from caring comes courage..





It was official, I needed to learn how to fight. If I didn't know how to fend my family, then what was the point in having one? As Apollo said, "You would want to shed some blood to keep your family safe, wouldn't you?". Yes, I did want to learn how to fight. I needed to keep the World's Edge safe from harm. That was the least I could do for them.
My clefts carried me into a meadow, surrounded my tall pine trees on all four sides. This was the perfect battleground. I glanced around, catching pictures of what I might need to be aware of. I could see a few holes and then the fact that the trees had many sharp branches to watch for. Then there was the melting snow on the ground that would make it much harder for me to keep my balance.
Sighing, I threw my muzzle to the air. "Can someone teach me to battle please!" I called out in the middle of the terrain. I had my spirits high for someone to come and teach me how to spar, for I was hopeless at sparring.
Yes, I did dislike fighting, a lot, but if it was to protect my family, I would do anything. I didn't care if I killed the beast for messing around with my home, I would not let them hurt my loved ones. I wasn't the one you would suggest to really fight with because I was so short and stubby, but don't underestimate me. I wasn't as hopeless as I seemed.
Waiting for someone to come and teach, I paced in a circle. Was this going to come out as I planed? Would I come out alive? Well, of course I would. For Gods sake, it was only going to be a teaching spar! I hope. What if someone comes out and tries to kill me instead of teach me? What if they rip me to pieces! I don't see why I'm so worried, I had yet to meet anyone like that, and hoped that I wouldn't meet anyone like that.
I knew that most folks around here were helpful and very nice. I also no one would try and kill a innocent little mare. But what if I was wrong? Oh so many 'what if''s to answer! And they just kept rolling out of my mouth.
I shook my dome, hoping to get rid of the nasty thoughts. My orbs took to the sky, praying and pleading. Oh don't let me get hurt mother, please, I'm begging you. But what if she wanted me to get hurt? To knock me into place where I would only hurt if it was needed? Where I didn't reject fighting so much?
I stopped pacing, knowing I would need to save some of my energy up for the training. My muzzle lowered and I decided to graze while I waited. I would need some protein anyway.




Friendly teaching spar with Andreas.
800 words max | No magic or companions | 3 attack posts each + closing defense | Andreas can attack first.
Setting: Clearing with tall pine trees on all four sides. The moon shines light down on the Earth where you are able to see very clearly. Slight fog slithers around and there is still mud and snow around on the ground in some place but green grass grows showing that Birdsong is in the air.
