It was cold and dark in the cave but I wasn't worried. As long as Lizzie didn't get hurt I would be okay. I usually wouldn't talk to Sunpearl about my filly, especially since Pepper. She asked and I gave her an answer on what my filly's name was. I could tell that Sunpearl was pretty terrified. I never actually went to sleep. I ended up just watching Sunpearl restlesstly try to find the sensation of sleep. Although I hated that whole herd, I did feel bad for her. She isn't used to being so vulnerable. Me on the other hand is the complete opposite. I heard Thunder and Darkstar talking somewhere is the back of the cave.
"Well they are the most important part! Can I please take Sunny and start my own herd?" Thunder was being annoying as usual and I heard Darkstar hush him. I guess even evil had to sleep. I tried to close my eyes and sure enough it worked and I feel into a gentle sleep for a little while.

I don't think I slept for that long but when I woke up, I saw Thunder staring down at me. It was definitely a little freaky but I stayed calm.
"What do you want Thunder?" I sighed in annoyance.
"You are going to tell me how to take over your herd." He cocked his head.
"That's funny that you think I'm going to tell you anything." I laughed and it obviously insulted him.
"Well it's going to happen Sunny so better prepare yourself." Darkstar had come out of the Shadows and went up to Sunpearl. She was obviously terrified.
"I want yours. Thunder is going to the cave today." He looked at me an Thunder. Both of these horses were equally annoying.
"Can we eat first?" Thunder asked Darkstar and Darkstar sighed in annoyance.
"Fine. Let's go." Darkstar and Thunder left to go get food I guess and left me and Sunpearl there.
It was silent for a few moments.
"Whats Lizzie like?" Sunpearl looked at me. I honestly didn't want to talk to her about my filly. She would probably want to take her from me as well.
I just looked at her for a moment and sighed.
"She's a playful little filly who likes everyone. She's the only one that cares about me anymore besides my friend Sienna." I glared at Sunpearl.
"Does Pepper know anything about me?" I wanted the truth even though I was pretty sure I knew what the answer was already.
Sunpearl shifted uncomfortably by being put in the spot.
"No." She whispered. It was a guilty sounding whisper and I mean I don't blame her! She took my foal!
"Oh." I grunted.
It continued to be silent.
"Look Sunny." I looked at Sunpearl.
"I'm sorry."
