The boy snuck and slithered away from his home, his world, his life as a "prince". He was tired of the expectations that the adults place upon him. Could he really call anyone there his friend, his family, his anything? Golden eyes wanted to cry with all the thoughts that ran through his mind, but they didn't. His bright eyes remained stone dry, cold, unforgiving, and tired. For a young boy, he was matured much more than others his age. Katua was always out enjoying childhood, but Zubari, himself was not. He was out to seek knowledge to become smarter, stronger, and more powerful. He had no time for childish games; you only live once, and he was not messing up his life because he did not know something. He found spending time with adults furthered his knowledge more than being around a child his age. Today was unusual; he was not out seeking others. He just wanted to be alone. The chocolate toned colt found himself wondering towards the Endless Blue.

It had been days since he had seen his mother and sister, he wish he could say the same for his father. The "King was always around looming over any activity in the herd. He wished that he could look up to his father, but he couldn't, he could not respect a man who had not a single care for his family. His Real family. Hooves soon started sinking into the sands of the beach surrounding the new underground tunnel. His head tilted and eyes brightened as the boy moved closer to the tunnel pausing for a moment. He pondered the thought of actually continuing into the glass covered area, but any negative thoughts were pushed aside. Small hooves moved closer; then he finally entered the mouth of the tunnel. Golden eyes gazed around him in amazement. Fish of all colors swam all around him. The sun's rays glimmered and bounced around the chocolate boy with playful movements. Amazed eyes moved all around the glass tunnel, and his hooves carefully took steps further and further. A smile finally came to the boy's face, and his eyes were brighter than they had ever been. The beauty, amazement, life, happiness, and so much more flowed into his swelling heart. Maybe there was hope after all.

The boy might have been mature, but he was still a child. He was clumsy as a child still. Hooves came to an abrupt halt after he ran face first into the rump ( a fine rump it was) of another mare. Golden eyes looked to the lady; his face would have been red if it were not for his dark coat. Pure horror wanted to fall upon his face, but he held everything together. The boy did not let a single fear show on his face. Idiot, bufoon, clumsy, little stupid self. Why... how did you run into someone. Golden eyes darted to the opening behind him, maybe he should run away... No, he can't. "Oh, I am sorry. I was just trying to get away from me home for a bit. Being a so called prince, everyone always expects so much from me." He rolled his eyes and huffed after speaking. Zubari made it very clear he was not thrilled about his social status. Hooves mooved to stand next to the woman golden eyes looked at the world around them. The underwater world that is."I am Zubari. What is it like out in the world? Are there other God's out there, and what makes a God a God? How are they so powerful? I bet they aren't bossed around like we are." He just started talking to the woman. The boy didn't even know her name, but hopefully, she was willing to share her knowledge.


"Talk."
