Flint walked into the new, unfamiliar land. But he didn't really notice the beautiful, new land because all he could think about was his darling. He was depressed after just losing his lead mare, only mare, and first mare, not to a stallion, but for an unknown cause. He just woke up and she was gone, no blood or any sign of struggle visible. Flint lyed down and just sat there, thinking about nothing but his mare. Oh how stupid he was! He should have been keeping guard instead of dozing. But now, since Flint had searched for miles around, there was nothing he could do about it except hope that Mikayla was OK.

Rhiannon walked into Sunshine River. She was somewhat depressed since Tequila Action seemed to dissapear, but she would get over it eventually, hopefully. She watched as a light snow began to fall on the lonely river. She looked around for other horses, but she found non so she continued to tavel upstream from where she was standind. She eventually made her way to a pony stallion and walked over to him. She was a giant compared ho him, but she didn't care about size when it came to conversation. Company was company so she would talk to him. She smiled a friendly smile. "Hello there. I am Rhiannon. What is your name?"

Flint jumped up with a start. He hadn't heard anything coming up to him, probaly because he was so worried about a Mikayla. He whipped around to see a beautiful, preagnant, arabian mare. Flint smiled back. A mare. Just what he lost and here comes another one. He was a little sad still since he didn't know if Mikayla was OK and he would never ever meet a mare as perfect as Mikayla,plus, this mare was huge and if she got mad at Flint she could trample him any day, but still, a mare. "Hello there, Rhiannon. I am Flint. What brings you here?" Flint looked right into the mare's soft, black eyes.

Rhiannon smiled at the pint-sized stallion, Flint was it? She flicked her coat slightly to shake the snow from her grey arabian pelt. She made sure that she didn't shake the foal around, but just that she did get the snow off of herself. She felt the foal give a slight kick and she giggled. "Hello Flint. I came here because my stallion left and I decided I needed to move on." Rhiannon let out a slow sigh and then she spoke again. "What brings you here?" Rhiannon giggled again as her foal let another kick. She hoped that the foal would be like Tequila Action.

" Hello Rhiannon. Is it OK if I call you Ria for short? We have similiar problems. I lost my mare. She just disappeared. Right into thin air." Flint got soft, sad look in his eyes. He gave a big sigh. But then again, this mare was alone, so he might just have a chance of having another mare the same day the other one disappears. Before he started talking again, he thought for a second. He wanted to ask the mare to join his herd sooooo badly, but he knew better. He was no stupid horse. He knew that you have to give the mare time before you ask if she would join. " Want to go for a walk?" he asked timidly. He might be taking too big of a leap in one jump.

Rhiannon smiled at the small stallion. "Yes, you may call me Ria if you would like. I am sorry to hear about your mare." Rhiannon allowed for a short pause as she shook her pelt to rid it of the freezing snow. She listened to the stallion's last sentence and then spoke once again. "I would love to take a walk with you, Flint." Rhiannon, or Ria, started to walk upstream. "Come along." Rhiannon smiled at Flint again and continued to walk at a slow and steady pace.

Flint smiled on the outside and the inside. He might be getting a mare! He nodded at Rhiannon. " Yes, I am sorry about your stallion too. Maybe we could get together?" Flint knew he was pushing it. But he was so eager to get another mare! He quickly followed Rhiannon. " So Ria, why don't you tell me a little about your backround? Where were you born? I was born in Canada, in the wild. I have had a tough young life. There was the biggest blizzard you ever saw, storm of the century, and I got lost from my herd just as a young foal. Somehow I survived and eventually found my mother. A few years later she died of a sickness, so ya, that's pretty much all about me. Now what about you?" Flint smiled. Conversation was the first thing to getting to know someone.

Rhiannon smiled at Flint, but her smile soon faded. She wasn't completely ready to let go of Tequila Action. She stepped away from Flint a bit and looked at him. "I am not sure if I am ready for a new home yet. I carry Tequila Action's foal. Would you allow the foal to stay if I did come with you?" Rhiannon would NOT go with him if he would not accept her foal. Although she may be able to push him around a bit if he did not please her. She might be able to join him, but if TA came back then she would most likely go back to his herd.

Six words. Six words blew it. Flint went to far. He had said six words and now he lost most of the confidence he had had. But he might be able to get a majority of it back by saying eight words. " Of course I would let your foal stay." Then he kept going, in hope of getting more confidence from the gray mare. " Ria, I am not a killer. I would never kill your foal. I would never kill any foal. Occasionaly I will get a very nasty temper but I would still never kill or even hurt anyone. I just hope you don't think I am lying and would not allow your foal to live." Flint stopped walking and once again, looked up in to the now frightened black eyes. He tried to search for any other sign other than fright, but unfortunately, could not find any.

Rhiannon looked down at Flint. She was glad that he would let her foal live if she did join him. Perhaps she could give him a chance. "I am very glad to hear that. I can have a bad temper occasionally also." Rhiannon stopped to breathe and think of Tequila Action for a while. She would take a while to get over him, but this was a step. She looked at Flint and swallowed a lump in her throat. She hoped that this was not a mistake. "Flint, perhaps, I could give your herd a chance. I would like to be your lead mare." Rhiannon smiled at him a bit and extended her muzzle to nuzzle his neck.

Flint jumped inside with joy. He had a new lead mare already! When Rhiannon nuzzled him on the neck he nuzzled her back. This was almost the perfect day. He had a new lead mare, but then again, he lost his first lead mare. If only he had Mikayla back, everything would be perfect. "I am very glad to hear that you will take a chance in my herd. I have a territory in Rainbow Ridge. I don't know if you want to have a territory there and live there, we could always go somewhere else and find another territory there, but, it's up to you. Where shall we go first?"

Rhiannon smiled at Flint and nuzzled him one more time. "I belive that I would like to see Rainbow Ridge first, but I also hear that there are some other wonderful territories open if I like them better. I have also heard very nice things about Rainbow Ridge, hmm, tough choice, but I say we go to Rainbow Ridge first." Rhiannon smiled again at him and then waited for him to lead the way. She giggled again as the foal let out a few small kicks. It tickled and she loved it. She nuzzled Flint and shook her head to get her forelock out of her eyes.

Flint smiled and nuzzled Rhiannon back. He started walking in the direction of Rainbow Ridge. What a glorious day and what a sad day. Lost his lead mare somehow and got a beautiful, new mare. He flicked his mane up in a playful way. He had the sudden urge to run. Run until he could run no more. He looked at Rhiannon with a questioning look. She probaly didn't want to run with a heavy foal in her stomache. Flint gave a little buck in the air and raced around Rhiannon. " Sorry Rhiannon, I just sometimes get these wild bursts of energy." He stopped for a second, his sides heaving, and gave a loving look at Rhiannon.

Rhiannon giggled a bit at Flint as he started to run around her. She looked at him and then spoke. "It is alright Flint." Rhiannon smiled at Flint and nuzzled him gently. She waited for a while before she spoke again. "Should we go to Rainbow Ridge now?" She nipped lightly at his mane and then nipped at his withers. She smiled at him again and walked around him as she nipped at him lightly from different places around his body. She nipped at his mane, then his withers, his shoulder, and then his rump.
