Shanira snorted. "I DID tell them, Arvantis, but you know how stallions can be...." she tweaked Nikya's aud. "...hardheaded and dense sometimes! I meant to ask you before though, why is it i've never seen the rest of your herd, Arvantis? Surely you're not alone out here?" Arvantis faltered, taken by suprise by Shanira's question. "I.....I don't have one..." he sighed, glancing out to the distance over the desert dunes. "...it's not something I want to talk about..."

Sweetie looked at the striped stallion with interest.He seemed to have a story behind him,and his strange coat was a mystery to her.With her head low,she walked up to Arvantis and nosed his side lightly to gain his attention.
"..Um'why do you h-have stripes?"she asked shyly.

A coal black mare stood far from the other horses. Her cream colored mane gently flowed, as she watched the other horses. The black mare narrowed her deep brown eyes slightly, but she did not speak to the herd. Instead she looked into the burning sky, as the sun shone over her. The weather was almost to humid, and hot to survive in, she thought.

Nykia, next to Sweetie,heard her question, lowered his dial,whispered See his upright mane too?' Arvantis, is half Zebra. Master at my once place I stayed, had a zebra, he belong to their human/filly (daughter). His name was Punda,and was my stallmate. He told me he comes from a land, called Africa. Sweetie, will you excuse me, I want to say my greetings to that new mare. As he walk up to the black mare, bowing his dial, said, "good day, my name is Nykia.

"Yes, my sire was a a striped one, that's why I look the way I do...." Arvantis sighed. "Something which almost all i've known do not tolerate." Arvantis looked at Shanira. "Now you know why i've no herd, Shanira..."
Shanira frowned, hearing the bitterness in his voice. She walked over to him, nuzzling him gently. "I'm sorry, my friend. I didn't mean to sound insensitive." she said.
Arvantis sighed. "It's alright. I've learnt to live with it..."

Sweetie looked at Arvantis with wide eyes before smiling and looking down bashfully.So he was part 'zebra' huh? That was interesting.She'd never heard of such a thing before.She walked up to him and tilted her head slightly.
"...........I t-think your stripes are p-pretty....Very,um,unique a-and special.Um,to me any ways..."she said shyly.

Arvantis smiled, giving Sweetie a little nuzzle. "Well, you would be the first to say that, Sweetie. Thank you...."

Nykia, nodded to Arvantis, "no bad... ...not bad at all, replied, as he stared at his stripes. One thing you have a advantage, those stripes well keep you well camouflage, from predators. He thought for a second, and giggled. You know come to think of it, all of us here has something special, myself, You, Arvantis, Sweetie, and the beautiful Shanira. We all have a skill, that well help us to survive out here, in this waste land...."

Sweetie nodded and ran up to the larger stallion with a smile.She was glad she was part of a small herd with such nice horses.
"Y-yeah,and we make a g-great herd,don't we? I think we'll be j-just fine,if we stay t-together."she said shyly.

"Wasteland indeed, though it does have a beauty of it's own..." Arvantis replied. "I do not think it wise to consider me one of your herd, however..." he started, turning his gaze on the other stallion. "...there is a reason i've lived alone, and if others were to learn that I was part of your herd, they would surely turn you away as well..."
Shanira snorted. "Why, because you're part striped one?! What kind of thinking is that?! What kind of stubborn, blockheaded little s-"
"Enough! I never said I agreed with thier thinking, Shanira, you know that. But I am only one, and they are many. Though I wish it were otherwise, it is just that; a wish. I will lead you to the mountains, they are a distance from here, and without a guide, you'll never survive the desert crossing"

Nykia, nuzzled Sweetie's muzzle, if he doesn't want to be part of us, so be it. Walking up to Shanira side, rubbing his muzzle to her cheek. "It's okay he replied. At least we have a guide to the mountains. Turning to Arvantis, what makes so you sure, we won't be accepted?" "Look, Arvantis, I don't know much being the wilds. I know one thing, if we, don't get accepted in one herd, we will keep looking till we find one. Or, I might have to challenge the leader, win or lose, we WILL, be in a herd, and I want you with us..."

Sweetie hid behind Nykia at the smaller stallions voice.He seemed to be upset at the prospect of being in a herd.She didn't know why,as she didn't see anything wrong with his stripes.She looked from behind Nykia and nickered.
"....W-we'd accept you....."she said in a whisper.

Nykia smiled at Arvantis, don't be so down on yourself, we all see nothing wrong with your stripes, and I betcha, we will find some herd, no matter we search to the end of all this land(earth)..." So, please after you guide us to the mountainous regions, 'Please... ...Please, don't go, after you guide us there, but stay with us. As I mention before, we all need to count on each other, in order for our survival Arvantis...
"And I can always use an extra hoof, in handle these lovely mares...

"It is not that I do not wish to join a herd, it is others who shun me for what I am. I would bring thier mistrust upon you if I were to join you. I will lead you to where you seek, after that, we will see..." Arvantis replied, then fixed Nykia with an eye. "A stallion needing help with mares? That would be a first, indeed..." he teased, giving the other a quick smile.
