Feels like, I'm standing in a timeless dream of light mists, of pale amber rose. Feels like, I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent. Touching, discovering you. Those days, of warm rains come rushing back to me, miles of windless, summer night air. Secret moments, shared in the heat of the afternoon. Out of the stillness, soft spoken words: I love you, always forever. Near and far, closer together. Everywhere, I will be with you. Everything, I will do for you. I love you, always forever You've got, the most unbelievable eyes I've ever seen. You've got, me almost melt away. As we lay there, under a blue sky with pure white stars. Exotic sweetness, a magical time. A magical time it had been. I felt his presence next to me, his toung warming my skin. I looked down the cliff in disbelife, She's gone...she's actually gone...I'm free to live! Pure ecstacy plagued my heart. Suddenly, the day seemed brighter, the rain seeming lighter. My heart thudded as his hooves beat against the gravel. My voice was quiet as I spoke, She's gone...gone forever... I looked at him, my face beaming, She's gone! Am I going mad? No...well I am mad with joy...Oh dearest Titan, these are not tears of sorrow, but tears of joy. She is gone, gone from our lives, never to hide in the shadows only to come out at night and strike. Impailed she is by the jagged rocks that lie below. I looked back at the weeping father, Though it was her who killed the youngster... Sorrow flooded my bod as I watched him greive. So young...I can feel for him, as can you Titan. I feel that if I had given my self to my sister so many years ago, the young one wouldn't be dead... My voice trailed off as I looked back out across the gorge. The mist rose up from the heat of the rain, some how, in the mist, I saw my sister, her form twisting and turning, a grin of evil stretched her facade. I looked away and burried my head into his barrel. His scent was enough to calm me. My voice was muffled as I spoke, You should be so proud Titan... He heard I loved him, he heard I cared, he heard I miscarried. And he was never scared. Did he run, from the one who conceived his child? No, he stayed put, by my side, through thick and thin. Yesterday's Gone, there's no return. No return to yesterday, no return to tomorrow. No return to today. Watch what you say, what you do. You never know, I might end up like you...

I doze lazily in the early morning sun, the massive yellow ball just beginning to peek over the horizon. I'm in limbo between awake and asleep, contemplating getting up and awakening the children. Santico always wakes up first, so he's probably already out and about. Laria is a yearling now, and Karabi has reached her third birthday. She's grown up so quickly- it seems like only yesterday I found her alone and abandoned in a meadow. But no, it's been nearly three years now. It does not even seem that Laria should be a year old. Surely it has not been that long since I birthed her, but it has. She is growing into a beautiful little bay ess, and one can easily see that she carries in her veins her father's blood. She displays little of me, and only the manner in which she carries herself is characteristic of the Arabian of which heritage I am. I have noticed her mimicking me in almost everything I do, and I seem to be her role model, but her father she holds in her mind like a god. She gazes upon him with an adoration like I never felt for my sire. She is such a perfect little filly.
Suddenly I feel the warm mug of Santico on my nape, his velveteen muzzle placing a gentle nudge upon it. I awaken fully, blinking with a tired lovingness. "Good morning, my love." I begin to roll onto my stilts when his words come to my auds. He is leaving again? My heart aches, but I hope it will not be for as long this time. I nod sadly, watching him as he heads off. I wonder where he is going- he seemed as if something was horribly wrong. This is not characteristic of him. Concern is reflected in my optics as I make my way to a standing position. I go about my morning routine alone: I will awaken Laria and Karabi and take them to the stream for a drink, then we will go to the small grassy knoll for breakfast. I know this will not last much longer- doubtless Karabi will begin to separate herself from us now that she is an adult. She may even go find a herd of her own. I will miss her dearly, but I know that that is the way life is. I'm sure I will see her around if she does decide to leave.
I place a soft nuzzle upon Laria's shoulder, and at first she does not respond, so I repeat the gesture. This time she reluctantly raises her slightly-dished tiara, blinking sleepily in the dawn's light. "Good morning, Laria." She nods in response, still obviously half asleep. She will be up momentarily, I wager. Then I turn to Karabi, who always sleeps to the left of me and Laria the right. But my orbs are met with a surprise- she is not there! Only the flattened grass shows where she had been sleeping. This can't be right, she would never leave without at least saying goodbye. Glancing over at my youngest daughter, she is at her feet and beside me, fully awake now. "Mother, where is Karabi? Where is father?" Rather suddenly, I realize the connection. Santico has gone off to find her. Does he truly expect me to wait here while he seeks her? Not even close.
