Enjoying the peaceful moment imagining that he was actually flying she sighed softly letting his eyes reopen once more. Things would be easier if he could fly, if he could maybe his brother would come back. Either that or he could find him if he had got himself lost somewhere and bring him home to make mother happy again. Maybe the only way he could bring him back was to talk to one of those important guys...the Gods, ya that was the word. Thinking about how that tree guy had somehow managed to build a boat out of nothing surely he had the power to bring his brother back didn't he? Now all he had to do was find one of them...but how was he going to do that? Mulling over his newest idea the boy failed to hear the soft thud of hooves behind him until a yell drew his attention as more words seemed to be screamed. Whipping himself around he barely had time to see the filly running at him with her wings out before he was having to try and react. What the... before thought had crossed his mind he felt himself thrown backwards as the girl crashed into him. THUDD..

As the colt found himself sliding across the grass all he could think about was the cliff behind him somewhere. No!! He was going to die! Please no! Closing his eyes in case this was the end he felt his limbs freeze and go numb just as his body seemed to go weightless. He was falling.... falling down to die!!!!! He wanted to live!!!! Panic spread rapidly through his body making him completely helpless and scared shitless. In all this ordeal he had no idea where his wings sat in all of this or if he was upside down or right side up. Feeling the wind rushing by him he felt something seem to slow his descent and push him backwards into the side of the rocks knocking the breath out of him and turning his vision black. 

The next thing the boy could remember was the feeling of something cold against his body as the darkness slowly receded. Was this what it felt like to be dead he wondered to himself refusing to open his eyes just yet. He could still hear water and feel it...wait a minute...snapping his eyelids open in panic he could see rock and sky. Was he not dead? Lifting his head a sharp pain shot through his neck making him cringe uncomfortably at the sensation. He was hurt...but he was ALIVE!!! HE WAS ALIVE!! Relief washed over him filling his heart with joy and gratitude for not being dead. If he wasn't dead then where was he? Slowly taking mental stock of his body to ensure all limbs were still attached he moved to get back onto his feet. Aches and pains were definitely there but so far nothing seemed broken which was beyond relief from the young boy. Standing still for a number of moments as his neck spasmed painfully he attempted to take a step or two forward to see where exactly he was. Pulling his wings back to his body he cautiously edged his way forward only to look down upon the same rocks he had been staring at before. Only difference was that they seemed bigger now, either that or he was just closer. Lifting his eyes up he could see more rocks and maybe what was the top of the hill he had climbed before. The wind must have blown him backwards as he started falling and out of sheer luck he managed to land on what seemed to be a rather large ledge jutting out from the hillside. He had not known that it was there but thank the gods that it was! From the top he had not been able to see much but then again he had not gotten too close to the very edge to fully examine what else lay down here. 

How had he ended up here exactly he wondered still a little foggy from when he hit the rocks. Oh right..the girl! What had happened to her? Was she ok? Why had she run into him? Fear twisted his guts as he worried for the fate of whoever it was that had run into him. Maybe they had stayed up top and not fallen, but what if they had? Staring down again to the water he couldn't see anything abnormal so she had to be safe up there...right? Hobbling a little farther forward he turned his head to stare back to the top of the cliff despite the painful protests of his muscles. "HELLO? IS SOMEBODY UP THERE??" He called out as loudly as he could. From what he could assume he had only fallen about 14 feet or so before the wind had caught his wings throwing him backwards. It was a sheer miracle that he had somehow survived this and with only a sore neck and leg oh and maybe back? He was alive that was all he cared about and he wasn't too badly broken so far anyway but how was he supposed to get back up there? He couldn't exactly fly up due to his unfortunate disability of not knowing how... and he couldn't walk up as there was no path...surely there had to be someway. Gathering up his courage he chanced a look back to his body to see if there was any damage. Wincing as his eyes fell upon a medium length gash upon his shoulder that was still oozing some blood he started feeling a little queasy. He had never had anything like this before but it didn't seem too bad really so surely there was no huge worries. Other than the soreness and the slice upon his right shoulder there was only a number of scrapes and some bruising that would surely heal in no time. 

Mother was going to be so mad at him... perhaps he should rethink the idea of trying to get off this ledge. Someone could live on a rock couldn't they?
