He is running, and it feels different somehow, but he isn't sure. It feels natural. As he crests the hill, two young mares wait. One, the tallest of the pair, is a sorrel with a perfectly diamond shaped star, and a word whispered in his mind told him 'Summer'. The second, a petite dun with a beautiful crescent moon mark upon her brow. Luna. Whirling gracefully, they seem to motion to him to follow, and without knowing why, he breaks into an effortless canter and joins them. As they run, there seems to be no boundary between earth and sky, no difference between them and the wind whipping through their manes and tails. Stopping, the two turn to him and the realization hits him like lightning. The sorrel-Haylie! Then the dun must be…turning, the smaller mare's golden hazel eyes seem to pull him in and for the first time, he sees himself clearly. Reflected in her luminous eyes is the image of a buckskin stallion with rich mahogany hued eyes, a six-pointed star on his forehead. The mare's eyes seem to sparkle with laughter at his recognition and he finds himself falling, the last word echoing like a drop of water, a liquid diamond in his head. Alexis…
"Done."
The mist seemed to fade and the room returned, the chatter of other teens in the background. But for a moment, he still saw the reflection of a horse in her eyes.
"Wha?" he said, looking at Haylie, who was smiling slightly.
"Here." Answered Lexie, rotating the paper and handing it to him in explanation. For a moment, he could only stare in shock. On the page was the image of a buckskin stallion with deep mahogany eyes and a six-pointed star on his brow.
