 As the day began to unfold the now unattached winged female lie beside her basket tattered and torn. Bright eyes gleaming as she looked upward toward the neverending blue sky. The smells so much more refined now as were the sounds she heard in her basket as she grew bigger and stronger. But the one thing the little one was looking for was that one particular scent, the voice as soft and lucid as the ocean rocking her gently back and forth in a warm secure feeling.
She blinked again picking up a scent causing her little hind quarters to rise from the ground she was sitting upon. Wings still tiny yet they wouldn't move as she hoped them to. A sound caught her curious ears to a large creature grazing not so far away. Just a length enough not to be reached without getting up and moving. But the scent... she knew it some how.
Feeling tired she sat there with a disappointed whinny.

The other baskets had vanished as she heard they always did. Though the little flutter mare knew Nathaniel would find his son waiting for him someday. Atleast in her relief one was left in her care that resembled her own coat hue and color of the ocean so late at night. This little one was precious for in her mother's likeness she carried Nathaniel wings. In a decision the filly of the ocean was named "Nitika" the angelic gemstone.
She heard the disgruntled whinny and smiled bringing full attention toward her daughter. A soft yet reassuring whicker uttered from her deep yet beautiful colored throat.
Still sitting there Nitika blinked catching onto her mother's scent once more causing herself to rise onto her long sledaer unsure legs. A hobble, then fall made her frown. But wanting to be close to her mother caused the filly to stand once more and try walking for the first time.

The attempt was something best described by a child for in her adventures to come this was the highlight of who she was becoming.
Raising up to her shaky legs the little Nitika stood there unstable afraid to move yet a drive deep inside was cheering her on to stand close to her mother. The mare's whickering gave the filly cherished hope and a piece of mind. Snorting she stepped forward feeling the somewhat grasp of stability kick in. A few falls beforehand taught her to hold her balance even more. Stepping forward she felt her little body rocking back and forth. Taking a deep breath she wavered but caught herself stepping outward once again feeling the weight of her whole body straighten even more.
Stepping outward another time she moved more freely now letting another footfall help her progress. Eyes widening her legs stretched out more till she lightly bumped agaist her mother's side. Blinking she whinied in a cute little squeak nuzzling the one she heard talk and sing to her numerous times in the dark cradle she grew within.
Saissis stood proudly leaning downward to wash the little one that whinnied her triumph in her first big adventure. So alike they were as the mare smiled warmly washing the foals deep blue coat. The little feathered wings still unworkable but time would allow them to spread gracefully and let her soar the skies. She whickered lightly showing her motherly instincts showing little Nitika just how special she really was.

Nitika butted her head playfully against Saissis shoulder. Blue matching blue they shined like saphires contrasting one another. It was clear to see that Nitika would grow in the grace of her mother but surely out size in her father's own image. She whinnied in a high pitched little squeak unable to speak as well or fluent as her mother did.
Saissis smiled and returned affection washing the foal's soft fuzzy coat. Today little Nitika was going to visit the wide spread world that just stretched for miles in any direction you looked. Time was in their favor as nothing short of happiness was keeping the bonded pair from being together exploring everything they could. Its little things like this that make being a parent shine above everything else.

Saissis looked at her little one with a shining heart. Today Nitika would see the world for the very first time. Perhaps even take a first flight with her mother. Hopes and dreams far surpassed expectation in the tranquil mare's eyes.
She nuzzled her daughter one last time and trotted away eyes always upon the child watching for fault and progress with every step. Pausing she flicked her tail and stood wating for Nitika to try and repeat what was shown to her.
Encouraging words of confidence were heard in gutteral whickers and soft breath blown out from her small muzzle. Nitika was a curious sort but always tried something in lu to making her mother quite proud and satisfied in her attempt.
Nitika felt at a loss when saissis trottred away from the bond they had created. She whinnied in protest stomping her little hoof with a sigh. Noticing though Saissis had stopped not too long after she left the filly was starting to understand. Moving her little legs once more she felt a more stable feel as one by one the process started all over again. This time though strenth replaced the stubborn insecurity which made her pick up speed in a cute little trot. Stopping near Saisis she pranced about looking for encouragemant.

Blue as the sky was the mare of the darkened swaying ocean longed to fly letting the wind lightly touch upon her tender wings as they fluttered to keep her above the ground. She wondered how fast her daughter would catch on if she did attempt it. Nuzzling her daughter she held faith and looked the youth directly in the eyes.
"Nitika. I know its early for this but I think we can atleast try to reach for the skies today. Alright?" she asked with soft nickers coming from her deep definied chest.
Fluttering her wings she galloped outstretching her legs to climb high in the air where she held place watching Nitika. "Flap your wings like I showed you. Start a little run and reach for the skies like I did. Don't cry if it doesn't work the first time you'll get it sooner than you think." she smiled with a nod. "Alright. Now try."
Nitika tilted her head following every motion her mother made with those gemstones of lucid violet sitting in wonder in her delicate little skull. She was so little yet her curiousity made her search for even more. Flicking her little tail she backed herself up preparing for her first flight. Swinging her little head back and forth she set her try into motion.
Prancing forward she lunged into a trot opening her wings to feel the air upon them. It was a strange feeling but she needed to try and make her mother proud.
Trotting faster into a gallop she ferverishly flapped her little wings trying to pull herself off the ground that held her like a chained animal. She grunted as her take off from the ground made the filly's body akward and wierd. Struggiling to reach her mother Nitika paniced scrambling for balance though gravity had another say pulling the little one down into a hard "thump" upon the stiff ground.
"Owie."

