Jasmine Lilly cautiously plucked a small apple from a low hanging branch, flinching slightly when the branch snapped back from the force. She thought herself lucky for finding an apple that wasn't riddled with worm holes or on the ground. Considering most trees were turning shades and shedding their fruits and leaves. She chewed thoughtfully as a cool breeze blew through her fur.
Some time later the cracking of fallen branches made her stop mid movement. She'd gotten ready to inspect another tree for possible apples when she'd heard it. Was there someone there? Blue eyes scanned the open area, not seeing anything. She carefully turned back to the tree she was currently inspecting.
The area was new to her, but it had that story book feel to it. She had suspicions that it was alive with flowers in the spring time. The trees were pleasantly spread out, not too close together, though it was surrounded by dense forest, she felt rather comfortable here. The only thing missing was a stream.

 He had wandered away from his arguing brothers even though one could not speak it was clear they were fighting by the yells of the one who could. He shook his mane out glad to be away from them the noise hurt his ears and he was glad to be in the forest no longer as scared as he had been. He was learning new things everyday and that not all things were scary. Just because something was big did not mean they would attack you. He kicked a stone and watched it bounce off another and plop into the stream he had come upon. He backup some but he felt the twigs cracking under his hooves. He looked up alarmed hoping no one that might be around here had heard the crack.
He decided to lay by the stream closing his eyes knowing that if he was needed his brother would set out to find him. They knew he came here to find peace and quiet and that they would sooner or later seek him out as they always did. He sighed enjoying the sun on his back content as a foal could ever be.

A leaf fell from a young tree and floated down in front of Jasmine's face, spooking her slightly. Sighing to herself for her lack of courage. One day she'd muster some up to talk to some one, maybe even enough to have a friend. But for now she would content herself with getting to know the area, that was always a good place to start. Though she'd been doing do for quite some months now. She wandered off a ways into the forest, unintentionally following the trickling sound of a stream, the one thing she thought was missing from the almost perfect place. Perhaps if the stream wasn't too far she could just stay there? Though it seemed like it might be far from others. Though others frightened her so...
Blue eyes landed on the source of the trickling. Without noticing the resting foal not too far off she peered into the flowing water as it ran over the algae covered rocks. It was probably too cold to see any fish swim by or any turtles plopping into the current, but she dipped her muzzle in and took a long drink.

He was startled when he saw a mare appear from the trees looking cautious as she approached the stream. He watched her from the shade of the trees as she took a long drink of water not seeming to have noticed him. He was staring at her thinking about how much she looked like him in a way they were both black an white! He thought she looked friendly she did not have spikes or giant wings but a long flowing mane. He did not know how long he watched her but eventually he let his feet lead him out of the trees into view. Of course he was smaller than her but he walked up to the stream slowly waiting for her to finish drinking being polite.

 Wallace stood silently in the shadows, watching over the little stream he secretly thought of as his. Whenever he managed to get out of the teepee, this would be the first place he'd go. He would stalk his prey as they drank the cool water, defenseless and unsuspecting. Today, however, there was different prey. The unikalona watched. Just the foal at first, then the mare.
With a small roll of his eyes, he sighed. No other animals would come to drink in this spot if horses were around. They were big and his usual prey scared easily. As his stomach growled loudly, Wallace tried to be as stealthy as he could in moving up the stream. If he needed, he could eat some of the grass that was untouched by the weather. He grimaced at the thought, but he'd do whatever was neccessary.

Jasmine heard something behind her, rustling of leaves and small snapping of twigs. Her heart started to quicken before she even turned to see what it was. She decided to slowly move and take a peek behind her, what her blue eyes met was something much smaller than she had expected, but no less startling. A little winged foal with an amazingly white pelt stood behind her, watching her with pale eyes. Her own eyes widened as she turned around, then backed away, still unsure. "H-how long h-h-hh-" Her voice shook so badly that she had to close her mouth and try to steady her voice. "How l-long have you been...been there e-exactly?" Blue eyes took a moment to drift past the foal to look for parents some where near by and upon not seeing anyone she focused back on the foal.
Jasmine took another step back and she heard the splash before she felt the cold rushing water soak into the long fur at her hooves. She shivered from the coldness and lifted her hoof out of the water, leaving her unbalanced but she did not take a step back toward the foal.

His heart dropped when he heard someone calling out into the trees. Had someone heard the twig crack under his hooves? He slowly looked from behind a tree and noticed a mare who was staring at her with wide eyes. He thought she looked like him! She was black and white and not very scary looking..Could she be friendly? He wanted to make a good impression on the mare "I have been standing here for awhile but i never knew there was a mare over here" his eyes are watching her he feels that she is frightened but he has no idea why.
He laughs when she backs up into the water grinning now at her but seeing her unsmiling face made his dissipear. "Miss..? Are you ok?" he frowns at her now worried about what he might of just did.
If he knew of the stallion lurking in the shadows he himself would of been scared. For now though things unnoticed did not cause any harm.

Wallace allowed his attention to wander back toward the two horses, curious. His brow furrowed as he examined the situation. The massive stallion took a step toward them when he heard the mare's reaction, ready to step in. It took onlya moment for him to realize the mare was in no danger and he froze, watching the odd pair. The foal wasn't frightening at all. He had no horns or fangs or a sharp tail, or even a scary personality.
He snorted to himself quietly. How bizarre. With a quick stretch of his wings, the hybrid settled in, watching the pair. He'd truly never seen anything so odd.

Jasmine tried to rationalize with her fear. What was possibly frightening about this foal? He was smaller than her, clearly there was nothing she should be frightened of, but frightened she was. She watched his smile falter and heard his childlike voice ask her if she was okay. She willed herself to take a step forward, she couldn't keep her leg held up any longer. "M-m-mme?" I-you just fr-fr-frightened m-me iss all." She blew out a breath trying to steady herself. It would do no good to frighten the foal due to her being frightened. It was a silly circle...
