Story/Art:

Immi pranced on the end of his lead line, his stubby tail flicking in the wind. He flared his nostrils, smelling the unique scent of other equines. Straining towards a large paddock, his owner barely restrained him.The gate swung open, and he trotted happily inside. The gate slammed shut behind him, setting him into a frenzy. He cantered around and around, stirring up the other horses.

Once he tired, he slowed to a standstill, breathing heavily. His bright eyes gazed at the milling animals, not much unlike him. The animals did not look like each other, but still seemed friendly. He took nervous halting steps towards the large herd, afraid of their reaction. He brayed loudly, then started in surprise as the other animals answered him. He wandered through them, brushing gently against them. He stopped to doze in the warm sun. In a few minutes several mares had settled next to him. He whiffed gently, flicking away flies.

A few days later, he had learned the names of several the "horses" as he learned they were called. Morning and Chill were two of those mares. They welcomed him into the herd and treated him as one of their own. He soon forgot that he was any different and fell into the rhythm of the herd.

He's so gorgeous! I wuv him! (Seren had a great idea with the Zorses)

I watched as all the other horses played and raced together in a herd , it upset me that i was different , if only my mother could have mated with a normal horse , then i could be having fun out there with the others. But no fate was mean and harsh to me , it isnt my fault i plea with sadness as i watch the others from my bush, having fun and playing

Thought Stripes as he hid behind the bushes of the plains . Everyday stripes would go out to graze on the lucios grass in the emereld green meadow, and everyday he would go back behind the bushes because one of the other horses would glare at him or call him names . One day one of the elder horses saw what was happening and hurried over to talk to stripes . He said

Stripes you are unique, dont listen to what anyone else says you are beautiful in your own way and it isnt often you come over a horse with zebra stripes is it but it is very common to come over all their coats isnt it , so get up and stand proud like every horse should and you go out there and do whatever you like because you are just like us and you should be treated the same no matter what color coat you have or eyes or breed , every horse has a right to be free , say and do what he, she likes

Stripes listened carefully and when the eleder had spoke he walked over to the other horses and said exactly what the elder had said and they never called him names or made fun of him again , after all he is the stripiest horse on earth ^.^

( hope you like it haha im not very good at stories)

Story/Art: WIP!!

The metal door slowly came down, a making an odd metallic sound. Zache tugged hard at his halter but the two men holding him wouldn't let go. The zebra gave out a an array of sounds, trying to call back to his herd but they were far away now. He was bieng unloaded into a large ship along with many other animals from his homeland, the plains of Africa. The zebra hasn't much of an idea of how he got onto the boat, and why the world outside changed from the docks of Africa, to a strange new place that seemed much like it. There were a few small houses made of stone and wood around and a few larger wooden ones near the water. The two men tugged on the zebras halter as they walked forward, leading him to a large truck with the words "Zoo Animal Transportaion" written on it.

Zache tugged as hard as he could,trying to get free. Finally, just beside the truck, one of the men lossend his grip on the halter and Zache swong free of him, and the head butted the other man. He started running away, he didnt know where but he didnt care. He ran as if one of the lions in the ship was chasing him, his heart pounding as the two ropes connected to the halter waved like leafs in the wind, battering against his sides. He heard shouts comming from the men but that just made him run faster. Zache ran for a long time before he came to small wooden houses and big, fenced areas surronded by large fields. The Zebra collapse into the ground panting heavily. He rubbed his head on the ground, trying to take off the halter. He twisted and turned his head against the ground until he heard a rip and the halter slid off. He stood up and shook his coat and then started wandering aimlessly. Eventually the houses and fences lessened, and the fields grew larger and more wild. It was late evening as Zache climbed up a steep hill, and when he looked down, he saw figures of other equines. Thinking it was other zebras, Zache slid down the hill and raced towards the horses.

A dark grey stallion watched his heard carefully until a figure caught his eye. He turned to the large hill and saw another horse run down it. He gave a neigh to his heard and then started walking towards the figure. He quieted hard to see the horse to be a pinto but as he got closer he noticed that the patches were actually stripes. He stopped dead in his tracks. He had never seen a stripped horse before. The strange horse also had the same reaction.

