A/N:I know it took me long enough to update right? Sorry about that just been really busy lately, I am getting
my horse ready and in shape for the upcoming show year. I got all of the reviews I asked for! I am happy and
I got some really good names! I hope you guys like this chapter! I think I am going to have most of this
chapter Valley's POV so no body gets confused. I dedicate this chapter to Winded Spirit because I used one
of the previous names she gave me and I dedicate this chapter to Perfectpureblood who gave most of the
names and then to Sarakou who gave me the stallion's name and PhantomFan07 for letting me use some of her
names. I did make up some of my own names too. Thank you so much everyone! I hope you like!
Valleys's POV
I looked around the new camp; everyone was setting up his or her new T.P.'s and settling in. I remember the
day of the accident. There was a circle of horses around one horse but my mother Rain scooted me out of
eyesight so I couldn't see what was going on. I remember the last words she spoke to me she told me to stay
here and not to leave until she came back for me. I was scared but I stayed where I was told to stay until a
strange voice said something behind me. It was a silver-gray stallion he said for me to leave that my parents didn't want
me anymore and that was why they left me. I didn't believe it at first but he left and I never saw him again. I
waited for 30 minutes more until I was convinced I wasn't wanted anymore and I was a nuisance. So I
galloped off and never had a thought about returning home. I found this place; I was scared and didn't want
anyone to know I was there so I stayed in a hiding place where I have been living. I liked to hear the other
horses so I stayed there. Then after a few nights something happened I would never forget. Huge light and heat
mixed together spread quickly throughout the land and I saw an Indian he let all of the horses free and I
watched as people were screaming and running away from the light. The light was destructive it made
everything fall and turn black. Then as everyone was gone I didn't see the Indian that saved all the horses. I
thought I should save him so I ran into the light but I ran to where it didn't reach yet I searched until I found the
Indian he was laying on the ground motionless so I bit just his shirt and started to tug on it I pulled and pulled
until the shirt tore off his body. He still didn't get up so I gently tugged on his left braid. He then woke and
stood up he saw me and was frightened at first but then he realized that I saved him. He grabbed my mane and
hoped on my back. I freaked not knowing why he jumped up there but I didn't care at the moment I was
more scared of the light that was getting bigger by the second so I just ran hoping the Indian would stay upon
my back. I ran until he jumped off, I don't know what possessed me to do this but I stopped. I liked the
Indian in a way so I became his pony that day I guess. So the Indian named Little Creek gathered all the
horses he could find but he lost a couple, he said a mare named Moon Shadow and a colt named Boulder. He
gathered all the people that survived and said they were going to set up camp somewhere else so that was the
day I met Little Creek my best friend. All the Indian's are setting up new camp now and beginning in a new
place. But Little Creek mourned because his father Red Feather the chief of the Lakota Indians died in the fire.
So now Little Creek is the new chief of the Lakota's and he took pride in that. I was talking to a horse named
Feather Wing and her filly Little Feather, they were the only horse (and filly) that would talk to me, I was glad
I had a friend. I wish I could see my mother and father again. I wonder how they are doing. I wonder if Rain
had a foal this spring. I wish I could be home again but I also don't know why my mother wouldn't want me
anymore. I was determined to go back home! It was the beginning of summer and Little Creek was going to
"break me in" whatever that meant. He had me in a pen similar to what my father was in and came close to
me. I trusted him and stepped closer to his hand, his hand touched my forehead and he rubbed me telling me
how good I was doing. He laid a blanket on my back; all I thought was why is he putting this padding on
my back? I just figured out he was going to ride me. What! Uh ah! You aren't going to get on my back and
have me carry YOU around! It's bad enough I have to carry myself around but you too! He gently put
pressure on my back with his hands then slowly laid his body on my back. But when he actually got on my
back I learned to like it. I liked the attention and I liked when he praised me by rubbing my shoulder. I actually
started to take pride in carrying the Chief Lakota Indian! One summer day I was cantering upon the land with
my best friend behind my withers, his hair flapping in the breeze and his pride, I could just feel it run through
my body all the way to the tip of my small sculpted ears to the tips of my tail, I ran through the valley my heart
throbbing with love and pride. Little Creek had this aura around him that just had you smiling! All of a sudden
he takes a sharp turn he pulled my mane to the right and I felt his left leg push me over to the right. Where are
we going? We galloped until… could it be?
Rain's POV
"Everyone this is Wild Spirit and this is Raining Glory!" Rain exclaimed
All the horses neighed and whinnied in joy. The names were perfect!
"Now Raining Glory I think I will call you Glory, and Wild Spirit I think I will call you…Spirit you will carry on
the name of you father." Rain said chocking up a little bit at the end
Spirit didn't know anything about his father dieing. Neither did Glory. But that was behind them now and Spirit would be a great son.
"Spirit, Glory I want you to meet the herd we will start with the mares. This is Feather and her daughter named
Shooting Star. Then meet Golden Rose and her filly named Crystal Flame, meet Whispering Lilly and her filly
named Mystery Magic but most horses call her M&M, then the last mare with a foal is Golden Pearl and her
colt named Silver dusk." Rain explained to the colt and filly
"Hi" Glory said meekly
"Hello everyone!" Spirit shouted rather loudly.
He's going to be just like his father. Rain thought, "Then meet Pines Awakening, Silver Bud and Fire
Canyon. These are the older mares of the herd." Silver Bud snorted at Rain thinking in her mind she was one
of the youngest!
"The mares that did not foal this year are Moon's Glint, Rain Drop, Firestar, Heart Wish and Golden Stone. And my best friend from camp Moon Shadow is here to stay in our herd"
"So what do you think little ones?"
"I think Father has a fine herd!" Spirit exclaimed
"I think it is great." Glory said softly
"Well you two I have to look about the herd so you go and make new friends, and Glory don't be afraid to talk to horses."
"Okay Mamma." Glory stated
Normally Rain would have her foals by her side at all times until they got older but she had to do a stallions job
because Silver Dusk and Spirit were too young yet and had to mature before taking over the herd so she had
to have her foals close to other herd members. But she longed to have them by her side but she has been
tougher in a good way then ever before.

Glory and Spirit's POV
"Get away from me Glory!" Spirit said
Glory was glued to Spirit's side because she was afraid to go off on her own.
"I am going to talk to another colt and do you want me to look stupid because you are right beside me!" Spirit hissed
"NO!" Glory shouted then ran away from her brother
"Now c'mon Glory I didn't mean to yell at you." Spirit said felling a little bad
Then Spirit heard rustling in the bushes next to him and then a flash of white sprung out. Spirit closed his eyes and screamed
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"
