River stood at the edge of the grass. Well, hardly stood. She was shaking and her knees were weak and she was halfway laying down. Her breathe was coming quickly in ragged gasps, and she was scared nearly out of her wits.
And she couldn't remember anything. Only vague memories of the last few years came through her head and then a very detailed picture of what she had just gone through. Or had that just been a horrible dream? She felt a pain in her side.
No, it had been no dream. In a desperate attempt to figure out what was happening, to see if what she remember was true, she let out a long, despaired call.
"Niiight!!" Her voice was weak and shaky but she made it as loud as she could.

Night pointed his ears toward the edge of grass and began to trot towards it. He could hardly here the voice but it was there, calling for him. He began to canter over the hill until he could see a sorrel mare. It rung a bell but it had been so long...
"River?" he asked himself. "River?" he said louder so he was including her in the question

River lifted her head in Night's direction, and a wave of excitement washed through her body, causing her to fall all the way.
"Night!" She shrieked, her voice high. She used every bit of strength she had to boost herself up, ignoring her screaming muscles and stinging scrapes. She fast-walked towards him, her vision already blurry. "Yes! It' me!"

He nickered and nuzzled her but then pinned his ears back. "Where have you been m'love?" he said, resting his muzzle on her neck.

River shook her head, not having answered the question herself.
"I don't... I don't remember," she breathed. She closed her eyes, straining her brain for an answer. The fact that she truly didn't remember bothered her deeply. "But I hurt! Oh, Night my limbs ache so badly...."
She shook her head again. "I was beat up... there was this completely white horse... it had these oddly colored, red eyes." The memory was faint but very slowly emerging.

He nuzzled her A white horse with red eyes he shuddered as he remembered the attacks from the ghost of his father. It reminded him of that. How strange.. he said sighing

River opened her eyes and pulled away so she could look him in the eye.
"Is it?" she asked, wondering if he knew more about what had happened then she did. "D'you know something love?"

Angel lifted her head from where she stood near the tree and saw her friend. She pricked her ears, finally starting to feel recovered from her attack. She nickered to River and smiled. Everyone was home again.

River turned suddenly, hearing the sound and smiled slightly, lifting her head and letting out a long whinny. She turned back to Night, then looked back, pawed the ground, and motioned for Angel to join the reunion. Maybe she'd know something about what happened to her?

Angel trotted over to join River and Night. She nuzzled them both and smiled at River. "I've missed you," she said, smiling happily. "How are you?" she asked, looking River up and down.

"Soar," River moaned and rolled her eyes, instantly lightened by Angel's presence. She looked back at Night and nuzzled him, slightly bothered by her recent foggy past.

The ghost of my father was similar in appearance Night said to River, whilst dipping his head in greeting to Angel. But I doubt it was he said, yet totally full of belief that his father wanted revenge

River gave him a blank stare, engulfed in thought. Her mouth dropped a bit as she breathed a quiet "Oh!". She blinked back into recovery and looked back at Night, herself again, at least on the outside.
"That's odd," she muttered and arched her neck slightly. She looked at the two and sighed. "Shall we go back to the herd then? I'm sure Star would like to see my alive, as well as the others."
