Lilac was stunned about what Tigress had just said. She was not expecting it, although she was glad she forgave her...

Lilac went to the small pool of water where Tigress was, she dipped her head for a drink, she came up and said "Thank you for forgiving me...", Lilac turned and walked to the herd. She spotted Arion and Sultan under a tree. Lilac smiled at them, at least they were having a better time than most of the herd.

Sultan smiled as he layed there with her letting her lean on him as he was enjoying this time with her as he nuzzled her back softly.

Arion was so happy to finally have a friend, although they weren't quite... Mates. Arion laid her head on the ground and closed her eyes in a relaxing way.

Lilac turned her head, the first horse she saw was Wildfire...she quickly looked away and started heading for the forest.

Sultan watched her as she layed down her head and smiled softly but he didn't lay down he was still keeping watch over the herd waiting for Lilac to get back.

Lilac went to the meadow which had the fireflys, they were not there anymore. Lilac stept slowly into the tall grass, fireflys started shooting up around her...again...it was magical. The sun had gone down and the moon was up, she had ought to get back to the herd before they started worrying. She trotted her way back. She was much calmer now and wasnt so anxious about the thing tat was happening between Wildfire,her and Tigress.

Arion perked her head up. "Do you think the herd will start moving again?" She asked Sultan. Arion's green eyes met Sultan's, and she gave him a soft smile.

Wildfire saw Lilac trotting back to the herd. He watched her go into the distance, then he walked softly to the pond. Not expecting anyone else to be there, he dipped his head down and took a drink. He looked up, seeing his reflection. He didn't want to think about anything like that so he splashed his hoof in the water, the ripples carrying his face away. Seeing the stars on the water's surface, he looked up. They were beautiful. So many, so easy to get lost in. Like the swirls of the fireflies/lightning bugs, like those blue flames... he dropped his head, and looked around, only now realizing he saw a horse's silhouette on the other side of the pond. He knew it must be Tigress, no one else had come back here, and Lilac left. He tried to calmly leave, but there were butterflies in his stomach. He lightly chuckled at himself. He walked back to the herd, needing something to distract him from the problem at hand. He walked to Sultan and Arion. "Sorry to interrupt. You may rest now, Lilac and I are back. Thank you for watching the herd." He bid them goodnight and started to check the herd.

Sultan looked at her and smiled then looked around. "Not sure If we will be made to move again hopefully we can just relax in this area for a bit it's not good on the foals if we keep being on the run" He heard another horse walking up and looked up at wildfire and nods his head. "Alright wildfire and good night"

Arion watched Wildfire walk off and smiled back at Sultan. She nuzzled him and blushed. "Well, i'm heading off to bed. Goodnight Sultan." Arion said happily.
