The young colt staggered through the moist and thick pine needle covered ground. His little tail flicked back and forth constantly, his ears rotated around is fragile head, and his tired as stared forward. His stomach growled, his legs shaking with every step he took. After hours of endless traveling, he had finally had enough. He took a step, and his ankle cracked, he fell to the ground with a thud and a sharp squeal of pain. He thrashed around on the ground, kicking his legs as he tried to get back up, but each time was a fail. He whinnied for help, his eyes wide with fear. Helpless and alone, the colt inhaled in and out, his sides heaving as he laid on the ground.

Allisha's father chanted a bless to her and placed a small wooden whistle around her neck. Allisha looked up at her father proudly "You are a intelligent young girl Allisha. Blow this whistle to find your companion." He said as he opened up the teepee flap, Ignoring half of what her father said, Allisha ran out into the forest where a flash flood had been and stood looking around in the only crack of light in the trees. Allisha sighed and pressed the whistle to her lips whilst blowing, a loud toot came from the whistle and travelled to the sound of the colts ears. Allisha waited for the colts reply, knowing he was out there somewhere.

As he laid there, heaving and helpless, a harsh whistle rang through his little fuzzy ears. His tail flicked around rapidly, and he forced out squeaks and nickers through his small velvet muzzle. His eyes flashed around widely as he kicked his legs in another attempt to try and stand, but he fell back to the ground, and he let out a grunt, whinnying in pain.

Hearing soft, repetitive whinnys and squeaks, Allisha quickly ran through the forest, her feet kicking up pine needles. Until he was there. A poor, tiny colt, unable to stand. Allisha immeadiatly ran and knelt by the colt and laying a hand on his bony side "shh shh shh shh shh shh shhhhhhh....." She hushed, calming him down and getting out a small treat she had made earlier before getting ready to carry the young colt back to the wooden barn.

The colt's eyes grew wide as he kicked his legs, after being startled by the girls presence. His nostrils flared and he nickered softly, quieting down as he listened to the humans sweet. settling voice. When he felt her carry him, he squirmed a bit, but he soon fell stiff and lifted his tiny head, looking up at the strange being. What was she? Who was she?

Allisha had hold of the colt tightly, in the right place so he wouldn't get uncomfortable, as the young horse looked up at her she smiled, his big eyes looking up at hers, The colt was nearly as big as herself. But since it was a hard life out there, only the toughest survived, She smiled and thought of names as the camp started to grow into sight.
