Shadow muttered something in the ancient language and Stone Image turned and trotted off towards the stabels.

Carrie stopped Hero. He needed to rest. His mind was in a mess. She dismounted and moved to look him in the eye. He snorted. Everything going through his mind went into her eyes.

Two hours later it was near sunset now it has been a week since he got back. Protecting the forest, ptolemys gate, and the path way it is not as easy as others would think. He had sat down only moments early on the porch. His blue eyes gazing out at the woods. Nathaniel is upstairs he had gotten a book from his brother's room. He just does not known his older brother knowns about this.

Carrie lead Hero into the stable. She put him into his stall and made sure he had food and water. She would brush him down later. Hero snorted and nuzzled her. She laughed and left him. She locked the stall and went back to the house.

Shadow opened his eyes eyes and looked over to her. His eyes seemed distant somehow he looked back out to the woods.

Carrie went inside. She went to the living room. She muttered something and her drawing book and pencils appeared. She sat in a chair and started to draw.

As a gentle breeze began to blow Shadow had stood up when he saw her coming. When he looked to her had she noticed his eyes. Sometimes they seem a dark blue but when he looked to her. . Something about the way his eye had flashed with a fire that seemed to burn in them. The icey blue in which they where a quick flash. One that often left a burning imprint in the mind of one. Haunting gaze that seems to pierce deeper than any word could. Not kind but not cold, nither cruel or sad. Emotionless was the gaze that was given. Yet something was there like burning white fire. With a quick turn he walked inside no longer looking to her. For sometime they have not spoken he has been often gone. It has now been a month...time seems to be flying. With a sudden change rain began to pour down yet this seemed to not be rain at all. Yet it was rain...the gaze that cannot be forgotten.

Carrie sighed. She just needed to think. She stopped drawing her colt, dog and cat together and set her sketch book down. She needed to think. She just couldn't now for some reason.

Looking away from her if she had not met his eye at the time. Lucky she can be counted easily. " BROTHER!" Nathaniel called from up stairs. Shadow turned away from her and walked up the stairs. After three steps he vanished. His brother needed his help that was enough to known.

Carrie sighed. She leaned forward and rested her elbows on her knees. She put her forehead on her hands. Something was bothering her badly. She knew soon enough she'd have to say something. But, knew for a fact that she wasn't alone in what was bothering her.

It was not to long after when Shadow walked back down the stairs. He stopped and looked to her " Your bothered " he stated as his blue eyes looked calmly at her.

Carrie sighed. " I don't want to explain whats bothering me. To really explain it I need to have the friend of mine who has the same thing bothering her" she said. She raised her head and looked to him. She really didn't want to explain it.

Shadow eyes gave no hint as to anything not even telling if it regestered with him. His blue eyes left her and focused on something outside. A hawk was perched in a tree it's eyes met his. Perhaps he told it something perhaps it told him something. Maby it is nither of these but it seemed to nod its head before spreading wings and takeing flgiht. Shadow had nothing to do for awhile now or at least it seems that way.

Carrie got to her feet. " I'm going to go check on Hero" she said. She walked out the door. She went to the barn. Hero's stall door was wide open. She ran to it. She saw he wasn't there. She ran out of the barn and started calling him.

Shadow has a feeling his stallion had ran off as well. Yet never once has it crossed his mind to worry about it. Not considering her words for to long he simply walked outside. With ease he leaped up onto the overhang that covers the porch. Sitting down there he let his legs dangle over the edge while he crossed his arms behind his head and layed down. Stareing up at the sky able to hear her every words. In the mean time Stone Image's long strides carried him off after the runaway colt. 'Pathtic colt running off foolish he can't survive out there on his own even if he tried '. So perhaps the black stallion is not the friendlest soul alive.

Carrie wanted to go looking for her colt. She needed him. She looked up to him. " Could I borrow a horse to go look for my colt?" she asked. She was worried big time. She needed to go find her colt. She knew how badly Hero could get spooked or hurt without her. She really needed to find him. She'd do anything to find him. She'd even sell her drawings. She'd even sell her other pets to get him back. Tears welled up in her eyes. She needed her colt badly.

" Stone Image is looking for him " Shadow said calmly as he turned his blue eyes to her. " Come we can look for him " he said absent mindly. Takeing her hand into his own the gesture may mean more to her now. Leading her to the stable " Take Secretariat " perhaps the name and the fact it is indeed the one and only Secretariat this may shock her in many ways. . The horse that set records perfect conformation the idle for breeders. Twenty five foot stride! Shadow let go of her hand as he went about saddling Secretariat up. Shadow led Secretariat out to her while he went and got Citation another legendary thorougbred. He saddled up the bay stallion . " May as well go get him before dark " Shadow said looking over to her. Unaware that this may shock her greatly. Other stalls had the names on them. Funny Cide, Ghostzapper, Man O' War, Native Dancer, Personal Engign, Ruffian, Winning Colors, Silver Charm, Smarty Jones, Tiznow, Seabiscuit, War Admiral and many more.

Carrie easily saddled Secretariat up. She lead him outside. She was very surprised to see the horse still living after all these years. She grinned. " We better find him. If we don't then I guess I'll have to settle on buying a new colt" she said. She had her helmet in her hand because she had been planning on training with Hero anyways. She easily put her helmet on. " But, I have to say I'm surprised that you own this guy. I've been wanting to see him ever since his first race" she said. But, she knew not to get emotional now. She needed to be strong enough to find her colt.

" I own all the ones that are legends " he said with a faint smile he had his way of getting them in puplic. Secretariat followed her tossing his head up slightly. Citation blew gently out of his nares ears flicking back and forth. " Lets get going " he said already sitting astride Citation. The bay looked to the fiery chestnut then back ahead. Both stallions picked there feet up once there riders were ready they would leave. Citation wanting badly to just get going as did Secretariat both glad to be out of the stalls and finally get to run more.

Carrie sighed. She easily mounted Secretariat. She put her helmet on just to be safe. " How long until it gets dark?" she asked. She needed to know so they could hurry to find Hero. She knew the poor colt was afraid of the dark. She had to find him. If she didn't he'd get spooked badly and get hurt. She would need her colt. But, if he was hurt she'd ask him tomorrow to use a horse to work on her jumping skills. But, her colt was still in training to be a racer so she couldn't use him for her jumping skills.
