ooc: Ok. Here is what I said:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Thank you." Darki replied simply. "My mother named me." It took Darki a while to reply to the next question since there really was no answer. "Some horses want others to do things for them, so they buy slaves to do so." They walked through the field and came to the forest. It was nice and quiet there and Darki loved to walk through it. That was where her master had been with her. She missed her master quite a bit, but wanted to help Lunar very much.

As they walked into the forest Lunar smiled. "My mom named me to i was born on a lunar eclipse" She smiled at the memory of her mother. Lunar looked at the trees and listened to the sounds birds and small critters made.Frowning as the memory of the last time Lunar saw her mother popped into her head. "So i guess im ur slave now" Lunar looked up at Darki hopeing she would say no but knowing different.

"That is nice. I miss my mother and father very much though they did not cave for me." Darki had often thought about her parents an how they were doing without her to care for them. "Well, not exactly my dear." Darki did not know how Lunar would act when this news was reported to her, or what she would think. She just knew that Lunar needed some manners and soon. Very soon. 'As soon as we get home, I will start teaching her." Darki thought.

Lunar perked up as Darki said she wasn't her slave excatly. "Really" She said excitedly. She hoped Darki wasn't lying to her. Maybe Darki was going to let her go. She tossed her head up in excitment. Lifting her head up and prancing around Lunar felt much better about the fact she was following Darki. Letting out a short whinny Lunar started examining everything in sight. She was in such a better mood.

"Yes. I am not letting you go yet though young one. You need to learn more manners and respect first." Darki could not believe that she had actually told Lunar that she was not her slave. She had to set things right. "You will have the responsibilities of a slave and be almost exactly like a slave, but you are here to be taught. Not to be used." Darki knew that this young mare would not respect what she had said, but it was worth a try.

Lunar sighed and her head drooped again. She really couldn't believe what was happening to her.Lunar padded along at a slower pace. Not wanting to follow Darki she thought about running away. It seemed so unbelievable to her that her father betrayed her and she was a slave. Lunar's ear twitched slightly and her tail swished in agitation. She really didn't want this life and she was determined to some how get out of it.

"Don't be sad. You will be a free-roamer when I am done with you. We are not close to the herd yet, but we are getting closer. Don't lag or Lunar, you will lose the privilege of being called by your name. Don't even think about running away young one. I know that you are thinking of that." Darki knew she should comfort the poor mare, but she needed discipline and manners. This was the only way to teach them to this one. She needed the time of walking through the forest to make better friends with this young one. "You know, I was a slave as well once." Darki decided to make friends so that Lunar could understand what was going on better.

Lunar looked up wide eyed. "Really" She asked while pushing into a trot to catch up to Darki. She wouldn't have guessed that Darki had been a slave at one point. "Was he mean?" She knew from the manners her mother taught her she shouldn't ask this question but she was curious. Lifting her head once again Lunar's ears where up all the way intently listening to Darki. Her tail swished in anticipation of the answer.

"Yes. Really. The first one was mean. But the second one was very nice and took me from 'the rock' and taught me just like I am to teach you. I made a promise to my nicer master that I would help slaves like yourself to become free." Darki could not beleive that she had actually answered this rude question, but if it pushed Lunar to become friends with her, she would answer them all.

Lunar smiled. 'so she really is going to help me' Lunars trott became bouncy and graceful. "I dont know how to thank you" Lunar looked at the surrounding trees and hoped someday she could run free in them like she did when she was free. She remembered when her mother and her would gallop throught the forest and her father would join in when they reached the field. She would play fight with her father and graze with her mother.

"You just need to come with me. That is all." Darki walked on, listening to Lunar's thoughts and felt bad about her own past. "You are lucky you had such wonderful parents." Darki flinched when she said that. She did not like or love her own parents because she never truely knew them. She just tended to them and took care of their wounds. That was it. She wished that she could have truely knew her parents.

Lunar looked at Darki. "Parent" she said in a low voice. "I have a wonderful parent" She looked at Darki through hurt eyes. "My father betrayed me remember" She said just a bit snappy. Her gait became irregular and choppy. She thought of the last time she saw her father. [italics] "Go to the rock and your mother and i will meet you there." He had smiled down at her. "Okay" She replied as they walked out of the field and into the forest. "Hey dad why do they call it the rock?" She had asked. He had just looked at her and smiled. "Becouse there is a big rock there where horses meet." He had walked her out of the forest then turned around and siad goodbye. He galloped off back to his herd never to see his daughter again.[/italics] Tears stung her eyes as the memory played in her head.

"No he did not. He just probably was going on a raid and wanted to keep you safe. There are many nice masters, though there are some cruel. You are very lucky you did not get a cruel one. The past will pull you down and deceive you. You must forget about your past and think about the present and future. That is the only way you will be able to become a good-mannered horse." Darki hoped that this speech might influence the young mare, but was not sure because of the snappy way that she had just reacted.