"Come, Laria." I pick up a trot, and am grateful that the flicka does not question me, but merely strides directly behind me. The air is still thick with the musky, yet sweet smell of the one I hold so dear. Santico only left a few minutes ago, I should be able to track him with little effort. I'm a bit surprised as I soon find myself in The Lost Garden. Surely the filly had not come here, I expected her to be in another light terra. But no, there is Santico in the distance, his back facing me. My flints begin to pound not grass, but stone as I make my way toward him. He has halted, so I suppose on his other side will be Karabi. Relief fills me- she is safe.
But as I round my mate, I stop dead in my tracks. There before him lies the form of our daughter, dried blood coming from her cracked skull and her hind end. This cannot be! I am having a horrid nightmare. But I feel Laria pressing up against me, her body heat letting me know that I am awake. "Mamma, what's wrong with Karabi?" Her voice is shaky- she knows that something horrible has happened to her sister. "Karabi..." I take a step toward her unmoving form, suddenly becoming aware of the fact that the entire world has gone blurred. Of course- I'm crying. My bodice crumbles to the earth, my face pressing against the cold stone. "No..." I sob. I feel Laria lying beside me, her bodice pressed tightly against mine. "Father, wake her up, tell her to get up!" Her words are panicked, and I can hear her sniffling as well. "Wake her up, Father!" I can almost hear her thoughts in my head- she can't be dead! Karabi can't be dead! She is immortal! She can't be dead! But within the depths of her heart, she knows. Karabi is gone.

So bottle up old love, And throw it out to sea, Watch it blow away as you cry A year has passed The seasons go
The summer days begin to leave. Ah, the glory of the world, especially when suspended in this heat of summer. The glory of the world used to be so good, spending the endless days with Zephyr, young Larai, and out growing Karabi. The sparking waters filling the stoned lake-bottoms. The fresh moist grass flattened by our heavy weights, yet so cooling during the summer months. The gleaming heavens above us, yet blocked with clouds. How I wished it was the winter season; the cool snow climbing our stilts, the chilly air surrounding us, and most of all the amazement we spread amongst each other in cherish. Ah, life could be so giving, so loving. Yet empty holes were always made in someone's heart. Even with hunters among us months ago when Black Hawk's bay vixen, Dawn, died. Now we were bewildered by our own daughter's death. It felt as if only a few days since I had first met her. She seemed full of life, full of love. Even with the fire in the back of our heads, she never let that get her down. She was always so good to us, always listened. Only once had she felt miserable and the green monster took over. It didn't kill us though. It was one step in raising our daughters. Smiles had always captured my mind when Karabi was around. She was some horse. Yes, she was some horse with that different touch. The touch of love, enjoyment, and just everything. No stallion would ever be able to enjoy that special quality that she gave us. No, never would she.
It would be hard to get on with life. Telling the ones she was close with, and telling Zephyr. Oh, Zephyr, she wouldn't believe me. She will think it is a lie. She will think she has moved on to something better. The day felt as if it broke. In her eyes I saw nothing. No love beyond the tears. In her eyes I see nothing, no love behind her tears. The simple words spoken. My body rocking. She was a love that should have lasted years. I can't take this anymore. I want to walk alone. Take my time. Her thoughts filling what i thought. Her last thoughts. Wishing, she wakes up, makes up. I see nothing. She cried for no one. My love is dead, yet I can't think, you would think I would need you. No, I don't. I need my time. I need alone. I must. I want to comfort you, I need my own time. My velvets running over her serpentine. Zephyr coming behind me, dropping to my side. I wanted to run, I wanted to cry alone. I no longer need to see my daughter's dead body. I wanted to find the thing that killed her. I don't believe me. My visions blurred as I hid my crown. I didn't want to see. If any of us, it should have been me to die. Not such a young flicka. It just wasn't right. Nothing was.
Father wake her up, wake her up! The nudges of Laria got urgent. My breathing labored with tears. I looked back at her. I shook my crown and placed it on the hard ground. My velvets parted no words releasing. How I wish I could. I wish she could understand her sister's death. It was most likely hardest on Zephyr. My sides heaving slightly as I turned my crown to her again. Dried tears streaking down my facade, How I wish I could Larai, how I wish I could. This shouldn't have happened. It shouldn't have. No, I just can't, I just can't take it. I smashed the face of my crown against the hard landscape. Pain piercing through my body. I didn't mind it, but instead ignored it. I laid to my side, tears flooding like a river down my facade. I stood and shook. Tears still overcoming me. I was shaky on my stilts. A part of my heart missing. Karabi, karabi, karabi. Why? Why did you leave us? Why? It shouldn't have been you. Her pools were wide open. Yet a glint in them told me she had gone stressed, yet still full of life.
