Dagger sharp hooves pounded against the earth, raising little bits of turf as the pair tore across the field. Delicate arabian ears pricked, tail flying like a banner from behind him, Twizzler let loose his energy, kicking up his heels slightly as he gained speed. A slight twitch on his rein from the girl told him no, and he shook his head slightly in protest but slowed at her request. It had been ages since he'd had this chance to run. The girl was too busy to ride him regularily, like she used to, so he treasured the times they did ride together.
Askett slowed her mount to a walk, drawing the reins back slightly and sinking into her seat to tell him to slow. Leaning forward, she touched his ears, to which Twiz twitched his head ever so slightly to the side in annoyance. Grinning, she sat back again, patting his neck. "I miss this, you know?" She said aloud to him, watching as his audits moved back to listen to her voice. "I miss it more then you know. But you can never understand that, can you?" She shook her head. "No, you're just a horse. It is unfair to you that-" Her voice caught ever so slightly, "-You can't be ridden like this all the time. That you can't live life at it's best." A single tear made it's way down her cheek, soon joined by many more.
"I have to let you go."
