The boy was getting older and older by the day. His body started to fill out, and he did not have the awkward foal looking body anymore. His horns grew well above his skull, and his mane and tail floated to longer lengths. Long legs made him tower above most that were his age. Kuuma seemed like she was growing larger by the day. Growing up was a bitch. He could not get away with things as well as he used to. Adults judged him more and more he was never the good child. He was the one under scrutiny and the one who was never good enough.

On this day the chocolate boy decided to wonder the edge. He spent a lot of his time getting away from this land. He never spent his time wandering through it. When he was a younger foal, Zubari was always looking for a way out of this hell hole. Sneaking past the Warriors was always a fun thing to do. Those days were long gone. With the towering size of the boy, most believe that he is older than his actual age. His mind flickers through memories that he will never get to re-live. Innocent, fun, hate, passion, and play were all things that came to mind. Those were all gone. Tuttie was gone, mother was gone, and Father the so-called ex-king was with his REAL family. Maude Had everything he didn't.

She was so perfect. Every inch of her body was beautiful, and she was loved by her family. Her father was always there for her. He would do anything for her. Resentment was always on the back of his mind, but those thoughts were always clouded and pushed away. There were other feelings for Maude that he could not explain... The boy shook his head getting out of those deepened thoughts. Blocking the emotion from his face and locking his feelings away in his heart.

Kuuma was off hunting again. Zubari knew she would come back to him once she was done, but he would not sit and wait for her. Walking down a winding path, the sun warmed his gorgeous chocolate pelt. His golden eyes looked to see prints of another in dying ground. Winter was approaching, and the land hinted at a brutal weather. Sighing slightly, muscles moved and shifted under his gleaming pelt. Black hooves covered the smaller tracks of whoever followed this path before him. Then golden orbs locked upon the beautiful creature in front of him. Her cream bodice sparkled in the sun's rays, but her normal radiant glow was gone. Something about his little ray if sunshine was off. For a moment a frown found its way across his features, but it was quickly absorbed off his face and locked away. Trotting to catch up with Maude, the spotted boy attempted to keep the same pace. His body was already starting to tower over the girls. Blackened spots covered his rich mahogany coat and bright golden eyes looked to over the Maude. "A penny for your thoughts? You do not seem your normal self." a sheepish smile fell across his maw. He was not sure how to go about this situation. Zubari never really tried to care about how others felt. Except for this moment...

"Talk."