I tried to smile. It almost impossible though. I had turned to Zephyr, my eyes showing sympathy. I took a unbalanced step towards her. Zephyr, Laria. I-I-I am so confused. My serpentine wrapping around Zephyr's. I could feel her warm body heat radiating onto mine. I pressed my chest against her, leaning into her gently. Scrapes on my face were nothing. Though, the air filled with the smell of rain, I turned to the barren landscape, a slight cliff, I could slightly imagine what happened. Glances reaching my opticals. I could see what Karabi did. Or at least I thought. Though all I could see is what happened after Karabi's death. A small dream almost. My calls were real, but the fear placed in my heart as I watched the descend. The dappled body flying downward. Cackles filling the air. What was happening? I unwrapped my serpentine from Zephyr's and shakily walking step over step over to where I witnessed in a thought. I looked down to the rocky bottom, making sure to keep my balance.
The rocky bottom is what I saw. Yet, not the only thing. Like a giant red swimming pool had splashed its ghastly liquids among the rocks. Limp body hanging upon the sharp points. Red blood was dried along the tips of her daggers. A sharp smirk placed on her facade. It was her. She deserved what she did. A death for a death. Just like an eye for an eye. This time a life for a life. Dragging my hind daggers upon the landscape I made my way to return to Zephyr. It wasn't fair. Tears still forming in the backs of my opticals. It is such a nightmare. This wasn't happening. I shook it out of my mind. We should leave, it is no use, she is far g-go-gone by now. We must tell Black Hawk immediately. If you wish to spend some time alone with Karabi, I can take Laria back. I don't mind either way. I spoke with tears jammed in my throat. I rounded Zephyr, her stilts placed firmly in the ground. Tears blocked my breathing and I let out a few small coughs letting the wet mucous drip from my mouth. Wet still in my eyes though. My long black tassels flying at my sides. I placed a reassuring muzzle onto Zephyr shoulder, telling her I was here for her to cry on. She could lean on me, when she wasn't strong. I wasn't planning to leave her anytime soon. Nope, not soon.
I looked to Laria and turned to her. Tears were choking Laria but she managed to keep them down. Just like I did when I heard about my father's death. It was almost a surprise to me. Yet, shock still stung my heart to think about it. Now twice the pain surged through my heart. Laria, Karabi is dead, It is going to be ok, just the three of us, I promise. I bent my crown by hers. Her thoughts will fill your head, and you won't forget her. I promise that. You won't forget her. She woke up, and she will never make up. She won't be able to ever apologize, I won't be able to apologize for anything. Shock surged through me, as well with pain, as I looked deep in Laria's fear-filled eyes. She wanted this to be a dream. Everyone did. This is just a nightmare, is the first thing I spoke as I thought. Just a perfect way to reunite with my beloved family; a death. This will be hard to get over, but we will do it, we will do it together. We won't walk alone, no, we will never walk alone. So, keep your distance, but stay together. We can't manage to loose anyone else now.

Don't know what's going on. Don't know what went wrong. Feels like a hundred years I still can't believe you're gone. So I'll stay up all night with these bloodshot eyes, while these walls surround me with the story of our life. I feel so much better...Now that you're gone forever. I tell myself that I don't miss you at all. I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now, that you're gone forever. Now things are coming clear. And I don't need you here, and in this world around me, I'm glad you disappeared. So I'll stay out all night Get drunk and fuck and fight, until the morning comes I'll forget about our life. I feel so much better now that you're gone forever. I tell myself that I don't miss you at all, I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now, that you're gone forever. First time you screamed at me, I should have made you leave, I should have known it could be so much better. I hope you're missing me, I hope I've made you see that I'm gone forever, and now it's coming clear, that I don't need you here. And in this world around me, I'm glad you disappeared. I feel so much better Now that you're gone forever, I tell myself that I don't miss you at all. I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now that you're gone forever, and now you're gone forever. Oodis widened as I saw the father of the lost daughter come over, looking down on the rocks. I watched as he retreated back to his family. I pulled my self from Titan, and walked to them. My tiara hung low as I moved to them. I stopped infront of the one who called him self Santico, Good day. I know of your loss, you might want to know a bit about her assasin. I stopped and sighed, The killer of your daughter was my sister, Moonlit Revenge, why she did it? I can't really tell. Though I feel that it was partially my fault. She was after me the whole time. Why she turned on an innocent foal, I don't know...but I can share the pain with you. I looked back at Titan and said again, I will understand if you wish to hate me for the rest of your lives, I will accept it and go on. Leaving it at that, I wandered back to Titan, but went past him. I looked down at my sister. I shook my head. If only I had given my self to her all those years ago..
