Spirit woke in the early hours of the morning,and looked around,something didn't feel right here.He sniffed the air,humans!Where was Utah..Spirit wondered.He spotted him but did not want to get up,knowing it could give away his position,but he took the risk.

Utah woke up. He looked around sleepily. He saw Spirit slow walking toward him.

He's ears went forward as soon as he caught the scent. "Humans," he said.

Spirit nodded."But I don't know where they are,the smells all around.We best keep moving."Spirit said.As soon as the words fell from his mouth,hoofbeats exploded from nowhere,and he was knocked down by the force of another horse beside his,as well as a thick rope around his neck.

Spirit tried to get up quickly,but the ankle he'd hurt earlier slowed him,and another was placed around his neck.

Spirit was temporarily blinded by a flashlight to the eyes."Ah!"He gasped,standing up and jumping around blindly.When he regained his sight,he saw people on horseback moving all around them."Must be looking for the herd."Spirit whispered,"To bring this many."

"Hopefully."Spirit said.They two soon wore rope halters,and because of the light shining behind them,Spirit saw something intriguing."See that mare ahead?I think I know her."Spirit said,motioning to a chesnut mare with a pale muzzle.

Spirit stared at her for a few minutes,trying remember where he'd seen her before.It then came to him,"I think....that's my kid."He said slowly.

"What? How can you be sure," Utah said.
Dream was getting annoyed with this. They had been out for the last two days, riding none stop, but for the humans. Dream was stuck with Strylar on this trip. She alway acted up from time to time. She was starting to get used to Strylar. He seems to grow on you after time. Dream started bobbing her head in annoyance of the soldier. She could be hard to handle.
