Tiger snorted and trotted around, his tail in the air, his black stripes shimmered on his Creame coat

West glanced up as Phantom spoke. He slowed to a walk, letting out a slow breath. "You looked agitated, so I came to ask if there was anything I could do to help." he said quietly, swishing his tail as he came to a stop a couple feet away.

Phantom grinned her teeth slightly thinking back to the reason she was agitated "Yeah I'm fine..." She said slowly trying to keep the agitation out of her voice "Just thinking about things is all, I'll be back in a few minutes just need to blow some steam off" She said as she glanced back at where the herd was. All of them looked like dotted figures in the distance

West nodded, knowing Phantom either didn't know or, more likely, didn't want to tell him why she was 'thinking'. He turned around and headed back towards the herd at a walk, knowing that Phantom probably just needed some space. He went back to the shade of the tree, thinking

Phantom watched West walk of a little before turning and bolting down the coastline. She went a ways down kicking up as much sand as she could before turning back and going the other way. She enjoyed doing that it looked cool turning aorund and seeing the remainder of the sand settle back down

West stared at the river for a moment, his brain occupied with thoughts... for once. He then glanced up and studied each horse, making sure they were okay before turning his attention back to where Phantom should be coming soon

After one final sprint she went down to a walk. Sand lay all over her coat which she wasn't complaining about. She started off in a trot on her way back to the herd shaking a little to get loose sand off but msot of it stood out on her black coat. She got to the herd pretty quickly and went straight to the lake for a drink

West watched as Ohantom came back. He was relieved she did... he had gotten worried for a moment. What if it was something big she was worried about? West cleared his mind and turned his gaze to the flowing fields of grass. The wind felt nice today... since it was sunny and hot.

After taking one last sip Phantom walked into the lake takign a small swim. Just enough to get the mixture of sweat and sand off of her. She walked back out of the lake shaking the water off, her mane slapped against both sides of her neck which stung slightly. The coolness of the water plus the slight breeze made her feel refreshed. She took off in a trot still being full of energy and just wanting something to do

"Well..." Said Moon, recovering from her giggles. "West and Dixie are being so WEIRD, and I think it's because they like each other." Moon finished, looking expectantly at Aurora. "Just a few minutes ago, they were looking at little blue butterflies on their backs and not saying anything! It's not like West to not say anything."
