Moon wasn't sure how long the journey would take so she just offered "We'll be as quick as we can, we won't take our time. Pyrite has plenty of energy anyway I doubt he'll tire" she chuckled at the end.

The lead mare kept her gaze serious. "I know that, but what of you? You say you would like to accompany him." She didn't want to critisize the mare or anythingl ike that, but she feared that might slow them down a wee bit.

"I need to show him the way, he doesn't know how to get there" Moon said glancing from the lead mare downwards at Pyrite for a moment. She turned her eyes back to the lead mare waiting..

The lead mare sighed. "Then I wish you safe travels and luck on your long journey." She gave the hint of a smile. "Take care of little Pyrite. We will be here for you when you return."

Moon nodded and said to the lead mare "I will, I promise". She nudged Pyrite away from the lead mare and back down the slope to where they had left the messenger horse standing by the river.

Pyrite looked around Moon and grinned at the lead mare before obeying what Moon was donig and trotting off back towards the messenger horse. He neighed happily and said,"We can go!" He looked at Moon. "Can we go, can we go now?!"

Moon smiled and nodded at the messenger horse. She turned to Pyrite and said with a smile "Yes we can go now". She felt a bit excited, it would be nice to meet Pyrite's father, she had heard stories of him.

The messenger horse, a stallion, nodded and turned, ready to go. He made sure tha the other two were ready as well before trotting off. He would lead them back unless they knew the way. Pyrite whinnied and caught up with the messenger stallion. "Hey! So, you know my dad?" The horse looked down at the small foal and smiled a wary smile. "I dont' know him, but I've heard of him. He is the wisest in these lands." And so that began. Pyrite hopping around and pelting the stallion with questions while the stallion answered them.

Moon followed behind Pyrite and the messenger stallion at a trot. She laughed quietly to herself as Pyrite bombarded the stallion with dozens of questions about this,that and the other.

Pyrite continued to ask questions to the stallion. The understanding young messenger smiled and continued to answer them, not really showing any bit of wariness. After a bit, Pyrite gave the stallion a break by going back to Moon and telling her everything that he learned, not thinking that she might've heard it as well considering they were right in front of her.

Moon smiled to herself and nodded and gave the occasional "yeah?","wow" or "really" at what Pyrite was telling her, she had obviously heard it as the messenger told Pyrite in the first place but she acted like it was all new to her.

Pyrite whinnied softly and snorted with pride as he showed off how much he knew. Up ahead, the messenger trotted on, pretending he didn't hear. Pyrite stopped and so did the messenger. Hoofbeats were heard, coming from up ahead.

Moon stopped a second after the two others almost crashing into the messenger. "Sorry" she muttered stepping backwards. She pricked her ears listening to the hoof beats until suddenly they stopped.

Pyrite whinnied with fear when he saw the stallion come into view. Thankfully, the messenger stallion was quick and reared up at that moment, causing the stallion to crash into him. He looked backwards at a mare, who was just coming into view. Pyrite nudged Moon and pointed with his muzzle.

Moon had at first been staring at the stallion alone but then when Pyrite nudged her she saw Galaxy and her face brightened. She didn't know if Pyrite remembered Galaxy or not, he had been young when she was still with them. She trotted forward over to Galaxy and started to nuzzle her madly.