Zache looked carefully at the zebra, he wasn't like another zebra he new. His mane was long and flowing and his tail was full and lush, but strangest of all, he didnt have any stripes and was the color of stone. The grey zebra made a sound, but it didnt sound anything like that if a zebra. Zache tilted his head to the side in curiosity. The grey zebra then motioned his head towards the herd and the started walking that way. Zache followed. "Who are you?" Zache asked

The lead stallion lead the strange striped horse to his heard when he heard an odd sound. He turned to the Hirse wondering if he heard it. The sound came again and the stallion realized that the striped horse was making that sound. The stallion then turned around and kept walking, but faster this time. One of the hors in his herd used to be tamed, and when the herd found him he sometimes made those sounds too and claimed he had seen striped horses. When he and the striped horse arrived to the herd all eyes were on the stripped horse as the lead stallion called forth a buckskin mare.

Zache was stunned, he was now surronded by more strapless zebras that looked much like the grey one. They were all the colors giraffes, the night sky, stone, and dirt. The grey zebra called forth one of the other zebras, this one was the color of a lion. Zache thought that this lion zebra seemed familiar. Suddenly he heard the call if a zebra. "Finally! Sme one that speaks normally!" Exclaimed Zache and then realized it was the lion zebra that spoke. "What is your name zebra?" She asked. "My name is Zache." The lion zebra bowed her head "Welcome Zache, to the plains of North America. You are a long way from home, and in tire ocean away incat." The lion zebra said.

Story/Art:

Illusion was born into a circus ring, his parents were show ponies. He couldn't really understand what all of it was. One day he decided to go out in the rin an see what all there was. He saw elephants, monkeies, normal horses, dogs, cats, lions, tigers, oh the different types of animals were endless! He was over whelmed with joy to see that he wasn't so weird. Trotting out into the ring he looked around exploring and meeting all the different animals, he skidded to a stop when an elephant walked by "Woah! Your so, so, so huge!" He said amazed. The large elephant looked down at him and smiled "Well hello youngster, who are you?" It said in a deep voice, Illusion smiled "I'm... umm..." He muttered pausing and thinking "I'm Lines!" He said wishing that he had said stripes instead but it didnt matter no. The elephant chuckled "Hello lines, its nice to meet you, i'm Rumble." He said as Lines stood up on his back legs to Rumble could shake his hoof.

When he turned 5 months old the 'ring master' started to train him. He would put a funny hat on him and make him stand on his back legs. Lines didn't get why he had to do this but that didn't mater because he got treats in the end! One day he learned how to dance, it was hard to balance but it was fun. After a weeks he cold stand on a stool and step down. He was fine with everything till one day when he wouldn't get on the stool, the Ring Master whipped him, it hurt and he didn't understand why he did that. Lines backed up ad took off out of the ring and galloped out of the tent wanting to get as far away as possible.

Lines spent months alone, he followed the train tracks not sure where he was going, but he was going. Stopping every day at a pond or puddle he foun to drink and eating shrubs he found along the way. He would spend the nights under a tree or laying in a bush. After five months of being alone he found his way to ranch in the middle of Texas. Not sure what to make of the large farmhound ad pastues full of normal horses, he didn't go near it...at first.

Story/Art:

"I am so scared!" Rage thought to himself. "I don't know what those two legged things are called, or WHAT they are!" There was a short mare standing at a panel looking a Rage, Rage glanced at her and looked back to the 'two legged things'. "Hello there, my name is Rage, um what are those things and what are you?" Rage asked in curiosity." Haha, I am a pony these are horses behind me and those things are called humans, oh I almost forgot my name is Sprinkles."

The pony said to Rage. The humans walked over to Rage and placed a rope halter around his muzzle and brought it back behind his ears and tied it into a knot. They pulled on the line connected to the halter, and Rage walked forward to a gate, as the humans opened the gate, they took off the rope halter and gave Rage a little smack on the rear. "HEY, watch it bub!" He neighed to the humans and ran into the pasture. All the horses turned to him and sat there for a minute and then whinnied in greeting and slung their heads up and down. Sprinkles joined him, and they trotted off in the middle of the horses.

Sprinkles showed him to the hay and the water troughs, he took a sip of water and bites of the hay. Night fall came all the horses included Rage like he was one of them, they all circled in the middle and lay down. ~The Next Day~ After everyone woke up all the horses went to Rage introducing themselves. Rage accepted all of them like they accepted him, a human walked towards Rage with the halter. All the others scattered, the human put the halter on Rage. Rage wouldn't budge, the man started hitting Rage with the line. All the other horses charged towards the man, he hurried and un-tied the halter and jumped on the panel. All the horses and Rage, all looked after each other, but now it wasn't just to make sure they were safe, it was out of love because they were all a family now. <3
