[Pulse]

Pepper, a young filly, ran as fast as her legs would take her. She had passed trough a wolfs lands, but it hadn't frightended her. Personaly, she thought the woulves were nice, and could be careing if you gave them a chance.As Pepper slowed to a trot, a thin sheet of glass that was a lake appeared. Snorting as she got closer, Pepper turned her head to one side. The lake was flat as who knows what. How could a lake be flat?

Pepper ponderd this as her silver body got closer to it. Inching her mouth down carefully, she drank, creating ripples. Good. A lake shoudl never be flat.It just wasn't right.After her drink, Peper ponderd where she was. She had come very far from her birth home where her mothers bones remained. It was a surprise that she had remained alive even.

A speckled figure two-beated towards the silvery lake. Her black banner fluttered gracefully behind her as she approached the smooth body of water. What was that? A filly was drinking from the lake. The mare watched the other finish her drink, and she looked around. The appaloosa stepped towards the filly. "Hello?" she nickered.

[Pulse]

The silver filly turned her head, side stepping so she'd have a clear path to run if needed. She knew she couldn't out-run the appaloosa who was full grown, but it wouldn't be a worthless attempt.

Pepper nickerd some, her silver head cocking to one side. "Ullo there. Is be Pepper. And whos woulds yous be?" She spoke stranger than many she'd et, but she liked that. She was one of a kind.

She sniffed. Oh, yes. This appaloosa was a lead one all right, the lead mare to be in fact. She snorted some as small grains of dust whipped into her eyes.

[Person]

The apaloosa c.ocked her head slightly, surprised by the filly's strange accent. "Bellus, lead mare of these lands," she informed Pepper. Her tones were firm, yet gentle. "You aren't from around here?"

The lead mare's throught was dry, and the glassy water in the lake was beckoning. She stepped foreward and dipped her maw into the water, creating her own set of ripples. Muzzle dripping, she looked back at the filly, questions in her amber eyes. "Where are you from?"

[Pulse]

Pepper stamped a black hoof, and snorted. "Depends of yours 'efanition of where 'ere is. Ifs you meaned this planet, then yep, Is from this planet. Theses lands?Nope not from dese 'ands. I's from far from dese lands." She nodded her head, as if to re-assure herself of her own words.

Pepper loved the water. She loved the feel of it slinking off her bodice. It sparkled. She looked to Bellus. "Dat just ain't right. No lake 'uposed to be flat. 'Upossed to be alive." She giggled.

((Translation? 1)Depends on your definition of where here is. If you mean this planet, then yep, i'm from this planet. These lands? Nope, not from these lands. I'm from far from these lands.

2)That just isn't right. No lake supposed to be flat. Supposed to be alive.

Just incase you needed it. She speaks funny. I like how she talks))

[Person]

((Me to XD))

"I...see," Bellus said as Pepper told her where-or where she wasn't- from. Her auds perked, listening to the young one speak again. "Alive? Moving?" She asked, lifting a piston again closer to the lake. She tapped the water with her hoof, making it move in a million ripples. "When the wind blows, the lake is...alive," she commented.

[Pulse]

"Nu-uh!" Pepper said stubbonly. "Its da 'ind dats alive! Nuttin's 'upposed to have to be 'oved. All 'ings are alive ifs you 'ook at it da 'ight way!" She said, snorting with a matter-of -fact tone.

She continued with a stomp of her hoof. "'Veryting 'as a soul. Even if yous don't tink its alive!" She jerked her head in a nod.

((

1)It's the wind thats alive!nothings supposed to have to be moved. All things are alive is you look at it the right way!

2)Everything has a soul. Even if you don't think it's alive! ))

[Person]

The spotted mare stepped back in surprise at the filly's stubborn words. "Alright then..." she murmered quietly. "So your saying that the wind...and the water are alive?"

((Gah! My muse has abandoned me!))

[Pulse]

"Inally! Yous 'destands me! Yes. 'Ind is awive, and lake is oo. Ou see, da lake is awive, but it eems as dou its soul has oved on somewhere better." She asid, watching the lake, eyes wide.

Pepper's imagination often wanders like that. As a yealing and yonger her slowly dieing mother had taught her many things. Such as everything had a soul, she taught her to be strong willed, and have her own opions. She taught her to think. She taught her to think like an individul, not like everyone else. He mother had told her to never forget she wa her own horse, and no one elses to boss around.

((Fianlly! You understand me!Yes.The wind is alive, and the lake is too. You see the lake is alive but it seems as though it's soul has moved on somewhere better))
