Word Count » 472 :: OOC: Eclipse is near the boarders of Saul's pack, in Optime, possibly middle afternoon if ok with you?
“Why are you still following me? Shoo!”
The cinnamon woman waved her arms at the beautiful chestnut that had been following her for a week. The darn horse may have saved her life, but that didn’t mean she could follow her like a lost puppy. The woman wasn’t sure why the mare was following her, though she did think her a beauty. Eclipse had a close call with a cliff when the horse had grabbed her arm and pulled her away. She had been in deep thought, and if the horse had not been there she would not be here right now. But it was all she could do to get rid of her. Every time she tried to get close to the horse she would shy away but soon would be right on the woman’s tail as she moved. She stopped again, this time setting her bag down. She was so close to her destination but so far. She missed home, and wanted things back the way they had been, she wanted to be innocent and naive. She wished many things that would not be granted, most of all though she wished she hadn’t decided to go seaching for answers about her family. She did not like what she heard. She found out many things about both sides of her family. Things that made her wonder if she were truly sane.
The woman sighed and the horse nickered. Eclipse smiled at the chestnut mare with a flaxen mane. She must have been trained by someone, but they had long since lost her or let her go. This made her wonder how Buttercup was doing. She was probably with the rest of the horses in Ichika, living well and healthy. Perhaps if this horse would let her touch her, then maybe she would take her in and have buttercup become a pack horse. The thought of taking in the brightly colored chestnut with a beautful flaxe mane made Eclipse have butterflies in her stomach. The horse was pretty big, but she knew how to ride properly. It was getting the horse to stop shying away.
“Well? If you want to be with me, let me touch you if not stop following!”
The girl yelled, thinking hse was the only one in this field of grass. The horse snorted and as if she understood what Eclipse had said, she moved forward. Eclipse could hear the cracking of the horses knees and hooves as she moved slowly towards the girl and Eclipse held out her hand. The horse nosed her hand and then started lipping it to see if there was some kind of treat. ‘She must have definitely belonged to someone, but who?’ Eclipse thought curiously as she started petting the horses nose.
