Skye smiled and nodded, padding over to Aya. "We are telling the truth. I would say that you're safe with us, but anything can happen. We won't hurt you but we can promise that nothing could happen to you. I hope you understand. But none of us would harm you in any way." She sighed and sat down where she was, so as to not get too close. "You have to trust me." She curled up where she was, it was rather uncomfortable but if Aya was happy.
Aya sighed and looked over at the dog. "So, how did you get here?" She tilted her head slightly. She was curious about them, and glad that Skye had curled up further away. Something about her voice calmed her down, made her feel that she was telling the truth. But when your life is at stake, you have to stay on your guard at all times.
Skye shrugged. "I had an owner once, my parents were show dogs... But I can out different to my siblings so I was sold..." She hesitated for a moment. "They had a boy, about 10 years old... He was my best friend. And I was his, but as he grew up too quickly. Soon he didn't care about me... They moved house and I wandered the streets. And that's when I found Patch, well, when he found me." She sighed as she spoke of her past, a blade cutting through her heart. "I guess you could call it love at first sight. And well, here I am. A balloon." She giggled softly, cocking her head at the mare. "So, what's your story?"
Aya smirked slightly at Skye's last comment. "Well, I was born and raised wild. I was separated from my herd. Humans tried to break my spirit, but I never gave up. The memories of my family and friends kept me going strong. I wouldn't let them get to me. No way was I letting them on my back, eh?" She giggled, smiling warmly at the dog. "As you can see, I escaped. I jumped the fence that they thought was unjumpable. It was a barbed wire fence, don't know how tall... I cut up my legs, as you can see... But I made it." She sighed. "Then I just ran, didn't look back... Just ran. And that's when your Patch found me."
I will be here
when you think you’re all alone
Seeping through the cracks
I’m the poison in your bones
My love is your disease
I won't let it set you free
Til I break you
You’ll never know what hit you
Won’t see me closing in
I’m gonna make you suffer
This hell you put me in
I’m underneath your skin
The devil within
You’ll never know what hit you
I tried to be the lover to your nightmare
Look what you made of me
Now I’m a heavy burden that you can’t bear
Look what you made of me
Look what you made of me
I’ll make you see
