Mars looked around the field. He saw a small stream at one end of it and lots of area for grazing. It was surrounded by a forest. "Perfect," he said, looking behind him for Dusky.

Dusky trotted up beside him and looked at their new home. She nodded. "Just right." she said and smiled.

Mars smiled and nuzzled her. "So, what should we do?" he asked, lipping her mane.

Dusky shrugged. "Whatever you want." she said and nuzzled his neck.

Mars looked thoughtful for a moment then nuzzled her again. "Cant decide," he said. He heard something in the bushes near them and swiveled his ears toward the noise.

A coyote emerged from the bush. At first, it looked startled to see the horses, but then an evil look came over its face. It sat down and howled, but was stopped in the middle of its howl. Mars had spun around and kicked it in the neck. It flew a few feet and landed on the ground, dead. Mars pricked his ears, listening for any others.

After a few minutes of silence, Mars relaxed. "I think they're gone," he said.d

Mars followed Dusky's gaze. He looked suprised. "Dad, what are you doing here?" he asked.

"I'm here to talk to you," he said and sighed. He looked at Dusky "Dusky, hello," he said. He returned his gaze back to Mars "You needed to tell your mother and me where you were going," he said calmly and looked at Mars' form "You may not always be as lucky with enemies," he said

Mars snorted. "Dad, I'm 2. I can take care of myself," he said. "I promise." He nuzzled Dusky.

Dusky sighed quietly and flicked her ears listening. She nuzzled Mars back.
