A warm breeze made it’s way through the forest rustling leaves on the trees and shaking bushes as it went. As it entered a large clearing it picked up scattering leaves and flower petals all while messing up the dark purple mane of the young colt lying in the shade. He waited, perfectly still, until it stopped raging before shaking his head lightly to fix his hair. Much to his dismay the flowers that his sister had taken so much time to weave into the hair flopped out like lazy frogs.
Gasping he pressed his head directly onto each flower one by one trying to get them back into place. Only one came up with his head before it joined the others back on the ground.
His lips quivered slightly. His sister would be upset that he hadn’t kept the flowers in place. She had only just left to go collect his ‘crown’. How would she react to know that he couldn’t even act like a lady long enough for her to go home and return? He was a failure as a princess. He sniffled sadly at the thought and bowed his head to stare at the ground. It was no surprise to him to see tiny droplets splashing on to his ground.

The black filly darted after the leaves, watching as the summer wind lifted and scattered them for a while. She managed to snatch one out of the air, and then as she moved into the lea of the trees, she poofed it out of her mouth, casting her eyes around the clearing she'd stumbled into.
There was someone else here; young and morose looking - a dark colt at first glance - but no - there was a splash of lighter colour that started past his middle, as though his front was dirty and someone had dunked his rear in water and left the rest.
'What's up?' she said, after striding right over to him.

He jumped slightly hearing another's voice. For a moment he thought that his sister had returned and was disguising her voice. As he lifted his head he found that this wasn't the case at all. Instead of his creamy orange sister he found a filly black as charcoal coming his way.
He sniffed a little trying to pull himself together for her but failed miserably. "I...I just...the flowers came out...and my sister...and the crown...and...and..." His words were separated by tears and sniffles until he finally started sobbing. "I can't be a princess like this!!!" Two tiny streams had started running from his eyes nearly non-stop.
This was the biggest crisis he had experienced so far. His sister would be disappointed and that was worse then the time last week when he had been kidnapped and hidden away in a cave all for his sister's amusement. He could imagine the look on her face and that only made the tears fall in greater speeds.

Oh. My. Good grief! Sunari's eyes rolled skywards, a very adult look of contempt crossing her face for a mere moment. She looked down at the sniffling, and then sobbing colt, wondering if she'd get in too much trouble for administering a swift kick to his behind.
'Jeez,' she said, huffing slightly.
'I thought you might be hurt or something! And Princess?'
Sunari looked confused, wasn't that the female?
'You're not a Princess, you're not even a girl, why would you care about losing flowers?'
This was a great deal too much for her to handle as a filly, a boy dresing up as a filly, and then dissolving into tears because of broken flowers was a little above her wordly experience thus far.

Hurt? He could see no reason why he would be hurt. The princesses in the stories were treated cruelly sometimes but he couldn't recall a time when they had actually been injured. He was about to voice this through his tears, which were slowly stopping, when she spoke again.
Fionn whimpered a little and stared at her with hurt and watery eyes.
"I...I don't have to be a girl..." He mumbled lowering his gaze to the ground. With one hoof he nudged at one of the fallen flowers sadly. "Etoile...she says I make...the best princess...so...I have to try my best." He nodded his head slowly biting at the edge of his lip. "But I messed up already."

'Yeah, you kind of really do.' Sunari insisted, her words showing that her temper as fraying only moments after meeting this colt.
'Princesses are female. I have no clue what you are, but you really need to stop crying. You're a colt, and they don't cry over broken flowers.' she added, letting out a huff.
'Colts play, they get in trouble, and they annoy their sisters.' she was of course speaking only from her experience, but neither her mother nor her grandmother seemed to think that was a big problem so she assumed that her brother Riffen's behaviour was normal and this colts..well, not so much!
'Besides, sitting around here wailing gives away your location. You can get attacked doing silly things like that.'

Nothing she said improved the situation for Fionn. He had grown accustomed to girls being nice and playful. This was something very new for him and he didn't like it at all.
"I...I can be both..." He protested feebly. He could be a boy and a princess besides her description of a colt didn't sound like him at all. It reminded him of his brothers a good deal but not him. He loved his sisters and wouldn't do anything to bother them if he could help it and he really hated getting in trouble. He did love to play though. He played story time with his sisters and whatever his brothers wanted to do with them.
As she mentioned that he could get attacked his tears dried up like a desert. For a while he did nothing but stare at her wide-eyed in disbelief. "Who...who would attack me...? I'm...they don't hurt the princess...never...the princess is important to the story..."

Sunari shook her head - the truth hurt, but that was what she was giving him. She could be brutally blunt, but always honest.
'Why would you want to be? Do you not realise that you'll be teased horribly by those outside of your family? Foals can be cruel.' she said matter of factly. She snorted faintly, pleased that he'd seemed to have stopped crying, but now she had something else to explain to him.
'This isn't a story. This is real, all this around you, that's real. You're probably thinking I'm a mean monster, but I'm not. There are real monsters out there, they are Soquili like you and me, but they will hurt us.'

His father had always told him that he shouldn't hate anyone but at the moment he was having a hard time with that. She was so mean to him, not like his family at all. He was staring holes into the ground as she spoke doing all he could to not cry any more around her.
She wasn't kind, or gentle or anything that a girl should be. If what she was telling him was true, that what he was experiancing now wasn't the 'real world' then he didn't want to be part of that world. Fionn didn't want to spend his days dealing with cruel people like her, he didn't think she was a monster but she certainly wasn't a lady.
"Go away..." He muttered getting to his feet preparing to leave. "I...don't care...I'll be teased...I'm still me..." The thought of running into others like her made him worry but he didn't want to act like anyone but himself. Teasing was just something he'd have to deal with it seemed. "I...like me..."

Sunari rolled her shoulders in what could be called a shrug;
'Fine, fair enough I'll leave you. I knew you wouldn't want to listen to the truth, talking of princesses and stories..wait till you get older. Us foals might tease you, but adults won't forgive you acting like a filly.'
Her statements rolled easily off her tongue - well, it was easy enough to talk this way, especially after hearing her Grandmother, Mother and Aunt chatter on and on about various subjects.
'You okay to get home?' she asked. She might have been horribly straight with him, but she wasn't intentionally vicious. She didn't see the point of skirting around the truth. He didn't come across as one who was capable of travelling anywhere, but that was a thought she kept to herself for once.

Whether he didn't believe her or just didn't care what she had to say even he didn't know. What he did know was that everyone that he had met prior to her had been quite accepting of the way he was. What did it matter that they were all related to him?
"Yes I am..." He muttered turning his back on the filly. It was not the polite behavior that his parents wanted him to have but she had been mean to him even if she hadn't meant it.
As he began to walk off towards his home he remembered that Etoile was going to be coming back to this spot with his crown. He would have to explain things to her and send Astral or his dad to get her because he wouldn't be going back. Not when there was a chance of running into the black filly again.
