ghost laughed at ebony blowing bubbles before he jumped around in the water splashing it on her

The stallion glanced at Dixie before slowly walking in. As they had gotten closer to the desert, the heat had Increased, so this water felt great.

Ebony tossed her head and bucked as she ran around, managing to splash Ghost's legs a little in the process. She suddenly stopped and huffed. "I know it hasn't been THAT long but I hope West and Dixie come back soon." She mumbled, her ears flattening for a moment.

Fire breather lol)

Dixie swam to him, her legs touching the sand and propelling hee forward "hello mister"

(IT IS WRECKING MY POSTS (sobs))

-

West slowly looked over at her. "Hiiii." He answered, drawing out the word slightly. "We should probably get going soon." He added with slight reluctance, glancing at the path ahead.

Dixie bumped him "but whyyyy" she stopped beside him, hee head leaning against his neck

West lowered his head slightly. "Because we need to find Mystery." He paused. Like that was going to happen. They could probably look for years and not find her. "I said to Ebony we'd come home within 5 days, so we only have 4 left."

Dixie gave him a loving nudge "ok. Where to then? Remember, we also have to be able to get home" she flicked her tail as she reluctantly pulled herself out of the water.

West slowly walked out of the water, scanning the horizon and thinking where a bright golden horse would do if she didn't want to be found. He decided not the desert, because that'd be like a death sentence. The jungle. That's where it would be easiest to hide, and to muddy up your coat so you weren't easily spotted. West knew the way to the jungle and back. They would be able to get back. He reassured himself of that. "Let's go to the jungle. It'll be about a days hike, then we can spend 1 day looking, and it'll take 2 days to come back." He answered. It wouldn't be long to look, but it'd be something.

Dixie nodded, walking right beside him, occasionally flicking her tail against him "cheer up. We'll find her"

West flicked his ears slightly. "Someday." He answered with a small snort, quickening into a brisk Trot. Heeey! At least one good thing would come out of this! Exercise. Haha. He was awesome at seeing silver linings. *note heavy sarcasm*
