A cry in the dark by Murjana

Chocolate Apple was a sweet girl, Pete thought. She always made her deliveries on time, knew to keep to the marked paths, and best of all, she didn't ask questions she didn't want answered. It was a good setup, they had going on: She got for free the moss that he usually charged top dollar for, and he got the sweet apples that couldn't grow on his land. He'd just led her to the edge of his property (it was late and he didn't want her to loose her way) when they heard the scream... "Help!!"

Tried something different here, in hopes of giving my sore hand a break... HA! So much went wrong that it was MORE work than usual! I like how Chocolate Apple (property of Kpop*Foxgirl) turned out, her colours are very easy to work with. But Pete (who is mine) turned out like CRAP! Comic style does NOT like me...

Chocolate apple looked at pete in alarm and looked around herself and carefully turned with perked ears "I know i've never asked you this but... am i the only one that comes to you bog mister pete?" (and roleplaying on here is simple, its like a forum, keep the story going until a new picture is added [by me or you] and we can continue on that one as well lol like a novel that can come with graphic pictures! ^3^ and she does have a fluffy mane huh...?)

Pete grimaced and glanced back at the woods, apples forgotten at his feet. "...." He looked back at her, pawing the ground uneasily, "...No, but you're the only one I was expecting TODAY." He looked up at the sky briefly, giving a prayer to Luna for strength. If he told her to get help, it would be too late and there would be more strangers in his bog. But if he told her to wait or go home, she might try to follow him secretly and end up lost. There really was only one option..."Follow me..." he turned back towards the darkened forest, lighting an old lantern hidden at the base of a tree. "Stay close and watch your footing when the ground gets soggy... there's only one path leading that way, and it's not safe." He lifted the lanturn in his jaws and with a final look back at Choco, took off in the direction the scream came from.

I dunno CBA, do you want to risk almost certain death as a pony?

She swallowed heavily and nodded. she set down her basket and follow the taller colt through the bog. she felt fear creeping inside her as the trees and plants started to look more like monsters in her eyes but she kept up with the colt, watching for his green mane and tail. "Pete... How you always find your way through here? it seems to dark to see anything besides your own hoof infront of you face..."

Pete gave an amused flick of his ear, slowing to edge around an overly large thorn bush, then holding the lanturn higher so Choco would see the obsticle and avoid it's spikes. "...I practically grew up here. When my mark appeared, my family wasn't terribly amused..." Pete gave a slight, bitter grin. "A mucky shoe is an ill omen for the son of a lawyer..." The phrase "you really stepped in it" was thrown around so much, he'd stolen a land deed from his mother's files and run away from home at only 8 years old. But from day one the bog had felt more welcoming, more FAMILIAR than his mother's estate ever had...

Chocolate apple blinked and nodded in agreement to the colts story "at least your cutie mark came with a calling... heh mine was just a simple deed really" she said as she stepped over the spikes and looked at tree beside her and notice a very sad site of a cat's skull behind a tree "i... suppose this what happens when you don't watch for your path... and go pff on your own...?" she said with a slight shiver running through her spine.
