AMANI So much to think about since the death of our Sultan..... My head spins. Am I bad luck? My parents died protecting me.... Many others along my path as I have grown up have simply gone... Had they seen the disaster I have become and stayed away? Was this why I seem to be always on my own? Maybe it's all true. Tears being to form in the corners of my golden eyes. Tears and being airborne are not exactly a good mix. So as carefully as I can I angle down, the tears starting to blur my vision. I can not say that my landing was the most elegant ever. I did however stay on my hooves so that counts for something. As I walk, the winds tug gently at my mane and tail. The red sands dance around me as the air swirls and moves about. Do I even really belong here? I had thought that the sands and the heat was my calling. Just like my mother had always believed. The God of the Sun, He has never led me wrong. I am so caught up in my thoughts, that I did not see him until I was almost upon him. "He-Hector?" I question softly. I am not sure that this is his name, as it's been so long since I have really seen him around the herd. Then again, I have been in and out my entire time here as well.... So.... Maybe, just maybe he's been here and I have not. I don't know. "Are you alright?" I try to hide my own tears, and focus on him instead.

AMANI "Oh, hello there Amani." I tilt my head slightly, as his body language screamed otherwise. It was obvious to me, that he was not okay. But none the less he tried to turn the conversation to me. Had he noticed my drying tears? "How are you holding up?" I sigh heavily. "The best any of us can. He, the Wildfire.... He wouldn't want us all to mope around." I can feel my words being the right thing to say.... But the tone.... Well it gives away the fact that I do not feel these words myself. "How are you holding up?" I turn his own question back to him, as my muzzle reaches out to touch his if he will let me. I have to turn my head up to do so. I have not show any affection in a long time. But Hector is a herd mate. We both are alone and dealing with a loss.... A loss that I am not sure we can bare alone. Something inside me longs to move closer to the larger stallion. He stands at least three hands higher than me. But seems to be more of a gently giant. How can I not be there for him when he needs someone. I can, for now put aside my own grief to be there for him. I have always done better, holding my emotions in after all. Now too, could be my chance to shine. My chance to show someone that I am worth something by being there for my herd. It's only then that my golden eyes look at the stallion. Not only is he taller than I am, but he is built much different than I am. I see the horns that grow from his face. The one set of wings that spread from his back. His strength is undeniable. Could he be a good stallion, to have a family with? I mentally shake my head. My eyes and heart have been for Cera for so long.... Am I capable of falling for another, even just for a moment? Do I even deserve the chance at a family?

AMANI Finally, he opened up. I had not expected him to speak so freely. "Gaucho and I were close... We fought together many times, and I feel that if I had not him at my side, I might not have been standing here today." I was stunned by his words, and unable to speak for a bit. But when I finally found my voice I shared my own grief. "Gaucho was there for me when few others were. I met him not long after I arrived in Helovia, after following Cera to the Throat. He taught me, more than I think anyone will ever know about following our patron, and how our faithfulness is rewarded." My days as a disciple and as the diviner had not been wasted. However my faithfulness was yet to be rewarded. "Amani.. I have never noticed how pretty you are." The words surprised me. So much so that I took a step backward. Playfully I pushed the compliment aside. "Do we need to get your eyes checked? Pretty is not a word I would use to describe me. Maybe, plain, or ordinary. But never pretty." It had started as a joke, but turned into honest words. Why would anyone notice me? I am nothing among a herd of supermodels. Not even the God of the Sun's blessing that my mother seems to of passed down to me made any difference. I am just lucky that my coat never gets dirty. Which means it is always easy to look my best, my ordinary best. His wings spread and he lifts off just a few feet, and I wonder if I have offended him in some way. "M'lady, may I have this dance? I look up at him, curious. A dance? What was this dance he spoke of? I have never been asked to dance before.... And then it clicks. Oh, OH! Is he asking? Oh my. The nervousness and excitement flows quickly through my body. "Yes M'Lord, you may." My nervousness is clear in my voice. I do not know where this day is heading. I could be losing my virginity this day, to a very handsome knight who is way out of my league. But I take to the skies none the less, dancing off just a bit, while waiting for whatever was going to come next.

AMANI "You are very beautiful tonight Amani. These stars make your coat shine like the stars above." His words made me swoon. We twisted and turned in the sky, in a airborne dance like I have never made before. My heart was soaring in ways I had never felt as well. That is until his next words brought me crashing back down inside. "I will admit, I have never really noticed you around the herd.. Then again I wasn't around too terribly much lately." I knew he was trying to soften the blow. I was very, well very easy to look over. It only cemented the fact that I feel ordinary. As we land again, his head drapes oh so gently across my neck and withers. The sign of affection is surprising to say the least. His wings wrap around me as well, making me feel safe for the first time since... Well in a really long time. My body relaxes, which is also a first. "Amani, would you care to engage in a different kind of dance? An... adult dance?" My mind is spinning. An adult dance? OH! This dance will be different than the first dance. Almost at once I become shy. "You.... You will have to teach me how to dance.. I speak softly. Would he still want me, knowing I have never danced with another. My body trembles slightly. My head lifts trying to twist and look him in the eyes. Their emotions were running high, her and maybe his judgement clouded. But maybe this was what this both needed. Maybe he could teach her a dance that would take all the worries, fear, stress and every bad emotion she felt away. Maybe, just maybe he could really notice her in a way that no other had ever noticed. That is, if he was willing to teach her.
