Promise's eyes faded to a light green and his spots of red dissapeared. "Hey, Cloud. How've you been?'' he smiled down at his son, laying down beside him.

Yes...yes...*Frantically jots advice down on hand*

He scootled away a little, and shrugged. "Fine, I guess." Sunny went over to her medicines, searching through them, dropping different ingrediants into a smooth, indentation on a boulder, between the shelves and the pool.

Promise glanced up at Sunny, wondering what she was doing. He quickly returned his focus to Cloud. "Dad has some land now, you should come visit sometime, bud." He smiled and batted his eyes.

Cloud shrugged again, and glanced at Sunny. "So does Talon." He added. "Yeah, maybe ill visit." Sunny flicked her ears back, but continued her work, picking up a cup-shaped plant, and scooping water, pouring it into the dish with the other ingredients.

Promise smiled and stood, looking down at Cloud. "Atta boy. Come soon, your old man misses you!" He walked away with a wink and a flick of his tail, wandering up beside Sunny. "Quiet kid, huh?" he said quietly to Sunny.

She shrugged. "He's still young. He talks more if he knows you better. Him and Talon get along great. Oh yeah, he's still looking to kick your ass." She replied, dropping a bunch of rocks into the mixture, which settled on top of the leaves and berries. She put in two layers of the rocks, and then covered the dish with a wide leaf.

Promise arched an eyebrow thing. "Talon? Hmph. No chance."

"I think you're being a little too confident. Its moronic." She replied, trotting into the crystal part of her cave, and then outside. Cloud settled in the cool sand, closing his eyes.

Promise trotted after her. "I didn't say I would accept his challenge."

She snorted again. "I don't think he'd care. I'm just saying, don't go near him. He won't care what you've got to say. He'll just go for you." She waded into the lake until it was to her knees, and then dipped her head to drink.

Promise nodded lightly. "I'll be getting back home now. I expect to see Silver Cloud soon. If not, when he goes missing, you know where he'll be."

Dots Walked over to Sunny to have a little drink (i think its his first time with water)

She glared after him as he left. When Dots came up beside her, she gently flicked her tail against his side.

Dots smiled and tried to flick his tail against her side

She smiled, nuzzling his neck gently.

He sighed, "who was that horse mama? (i think a whil ago u said he could call Sunny mum)"

She sighed. "He visits occasionally. Just a horse I know, its complicated."

"oh" He looked down. "do you think hes coming back? (i dont no if hes still here)"

(He left, haha)

She smiled fakely, nuzzling him gently, acting like it was no big deal. "Maybe."

He smiled greatly, loving her as if she was his own Mum.

She turned. "Come on, little one." She said softly, starting towards the cavern.

Dots shook his little mane and slowly walked, folloing her

She lay down in the still-warm sand beside Cloud.
