Cobalt's Pov

My nostrils flared as I surveyed the land. My legs muscles twitched, wanting to run. The horses all around me seemed nervous, glancing over their shoulders looking 👀 uneasily, the lightest movement sparking frenzy. Like the good leader I was, I decided to look around and make sure everyone was there. Then I would go and make sure there were no threats.

Tw-

Did I miss anyone?

I started counting them again double checking and rechecking. Still I ended up on-

Nineteen

One foal was missing.

My babyhorsie.

Blanche

I reared angry and frustrated, those little sneaky sneaks.

"KING!" I roared in anger and frustration.

My father looked at me sensing my panic.

"The forest is on fire son", my father stated calmly.

As if I don't know!!

"You must lead the horses t-

"I KNOW WHAT TO DO!! BLANCHE is MISSING!"

"Well what are you waiting for, FOOL go find her before it's too late!"

I didn't need no prodding, and thundered off in search of my dear little foal.

I sniffed around, my head on a constant swivel. I whinnied loudly hoping to hear my baby respond.

Nothing but the ominous sound of fire crackling in near distance.

Heeeeeee-haaaaaaawwwwww (I love writing this❤️)

I called out again and... this time heard a faint whimper.

"BLANCHE!" I thundered across the burning ground following the sound of her distressed cries.

"HOLD ON BABY! I am coming to save you!"

Looming in the distance was a burning pine tree, blocking the path. Running faster than ever, I steeled my self for the jump and leaped, soaring through the sooty air.

Landing with a magnificent thud, I closed in the distance, seeing a patch of white in the distance.

Jogging up to her, I pushed my head down and nuzzled her fondly, before urging her up with my head.

Weakly nudging me back, she stood on wobbly legs, leaning against my strong legs for support.

I gently urged her along but it was clear that if we didn't move faster, both of us would die.

Suddenly I had a wonderful idea. Stooping down low, I rested my head on the ground and lowered my back.

"Climb on Blanche dear, we don't have much time." I didn't know if it would work but it was worth a try, better than being toasted.

Once she was situated on my back, I instructed her to hold onto my mane, tight because I would be running. Fast.

My baby foal secure, I ran like the devil himself was chasing me.

Sorry for the short update but I'm tired from all the marching I did this morning in the Remembrance Day parade today.  Ugggh, I was so cold and my hands were sore, and I wore out my lungs trying to get my clarinet to make a sound.
