Destiny didn't say a word. She sighed gently and then breathed in the winter's cool crisp air. She looked up through the branches of the tree. She could see some stars in the sky. It was a little clear. There were a few holes in the dark clouds that seemed to go on forever. She looked back over to him.

"If you'll excuse me," he said, gathering to his feet. "I feel reenergized. If you care to join me, please do." He continued his trek up the mountainside, deep in thought. This mare wasn't so bad after all. Mosts mares he'd met fawned over thier stallions as if they were gods, but this one seemed a bit like him: calm, quiet and collected. This time, when he asked her to join him, he did not really regret it.

"I would love to," she said as she got up. She smiled to him and followed him.

His ears flicked back to here for a second, then back forward so he knew where he was going. "Can you do me a favor and tell me how much more there is to climb? Can you perhaps see the peak?"

"Sure," she said. She came up along side of him, so she could see. "I don't see it yet."

"Wonderful." It was hard to tell if he was being sarcastic or not. "Can you do me another favor? Make sure I don't walk off the cliff." Then he let out something that almost sounded like a laugh. It was highly unlikely, though, coming from THIS stallion.

"I wouldn't want that to happen to you," the words spilled out in a caring way. "I mean...I'll keep an eye out." She looked forward and didn't turn back. How could I be so stupid? I should have kept my mouth shut, Destiny thought to herself. She was really starting to like this stallion. She didn't want to drive him away from her. It wasn't like Destiny to just say her feeling out loud, but around this stallion she felt like they had a lot in common. She just hoped he wouldn't turn away from her. This was the first stallion she was actually getting along with.

"I wouldn't either. That's why I asked you to prevent it." What was he thinking? He was cracking jokes! Sure, they may have been lame, but they were still jokes! He never cracked jokes! He mentally slapped himself to snap out of it. This mare had a wat of getting him to act....differently, even out of character. He wasnt entirely happy with it, but something told him he'd get used to it.

Destiny kept walking. "It's starting to clear up a little bit," she said.

"Good." He actually showed a hint of emotion in his voice: gratitude to the heavens. "So. Once we reach the top, IF we reach the top, what would you care to do afterward? Im sure the way down is much easier than the way up."

"We could just relax for a while. Unless you have something else in mind," she said. She really like being around him. Finally for once a stallion that understood her. She wondered how far they were going to go. She was a member of the Indian herd, but she never really like have to be ridden every now and then. That's why she wandered so far. The Indians understood that she like to have freedom, so they let her wander.

"I have nothing in mind. That's why I asked you opinion. Do you know if there are any groves or springs along the way? I am both famished and dry."

"Yeah, I know of a few. Their not to far from here," she said.

"Wonderful!" His voice showed emotion but his face did not. "Please show me too them, if you would be so kind."

Destiny led the way. She walk almost along side of him as she led the way. The path was getting narrow. She kept on walking. She could feel his warm breathe against he side.
