Bella casually cantered about the field, tossing her short, crescent-shaped mane. Warlock trailed behind her on silent hooves. She felt a light tug on her tail and furrowed, stiffening as she slowed to a stop. She looked behind her to see Warlock grinning broadly, struggling to stifle giggles. She rolled her eyes at him and plodded on, shaking her head and smiling.

"Good girl! Come nurse please!" She said, nudging the foal under her.

Sniffing carefully, Gemma detected the scent of milk and started to nurse eagerly. She was a bit larger now, her long white legs spread slightly so she could reach under Layla.

"Okay, that's enough!" She said softly. "Would you like to swim sweetie?" She asked.

A smile of delight spread over Gemma's face as she stared up at Layla eagerly. She was, of course, unaware of her tidy milk mustache. "Cun I go?"

"Mmm, how about I go with you?" She said softly, licking off her mustache. "I need to talk to you about something.." She sighed.

Ears swiveled in the direction of her mother, Gemma kept her shoulder against Layla as she plodded towards the pond. As excited as she was to be going swimming, to feel the cool water and know that, in the water, she wasn't helpless, the tone of Layla's voice made her think twice. She sounded sad, Gemma realized, and turned her glazed eyes sightlessly in her mother's direction.

"Mommy's dead..." Layla sighed. "But she asked me to take care of you, and I will!" She said, nuzzling her. "Come swim...".

"Dwead?" what a strange word. It had a finality about it, a suddenness. It was a harsh word, one that Gemma did not want to hear again, and she did not care to learn what it was. "When wull she be back?"

Layla closed her eyes, and lowered to Gemma's height. "Well, she's not coming back..." She sighed. "But, I am your mommy now, okay?".
