"Mare" I snort and the black ooze falls from my nose to the ground. "Why are you here?" Without thinking I speak, my speech perfectly clear without even trying for the first time in a while "Because I can be. Got a problem with it? To bad." I cut my violet rimmed aqua eyes at him, daring him to come closer. I guess being near the Moon bitch had helped, as the effects from the ooze were decreasing. I was able to smell again, and speak without feeling as if I was choking. Even my eye sight which had been slightly dulled by the ooze was now clearing. Maybe she had done that as a parting gift? A way of saying sorry? Nah, she wasn't that nice.
My long ebony tail flicks back and forth at my hocks as we seem to have a staring contest. His red eyes against my mostly aqua ones. However his attention feels good. No one had ever really paid me any attention as a child. I had essentially become an orphan when the Moon Bitch had my dam murdered. But I didn't really care for attention back then. Now, I thrived under his. It was like a hidden part of me came alive. I was both attracted and yet heavily sarcastic. "Going to try and stop me?" I snort again. Ah his stench again. Good thing my senses were now starting to work. I turn and simply start moving off for the waters of the Falls. His move now.
"Sed interdum rutrum urna, sed pellentesque sapien tempor in."
I'm braver, because I fought a giant and won.
I'm stronger, because I had to be.
I'm happier, because I've learned what matters.
I stand taller, because I'm a survivor.
