voice wavered a second, feeling a bit bad for her. But certainly she was being taken care of, thus had the feeling ceased. Feeling her lean closer he smiled a bit but moved to the side soon after. He knew full well that if she pressed too close for too long of a time, she would start to freeze. The ice would insure that he would never have anyone close to him for very long.
His head came down and drew close to her face, his eyes faintly, ever so fainly visible through the ice. They where the lightest blue almost white which made his eyes almost invisible in the mist of the ice. But with those eyes he looked hard to see her own duo colored eyes and said gently.
" Don't worry about me moving away, i juuuuust dont want you toooo freeze."

Serenity: *She smiled warmly at him as he came ever so close to her face, those dual colored hues, one golden and alive like fire, the other as cold as ice like his met his with out question and she nodded almost blushing at this. She did feel the cold, and she didn't mind it.. but she enjoyed the warm much more. Still she let him back away, and when he was done backing away and she felt warmer again she pressed against him again.*
It's okay, I'll share my heat with you little by little *She said with the most brilliant smile in his direction. It was obvious she'd already decided it was her job to make sure he was warm, at her own expense, and she wasn't going to let him tell her no.* Everyone deserves to be warm at least sometime *She said not once breaking eye contact with him.* And and.. When I'm hot, you can help me *She said with a chuckle of warmth.* deal!?

He chuckled a bit and shook his head at her silly-ness but agreed with a simple " deal little one". He hoped that she would always stay as she was for what little time he had known her, he had yet to meet a more innocent presence in these harsh lands. Looking down to her again he looked all around them. The sky had grown dark and the wolves where starting to howl into the blackened sky. Looking back down to her he said in a quieter voice, which seemed to make it all the more eerie.
"Little one, you should get back to your Caretaker soon. I feel the wolves might see you as a snack in their endless hunger.. or perhaps something worse lurks in these woods."

Serenity: *She'd been so captivated by this one next to her that she really hadn't noticed the sun shifting in the sky. At his words of concern she blinked and began to look about The sound of the wolves kind of caught her off gaurd. From what she knew, and that wasn't much, there hadn't been wolves down this path for some time. The thought instantly turned her mind to Tewa, would she be okay alone. Yep not once did the little filly worry about her own safty. Such was the way of things with her.
Shifting up onto all fours she smiled warmly to her new friend.* I need to make sure she's safe. *She said and then gave a friendly nuzzle to his flank before she began to trot off, accustomed to being alone, she gave a slight thought to when she might next see her new friend. She wanted to make sure he knew she meant it when she said she'd keep him warm so next time she saw him she'd do her best to not get too cold where he'd need to pull away from her. She kinna felt like she failed when he did that but tried to understand, after all she also didn't want to turn into snow, and he seemed to have some sort of magic that let him.
Maybe he was an angel? That thought tickled her, she'd been meeting lots of angels lately, she rather liked it.

Isen watched the young filly dart off past his visual point, and though he could not see her he still kept his ears open. He could hear her little footsteps as she wondered off and kept them like that till they where no more. The wolves sounded like they where far enough away that she shouldnt be bothered by them and so didnt worry. Looking to the snow that he could see so clearly as it was just a color, he then continued to graze. Hearing only the wind and the far cry of wolves,

Serenity: *She made her way to Tewa with out much of an issue, Tewa having met her half of the way there. Yes it had been getting dark, and like any being of her youth the dark was both mysterious and a bit frightening, but being with Tewa helped to take the edge off of the midnight. As she walked along the windy path up the mountain her thoughts turned inward, and upon the one she'd met that day.
She could still see the ice falling from his body, and clinging to it, it was a curious thing, but at the same time she began to think about him she pondered what life would be like if all one felt was the cold. She realized he must be rather lonely having to push others away just so that they wouldn't get hurt, and such thoughts saddened her, she wasn't sure how she cuold make it better but she really wanted to.
As she thought and walked upwards towards home Tewa chatted with her, seemingly unscathed by the night's wild. She talked of needing more time down in the valley to learn more from the wise woman of their tribe, Tewa was studying medicines. She mentioned going back down on the morrow and how she planned on taking serenity with her, this of course made her smile, this would give her yet another chance to meet the two horned angel again.
Yes, she liked him so she was looking forward to that, wondering if he'd be there. She also wondered where he went when it got dark. In her mind she fashioned together many stories of where he might go, what he might do, and it was to such thoughts that she fell asleep.*
