I glare at Ava. "Yes! She is Hermosa's foal." I dismount Hermosa. And walk over to the body. "Hey," I say . A woman looks up. Her face is streaked with tears. I get a closer look at the body. A young man, with a bullet wound in the chest, and one in the head. "Omg, I am so so so sorry." I whisper to her. She says nothing, only nods and starts crying. "Was he your husband?" I ask her. "Yes" she says at a whisper. He was so proud of his sons. They are in the war. And when they come back they will meet a poor woman, and no father to greet them." I shake my head. "They will come home to a powerful woman, and a tall beautiful stallion." The woman looks confused. And I hand her Colt.
"I have not named him, Please take good care of him, and you will have to train him but his mother is a very well trained mare, This is his mother in fact," I point to Hermosa. "And so long as he is trained well he will become a very proud stallion." With that I leave the stunned woman with Colt, and mount Hermosa. Leading the prancing Filly's behind me I trotted off. "Darn," I mutter to myself. "Can't believe that Percy cares that much about a stupid mare." I reach a small farm house, and an older looking woman looks up. "Oh hello dear." she says to me. I glance from her house, to a well looking barn. "Hey." i say. She smiles. "Nice looking mare. What's her name?" "Hermosa, and I see you have a barn. I myself am looking to get rid of my filly's here. And you look like the perfect person to take care of these two." I dismount Hermosa. And lead The black filly and the golden filly around for her to see their legs, and gaits.
"Well," Says the woman. Looking flustered. "I would love to have them here on my farm. How much?" I shake my head. "No no no, You can just keep them. I have all the horses I need." "Well, thank you then." says the woman, "My name is Emma." "Mine is Ray." i say. Emma nods. "Well Ray, come with me and let's get them settled." After The black filly and the golden filly are in their stalls. I hug Emma goodbye, and mount Hermosa. Leading the Chestnut filly. "Forgive me for asking," says Emma. "But I have to know. Where did you get such well bred foals?" I smile. "Hermosa does all that. I just leave her and my others alone, she will lead them away and come back in foal." Emma looks surprised. "Wow."
