The stars that splattered amoungest her pelt showed without a doubt her true heritage. Silver and gold chains whipped out behind her like massive kites, strung with bows and ribbons and all that fancy shit. When running, one could not see the true nature of her. She was not light, nor dark. Neutral. Sometimes leaning towards the light, other times leaning towards the darks. Lately, her side of leaning in the darks' direction. The silence wrapped around her like a heavy quilt, nothing stirred other then her hoof beats. No birds sung. No river flowed. No frogs croaked. Nothing. Only silence. Snorting loudly, grulla vixen tried to break the silence by speeding up, and bucking once or twice. It didn't help.

Running on, the flash-backs began to eat into her mind. Ruining her sanity and leaving behind nothing more then a heartless bitch. Oh, she tried to shake it off, but the thoughts of that horrid stallion continued to crowd her memory. Seeing her mother, father, and siblings killed, seeing the black idiot torture and rape their once great herd. Sabra shook her head hard, trying to stop the memories from crowding her mind once more. Nothing helped. Her speed hadn't decreased all the while, amber-orange optics hadn't been looking for her direction, and the tree looming ahead of the least of her worries.

As she crashed into the small thicket, and the single tree, the memories flooded heavier, like blood gushing from an newly open wound. Chains hung limply, and her bod moved no more. And if it weren't for the fact her breathing was heavy, and sweat began to bead along her pelt, one might have thought she was dead. No, she was not dead, simply in a living nightmare, one that would last forever.[/color]

The palomino stag trotted onto the red sands of Spiagga del Nord with his head hung low. His silvery arab tail was held high while his long mane hung over his sleek neck. His forelock drifted to one side, covering one of his ice blue optics and the lightening bolt blaze that ran down the centre of his face.

Torchwood let out a snort and slowed his pace, orbs searching the desolate area. All he saw was red sand, water and stupid gulls that were always so happy. He shook his head and tunred back around. Why the hell was he even here?

As Torchwood made his way back, he saw the form of an equine in a thicket nearby. He lifted his maw and tested the air. Vixen. He sighed. Did he really want to go over to her and try and get her to come to the herd with him? No. but something interested him in her so his slowly made his way over to her lifeless looking form.

Fems' breathing gradually slowed, and the flash-backs decreased. Not daring to open her orbs, for fear she would once more be in her dreaded homeland with the black draft. Finally, the flash-backs eased, then vanished fully. A slight shiver shook through her, gulping to shallow the lump in her throat, speckled femme slowly opened her orange optics. Many horses would have gasped, and clambered to their feet, making a big deal out of seeing the endless, barren, red land around themselves. Sabra simply looked at it as if she had been there since she had been born. Nothing ever seemed to surprise her anymore. Nothing, but those dreaded flash-backs and memories. Vixen lay where she was, not caring enough to bring herself to her feet. Looking around once more, she let out a hefty sigh and closed her orbs once more.

She didn't have much time to feel sorry for herself, for the sound of forced hoof-beats soon reached her auds. Low in the pit of her stomach, she felt horrible, as through she had given up. So, she made no move to get up as the equine came closer. Let them kill her, for all she cared. Nothing mattered anymore anyways. Death would be a much easier way out. "Do whatever you wish. I don't care anymore."[/i] she told whoever it was that had approached, not moving to see who or what it was. Perhaps it would be some dark stallion, and perhaps he would kill her. Death was the only way out.[/size][/color]
