The little girl and little boy splashed in the water of the open ocean. I stood there, watching them. My son and daughter. Mark slipped his arm under mine, holding me tight.
“Mummy look I’m a fairy” the girl cried. Running around flapping her arms as if they were wings. “And I’m a naughty Brownie ready to turn your face green” the boy said. Chasing the girl into the water and splashing her. “One day Kitty you’ll have to tell them. One day they will leave to train, you know Arla is a soul rider and James is a West Hunter.” “I can’t Mark. Here they are safe” Both Mark and I had scars to show our work. I had dark lines spiralling up from my wrists to my torso. They showed where the evil had been within me. Mark had a scar running the length of his face. When I found out that a soul rider’s daughters will be soul riders, I realised that my mother must of been a soul rider too. I searched through all the records for weeks until I finally found one saying “Caren, gave birth to a female, later died”. I traced Caren’s family down to a boy called Alex. Alex’s best friend was a West Hunter called Mark. We fell in love, moved to New Hillcrest and had 2 children (and one on the way). I settled myself down with Arla and James that night. I told a story: “I reached out. So slowly and ever so tentatively. My hand found the door knob in a trice. I started to turn it”

Hello!Welcome to my little space on the large internet where I can share my thoughts, views and fanfics! I am you 'normal' teenaged girl, who loves writing, gaming and horses. I've played Star Stable online since 1st June 2014 and I am currently a level 20 player on Cupcake Valley where I hang about with Frosty Roses and my 18 pixel horses! Disclaimer: All images and anything else to do with this blog are taken in the game Star Stable Online produced by Star Stable Entertainment AB. I have nothing to do with Star Stable and own none of their graphics. But I can tell you it is a great game and you should play it!
