He didn't know what had possessed him to get away from his parents. He didn't like being alone and he defiantly didn't' have anything to hide behind now. He hadn't wandered that far, just a little aways from the lake, but he couldn't see Mama or Papa and he was starting to jump at every little sound he heard.
Shaking his head he trotted toward the river and stuck his nose in it. Sadly a fish chose that moment to swim by and he jumped back with the scales touched his nose. ".... fish.." He had to tell himself what it was so that he didn't get too scared.
That's what Mama had said. Just tell yourself there weren't any spooks around and there wouldn't be. Everything was safe by the river. Gran'da Remy made sure of that.

She had wandered off as well. Mister Draven was having a talk with Trev about things and, as much as she liked listening and learning from the things that he said, she didn't want to hear it right now. There were too many other things on her mind... Why 'father' was so cold... And why 'sister' was so mean... Were they really part of her family?
She stepped over a branch carefully, making sure not to trip over legs that were too short to move just right and too long to be anything other than awkward. She could smell water... There was a stream nearby. That was good. Cool water was always something good to think over.

Once he was sure the fish was gone he stuck his nose back in the water. He could get a drink as long as nothing else bumped into him. He still wished that Mama or Papa had come with him but they said he needed to get over it. Whatever 'it' was he was sure he didn't need to get over they just needed to stay with him. It wasn't scary that way.
Shaking his head he straightened up and looked around. There wasn't too much to eat that wasn't in the dark by the trees so he didn't quite know what to do with himself.

She paused, brow furrowing slightly at the sound of something moving. Mister Draven had always told them not to wander too far from 'home' because there were things in the forest... Bad things. Was there really something there? Was it one of the bad things? Did the 'bad things' even really exist?
She inched forward with great uncertainty, peering towards the river. "H-helloo... Is someone there?"

He hadn't heard someone sneek up on him and that frightened him almost as much as the voice from nowhere. "Nononononondon'teatme" He whined as he scrambled across the shallow patch in the river to get away from whatever it was that was going to eat him. Once he was safely across the water and had some distance between him and whatever it was he turned back around and watched the tree line as he panted.

Her eyes went wide as she suddenly heard a voice go on about being eaten. Oh no! There had been something bad in the woods! She let out a squeak as she scrambled back behind a tree. The soft glow of her wings could still be seen and that wasn't good... At least she didn't know that they could be seen. Had she known that she would've run alot farther. She certainly didn't want to be eaten either... Her mother would know and, even if she went to be with the spirits, her mother would still be able to find her and yell.

There was something back there. Something that was shinny. "I can see you! You can't eat me if i can see you! I run fast" He chirped at the whatever it was and danced slightly in place. As long as he could move faster than whatever it was then he'd be fine. You couldn't get eaten if it couldn't catch you.

"You don't want to eat me! I'd taste terrible!" Nevermind that she liked sweets and flowers and probably tasted delicious... Or that lying was bad. The monster wouldn't know that she was lying, would it?
Wait... Would a monster tell her not to eat it? Her brow furrowed slightly as she peered around the tree, violet eyes wide. "I eat plants. Are you a plant?" Could plants talk?

"You don't eat plants! You're trying to trick me so you can eat me!" Whatever it was glowed and it was a lier. That wasn't good and he defiantly should have run away before. He could do it now though, no wait, mama said that if you ran from a predictor after they'd decided to eat you then they'd defiantly chase you down. Back home had Papa and Gran'da Remy though. They could make the thing go away.
"I'll get my Papa and Gran'da if you try anything funny..."

"I do too eat plants!" She called back, snorting softly as she took a step out from behind the tree. "I'm not lying! Lying only gets you in trouble..." So did wandering off alone, aparantly.
She tilted her head, trying to catch sight of whatever it might've been that was yelling back at her. She didn't see anything. "How 'bout... I won't do anything funny if you don't. No eating and no tricking. Promise. I really do eat plants. I like flowers... And apples."

When the thing, other foal, stepped out from behind the tree he released a breath he didn't know he'd been holding. She couldn't eat him at least. She was too small. Though she did have those glowy things and he didn't know what they could do and he didn't like that.
"I never tried to eat you.... you snuck up on me!" So she'd been the bad one not him.

"Did not." Her nose wrinkled slightly as she looked at the colt. He seemed a little bit smaller than she was; certainly nothing to be afraid of. Just a colt... Nothing big, bad or scary. "Mother says we should introduce ourselves to others... My name's Memory. Who're you?"

"Did too!" She'd come up from behind him and since she hadn't announced herself she was sneaking up on him. It made perfect sense. "... Wadi.." He didn't know why something that could want to eat him woudl want to know is name but maybe that meant she was telling the truth and wouldn't eat him.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Wadi." She smiled as she bowed her head politely. Both Mother and Mister Draven had said that she should always do her best to be polite and that was just fine with her... She never wanted to be like the sister she never saw; so rude and not at all nice.

"You're really not gonna eat me?" She didn't seem that dangerous now and was starting to remind him of his sister. She didn't try to eat him thankfully but she did call him a .. scardey something all the time.
"Shouldn't you be with yer Mama?" So should be but she was a girl and she didn't seem like his Mama or sister enough to not be scared of anything.
