As I cantered along, I was getting closer to my home. I stopped just outside of the borders to wait for Boon Boon, my fist mare. As i did, I made sure I was well hidden in the treeline I did not want tThe Brolga to leran that I was close to him now.

I cantered along, following Throwa's sent. I found him hidden in the trees. "What are you doing in there" I asked confused

I looked over at her. "See how the snowgums almost hide me comppletely?" I asked. "We're near The Brolga's territory and I would rather he did not see me. I'm not redy for a fight with him yet." I snorted at the thought. Sure I was strong, but not that strong, not yet anyway. "Make sense?"

"Yeah I guess" I said "So what are we going to do know?" I asked

"Well, I suppose we're goign to have to mvoe quickly but as quietely as possible. Also I have to keep an eye out for a particualr bird, the Currawong because if he sees us, The Brolga will know. The bird works for the Brolga as a spy," I replied.
Looking around I noticed we ewere at the narrow end of Narrow Neck Valley. "Its a bad thing that its spring right now."

I was starting to wonder if this stallion was sane or not. "OK" I whispered and stood behind him ready to move after him. "Why is it bad if its spring, I love spring all the baby birds and all" I said, still whispering.

[is he sane??? of course he is]
I snorted. "Spring is good mostly. The only threat to me in spring happen to be challenging stallion s like the Brolga nd of course Men. They want us to tame us, and we dont want that to happen. Come on." I started to walk down the valley, my every sense on edge. I stayed on the grass, not leaving any tracks. "Try not to leave tracks," I told her.

"And of course to me" I said "Remember force breeders" "And my mother taught me how to walk on rocks to hide my tracks" I said stepping on the rocks so my trail would be hidden by all.
OOC: I know that, but does she!!

"Force Breeders? I'm not one," he muttered more to himself than to her. Louder he said, "Thats good, it helps a bit."
Then he heard the sound he most hated. The Currawong's call. "Oh great," he muttered, stopping to hide quickly. He looked out at the sky and saw the bird coming down towars us.
"Over here, Sire! On the Ridge!" shouted the bird.
"NOw I'm in for it!" I snorted annoyed. "Theres the bird I told you of."

"I know your not one" I whispered and was proud of myself that I already knew these things.
"Over here, Sire! On the Ridge!" shouted a bird.
"Now I'm in for it!" he snorted annoyed. "Theres the bird I told you of."
"I guessed, what are you going to do now?" I asked hiding behind him.

"We're going to have to run for it. Having the bird up there's not so fun, otherwise its easy to escape the grey stallion. I could do it anyday if it weren't for the bird." I flexed my muscles. "We have to get out of his territory. Wont take long, I know where the nearest place to go is. We have to get to Yarraman's Valley, its a fair way away, though."

Currawong
"Just past the rocks Sire. You're nearly tehre!" shouted the bird.
Thowra
"Oh great. Sure enough I heard the sound of hard hooves hitting the rocks around the other side. Then a grey head appeared quickly followed by a massive horse.
"This is my territory Thowra. HOw dare you intrude!" snarled the grey.
"Run for it," I yelped, jumping into a gallop. "Stay by me Boon Boon."
"Go get him Sire!" laughed the bird.

I heard him yell at me to run, and I did faster then ever before. The knee-deep grass covering the soft ground as I flew along, not knowing where I was going or caring. I knew that steel-grey stag, he had killed my father. I ran trying to rid the memories from my mind, not seeing where I was going.

I galloped beside her then i swung into the trees. "This way!" I could see the Brolga and he had looped around infront of our old path.
"Stand and fight Thowra, you coward!" The Brolga chuckled.
"When hell freezes over, Brolga!" I retorted, moving quickly.
