A sick stallion

[midnight]

Freedom came to one of the clearings close to the middle of his lands. When he got there he collasped near a brook in a coughing fit. For afew days it had been like this and now he understood why after going through his own memorys. He then recalled that Midnight Moon, his mother, had caught the Gaia before he was born. With another cough he shuddered as he spotted alittle of his own blood on the grass near him. He laid his head at the edge of the brook and closed his eyes.

Munchie had been a loner for quite some time. She missed Freedom Moon and other members of the herd. She didn't mean to take herself a wondering it was just that these lands were huge and one could easily lose their self. She heard a cough, auds twitched to where the motion was coming from and immediately Muchie lunged into a fast gallop. She steadied herself as her pelt grazed against some rocks, letting a little amount of blood leak out. Nothing much. And there lay her loved one. Freedom Moon. Lead stallion of the herd. He was hurt, coughing. Lunging herself onto the grassy bedding she nudged his crown gently. Freedom... It's Munchie. Whats happened? an anxious voice threatened the panic that was urging to leap out of her. The crimson blood spat on the floor made her think. Something really bad must have happened.

[ooc: sorry no good words and a crap post. No muse for Munchie]

Freedom opened his eyes tiredly before looking up at Munchie. He was alittle confused so all he spotted of Munchie was her black coat. With a small smile he spoke " Midnight I thought you had died." He said confusing Munchie with his mother Midnight Moon. He then moved his head and began to get up but his legs would barely hold him. He then spoke once more " When you had the gaia before I was born I guess it carried to me. I'm fine just very tired." He said while laying his head on her back lightly.

Tears wanted to spike her pools as she saw her loved one in this way. Freedom Moon was confusing herself with his dead mother. And he mus be feeling happy she was alive. Yet she wasn't. Freedom, it's me Munchie. Your mother... she's dead. he said that he thought she was dead she obviously this wouldn't come too much as a shock for him. Stilts knelt down as she whispered softly into his auds. Nibbling his mane she smiled and lay comftarbly besides him. But he spoke of the gaia. Everyone had to have heard of it. Sometimes fatal though some managed to pull through and perhaps that was what Midnight Moon had died of. Yet if this disease was in his genes that could make him very sick. Worse death could happen.

She didn't know how to live without Freedom Moon, she never wanted to think about it yet this was serious. She had to let him know she was there for him whenever he needed her and she would remain loyal to his side. She lifted his head onto her back, urging him to get up and lean on her so she could walk a few paces to the waterhole that stood before them. He was there all the times she got ill, never once did he let her down. She had to do the same to her loved one. Whatever it took.

Freedom blinked his eyes afew times and then shook his head once. After he listened to what Munchie said he smiled lightly " I see now and I'm sorry Munchie that I confused you with my mother." He said while then raising his front feet up to try and get up. He leaned on Munchie and let out a muffled groan of pain. He then took afew steps towards the watering hole with the help of Munchie. With a smile he nuzzled her on the neck " I love you Munchie."

[The Gaia]

OOC; This means the Gaia is active again? The original version, does it? I can change its status? Oh what fun... potentially.
