Equid Age: 6
Backstory: (From Gypsy's Perspective ^^)
'' My life isn't as perfect as most may think.Yeah, Im pretty and all but face it I am the color of dirt!'' I snorted bobbing my head up in down in disgust.I turned to the side and arched my head showing my better profile and more vibrant side. Well what adds more to an awesome story than a hot chick speaking of it with a bunch of stallions gawking at you?
'' I remember being in a small group consisting of my father, mother, and aunt... My memory is kind of fuzzy from an accident, but I remember how when I was just a yearling my father....he's alwas prance up to me an smile.Gosh, was he the most handsome equid around with his lush mane and bread chest, and his rippling muscles.he made me proud when all the others would sare at him.I would smile in joy thinking Wow that my dad!'' I said chuckling softly.
''He'd always stand by me and whisper, 'You look so much like your mother Gypsy girl, You even have her deep, glimmering burgundy eyes.'' I sighed as ifelt myself tearing up.'
''That was the day when we stood at a large cliff, we knew we were safe from all the dangers, that the other equids were facing down in the vallies, or the lower mountin ranges....But we would have never figured that they would soon guess, we were here.'' I finally spat out.I could sense i was choking upso i stood there in silence for a minute, finally swallowing down a large lump in my throat my lips gentley parted as i began to speak again,
'' Thats when a piercing noise filled with a heavy scent of gunpowder rang through the air....Boy were we startled. We broke out it different direction soon a rowdy riled up ground swerving around trampling other equid to the ground.It twas a sickening sight to see.Everyone was getting seperated.I was lost until my father grabbed me..'' I said feeling a warm salty stream streaking down my face from my eyes.
''Thats when more shoots came about and there he was, a two legged aiming his gun at my face, my father jumped in front of me and there i sat horrified as i watched the bullet hurl into his chest in slow motion, blood squirted everywhere and in a raspy,c choking voice he spoke to me. ' Run....' I took his advice and leapt away as the others had already lef tus abandoned.I cried and wept as i felt it was my fault he died.'' I broke into a stuttering whisper,
'' I soon found my mother and aunt, when I told them what happend they were so enraed they kicked me out, not allowing me tobe next to any other equids, all ofver a grudge ora fear i was cursed.They all kicked dirt and rocks at me so much soon my coat turned into an unwashable dusty brown, the color of dry dirt. And i cried so often that's why that squiggle goes from my eyes striping down my cheek, that was the riverof my tears...'' i said falling silent.I turned my back and hung my head low resting for a bit and trying to calm down not wanting to let all my feelings out.Finally i gaied the courage to stand up tall again and turn around once more.
''A little after that i wandered around lonsome for about another two years until i came to a large ditch, When i got ready to leap it some patch of a weird plant i have never seen before caught my eye.I walked over and before my eyes could focus it clearly i realized it was a taiL! Not any tail but a familiar tail linknig to a body.....My mother! Then by her was my aunt...and then lie two more bodies, Soon I saw the whole ditch was just a dump, a boneyard for equids that got sutalated by humans! I was traumatized and donefor my whole life ruined.Now i dont get attached to anyone afraid i'll be the cause of their death or soon we will be split apart...'' i wept feeling embarassed and Lackadaisical to go on but i forced myself to.
''So here i am, the rest of my life i am a wanderer.......a Gypsy i'll be forever...'' I sighed as a turned around.With a flick of my tail to tell i was done i knew that i left my mark on this group.They all stood weeping and i too wept with them.some tried to sotp me but i continued on, unraveling the rest of my journey.
Withdrawing figuring i dont know how to make my story shorter ^^ good luck
