The spring air was cool and crisp as a small breeze made the grass sway back and forth. Birds twittered in the air or in their nests that were in the high branches of pine trees. Some fish swam and leaped in the stream that ran through the plains and it was currently where a pretty palomino was standing nearby, taking a drink.
The mare's coat was of a dark gold and her mane and tail were a bright white that it stood out against her coat. She was rather a bit taller than the average mare, her legs long and muscular from her running. A small snort escaped her nostrils as she raised her head, droplets of water leaving her muzzle and falling back into the stream.
Brown pools flicked around the area as some of the other herd members were either by themselves or in groups. Tossing her head, she began walking a good distance away from the others, her tail flicking in contentment as she soon came to a stop. Lowering her head, she started to graze as her mind wandered. Sakura knew she had a good life. She had a herd to protect her, good grazing lands and maybe a stallion or two to flirt with, but she couldn't help but feel as though something was missing. For a while, she felt as though every day things were running the same as they were yesterday. It almost made her want to go rogue. Almost. But she knew that she would never go through with it. She loved herd life too much to do that.
Still...the challenge looks promising though the palomino as she turned her head toward rogue lands where a lone horse would have to fight day in and day out just to make it to the next day. Or so she heard. Shrugging, she lowered her head again and pulled more grass into her mouth. [/size]
