And that was how the west was won
It was here, waist-deep in the waves that she saw her first, a creature so strange and red that she almost laughed. Red? There were chestnuts and sorrels but red? That was a bold and vicious color to present. Yet there she was, meandering down to the water, hooves dipping into the tide as it rushed up to claim the beach once more. Only after the aqua hit her skin did the filly see something truly remarkable, she changed! The reds become soft blues, highlighted green and teal under the suns watchful eye. the blues crawled up her legs and kissed her belly, splattering across her back like paint and Bathsheba gasped. Now that was a sight to see and the patchwork child did a little dance of excitement. "Wow!" She breathed, unable to contain herself. Long, skinny legs pushed through the waves, bringing the little girl forward and closer to the color-changing mistress. Her tail, drenched and heavy, swept up and through to the surface as she began to ascend from the cool water. All sense of common courtesy was lost, replaced with a childish rush of adrenaline she was still trying to get used to. "How did you do that?" She asks, finally coming up to where she could face the mare without being too terribly close. Bathsheba admired the multi-dimension of blues and reds as they swathed together, no telling where one began and the other ended.
