Dixie watched all of the horses before her eyes landed on Tiger. She snorted and tossed her black mane. Macy was staring at West then she muttered "you two should get together..." she glanced at Dixie then head butted her softly in the shoulder. Dixie shook her head "Phantom had better luck than I do" she dropped her head and grazed, slowly nipping at blades of grass and munching them in her teeth. Macy did the same and Scarlet nursed from her mother

West yelped. "Hey! I can't run away, that's not fair." He snorted, looking amused. He walked into the water, drinking, then splashed Phantom back. "At least you can Trot away." West teased, flicking his tail. He then glanced around at the herd, making sure everyone was okay.

Phantom laughed as water covered her face "At least you can still fight back" She replied back "Not very fast I move like a turtle" She did a very slow trot exagerrating how fast she could move at the trot

West laughed. "Great excuse." He teased, shaking his mane. He knew he always lost.... but he couldn't wait to get back to racing. It helped keep his mind off things. A smile came onto West's face as he watched Phantom. "Okay fine. A very... slow... Trot..." he chuckled

|
"Exactly very slow" She grinned throwing her mane around she splashed West one more time with water before trotting off back to the valley's rim. She looked out at the plains knowing that they probably wouldn't move anytime soon since West was still hurting but still she couldn't wait to be out there

West flicked his tail at the splash, wrinkling his nose. He followed Phantom up to the rim and gazed out, looking worried. "Should I have gone after Moon when I had the chance...?" He asked quietly
|

|
|

|
Phantom glanced over at West "No... I think she just needs time going after her would've made her run away farther." She looked back out "She's a smart kid... She'll come back safe when she's ready." She nudged West to comfort plus reassure him about what she said

|
West glanced sideways. "Okay then..." he trailed off, flicking his ears. He was really worried about Moon... and she was the only reason they hadnt moved to the plains yet. West knew he would slow the herd down, but they could still straggle along. If they were missing one of their members... they couldn't leave.

|
Phantom glanced over at West he looked really worried, she felt bad for him but at the moment there was nothing to do besides sit and wait for Moon. She relaxed her head letting it dip down a bit. Phantom looked out on the plains knowing eventually they might have to go out and look for her but was willing to give it 2 more days before going.

West swished his tail and paced back down, going to some shade under a tree and closing his eyes. He didn't know if he needed to rest or walk... he just needed to do something that wasn't staring at the spot Moon disappeared
