"That white spot on her shoulder,I know that anywhere.That's Spirited Dream."Spirit said."I'm going to talk to her,or try."
Stryker had sidled up beside Dream and said to her,"So,chicka.You've been staring at my buffet long enough,see anything you like?Cuz if you do You should grab it while it's hot.Oh,yeah!"He made a hissing noise.
Spirit pulled himself ahead,just behind Dream."Excuse me miss,But I just wanted to ask your name,and might I know your parent's names,if you please."Spirit used 'if you please' to show he was being polite.

Dream snorted as Stryker came near. "You really don't give up do you," she said. She pinned her ears back as usually. She turned her head as she heard the wild horse come to her. She sighed. "I'm surrounded," she mumbled. "My name's Dream. My parents were Spirit and Grace," she said. She wasn't happy about sharing information with strangers.

Spirit half-smiled."I know this might not seem possible.......but I'm your father.You were named after me,Spirited Dream."

"What," she looked at the buckskin stallion. "But what are you doing in this part of the lands pass the mountains," she asked remembering the lands pretty well.

"I was looking for warriors.But it didn't go so well and that's why my leg is bad.That other stallion behind me,he's your uncle,Utah.He and the rest of us protecting or having the same blood as him are in danger.But we are ready,even if we must fight alone."Spirit explained.

"You stallions are all a like. Always in for fights," Dream said. She shouldn't be talking. She was a fighter to. She was always on for going against the rules. She had left home and all.

"I haven't seen her in a couple of years. Since I left to be a wanderer," Dream said. She knew her father remembered that day. That was the first foal of he's that had left to leave on their own. Dream knew her dad would have something to say to her about how she was captured and of being a wanderer.

Spirit had nothing to say about that for the moment but something entirely different."You know why your mother left me,don't you?"He asked solemnly.

"Maybe that's for the best,but I will tell you.We fell in love,she thought I was cute,thought she was two years older than myself and I was just a few months past my second birthday.Well,we experimented,me being a stupid little colt,hardly more,and we got you.Now she'd seen the real me,falling out of love with her,sneaking out on my own,not even close to being ready to be a father.I pleaded with her to stay that I would change,And she said she would,until you were born.I thought you were beautiful,and she let me name you.Being vain I gave you my name.But a few months after you were born,when I was nearly three,she left with you during the night,and knowing she wouldn't take me back,and I never looked for her again."Spirit said,feeling ashamed.He'd never told anyone that story before.

Dream snorted, "She never cared from me. I left when I was a yearling. I couldn't stand her. I knew I'd be better of on my own alone."

"She was vain too then.She wanted a lover,not a father."Spirit said."But I have many foals now.One of which is in the horrible place we're headed too,Thunder.He's my eldest son."
