.sanuye.

The young girl led the Hokkiado horse to the Breve Ridges, her hand gentle on the lead rope. If it tried to break, in all honesty it could. She knew what it was like to want to be free. Maybe...Maybe she could tell her new pet her secrets. She wouldn't tell anyone, right? So, she began. My names Sanuye. It means Red Clouds at Sundown in my native tongue. I don't know much japanese, just some weird words. Like, Kage. That means Shadow. I know that much. Anyways...I'm fifteen years old. My mom died last year, and my dad abandoned us before I was born. I have a half sister, she lives her somewhere. Her names Angel, but I guess she goes by Aralyn now. I have a picture of her from when she was younger. My dad left it. Shes really pretty, and I want to meet her but I'm scared to. I'm sorry I'm talking so much, but I haven't really been around others lately...Its nice to get this all off my chest. If you ever want anything, you just let me know with body language. I'm good at reading horses body language, I used to help my grandpa train horses. She knew this was wild cat territory, but she didn't really mind. She had Firefly, and if anything happened to her someone would know by the halter and leadrope and the fact that in illegal horse was here that something had happened to her. Softly she hummed under her breath, then it turned to singing.

I dream of a time
When Things were fine
When daddy loved me,
And mommy was still alive.
I wish I had a sister,
As strong and proud as any
I wish I had a companion, who didn't want me to become anything else
Who wished I'd stay just the same
I wish the devil would quit following me
Cause you see, I'm so tired of him constantly being there,
Hes been taking away everything from me lately.
My mom, my independance.
For awhile he took my freedom,
But I got away.
Cause I wanted to live, just to see another day.

Firefly

The Hokkaido horse continued to go with Sanuye to the wilderness, like a loyal servant. She has been wild all her life, but lack of fear of humans has gotten her taken away. Illegally taken away. She was from Japan, and was one of the few remaining Hokkaido horses. She listened as the girl spoke. Somehow, her voice was peaceful. She couldn't understand a thing the girl said, but it was still so gentle and soft. She looked into Sanuye's eyes for a moment, then began grazing.
