The Sun underground

"Did you not hear me, slave? I said that if you acted up again I would kill you!" Hissed a gryphen. He was a deep green-feathered male with glinting evil eyes and a horrible temper.

"I heard you perfectly well, but your threat does not scare me. You know just as well as I do, that if it weren't for me you would be dead by now, also, I am your only 'slave' right now. So, if you'll excuse me, Rashill, I have work to do." Said a unicorn mare eminently coldly.

The sun had just peaked over the first grass wrought mountain of gryphen territory. The mare looked out of a small-carved hole in one of the caves she was visiting. She had a dark black coat and an ebony horn. Blue eyes shone on her intelligent head as she enviously watched two foals playing in the vale territory below her.

" Fajera, what are you doing?" Asked a kindly voice. The black mare spun around to face the speaker. It was a completely white stallion with a crystalline horn. He was chained to the wall of the cave with impossibly tight bonds. Fajera answered, bored,

" Watching the vale. " The old stallion smiled,

"What, again! What do you see this time?" asked the white stallion.

"Same as always… dull weponed foals, they go somewhere for a while, then they come back warriors." Answered Fajera bitterly.

" Just like you always wanted to?" asked the stallion.

"That's never going to happen, " answered Fajera.

"Bah! Ye of little faith!" accused the stallion.

"It's not like I haven't tried, Faro!" answered the black mare.

"That was a long time ago!" yelled Faro.

"What do you suggest I do, try again?" asked Fajera.

"Yes! You could escape any time you wish, and yet you stay here, your so stupid- Fajera, you have a chance to be someone, don't waste it!" yelled Faro. "Don't make the same mistake I did, you know the way out, why don't you go!" he continued softer.

"Come with me." Insisted Fajera.

"No." said faro. "Fajera, there is 1 power on earth that could break these bonds, but there is no power that can break our friendship."

" There is no cure for a broken heart,

there is no rime that can mend the tear."

Sang faro quietly.

" There is no hour I wont think of you,

nor is there a time your voice wont do."

Continued Fajera.

" And when the time comes that I,

must say goodbye to you…"

They both sang.

" I want to hold on,

want to be next to you,

Don't want to cry,

Just want to feel you sigh.

I want to hold on,

Want to be next to you,

Not goanna cry,

Because there's nothing I cant do with you.

I'm goanna live ,

Goanna make our dreams come true,

I'm goanna hold on,

Because I want to be with you."