Saissis watched each time as little Nikita tried her hardest to catch onto flying but always landed on her little rump getting more discouraged. The mare studied her daughter's movements and unstability as she tried her pursuits. Putting two and two together Saissis realized the problem.
Nitika felt like crying but so much wanted to make her mother quite proud that she could fly. It was as if gravity had another say which genuinely was a direct "no". She snorted looking at her mother whom as little as she was kept in flight with wings so small and beautiful. Standing once more she began flapping her little wings madly praying this time it would work and she'd feel air beneath her tiny tender hooves.
Saissis decended in a lo flying maneuver watching Nitika proudly. She flitted over to where a posistion was held behind her daughter. Speaking softly in encouraging tones the mare motioned her daughter, "We're doing this together so you must pay attenetion." she noted explaining what they were doing.
Nitika flapped her little wings frantically as her mother grasped the base of her tail in her mouth gently. Flicking upward the mare pulled the filly up from the ground letting her balance herself and feel the difference. Nitika noticed the gravity was lessoning as she concentrated upon her mother's motions. She was actually in the air with Saissis.
She was flying!
Saissis released her tail and whickered what she had repeated once more beforehand. Nitika was actually holding flight quite well. The mare nodding her happiness for the second achievement in her daughter's wonderous life.
Nitika struggled a bit feeling her backside droop towards the ground. Snorting she yanked on it pulling herself straight up and hovering across from her mother.

Saissis smiled proudly seeing her daughter above the air as she was doing right now. Stability and balance is what made a good flight pattern for those blessed with devices for reaching to the skies. She nodded and rose higher keeping in check with Nitika and how she was doing.
Nitika followed after her mother balancing her weight and keeping note of what she was doing. It appeared that both lineage had combined nicely creating a youth whom could contemplate and decipher that which was nedded. Watching Saissis rise higher she followed in tow doing the exact motion till only her shadopw was lingering over the ground far below.
Saissis flutter her wings stretching her legs outward as her head dipped for some distance so Nitika could follow. Her tranquil orbs awaiting her daughter's reponse and maneuver in the way she held up in the air.
Nitika stretched her little legs letting her weight balance upon both ends making it easier as she kicked out both legs pushinbg herself further out with a touch of devoted speed. Smiling she paused and then watched her mother for further instructions.
Saissis smiled and whinnied her approval, "Very good Nitika. I'm so proud of you. Come lets fly together and then head down for a drink as the sun is getting warm." she nodded kicking out to soar through the clouds. Nitika was a natural which was a blessing one could never overlook.
Nitika followed after kicking out again sidling up to her mother's side where they fly side by side. Swimming in the ocean of blue the clouds looked so soft and fluffy as they flew threw them. "I can fly! Look mommy!" she giggled with another spurt of speed cirling around her mother.

Saissis felt the summer heat push upon her glistening darkened blue back now harboring a faint layer of perspiration on her wings as well. The need for thirst was too great in which the flying would need paused so she could regain the coolness in her system. Her warm loving eyes lying upon her daughter's accomplishments.
"Nitika I am thirsty so we must decend toward the water. Please keep in mind that landing is a bit harder than simply taking off."
Nitika noticed her mother's change of action watching her intently as her wing beats kept her stable above the ground.
"Okay mommy. I'll try when I see you land." she whinnied with a nod.
Saissis flitted her wings decending as she outstretched her legs for a smooth landing. Touching upon the ground one foot after the other to finally be stable on the ground.
Nitika followed down secondly following what her mother did on a wobbly attempt. She frowned stretching out her feet but forgetting to slow down in her decent. Incoming at a rapid speed the little winged filly crashed headlong into the ground till she lie there with a shocked face that her first landing made her takeoff look rather impressive. Frowning she got back up and walked head lowered toward her mother.
"I falled this time didn't I?" she asked with tears that welled in her little purple orbs.
Saissis nuzzled her with reassurance "Yes you did but you're learning still. Come let us drink for the sun is baking my tendser wings right now."

From that very moment history wrote itself continuing the reprise of the flutter and her beloved winged daughter. Many times they rose to the skies together decending in perfect unison as each touched upon the ground in choreograhed playfulness. Saissis knew her little one was going to grow eventually so in her own right she cradled that moment. Those times and events that would be written in generations to come. She figured her other babies were doing well so direct concentration lie on Nitika herself.
Each day the little one learned new things followed by the strength building in her precious little form. A graceful lady to fly in those vast skies mirroring a mare identical as she.
