& Jemaine
Bright dead foilage clung to the little blue body the wriggled in the chill of autumn. Audrey left her body still, flush against the ground, with her eyes clenched shut. This was it. This was all she had left. The bay roan knew this part of Auster better then any other part. She too had been born here, and spent her first wobbly days with her mother and brother here. Oh, Aquila. She thought quietly, feeling the beautiful mutant move against her hind legs. Now was her time, wither or not she was ready.
Quickly she tossed her head away from the dying browns and back up into the sun tainted air, her main floating as it fell back to her neck with the forces of gravity. Still she faced away from her child, terrified to unite herself with the precious demon. She could smell him, or rather the blood that stained his coat. She could smell the leaves as they became wet with him. A light sigh was emitted as she opened her eyes again.
Carefully she pivoted towards the small twitchy child, glimpsing his color before anything else. Oh, baby, she exclaimed. A picture of the child's father clouding her mind. His mane and tail bore the same bird feathers and his color the same mutant oddity. His face was marked as hers was, two unconnected white marks that took over the place between his nose and eyes. My child. He squirmed as she spoke, and although terrified of him, she felt an overwhelming need to reach out to him. She needed to comfort him in hope he would, in return, comfort her.
She didn't have younger siblings, and this was her first born; Audrey worried she wasn't prepared to take care of his chilled, wet, shivering body. Warmly she licked him, her mind remembering the long first winter when this was all her mother could do to warm her. We're going to be okay, Jemaine. She whispered to her baby between licks. We will be okay.
happiness hit her, like a train on a track.
